I've discovered I might have a major issue with my PC with running Subnautica. For the past few days I've been unable to play the game and for the life of me I can't wrap my head around it. First it happened on experimental as that's what I play. I reported what I was encountering in this thread
http://forums.unknownworlds.com/discussion/140583/experimental-latest-build-causing-game-freeze-and-subnautica-not-responding#latest
So I was curious and decided to uninstall the game and then install it fresh, to make sure things were going to run okay I opted to not go for the experimental branch just yet. The result of this is that I've encountered the same exact issue I was running into before in the thread I linked on the stable build. This is a red flag for me, this means that something on my PC hardware or software is causing my issue. I've tried running stable with and without the -force -d3d9 command and the result is the exact same.
As soon as I try to enter the water the game screen blacks out and then goes to white and then I get the program is not responding popup from windows.
since I know what's going to be asked here's the output log and also my dxdaig

We're currently running Unity version 5.2.3f1. Unity have since patched the issue in Unity 5.3.2. We'll hopefully upgrading to this version on the 'experimental' Steam version of Subnautica soon.
**touches wood**
Oh yes please, it's more or less unplayable as it is at the moment. My problem is not quite the same, for me the driver simply stops working, resulting in a frozen screen, but the game itself keeps working, i.e. I can still move and hear all sounds.
Crossing mah fingers cause out of all the games I own this is probably one of the most visual pleasing and calming games in my library.
edit update:
well trying to play the game today has amounted to nothing, still getting the same issue when I tried earlier and the last update that was around 12 mbs is causing my graphics driver to die. Guess maybe it's time I shelve the game for a while and maybe come back in a few months *sigh*
edit 2:
just for good measure Obraxis here's the output log I got

these two lines stuck out like a sore thumb at the bottom.
This is on version 28636

please fix it as soon as possible my game is unplayable
@Icewave we just upgraded our Unity version to 5.3.3f1 on Steam Experimental. We're hopeful this will fix the remaining AMD issues (we dont have too much control over GPU issues). Use this guide to switch and test: http://subnautica.wikia.com/wiki/Experimental_Mode
Hmm just tried it and I got past the loading screen but as soon as I'm able to move around my graphics driver decides to take a dump.

I might have to end up getting a new GPU in order to play Subnautica in the future if this is going to be the mainstay for the future of the game.
Yeah I'd post the log anyways, more information for the devs the better
You need to copy it on pastebin and link it here.
not so much all you need to do is copy that link he put up and paste it in the address bar and load it. The text for the log then shows up. Sometimes that doesn't always work though.
You do notice why the link he posted will not work, right? And why he was correctly advised to upload the file and then post a link to said upload?
