When I first went here, I almost died a thousand times to the Sea Dragon, almost burned to a Warper, then almost starved in the facility. Once I went through the portal I starved halfway to my Cyclops. Then I almost got destroyed by a Reaper moving it to my Prawn. On my way home I got swarmed by a reaper and some Ampeels. I turned on highest speed and booked it to the mushroom forest for repairs. When I got home by base was flooded.
Once you find the hole to the active lava zone you can actually just use the Seaglide to go down and reach the facility. You take a little damage but it's no big deal and you have plenty of oxygen for the trip at this point in the game.
Amazing vid dude. Every other video I came across was long and completely off topic. Yours was straight to the point. You just earned yourself another subscriber!
Thank you! I figured most channels are going for laughs all the time and very few actually show what you need with help in games so hopefully I can provide that
@@1UpNerdcore really though there's videos 30 minutes long where they have the point of the video split up in between them building their base thank you!
@@ichnicht1738 you’ve probably already found out by now. But the center of the giant lava cave is the “castle”. Inside is a thermal facility where you can get the blue tablet. Once you have that, follow this video to use it
Bring two blue tablets. Of which you can make a second one with a fabricator on your cyclops after collecting the first one with kyanite and a green cube.
Thank you for not spoiling anything story wise trying to go through as blind as possible but also don't want to spend my life trying to find one alien base
Like others have said so many videos were so long and not helpful, I just saw like five telling me to go to the mushroom forest warp. That things not on until I go here! Your video was so much shorter and helpful.
I was able to fit the whole submarine down here. Good idea on the prawn suit. With it being so hot I was able to just park it hidden to the right side of the area and kind of just hide out. If you follow the same entrance you came in through and hug the right wall until you hit the side of the facility you're safe. If you wanna cram your whole submarine down there of course.
Thanks was really helpfull and i was most appreciative of you cutting out that scene with the vision of the leviathing queen as not to spoil what happens
This video was a great help, thanks! I personally just used my Seaglide to slip past the Sea Dragon. Also to anyone who struggled to navigate the Inactive Lava Chamber due to it being so damn dark, adjust your gamma to a higher ratio in the graphics options. It'll make everything a lot brighter and easier to see. You can also kill the Sea Dragon by using a Stasis Rifle and releasing about 30 Gas Pods on it. Good luck!
I reccomend getting the ultra fins, rebreather, a upgraded diver suit and high capacity O2 tank. Next unlock the Thermal Plant Portal to the Gun Island. Basically go through the portal from the gun to the thermal, use the seaglide and just cheese it. You can make it with 20 seconds of Oxygen remaining.
Went all the way down there following your guide got down there just fine and realize I didn’t have the blue key because I didn’t know we were supposed to have it until after I already got down there
I love this game, but it has some serious pop in issues. I legit got into this facility without the blue tablet because the door didn't load in time before I got inside. I was wondering why the door I came in had locked behind me when I tried to leave. And it wouldn't unlock at first, and after seeing that I needed a blue tablet I thought I had softlocked myself inside. Luckily when I got out of my Prawn suit, the door unlocked and I could get out.
When he said sonar on your prawn I got happy and went all the way back to my base to take the sonar from my seamoth, got back to the lava base and it turns out it doesent work
Why does everyone keep using the mod for a seamoth at past 900m? I’m stuck using the clunky cyclops with the sea emperor wasting my power cells and getting stranded at the lava region. But the prawn is great.
Obv a necro but this is doable with a seamoth and seaglide only. W the mk 3 depth module, ultra high cap tank and reinforced gear you can park your seamoth at the hole in the lost river, right below the ghost leviatan, @ 890ish meters, and seaglide to the castle. Once your breath is gathered you can seaglide from the castle to the facility in the active lava zone. Did it years ago so it was at least doable then. I'm back watching videos because I am replaying the game.
I literally went there, explored for an hr, stuck in that cave but saw no base... I Think mine didnt properly load, even if i rejoin my save its still not there... There goes all my hardwork lmao. The location there just shows lava and what i thought was the void, everything out of the edge is so smooth looking and very deep until you're like 2.2k meters below
Finally made it into the Containment Facility using a blue tablet, however in there.. apart from loads of Ion cubes and portals, there is another locked off place that requires another Blue tablet! Any ideas where i find a second one? thanks!
Great guide - just a little story. I went down towards the entrance and then managed to glitch through the forcefield door without inserting the tablet because on xbox it takes a while to load. Guess I have to reload
god, I really wish there was a map that would expand over the places you go through. It would help relocate stuff but not spoil unexplored ones
There is. Sort of. PC only and a mod. Not too difficult
honestly with the way you use sonar, you would think they would have instituted a 3d map based on sonar activity.
Place beacons
@@zarkuz Yea but then theres too much beacons
@@Spacebugg turn some off
god bless you man, you made a short video that explains everything. everything else is like 30 minutes long doesn't explain shit
Thanks! I have longer format videos of just gameplay but when it comes to how to get or do something why drag it out 30 minutes lol!
@@1UpNerdcore your video was simple and straight to the point. keep up the good work

