I just started playing and I already hate this game.

Hello !

So I started playing Subnautica, a bit yesterday and today, since I had way more time, I did go for a longer session.

Everything was going great, awesomely even, until about an hour ago. I started making a base, at 88m deep.

It was very cool, being able to make my own base. It was coming up perfectly, with a fabricator, storages and all.

Then I added just a little thing. A vertical base connector. Nice.

And so I did go for an exploration, and when I came back inside my base, it starts being flooded. I see something is damaging it.

I repair, then go out. There's nothing visible. Really nothing. I just hear some noise like something is repeatedly hitting my base but I see nothing.

So I hit my head against the wall for about an hour. I dismantled the vertical connector I added. I roamed around seeing nothing special.

I checked online because nothing made sense.

So after a while, I found people talking about tiger plants (I already knew those things, just not the name). I checked again the surroundings of my base and I found one who was indeed hitting my base. Finally. I killed it.

But my base was still getting damaged.

So I spent maybe 30 minutes roaming around again, finding nothing.

How this was resolved ? I saw some people saying your base may break if it's too big. I dismantled a part of my base (to be sure) and all damage stopped.

Now, my biggest question...

  1. WHY THE HELL CAN TIGER PLANTS SHOOT MY BASE FROM 50METERS AWAY ?

  2. WHY IF I DISMANTLED WHAT WAS MAKING MY BASE TOO BIG, DO I NEEDED TO DISMANTLE SOMETHING ELSE ?

  3. And most of all, WHY IS NONE OF THIS INDICATED ANYWHERE IN THE GAME ?

I lost a ton of ressources, lost a ton of life and food and water. Happily I'm just at the start of the game, but it's enough to make me close it and go play something else tonight.

I was expecting fun and struggles, I had great moments, but this is just dumb crap.

I just hope I won't get demotivated to ever play it again, because I know it's awesome, but my day was already meh, having this just made my day worse.
