Sandworm

KingCole

I thought this was a rather cool idea, and i know it was already bought up on STEAM (thats actually where found out some limited info on it) I was wondering if there are any plans at all to bring it into the final release? I think it'd be cool to see it and the Sea Dragon battle, it could also be used to fill mainly empty stretches of ocean floor, keeing a large territory to itself.

Ya i haven't seen much about that recently i hope it get puts in

As far as we know, that creature is very early development. More like a test than a genuine idea, so there's no perspectives for it as of now. (For what it's worth, the "detailing remaining sandy areas" card has recently been moved once more, this time to Unknown.)

I have an interest in a sand worm too, but mainly as a principally stationary reaper chomper that does not attack the player as long as the player is tiny because it would not be food worth getting up for. Approaching it in the Cyclops and maybe P.R.A.W.N. would get it to attack. I like the idea of at least one large predator having a reverse reaction to the Cyclops and the idea of forcing the player in the Seamoth or without any protection at all near such a giant for a scan (or resources as some form of cleaning symbiosis).

Oh, you mean this thing? Yeah, I remember it.



Yeah, sorry to disappoint you, but I remember someone telling me some months ago that the devs scratched this idea.

The video of it coming up and eating the reaper is why i thought it was such a cool idea "theres always a bigger fish" and what not. as for the open sandy areas, i am fine with a few areas like that ( as there are plenty of stretches like that in our ocean) as so long as theres some mega sized fauna filling them.

@KingCole Anyway, as I already told you, I'm almost sure that the devs scratched this idea.

It kinda looks like it ended up in the game as the crab snake...although the sand worm was a cool idea.

Yep,unfortunately the Sandworm has been scrapped by the revs and it won't be added in.

I think this creature was actually an early test the devs made so it probably wasn't even planned to be added in at the start.

KingCole

Well that's all very unfortunate.

ComicalSkate

Nope, it was replaced with the crabsnake.
