I don't mind seeing the ocean in video games like subnautica, because I know it's not real and that I don't have to be afraid, but in real life I do have a fear of the depths, Especially if it's dark
Completely dark, I know there's something out there trying to eat me, pretty much defenseless without my cyclops, probably have to swim lots to get to the safe location, have no clue where the f I am. Yeah, I don't care if the cyclops is sinking, I'm not going outside.
I went hunting for Ghost Leviathans once and went to one of the entrances to the Lost River Turns out the entrance I went to was on the edge of the deadzone because I found a Ghost Leviathan approaching me before I’d even entered the Lost River, so I left my Seamoth and used my Stasis Rifle I spent maybe five minutes trying to kill it, I think my game was glitching (probably) but I froze and scanned it and as I read out loud to my family “nearing full size” a second Ghost Leviathan appeared and it dawned upon me “Oh shit, this is a deadzone leviathan” I jumped in my Seamoth and dipped TL;DR Went hunting for Juvie Ghost Leviathans and fought Adults without knowing it
Why stasis it when you can beat its ass with the prawn suit, Btw you can kill them but they respawn so its worthless, Fight it lile a real man than spamming your knife onto it until it dies.
@@xxXXPurifiedSpiritfallXXxx The void leviathans respawn, I've tried killing one before and it just came back to life as if nothing happened. If they dont respawn, People would just keep entering the dead zone because there are no limits or bounderies.
That’s rough, man, that’s really rough. I think they only tell you you’re entering the dead zone the first time. After that, you’re on your own. Here’s a tip: avoid traveling at night so you can see the terrain around you better. (You can build a small bed in your Cyclops, then go to sleep when the sunsets and before you know it you’ll be awake at sunrise and can proceed). If all the terrain cuts off at a sharp cliff, you are probably about to enter the dead zone.
@@brayerkh ikr? Fun fact: I found an old capture of the game and in one of the sonar pulses is my first reaper sighting, but i never saw it until now!! Very terrifying
Will never forget the first time I entered the deadzone. So there’s an escape pod you need to find that’s near the tail end of the aurora. I say near but I really mean like 200-500 meters away from it. Well, I forgot what direction I was supposed to go in, but I know I went the wrong way. For context, the pda described the area I was supposed to go to as a low-life density place, so when I heard “entering ecological dead zone” I didn’t think much about it, because at that time I didn’t know the deadzone was a thing that existed. I kept going in my seamoth, occasionally looking down, and got increasingly nervous as I couldn’t see the ground no matter how deep I went, and the water was a neon blue which was strangely unsettling. Then I heard it. A distant screech. I stopped and looked around rapidly in the seamoth, spinning every direction trying to find the source of the noise. I caught a glimpse of it. A bioluminescent blue snake-like shape flickered with orange, steadily increasing in size as it came nearer, the screeching getting louder. I turned around to head back to the escape pod, and a few seconds later I got launched out of the water, probably a good 50-60 meters back to the crater edge. I repaired my seamoth, and not getting the message that this was the out of bounds area, I did it *again.* This time two ghost leviathans showed up, destroyed my seamoth, and killed me. I did a quick google search and found out I was looking for my escape pod in the void, a good like 800ish meters away from where it actually was and had had an encounter with the infamous ghost leviathan.
And that one look back of a few seconds cost him his life, I think he didn't finish the animation to actually get into the P.R.A.W.N Suit, which woulda dropped him away from the ship, avoiding getting crushed, and depending on how close he was to the crater edge, or his skill with grappling leviathans, he MIGHT have made it back to safety. More likely than not though he'd just fall to crush depth or get eaten.
I once stumbled into the dead zone in my cyclops and realized when a ghost leviathan emerged from the shadows in front of me. I turned on shields, turned off the engine, turned off lights, and then turned off shields and then just... Sat there... A second and third leviathan showed up, but since the engine was off they couldn't detect the cyclops so for a good minute all I could do was try to calm down and plan. I had decoys on board (always made sure to have the tube fully loaded and a locker or two with extras) so eventually I returned to the wheel, launched the decoy, turned on engines and shields, and booked it. Fortunately, I wasn't too far away from the crater, but all expedition plans were put on hold until I could recover my nerves, refuel the power cells, and replace the decoys... Watching 3 ghost leviathan's swimming together from the onboard cameras and cockpit was beautiful though
