Having access to food, storage of farmed supplies, fabrication capabilities; these are all things we need a base for. But what if you could have all of these within a completely mobile base you can move around wherever you need? Enter the Cyclops, our adorable three-man but piloted by one man submarine that could. So with a couple of exceptions, we can actually outfit a Cyclops to cover almost every need of a typical base. Today I’m going to walk you through a simple Cyclops mobile base setup to show you how much you can take with you using just the Cyclops.
If you want to see the Cyclops being used as a mobile base, be sure to check out Season 2 of my Subnautica gameplay!

Here is what Steam has to say about Subnautica:
Subnautica is an underwater adventure game set on an alien ocean planet. A massive, open world full of wonder and peril awaits you!
You have crash-landed on alien ocean world, and the only way to go is down. Subnautica's oceans range from sun drenched shallow coral reefs to treacherous deep-sea trenches, lava fields, and bio-luminescent underwater rivers. Manage your oxygen supply as you explore kelp forests, plateaus, reefs, and winding cave systems. The water teems with life: Some of it helpful, much of it harmful.
After crash landing in your Life Pod, the clock is ticking to find water, food, and to develop the equipment you need to explore. Collect resources from the ocean around you. Craft knives, lights, diving gear, and personal water craft. Venture deeper and further form to find rarer resources, allowing you to craft more advanced items.
Build bases on the sea floor. Choose layouts and components, and manage hull-integrity as depth and pressure increase. Use your base to store resources, park vehicles, and replenish oxygen supplies as you explore the vast ocean.
What happened to this planet? Signs abound that something is not right. What caused you to crash? What is infecting the sea life? Who built the mysterious structures scattered around the ocean? Can you find a way to make it off the planet alive?
The ocean teems with life: Use the ecosystem to help you. Lure and distract a threatening creature with a fresh fish, or simply swim as fast as you can to avoid gnashing jaws of roaming predators.
Build a Pressure Re-Active Waterproof Nanosuit, or PRAWN Suit, and explore extreme depth and heat. Modify the suit with mining drills, torpedo launchers, propulsion cannons, grappling hooks and more.
As the sun goes down, the predators come out. The ocean is unforgiving of those caught unprepared in the darkness. Areas that are safe to explore during the day become treacherous at night, but also reveal a beauty that those who hide from the darkness will never see.
Cave systems wind below the sea bed, from dark claustrophobic passages to caverns lit by bio-luminescent life and burning-hot lava flows. Explore the world below the ocean floor, but watch your oxygen levels, and take care to avoid the threats lurking in the darkness. - Hry
I like to think of myself as a practical man. I have static bases with scanners, battery chargers and food farms in strategic locations for resupply and storage of excess material. I take my Cyclops wherever i go with a pravler or a seamoth in tow depending on the objective at hand.
My fears of the deep sea are the strongest i have, this game is a true horror game for me, being inside the Cyclops brings me comfort. I also like to play with buttons.
I usually just make 1 base that I go to everytime, powered by solar panels and thermal plants (Usually close to the grand reef or the safe shallows, since they always have thermal vents and lava geysers, not to mention some basic resources I can easily gather just outside my base). I hate making multiple bases, since making them in the first place is a pain. Then I turn my Cyclops in to a sort of base. No fabricators, chargers, anything that uses power because I don't like having my Cyclops getting drained and possibly getting my ship stranded in the middle of the ocean. But I do make a farm and up the storage for resources.
My main bases are located in safe shallows very near to lifepod 5, in the SW grass fields near lifepod 17, and in the Giant tree cove in lost river. Powered by solar panels, heat sources and nuclear reactors. This setup gives me a clear and compact routes to most areas of the map and safe places to sort my shit out at.
I dislike long travel, i like to have a place to seek cover from nearby. Especially when leviathans or the lost river are involved.
In addition to that i have tiny scanner bases powered by bioreactors wherever needed for finding databoxes and materials. I have a locker with the components at the ready for quick deployment.
That first Leviathan attack in the cyclops is spooky.
Flintlock but... this game isn’t that long. Why do you need all that to finish the game
@@nickcoker9092 Because as stated by me in the original comment, the ocean is pure terror for me. I don't consider sticking around building unneeded bases fun enough to counter that.
I simply followed the story, scanning everything i found and reading every PDA entry, that was enough for me. Its probably my new favourite game, and i will be playing the sequel.
So basically what you have is a storage locker with a steering wheel and propeller?
Clemson Driver yes
Lol yeah xD
Yup.
80% battery storage.
