Here is what Steam has to say about Subnautica:
Subnautica is an underwater adventure game set on an alien ocean planet. A massive, open world full of wonder and peril awaits you!
You have crash-landed on alien ocean world, and the only way to go is down. Subnautica's oceans range from sun drenched shallow coral reefs to treacherous deep-sea trenches, lava fields, and bio-luminescent underwater rivers. Manage your oxygen supply as you explore kelp forests, plateaus, reefs, and winding cave systems. The water teems with life: Some of it helpful, much of it harmful.
After crash landing in your Life Pod, the clock is ticking to find water, food, and to develop the equipment you need to explore. Collect resources from the ocean around you. Craft knives, lights, diving gear, and personal water craft. Venture deeper and further form to find rarer resources, allowing you to craft more advanced items.
Build bases on the sea floor. Choose layouts and components, and manage hull-integrity as depth and pressure increase. Use your base to store resources, park vehicles, and replenish oxygen supplies as you explore the vast ocean.
What happened to this planet? Signs abound that something is not right. What caused you to crash? What is infecting the sea life? Who built the mysterious structures scattered around the ocean? Can you find a way to make it off the planet alive?
The ocean teems with life: Use the ecosystem to help you. Lure and distract a threatening creature with a fresh fish, or simply swim as fast as you can to avoid gnashing jaws of roaming predators.
Build a Pressure Re-Active Waterproof Nanosuit, or PRAWN Suit, and explore extreme depth and heat. Modify the suit with mining drills, torpedo launchers, propulsion cannons, grappling hooks and more.
As the sun goes down, the predators come out. The ocean is unforgiving of those caught unprepared in the darkness. Areas that are safe to explore during the day become treacherous at night, but also reveal a beauty that those who hide from the darkness will never see.
Cave systems wind below the sea bed, from dark claustrophobic passages to caverns lit by bio-luminescent life and burning-hot lava flows. Explore the world below the ocean floor, but watch your oxygen levels, and take care to avoid the threats lurking in the darkness.

They don’t really seem to bother your base all that much I built a small base in the crag fields with a scanner room in search of fragments and they never attacked the base unless you’re right next to them they don’t really seem to care unless you make lots of noise, just like the amp eels they’re pretty scary at first but once you’re around them for a while they’re not so bad.

Best building tips I can offer: 1. Keep it minimal early game, all you need for a base while you're still centered around your lifepod, is storage. 2. solar panels lose effectiveness at depths greater than 100m. 3. Scanner rooms are extremely useful, everywhere, never a waste to build one (just be careful in stalker territory, they will steal your camera drones). 4. Nuclear reactor is the best energy source; 4 reactor rods, keeps your base running for the entire game, you MIGHT need to replace 1 rod after you get back from the end of the story. 5. A three level alien containment, populated with 2 peepers, 2 reginalds, and 2 bladderfish, will keep you fed and sustain itself indefinitely. 6. Bio reactors work best for small structures; outposts, listening posts, anything that it doesn't matter if it loses power at some point. 7. Use Geothermal energy whenever possible, in conjunction with any/all other energy sources. 8. A two level alien containment populated with two crashfish eggs, will provide propulsion cannon ammunition for the entire game, and sustain itself. 9. When making your "great descent" to progress the story, be sure to take the resources to build an all-purpose room, bio or nuclear reactor, moonpool, 3 hull reinforcement, and upgrade console. 10. Best places to put the rocket are, The Mountains just as far as you need to go from the QEP moonpool (if you're new, don't worry, this'll make sense when you find it), or the floating island.

7 Nuclear is the worst, for sure. Hard to craft, waste of resources, way more power than necessary. One bio reactor with a grow bed provides infinite food, water, and energy. Just don't leave scanners going and the energy will sit there forever while you're away, and you can just throw some fruit in the reactor when it gets low while you're using it. Thermal is less maintenance so it's less annoying for charging batteries and scanning, and good for water filters (though water filters are kind of a waste of time), but honestly everything past bio is overkill. A functional base shouldn't need more power than one bio reactor can provide. If you need more power than that, you're probably just wasting time and energy building stuff you don't need. 10 You only have to visit the rocket 5 times before the game is over. Build it wherever is closest to your main base.

I’m considering that tree as a base location because it’s so damn cool... But the lack of easy surface access is very annoying, especially since the mobile vehicle platform won’t work underwater. The easy access to the Lava Zone and teleportation network makes it almost worth it.

