Subnautica IS FINALLY RELEASED!! Ultimate Building Guide! 

6:52 If you ever feel like whatever you do is useless, just remember: someone put a hatch on a moon pool.

2:08 that save tho

My entire base is just a tube with a solar pannel on top lol

A thing about the scanner room, stalkers have like a 'den' where they put there scrap if you put cameras near a stalker, the stalker will bring the camera to its den, then if you check the beacons on the mini map to find the cameras you can locate and collect all the scrap metal the stalker was hoarding!

Love the game, I only wish it had a small co-op where you could play with a couple of friends.

I bought subnautica but I'm scared of the ocean... The irony is real

"You can Wire them to get wireless power" Boi

Go ahead and go ahead

0:29 i though he said "the corona virus" I was like WTF?

Me: *scared of depths and darkness* Me: *buys Subnautica* Me: *what went wrong? Wtf?*

As a new player, this helped me A LOT! I was really lost in the start of the game, but now! I’m still in the start lol 😂. But this video was really helpful! Thank you so much!

“You’ll really spend a long time adding to your base and improving it” *Me who has spent 4 hours on building one base alone* You don’t say

The "go ahead" count of this video is too damn high.

I have multiple bases around subnautica each one has a purpose Red grass bass is the first base I made purpose as the main hub Observer base purpose to observe life forms equipped with the egg collector prawn suit and a scanner room the find creature eggs put them in the alien containment unit and study them. Destroyed lab base. The precursor diseases research facility has a base their as when I am exploring the area I have a place to hang back as my cyclops got stuck and I had to take out my seamoth to explore the area The reaper base Equipped with the reaper killer(a seamoth made to kill a reaper) This base is near the arura with the purpose of studying reaper leviathans the front of the arura is a place where these leviathan class creature normally hang out Total number of reaper kill this base has made-2 (dame reapers and their phase glitch) Lava zone base- this base has not yet been constructed on the accounts but I haven’t made it to the lava zone yet but the plans are simple have a base powered by heat with the purpose of have somewhere to stay while in the lava zone Void base- not yet constructed but plan is simple use to study ghost leviathans in the void Rocket base- this base (located near the gun) is used to store all the materials need for the rocket. Main purpose a place to stay while gathering stuff to make the rocket. The rocket will be called constructed near the gun because. That’s is just because I can. Those are most of the bases for now......

I just got the game and it's great! I love the fact that there's no pressure and you can do it at your own pace. Also the total adventure of it is outstanding. It actually makes you use your brain.😁 Very enjoyable overall!👍

The "Ultimate" Building "Guide" is much more like the "very basic" Building "introduction".

Correction for the video: the bottom of compartment/glass compartment is also an access point that allows you to build a hatch (thats even reality-friendly!)

This game has come long way, love it.. its so addicting

Thank you!!! I had so much problem knowing how to use other energy than solar (couldn't make them connect to the base lol). It's not the prettiest base but you explain every single bit of it. To me, it is the ultimate base guide

I love this game just from watching the videos you had on it & would love to see a full video on all the furniture & decorations you can have & maybe all the types of creatures & ruins you come across. Not delving too much into the lore, just enough to get what the premise is, as you are an expert in doing. I live for building in games, which is why I like so many of the games you feature. I have definitely begun the habit of liking & sharing all all media every one of your videos. I really want to see the channel get the recognition & support I feel it deserves. Oops! I am missing your Xcom!

I’ll be honest, I’m kinda upset that you put spoilers in a building tutorial. We didn’t need that beginning montage with the alien. I’ve been actively avoiding spoilers while trying to learn how to build a base. It really sucks for us new players when older players stick them in without at least a warning.

imo the bio reactor is the best in the game a single grow bed if blood kelp can indefinitely sustain 4 reactors and if you need more than 4 (you really shouldnt) just build another grow bed for more kelp

2:54 Detail only uncovered later: YOU CAN'T STACK THEM IF THERE'S SOMETHING INSIDE THEM ALREADY. Also can't stack the scanner room vertically on top of one of them. Honestly a guide just on all the quirky ways buildings connect to one another would've been really handy starting out!