@@MB2.0 I think they’d understand pretty quickly. Once you explain the tv/computer, which I think is easier to a 1800s person to grasp than you think, then it’s not *too* dissimilar than getting emotional from a book or a play, both of which they had then
Nobody ever really knows when they’re in the dead zone until it’s too late. It’s the second largest beginners trap in the game next to the Reaper by the crash site. Anyway, I’ve noticed that when you approach the dead zone, light just vanishes entirely and it gets eerily quiet. That and you notice the lack of wild life and the surrounding terrain just opens up into a void. If you notice any of these, turn around!
I remember when i was on my seamoth and i found for the first time the dead zone, i didn't know what it was, and i got confused by the fact that the sonar didn't reached the bottom, so I went down the dead zone to explore it without knowing the risk, and I got jumpscared by a ghost leviathan, worst experience in subnautica
This is literally an exact recreation of what happened to me when I was about to finish the game except I didn't get in my prawn suit and it sank to the bottom of the void lol. Thankfully the rocket was already built but I had to swim 2,000 m
Know whats worse? Using the teleporters to get around quickly to hatch the eggs it causes your game to crash sending you all the way back to before you got into the inactive lava zone. :/ Those teleporters are so buggy man. Went through one long before that with the Prawn and it glitched out teleporting me back and forth so I was stuck in the teleporter for a bit. Think it was because of the Prawns hitbox being out and in of the teleporting and getting registered again and again as interacting with the portal. Still Cyclops death is the worst especially if you set up your Cyclops completely with alot of storage and items to act as a mobile base.
@@karibrimacombe8710 Obviously. Streamers don't follow that rule though because views. Thought that rule tends to also die when factoring in the lava zones or in my case. Bugs. Had the ghost Leviathan in the blood kelp entrance to lost river get glitched out of its biome and into the mushroom forest next to its original biome. This is because Amp Eels attack leviathans and caused the ghost to flee, but they kept chasing and attacking thus chasing it out of the biome.
Thing about the dead zone in subnautica is that it Lso exists on our planet. Literally most of our ocean is still unexplored and it goes down very very deep in some regions. We know more about space than we do about our oceans. Frightening
I agree. I’m super into biology and studying our oceans is quite the experience. I think the thing that scares me the most is that the largest sea animals we know of will wash ashore with huge chunks missing or whatever. Clear signs of attack. But as far as we know nothing considers them prey. Scary right?
Not entirely true. There are indeed vast sections of or oceans that are dead zones. That part is correct. we do not know more about space than we do about our oceans. Not even close. Most of our oceans, through various means has been mapped. Most of the areas containing life (Sizeable) have been explored by either people or robotics. The number people always use is 15% explored. That means a person has been there when they talk about 15%. We have done a lot with robotics, sonar, satellites and other means to know what is down there. We dont know everything, but a lot more than people think when they say things like "we have only explored 15% of our oceans", only because they have the impression that is all we know about instead of knowing that number means a person has been there,
Yea most of the ocean has nothing it in. We know more about our ocean than we do space, we just haven’t explored the ocean because there’s nothing to explore.
The fact that you never catch a glimpse of the creature makes it so much more terrifying. Not even a little bit of the bioluminescence. We all know it was a Ghost Leviathan, but imagine that Ghosts weren’t a thing. Imagine that there was something much bigger lurking in the waters of the Void, that you didn’t even know what looked like.
@@tonysanchez5621 I have a 65 inch TV and play on PS5. With surround sound and the living room lights dark it's relaxing, until its TERRIFYING. I woke up my daughter one night by screaming lol she ran out like mama! What happened!? I had to tell my kid I was afraid of a big fish in a video game 😅😂

