  • After playing this game for YEARS I finally finally got a time capsule!
    I've left so dang many of these for these other players.
    Creative idea, and that screenshot/message was choice. Whoever left this, thank you!

      :D Ayyy! This is my time capsule that I sent off YEARS ago in my first playthrough- The fact that you've found it so far ahead in time is- kind of comforting- I hope all that uranite helped with some things. (I had a bit too much after i explored the lost river)

You told me you never got to play it and I hope you would have. Earlier this year you left and I wanted to come back on and finish this save I started for you, it's almost Thanksgiving again and it won't be the same without you.

    The hardest part about making a helpful time capsule; you don’t know where the person who finds it is at in the game. You could put a bunch of starting tools (sea glide, scanner, repair tool, etc.), but those wouldn’t be helpful for people who are at the point where they are prepared to go to the Lava zone or something. If you placed something generally helpful like batteries, food, water, med kits, or things like that it’s helpful but not nearly as much as something like a blueprint or tool you really needed.

    • @ProfNeils
      @ProfNeils  Год назад +3

      So true. I'm always thinking the cat poster is the ultimate s tier loot, but maybe it gets to someone who's not going to decorate. Ion batteries are awesome, but maybe someone likes the struggle. I really love getting something where you can tell real care was put in. The other person was certain you were going to get a kick, and that itself tells a pretty cool story.

    I’ve gotten many time capsules. A lot thanks to the old time capsule spawn booster and old time capsule alert mods (neither of which work now). But I remember one had a Twitch name in it so I decided to tell the guy I found his capsule. Apparently that capsule I found was 2 years old at that point, now it’s more like 4 or 5, and he was super exited that I found it. So I started putting my steam name in the ones I sent off. I’m not sure how many I sent but hopefully at least 1 person will one day message me telling me they found a capsule from General Thunder

    I made a time capsule when I finished the game on Switch 3 years ago. My message was saying I finished the game on Switch and that I was jealous of PC players. I also congratulate you for finding my time capsule, saying I haven't even found one myself. I then explained the contents of my capsule:
    •A thermoblade to cook fish
    •Swim Charge fins so your Seaglide never dies
    •A Hoverfish I named Jerry
    My picture was a Sea Dragon I named Larry attacking me in my PRAWN suit while holding Jerry. (A glitch lets you hold items while piloting vehicles). I finished by saying avoid Larry, and dont eat Jerry and carry on his legacy.
    I finally got a PC about a year ago and bought Subnautica on Steam a few days ago. I also managed to find someone "sharing" the mod files for Return of the Ancients. While attempting to find Lifepod 7, I found my first time capsule. I open it up and discover that I found *my capsule from my Switch file!*
    I immediately ventured out into the void and tossed Jerry towards an angry Garg before promptly dying.
