Barotrauma | A Definite Buy

  • Barotrauma is a 2D co-op submarine simulator - in space, with survival horror elements.
    That’s a mouthful, but it’s also accurate.
    You’re not the chosen one on some do-or-die mission to save the world, you’re just part of a submarine crew - though that is an important position, since submarines are essentially the only way to move people and cargo around on this planet.
    You can take on the role of whatever you want, Captain, electrical or mechanical engineer, medic, security officer, or a jack-of-all trades, master-of-none, assistant.
    While your inherent duty should in theory apply to your class of choice, nothing is class-exclusive. Your chosen role simply dictates your starting skill levels and items. Do something for long enough and regardless of class, you’ll get a point in that skill.
    This game has quickly become one of my favorites, having already put an embarrassing amount of hours into the singleplayer and am currently dumping most of my time into the multiplayer.
    It might not be for everyone, but this is definitely in my top 10 indie games of all time, and a definite buy.

    Nice little bit of lore!
    It is said the husk parasite doesn’t really take control of your nervous system or anything like that, rather, it slowly hollows out your body, and uses your empty carcass as an exoskeleton. Thus the name “Husk”.
    Cool!

    In single player campaigns you should clear out all the enemies in a wreck first; then you can go back to your sub to pick up two storage containers (they look like briefcases) to loot everything of value in just one or two trips. Large items like ammo boxes and depth charges aren't worth their own trip unless it's special ammo. This will make the looting process much faster.

    • @lemoncitrine7023

      To be perfectly honest, I usually use a mod when doing Singleplayer that adds a small handful of wearable inventories, like a backpack for example. When there's more People with you, it usually isn't too hard to assemble a dive team to sweep the place in a trip or two, but alone it's agonizing how long it can take to manage everything. And of course even if you have radiation disabled, you still have the timer of however much fuel you've got until you have to restart the mission and try it again but faster.

    Barotrauma is one of those games where you and your friends slowly descent into insanity and enjoy it. It follows mindset of “if you laugh the situation it’s that bad”. It supports both unserious and serious play styles, offering you all content it has as achievable with both of those. I remember playing with a friend who was new to our crew in Barotrauma so wasn’t very comfortable with us all and fairly fresh and in like 3 hours he ended up as an engineer who snatched several tobacco plants from wreck, welded himself in reactory and grew stuff to smoke in it for the entire game and we found out only when entire reactory was flooded. Everyone loved that guy and we always invited him to play with us later on

    For the single player I use a stack size mod to make items stack in the inventory better and a back pack mod to alliviate the fact that my ai are basically useless outside the sub and literally useless for looting. I recommend this to all single players and in general to be able to perform more missions for your play time. And considering i have to fight alone and loot alone i consider it quite fair

    Real quick something you didn't mention that is good for struggling rookies. Some enemies are just looking for a meal. And they don't care what it is. Kill one of their own and they'll start eating it giving you time to get away, repair, kill more, or whatever else you need to do. Secondly.

    I would like to mention however, the abyss creatures don't have any relations to the shallower sea dwellers, nor are they final boss monsters. Although they do have a direct impact on the campaign map, they are more or less the guard dogs of the abyss. A punishment for unwise crews diving for rare resources found on islands or not taking care of leaks. But their brutal design does play into some very rewarding missions

    as a example ; Morphine is 100% effective at medical 35 and at 34 or below it has higher addiction rates,less effectiveness and so on

    one thing about looting- when you loot a wreck you will generally find bodies laying around- if you put a tool belt on the body that's a whole other inventory's worth of loot you can drag around, and since its a body you can use your scooter at the same time. Between that and learning what loot has the greatest value it's totally possible to loot a one of the larger wrecks- including some ammo boxes- in 15-20 minutes tops

But then once we got back to the sub we mined our way into the armory, got guns and started killing the kill squad one by one until only 4 kill squad guys were left.

    I prefer having LOS because opening a door to see your crew unconscious and mudraptors everywhere because you ducked outside to grab some alien blood for a second is hilarious

    Wow to think you're only at 7k subs!! The video production value is so high I thought I was watching another channel like mandalore. You deserve way more!! Take my sub
    Also, the way you presented the game really sold it so well! The thorough analysis of its mechanics and showing us the really intriguing parts of the game and its creatures, then the submarine editor and modding makes it irresistible to *dive* right in

    I think the recent changes to the game, AND the crew member AI, makes taking them along a bit more reliably. At least the capability to send them back with enough ease, and the recent change letting you access their inventories. But what are your thoughts on it?

    Between the music, speaking style, and Military Channel like documentary vision - one of the best reviews for a game in a while. I had to pause at minute 16 because I was laughing so hard and tears were obscuring my view. Too funny, but strangely I feel like I need to also sink in at least 100 hours into this.

