![]() As a scientist posted to a research station on the planet's surface, you are tasked with studying alien artefacts. Below Zero is set in an arctic region of planet 4546B. We'll keep you informed as updates improve the game.# Return to planet 4546Bĭive into a freezing underwater adventure. If you would like to play Below Zero when it is finished, follow our development progress. It is a new chapter in the Subnautica universe, and is currently in development by Unknown Worlds.# Watch out!īelow Zero is not finished! It is in active development: Full of bugs, missing features, and performance issues. I personally did enjoy the idea of giving the story more dynamic to it, but having experienced the full story now, i gotta admit, the old one was way better.Below Zero is an underwater adventure game set on an alien ocean world. It is up to debate wether this aim was successful. So one of the official goals of the rewrite was to make the game feel more survivalish, The old story back in the day had its fair share of critique still, with players stating that it didnt feel enough like the first game and it was not "survival" enough, with Robin being on the planet alrdy and the frequent interactions with her sister Sam, which meant she was almost never alone etc. ![]() I also know quite some people actually left the team mid-production, with the leading Developer wandering off to "another project", and the music composer being fired (cancelled) over some edgy twitter posts, where he basically made some edgy jokes about gender and diversity - there is a Kotaku article about it. What i know is the lead writer left sometime during the production. Story never progressed any further after that i think -Maybe someone else can add more to it, thats all i remember now.Ģ.As for the mayor rewrite i can only speculate. Oh and some time in the game also another meteor shower hit, that actually damaged the orbital space station where Sam was in, so we didnt know if she survived that. One more thing: Some hours into the game some kind of alien force field was suddenly activated (i think to some thing that AL-AN did unintenionally) which basically activated a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ force field spanning the entire planet (looked really cool, blue grids the whole way across the sky) and this lead to the connection bewteen Robin and Sam being shut down completely, and Robin being alone suddenly as a consequence. ![]() Most of the Alterra bases where also present kind of the same way, in fact the game started with Robin in one of the Alterra bases (the one on the surface north of the current starting area) - all those bases got destroyed by the meteor shower in the old game, so Robin and Sam where still the only Alterra people on and around the planet. Marguerita was present also kind of the same way (same undersea base, same first encounter scene etc.) with the difference being that she had not met any Alterra since she crash landed on the planet with the Dengasi, and she was actively avoiding them and in hiding for fear of legal issues. AL-AN wanted a body the same way he wants it now, however no ending was present after that. Sam would also give Robin some fetch quests, and Robin then had to get those and would send Sam probes to her orbital base lab, which Sam would then analyse (via a small Rocket launch pad which used to exist where the transmission mast is now).ĪL-AN was present in the game the same way he is now, with the difference being that Robin, once having "optained" him, had to hide his presence infront of Sam for him not to get discovered (made for some nice interactions and tension, when Sam was alrdy suspecting things after a while). Sam worked on a (back then existing) orbital space station that surrounded the planet (the "vesper" i think, was visible, quite nice).īoth where studying the planet as well as the Karaa bacteria and the enzyme 42 and had frequent calls etc. In the old story Robin & Sam where both working for Alterra, with Robin only recently having joined. I can give u some details from me personal experience in EA, however i dont have any link, and can only speculate on the causes of the story rewrite. ![]()
