An update for Subnautica has been released today. A plethora of changes;<\/p>\n
-The entire water system in the game has had its appearance changed. It’s more Earth-like in color; more blue.
\n-Nights are darker, and so is going into deep water.
\n-New clouds and a new planet have been added. Both the clouds and planet orbit really fast. Also, the planet can sometimes eclipse the Sun, making day turn into night temporarily.
\n-The Fragment Analyzer is gone. Poof. It’s officially been replaced by the Scanner. You can scan pretty much anything, with new sections on your PDA of showing a Bestiary. You also can scan fragments with it. Meaning no more having to pick them up.
\n-New PDA messages to help with survival and other aspects. And for people that can’t hear it too well, they added Subtitles. This is very good.
\n-Water Filtration Systems for Survival mode only(for Sea bases), each bottle gives 50 Water each.
\n-When the Aurora blows up, there’s new special effects above and below the water. You’ll actually see the water being radiated, indicating “Ohh damn… I should make a radiation suit!”
\n-The Aurora blows up within 15 minutes after starting a new game. Also, the PDA messages have been replaced, mentioning of more “total degeneration” of the dark matter drive core.
\n-When the countdown starts of the Aurora about to blow up, new effects show up; radiation clouds start to seep out of the top of the ship.
\n-They’re replacing some of the placeholder items that are created using the Fabricator to more look like what they should, instead of small cubes. More replacements coming in future updates.
\n-New player model animations, such as grabbing the wheel when piloting the Cyclops(or going up\/down ladders).<\/p>\n
Going by their Trello page<\/a> (where they show the entire development cycle of the game), the next update may possibly remove the “bug” of being able to place solar panels ontop of the Cyclops. Instead, there will be a new solar power upgrade (similar to the Seamoth). An update for Subnautica has been released today.

\nPersonally I’m not in favor of this (as I like being able to go as deep as I want to with no worries), but it does give more of a reason to upgrade the Seamoth and use it instead.
\nHopefully in the future, we’ll be able to have the Seamoth upgrade console in the Cyclops, instead of being only reserved for the Moon Pool (to force the player to build a Sea Base).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