Something about not seeing what was attacking the ship and only seeing the red dot get closer as the ship took damage, was just so cool. Then when you hear it's cry right before the last hit, extra goodness.
Not infinitely, with console commands I’ve gotten to the bottom of the deadzone and it’s only like 4k meters down Unless they removed the floor for some reason
@@kyuura4324 they did. a while back i went to the floor and they changed it to 8k depth and anything that reaches there gets teleported back to the lifepod
My first time going to the Dead Zone was intentional. I have a very bad fear of deep ocean waters, called Thalassophobia. You may think it's strange that someone with this fear would play a game that would trigger this fear in pretty much every environment, but I am trying to conquer my fear. Anyway, I went to the Dead Zone by taking my Seamoth (I saved the game before I left base) and driving on the surface until the water turned bright neon blue (No other biome during the day as far as I know looks this way) and I got the PDA warning. I was too scared to even look around, so I just waited there for the Ghost Leviathans to attack. One hit me from below and sent my Seamoth way into the air, and when I landed, I was staring out into the blue abyss, but nothing was happening. I waited for like 2 minutes before looking around and seeing that the Ghost Leviathan knocked me back into the crater, I think back to the Mountains biome. I decided that I wasn't satisfied with my experiment, so I went back out into the Dead Zone and waited like the first time. Only this time, more Ghost Leviathans showed up, up to 3 of them, and they quickly destroyed my Seamoth, and then killed me. I didn't move at all until the last second where I turned around to see a Ghost Leviathan coming straight for me when I was out of my Seamoth. Truly terrifying experience... However, the fact that I intentionally went there and pushed myself to experience this gave me some feeling of control, which is the one key thing that is lacking when you experience a phobia, you fear the loss of control. Giving myself control over the situation to face my fear made me just a tiny bit less afraid of the ocean.
Lately, I've been trying to conquer my fears and do this very thing. I don't know that I'd go as far as to actively LOOK for them but so far, I find myself going deeper and further and getting less and less worried or afraid. Testing the waters of my own fear, so to speak 😂
*Enters the dead zone* *Doesn't realize the music had cut off* *Hears a ghost leviathan screech* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA EDIT: PLEASE READ MY FIRST REPLY, ALSO, I AM NOT REFERENCING THE VIDEO, I'M TIRED OF PEOPLE THINKING I'M TALKING ABOUT THE VIDEO
I feel like I have to kind of explain something for some reason first of all this actually was what happened when I entered the dead zone for the first time in Subnautica, and though i did not put this in there... I had actually ignored the notice from the tablet thingy because I'm dumb second of all, *y e s* if you enter the dead zone the music actually cuts off (I only mentioned this for those who had no idea it happens) and lastly, I had no clue how ghost leviathans sounded, yet somehow I think I just guessed that it was a ghost leviathan, and when I saw a weird blue outline thing I got out of there as quick as possible and decided to look up what heck I just witnessed (I never got my answer by looking it up idk why) so I looked up instead of what I mainly searched (im not typing in what i mainly searched because im too lazy to do that) and searched up; 'Where do ghost leviathans spawn in Subnautica.' So now I know! I have no idea why I made this so long
To be fair, when you're in the shit; your first priority is to get out of there as soon as possible. You are not going to be able to out-repair an attacking ghost leviathan, and they'll leave you alone if you escape the Dead Zone. The fact that a ghost leviathan will immediately forget your ship even while it was already attacking it is a bit gimmicky and not exactly the most intuitive thing.
@@SinerAthinou can’t “get out of there” when you’re driving full speed INTO the fucking dead zone. The person who posted this video was either an idiot or fishing for content, no debate.
When i first entered the deadzone i didnt really know what it was so i just went deeper and deeper. Since i have minor thalassophobia when the ghosts came i got so scared i abandoned ship and just ran back with my prawn. I had to come back for my cyclops later, since it somehow survived. What a terrifying experience
one time playing bz i was killing a chelicerate. i was in my prawnt hooked onto it and it was just thrashing around. it went from purple vents to twisty bridges to the safe area to the place with all the eye jellies and then to lilypad area. i was focused on him and didnt really care. at one point we zoomed past another chelicerate area. next thing i knew i was way out in dead zone 200 meters down hooked on for dear life with 2 void chelicerates attacking. i accidentally let go of the hook and started falling so i decided it would be best to turn the ps4 off for the day
I was playing bz and my prawn suit clipped through the ocean floor. Had to build a new one. Another story is that I was in the lily pad area really deep down, and I left my prawn suit since it was too deep, and I went up to a lily paddler, which promptly drowned me. It was hard to get back to my base after that
@@sledge3174 that happened to me way too many times and I lost so many upgrades the only time I saved a prawn suit from that was once, I lost 6 other prawn suits (and one had ion cells)
I remember I had my Cyclops on max speed, there were fires in every possible spot within the sub, breaches on every possible spot outside the sub, it had a sliver of HP left. I ran to the pilot’s seat and popped shield gen mere moments before a Reaper made contact. I could clearly see the Reaper’s ugly face in the headlights of the Cyclops, it was that close. Half a second later, and my Cyclops would have been toast.
Adult Ghost Leviathans are the reason i dont go to the dead zone much. those things appear so suddenly they scare me even more than Reaper Leviathans do.
I remember I once tested the Deadzone leviathans in my cyclops by going to the bottom of the ocean. I got stuck down there because the only to not get blown to hell is to go as fast as you can before turning your cyclops off completely so as to avoid getting eaten by three leviathans. I eventually escaped but it was hard, because any amount of damage to the sub I had to repair, the Leviathans would ignore the sub once it was turned off, but they'll attack you as soon as you leave it. You can survive the deadzone, just gotta be smart and extremely patient.
The peculiarity of this game is that the player and therefore the playable character cannot rely on the technology that is offered to him, therefore using it carefully, since it has limits 👀, always keeping you a little anxious 😫. I believe that Captain Nemo with his "old" Nautilus submarine with electric power would perform better in the Dead Zone of the Ocean of the SubNautica planet than a man of the future with the most advanced nautical technologies 🤔
To be fair, most of the technology that’s available to you is just in the fabricators library for Survival in hostile environments, not necessarily the “let me fight gigantic sea monsters” library. The fabricators ARE capable of constructing weaponry and much more durable materials, but since those are outlawed you’re limited by constructing just the necessary means for survival, if not by the Kharaa infection you could easily live for longs periods on time on an habitat powered by a dozen solar panels and living out of filtered water and potatoes.
What exactly was the game plan there chief? 😂 You looked like you were boppin to your favorite jam. Id be shitting my pants if the water ever got that dark.
Ghost Leviathans in the void will always attack you. It was shown through PDAs and the lore that the void is their territory and they want you out of it. These Ghost Leviathans in particular are the largest in the game too.
Worst part it was also night time so outside of the music cutting out; (which actually can occur normally in other biomes when your in the Cyclops) You had no warning until it was too late. Usually how I identify if im in the deadzone or not is the biome color change, the water becomes a deep blue in the Deadzone so its easy to identify. Then again I stopped staying close to the surface in the Cyclops when they added health to it, mainly because bone sharks tend to roam outside their biomes and sit around 5-10 meters near the surface, which is also a thing some of the Reapers and Sea Dragons have in their patrol/aggro range where they aggro alot higher up rather than lower. But could be worse. I had the Ghost Leviathan outside the blood kelp's lost river entrance get glitches out of its area since Amp Eels aggro Leviathans and caused it to flee out of the biome... so had a Ghost in the mushroom forest, killed my seamoth then and almost my Cyclops cause I didn't expect it to be there when I was exploring for alot of materials to set up a base outside the entrance to the inactive lava zone.

