Subnautica 2

multiplayer not working

apart from a few glitches and very poor coding for memory this game could be a lot better ! not happy with the lack of ideas and strength like the other versions this seems rushed and money grabbing. also the dlss is a bad code on this native use should render full not rely on code for dlss. or fake frame insert the game should run native... now await further updates and fixes but at this time dont buy beta or early release not worth the money if they dont update or drag it out for long periods. all hype for cash.

might be early access, but it was full price and unfinished with no release in sight.

I just think the game is boring. Legit feels like all there is to do is swim around and listen to drawn out robot dialogue. It's advertised as a survival game but I can't even fight anything? Half the challenge is gone right there. Exploring felt underwhelming as hell. Discovering blueprints for chairs, beds, dining tables, you know... BASIC furniture that my character should already know how to craft was not exciting. Whenever I ran into an enemy all I had to do to escape was simply swim away. The lack of urgency, excitement, and challenge really makes this game feel more like a swimming simulator rather than survival adventure.

TLDR Subnautica2 is a corporate safe and sterile version of the original Personally, I believe that the reviews are only so high because the original game was much loved. Subnautica 2 is not a worthy successor of the original. The better graphics actually harm this game. The first had a soul, quirks, and therefore some charm. This new game gives corpo slop vibes. There's something missing from it, it feels lifeless in the same way AI generated content feels lifeless. Subnautica 2 feels like a sterile shadow of the first, and that's because the lifelike elements have been removed. The story is not great; "Oh you died? That's fine, we'll just print you in a new body!" Ok, so, what's the point? All consequence and risk have been removed (from a narrative point of view, there are of course mechanical downsides to dying) if the player can just print new bodies. The removal of the survival knife, and the general en-safening / non-violence stance taken on everything in the game is completely ridiculous.

I really wanted to love Subnautica 2, but it just didn't click for me. While the environments and exploration are cool, the story is extremely shallow and superficial. Without a strong narrative to keep me engaged, the survival loop gets repetitive quickly. Great potential, but it just failed to hook me.

Guys this is ♥♥♥♥ for a 2026 game

A huge letdown so far compared to the first game - even when considering it's still in Early Access. I agree with all the other criticism regarding a lack of meaningful content updates since launch and the DEV's refusal to listen to player feedback and instead telling them to go play another game. Well, careful what you wish for because, as it stands, I am absolutely going to play other games and avoiding this one. DEVS - don't alienate your fanbase.

Let me start off by saying this is a great game, and I see why many others like it, and the reason I don't recommend it I can't even put into words. It just doesn't feel like a subnautica game. That and the map feels to bland. Theres no more long winding cave systems like from subnautica 1 that really gave it its exploration factor.
