Hydrothermal vents will be an integral part of lava zone as far as I understand it. And yes, we already have a couple of them scattered around the world. Future entrances to the lavazone? Who knows.

Lots of good stuff in here. I definitely like the look of Metroid's echolocation. Seems incredibly useful for cave exploration while preserving the mystery. Oh this is perilous. I also like underwater rivers and freeze rays. For science! And mad sci…

(Quote) Hmm, I like the idea of being able to terraform rock when you got Rock Puncher DNA. I imagine a new tooltip "punch rock" when you swim close to a wall. Also badass punch sound effect, screenshake, and debris flying off in all directions. …

It sounds like you were expecting some kind of NS2 underwater. Or at least some team based multiplayer fighting action. While I agree that what you imagined might be a good game I'm pretty sure that Subnautica is not that game. One of the most high …

Unity games are written in a memory managed environment. That is a huge problem when it comes to performance. We do our best to mitigate the fact that Unity pauses the game for a short while to clean up unused memory. Sometimes we add a lot of new …

Yeah make sure to use the "look for driver upgrades" feature of Steam. Also make sure to verify the game's cache integrity. Please note that the game does become unresponsive for a short while when loading starts. My machine is pretty much the minim…

It's the holidays guys. Please bear with us for not working on the game for a couple of days. We'll be back going full steam in early January.

The Cyclops is supposed to be upgradeable by modules you can craft. I guess we could take that a step further and have NFS-like vehicle performance upgrades to engine, hull, and such.
-
Right now our top priority is bringing more gameplay to the game. That involves many things but might not involve more vehicles for a while. The free dive, Seamoth, Cyclops combo goes a long way in terms of exploration. There is mech-like exosuit pl…

When exactly does it crash? Start, loading, doing x, or playing for z minutes?
If you upload the Subnautica\Subnautica_Data\output.log on pastebin we might be able to find out more about the error. -
If you dig around a bit in Cory's concept art as found on the Trello board and the media page you will find…

While I do agree that we need more of everything in the game in general I would like to remind you that the tech tree is not the game. Yes crafting is part of the game and yes currently it is the most obvious thing you can d… -

Let me fix that for you. INSULT! NONSENSICAL STATEMENT INVOLVING PLANKTON, capslock, immediate ancestors, words!
In other news I have been working on a savegame featur… -
(Quote) We don't. I fact we hardly consider anything complete. Sometimes we give you very rough and unfinished stuff because our internal priorities have shifted to some other task and we have hardly any way to remove something from the game once…

Forsaken got it right. It had full 6DOF controls but also automatically rolled the vehicle so that your up/down is in line with gravity. If anything I would love to see …

Behold! This is what I'm lobbying for in our team. The border abyss.
As you can see the idea already gained some traction. Also as you can see I am a wizard when it come… -

You want to go all somersault, is that it? Not a joke question. I don't know what you mean by rotate. Obviously it must be something else than the current ability to look around. Or are you referring to 6DOF controls like in… -

Dude, don't do drugs! You'll end up all jelly yourself. Cool idea though

(Quote) Yes. In fact you can have a pet right here right now. Take a bunch of Peepers and Metal with you, locate a Stalker, feed them, toss metal at them. Observe. It doesn't work all the time but it is possible. Give it a try!

(Quote) Lots of good ideas in here. I'm sure we will see some of them in one form or another be integrated into the game.
I don't think we are going to have night-vision goggles though because we want dark areas to have a different ga… -
Sci-fi is a balance between leveraging concepts you are familiar with and concepts that sound cool and futuristic. We need the former to not get totally lost.
The periodic table is pretty much universal because it contains every possible… -
(Quote) Should be fixed in latest version.

Can confirm. Our new guy broke it. Our new guy fixed it. All hail the new guy!
Version 10610 should be coming up anytime soon. -
(Quote) You might be on to something...

(Quote) Glad you found this. This is intentional. We have huge plans with those territorial guppies. Huge plans. They are called Crash for a reason.

Yeah, stalkers put on their target detectors at night now. I wouldn't recommend going into kelp forest at night anymore. Not until we have something for you to help the situation. Hint, hint.

(Quote) Day time looks nicer than night time. Especially in the start zone. That's why we made days longer than nights. True, it doesn't show of our cool new night lighting as much as possible but then again we have dark caves and deep areas that…

(Quote) Yep, I did that. Glad you like it. I'm looking to put more of these gimmicks in game to make the creatures behave in interesting/natural ways. Leaping was low hanging fruit. Ideas are always welcome.

We certainly want your actions to matter and have the creatures react in a natural way. If you are a bad guy creatures will flee. But only those that witness you being a bad guy. Same for being nice.
