This is a super old video! So, I apologize for the bad editing. Trust me, my editing is a lot better now. But if you enjoyed this video, you might like my explanation to what happened to all the other life pods in Subnautica: ruclips.net/video/A9ZtRtI-nsM/видео.html
Hey, I like these style of videos and think you should make more similar ones. I think they lifepods failed because of the alien gun thing and there are no survivors because of the leviathans
It’s like how R2-D2 survived in that one ship scene in the prequels. He didn’t survive because he was one of the main characters, he survived because otherwise the non-prequel movies wouldn’t exist otherwise
From what I can tell, i think that warpers were the cause of all (most) of the dead survivors, as most of the damage inflicted on the life pods seems to be a prying force from the outside, with an exception for the life pod that was detonated due to an issue with a flare. I also think the idea that they all died from creature attacks is disproven by life pod 7, which crashed in the creepvine area. And this is a little farfetched, but i think that the warpers were able to track down the life pods so fast was due to the fact that they all sent emergency broadcasts, as we know warpers have some sort of connection to the radio, and they never teleported directly to life pod 5 as Riley never sent a distress signal
I recall a radio message that I think was alien that said something about targets and that there was only 1 left. I think it was about the humans and the 1 being you Edit : I just reread and realized that's what you said lol
The reason the main characters life pod wasn’t attacked was because he crashed in shallow water so there weren’t any creatures weren’t big enough or aggressive enough to attack it.
@@paccie9689 yes because it was the only other lifepod from lifepod 5 that had its flotation devices activated but the reaper attacked the lifepod itself not the floatation devices
@@paperclip6377 The fact you felt the need to talk about politics on this shows you're far too young for politics. Don't stress yourself out, kid. It really isn't worth caring at your age.
@Tyjl34 We don't know what happened to life pod one. You cannot find it anywhere inside the crater so it is likely it never ejected or it landed outside the crater.
or... it could just be the activation mechanism that caused it y'know the beacon? when you put it in the water some small latches on the side detach to form those balloon things i imagine that those latches simply wouldn't fall off due to them pointing downward and the velocity of the fall. i'd guess they would've been designed to eject downwards, which simply wouldn't have been made ejection possible unless it had detached sideways aswell. the latches would just stick onto the bottoms of the lifepods due to wind pressure and in that case they would never be able to inflate the flotation devices in time.
@@LucyWest370 could say the same for alot of other lifepods, really. could just be that they landed at an angle so that the mechanism could activate in the water. that might also explain how the secondary systems panel fell off which made him pass out.
Yes, I guess normaly they would activate a parachute (no evidence, but makes sence). As seen in the intro, they ejected VERY close to the sea floor, leaving them no time to a) activate the parachutes (reason some lifepots got damaged, including ours) b) the flotation couldnt activate in time so they sunk, or because of the parachute failing, the impact destroyed the already inflated flotation devices. So thats what I can tell yall
Going along with the first theory, I feel like Warpers could have played a big part as they would easily be capable of creating huge holes in the lifepods, and that they are programmed to hunt down and kill lifeforms so that the disease doesn't spread.
the only seen to start huting you afeater you mess with gun,by the game prograsion your lickly to find your first one there and the messegn that they say there hunting you is there too
Imagine if they added something where you find a life pod but there is a person trying to swim away as something screams but then a reaper leviathan eats him i would love that but way more scarier than I exsplain it
My theory is that when the Quarantine Enforcement Platform shot the Aurora, some of the Lifepods were hit before ejection, not destroying them but compromising their flotation devices so that they don't work
That basically is what happens on one side. It has 25 pods on each side. It was broadsided by the QEP which destroyed 25 outta 50. I think you can find 12 others so including yours there’s 13 that landed in the crater and 12 that are assumed to either fell into the void or never got launched
I’m not sure if you said it but maybe you got lucky and got the right pod maybe the aurora people knew that only lifepod 5 worked and they wanted your protagonist.... but the impact could’ve destroyed it is the most possible theory
Yeah, I think the impact one is probably most likely but it also could be that combined with some other things. Luck of choosing the right life pod also could be a possibility as well.
Also, haven’t you noticed ALL life pods are near hostile fauna, so this means they could have destroyed the floatation device and could have killed OR eaten them, even your first life pod you have to go to is near hostile fauna which are the stalkers. Even if there are some in safe places we have to think that maybe creatures wernt always in the same biome, considering reapers are in multiple biomes on the not so deeper side of subnautica( wow I wrote a lot)
I reailised something odd about the holes and I suspect it’s the hostile mobs but mostly the warper as the holes are damaged in the same way and the warpers have sharp claws so they might have scratched the flotation systems therefore they sunk as there is proof from the transmission “8 new biological subjects found , sharing locations. With other agent ,hunting ,killing “ plus the main character is still alive as he was presumed dead as the blackbox logs stated so the warpers also presumed him dead
Theory, we where the last life pod to go off so we had less impact and the ones farther back left earlier so they where farther back cause they where traveling through space longer. Theory 2, we where not the only lifepods on the ship, maybe there where some others that floated through space or where on a new planet! (Unlikely)
@@SpeedyMouse I agree, it probably landed so close to the Aurora due to late deployment, like life pod 5. it could have also been the area of life pods 4 and 5 was undamaged by the QEP.
Maybe other lifepods had working floating system but the predators in the water could have demaged the floaters. Our character landed in the Safe Shallows where's nothing really that could have demage our lifepod. For example life pod 12 landed in the dangerous koosh zone with ampeels. Now you may ask: "What about lifepod 3? It landed in the creepvine forest." Well it landed on the border crossing the creepvine forest and the moutiatns. The bone sharks that live in the moutiants could have swim to the lifepod and demage it hardly
Something to take into account is that in the lifepod pda entry it says that each one is for a different situation, choose the right one for the right situation.
in the firs transmision of the sunbem the sunbem says the aurora have low engines perhaps the Aurora was not prepared for these emergencies or trips Nice video
I remember that the players lifepod is dmged when it was falling, maybe when they fell, the pressure speed and crash, damaged the electronics of the lifepod like ours was, with many of its secondary systems offline until the player repaired it, its likely that electrónic failure due to the ejection from the aurora, the dmg from the QEP, Alterras lack of regard for its workers safety, the crash and hostile fauna all contribuited to the failure if the flotation systems.
I realize this video is old, but it's so precious. Clearly a younger creator who holds a game dear to him that he just wanted to talk about, and I think that's a perfect thing. I hope more kids get into creating stuff like this c: Great video from my recommended feed to wrap up the night
I think the impact made it not work on most of them because the guy probably left a little late because at the very start I think it's the ship crashing that causes him to get knocked out. also I made a subnautica theory aswell, u should check it out and tell me what u think. :)
He gets knocked out by loose sheet metal bc the velocity of the pod falling and hitting the water is so strong it causes the metal to knock out Riley but after they wake up the pda says he suffered serious head trauma which would knock you out however he was out for months so maybe he was in a coma or not idk it’s a theory
Maybe since the main protagonist was unconscious to begin with none of the hostile fauna were able to find him in the life pod, and thus didn't attack it, while the other crew members were conscious and drew attention to their life pods resulting in the flotation system to be damaged by the native lifeforms.
I have a really good reason and Is backed up by science, the reason our life pod is safe is because it actually deployed late and didn’t deploy in space like the others(because in the begging of the game we see our life pod be deployed within the atmosphere) and re-entry could have busted the flotation devices on the other life pods
something i noticed. for this guy having only 16K subs he has some decent editing, plus he sounds young, good work keep it up! you just earned another sub
Maybe Alterra just skipped out on testing how well the life pods work. It kinda reminds me of a scene from The Martian. People on Earth are trying to send supplies to Mars, and skip testing the pod to make the deadline, and the pod explodes.
2:18 this is unlikely, all of the holes in the lifepods are bent outwards so they could have somehow exploded, or something busted out, this could be a mistake by the developers though.
The hostile fauna theory might only work in some cases because the holes seem to be blown outwards and not inwards making it likely that the life pods were broken from the inside
I got an idea! You know the second you land the life pod is on fire? Maybe the other crew fainted or something similar as the player but they didn’t wake up in time. It’s probably not correct since some of them left voice messages but still..... ok nevermind
The other life pods could have landed first before the aroura and got hit by the shockwave from impact but lifepod 5 could have landed later after because during the first cut scene it shows that as soon as you eject from the captain ship, it explodes almost instantly
Wanna know something scary? Aurora's black box says that there were 25 lifepods lunched. We know that there aren't 25 accesable lifepods in the playable area. Which means some survivors from the aurora landed in the void or maybe they exploded during planetfall
Riley was just lucky in where he landed, because other landing spots had hostile aliens of different species while Riley landed near a good food source with most of his pod intact.
I think shrapnel from the aurora could have hit the lifepods as they were falling down, at the beginning of the game when you eject from the aurora, the panel that protects the wires falls off from what sounds like an impact from the outside, most likely from the shrapnel from the aurora, and the shrapnel didn’t hit the floatation device on ur life pod, but on others it did. This is also proven more by the Sunbeam when they arrive on the planet and try to find a way to reach u, they say, “We just picked up a MASSIVE DEBRIS field at your location,” and the fact that the debris field was massive, means that most likely as the lifepods were falling, they got hit by the shrapnel, but not Ryley because he got ejected closer to the planet’s surface compared to the other lifepods.
Well I expect the life pods to be prepared for falling from high distances, after all the Aurora was made to go to space, so the life pods would be designed to be able to survive a fall from space to a planet floor or ocean and keep the person inside the life pod, or it would be pointless to even try to escape using a life pod. And yes, people can use a sea moth from the Aurora to get to space and maybe survive because it was capable to explore space and a ocean. Though the power won’t last long unless it has the sonar panel module hitch might be able to get power from the star or “sun,” but there might be some things like asteroids or debris from the Aurora that will hit the sea moth and destroy it. But that’s just a theory of course, well if it made sense.
Remember this, the big alien building that shot a Sunbeam spaceship because when you go inside and see an Energy Core. After interacting with it, it will say you are infected so you can't disable the gun, "This planet is under quarantine". So my theory is, the explosion on Aurora (the explosion while the Aurora is on space) popped all of the Lifepods inflatable thingy and the protaganist's lifepod is the lucky one.
honestly, i think, i just think that the impact from outter atmosphere into the ocean might have damaged 2 big ballons, they are not very durable and even if they are, not many things can survive that.
@@dem5buckse947 btw best place for a habitat is the tree of life in the mushroom forest easy access to blood kelp, 500 and surface level degasi base and the blood kelp you are connected to has the best possible lost river entrance to where you don't need a deeper base than the one you have in the forest
I always thought that something popped the flotation mechanism, like a stalker taking a chimp out of it and causing it to sink, or even a reaper grabbing it and one of its face hand things popped it without being able to fully get into the life pod
@@TheJuggins all of them vere clearly did not explode inside out, if you look at them they have the same texture except for the numbers, does this mean anything? No it's just reusing assets
Yeah, it is kind of odd. But it's at these points that we must remember it is simply a game and the developers probably didn't add variation between life pods :)
@@Mellifluoubusg true but that would happen to maybe 1 or 3 cuz its all the life pods that have holes but yours but it might have happend to some of the other pods
@@catscentral true but some couldve even got damaged by Auroras explosion and the people inside them were probably eaten and one lifepod had a broken fabricator and I personally think that a piece of Aurora hit the electrical systems of the pod so the fabricator won't get energy and then it won't work
the real question is why it only has 24 life pods with only 2 passenger capacity so 48 people in total when wiki quote from pda data that the Aurora has 157 crew member in total Crew: Command Team (23), Engineering Team (85), Support Crew (40), Passengers (9) so this thing is basically the futuristic version of Titanic
why isn’t there life pods for every number in all of the ones there are, in my opinion i think some of the life pods didn’t make it out of the aurora and some maybe in the dead zone
Most objects such as ships, boats, cars, trucks, spacecrafts, death stars, rafts etc... Are reffered to as female. Lifepods count as one of these therfore humans have desided to call em females. Don't ask why becsuse i have no idea. Ask the human race im just a squid in a toilet.
Love your professionalism, completely forgot about the pods to be honest, and gave me some ideas for technical analysis of the engineering and fuction of subnautica's tech
I think being attacked is the most likely, along with possibly impact. You landed in the safe shallows, whereas everyone else landed in areas with hostile creatures
It is said that the reason the main character's life pod survived was due to the area being a safe zone. so I guess the reason some flotations failed would be due to 1. hostile environment, 2. failure n a few pods likely due to damage from either the velocity or earlier damage either at gunshot or earlier) making flotation not work. cuz it did work on some, and some had damaged flotation if I remember correctly, like the flotation worked, but not fully, likely due to how they landed or being taken a bite out of them.
I heard your voice when the video started and I thought 'oh sweet its this guy again!' I saw some of your other theories a while back and was impressed to see the actual educated thought you put into your theorising. I think the one specific one I'm thinking of was about the precursor race and what their civilisation might have been like. A lot of other people just use what basic evidence can be found in game, it was cool to see you do your research and use actual scientific knowledge to craft your theory!
I just discovered this video and i'm subscribing and also it is almost confirmed that warpers ripped open their lifepods and killed them. And their flotation devices were built by a tennis ball.

Edit : I just reread and realized that's what you said lol
the distress signal part is a really interesting theory, I think it's very plausible!
Luckily even if Riley’s life pod flotation devises never worked he would still be alive because he crashed in the safe shallows
But what about the extreme damage from the impact that would have probably caused flooding
He is in the safe shallows so harder inpact do to less water to slow it down

Lifepod three landed safe shallows
Oh well they went farther down

I realize this video is old, but it's so precious. Clearly a younger creator who holds a game dear to him that he just wanted to talk about, and I think that's a perfect thing. I hope more kids get into creating stuff like this c:
Great video from my recommended feed to wrap up the night
I watch you all day lol im addicted
Wow, thanks, that's amazing! Thanks for all the support!
I think the impact made it not work on most of them because the guy probably left a little late because at the very start I think it's the ship crashing that causes him to get knocked out. also I made a subnautica theory aswell, u should check it out and tell me what u think. :)
Yeah that's probably true! I will definitely go check out your video right now!
it's possible but unlikely because so much height is required to get so far away from the aurora and you can see almost all of the explosion
He gets knocked out by loose sheet metal bc the velocity of the pod falling and hitting the water is so strong it causes the metal to knock out Riley but after they wake up the pda says he suffered serious head trauma which would knock you out however he was out for months so maybe he was in a coma or not idk it’s a theory
The imagination of this kid is way over mine
I like dis person. He gets straight to the point unlike some other ones that talks about subscribing for 5 minutes straight
Maybe since the main protagonist was unconscious to begin with none of the hostile fauna were able to find him in the life pod, and thus didn't attack it, while the other crew members were conscious and drew attention to their life pods resulting in the flotation system to be damaged by the native lifeforms.
This is actually really good and useful
Great, I'm glad you think so!
This is probably the best RUclips or I’ve ever seen with theories and best put together a video
My guy you have a very high potential for these theories keep going.
I have a really good reason and Is backed up by science, the reason our life pod is safe is because it actually deployed late and didn’t deploy in space like the others(because in the begging of the game we see our life pod be deployed within the atmosphere) and re-entry could have busted the flotation devices on the other life pods
something i noticed. for this guy having only 16K subs he has some decent editing, plus he sounds young, good work keep it up! you just earned another sub
Maybe Alterra just skipped out on testing how well the life pods work. It kinda reminds me of a scene from The Martian. People on Earth are trying to send supplies to Mars, and skip testing the pod to make the deadline, and the pod explodes.
Probably the warpers, the atmospheric reentry stuff(possibly evaporating part of the floatation buoy causing it to puncture)
A reason could be some of the life pods look older then the players
4:03 that's a really nice picture
Bro , you're channel is actual gold!
2:18
this is unlikely, all of the holes in the lifepods are bent outwards so they could have somehow exploded, or something busted out, this could be a mistake by the developers though.
In life pod 6 that did happen but it may be different but that is a good theory
Life pod 17 is my favorate couse he says "What the hell guys!"🤣
Not funny humor of a 5 year old
I really like your intro and my background is the same as yours by chance
Nice! Thank you :)
I think that they did work, but many of there are near aggressive creatures, which can easily pop the flotation devices looking for food.
Thank you for getting straight into the video and not giving a long intro like other you tubers
This is the best subnautica game theori channel
Thanks a ton for the support it means a lot!
The hostile fauna theory might only work in some cases because the holes seem to be blown outwards and not inwards making it likely that the life pods were broken from the inside
I got an idea! You know the second you land the life pod is on fire? Maybe the other crew fainted or something similar as the player but they didn’t wake up in time. It’s probably not correct since some of them left voice messages but still..... ok nevermind
Many lifepods have preordered messages and some of them have only an automatic signal call so you might be right
The other life pods could have landed first before the aroura and got hit by the shockwave from impact but lifepod 5 could have landed later after because during the first cut scene it shows that as soon as you eject from the captain ship, it explodes almost instantly
Wanna know something scary? Aurora's black box says that there were 25 lifepods lunched. We know that there aren't 25 accesable lifepods in the playable area. Which means some survivors from the aurora landed in the void or maybe they exploded during planetfall
Who knows maybe one want outside the crater
this man has a future
I think that why there is holes in the lifepod is because the laser from the quarintine enforcement platform directly hit it there.
That's possible, or maybe some debris from the laser or something similar.
@DarkerTale Guy it did to the right side of the ship
Riley was just lucky in where he landed, because other landing spots had hostile aliens of different species while Riley landed near a good food source with most of his pod intact.
3:54 "perfect", also nice vid I really enjoy your content
I think shrapnel from the aurora could have hit the lifepods as they were falling down, at the beginning of the game when you eject from the aurora, the panel that protects the wires falls off from what sounds like an impact from the outside, most likely from the shrapnel from the aurora, and the shrapnel didn’t hit the floatation device on ur life pod, but on others it did. This is also proven more by the Sunbeam when they arrive on the planet and try to find a way to reach u, they say, “We just picked up a MASSIVE DEBRIS field at your location,” and the fact that the debris field was massive, means that most likely as the lifepods were falling, they got hit by the shrapnel, but not Ryley because he got ejected closer to the planet’s surface compared to the other lifepods.
Really nice video. Very interesting.
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!
#8: plot armor
Nah. your was damage. poor decision making and 0 survival instinct.
Well I expect the life pods to be prepared for falling from high distances, after all the Aurora was made to go to space, so the life pods would be designed to be able to survive a fall from space to a planet floor or ocean and keep the person inside the life pod, or it would be pointless to even try to escape using a life pod. And yes, people can use a sea moth from the Aurora to get to space and maybe survive because it was capable to explore space and a ocean. Though the power won’t last long unless it has the sonar panel module hitch might be able to get power from the star or “sun,” but there might be some things like asteroids or debris from the Aurora that will hit the sea moth and destroy it. But that’s just a theory of course, well if it made sense.
Remember this, the big alien building that shot a Sunbeam spaceship because when you go inside and see an Energy Core. After interacting with it, it will say you are infected so you can't disable the gun, "This planet is under quarantine". So my theory is, the explosion on Aurora (the explosion while the Aurora is on space) popped all of the Lifepods inflatable thingy and the protaganist's lifepod is the lucky one.
Dang I didn’t even think about them being damaged before deploying because of the QEP Good stuff
honestly, i think, i just think that the impact from outter atmosphere into the ocean might have damaged 2 big ballons, they are not very durable and even if they are, not many things can survive that.
this makes me want to play subnautica again
You should!
Bet ya didn't beat freedom survival and hardcore yet like me
@@Sir_MMMMMMMMs_a-lot how did you know

3:55 damn imagine playing gta 5 and then a reaper kills you
lol that submarine
Then you go to your facility and orbital strike the reaper then send a message saying"1-0 ez zzzzz
@@oldgrumpyultomatoclone6646 yea
@@oldgrumpyultomatoclone6646 and then the reaper drives a opresser mk2
I always thought that something popped the flotation mechanism, like a stalker taking a chimp out of it and causing it to sink, or even a reaper grabbing it and one of its face hand things popped it without being able to fully get into the life pod
Another theorie is that the sea empress had a favourite person with potential (the player) and decided not to shoot us down but shoot everyone else
How would she shoot she ist containet
@@fenris3025 she controls the gun dowsnt she
@@TheJuggins all of them vere clearly did not explode inside out, if you look at them they have the same texture except for the numbers, does this mean anything? No it's just reusing assets
Wait some of them could have hit the bottom causing some of the fails
Short answer:plot armor
That's definitely a likely possibility.
Yea seems about right
Is it just me or is it odd that all life pods have the same/similar holes in them (nice video I like I'll sub to)
Yeah, it is kind of odd. But it's at these points that we must remember it is simply a game and the developers probably didn't add variation between life pods :)
@@SpeedyMouse yeah very very true
That could be because the Aurora was hit by the laser and hot flying metal pieces hit the lifepods
@@Mellifluoubusg true but that would happen to maybe 1 or 3 cuz its all the life pods that have holes but yours but it might have happend to some of the other pods
@@catscentral true but some couldve even got damaged by Auroras explosion and the people inside them were probably eaten and one lifepod had a broken fabricator and I personally think that a piece of Aurora hit the electrical systems of the pod so the fabricator won't get energy and then it won't work
the real question is why it only has 24 life pods with only 2 passenger capacity so 48 people in total when wiki quote from pda data that the Aurora has 157 crew member in total Crew: Command Team (23), Engineering Team (85), Support Crew (40), Passengers (9)
so this thing is basically the futuristic version of Titanic
2:05 is the same voice actor from Star Wars battlefront 1 and 2
the gun could have acted as a temporary empbut we didn’t get hit
why isn’t there life pods for every number in all of the ones there are, in my opinion i think some of the life pods didn’t make it out of the aurora and some maybe in the dead zone
The lifepods dont work because they criticized my pizza delivery methods, meanwhile the mc riley did not.
this is an kid running an channel and its not cringy congrats this is so rare
This channel gives me so much more confidence to better my content, great content my man!
2:44 since when was life pod 4 a girl
Most objects such as ships, boats, cars, trucks, spacecrafts, death stars, rafts etc... Are reffered to as female. Lifepods count as one of these therfore humans have desided to call em females. Don't ask why becsuse i have no idea. Ask the human race im just a squid in a toilet.
@@toiletsquid101 lol
@@toiletsquid101 I meant the recording
Love your professionalism, completely forgot about the pods to be honest, and gave me some ideas for technical analysis of the engineering and fuction of subnautica's tech
I think being attacked is the most likely, along with possibly impact. You landed in the safe shallows, whereas everyone else landed in areas with hostile creatures
It is said that the reason the main character's life pod survived was due to the area being a safe zone. so I guess the reason some flotations failed would be due to 1. hostile environment, 2. failure n a few pods likely due to damage from either the velocity or earlier damage either at gunshot or earlier) making flotation not work. cuz it did work on some, and some had damaged flotation if I remember correctly, like the flotation worked, but not fully, likely due to how they landed or being taken a bite out of them.
I heard your voice when the video started and I thought 'oh sweet its this guy again!' I saw some of your other theories a while back and was impressed to see the actual educated thought you put into your theorising. I think the one specific one I'm thinking of was about the precursor race and what their civilisation might have been like. A lot of other people just use what basic evidence can be found in game, it was cool to see you do your research and use actual scientific knowledge to craft your theory!
professionally done nowadays i would not expect thet from younger peaple. it is an enjoyable video
this is a dope video dude, for a young person this video is well planned and put together. i thoroughly enjoyed!
you are amazing mate, don't let anyone toll you otherwise! :)
Thanks, I appreciate that!
Little did you know... Your lifepod is a leviathan attacking the others
I just discovered this video and i'm subscribing and also it is almost confirmed that warpers ripped open their lifepods and killed them. And their flotation devices were built by a tennis ball.