Just picked subnautica up and I'm hooked. This is an excellent vid, very very helpful.

I would call this basic not ultimate building guide.

2:08 - nearly dies of lack of oxygen while showing how to build a bioreactor :-D

A well done tutorial that explains the fundamentals for a solid and beautiful base to see!

bought Subnautica and it's one of my favorite games truly a joy. I never knew about it either up until a week ago.

I domt even play the game but when I do I need to see this so I liked.

"Go ahead" count: 23

I recommend a bioreactor stocked with oculus, with a few tanks full of them in the room surrounding it. Things are over a full bioreactor power cap each and take a single slot so you can run in and stock up in like 5 minutes then have a power source you only have to refill occasionally with the fuel right there.

The song is so chill in the backround and its cool when u play this song while playing subnautica

Once I figured out the scanner room, I have been having a blast roaming around the oceans using a camera to find stuff. = )

Nuclear rods isnt "fairly" fast depleted. It takes a while bro

Man this was exactly the video I was looking for but couldn't find. Thank you very much.

This guide is life and time saving! Thank you 🙏🏼 subscribed immediately.

Please add the decorations, I’ve spent the last 2 days solid in subnautica, can’t get enough!

0:29 holy shit when I first heard it I thought he said coronavirus

I can't build much in ARK underwater cuz it's very hard to do so, this game fulfill my thirst of building underwater~ I love underwater base! Cool video! Thanks!

Playing it first for the first time. I’m doing it in VR. It is an amazing experience. What a game. Such immersion. But such frustration with the controls.

Final, any chance on seeing you playing The Forest again? Would like to see what you could build in that game.

The thing with providing power to large bases: thermal plants and solar panels don't cut it. If you're going to have more than one moonpool, a water filtration machine and external lighting, you're going to NEED a nuclear reactor. Trust me, it doesn't consume that many reactor rods, and, even if it did, the amount of power it produced from them would last for days.

This video really helped me get to grips with the base building, thanks.

The first 2 minutes were helpful, can’t wait to see what else I can learn. Thanks

take a shot every time he says "go ahead"

Best place to build is on the island right in the middle of it, due south of the Aurora. I've had this game for a very long time and I don't build anywhere but there, all of the end game resources are below that Island. Also the Emperor Queen is down there you'll find out who that is but let's just say you need her to beat the game.

You could also go ahead and build them more compact, you don't need to go ahead and build corridors and vertical connectors, just go ahead and build them right on top of each other or the side. You can also go ahead and build hatches on top and bottom of any corridor. Never ever build any foundations, they will go ahead making it harder for you to go ahead and be more precise. This are just the basic tips, you could also half-way deconstruct every base part to make another base very close without snapping.

Great video. You got me laughing cause I remember trying to figure out how to get all the pieces to work together in early access. Keep it up.

I just cannot make a perfectly alligned foundation just above sea level.

Uuuuuh did you just predict the corona virus name? 0:30

There are so many new facts I have learnt about subnautica base building, because of this Amazing RU-vidr, thank you final you awesome.

Nice vid, I'll definitely "go ahead " and build a superb base.

0:29 that just sounded like corona virus

It is free now on epic games launcher

im new in the game and i dont want to see or hear spoilers, but i liked this video, its good to have one vision of the game, if you are a new player, also good to show new players about to start building. after check my first hours in the game, this will help me a lot.

Great video, wish I would have watched this video at the beginning of my lets play!

See, here’s the thing- I’m terrified of seeing a Leviathan so-

The bio-reactor is the best energy source because if you have a harm that uses lamp fruit it makes power problems a joke the solar panel is restricted to the surface the thermal reactor will only make you build in certain zones and the nuclear reactor eats rods to fast so I highly recommend the Bio-reactor

Awesome video! Would like it if you went into biome or area specific building. eg. what to do in caves, or just go into more detail with the structural integrity mechanic.

Added detail regarding power transmitters: they have a maximum transmission distance of about 100 meters from transmitter to transmitter, however, there's a maximum transmission distance of about 25 meters from an actual power source to the first transmitter in line. Also, keep in mind that power will always transmit to the nearest power receiving object, not always to the nearest receiving object that makes sense. So if you end up having a problem getting power to follow the path you'd like it to, try rearranging your transmitters in the trouble area or consider adding a couple more of them to make the power gaps smaller. Your power will always follow the path through the smallest gap it can.