This is less scary than my first unwitting foray into the Deadzone when a ghost leviathan appeared out of nowhere and it's head literally bugged out phasing through the windshield into my cyclops filling my entire screen with it's gaping maw.
I remember going into the deadzone out of curiosity. Chillin and minding my own business while also sweating because it was eerily silent, but I kept on going hoping i’d find treasure or something. And then 2 minutes later, I changed my mind and wanted to go back up. As soon as I turned around, 3 ghost leviathans have been following me the whole time and I shit my pants.. I panicked so hard, I didn’t even know where I was going anymore. I needed a cigarette after that one..
The transition from quietly and contently shimmying around at the controls to "no no NO NO NO" within 30 seconds is basically the entire vibe of Subnautica.
Happened to me about a week ago, was so hyped that I finally built my submarine and christened it the S.S. Reginald. I texted my friend who loves this game that the fish were in trouble. I was so Jazz on my maiden voyage that I just drove in a direction, and 6 minutes later I texted him that I was gonna take a break.
The first time I went into the deadzone I was on a call with my friend and I said "What's the ecological dead zone" and he replied with "Wait, you're in the dead zone?" with the "Oh you are so fucked" tone. I had previously been going through the grand reef on lookout for ghost leviathans because I really didn't want to encounter one so I kinda freaked out. The worst thing is, I never actually saw one so when I actually saw one in the blood kelp zone it scared the shit out of me. R.IP. Jonas, you were a good cyclops.
I hope the next game has a much deeper water even in the normal areas that it's harder to notice if you're in the void or not... And also deep enough for the Atlast sub
I've traveled into the deadzone on accident in the sea moth and prawn suit and it definitely wasn't as exciting. I now realize why taking out the cyclops was always so tense. Because I didn't want that to happen.
i remember going to the Sea Threaders (or Treaders) for resources since i found out they give good stuffs. One thing was i did it in Night. so one wrong turn was either The Deadzone or The Dunes. i managed to stay away from the Dunes but i didnt get to stay away from the Deadzone. i pressed F1 to see where i was and i just see a Ghost Leviathan circling me. nearly shat myself.
You were using your Cyclops when it was very damaged already, you didn't have the shield module, you didn't the decoys, you traveled for thousands of meters paying NO attention to where you were going. You did this to yourself.
This is literally my greatest fear. Being stranded in the dark, underwater, with imminent danger on ever side, about to die alone and afraid. My heart is pumping so hard right now lol,
You'd think I would have learned my lesson in Subnautica's dead zone. Then I wandered into Subzeros dead zone, let's just say it ended like the first time I stumbled upon the dead zone. Yeah, dead. Lot's of screaming involved.
This actually just happened to me earlier but a little different. I'm new to Subnautica and I was trying to complete the story and I was watching a video, I got to the lost see (idk if that's what it's called) and I didn't notice I needed ion cubes and tablets so I had to go back but I was half way there and my seamoth was at 1% power and a ghost leviathan killed me. I'm honestly thinking about making a new save tbh
Even though with my experience I know how to combat the Ghost and that it isn't that difficult going into the deadzone fills me with so much tension and stress.
Lmfao i feel this, first time playing, didnt know what the deadzone was, all i knew was there were ghost leviathans if i went deep. Viewer asked to see ghost leviathans, so i took my cyclops out to see them. In my head, if i ascended, they would stay deep. I got out there, took my first bump, then started to ascend. They followed all the way to the surface and destroyed the sub 😔 lots of resources lost but a funny clip nonetheless 🤣
Bro i literally refuse to go out into open ocean unless there's ground beneath me. If there's a dead drop into darkness and I can't see the bottom? Hell no, I'm hauling ass out of there. Idc if its the dead zone or not, ain't dying today
Same! Im ok with water if I can see where I'm walking/swimming. But if I can't see the bottom my fight or flight kicks in. There's a name for this fear, its Thalassophobia. (The fear of the ocean or large bodies of water, but can also apply to our fear.) More common than you think.
It’s terrifying that when you go to the Dead Zone for the first time you immediately get a warning, but then the PDA assumes you will never go there again therefore won’t warn you when you enter it again.

