5 Subnautica Theories That Will Blow Your Mind 

It would probably be in a pda.

​​@@mikim_x then explain why don't we know the final form of the lava larva hmmmmmm!?!?!?!? EXACTLY

Well you can breed them If you place at least two in the containment

Or they want to explore

i mean the aurora was not a colony ship tho

It's a mining ship

@@tfordham13 wasnt the auroras entire purpose to set up the phasegate so that other ships could get there?

@@doomchromee8648 maybe

It COULD make sense if they escaped from the dying Earth and colonized another world, but continually returned to Earth to monitor it's possible recovery. Maybe they also tried to help the recovery along by bringing flora and fauna from other worlds to it in order to 'jump-start' the recovery. Not really sure if I believe this, but it would make sense in the context of the main theory.

@@captin3149wrong comment

Good one.

I- uh- *sigh*

I am rapidly approaching your location. I am going to slap you for making that joke.

I don't get it.

@@ZoofyZoof The Periodic table.

That theory falls apart when you remember that the Auroras main mission was the construction of a new phase gate.

wasn't it a way to hide the true main mission? see what happened to Degasi?

@@terraplayermaster6238 That was a secret madrugar mission.

Oooor maybe robin just recognizes what a big glowy portal is for based on similar human technologies?

Personally I see that as entirely backwards, human gates were called phasegates gates so when she encounters similar alien technology she refers to them in the same way

Elite Dangerous is just a game that a relatively small percent of the population plays for fun for a few years. Imagine if a majority of the human population (multiplied each time they conquer a habitable planet) does it full time for hundreds or thousands of years.

@@Vohasiiv I take your point, but interstellar travel in the Subnautica universe is much much slower than Elite's frameshift drive. To colonise a new system requires sending a ship to set up a phasegate, an operation that takes months or years. So the comparison perhaps isn't as flawed as all that. I'd still suggest that even with a species agressively colonising over centuries or even longer, that's still going to be a fairly small proportion of the galaxy. 400 billion stars is a LOT. Even if our expansionist species colonises a million habitable worlds, that's still a tiny fraction of the galaxy.

@@PreceptorGrant The thing is, the more human there is, the more they expand. Its like that vampire problem, where it would take one Vampire only 33 month to transform the entire earth into other vampire, if each vampire only bite once per day. And with almost infinite time to do so, humans of the subnautica universe could very well explore everything in a reasonable amount of time.

@@jeanmarc6517 Yes, but you're describing exponential growth. If you double with each generation the numbers get crazy, but that's not how humans behave in practice. If your population has a Total Fertility Rate of 2.1, that is every woman has 2.1 children, then the total population slightly grows over time. To get exponential doubling, the TFR would need to be something like 4.1 or more. In developed countries, TFR at the moment is in the 1.5-1.7 range. Now, in Subnautica there's evidence people can live a good deal longer than today, so they'd have plenty of time to reproduce, though likely at a somewhat slower tick rate than today. I'd suggest we estimate one generation every 50 years (this is partially to make calculation easier), as opposed to the 30 or so years at the moment. (Your vampires, of course, can turn someone new every night, which is why 33 months seems so fast). I'd also suggest that an advanced, spacefaring culture would have both pressures to have children and also pressures to refrain. Let's guess the TFR at 3 (to be generous and fair to your hypothesis). Let's start with a population of 10 Billion (10,000,000,000) on one planet. Let's assume 10B is the maximum population each planet can hold. After 1000 years, 20 generations, with the population growing by 50% each generation, we'd be looking at a population of 33.253 Trillion (33,252,567,300,797), across 3,325.257 planets. After another 1000 years, we'd now be occupying 11,057,332.321 planets. That's 0.00276% of the 400 billion stars in the Milky Way (if we're simplistic and assume 1 habitable world per star). To quote the late great Douglas Adams "Space is big. Really, really big. You might think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space."

And that’s just our galaxy not every galaxy

Ikr, how could someone have played the games and not understood that.

They obviously just built big engines on Earth and pushed it to another galaxy, duh! 🙄 /s

You got the video for that? You may have just answered a multi-year question.

that video still up?

@@randomm8242 yeah I believe so. Its in his playlist of subnautica its like 45 videos but there was one.

FTL doesn't care about time dilation (or rather, you have to bypass relativity to get FTL)

@BaseDeltaZero That's incorrect based on observation, time slows the faster you move. We already know this as fact. FTL would be going so fast time basically wouldn't pass for them

​@@funnyfunnyvalentine7991 Yes, but the problem is that the same physics that make time slow the faster you move make it impossible to go faster than the speed of light - because the faster you go, the more energy it requires to accelerate, until it takes infinite energy to reach the speed of light. So if you are going faster than light you're doing something weird and all bets are off.

Or at least that's what I think I remember

@@khaztheconfuser1466 No, my understanding is that they discovered kharaa on 4546b.

I will make a violent threat soon

MAKE SUBNAUTICA 3

Oh you know, it’s killing their entire species. And maybe it’s something similar to covid-19, but much worse.

I posted this before finishing the vid

Thanks me

Thanks for watching!

Why are you saying?

You can play it on consoles too

Thanks for the support!
