I know it’s just straight up wild speculation at this point but I’m craving a screenshot real bad.

    Hate to say it, but it may be a while. It was just middle of last year when they started the search for a new story writer. I’m not even sure if they’ve put keyboard to code yet. I think Below Zero took 2-3 years, so it may not be until the end of 2024/start of 2025 before we get any previews

    I actually just replayed the OG Subnatica, it was fun, I’d forgotten just enough to make for a good play through

      I haven’t replayed the OG since they all that cool shit from BZ. Maybe I’ll fire it up this weekend.

        The only thing that bugged me was the dang Degasi bases on the island. I’ve put a lot of hours into Subnautica, and for all that time I still get lost trying to get to all three bases.

        One cool thing to try, is putting two of the new large rectangular pieces side-by-side length wise (no connectors, just attached them) - it probably works if you try attaching them by the short ends, but it’s not as cool as the long ends attached to each other

          I assume it adds a little connector between them and it doesn’t just make a mega room

            Not quite a mega room, but it auto creates (4?) doorways, so you basically step from one room directly into another. IMHO it’s nicer than the corridors/connectors that connects the older compartments

              Very cool. I’ll going to restart the game this weekend so It’ll be a while before I’m building the big room but I’ll keep it in mind.

              Thanks!
