Massive Ocean World "Lost Blue Planet"

[ImperatorElite]

Found a "Lost Blue Planet" and i just love the underwater world of it. Huge, plenty to explore, felt like an eternity of underwater exploring to be done. Definitely building an aquatic base. Check out the video.

Awesome! I got lucky on the Abyss release and had a super deep ocean. It was actually dark and scary in the deep sections. Love the caves in your video.

Perfect combination of colours and water depth and caves... Keep those coordinates at hand when the VR update comes out! (I hope the universe doesn't get reset too much...)

Very true, sadly i doubt i'll get my hands on VR in time. I'd like an HTC vive pro or the index, but it'll be some time before i can afford that.

<video snipped>

Enjoyed your vid ... and the music.

I found my deepest ocean yet: 18-1/2 levels deep. The pix show temp vertical tubes above the Landing Pad level just for 'measuring' the depth. My Base is set into a natural 'cave'.

Holy! That's crazy. Do you remember what kind of planet it is? It seems i see most of the deep oceans on Lost planets, or stellar corrupted planets. Otherwise all other types i rarely see anything all that deep.

Honestly, the original Vive is still pretty darn awesome, and costs half of what you'll pay for an Index or Vive Pro.

I don't think I've seen a deep like this before. Below are pix of Discoveries Page. This is the 4th galaxy ... what ever it's name is.

I'm hoping Index get's mostly good feedback, i can live with some of the current minor flaws in VR tech in most headsets. But if anything major, then i won't invest $1000 into it lol.

HTC vive standard headset and kit on Amazon for only $480 at the time of making this reply, maybe it'll go lower.

I'd like to find an ocean over 30 levels deep, i think the one i found on PS4 was ~23 levels to the hardrock bottom.

The planet im building on now is quite a bit shallower, but it gives the impression of being deep due to massive underwater caves. It's a pity cuboid rooms are so leaky.

I completely agree. I wish i had saved coords, remembered this system etc. Life got busy and now its once again a Lost blue planet. Such a shame.

But i did build a little, i'm not exactly sure how deep it was. Didn't realize how leaky the cuboid rooms were. :(

[Asmosis]

they are fine so long as they are only one level high.

It's when you build to 2 or 3 cuboids in height it gets confused about whether your inside or outside a cuboid. If you try to build a cuboid inside a cuboid, things **really** get messy.

It's also a shame that singular building panels can't be used to make underwater bases watertight, since it'd be nice to have see-through floors.

This was quite a bit harder to do that it appears, since cuboids tend to bug out when they meet from different directions.

I'll have to fiddle around with them a bit i think. Otherwise hopefully Beyond update will address some of the little things like that.

They truly did. And finding a place like that makes it seem more unique or special.At least to me it did, that was the only world i've seen like that, big deep oceans with blue water like that, the types of caves and underwater caverns it had etc. I've seen some deep water but usually different colors and not with caves quite like that.
