Diving deeper and deeper i found a cave and it guides me to a lava sea

    The guy is a size reference marker for the development team.

    You've stumbled upon the inactive lava zone. It's going to be even more incredible once it's done.

    Keep looking around that area and you will find the Emperor Facility.

    What I find most amusing about the Hell Biome is the temperature. You may notice that those lava beds are actually colder than the water near the surface. No thermal power for you!

    Please refer to this area with its official name "Active Lava Zone".

    Wrong biome.

    How are you in a seamoth at that depth? I think mine would be crushed past 900m. I think only my cyclops can go that low.

    Creative mode most likely.

    Probably in creative mode. Pressure doesn't matter there.

    Pretty sure that will change before the game is done.

    Water doesn't boil at that depth until around 200°C. Yet the coldest flowing lava is around 500-600°C. Which means every glowing spot there should be inundated with bubbles.
    Though that would probably make a lava impression out of the average hardware.

    The world of subnautica might have different pressures than our world does though, and maybe different type of water/lava (molecule combinations) as well. It's not implausible it'd need higher temperatures

    Higher pressure sure, but a different kind of water? If it's not H2O then it's not water. Period. Two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom make one water molecule, always and only a water molecule. And if the oceans aren't water, then it's really unlikely a human could eat or drink anything from that ocean no matter the technology used to cook it.
    There are even here on earth some different kinds of lava depending on exactly what combination of minerals are in it and the amount of dissolved gasses. There's a volcano in Chile that produces molten sulphur lava which is much cooler than most other lavas. And a really weird volcano named Ol Doinyo Lengai that makes lava that looks black when it flows and grey when it cools. So yeah, the lava could be cooler than most normal lavas on earth, but it would have to be hotter than the water, or else the rocks from it wouldn't be rocks.

    How about the devs just havent had the time to add something as small as bubbles around every bit of lava?

    I agree, especially since the game is still in development. Makes far more sense than there being a "different type of water"
