So i was swimming trough the vast ocean of subnautica exploring and was thinking what would be cool to have there in the game, looking at all the creatures and outsmarting them is real nice, then i thought...what if we can get some kind of a laboratory where we could take the already hatched certain monsters that we have in our Alien Containment , take their DNA's and merge them together creating so called "Chimeras" . For example a stalker merged with a Sandshark and then creating a SandStalker, we could either use it as a pet then that would distract other animals while we are on a journey of exploring helping us do our mission (took the idea from Riddick movie from 2013 where he was surviving on an unknown planet and managed to pet one of the Hounds of the planet who was helping him distract foes and protecting him), or if we want we could make a choice and release it in the wilderness and then study how it hunts its preys and so on. There are so many other ideas i could think of merging all kinds of existing sea monsters currently released in Subnautica

this a creature that appers only in the mushroom biom so it is a like 1 of the normal creatures but...more weird. remeber the gasopods? so this cretures are like a fusin of 1 of those and 1 of the mushoorms also remeber those
worms that pup aut and scare the flyng crap aut of you well wen the player comes close baby worms come aut and attak you here is a drawing of how it woud look file:///K:/Users/Tuninos64/Pictures/wormpood.gif
Okay, if I'm parsing this right... What, like little crabsnakes?
Good God...you're like the Typo Whisperer or something. I have no idea how you managed to get that single line out of...all that...but it makes perfect sense.
Untangling that vowel movement...that's worth an Awesome any day of the week.
So what I get from this, if I'm right, is the idea is a special mushroom in the mushroom biome (I can't be sure if they mean Jellyshroom or the Mushroom Forest) that can perhaps spray toxins as a defense mechanism, like the Gasopods. Plus, if that doesn't work, they have small crabsnakes serving as defense.
Which frankly isn't a bad idea.
Edit: Also, another reading of "Fusion between mushroom and Gasopod" could be that it's a mobile creature like a Gasopod, but with a mushroom growing on it, with a defensive little crabsnake instead of the toxin clouds.
Between those two options, I'm going to agree with you that the first one sounds pretty cool. Second one...not so much.
EDIT: I should say, I don't know if that's making it in before v1.0, if at all.
Wasn't the Transfuser rather something that would trigger special effects on the injected creature including the player? It was not planed to be a DNA-Puzzler for Subnautica's Fauna or not? At least that is how I see it after reading the wiki.
I think that idea to mashup species has the same coding nightmare behind it like the modular Cyclops idea. It seems very questionable if we will ever see something like this. Cool nonetheless though.
I think you may have observed something else:
Um, did it look like this?
If so, see ThePassionateGamer's spoiler.
Do you have the slightest idea how much sheer dev time that would require? Programming in every single possible mix, or creating a system that does it automatically, and then balancing every possible combination? On top of delivering an entire current game? This notion is a perfect example of feature creep, the kind of phenomenon that causes games to never come out and become unwieldy budget-wasting monsters.
An entire game was created around just this concept.
You probably didn't read what i wrote in later comments: "Yeah i agree it being very hard to code and so on but its just ideas, let them decide if they can pull it of or not hehe ..But yeah i agree with you about the Transfuser...i've read about it already on my own but doesn't seem like it would be the same thing as i mentioned, but instead injecting it in yourself or in other animals and just gaining some of their abilities or something, for example giving yourself sandshark's DNA would strengthen your body and make it less vulnerable to other animals and such, injecting yourself with gasopod's DNA could help you get less vulnerable to poisons etc..." I do know it is real hard to pull of...but i'm just sharing my ideas and if they eventually run out of ideas and want to try it then why not...:P I have some experience with coding, not much but enough to know how hard things are for scripting and doing that would take a long time to script, but not impossible definitely.
