Subnautica has its fair share of strange alien creatures that want to take a chunk out you, but there could have been so many more if some of these cut creatures made it into the full release. Today we look at some of the candidates that didn't quite make it into the final game!

I'm so glad you're making a video on the Ice Dragon. Even to this day, it makes me upset knowing such a cool creature got cut. A cold empty biome with a dragon lurking in it is just what Below Zero needed and where Subnautica 1 thrived. I'm dying to know why they removed especially after having a full model. It seems like something they put a lot of work into. It must've been hard letting it go before the full game released.

@iAletho 6 месяцев назад

Yeah its seems it was cut in 2019 after one of Unknown Worlds developer conferences, it seems the whole biome was scrapped which meant the Ice Dragon unfortunately went aswell

@thomasdevlin5825 6 месяцев назад

I think it was ultimately deemed too similar to the sea dragon so they decided not to go through with it. You never know though, I'm pretty sure every creature that got a full model was eventually added at some point, I remember the ghost leviathan was just a disembodied model for a really long time until eventually it got added, and the rock puncher and giant lily pads were both only models for a long time, and they eventually both made it into below zero

@Gracefulwarrior2124 6 месяцев назад

@@thomasdevlin5825 I mean familiarity in a game doesn't ruin it. It seems like its brinicle affects would've been different anyhow, so it certainly has a different feel

@Toastishott 6 месяцев назад

Espcially since below zero was so barebones....it needed more biomes and more creatures yet they cut so many.

@DarlexGardenWarden 6 месяцев назад

The reason they didn't add it is because in the fandom a lot of people were saying they didn't want it in and that it looked bad basically there was this whole war of people wanting and not wanting it in and sadly we lost the Negative Nancie's won by crybabies that just because it had Dragon in the name it was gonna be a copypasta of the Sea Dragon Leviathan even tho the Chelicerate is the counterpart of the Reaper and the Shadow kinda is the counterpart to the Ghost

I was actually bummed out when the crested reaper didn't make it into the game, I think it would have fit right in.

@Kitxi_Official Месяц назад

Hello, Below Zero beta tester here! Back when it was in development, polls were held to determine what creatures would make it into the game. The piece of concept art most people use with the ice dragon is no the art they went with when asking the community for feedback. The actual art used didn’t fit subnautica’s style and had a far more fantasy look. Thus, the community voted to not put it in the game. I hope this trivia helps!

@mochatitan7401 11 дней назад

@cosmicbrick44 5 месяцев назад

It’s so sad to see that the Ice Dragon didn’t make it into the game. It seemed like it would’ve been on par with the Reaper in terms of fear. My one issue with Below Zero was that the Leviathans weren’t really all that scary. Yea you’d get the occasional scare but they really don’t strike as much fear in my opinion. I feel like the ice dragon could’ve changed that.

@Bloeb731 6 месяцев назад

@viperwolf3762 6 месяцев назад

I feel like replacing the current void leviathan in below zero with the ice dragon would have been interesting, the current void leviathan is terrifying but imagine adventuring into the darkness of the void and hearing one of the most blood curling roar, you turn around if fear but you've already gone to far, the player gets struck by a force that does 1\3 of the seatrucks health and slows the Vehicle, after, the player turns around to a beast as big as a ghost leviathan coming for another strike, you manage to get back out the void but not before one last hit putting the seatruck ar 1\3 health. I feel like I got to invested in this.

@akane754 6 месяцев назад

Honestlt im leaning either the crested reaper or the ice dragon. The crested reaper could have been similar to the cryptosuchus but with more of the straight charge at you that the reaper had. I also feel like having a biome with one singular massive creature would be absolutely insane so the ice dragon would have been amazing

@iAletho 6 месяцев назад

Subnautica was a game where you look at the world and go, 'Yeah nah fuck that'. Then you coop in your base cause you rather not go in the Darkness with whatever roaring. And then you look at Below Zero and go, 'Not this again.' One was terrorizing. The other is agonizing.

The Kitewing Skyray would have been perfect for the Tundra Void north of the Arctic Spires. The flat, barren landscape seems like an ideal environment to leave you exposed for some massive airborne creature to swoop in and kill you. It would also be hilarious because you would not expect skyrays-which are completely harmless-to have such dangerous larger cousins.

Photosynthesis is extremely rare in animals. I only know of one species of slug that does some photosynthesis.

@Foamamusic 5 месяцев назад

Here I will state a couple of the creatures here that made it into the game but went through some changes. 5:09 two of these designs made it as other creatures but lost the abilities. Trivalves as a non-breedable pet and triops found in the deep twisty bridges and a couple other places. Triops are small enough to grab from the wild and if you want one it’s better to run into them by chance than go out looking for them, Spikey traps and rarely squidsharks lurk in its habitat and it’s a sparse creature anyway. 5:19 this creature went through major changes but I see resemblance to the noot fish. Noot fish are harmless but will devour anything they can eat whole. Big enough to eat a peeper but small enough to hold. 10:08 no trace of the ice dragon is left in the brinewing but it’s ability, to freeze prey. If you see titan holefish or symbiotes brinewing could be near. (Symbiotes are more parasite though)

@shonkyhonker9347 4 месяца назад

I really think having the ice dragon in below zero would’ve made people like the game a lot more. Below zero only had two hostile underwater leviathans, only one of which was a regular threat with the shadow leviathan only appearing in the end game. Having the cue dragon be like the ghost leviathans would’ve made exploring sector zero a lot scarier, especially the under the circumstances sections that are easy to get lost and trapped in