I found a spot that is on the edge of 4 biomes. Located on a cliff, it touches the safe shallows, the green kelp forest, grassy plateaus, and also the dunes biomes. This spot is shallow so you don't need any depth modules to reach it and is close to a huge amount of resources being on the border of four biomes. It also has the added benefits of being close to the the cave entrance to the jellyshroom caves and there is also a geothermal vent about 200-300 meters down the sea cliff. The only major drawback (But I saw it as a challenge) is that a Reaper Leviathan patrols very close to your base, but since your base is technically in the safe shallows area, he won't attack your base. He did a few times swing by to try and take a shot at me while I was building my base, but he'll head back to his patrol area soon after. Also, the Reaper's patrol path is between you and the geothermal vents and there's nothing but sandy openness between it and the cliff your base is on. It's possible to do it and holy sh*t is it scary. lol Good Luck.

Months ago I did have a bug occur in my game where a Reaper Leviathan was "stuck" in the Safe Shallows and would chase me everywhere in that area. Never really safe with the big ones around.

@sempermilites87 6 жыл бұрын

Though it maybe a bug, but I had this happen in my current game (Hardcore Mode) and I realized why. I wanted to try out the gas torpedoes on my Reaper neighbor and it didn't really work out. I had the defense field installed though so I was able to get him off me. HOWEVER, what I found was after a Reaper gets zapped, they run away in some random direction away from you. This then changes their patrol area and now I had a Reaper closer to my base in the grassy plateaus. I had to get rid of him so began a 20 minute battle in my prawn suit. I also realized as well that when a Reaper grabs hold of you, he also thrashes around in a random direction and my brawl ended up ending in the safe shallows next to my escape pod.

There is all the big ressources deposit except salt et lithium (but you can find lithium in small form) and even the coral plate for components. There is thermal power and uranium deposits nearby as well as lots of flora for the bio-reactor. The PRAWN with a drill is needed, I made my entire base with only ressources I found there.

do you know where the lava castle is? in that area, you can leave via the exit to the Lost River area (kind of a spiral shelf that leads upwards), or the opposite way, and then rising up along a large hole into a big cave; if you turn right and go down again, you will enter the area with the big lava lake and the primary control facility, so don't do that. The border between the actual lava area and that cave has a juvenile ghost leviathan at it. pass the ghostie, enter the cave (you will see 2 river prowlers), and move forward until you hit the vertical wall, and you can look up from there to the right and see the exit to the cave. to your left will be a large pillar of black smokers, which is where you build your geothermal plants. build your base along the wall nearby. the exit of the cave leads to a an area with a lot of bulb bushes, and a 100m away there is a very large and perfect rock arch, where a lot of bonesharks hang out, so that would be the other way to look for it.

You see the room before the facility that collapsed on the floor where the is a dead leviathan in the middle, well from here you go to the big tree with the eggs on the middle, you go behind and you'll see It's going down. From that you follow the cave and you arrive on the inactive lava zone with the lava castle on the middle. You'll need to go in with your Prawn, there should be an entrance somewhere, it's the energy core where you learn ion battery. From here you can find the entrance to the active lava zone.

I'd say the best late game base area is the cove tree in the lost river, there are no predators other than a river prowler at the entrance and it has access to deposits, the lava zone and the lost river. There are several geothermal vents (small ones) which you can build around and use thermal power. The brine is also from my experience harmless in that area. There's rubies, lithium, gold, titanium, copper, uraninite (a LOT of it), silver and sometimes lead. The path to the lava zone is a bit long so you won't have to deal with warpers which roam the entrance to the lava zone unless you make one mad and it follows you back. The area is very beautiful and calming and if you make your base in the right spot then you'll have access to see the cove tree with the ghost leviathan eggs.

@parapsycho13 6 жыл бұрын

I built my first base along the cliff face near the thermal vent that you mentioned in your number 1. My second base was built at the foot of the tree with the ghost leviathan eggs. It's a nice safe spot with no predators and plenty of thermal vents to power your base. It's also convenient for launching forays into the Lost River, Inactive Lava Zone, and Lava Lakes. It can be hard to set up, but with enough planning and a fully loaded Cyclops, you can do it all in one go.

