Is the Sea Dragon Leviathan killable?

[MelanieBT2]

(I'm playing on the most recent version of the game) So, I went down to the treacherous Lava Lakes and set up a base with 1 thing in mind: to kill the Sea Dragon Leviathan. Long story short, I've been down here for hours. I've shot the thing with the Statis Rifle and gotten hundreds of hits in with the Thermoblade, but the dragon just won't die. I've used this method to kill a Reaper Leviathan and a juvenile Ghost Leviathan, but the Sea Dragon just doesn't seem to die... So, is it even killable?

The sea dragons are going extinct anyway. There are three left and they are already having to hunt and fight reaper leviathans for enough food to survive. Even assuming they breed, it is no guarantee that enough of their offspring will survive to adulthood in this limited resource environment to be able to perpetuate the species.

What do you think of a Jurassic Park like sequel to Subnautica in the future? Where the player returns to 4546B to help fascilitate in the recovery of the planet's exosystem? A biologists dream! We could be given a slew of tasks that would help, through our intervention, preserve life and encourage and ensure various parts of the ecosystem are allowed to thrive, with the end game scenario being able to remove all safeguards and let the ecosystem interact fully and thrive on its own.

We would have to manage cultivating enough food for the herbivores, finding a way to sustain and preserve the predators while also keeping them in check, and even doing microbiology with parasites and monitoring any new mutations or changes. How does that idea sound?

Tending to your Kelp Forest to give the growing Stalker population a habitat, when you get a PDA alert of containment breach, and one of the Reapers is out and heading towards the Gasopod pen! Oh noez batman. We'd be in a caretaker kind of role.

Shootin in the dark, what do you think?

As a non-canon spin-off adventure sort of thing, that sounds quite interesting...of course, Alterra, being Alterra, will doubtless look upon that as a waste of resources. They have no interest in anything that cannot turn them a quick or big buck.

They could spin it as good PR. Great way to get a ton of good natured talented people into the field, and all data would benefit Alterra. The raw data, any new discoveries, and bragging rights. I see no better way to lay legal claim to a planet than to "save it"

They could also barter and sell the "rights" to the planet. Maybe negotiate with the precursors. Leverage. Who knows =)

There's always the "But there's this one person that did things for evil" trope to fall back on.

Just Stop trying to kill ♥♥♥♥. The devs literraly planned the game around you not doing that. Just stop whats even the point. I mean seriously great job you killed some big scary monster in one area. Now that area is no longer scary or frightnening. PLz continue to ruin part of the fun in the game.

First I like ur pfp second I'm playing as a leviathan killer as to get revenge for the millions of vehicles destroyed by leviathan since game came out :)

Oh wow, thanks for bumping this old gem. ^^

Nope. Human mind is the best weapon and the best tool. We bend nature by our will, and when it try to kill us, we become just more powerful. See, what humanity done with just the power of its mind. We was just an mere monkeys freezing in the cold caves in front of the small bonfire with the fear thet it can fade in any moment. Now we are here, and I can speak with you through the all world. We do not fear nature now, we are it's lord. Ok, sometime our slave tries to break out from it's collar, but this is nothing but a struggle. It's just the matter of time to make a new, more tight and robust collar.
As for me. I do not scared by big animals and giant roaring fish, but by humans.

Global warming, environmental pollution, plastic islands in the ocean and one of my favorites: Areas contaminated by radiation.

Humans are retarded, mindless sheeps.

Luckily you are just an individual but on the contrary, so am I.



While I see our species running towards extinction, you are the luckier one.
As you don't see it, even though it still will happen as humankind simply is as described above.


Yet we should create more areas with radiation.
As the nature in Chernobyl seems to be recovering pretty well, without people being around.

Who knows?
Nuclear holocaust may kill as all in the future, but it could heal the planet as we won't be there anymore.

I agree, it would be good for the Earth to get rid of mankind. But I'd prefer a way that won't destroy a lot of animals as well.

Bruh, no. The apes will just do the same thing we did, ruin the earth to survive.

Well the explosions would be bad for sure.
But the radiation itself seems just to be something we are scared off.

It surely is dangerous and lethal. Dying as of radioactive contamination is horrible.

Still the animals seem to thrive in the zone.
Here is one longer vid:

Scientists are still wondering about the animals having almost no signs of mutation and other bad signs of negative impacts of radiation.
Especially mice are running on the ground and eat stuff that's contaminated, so they are getting radioactive particles into their system on a daily basis. oO

probably not but let me know how it goes if u try it lmao

Lol guys apes will eventually just evolve to do the same thing we did, you need to accept that. Animals do anything to survive. Eventually there will be another human species, so we gonna massacre them too?

Bah... Humans are weak. Would you, if you get into an ambush of 4 Lions, try to fight them or run away?
While sane human beings will choose the latter, Mongoose go for a good fight. ^^

What about venomous snakes? They can kill us with one bite.
Mongoose don't give a damn, as they are pretty resistant against any sort of snake venom. ^^

Badass creatures these are!






In addition:
My apologies for being OT.
It's just that I don't think humans are the strongest creatures.
We surely have our intelect that helps us out on various occasions.

Humans are not weak, we evolved to use tools to fight instead of our bodies.

[Just Chill]

Well that doesn't change the fact that we are weak.
Human VS Lion mostly goes for the wild animal.

Gun VS Lion is a different thing. But a tool is made by intellect not by strength. ;)


This game also makes a good show out of it.

Ryley is nothing without all the tools he makes.
And he is either nothing with them, as of having a trillion credits of dept because of the tools he made. XD

I love how this game also parodies capitalism. Surviving will kill you financially. oO

He will never financially recover from this.