    The patterning noticed is that in all the most popular videos you never really hear about exploring outside the ship. All the horror comes from the deep, creatures of the deep, or your own crew.

    Just picked it up aaaaand ... Yup, great game. I just wish there was an AI preset for "empty the air tank rack and come with me! If anything attacks: you commit an incredible act of bravery by becoming fish food in my stead" - because if you are like me and do not have a lot of play time (5h a week tops), multiplayer isn't an option.

    I agree with most of what you said, except for turning los onto none. I feel like having the line of sight adds a lot to this game. Never really knowing whats outside your ship unless you go on a gun or leave. Not knowing what could be in the next room if the door doesn't have a window. Some of the funniest moments when me and my friends play come from us not knowing something is in our ship until we open a door and 5 mudraptors come charging at us. Or exiting the airlock and seeing 15 crawlers standing there waiting for you

    24:40 This is outdated, now when you have the required skill level to craft you'll get a quality bonus, the green "Good" quality gives +10% to one stat of any item, for example crowbars get +10% striking power and oxygen tanks get +10% condition (condition=capacity). There's also blue "Excellent" quality which is the same as "Good" but with a +20% buff, and a final purple "Masterwork" quality that can only be obtained by meeting the skill requirements for "Excellent" *and* having a talent that gives +1 quality to certain crafted item categories. "Masterwork" quality gives a +30% bonus.

    this game is unputdownable. You will have your favourite role- but then you will realise every time you play just HOW MUCH this game lets you do. If youre wandering where all the people have gone from other games you may be playing, They might be in barotrauma- literally everyone is playing it and for a good reason. Its still early access but has more content than you could go through in a lifetime- with the help of all the awesome mods available of course. Im here only to see what other people say about this game, so if ure watching/reading this and still undecided about whether to buy or not- just get it. You will get your money's worth very quickly- and then you wont be able to stop. Currently im building my own submarine to take into the game with me and my friends, and ive intentionally sifted through the servers looking for 1 person to fill out each role. Also i have a pet dinosaur who eats traitors and dead bodies whenever those appear on my ship.... 400th hour in game XD

    @videogamerNattie98 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bought 3 copies 1 for me, my brother and my friend after he got his steam deck it works for all of us and we all had a great time on a small sub. I would say its a definite buy but on sale id argue that $30 at least imo is a bit much for a game like this. If I had to do the same purchase to get me and my 2 mates on board at full price it would require $90 the price doesn't make it easy for you to get your friends on board as that's where the game really shines. On its own in singleplayer its still a really solid game and is still very much enjoyable, and imo this game is a absolute highlight of Steams greenlight program with so much creative freedom and how light the game is its great and the fact that its still being worked on years later is amazing.
    But id argue $10 to $15 on its own or maybe $20 with a 4 pack option as a lot of games suffer from that dilemma where you really have to shell out LOTS of money to play with friends and Barotrauma is suffering from that very same problem takeing $120 to bring you and 3 others on board. A 4 pack would help alleviate that issue and a price cut down to 20 with a 4 pack would cut the bulk buying for 4 people in half to a more reasonable $60, some may call me a cheapskate but that's how I feel. Id complain about this more but thankfully Barotrauma goes on sale as frequently as other games on the steam store which can be utilized to buy enough copies for you and your friends for the price of 1 but any other day id pass on buying it off of price point alone.
    TL:DR - The Game is extremely solid and good especially with it still being updated years later. But purchasing the game in bulk is prohibitively expensive thus makes it hard for someone to introduce it to a group of friends even the base price point id argue is quite a bit much for a single person.

    ATTENTION SAILORS!
    I SHALL NOW DESCRIBE ALL THE CLASSES IN BEAUTIFUL BUT SIMPLISTIC DETAIL
    Captain: Most of the times the campaign host. Afk, new and has cool hat and shooty mc boom boom
    assistant: someone plays this job?
    Medic: Ironically, the very best killing machine on the ship. Has so many poisons you could make an assasin jealous, also most likely a bioterrorist and loves his crew (Also the most stressed and depressed person on board)
    Security: Either a cool dude trying to easily kill enemies, or power hungry 9yr olds
    Mechanic: Already broke into the armory, god at wiring. Best friends with engineer
    Engineer:The god of all, Easily dethrones captain, can destroy whole ship in a second, can fix the submarine with a wrench and life partner with mechanic

    When you go outsiders your submarine grab a flare, if you throw flare on your way if there monsters they are start attacking the flare, when that happens you can shoot them or throw a grenade, and if you don’t have any flare you have to kill one of them so the others eat the dead one, and if you wire your diving suit slots into a power source their oxygen will fill up automatically :3