I went hunting for Ghost Leviathans once and went to one of the entrances to the Lost River
Turns out the entrance I went to was on the edge of the deadzone because I found a Ghost Leviathan approaching me before I’d even entered the Lost River, so I left my Seamoth and used my Stasis Rifle
I spent maybe five minutes trying to kill it, I think my game was glitching (probably) but I froze and scanned it and as I read out loud to my family “nearing full size” a second Ghost Leviathan appeared and it dawned upon me “Oh shit, this is a deadzone leviathan”

A bioluminescent blue snake-like shape flickered with orange, steadily increasing in size as it came nearer, the screeching getting louder. I turned around to head back to the escape pod, and a few seconds later I got launched out of the water, probably a good 50-60 meters back to the crater edge. I repaired my seamoth, and not getting the message that this was the out of bounds area, I did it *again.* This time two ghost leviathans showed up, destroyed my seamoth, and killed me. I did a quick google search and found out I was looking for my escape pod in the void, a good like 800ish meters away from where it actually was and had had an encounter with the infamous ghost leviathan.
800 GOOD LORD
I like how he looked back at the burning cyclops one last time before abandoning ship
He made it look so cinematic
And that one look back of a few seconds cost him his life, I think he didn't finish the animation to actually get into the P.R.A.W.N Suit, which woulda dropped him away from the ship, avoiding getting crushed, and depending on how close he was to the crater edge, or his skill with grappling leviathans, he MIGHT have made it back to safety.
More likely than not though he'd just fall to crush depth or get eaten.
I once stumbled into the dead zone in my cyclops and realized when a ghost leviathan emerged from the shadows in front of me.
I turned on shields, turned off the engine, turned off lights, and then turned off shields and then just... Sat there...
A second and third leviathan showed up, but since the engine was off they couldn't detect the cyclops so for a good minute all I could do was try to calm down and plan.
I had decoys on board (always made sure to have the tube fully loaded and a locker or two with extras) so eventually I returned to the wheel, launched the decoy, turned on engines and shields, and booked it.
Fortunately, I wasn't too far away from the crater, but all expedition plans were put on hold until I could recover my nerves, refuel the power cells, and replace the decoys...
Watching 3 ghost leviathan's swimming together from the onboard cameras and cockpit was beautiful though
This speaks to the quality of game experience Subnautica offers. It’s such an amazing game.

Nobody ever really knows when they’re in the dead zone until it’s too late. It’s the second largest beginners trap in the game next to the Reaper by the crash site.
Anyway, I’ve noticed that when you approach the dead zone, light just vanishes entirely and it gets eerily quiet. That and you notice the lack of wild life and the surrounding terrain just opens up into a void. If you notice any of these, turn around!
I remember when i was on my seamoth and i found for the first time the dead zone, i didn't know what it was, and i got confused by the fact that the sonar didn't reached the bottom, so I went down the dead zone to explore it without knowing the risk, and I got jumpscared by a ghost leviathan, worst experience in subnautica
This is literally an exact recreation of what happened to me when I was about to finish the game except I didn't get in my prawn suit and it sank to the bottom of the void lol. Thankfully the rocket was already built but I had to swim 2,000 m
Know whats worse? Using the teleporters to get around quickly to hatch the eggs it causes your game to crash sending you all the way back to before you got into the inactive lava zone. :/
Those teleporters are so buggy man. Went through one long before that with the Prawn and it glitched out teleporting me back and forth so I was stuck in the teleporter for a bit. Think it was because of the Prawns hitbox being out and in of the teleporting and getting registered again and again as interacting with the portal.
Still Cyclops death is the worst especially if you set up your Cyclops completely with alot of storage and items to act as a mobile base.
@@francisharkins thats why you dont bring cyclops to dangerous areas. Its solely used as a mobile base.
@@karibrimacombe8710 Obviously. Streamers don't follow that rule though because views.
Thought that rule tends to also die when factoring in the lava zones or in my case. Bugs.
Had the ghost Leviathan in the blood kelp entrance to lost river get glitched out of its biome and into the mushroom forest next to its original biome. This is because Amp Eels attack leviathans and caused the ghost to flee, but they kept chasing and attacking thus chasing it out of the biome.
@@karibrimacombe8710 i built 3 cyclops, so im good
Thing about the dead zone in subnautica is that it Lso exists on our planet.
Literally most of our ocean is still unexplored and it goes down very very deep in some regions. We know more about space than we do about our oceans.
Frightening
I agree. I’m super into biology and studying our oceans is quite the experience. I think the thing that scares me the most is that the largest sea animals we know of will wash ashore with huge chunks missing or whatever. Clear signs of attack. But as far as we know nothing considers them prey. Scary right?
LITERALLY????????????????
Not entirely true. There are indeed vast sections of or oceans that are dead zones. That part is correct. we do not know more about space than we do about our oceans. Not even close. Most of our oceans, through various means has been mapped. Most of the areas containing life (Sizeable) have been explored by either people or robotics. The number people always use is 15% explored. That means a person has been there when they talk about 15%. We have done a lot with robotics, sonar, satellites and other means to know what is down there. We dont know everything, but a lot more than people think when they say things like "we have only explored 15% of our oceans", only because they have the impression that is all we know about instead of knowing that number means a person has been there,
Yea most of the ocean has nothing it in. We know more about our ocean than we do space, we just haven’t explored the ocean because there’s nothing to explore.
The only reason that hardly any is explored is because the majority of it is just empty space
The fact that you never catch a glimpse of the creature makes it so much more terrifying. Not even a little bit of the bioluminescence.
We all know it was a Ghost Leviathan, but imagine that Ghosts weren’t a thing. Imagine that there was something much bigger lurking in the waters of the Void, that you didn’t even know what looked like.
This is why I want Gargantua in the dead zone
There’s probably much bigger creatures in the void since it takes up about 90% of the planet.
If there was a creature much bigger lurking in the void it would die, since it wouldn't have big enough food to survive
@@nugget3808 I mean it could either feast on microscopic creatures like the ghost or it could eat the ghost leviathans.
@@nugget3808 I personally believe there’s more to the void than just an empty void of darkness.
I play this game on a 120 inch projector that covers most the wall. The emmersion is incredible but so is the terror

