I wonder if they will make another way to make food, for humans they can't just eat one thing all the time they can get sick and worse if they do that, maybe the creator will allow us to grow crop in our base or outside, personal I think it would be better if it was inside we could grow crop like potatoes or beans or carrots or something,

and if you ask where do we get the seeds from the aurora, of course.

the ship clearly a colony ship meant to go to other world why not bring crop to grow on other planets and feed everyone, and maybe they can give us a way to breed our own fish for a safe and stable supply of food, I think it called a fish farm

final thing can't they develop a way for a safe and clean water supply with out going out and have to get bleach or floating fish for water like a filtering system that give you clean water but cost a lot to build

honestly I hate having to go out for supplies ever few hours in the game

    I would hope that future humans have learned from history not to introduce foreign fauna and flora into an alien ecosystem. Eventually our organisms would get out and without the presence of other organisms adapted to eating them, they would become invasive. Plus I think it would be more cool if we grow native flora and farm native fish, which is what I bet they are planning.

    The water madness is worth another post in itself...

    The most recent update makes you throw up if you eat too much of the same food at once. This is the direction the game is going. The dev team (unofficially) said that the release after the next one will be a "farming" related release. What that means is anybody's guess.

    what if there was no edible food in the planet what then you would need your own crops and if you grow them indoor what harm would they bring

    Though it might be more realistic if humans couldn't eat anything in this alien environment (no defense against alien parasites, etc), I don't think it would be fun for the game, and it is reasonable that we would be able to eat this world (metaphor, not bad grammar :wink:) as it is an Earth-like environment filled with DNA based life (confirmed with upcoming research/transfuser mechanics). Also, all trapped organisms eventually escape, it's practically a universal constant, no system is perfect.

    Well the main problem for eating food on an alien planet would be that our body probably won't have the right enzymes to break down some of the complex molecules so they can be used by our body. If that is the case, you can get around it by for example making cheese or more precise use the enzymes from a creatures body to break down what you can’t digest. In the case of cheese we use the rennet from a calf’s stomach to turn milk into cheese. A similar idea results in beef aging. The beefs natural enzymes break down the tissue and thus tenderize it. For that matter cooking in itself can and does break down complex proteins.

    Parasites can be dealt with the same way we deal with them on earth: cooking or freezing. The latter is how sushi is made safe, which come to think of would be the most fitting food for a water world. We already have fish and seaweed we just need something rice like and we can make ET Sushi.

    Germs likely won’t be that much of a problem on earth there are only very few that are capable of infecting multiple species and those who are, are usually limited to closely related species. While we would not be adapted to fight them off neither would they be adapted to infect us.

    i disagree whit ppl that want there life made easy, to me the only thing the game should ad is more types of things to eat...and better respown times for fish....the rest is ok...if they want to ad crops that u cant grow in land or in your base its fine, but only things from the planet...and stop wanting a easy life , this is a survival game is suposed to be hard....go get fish and farm the bleach for water....i have 3 lockers full of fish and 3 full of water....in my game fish, coral and salt are extint ...muahahaha im going to destroy this world. then fix the aurora and go fu ck up another planet.

    Actually I have my base build and enough resource and food and stuff to be ready and, or build anything to be honest, two big shelf full of glass and one of copper and titanium and enough gold sliver and diamonds to kill you three time over and pretty much have every resource ready for the next updates

    Good for you, so stop asking for an easy life... in a survival situation you would have to spend more time looking for water and food than for any thing else... the only thing that needs ajust is respawn times and even that cant be too hi...to make ppl explore and go farther in search of stuff... or have distant bases so that when u use up all resourses you move to another and let the area recover.

    PS. i doubt that u have more mats than me ... and i dont lose storage space whit things that at the moment are USELESS like diamonds, just so u know ; )

    try four base room full of nothing but resources shelves and I want better ways cause it would be fun and easier and what wrong with asking for better ways and I'm worry the resources are drying up I wish they would respawn and you will never know what going to be useful in future updates so I store it all

    Perhaps you should take your conversation about who has the longest row of shelves somewhere else people might start making assumptions ;) especially since you are kind of disproving your own point about it being hard to gather resources instead of just being tedious.
    Honestly I would like farming food and fish. I found these rather interesting concepts for fish farms which would fit nicely with subnautica:
