Im interested how would this play out: You answer the radio, Sunbeam is coming to pick you up in 40 minutes, you get cured, disable the gun and launch the Neptune just as Sunbeam is descending
Once you answer that one message which starts the countdown for the arrival of the Sunbeam, it's over for them. The scene of the Sunbeam getting shot down will weirdly play with the weapon disabled. And since we actually never leave the planet, the line "Survivor we see you" will also play while you see yourself going through the debris field or somewhere around there in the animation of Leaving 4546B
@@JoseBR520_NoobContent That's a shame, wish the developers put in an alternate animation for the destruction of the sunbeam as a nice easter egg for veteran players. Oh well.
In a creative playthrough, I was able to build a base, activate the countdown, make a cyclops, go down to lava zone, get cured, disable the gun, wait for the sunbeam. It played the same message and the gun didn't activate.
@@mom.left.me.at.michaels9951 Yup,like he just said, they just tell us through radio message that they'll head back to HQ to report, so no landing happened
from what i understand it's also possible to do this by speedrunning the early stage of the game in order to reach the quarantine platform before you get infected, since apparently that's possible
I'm not sure if it is possible, I'm pretty sure in lore they've said that the second you touch the water you're considered at least somewhat infected as the infection itself in game is tracked by the max depth you've gone to, so technically if you can get there without touching water then in theory it'll work but i don't see how that is possible without cheats
Simply setting foot on the quarantine island raises you to infection level 2, so it's impossible to get to the quarantine platform without being infected (without mods or hacking).
The fact that you can genuinely save the Sunbeam, even though it's a scenario that would only occur if the player plays the game in an absurd way, is amazing.
@@cylerherbst9143 Um.. the turning point to beating the game is deactivating the quarantine... Once that's done you've beaten it, you just have to hop in the ship and take off. 🤷♀
@@IPoopButterflies technically the game isn't actually beaten until you've made the rocket though right? since you're still, as far as the story is concerned, trapped on the planet
@@connortg5 I mean yes but really at that point all that's left in the story is to just blast off in the rocket and the game ends and if you have everything to make the rocket and you're just chillin on the planet after that, then you've decided to forgo the end of the game and stay on for an extended vacation. xD
@@michaellajeunesse9431 you can, if you deactivate the quarantine enforcement platform before the arrival sequence they “encounter a debris field” where the aurora was and had to turn back
Contrary to the video's attestation, I have found you should not repair the radio (or build any working radio) until after the QEP is disabled. Once the radio is repaired, you are on a timer whether or not you play any of the messages. If the first Sunbeam message is scheduled to arrive in your radio queue before the QEP is deactivated-whether or not you listen to it-the Sunbeam dies. OP was successful here only because he consoled immediately to fixing the platform (before the first Sunbeam transmission fired).
It would be cool if you could get saved by them if you did this. It wouldn’t ruin the game for new players because only pros who already beat the game would be able to do it anyway. Also, speed runs.
I've tried this. If you use cheats to fly down to get the cure, and disable the cannon, the cannon does its little deactivation thing. It won't move at all while the Sunbeam is landing. However, you can still hear the audio of the cannon moving and charging up, and the Sunbeam still blows up the same way it would otherwise. Like the game is playing sequences out of order. I played the game a long time ago, I don't know if it has changed
i did try to first disable the cannon then activate the radio until the sunbeam arrives, with the cannon offline, it was literraly in the idle position, deactivated, the sunbeam arrived and got destroyed by an invisible laser so idk, maybe they changed it so you can save it, idk
So if i do everything to SAVE the sunbeam it won't come down BUT if i leave the giant death cannon operational to turn them to slag and atoms they can't wait to come down.........makes sense
You save them by staying away from them. The only way to not lose is to not play. This kind of "saving people" happens a lot in games, but rarely predicted by the devs. Implementing little things like this, knowing that almost all players will miss it is what makes your creativity stand out IMO.
i wonder what would happen if you disable the cannon while the sunbeam is landing. If you get cured, wait until the countdown is near the end and then disable the cannon, what would happen?
A year ago I answered this same question someone else made, well look at me doing the same thing here again. We deactivate the gun, it points down then the whole building goes dark, the sunbeam arrives and it will be blown up like the weapon never got deactivated. Simply, this is how the game was coded to play this scene of the ship arriving.

Nothing in the sunbeam encounter prevents you from meeting the Sea Emperor leviathan. You just need 2 orange cards one of which you can get in the energy facility next to entrance down to the sea emperor area, and you can craft the second with the local materials in that zone.
GOD loves us so much that HE gave us HIS SON to die on the cross for our sins and JESUS rose again in 3 days and conquered death and whoever believes and excepts HIM will be saved and go to heaven and JESUS loves us and GOD saved me and HE can save you to 😊
I love when developers account for ridiculous scenarios that only the most extreme players would encounter.
I DID IT I WAS WOUNDERED WHY MY COUNTDOWN GOES IN -
in older versions sunbeam was gona land on planet no matter what you did and space gun still gona shoot even when disabled
This isn't exactly a "ridiculous" scenario.