Everyone here shitting on the cyclops, but no one talking about the person responsible for A: Not paying attention to the surroundings, and B: Operating a Cyclops on half health
Mans was Vibing too hard
Yeah wait a second why TF was the cyclops half hp lol.
Kill the engine if a leviathan comes after you. It'll leave you alone.
Also he was going full speed when the Leviathans were attacking him
Yeah. Usually there's a dramatic cut off of undersea landscape that's a good hint of the deadzone.
Something about not seeing what was attacking the ship and only seeing the red dot get closer as the ship took damage, was just so cool. Then when you hear it's cry right before the last hit, extra goodness.
What’s worse is now your cyclops will sink infinitely
Until it reaches 8k meters down, in which case the game will teleport it into your lifepod.
It doesn't sink unless you are near it. Subnautica's physics work that way.
Not infinitely, with console commands I’ve gotten to the bottom of the deadzone and it’s only like 4k meters down
Unless they removed the floor for some reason
@@kyuura4324 they did. a while back i went to the floor and they changed it to 8k depth and anything that reaches there gets teleported back to the lifepod
@@kyuura4324 the floor of the dead zone is at like 8k meters in base game, i think its 4k meters in below zero
My first time going to the Dead Zone was intentional. I have a very bad fear of deep ocean waters, called Thalassophobia. You may think it's strange that someone with this fear would play a game that would trigger this fear in pretty much every environment, but I am trying to conquer my fear. Anyway, I went to the Dead Zone by taking my Seamoth (I saved the game before I left base) and driving on the surface until the water turned bright neon blue (No other biome during the day as far as I know looks this way) and I got the PDA warning. I was too scared to even look around, so I just waited there for the Ghost Leviathans to attack. One hit me from below and sent my Seamoth way into the air, and when I landed, I was staring out into the blue abyss, but nothing was happening. I waited for like 2 minutes before looking around and seeing that the Ghost Leviathan knocked me back into the crater, I think back to the Mountains biome.
I decided that I wasn't satisfied with my experiment, so I went back out into the Dead Zone and waited like the first time. Only this time, more Ghost Leviathans showed up, up to 3 of them, and they quickly destroyed my Seamoth, and then killed me. I didn't move at all until the last second where I turned around to see a Ghost Leviathan coming straight for me when I was out of my Seamoth. Truly terrifying experience... However, the fact that I intentionally went there and pushed myself to experience this gave me some feeling of control, which is the one key thing that is lacking when you experience a phobia, you fear the loss of control. Giving myself control over the situation to face my fear made me just a tiny bit less afraid of the ocean.
Lately, I've been trying to conquer my fears and do this very thing. I don't know that I'd go as far as to actively LOOK for them but so far, I find myself going deeper and further and getting less and less worried or afraid. Testing the waters of my own fear, so to speak 😂
Freaking cool
not sure i have a phobia but i am sure that this game freaks me right out and i love it
I’m very proud of you, well done!
Proud of you dude. I'm scared of a lot of underwater life and I think I'm gonna use this game to help with that too

