And I came across something really eerie. Deep, deep down near the lava pits, there's another dropoff, but it leads to green, sandy waters like near the surface. I'm assuming that this is just an undeveloped area that they haven't worked on, it's the only way I can rationalize how odd it is for this area to exist. However, that's not the strange thing, it pales in comparison to what I found in this area.
This isn't the player model, he looks completely different. He doesn't move, he doesn't change position, no text is displayed upon seeing him, it's just a t-pose human in a dive suit that says "Wasabi One" 4,500 feet below the surface of an oceanic planet in a surprisingly cool and sandy location for being 100 feet away from active lava. He's suspended about 40 meters away from the ground, even if it doesn't look like it in these pictures. I should have thought to get out of the prawn to get some better shots, I might go back later and take some better screenshots.
The only thing I can imagine is that the developers spawned this guy into the world and forgot to remove him, releasing the update with him just sitting there in the world. Is this a sign that they might plan on adding ncp's for you to save in the future? Did the devs accidentally leave him in an unfinished part of the map?????
WHY IS HE HERE? WHAT DOES IT MEAN? IT'S DRIVING ME INSANE!!!

Do they always leave them in?
This has been floating around for quite a while, there's a thread on it here in the forums somewhere too. It's assumed that it was either placed there as (A) an easter egg, which IMO is highly unlikely given the.... Plans.... For that location... Or (B) was placed there to help with size scaling while fleshing out the area. Oh, and (C) just placed there for the lulz and will be removed once the area starts getting fleshed out. x)
So yeah, most likely case is "accidentally left him in" - and while having some other survivors would be cool (I wish, wish wish I could have met those other Aurora survivors
You can spawn those in. I'm also a big fan of oxygen, invisible, and build cheats. XD
I'm guilty of frequently using the Invisible cheat whenever I'm straying into Reaper territory xD
I keep telling myself "It's just a game, if you die you'll just pop back into your base/cyclops, it's no big deal..." and then once I cross over into the Dunes I falter... My breathing gets deeper... And I start to panic. I keep darting back into the saftey of the other zones without even going several meters into the terrifying aquatic wasteland that is the Dunes.... And then I switch on Invisible so I can just get on with the game.
I can't help it - I used to do that with the Kelp Forest because I was always startled by the Bleeders, but got over that. I haven't made much progress with the Reapers though. Funnily enough the Sea Dragon I'm more fascinated by than terrified by. I actually think he's cute. Until he swallows me whole, or nukes me with a magma projectile...... But I always forgive him because of that cute face of his ;v;
Yea, me too. No reason to really be scared of him/her/it at the moment. As far as I know there's one in each Lava Zone (I might be COMPLETELY wrong). You can slip by him, no need to be afraid. But Reapers, my friend, are a different story altogether. Stay well away from the Dunes for as long as you can, and upon entry practice the necessary safety precautions (PRAWN or Cyclops or something). Just... Be careful is what I'm trying to say...
The Void has a bottom?
No. I jumped into it in the PRAWN and let myself fall for a couple hours. There is no actual sea floor down there.
t an emptiness under the current biome with a perfectly flat rock floor.
This. You've fallen into an unfinished area for the story, not the Void biome found around the outskirts of the map.
But really, it would be fun to be deep underwater and you're suddenly attacked; you turn and find another person with claws attacking you...
