Subnautica: Beyond

Subnauticfan

Alright so I had an awesome idea for a new subnautica game: Subnautica: Beyond. It would combine the maps of the existing games and would have some cool new vehicles! Sorry I ran out of time so tell me if you want to know more! Alright first off are the vehicles. This game has all the vehicles from both games and some new additions: The Remotely Operated Vessel for Exploration Reasons, or R.O.V.E.R., is a remote controlled small vehicle that can be docked at a vehicle with the ROVER docking bay upgrade module or a remote vehicle bay (detailed later). It has 2 arm module slots, 4 normal module slots, and one master slot that can fit any vehicle upgrade, like the cyclops shield. There is also the Reefdive, a huge sub, and the Multipurpose All-environment Capsule, or M.A.C., the first flying vehicle that functions similarly to the Seatruck. The parts of the Reefdive must be built separately and include the bridge, aquariums, habitation, generators, observatory, moonpools, cyclops moonpool, and seatruck module storage/scanners. They would be relatively cheap for this size of a sub but due to the complexity each survival player would only build one. More details soon to come!

The MAC is Subnautica’s first flying vehicle! It has a freeze height that starts at +500m but increases with depth modules all the way up to +1500m! With this, you can build a flying base high in the sky (more on that later)! It has many modules, like the Seatruck, and starts with the capsule. The available modules are the aquarium, habitation, storage, fabricator, teleportation, hangar bay, scanner/remote vehicle bay, and power. The hangar bay can fit 2 vehicles and can be placed in any position on the MAC. The power usage can be switched between the built-in power cells and any attached generator module. Water mode takes the least power, land mode medium, and sky mode the most power. The possible upgrades are perimeter defense, horsepower, depth modules 1-3, torpedo bay, shield, energy efficiency, environmental generator (sea-thermal land-solar sky-wind), and radar. The environmental generator upgrade also gives you a special perimeter defense field for the biome you are in (ex: lost river-acid field). More details soon to come!

New biome alert! The Rift biome is a new biome that goes down from around 1000m in the highest points of it all the way down to 3000m! It cannot be explored without advanced dive modules and a new material, called Architect Alloy, will be exclusively found here. When you first approach it, your PDA will warn you of high levels of mutated Kharaa emitting from the rift. The main predator in this area is a mutated Sea Dragon Leviathan. There is an alien facility in this biome that contains the blueprints for the Ion Cube Matrix, used to make an Ion Reactor, the fragments for which are found in the surrounding area. More details soon to come! Next I will post a chart of possible new base pieces and some concept art! Oh if anyone has any ideas for rift and sky mobs, I have made one but I am open to suggestions!

LlamaDude

Interesting Idea!

Subnauticfan

@LlamaDude there is more to come soon!

juniorhen

This is very cool and i think if you can add the function that allows the change of those car parts will really make it more interesting

Subnauticfan

You can exchange them (and don’t worry about them falling in sky mode because they will float) much in the same way as the Seatruck, just to make it easier. Also, what do you think of...
SPAAAAAAACE?
(little Portal 2 reference for you there)

KGANNE

There could be flying leviathans that evolved wings!

Subnauticfan

@KGANNE Yep! As soon as I get around to posting the art, I have put in a Leviathan called the Skydive or Skystrike Leviathan that lives in both the air and the water!

Cant Wait for more ideas I think it is a great idea. Ok ima go scare myself playing subnautica

Subnauticfan

Alrighty please excuse my writing I was tired but here is the art:






Order: MAC, Reefdive, Base pieces, base pieces in use, ROVER, concept art side 1, concept art side 2. I will try to get more details to you soon!

omg new ship what if a new ship was there after the gun was disabled a ship called spacesearch was sent with a bunch of cure but was atacked by skydives and had 2 pods who had survivers pod 5 with he returning character from game one and the 2nd one with below zero girl and yo could pick your pod if pod 5 you get boy pod 2 girl and the space ship would go boom

aurora_go_big_book

and would look like

aurora_go_big_book

the cave is a A

aurora_go_big_book

and the hole withe gray held the pods

aurora_go_big_book

please do this all my suff has been said no to

Subnauticfan

Well... It would kind of defeat the purpose if you sent 2 people who already had a bunch of knowledge of the planet to 4546B, but I’m going to add in the ship! And at some points you will be able to switch between an Alterra guy who crashed and a Cyclone (copyright) employee who uses a new piece of architect tech that allows her to propel herself throughout time! She will first go to the Aurora before it exploded to fill in some Subnautica story gaps. By the way Cyclone would be a rival company but if you are reading this devs you can change it if you want.

aurora_go_big_book

soorry im still new to the first one and I just heard of bz last week and i dont even own a copy of bz

aurora_go_big_book

and we could make a two new peaple

aurora_go_big_book

and by the way I woul love if you checked out my idea subnautica new life its was an idea inspired by this

aurora_go_big_book

im ganno make more of the ship

aurora_go_big_book

sneak peak here

aurora_go_big_book

thats it but crashed

aurora_go_big_book

200m away from both pods

Subnauticfan

Hm I feel like it should be a bit further away from the pod(s). Plus I made more art that I will post when I have time. Trust me it might be confusing and please do not criticize my drawing capabilities.

aurora_go_big_book

ok i just was giving base structres of it

aurora_go_big_book

what if there was a teloscope room to go with the whole idea of air travle and a air upgrades for the drones in the scanner room

aurora_go_big_book

what about 700m

aurora_go_big_book

also can there be a peaceful mode for this game [new fish new danger]

hmmm great idea

I will have to look into how far away the Aurora is from the lifepod to get an estimate

Not exactly sure what you mean by “new fish new danger”

aurora_go_big_book

oh like if there's new fish wich are harmful can hurt you so i would like to not get hurt by them