Speedrunners:
In a creative playthrough, I was able to build a base, activate the countdown, make a cyclops, go down to lava zone, get cured, disable the gun, wait for the sunbeam. It played the same message and the gun didn't activate.
But what happened to the sunbeam? Did it just not land? 😅
@@mom.left.me.at.michaels9951 Yup,like he just said, they just tell us through radio message that they'll head back to HQ to report, so no landing happened
You don’t activate the countdown. You don’t touch the radio then get cured after disabling the gun then answer the radio
The sunbeams message hit me hard when I first heard it, the captain sounded defeated.

Below Zeros logs mention Sunbeam dissapearing to the same energy blast as the Aurora. So this version kind of breaks the following canon

Is this new? every time I've seen a video of someone disabling the canon there was still a scene of the Sunbeam blowing up afterwards.
If it happens during the sunbeam arrival sequence they still get blown up
You can't save it, this has been known for awhile now

With mods gargantuan leviathan eats sunbeam
I got a crush on the sunbeam captain
nahh bro hell nah
hell yeah bro
the duality of man:
So crazy that they planned for some one speed running the game before any plot actually gets developed
I mean, it's still better than killing off like 50 people just to see a cool explosion.

I played the game a long time ago, I don't know if it has changed
ive done this while also answering the radio constantly. its pretty fun to know that other people know of this
I remeber when the sunbeam actually wakes up. The gun plays all the sounds and just fires from the downed state.
I did this accidentally back when I played it on xbox💀
0:03. Yes actually
Well you saved Sunbeam
What a failsafe cop out 😂
I want more videos like this
This is great but I wish It had a spoiler warning because I haven't finished the game
sunbeam can't find a good place, and says it's too dangerous to pick you up, so they still wont rescue you.
I… actually didn’t know there was dialog for this. Huh, neat.
It's SCRIPTED to shoot the sunbeam, regardless! Another youtuber tried this and showed that the turrent still went off!
yeah, i watched this video too😕
Once the countdown starts with the gun still on, it's over for them.
This video did say never talk to the radio. IE the countdown didnt start.
if you never answer the radio then the countdown never starts but if the countdown starts, then it cant be saved
just dont repiar radio or make one until you disable gun
i think you can also do the same thing if you just disable it near the beginning of the game im not sure tho
short awnser yes just get cured before sunbeam arives
Imagine if you could destroy the alien gun and get a secret ending
If I knew this.. *sigh* I was thought I was beating the game. I was so excited and then.. the sunbeam was shot down. I cried..
Rule #1: you can never stop the cannon event
Ahh they made it so you save them :D if you deactivate before they arrive they acctually live
i did try to first disable the cannon then activate the radio until the sunbeam arrives, with the cannon offline, it was literraly in the idle position, deactivated, the sunbeam arrived and got destroyed by an invisible laser so idk, maybe they changed it so you can save it, idk
you can also just immediatly go to the island and disable the gun when you start the game
🤓🤓🤓🤓erm actaually i just did that and no i does not work like that because doing the animation of the gun you get the state 1 evection🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Sadly not possible. Upon entering the Quarantine Enforcement Platform island, your infection instantly gets raised to level 2 to prevent this.
Good work! Hope this becomes canon. ..poor choice of words
😂
What if... you disable the gun when the timer countdown for the arrival of the sunbeam is already underway?
I think the gun just fires from a downed state
It took me like 20 hours, but I did it. I heard that message without cheating in survival
Hahaha! Wasn't expecting that.
I saw a video where someone did this and it shot them anyway so I think they added that Easter egg on account of that video
No they didn’t get cured
I loved the ending 😂
Nice!
Im curruntly trying to cure the desease disable the gun all within the 40 minutes sunbeam gives.
it wont work, u have to not trigger the radio at all
So if i do everything to SAVE the sunbeam it won't come down BUT if i leave the giant death cannon operational to turn them to slag and atoms they can't wait to come down.........makes sense

so basically just do the story without using a radio
First game I watched sunbeam explode and second game I saved sunbeam yeeey
You can go to the lava area that early in the game?
What happens if you disable the gun while sunbeam is actively landing?
Weapon goes like: Oh no, anyway *shoots at ship.*
but will sumbeam rlly be saved or it will be destroyed again?
@@Captoad only under specific circumstances... if the sunbeam is already coming and the QEP is turned off it still gets blown out the sky
What would happend if you get the timer for when the ship will land and then turn off the cannon
I thought you could go before your infected

mm i do this all the time in my average playthroughs of the game
What if you do it while the timer is active?

Can you also turn off the gun before you get infected?
Quick answer: no

but what happends after the radio message dose it still blow up

Do you *want* go save the sunbeam?
With all due respect... this is common knowledge my friend 🤣

@@brick2392 i mean.. thats because it isnt normally especially not if you turn it off when the count down starts

I’m on freedom 😄

@@kianfazelian450 nope, you'll get a message saying they can't land because of the aurora's hull debris in the atmosphere