EDIT: PLEASE READ MY FIRST REPLY, ALSO, I AM NOT REFERENCING THE VIDEO, I'M TIRED OF PEOPLE THINKING I'M TALKING ABOUT THE VIDEO
I feel like I have to kind of explain something for some reason
first of all this actually was what happened when I entered the dead zone for the first time in Subnautica, and though i did not put this in there... I had actually ignored the notice from the tablet thingy because I'm dumb
second of all, *y e s* if you enter the dead zone the music actually cuts off (I only mentioned this for those who had no idea it happens)
and lastly, I had no clue how ghost leviathans sounded, yet somehow I think I just guessed that it was a ghost leviathan, and when I saw a weird blue outline thing I got out of there as quick as possible and decided to look up what heck I just witnessed (I never got my answer by looking it up idk why) so I looked up instead of what I mainly searched (im not typing in what i mainly searched because im too lazy to do that) and searched up; 'Where do ghost leviathans spawn in Subnautica.'

To be fair, when you're in the shit; your first priority is to get out of there as soon as possible. You are not going to be able to out-repair an attacking ghost leviathan, and they'll leave you alone if you escape the Dead Zone.
The fact that a ghost leviathan will immediately forget your ship even while it was already attacking it is a bit gimmicky and not exactly the most intuitive thing.
@@SinerAthinou can’t “get out of there” when you’re driving full speed INTO the fucking dead zone. The person who posted this video was either an idiot or fishing for content, no debate.

one time playing bz i was killing a chelicerate. i was in my prawnt hooked onto it and it was just thrashing around. it went from purple vents to twisty bridges to the safe area to the place with all the eye jellies and then to lilypad area. i was focused on him and didnt really care. at one point we zoomed past another chelicerate area. next thing i knew i was way out in dead zone 200 meters down hooked on for dear life with 2 void chelicerates attacking. i accidentally let go of the hook and started falling so i decided it would be best to turn the ps4 off for the day
I was playing bz and my prawn suit clipped through the ocean floor. Had to build a new one. Another story is that I was in the lily pad area really deep down, and I left my prawn suit since it was too deep, and I went up to a lily paddler, which promptly drowned me.

I remember I had my Cyclops on max speed, there were fires in every possible spot within the sub, breaches on every possible spot outside the sub, it had a sliver of HP left. I ran to the pilot’s seat and popped shield gen mere moments before a Reaper made contact. I could clearly see the Reaper’s ugly face in the headlights of the Cyclops, it was that close. Half a second later, and my Cyclops would have been toast.
I've played Subnautica so many times and everytime I enter the dead zone my heart rate quickens each time, freaking terrifying
Adult Ghost Leviathans are the reason i dont go to the dead zone much. those things appear so suddenly they scare me even more than Reaper Leviathans do.
Cyclops: getting destroyed to bits
The sick background music: "it's showtime"
I love how we casually walks through a flooding room that's on fire
I remember I once tested the Deadzone leviathans in my cyclops by going to the bottom of the ocean.
I got stuck down there because the only to not get blown to hell is to go as fast as you can before turning your cyclops off completely so as to avoid getting eaten by three leviathans. I eventually escaped but it was hard, because any amount of damage to the sub I had to repair, the Leviathans would ignore the sub once it was turned off, but they'll attack you as soon as you leave it.
You can survive the deadzone, just gotta be smart and extremely patient.
Sorry I am late. I took a vacation to the void. I saw you but you didn’t see me. Anyways, how are you?
big chilling
Also, kinda wish the PDA would always alert you, if you've entered the dead zone
The peculiarity of this game is that the player and therefore the playable character cannot rely on the technology that is offered to him, therefore using it carefully, since it has limits 👀, always keeping you a little anxious 😫. I believe that Captain Nemo with his "old" Nautilus submarine with electric power would perform better in the Dead Zone of the Ocean of the SubNautica planet than a man of the future with the most advanced nautical technologies 🤔
Hey, Nautilus ain't that old
To be fair, most of the technology that’s available to you is just in the fabricators library for Survival in hostile environments, not necessarily the “let me fight gigantic sea monsters” library. The fabricators ARE capable of constructing weaponry and much more durable materials, but since those are outlawed you’re limited by constructing just the necessary means for survival, if not by the Kharaa infection you could easily live for longs periods on time on an habitat powered by a dozen solar panels and living out of filtered water and potatoes.
What exactly was the game plan there chief? 😂 You looked like you were boppin to your favorite jam. Id be shitting my pants if the water ever got that dark.
If your being attacked turn the engine off it stops things from attacking
Ghost Leviathans in the void will always attack you. It was shown through PDAs and the lore that the void is their territory and they want you out of it. These Ghost Leviathans in particular are the largest in the game too.

