As you surely know, youtube has big trouble nowadays and youtuber are angry and/or fearful to the Thousands. So i tried to make yt a better place - by reporting. I reported/flagged people being toxic in one way or another: Racists, Sexists, Mobber, Bullies, etc, etc. Also, Porn simply does not belong on yt... So i reported those. And i now provide, by using a Wiki where i store them, Links leading to those people. So i made a Wiki to provide people with Links directly allowing to flag (and hopefully remove) toxic people of various kinds. Would you be interested, at all, in also reporting some of those? Fight some Bullies and such? Costs literally nothing and helps youtube (and the world)... Interested? If not interested, can you at least give me your opinion on this comment here?

Feeding fish to stalkers isn't only used for stopping attacks temporarily. If you feed them enough fish in a row you will 'tame' them and they start bringing you scrap metal pieces. Pretty useful overall when trying to stock up on titanium or teeth quickly. You can even drop a grav trap nearby to collect more fish for you to give the stalkers. They might eat some of the fish caught in the grav trap before you pick them up, but it only counts for taming if you hand feed them.

I think I know why there is no crush depth in the Emperor's tank. Despite being the biggest leviathan and much too big to fit in most parts of the map, the hatching enzymes are from relatively shallow water plants, which suggests that the emperor is more accustomed to shallow water than the deep sea. So because an emperor is used to shallow waters and not the crushing depths of the lava zones, the Precursors engineered her tank to have a less crushing impact on the last chance of survival.

[@TheLastBacon]

Maybe yeah - even though they supposedly lived out in the void, where I'd imagine they'd have to be accustomed to depth :)

[@Despon]

A few things you and the iceberg itself have missed out on: •There was originally an option to dig sand in the game’s earliest first versions, it’s purpose was to uncover outcrops, fragments and even some supply crates that were buried under the sand, this was soon removed likely for the same reasons as the terraformer not being craftable in the game. •The PDA’s voice isn’t a singular voice actor, the voice of the PDA and every other robotic voice we hear in the game (excluding the warpers) were made from stock text-to-speech voices (I presume Microsoft’s generic text-to-speech voices they have) and were mixed through audio editing software (presumably something like Audacity) to make them sound the way they are currently. •At one point in the game there was a cut tool that was meant to be able to pick out DNA from other fish and grant you a temporary buff when you injected the DNA into yourself, it even came with its own buildable fabricator which let you mix multiple dna samples together but was scrapped from the game mid-development, despite the fully modelled and animated tool and fabricator. I unfortunately don’t think its still able to be acquired via console commands like the terraformer. •A lot of the models and their textures were changed through development of the game but the most notable one was the mobile vehicle bay that was just a square object when it was crafted, the relevance of this stems from the fact that it was the longest thing in the game without a proper model and icon, I can’t fully remember if it was even textured or not but considering that it was earlier on in development then it possibly wasn’t. This entry isn’t as interesting to include but I found it strange nonetheless. •Take this one with a grain of salt, but there was originally a bugged / misplaced reaper spawn somewhere in the edges of the safe shallows, it had a very small chance of happening but it was still able to happen, this might have stemmed the other entry that reapers can come into the safe shallows if you are chased by them for long enough. •The game at one point had bad language in it; a while ago before the game’s launch, awesomecrunch live streamed an interview with one of the game’s developers and asked if the game was meant to have bad language in it at all and the developer answered that it wasn’t intended but the voice actor for Marguerite swore in her voice lines once and of course re-did the lines as the game wasn’t meant to have bad language. This also ties in with the sunbeam having it’s voice acting redone in a different tone, there wasn’t any mistakes in the voice acting, they just felt that the tone of the sunbeam personally should be less aggressive. •There was originally another entrance to the active lava zone which lead from directly under the front of the Aurora (many may remember this as it was removed late development due to it’s existence nullifying the need to go through to the lost river, the entire tunnel was patched up and cannot be entered unless you were to make it yourself with the terraformer). This change does unfortunately complicate the idea of sea dragons going up to the surface to drag down reaper leviathans for their dinner and adds a small plot hole. Another thing I would like to add is that a third entrance to the jelly-shroom cave was also present in earlier versions of the game in the grassy plateau but as well suffered the same fate by being patched up mid development. •In it’s earliest versions, the game had very very strange tall pillars of terrain that surrounded the map that had a very eerie ambience that played when they loaded in, these could be found when you swam out to the void, just outside of the game’s playable area. I personally would assume these pillars were put there to possibly mark how big they were gonna expand the map and what the limit was going to be, but the music that was seemingly specifically scripted to play when they were loaded in makes me think otherwise.

[@TheLastBacon]

Very good additions :) I especially love the last point since it isn't known by a lot of people!

