How Deep Have You Descended?

Hi

What's the deepest depth you've gone to in Subnautica? What did you see there?

I went 6000m in one place and the bottom was nowhere in site. In another place, 6000m down, I saw what looked like the landscape of the moon. There was a hole in the seabed and when I squeezed myself through it looked like I was in deep space. If made me think of 2001. My God, it's full of stars!

    I built a tunnel out of vertical connectors that went down to 500m. At that point I got bored and quit.

    Btw, the game supposedly stops generating anything past 3000m.

    Doesn't the (in)active lava biome start in some areas around 1000m, and goes to about 1300?

    If you go out to the edge of the map it goes down forever.
    Super spooky. Was waiting for a Reaper to spawn and ruin my day.

    I just went to 11,000m which is as deep as the Challenger Deep of the Marianas Trench. Nothing there. :smiley:

    But on the way back I got totally lost and disorientated, and actually ended up underneath the world's ledge. It took me 15 minutes of going here, there and everywhere before I stumbled on the way out >.<

    Oh, I also had a bit of a shock when the minisub lights picked out three small entrances toa large cave. As it loomed out of the darkness it did, for a split second, look like something huge, like the skull of a huge monster was coming out at me. :smiley:

    I was on 80k or something i think? I glitched myself through the floor while walking on the seabed and put speed on 10, so i basically fell all the way on 10 times the speed, still found nothing, except... weird glitches..

    10,000m got bored, spawned a reaper, climbed to 3,000 meters (you could hear the reaper the whole way up) spawned a ton of stuff, broke a cyclops. It was a good day.

    I went down ~3 km off the edge of the map right past the floating islands biome, under to the other side, and back up. At one point I went down to 3500 m, but didn't see anything.

    Like 250-300 meters...I only play survival and that was plenty scary for me :(

    Anyway, what's the point of even going past the distance stuff spawns? To look at sand?

    About 300m down because I have thalassophobia.

    As do I. I about jump out of my skin if I so much as hear a stalker or bone shark making that breathy hissing noise around me. As long as nothing looks like an earth shark, I can get through it. Fascinated with sharks. Have been since a child. Will never swim in any body of water that could potentially contain a shark. Even lakes have Duff hungry toothy monsters in them according to my brain. Subnautica can be difficult at times, but the need to explore is just too great. Thalassophobia be damned!

    If you're truly fascinated with sharks, read up on them a little bit and you'll be happy to find you're essentially never going to run into one. More people are killed by their toasters each year, learned that when I was 7 (former wanna-be marine biologist). I'm assuming you're talking about regular beaches, rivers, stuff like that, not shark tanks, but yeah.

    I have studied them passively since I was a wee ladd. Books and lots of shark week on discovery chamnel. Now I frequent youtube for shark studies. I used to boogeyboard on the pacific coast in dangerous white laden waters. Not a scratch or a sighting. Attacks are few in general unless something (usually man made) has them riled up. Like a meat packing plant dropping bloody waste in a river that feeds into the ocean. Which happened.

    I think the movie Jaws had much to do with people's fear of sharks.

    That's what I'm saying! So go enjoy that ocean bro :)

    When I was a little man, my dad took me to see the first jaws in 3d. he put the glasses on me and held me up above his head just as the shark jumped up on the back of the boat to swallow quint. I had to be about 5 or so. Think I freaked and kicked him in the face. He dropped me and I crawled under the seat.

    2100 meters. Departed from the Cyclops parked at 900 meters and 6 high capacity tanks on my back. Scary as shit going back up, wondering if I calculated the time right :)

    Descend to my level

    It was a time when stalkers sent you flying at lightspeed. This only took a moment or two to get here.

    Wow that's an early version of the game. Interesting to see how it's changed since then.

    I got bored.

    I had the down and drive forward button pinned for 3 hours (you can see the recorder time on the video I made of my boredom, don't worry it's cut from 3 hours to about 5 minutes). Everything starts to shake incredibly violently at about 60-80km (I open the inventory for some near disastrous results). I was hoping at some point that everything just flew off or broke apart, but it didn't happen. The game (while it shakes like crazy) is very well put together that even 130km didn't break it. You can still use stuff in your inventory (even though it's flying around the screen) and the models for things don't break in fantastic ways (I spawned a reaper at 100km).
