image3-in-1 On the Edge Of Release - Subnautica

Last week, we were prepping a 3-in-1 update for Xbox One launch. We passed the last hurdles with Microsoft, and were running through the final launch sequence checks, when this...

    Did the player's character take some LSD before getting the escape pod ? :P
    These things happen, at least it was discovered before you released.
    Best of luck locking this bug down :)

    This is very unfortunate. Every day since the announcement I had been checking my updates to see if Subnautica had been updated. This game could actually become one of the best ones I've ever played. I just love getting lost in it, playing for hours without even realizing it. However, I'll have to bottle my excitement and be patient. Take your time guys and make the best game that you can.

    don't worry its huge improvement over still making tweaks to the engine while being 3 updates behind

    When you decide to accept that Subnautica on Xbox One will never be fixed at this rate because there's always another delay :(

    A while after eating the shrooms it takes effect ...

    This gimmick should go into the game.

    I imagine we eat those shrooms. The vision goes crazy. Then music comes to play and we hear strange voices. Until the effects wear off ...

    Great, more time and resources spent on the console peasants instead of getting this obvious PC game working better on the PC.

    I predict that you'll get a lot of hate for this, but although I don't wholly agree I see where you're coming from. It does feel like a game meant for the PC, but it has also been quite the liberating social experience for me. Having me and a couple of mates sit around a TV either shouting at the man with the controller or just talking makes quite the evening. You can't really do that with other games and see the same results.

    But yes, though it pains me to say it, the game does feel like a PC game even when on the Xbox. I rarely play on Xbox, but just watching someone else I get that feeling.

    Hehehe ... not bad ... now only the strange voices ...

    (officer keen: seargent I ordered you to shrub that deck clean. why is it still dirty. try harder, harder, harder ...)
    (the girl on the poster: you are the best survivor the galaxy has ever seen. you will make it, make it, make it ...)
    (a reaper: come into my arms, I like snacks to eat. You are so yummy, yummy, yummy ...)
    - wait - (reaper: typical reaper sounds, repeating until fading)
    (the Alterra recruitment officer: You will see worlds no one has seen before. You'll never regret it, regret it, regret it ...)


    of course this could also be a playback sound when your vision fades while sleeping.

    Because peasants are continually slowing down progress of a society or civilisation, demanding resources and causing trouble for the superior noble class. They're a damned nuisance with absolutely no taste or class. Little more than beasts, they should know their place as inferior and mind their manners, impertinent dogs.

    I thrive on hate.

    I've seen too many potentially good PC games get ruined, or development slowed down, or end up as unplayable messes, just because the developers stopped focussing on making a great game and instead focussed on making their average game work on multiple platforms.

    When a game you paid good money for is performing poorly because it isn't optimised, and you see the developers messing around spending time porting it to console, it's like a slap in the face.

    Everytime it's almost fixed shit breaks... Please just hire a group of professionals to help out for a week or two and get the game fixed once and for all.
