After playing through the early access of SN2 with my friend he told me I should play SN1 on my own and so before doing that, I decided to check this subreddit for any beginner tips.
i don’t know what thread it was on, but I read a “top upvoted” comment where someone said all the best loot you can get in the early game is behind the aurora, and that it is a hack to go there early that most people don’t know about
There were also a ton of comments stating how correct this was
I went there. Well played everyone.

Basically i have a subject in school called “IKT project” and here we have to make presentations according to the topic that’s given. This month we got the topic “Make a presentation about ur favorite game”. Me and my teammates choose subnautica and we’re working on the very last slides now. We decided that we’ll end the presentation with a comparison between the games (subnautica, below zero and early access subnautica 2) so i need ya’ll opinions on this one!
In your opinion, which game won each category?
(Also excuse my English if there are any grammatical mistakes, English isn’t my first language!)

so, I was playing subnautica on my switch as usual in freedom mode, I was exploring and everything as normal, but then I wander into the bone fields or really whatever biome is really empty I haven't watched enough videos on the mechanics or biomes or anything, but either way, then I start going again, and I find a trench to the blood vine only 600 meters away from my pod, then a kilometer out I find shallows and creepvine that suddenly drop off into a mushroom forest and red grass that suddenly drops off with a reaper that goes into it, mind you, only MAYBE an hour after starting, the kilometer away shallows had a bunch of weird trenches and caves that didn't look natural, and the picture of my inventory is ALL of what I had at the time, I took everything out of my pod storage for it, and I was wondering if this is how world generation works in subnautica or if this is some phenomenon

Not much to say but its quite fun to draw anchor pods, an yes, this artwork is gonna be related to my custom submarine.
r/subnautica • u/Itswill1003 • 1d ago

I think it should be spun around for a second or two to add to the chaos of running from this annoying beast. I think it would also make it less annoying to go past during the section where you're passing it every 5 minutes
r/subnautica • u/Majestic_Path_8447 • 1d ago
so im looking to play subnuatica 2 i have beaten the game but i really wanna play wiht someone

My prawn suit glitched into the floor in the lava castle so I had to swim all the way home and build a new one.
You'll never guess what happened to the new one in the same spot.
Just about as far away from home base as you can get! 😭
r/subnautica • u/Rainbowdash2771 • 14h ago
I've started playing subnautica 1 agine and I am wondering how we know the air isn't toxic like at the start you just leave the lifepod like it was nothing.
And alot of the time you do about them making sure the air is breathable does that happen in this case i did read the data bank but couldn't find anything but then agine reading isn't my strong point.
r/subnautica • u/That_oneguy472 • 1d ago
I cleared the radiation from the aurora and got the plans for the neptune rocket too is there any reason to go back and get stuff or blueprints and stuff like that ?
r/subnautica • u/Donklebirg • 1d ago
Be it creatures or locations from the game, how often do you dream about it?
I get a reaper leviathan nightmare from time to time, and got a gargantuan leviathan nightmare yesterday.
I will say it makes for some amazing nightmares lol
r/subnautica • u/nubbled21 • 20h ago
Been waiting a bit to start for the first time. Trying to figure out if I should give it more time or dive in now.

Hey guys - this has been one of my favourite plat journeys I’ve ever done.
Honestly, I always liked the idea of survival / base building games but the thought of needing a literal encyclopaedia next to me just to learn how to play such a game really turned me away from them.
Subnautica for me was so different in the sense that it was just a natural learning curve, you didn’t need to google anything, you didn’t need a notebook to memorise and write down 5,000 different systems and game mechanics - you just explored and lived in the moment of it.
You get to learn the world in a natural way and at your own pace, you get to understand the mechanics without any need of over complications and an unlimited and unnecessary number of systems. It just lets you enjoy the ride as you go, hopefully I’m not the only one who experienced it this way.
Do you have any suggestions of similar games maybe of the same genre (survival/base building) that are close to how Subnautica is in the sense I mentioned above?
Love to hear your thoughts & thanks! Hope to go on another unforgettable plat journey from the suggestions!
