Hey Aci, if you're ever in need of an editor lmk

[@patrickkeller2193]

I'm pretty sure those Stalker used to be way more dangerous. They get aggressive for no reason and they do more damage.

[@Aci_yt]

👀 yeah I'll blame it on that xD

[@RileyLemon7]

Hey aci, in the last devlog you mentioned having problems with the steering system in the hydra sub. there is another vehicle mod called eureka that uses roughly the same steering system and it might be worth talking to the devs of that mod

[@snarfopotamus3627]

oh man this takes me back soo much stuff i remember from this era of subnautica i especially remember the old cyclops voice ive been looking everywhere for it cant find it without music over it though. i remember the old super seaglide ,when the skull was on its side, when the gun island was just a hole in the ground , the nuclear reactor was an outside buildable too much to remember.

[@PeytonRoach686]

I genuinely want to keep track on the progress of Call of the Void

[@Caos1]

Same!

[@Aci_yt]

Best way to do that is on the Patreon! :)

[@Dan0RG]

A blast from the past for sure... I remember that the Prawn suit was added in summer 2016, and by that point Subnautica was basically finished in terms of gameplay progression, just lacking the main story locations (and A LOT of polish). Pretty sure this experimental build was for the Precursor update, the first update I was there to see come together completely from scratch, graybox prototypes and all, thanks in huge part to having just recently discovered your content! I have memories of watching Subnautica content from all the way back in early 2015, but this is when I REALLY started following the game, so I remember this era pretty fondly. As an aside, thank you for contributing to igniting my genuine interest in game development. Wouldn't be where I am now (which is still not far, but at least I have ambitions)! Good luck on CotV!

[@phantmgamer3098]

He there I’m a big fan of your call of the void series……though I cannot donate because of my wallet,but will support you always. Keep entertaining us ❤

[@TheCuriosity8]

I miss the terraforming too, but only because the placement collision is such huge unforgiving boxes around each piece. Now the eclipse and night darkness of some biomes, that is really a loss.

[@CactusPommes]

I see this 8 seconds after he posted it

[@KD6-3005]

I'm so glad you uploaded this. I so missed early subnautica.

[@Sweden_Gaming8416]

Just think of it. Subnautica is 10 years old right now. But its still a great game with good graphics and so on. And of course the epic music.

[@theflyingchipmunk9123]

I am currently playing through the entire game again and having played it wayyyy back in 2014-2015, this game sure has come a long way. Those old days were so fun when people were just screwing around with the terraformer together with the entity gallery looking at unreleased stuff. Good times!

[@slipperyjelloarchives4084]

This is so nostalgic. I first played this game back in October of 2016 so this was cool to see. Great trip down memory lane.

[@JustCallMeTodd]

:) watching subnautica while playing subnautica is the best

[@joshuacouture479]

I miss the hell hole, I wish they returned part of it because traveling to the Aurora and looking down into a seemingly bottomless pit was terrifying. I also miss the old crystal model that was used for lithium.

[@RareJulez]

This brings me back.

[@SpiderMagoose]

Ah the hole to the lava zone brings back so many memories

[@mayatarapanova3248]

I discovered subnautica around June 2016 so i grew up with this version! Good old days ❤

[@MrNomad-0912]

Hold up, Aci said there might be a lava zone entrance in the blood kelp trench. Is this actually true?

[@LePumpkinBoi]

16:00 The Hell Hole, if that was kept in game then I bet there’d be theory’s and concepts about how the Aurora could’ve ended up falling into it, and many more

[@noyesser]

6:20 You can actually use the steam console to download any version of subnautica, if that version was on a public branch. I used it to replay an old version back when the void had a floor.

[@kubaxwot4629]

Oh god I remember watching those very old versions of subnautica on KZbin years ago

[@marioignat8146]

Hi Aci

[@Aci_yt]

Hi!

[@samstewart1640]

Here is a idea a mod capsule for a mobile home located in the temple of the void towards the beginning of the game?

[@enderpumpkin13]

Hey Aci I have two really good ideas for call of the void: if you plant crops in the hydra it helps out with the air supply is number 1. Number 2 is that the drooping stingers are harvestable and can be planted on a basepiece for base defense like if a creature attacks that basepiece it will become poisoned.

[@minecraftbuilder1159]

The nostalgia bro ❤

[@cyriell]

I was a bit late to the dev builds (like one or two big updates behind 1.0) it was fun speculating and cheating into precursor bases we didnt had access to like the sea empress facility etc to explore and more ^^, also the hellhole was my first way into the lava zone ^^ loved the way you were forced to use the scanner mode to navigate yourself through pitch black

[@MeatZer0]

I remember playing a version similar to this one in 2016-17 on Xbox, when i saw the Hellhole, i got nostalgia overload 😂

[@tonylyle1112]

Didn't we use to have an ugly box to scan fragments we had to collect?

[@sebastianhernandez-ih7fs]

MORE CALL OF THE VOID

[@AJTheSilence]

Ah I remember watching KZbinrs playing this build back then

[@ohnothepossum]

The PDA voice did some vocal training since then lol

Dude the original hell hole is so interestanting

[@GamerCave_]

Hey

[@Aci_yt]

Hiya!

[@alexschw]

So nostalgic!

[@isaac_aren]

I actually think the gargantuan skull looks cooler on its side. Looks more like a dead creature than just a prop and you can see the jaw much better. I also believe there was an entrance directly to the lava zone from the dunes. I would love to see that, as well as the unassigned biome areas like where the crag fields would go

[@tobyule]

Cant wait for call of the void!!

[@patrlim]

the old ui. the nostalgia.

[@Kinosho_Kawakami]

yeah you should've played an even earlier version because the one you played is too close to released Subnautica, missing mostly endgame stuff. i remember a lot of biomes around Safe Shallows being completely empty. i also remember an update to the lava zone. it was exciting to go there but it was as well empty of everything, even lava, with just carved out area. it was exciting knowing one day it'll be fully detailed. i also prefer the Exosuit instead of PRAWN. there's also a mod that allows you to build into terrain so terrain terraforming when building bases is sort of back. i prefer the "probability of dying/surviving" rather than Craig McGill's life story. it was shorter and gave you "realistic" odds which is all a survivor cares about. when you play Subnautica today in creative it takes a WHILE for the PDA to shut up and Craig McGill story definitely doesn't make it any shorter. the one thing i absolutely LOVE about early access and would love for someone to mod back into Subnautica is the original Emperor sound that didn't sound like an elf woman. it's an Emperor, not am Empress, and even more so all creatures are asexual so having any gender voice is pointless. and because it's in our heads words are unnecessary. our guy knows what the Emperor is saying and for the player all you need is subtitles to convey to us what that is. when we read it or anything in real life we don't hear our own voice inside our heads speaking as we're reading it. no, we know what it means because big-brain-smart and so should our character. i also don't need the philosophical monolog about grain of sand. i always mute whenever the Emperor "speaks" to me. i really want the OG Emperor sound back in game, you have no idea how badly.