Same!

A video that is short and sweet, to the point AND you worked to prevent story spoilers? Kudos.

Thanks, I wondered around the castle for an hour or so before I gave up.
i have been driving my cyclops in circles for an hour. i was going insane. you just saved my life
Bring two blue tablets. Of which you can make a second one with a fabricator on your cyclops after collecting the first one with kyanite and a green cube.
do you need the two blue tablets to get inside?
@@xibro859 1 to get inside and the 2nd one is for one inside the facility

Amazing that u decided to cut out the spoiler. I can't express how grateful I am. Liked
Wow! Genuinely, this was very helpful! Thanks man!

Thank u!
EXACTLY!
Dude, thank you so much. Straight to the point. Also, thank you for not spoiling anything! :D
OMG thank you! I have been looking for ages and this just got strait to the point no blabbering on about irrelevant stuff. Amazing :)
I’m glad it helped!
I just found the thermal plant and that alien come on my screen telling me to come find her but I had no clue where to go. Thank you
Wait is the thermal plant a different place then where he is?
Great video, and straight to the point. I have found the primary containment facility before, but I forgot where it was. Thank you for helping me!
straight to the point no spoilers and very quick great help thanks mate
Thank you so much for this vid. Saved me a lot of panicking
Thanks bro and lol i was going so much farther and here it was thanks again♥️♥️♥️
I reccomend getting the ultra fins, rebreather, a upgraded diver suit and high capacity O2 tank. Next unlock the Thermal Plant Portal to the Gun Island. Basically go through the portal from the gun to the thermal, use the seaglide and just cheese it. You can make it with 20 seconds of Oxygen remaining.
Seaglide neglects speed change so I’d say charge fins for infinite seaglide use (the charge is greater than the consumption)
Thank you so much this saved me time, this game always hides everything
'dont bring prawn suit or you have to jump over the rocks'
me with cyclops: i am 4 parallel universes ahead of you
Thank you so much I thought the entrance was in the same cave as the thermal plant. Cheers mate
I’m glad it helped!
Thank you SO much.i really appreciate cutting out the story spoiler.
THANK YOU FOR CUTTING OUT ANY SPOILERS!
Thanks this video was very helpful. I know where to go now.
Thank you so much ! And thank you also for not spoiling the story
Ay yo thanks for the help man couldn't find it now I can thanks
You helped me sooo much! Thanks Mate good Video!
thanks so much u explained it thoroughly everything else is like half an hour good job
Went all the way down there following your guide got down there just fine and realize I didn’t have the blue key because I didn’t know we were supposed to have it until after I already got down there
Thanks man I was having trouble.
Would be nice to take the seamoth down there, thank you for the direction tho!
So helpful thank you very much, made is 10x easier with you using the sonar
Thank You! I can finally go to the Primary Containment Facility.
I’m glad it helped!
really appreciate how you cut out some of the cut scenes
Thanks! Nice and quick explanation.
Thank you for not spoiling it
Thanks for this, i found it but my game crashed and couldn't find it again
Thank so much! This helps a ton.
This guy should have more subs!
Thank you!
Great intro great video 👍

