I Built The World's LONGEST Subnautica Base Through EVERY BIOME!

Aaaand now I did it in Below Zero too! :) https://youtu.be/lAXl3YfKjQk

The Last Bacon, the reason for the large lag is because every time you place a base piece, the game has to calculate for crush values, and it happens to enjoy doing this for every single compartment of the base, so when you place one connected to "the mass" of the long base structure, it calculates the crush value, for every sing piece, which of course is too much for the game to handle, best option is to disconnect the part you are working on, and reconnect it later, which would have been more efficient

I personally know Whalelol, so this is super dope that you did a challenge based off him...he'll be pleased!

I had tried to make a huge base like this, but one that functioned as a tour of the biomes and a tutorial of Subnautica, kinda like a "Hey, story points over here! Note that this biome is good for finding x, y, or z! Look at this pretty view!" I had collected one of every creature and put them in tanks and alien habitats, collected one of every mineral, and made this museum at the landing site that would be the starting point. There were signs with directions, entrances so you could "leave" the tour to explore, beacons for all the important places.... I got like... 20% done (after about 6 hours, I want to say?). Then my computer blue-screened and I lost it all -.-; Long story short, awesome base, Bacon!

I expected the actual base to be just a large line that went through the entire void, but it was a lot more different and fun than I expected

I’m impressed that you can swim by those reapers, even if they’re pacified, without making terrified mouse movements that every creator seems to make. I’m impressed bro, keep it up

The glass compartments are such a nice touch in this challenge, because you can literally look at all the different biomes while going through the base! I love it!

i can explain the lag, so what happens when you try to build a base is when you add a new part it updates the one next to it so that they can change their appearance to be connected, however they did this so when a part gets updated it updates the one next to it as well, so every part of your base is updated at the same time, a way to get around this is building your base in seperet sections and connecting them at the end, so you only have to deal with a few minutes of lag instead of a few weeks of lag.

Now try it in survival, imagine how hard that would be 😂

i think the fact that poem panic was playing during the whole tour made it even better, especially when you’ve already played ddlc

I really have a feeling that this video will take off! The thumbnail is great, the pacing is perfect, and its a very fun idea that is easy to work off of as its very diverse and can be changed easily! (As others have done something like this challenge as well)

The lag is likely due to the game having to update the interior so maybe a way to get around it is to put breaks in the base then when done go back and fill in the breaks like with domino's and get super close to observatories then remove them and attach them to the base

The commitment here, I love it! Keep it up and thanks for making my day just that bit funner, as always !❤

This was so much dedication to make an every biome base! A theory I have on someone creating a one single unit without the moonpool connections. It would involve needing to plan a lot branching from a singular point to stick to the same grid. What if at points where the base was too big, you made 3 tubes, deconstructed the middle tube, then continued building off of the end piece. Later on you could rebuild those deconstructed tubes to completely attach entire base. I'd be curious if that helped fight the lag.

I attemted this last year, but after going from the Safe Shallows, Kelp Forest, Grassy Plateaus, Bulb Zone and Mountains I eventually gave up due the the lag. It could take up to 4 seconds to get frames back, and time per piece reached almost 7 seconds. So huge respect on going through with it!

i did something like this years ago in early access, back before the UI was changed or the multipurpose room was a thing. really brings back some memories. it wasnt some sort of challenge, i just started building and kept going. the lag is why i stopped expanding the base.

Imma be honest, I kinda forgot that the crater edge was technically a biome. I get shivers when I go there, so HUGE ggs on making a part of your base there lol

I was thinking about this sort of scenario during my last few playthroughs, since nowhere you build a base is really “perfect” and it would be awesome to be able to travel anywhere with oxygen and patience. Im excited to watch you attempt it first and maybe I can follow in your footsteps too! Im on console and don’t know if my game could actually handle such a build. One time I tried to build a base that connected both islands, and I might try to do so again because I’m inspired by this video! Always an awesome video Bacon!! I appreciate you and all your hard work immensely ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You have my utmost respect for such an amazing feat! Amazing quality, editing, and execution! Hopefully this blows up :)

Love your videos Bacon! Always hella entertaining to watch
