Is Subnautica multiplayer?

[Your English Teacher]

I seem to see that it wasn't originally, and that it might have become sometime in 2018? Trying to get get clarification as I'm looking for a multiplayer survival game after The Forest. Thanks.

its single player, you would know this if you visit their forum. there is a thread that is PINNED that makes it clear "There will be no multiplayer"

[Your English Teacher]

Thanks for the kind response. I keep reading, as I search he web, that there is an expansion that makes it two player. I couldn't decipher if it ever actually came out or was truly multiplayer. Have a better day. :)

There is no such expansion.

Subnautica has no expansions and is a single player game.

There is a stand alone "expansion" (more of a seperate game on the same planet) in the works called Subnautica: Below Zero, but still no multiplayer.

You might be mistaking the mod for an expansion. There is a third party mod which does allow multiplayer, allthough i have heard its quite unstable.

There is a mod in development right now called Nitrox that adds multiplayer to this game. It was schelduled for release some point this month, but we haven't really heard from the team for a while now.

Nitrox! That was it. That was what I had read about. Thank you.

With benevolence, I request for you to stop bumping threads such as these. Since I purchased this game in 2014, these threads have never ceased to exist and it's frustrating to see another one, especially if it's toxic.

This is also targeted towards other individuals as well. Let threads such as these fade away into the mist. Much obliged.

Mod works great, requires port fowarding for some who direct connect over IP between PC's most people seem to be using Hamachi, there is a Subnautica modding community discord and there are multiplayer channels there, I suggest grabbing discord and joining the channel to get your Multiplayer itch scratched for this game, because its that awesome. It works, and works well as long as you take the time to actually set it up right.

NO it doesnt remove all the fish from the game and NO it doesnt remove all the mushrooms from the game(if you cant see anything, reconnect, also explore around you first, stuff has to load in).

In multiplayer, seemingly you start in the same place every time, (even if you have the mod to randomly drop somewhere), in multiplayer the starting area seems to be the same, always. It seems as if SOME mushrooms don't load sometimes, but they are out there not far away. I put several hours into playing this mod with somebody and about 95% of the time we were in complete sync, dropping items for eachother, sharing lockers and loot, watching each other get chased by giant monsters, all in sync and working nearly perfect for us.

Sometimes when you are in the game, to get everything to load right(if for some reason it doesnt) you just have to leave the game then come back, but other than that, just communicate and you will have a great time.

The person hosting the server has all the saved data for the game. When you get the mod, you have to launch the server from the SubServer Folder, thats the host server, so everyone playing connects to that persons computer, that server. You can hit "save game" when you are connect to somebody else's server, but all that does is make a copy of your character on that server, and save it to your computer, so every time you hit "save game" it makes a new save file on your pc. The host will have the save data.

When you make a character and connect, you will have to choose a color, and input character name. You cant change this name, even though you can type in something else every time you connect, The save game for that player, is name based, so if you change the name when you connect, its like changing profiles. So keep the name the same and you will keep all your stuff every time you connect. There are small bugs but nothing that is that bad or game breaking. Small glitches again, just leave and reconnect to server. Everything else should be an incredible experience.

The community are trying create a co-op mode in Subnautica. This is the link for the alpha of the mod co-op

I don't think Fortnite has anything to do with liking co-op survival games.

Just trying to find the next thing after loving The Forest. Some of y'all are a bit uptight.
