Note on Ballast Flora clouds: The flora only has a chance to infect your sub if you're pumping water into the ballast. So if you can't avoid the cloud, use manual steering and fill the ballast pumps above the cloud, then fall through it without adjusting the ballast level. You can also have crewmates turn your pumps off in multiplayer to make sure they don't intake water.

He did say in the video theres only a chance to be infected 'when moving in a downward direction' (ie when your pumps are pumping in)

You can also wire a pump shutoff toggle to the navigation console, for easy ballast flora avoidance

This game... you make the start biome seem like a walk in the park. So far every single mission (multiplayer campaign) has been a brutal. Sub has been attacked by mudraptors every time, sometimes multiples, and we're rocking 6 bullets in a single revolver to fend them off, it's been a nightmare.

My brother in christ if you think that a bunch of mudraptors are hard wait until you get to the second biome. On my first mission in the European Ridge I was attacked by a Thalamus, a Moloch and a band of Tiger Threshers (in time you'll come to hate these bastards in particular). Remember to upgrade your sub or save up for a Tier 2 one once you enter the Ridge, and make sure to get some more powerful weapons, because trust me: a revolver is nice, but you're going to need something better to deal with what awaits you past the last outpost.

Thats a walk in the park for the rest of the game, you know like later on Is very common yo get attacjed by a Moloch, boardes by husk, rammed by hammerheads, attacked by pirates and being trapped by a talamus wreck, all at the same Time while there Is one griefer among your crew disconecting things, overloading the reactor, inyeccting random things to all the crew and loading the diving suits with weilding tanks

I think that the most unpleasant and difficult places from the point of view of navigation are the European Ridge and the Great Sea. The European ridge is unpleasant due to the presence of a large number of spores of ballast flora and underwater currents. The Great Sea is impassable due to the accumulation of molochs, piezocrystals, the labyrinth-like structure of the level and blocks of ice. At the fourth location, I was constantly plunging into the abyss to miss most of the level. It turned out to be much easier, faster and safer to fend off a local resident than wandering through the maze in search of a passage. After that, hydrothermal waste seems like a walk in the park I don't speak English well, so I used Google translator

yeah. the great sea can get annoying with the random chunks of ice that ya sonar cant seem to pick up. the wastes seem dramatically less annoying.

Not without meeting an abyss creature, the major downplay to using the abyss

Passive sonar still works when your navigation display is being disrupted by sonar flora or black molochs. So if you're trying to see in the areas where the disruption is, just turn off the active sonar.

Ballast Bang, god I love it. Never change, Ironic.

6:31 this would have been nice to know before I went outside of the sub to hit it with boarding axe.

Just made it to the great sea in single player, and sweet holy hell the difficulty spike. Swarms of hammerheads (those are ok), multiple giant spinelings (annoying), and the effing black molochs (BONK). Thalamus wrecks are honestly not a problem, by far the least problematic of all hazards

in the 1st biome about 3 levels in i was activating a station then some crawlers outside caused my sub to start sinking down a hole next to the station. i raced outside and started chasing my sub straight down but i couldnt catch up. so i had to switch to 1 of my other characters to stop the sinking. when i finally stopped sinking i was at almost 4000m down which i thought was deep enough to run into something big but nothing happened. my guy made it back to the sub and i just slowly went straight back up to the hole i fell through and continued on as normal. was this a glitch?

With regards to abysall you can encounter on every level, to do it you will need to head to the end of a level when the difficulty rating is above 10%, then out the back and down into the abyss, you should encounter a latcher, however you won't encounter one sailing from the start to the end destination for this biome.

Yesterday I ragequit the game so hard due to ballast flora. We killed the flora root but for some reason there were spore clouds all around inside the ship so we all choked on our own vomit and died.

Damn, if you empty the ballasts by trying to move the sub and use a screwdriver to disconnect the power from the pumps, you can use a dive suit and a welding torch to kill the flora brain at the pump, Close the blast door before you kill the brain everything else should kill it's self and disappear after 10 mins, or run around with a welding torch 2 mins after you kill the brain and it'll clean up quickly Best way to avoid flora (faint twinkling blue dots Seen on the sonar) is to avoid using the pumps while in it by either emptying ballasts and floating up or if you have enough space above the flora fill the ballasts completely by manually steering directly down before you enter the flora Field, if your ballast is already full before you touch it and sink all the way through it you won't catch it in the ballasts End goal is you don't want that infected water in your ballast 😛
