Hi,
Since about a month now every time I load up my safe file this happens. I am using the epic games version of the game.
Things I did:
- run compatibilty mode.
- reinstalling
- create a new safe
- check game files
I found some similair issues on reddit. But none of the solutions helped. I think the first game needs a giant bug fix. I included a video of what I experience. This was taken by me. The game also doesn't have any sound

That said, I'm familiar with your bug but I can't start a post of my own because even though it's been a day and I've made this reply (that I'm now editing) I still cant post. What a great system.
I know you have tried a ton stuff, so did I. That specific bug you have encountered is triggered in some way through audio - how? I have no idea. But this worked for me: Playing with wireless headphones alone. Oddest fix ever in my lifetime of playing video games. For me, this means that I literally cannot play the game unless I use headphones, but then there are the other game-breaking bugs. Hope this works for you, maybe just try using a different audio device.
Maybe some day UW will provide real support, and not just a place to post bugs, and push support off to other end-users.
As you can see here, I have the same bug that you do. But I've provided a bit more detail here:
Hi thanks for your reply.
I actually didn't think using wireless headphones would work (even as a temporarily fix) but also in my case it did. I watched your video and indeed all the bugs I experience. I noticed you're client version is from sep-2018, mine is from dec 2018, how come? (doesn't really matter since the bug is present in the december version of the game).
I tried with your finding a few things.
-Disconnecting wireless headphones while playing (no sound but game keeps working until I restart) I can quit but it loads normally back in.
- Disabling sound all together also works.
- activating sound when playing and loading back in results in the bug happening again.
I am still testing what happens if I transfer my savefile from my laptop to my desktop since I like to play subnautica on the go. my desktop didn't contain the game until now.
Greetings,
One thing i've noticed. changing audio inputs which I have a few of on my desktop. I switched from my USB headset to internal sound card. This seems to kill sound immediately. No game breaking bugs though
You need to confirm your e-mail. I just had the same issue.