When i got in a mini version of the sea dragon spawned right by me! I was so scared!
😂
For some strange reason I didn’t register that you may have also done updates on Subnautica while it was in development as well
I didn’t, I just did tutorial type videos
Thanks for not spoiling
Thank you this helped soooo much!
oh my god, I ran around the area a million times and never looked down x.x
When I was looking for it, I was looking for an entrance on the wall! I should've looked down more!
Which entrance did u use? Did you use the entrance that is by the lost river tree or the one that is by the bulb zone
very good and thx for no spoilers
3:00 what you did there was amassing
Excellent description. ty sir
Thank you!
I don't usually give anyone like but you deserved it 👍
Thank you!
@@1UpNerdcore I've beaten the game about 10min ago :)
Would it be easier to go here by the portal in the alien thermal plant warp gate
I was thinking the main facility was somewhere else in the lava zone and then I stumble upon this hole and I was like oh-
When he said sonar on your prawn I got happy and went all the way back to my base to take the sonar from my seamoth, got back to the lava base and it turns out it doesent work
I think he meant seamoth
No the prawn has a separate sonar upgrade
Do you think I could do this with just my prawn suit? Or should I get the cyclops?
I'm not sure why you say to bring the Prawn. I was easily able to get the Cyclops down here no problems. Good video though.
Probably because you'll have to leave the cyclops down there if you take it all the way
I didn't. I got the Cyclops in and out of there loads of times
Why does everyone keep using the mod for a seamoth at past 900m? I’m stuck using the clunky cyclops with the sea emperor wasting my power cells and getting stranded at the lava region. But the prawn is great.
Thank you For The Short video!

Yea sounds like a glitch sorry man
Stupid question to ask, but how did you get your Seamoth to go beyond 900m? I have the Mk3 crush depth upgrade, but 900m is as far as I can go
I’m in creative mode 👍🏻
Could you also go down with the Cyclops? As far as I heard the maximum depth of the Cyclops is 1700 meters.
You need the prawn for it
The only way the Sonar makes it easier on the Seamoth is if you're using cheats. Otherwise crush depth for the Seamoth is 900m.
I’m glad somebody else said this. I was thinking the same thing. It’s not a real tutorial if you’re using mods.
Finally made it into the Containment Facility using a blue tablet, however in there.. apart from loads of Ion cubes and portals, there is another locked off place that requires another Blue tablet! Any ideas where i find a second one? thanks!
Once you get a tablet you can make it at the fabricator with Ion cubes
Brilliant! Thank you :) @@1UpNerdcore
So when I went to inactive lava zone I went in to the castle found a secondary containment
I don't know where I went but a ghost spawned near me
The lost river spawns 1, find a smog-fall and jump down it.
Great guide - just a little story. I went down towards the entrance and then managed to glitch through the forcefield door without inserting the tablet because on xbox it takes a while to load. Guess I have to reload
Same, but it wouldn't let me do anything:(
Thank you so much I actually made it there its so cool oh and I know what the cutscene is
bro i knew instantly i was not about to get through that with the prawn suit so i just took my whole cyclops in there lmao
worked out amazingly btw
Perfect thanks! Quick and easy
thank you soo much because i was just lost
Thank you this helped a lot
I found this place and then was like "bro where is blue tablet lol"
I grappled and flew on the ceiling of the ALZ but that works too
very concise. thank you
i have a lava zone entrance that has the lava castle and primary containment facility hole right infront of it
Thanks dude really helpfull
Thanks for this 🙏
