SUBNAUTICA MOONPOOL UPDATE

I like the fragment collecting mechanic in principle, but it needs some work.

With a couple O2 tanks and a rebreather, you'll have enough time to explore. It's shallow enough that you can get most of the way with the Seamoth, then use the Seaglide from there. That would be the one at -284 -250 -850 in the grand reef, SSW from the lifepod. I didn't, so I used the wikia to find the shallowest wreck that contains moonpool fragments. Chicken and the egg scenario, unless you want to get the cyclops first. Moonpool is one of the most difficult blueprints to acquire, since all of the fragments that I know of are too deep to reach with the base Seamoth - which you can't upgrade without the moonpool. Probably could've done it in the PRAWN but without the grapple or jump boost it would've been very risky to find the wreck in the grand reef's steep cliffy terrain. Seamoth couldn't go deep enough to reach the wreck with the moonpool fragments.Д¬yclops is too big and unwieldy, its lights are weak, and the cameras are pretty awkward to use (and it would really be better if their spotlight stayed on when leaving the seat - I'd managed to find a few things on the seafloor but it was hard to find them again after jumping out) So I was at the point where I needed to go further and deeper but in order me to get the tech needed to go further and deeper I needed to go further and deeper to get it. I had the Seamoth and Cyclops and PRAWN but no moonpool. (although I would've hit a hitch prior to this if I didn't know the MP was on the island)

SUBNAUTICA MOONPOOL UPDATE

I started a new game this update and progress was smooth until I got to needing the moonpool. Am I the only one that thinks that hiding essential rooms (just the multipurpose and moonpool really) is bad design?