It’s free of hostile fauna, has quite a bit of resources (although you’ll need a PRAWN suit with a drill arm to get most of it) and provides handy access to both the Lost River and Lava Zone. Considering Kyanite can only be found in the lava zone it makes much more sense to have a base near the entrance / exit to the zone where you can do the upgrades, rather than spend ages ferrying it out the Lost River to wherever your base is. Getting around the Lost River in the Cyclops can be rather tricky in places, too, so I build the base, park the Cyclops over it and use a Seamoth or PRAWN suit for exploring / resource gathering. OK so you need to load the Cyclops up with building materials and work it through the river to the cove but it’s better to do it once rather than keep making round trips. Just don’t do what I did and forget to bring the PRAWN suit the first time… For this base, a reactor is the best choice for power (nuclear or bio, there’s plenty of fuel for either to be found in the area) and a Moonpool is essential, as are a fabricator, modification station, grow beds, a water filtration machine and storage lockers. I don’t bother with alien containment at this base as there’s enough fish around to keep you fed if the growbeds aren’t enough.

The northwest Mushroom Forest was my pick. Good location between a Kelp Forest and a small section of Safe Shallows and still close enough to every biome in the game. I imagine building one near the Sea Treader's Path would be useful too since they dig up free resources as they walk.

So putting down a small base with a ton of thermal generators at the vents, a moonpool and some recharge stations to act as a rest point

You only need a base big enough for your storage and other manufacturing machines with a moon pool. That's why it would be nice if it had a small co-op ability share the responsibility compete with your friends to see who can build the best among other things.

Definitely agree on the safe shallows/kelp forest/grassy plateaus location. That's where I built my first base. As a happy accident, I wound up being only about 150 meters from an entrance to the Jellyshroom caves, so even high-tier resources were nearby and accessible once I upgraded my seamoth's depth module. I only built one other base before completing the game, and it was in the Tree Cove sub-biome of the Lost River. It's a relatively safe place with no hostile fauna, has smokers for thermal power, and contains one of the entrances to the Lava zones. I used it primarily as a refueling station for my Cyclops and a staging area for expeditions into the Lava Zones.

In fact, it is a pretty important survival skill to know without relying on technology to do it for you.

I am new to the game and I made my first base right next to the escape pod, then my second base 500 meters down inside the cave system with the teleporting monsters, and not far from that the giant monster octopus too. It is a really dangerous place. I went there when I first got my first prawn suit and I couldn't get back out of the area because the cave walls are too steep. Though I eventually got it out when I finally got the submarine which just barely fits through. It doesn't seem like it was a great location for my second base as a new person, but it is next to the alien base and the giant fossils. I can't get into the alien area yet, but I know I will be back to check it out later, which is why I built the base there.

I just built right next to the life pod (and used like 30 solar panels for energy). I used general purpose buildings with 5-6 windows each (the lighting is beautiful, especially with a bunch of potted plants in the corners), and throwing in a few separate buildings or tubes with a bunch of reinforcements on them will keep the base strength up. I run sea moth with depth upgrade and 3 storage units, so I don't really have to be close to different biomes since I can just head to each one every once in a while and stock up on resources, then put them in the giant line of storage lockers in one of the side buildings on my base.

I really like building a large base near the thermal geyser that's towards the mountain. Not only is it a good place for reactors, and a source of limestone and sandstone, but it's a good central location in the world so very few things are far away. Another is the mountain. Not only a very safe place to build, with natural plants growing, but it's also a teleporter hub. Late in the game when you unlock all the teleporters, having a base there will help facilitate fast travel. I also like hanging out in the Grand Reef. It's one of my favorite biomes. It used to be a lot safer, but they added warpers, brain crabs, and a leviathan. So now the safest biome that isn't the safe shallows is the mushroom biome. Building near Sea Treaders is always nice. One of the few ways to get renewable resources, since I don't think other resources respawn naturally.

one of my favorite spots from a functional perspective was in the deep gorge that leads to the brine swamps in the bulb bush forest. its a great spot to have as a staging area for stockpiles and resupply while progressing deeper into the game and is also a much safer access point for the brine swamps than the area around the 500m degasi base, which has too many crab squids. its also, imo, the best entrance to access the brine swamps with a cyclops later on in the game. the cove tree is one of my other favorite spots for many of the same reasons, but as a good early access point to the lava zone. its also a beautiful safe zone with soothing music and i like to install a lot of observation platforms on that base. both locations have ready access to tremendous resources and nearby thermal power. I built it hanging from the ceiling in the cove tree cavern with a moonpool just high enough for it to be accessible to the seamoth, and then a ladder going down to a ground-level portion with gardens and a moonpool for the mech. these were my 3rd and 4th bases respectively. my 2nd was on a pillar in the red grass area outside the jellyshroom caves. and my 1st was, of coarse, in the safe shallows by my lifepod.