[@Despon]

Indeed, I remember it all the way back and has been something not entirely known by everyone for some time

[@Despon]

I actually only just remembered this now but there was originally yet another alternative entrance to the inactive lava zone that you could access on the eastern fringe of the big mushroom forest as it enters the dunes biome, the tunnel was a wide crevice that would lead directly to the ILZ like the one underneath the aurora; this tunnel as well got patched up at the exact same time as the one the at aurora, leaving the only entrance being through the lost river from that point on. I wish they had left this tunnel in as a hidden entrance as it would make a lot more sense for the sea dragon to come up and grab some reaper leviathans for lunch as it’s just as populated with reapers alongside the crash zone.

16:42 Can confirm Reapers in the Safe Shallows. On my first Hardcore playthrough a Reaper attacked my Cyclops near the Aurora crash site, I bailed and fled with a Seamoth, came back later to find the cyclops hadn't been destroyed so I quickly repaired it and headed back to my base with it, but on the way a reaper decided to follow me all the way back to my base in the safe shallows, then glitched out, and wouldn't leave. The entire rest of that playthrough I had to scramble quickly to get distance from my base every time I stepped outside because the Reaper was right there, which greatly amped up the stress that the perma-death mode already had for my first run.

The 'Frozen biome in tropics' theory may refer to the fact that when orbiting the planet before the game ends in the neptune, we can see that there is a large white, frozen continent that should located at the north and south of the planets poles but has been mistakenly placed in the tropics region of the globe by the devs for the cutscene.

13:00 someone actually made a mod that lets you do multiplayer up to 2P it works, slightly buggy but works. They can join your game and so forth.

The Sea Emperor Crush Depth one should be 45o2 as that's how water pressure works. It's 100% fact. If one were to find an under-water cave at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, and they blocked off the entrance (like how the force-field for the entrance to the Sea Emperor containment facility does), then the water pressure inside the cave would become just the pressure for the volume of water inside the contained area. Unblock the cave and it adds the full pressure of the rest of the ocean outside, but otherwise, yeah.

The ‘ice zone in the tropics’ entry on the iceberg, which you note you don’t really understand what it means… I believe it is referring the fact that in the ending cinematic, when the character looks back to the left at 4546b one last time, there is an arctic continent seen on the opposite side of the planet to where the crater is.

16:40 When I used to play the old builds back in the Early Access days, I always saw a random reaper in the safe shallows after returning from an Aurora trip. It would happen consistently. I would go to Aurora, do stuff, go back and while looking out towards the lifepod, I would see a Reaper jumping out of the water. I once even freecam'd to the Aurora to get a closer look quickly for some reason and when I came back I saw a Reaper in my face. I am fairly sure that the build I played had a hardcoded Reaper spawn in the safe shallows when the player is really far away. It despawns when you get close to safe shallows tho, since I never saw it after getting back to the area around the lifepod. Now I'm really curious and want to revert to whichever build that was.

I did my entire playthrough of the finished build of Subnautica with my dad (who was a very early game tester back in like 2014, which I'm extremely proud of), and it was super fun. Surprisingly, there were a lot of things in the game (and in BZ) that I never even happened upon during my playthrough! (Such as many types of fish, the Sea Treaders, and the tameable pets like the Cuddlefish.) It was so cool to get to see these theories and learn facts that even I (a hardcore Subnautica fan) didn't know about. I find it interesting that I discovered the 'no water' glitch on my own when I got out of my PRAWN suit to save once, as we have a low end computer that tended to glitch the game to the point where we'd noclip through the ground with the PRAWN suit every ten minutes which unfortunately led to paranoid saving. (The no water glitch was scary as hell for some reason, thought I completely broke the game before reloading my previous save lmao) Also, I knew someone else had to have made the Peeper Leviathan joke! This was a great video, and it was super cool to learn about this stuff :)

IT'S AT 60%!" Some notable moments were definitely when a Reaper chased me into the creepvine forest, trying headphones with the game for the first time, turning around in the red grass zone after an eerie amount of silence and getting a close-up faceful of Reaper Leviathan and also DEATH (RIP my voice, it was my worst voice crack to this day), and (post-game, on the save before we left 4546B) sacrificing our beloved Seamoth to a Reaper Leviathan in order to keep it distracted while I scanned it. It was always fun switching the computer between us every now and then and then regretting it immediately, and we even ended up doing game theories while playing, such as who or what the Sea Emperor was (I was heavily convinced that it was the ghost of Marguerit Maida communicating through an undiscovered species, trying to save us from her fate - which I thought was death by Kharaa or being eaten by a leviathan, but my dad's theory was definitely more spot-on) :)
