~Lifepod 4~

[Snowblind]

I would like to know if Lifepod 4 is safe to go to, I haven't gone near that area due to my fear or reapers and I've been told there is a reaper near it.

[Amazing Mezmer]

Its not in the dunes its near the aurora (the big ship) and its not near any reapers. You're safe. But it's not worth going to since it has no pda just a medkit and disinfected water

There are always some fragments just below it. And I like collecting all the PDAs, even when I've read them before.

Of course, right now Reapers can spawn close enough to Lifepod 4 and wander over. Usually it's just a stop to grab a med kit and some water before exploring the Aurora.

You have nothing to fear from anything in this game except drowning. You can hear the reapers and also see them long before they can see you.

[slxpress]

So what you're saying is...don't fear the reaper?

Technically, if you're listening for them and looking out for them, there's something to fear. I do get what you're saying, though.

I've never found this game much of a "survival" or "horror" game the way other people do. I think it's terrific, but it's too resource rich, and the predators aren't actually aggressive enough for either of those two genres. It's more of an exploration game, with a beautiful world, a sense of satisfaction from progression, and a neat storyline.

But yeah, while the predators are something to fear in the sense they can do harm, as long as you know what to look out for, and you're not stupid with your playstyle, generally there's nothing to be too concerned about.

Alright: I was just going to reassure you and say I saw no reaper, so I went in my cyclops and went to lifepod 4, and literally right under it a huge reaper spawned, and I've never seen one before, so I leaped out of my skin, even though I was in relative safety.

A reaper spawns right under lifepod 4 D:

I think that's an infrequent spawn point. I only see one down there about one in every five games or so.

Infrequent spawn?? I've had the Reaper spawn there nearly every game since they included the lifepod beacons!! I've just experienced my first game without one and it's damn eerie going to check it out...

[Ivy4life]

My first time ever in the game....... and 2 ARE THERE. #runformylife #seeyouatthefuneral

[kmtburton]

When I first played last year it was there and killed me the first time I saw it. My current game theres nothing there but the lifepod.

[Red Fox]

2 are there? In the full release? ♥♥♥♥. They made them scarier. I don't know how, I think it's the roar. I was on approach to one of their known locations, playing Hardcore (I'm able to rush through a bulk of the game before the Sunbeam arrives now and I'm honestly bored, so I wanted a challenge). I turned straight back. I didn't want to check to be sure that it wouldn't be able to aggro me. Damn things could spawn anywhere....