I can never find the moonpool fragment

Do the furniture

The thing I really like about Subnautica is that where other games were added to to the point that you could only play it on a very good computer, subnautica hit that point, but then by the time of full release they had cleaned up the game such that almost anyone can play it on whatever device they have, without taking anything away from the game

this isn't just a guide, this video is pure art!

I'm here after my whole base was full of holes and water came in

“Ultimate” bruh you listed the components of a base you didn’t even show strategies of how to properly build or where

Thank you for explaining the scanner room so I don’t have to waste a lot of resources figuring it out!

Thanks for the tips, and for keeping it clean!

If you press Right at 0:09 three times he said "Subnautica -tica -tica." Just weird it lined up that way.

did he just said the corona virus

I know most of the game physics and how to build bases well cause of many years of gaming. But DAMN this is a good turtorial for new players, and the commentary. Was just wonderful! :D

Just watched 3-4 guides and this one is the best, right to the point. Ben trying to join two habs vert and couldt figure it out,tnx

"can't not recommend it enough" - I'm so confused...

Wow. For a base building guide, the video contains A LOT of end-game spoilers. Do not watch unless you finished the game.

i just bought subnautica and this really helped me out ! thanks :)

I picked it up when it was free through Epic games. Just barely started playing it the other day and I'm loving this game so much

What is the point of showing people the multipurpose room at the start of the video? People who haven't played yet can't build it until they get the blueprint, and people who can already build it already know this stuff. I also don't understand why you showed the thermal reactor without pointing out that the spot you placed it in was barely useful at all due to not being anywhere near a decent heat source like a black smoker or a thermal vent. Additionally, why the hell would you build a hatch in a moonpool? The moonpool IS a giant hatch, effectively. P.S.: Foundations are useless except as a platform for external grow beds.

0:51 Excuse me, spherical? Lol

didnt know about the scanner room thats cool and great video just picked up the game few days ago

Got the game after a very long wait this was very helpful

Who heard corona virus and like if 2020 xD

Go ahead.

Best guide i usually never look a guides best ima start watching them for games

I just started and it’s terrifying and amazing at the same time.

Basic building guide... not ultimate.

I would not call it a planet, more like a deep fish tank.

Thanks so much I was having trouble making a good base and this helped a lot

Its so beautiful how complete this game is

Nice “ultimate” guide to extremely basic building......

SPOILERS!!!

I'm gonna go ahead and take the advice that has went ahead and been genuinely helpful and build a base.

Thank you for helping us make more good videos and pls make the furniture guide cause i will make the best base ever in subnautica

Thanks man been trying to figure out the build

I changed my main base from the safe shallows to the lost river tree cove. There's a lot of glass corridors and windows and that base is HUGE

Dude I love this game, I have been always loving water and the deep underground I have a surround sound headset and it’s really cool

Exactly all I needed to know! Thank you very much!!

Great tip: For easy energy and food and Water, visit the floater island, you can look up where that is if you don’t know. And once you do that scan the multipurpose room and the planter box, which are in the middle of the island in a tiny broke down base. Then search around for a lantern fruit tree, then collect four lantern fruits, if you can’t collect four Judy make sure you can get at least one. Now you’ll have to collect all bioreactor fragments. Now build the multipurpose room and build the planter in it and put the bioreactor in that room or another multipurpose room. Then plant the lantern fruit in the plant pot in the planter. Then they’ll grow and you’ll have a lot of access to food as they heal +10 food and +3 Water. They grow very fast and you’ll never be able to collect all the fruits if you have four trees. The planter box should be a ale to hold four. Now put them into the bioreactor and keep doing that to power it and you’ll still have tons left. And the lantern fruits take up four inventory spaces which isn’t the most ideal for carrying but when they are in the bioreactor they last 4x as long as most stuff.

Thank you for this guide it gives me many ideas to add on to

This was very informative, I subscribed because of it. You really should do a furniture video. Thanks!

The best tutorial I've seen of subnautica