I love how he’s just vibing in his submarine and he slowly starts panicking until he gets attacked by a leviathan
Only one word can describe this situation: p a i n
I've never lost a cyclops, except for the one that's still in the deadzone.
Worst part it was also night time so outside of the music cutting out; (which actually can occur normally in other biomes when your in the Cyclops) You had no warning until it was too late. Usually how I identify if im in the deadzone or not is the biome color change, the water becomes a deep blue in the Deadzone so its easy to identify.
Then again I stopped staying close to the surface in the Cyclops when they added health to it, mainly because bone sharks tend to roam outside their biomes and sit around 5-10 meters near the surface, which is also a thing some of the Reapers and Sea Dragons have in their patrol/aggro range where they aggro alot higher up rather than lower.
But could be worse. I had the Ghost Leviathan outside the blood kelp's lost river entrance get glitches out of its area since Amp Eels aggro Leviathans and caused it to flee out of the biome... so had a Ghost in the mushroom forest, killed my seamoth then and almost my Cyclops cause I didn't expect it to be there when I was exploring for alot of materials to set up a base outside the entrance to the inactive lava zone.
Bone sharks can't damage the cyclops.
I literally have the exact same thing happening in my current playthrough, any suggestions besides avoiding that area unprepared?
A simple rule really.
No sonar, no rights to life.

Accidentally entering the dead zone with a prawn suit in your cyclops is the worst feeling.
The transition from quietly and contently shimmying around at the controls to "no no NO NO NO" within 30 seconds is basically the entire vibe of Subnautica.
Happened to me about a week ago, was so hyped that I finally built my submarine and christened it the S.S. Reginald. I texted my friend who loves this game that the fish were in trouble. I was so Jazz on my maiden voyage that I just drove in a direction, and 6 minutes later I texted him that I was gonna take a break.
This has to be the most tragic Subnautica video I have ever watched
The first time I went into the deadzone I was on a call with my friend and I said "What's the ecological dead zone" and he replied with "Wait, you're in the dead zone?" with the "Oh you are so fucked" tone. I had previously been going through the grand reef on lookout for ghost leviathans because I really didn't want to encounter one so I kinda freaked out. The worst thing is, I never actually saw one so when I actually saw one in the blood kelp zone it scared the shit out of me. R.IP. Jonas, you were a good cyclops.
I hope the next game has a much deeper water even in the normal areas that it's harder to notice if you're in the void or not...
And also deep enough for the Atlast sub
I've traveled into the deadzone on accident in the sea moth and prawn suit and it definitely wasn't as exciting. I now realize why taking out the cyclops was always so tense. Because I didn't want that to happen.
i remember going to the Sea Threaders (or Treaders) for resources since i found out they give good stuffs. One thing was i did it in Night. so one wrong turn was either The Deadzone or The Dunes. i managed to stay away from the Dunes but i didnt get to stay away from the Deadzone. i pressed F1 to see where i was and i just see a Ghost Leviathan circling me. nearly shat myself.
The abandon ship theme is the best in the game
“Where’d the Reaper g-”
*intense explosions*
You were using your Cyclops when it was very damaged already, you didn't have the shield module, you didn't the decoys, you traveled for thousands of meters paying NO attention to where you were going.
You did this to yourself.

That made me laugh so bad. He deserved it. Its funny how you just see it land on him xD

You'd think I would have learned my lesson in Subnautica's dead zone. Then I wandered into Subzeros dead zone, let's just say it ended like the first time I stumbled upon the dead zone. Yeah, dead. Lot's of screaming involved.

imagine running from the deadzone...

This actually just happened to me earlier but a little different. I'm new to Subnautica and I was trying to complete the story and I was watching a video, I got to the lost see (idk if that's what it's called) and I didn't notice I needed ion cubes and tablets so I had to go back but I was half way there and my seamoth was at 1% power and a ghost leviathan killed me. I'm honestly thinking about making a new save tbh
I love how he was vibing at the start 😂😂
That's why I ping my sonar constantly so I don't get caught off guard.
Getting in that prawn suit over the void zone gave me chills.
imagine going in a prawn suit in the middle of deadzone
Falling onto the deep or reach 8126m and return to the safe shallows
"I have not seen anything for like, a few minutes" that sir is how you know you're in the dead zone
This is a perfect movie scene
Being attacked by an unseen force only visible on sonar is peak horror
Even though with my experience I know how to combat the Ghost and that it isn't that difficult going into the deadzone fills me with so much tension and stress.
That's why you can save your game.
Lmfao i feel this, first time playing, didnt know what the deadzone was, all i knew was there were ghost leviathans if i went deep. Viewer asked to see ghost leviathans, so i took my cyclops out to see them. In my head, if i ascended, they would stay deep. I got out there, took my first bump, then started to ascend. They followed all the way to the surface and destroyed the sub 😔 lots of resources lost but a funny clip nonetheless 🤣
The fact the cyclops' name was maria just makes it so much better
