Lifepod 17

[Jarrott]

"This is ozzy from the cafeteria what the hell guys?! they didn't warn us this might happen. our pod was almost crushed by the seamoth bay on the way down, now we're hangin' on the edge of a cave system and this grim lookin' snake thing's trying to eat through the hull. come get us already"

what is the "grim lookin' snake thing?"

[Festivized-Nugget]

well you see he lands pretty close to the jelly shroom caves so that was my first thought. but the crabsnakes don't ever leave the jelly shroom caves (unless you take an egg and hatch it and then let it out but that doesn't count :/ )

this isn't a quiz btw. its an actual question

yeah 17 crashes right next to a Jellyshroom cave entrance in the Grassy Plateaus so Crab Snake stacks up

but like i said. they never stray outside of it. no matter what is up there

True but the voice log does say they're "hanging on the edge" so I guess it's just a flavour text really - it's mostly to let you know there's Seamoth parts (nearly crushed by the Seamoth bay) and a cave network near it anyway

yeah that does make sense but another thing i also never figured out. he says "hanging on the edge" but really they're a good bit away

I think it’s foreshadowing. You’re correct the crabsnakes never venture beyond the shroom cave but the mention of the cave entrance and “grim snake thing” I’m sure it’s just the devs foreshadowing whats inside to scare us!

Perhaps it drifted on the current or a couple of sand sharks bumped it along the seabed maybe?

yeah but it makes no sense. like all the other lifepods like lifepod 4 for example says that he's got some big ol' fish in the water with them. (I:E REAPER LEVIATHAN!) so it makes sense.
lifepod 6 said that there's radiation between them and the rendezvous (which when you go there BOOM radiation)

[Methadrone]

Perhaps poor Ozzy had a glitch - just wasn't his day :P

I know you can aggro fauna to follow you into different biomes if you want to - plus sometimes they bug and follow you wherever - I've had a bloody REAPER follow me back to my base in the SAFE SHALLOWS before now

Thankfully he depsawned and started in his usual spot when I saved and reloaded....

It was crab snake. Yes, they don't leave caves in game, but game and story are not 100% in tune, sometimes.
Pod 4 was already mentioned.
Another example would be dragon leviathan. According to PDA, she does feed on other leviathans, and carries their carcasses in lava zone. There are leviathan bones laying around in ILZ. But we never see her leave ILZ and hunt in game.

true

Given the size of the sea dragon leviathan and the size of the paths to the surface, it seems like it would be a big pain in the rear end for a sea dragon to head to the surface, catch a reaper, and drag it back down. It would have to be really hungry. It would be an interesting sight, though. It would probably look something like maneuvering a couch through a narrow hallway and periodically getting stuck.

i think he meant up to the lost river (cause you can find a sea dragon skeleton up there. thats why the disese reserch facility is all broken and the disese got out)