Oh, I see I've gotten replies old long ago. @Dogg; The Cyclops was never not useful to me. It was my mobile base and safe home. To off-set the potential loss of energy, I think I had 4 or 5 sets of power cells, especially when I decided on my journey to go deeper. I had lockers all over the large area for construction materials and the like, in the smaller section before the bridge I had lockers for equipment, tools, electronics such as batteries and powercells - a full locker of them - and a locker for seeds, as well as a indoor growth plant. On the bridge, I had the Captain's chair, a radio, trash can, modification bay, battery recharger and a crafting station. I think I was lucky regarding the modification chips and found a shield modifier from another player, not entirely sure. But the other stuff I had I do believe was the engine efficiency module and later I would craft the thermal module. But really, the big key is that you need to have more power cells. Power cells will never not be useful once you've made a few Seamoths, Prawns and Cyclop. Whenever you reach around 10% Engine on the Cyclops, head to the engine room and start removing the 0% cells with 100% ones. Then again I'm safe over sorry, so I spared no expense. And most importantly, understand how far you can push your cyclops before a fire breaks out, and that you can still push it some more in case you're being chased by a large beast. It can take a lot of punishment and fire without going down, even when you think it'll go down, it'll keep on going. Once out of the beast' range, grab the nearest fire extinguisher and put out the fires. Also, make sure you have emergency extinguishers on the bridge, at least 3 in a locker or such. @Shadow Reaper: I don't know what picture I had 1 year ago.

I found that the east entrance to the Inactive Lava Zone was surprisingly good for building a base, because the ambient temperature is enough for infinite thermal plants, and it’s out of the way of leviathans if you build it at just the right depth (about 1000m). It would then be too low for the juvenile ghost leviathan above and too high for the sea dragon leviathan below. However, it can serve some awesome purposes for exploration, especially if the base includes a scanner room and/or power cell charger. It’s great for taking a pit stop to charge vehicles while you explore safely with a camera drone.

And also you are close to the Crag fields (for titanium and more quartz), the Grand Reef (for copper, uranium, ruby, and also you are quite close to the Deep Grand Reef and thus the Lost River), the Floating Island (why not?), the Sea Treader's path (for infinite gold, lithium and diamonds, and i mean literally infinite), the Blood Kelp zone (for tons of copper, gold, quartz and some occasional silver), and you are not too far from the starter biomes. You are also close to multiple portals (in the crag fields and on the floating island) which are useful in late game if you need to get to a lava zone quickly (for example if you need ion crystals). It also looks quite cool.

I have 4 locations I normally use for my bases. The biggest and most extravagant base is generally in the Safe Shallows area, bordering the Grassy Plateau. Second is a small outpost inside the QEP moonpool. Third is an outpost I use as a rest stop near the Ghost River, immediately outside the lab where you use the Orange tablet. My last common base location is a moonpool that I build right outside the lab in the ALS. As standard procedure, all my bases include at least two double-stacked alien containment tanks, a bioreactor, at least two desalination plants, and a moonpool. The two containment tanks are populated by Reginald for food, and Oculus to feed the bioreactors. I find uranium too difficult to get, so I never bother using nuclear power. But when available, I also use renewable power sources. My shallow bases all use solar power, and my ALS base has a minimum of two thermal reactors for power, using the bioreactors as backup. My QEP and ghost river bases, though, are exclusively powered by the bioreactors, since there's no other easily accessible power sources.

I made my base on the border between the safe shallows and the crash zone on a cliff right over the grassy plateaus and the mushroom biome. I've got all three types of outcrop in close range, and a long cliff full of outcrops. An alien thermal vent is nearby. There are no Hostiles nearby and the Kelp forest is still very close. It's a great place to build. I hung my two Moonpools over the edge of the cliff, which is amazing

Save and then go face your fears! Once you turn the unknown into something you've faced it becomes an obstacle rather than a barrier :) enjoy the adrenaline!

Theres a spot like he mentioned at the crux of Safe Shallows, Grassy Plateau, and Kelp Forest that is also on the lip of a drop down into Jellyshroom Cave. Thats where I put my first base as it has ease of access for all lvl 1 and 2 mats

I just like using the location whenever my life pod lands and eventually throw in some lights to guide myself around obstacles with the cyclops, usually ends up really nice looking, plus the added bonus of having all the bumps highlighted makes the night less dark

What!? Not kidding my base is in the exact spot as the first location and it's my first time seeing this. I did a lot of surveying before deciding on where to put my base