No
I live in my cyclops. I added a vending machine, power cell charger, battery charger, bed and a coffee machine.
It really works!
Where do i find a cyclops at i cant find them
@@darkoni95 You find fragments scattered around. You need three for the hull, bridge and engine respectively. Then you need a bunch of lithium and titanium and a mobile vehicle bay.
Got mine done yesterday, it really is a sight to see when it gets built :D don't do it in the shallows, though....
English Guy4 cyclops battery drains like crazy if you add a power cell charger...for me it felt like they drained faster than they charged up so a net loss I guess
Chargers in a cyclops? What i did was charge my seamoth in a moonpool and swapped the 100% battery with a dead one from my cyclops 6 times. Then later it was faster charging with the prawn suit because it has two power cells :>
Channa Wijetunga back when the cyclops was relatively new power cell chargers were way op, it only took 17 energy points to fully recharge an empty power cell, which gets you a profit of 183 power, infinite power lol, I used this to sustain the cyclop’s energy needs back then, they’ve fixed this since then
3:40 Guys, it even has Wi-Fi!
I didn't even notice it looked like that there
MLG Lad actually that would be service
MLG Lad im assuming it’s using data
😂😂😂
Lol
Take a shot Everytime he says wall locker
Axer MC I’ll die I’m not doing it
The point is for everyone to watch the video, not pass out drunk from it! :)
The owner of this account is now in the hospital with alcohol poisoning. Good job, guys.
Axer MC rip the guy that did that
Fuk maamn tis tippy,,,..?!' Haerd tu tipe
It would be hilarious if at the end of the video he had three seconds of footage of his cyclops being destroyed while he screams “NOOOOOOO!!!!!”
Save button is your friend, use it wisely
@@ouassimzayani8806 worst thing to see as a subnautica player: QUIT: are you sure? Last save was 3h 47 mins ago.
@Quassim ZAYANI hardcore mode 💀💀💀
The problem is that if your cyclops gets killed, that's the end of the line and your gonna have to start over.
A submarine with such a hot voice would never die
Do the save truck, if you don’t know what that is search it up
The plan is probably to ride it down to dangerous areas, then hopping down in your prawn suit
Well, as long as you save before dangerous expeditions, if something does happen you can just load the last save .
Or just load your save file and lose a bit of progress
i cant even imagine dying with all this
Of course you would go back to your latest save.
This is why I could never play hardcore.
@@rdes11 for me that defeats the point of the game. If there's no risk for a reward then it's not fun
@OxinTER Oh for sure. I'm actually tempted to give it a go, after thoroughly beating the game in a 300 hour run wherein I did just about everything one could possibly do, and hadn't died since around hour 150, so I know I could handle it. I just really don't trust the game to not randomly bug out on me and delete my save for some BS reason. I know how to back up my saves, but that defeats the purpose. I don't really see any good solution.
That said, I've been playing Don't Starve lately and am actually quite enjoying the real sense of danger that its hardcore nature gives, but that game seems to be a lot less prone to game-breaking bugs.
I believe you can respawn in the cyclops but if you mean dying with that in hardcore I would just quit subnautica for a while. I did that kinda when my character got glitched and kept respawning under the ground so I couldn't het out and my character kept drowning.
MSG, I found a way to have the cyclops to be a 99% mobile base. So there would be thermal vents around so get the upgrade for the cyclops "thermal reactor" so you can recharge its own power instead of making a base and recharge. It can also work in the lava zone(s)
Only next step would be figuring out a way to modify the dorsal surface to be solar panels. Deep near heat = power. Parking near the surface = more power. After that, figure out a way to use up most of the internal space and install a nuclear reactor.
@@toddkes5890 there is a small underwater volcano in the safe shallows, if you hover the cyclops over it you can recharge it, plus if you use ion power cells you always have more than enough energy to get anywhere and back before you need to recharge
Todd, they made that module, but unfortunately it’s only for the SeaMoth, and why are you driving the Cyclops near the surface?!
@@expiringdate9679 To get to/from locations in the Shallows. With all the storage of a Cyclops with Lockers, it almost becomes a home away from home
Galaxy 5728 it barley works the damn leachers
I can confirm this works. Build one immediately and play the entire game in the cyclops. It really changes the feel, and I recommend it
I never built it, mostly because it's more work than I found necessary to build it and trying to navigate it is cumbersome. I also only built two bases, one surface side and one around 900 meters
Fact: the coffee machines are a cheap infinite source of water. Ur welcome
They may be infinite but are extremely slow. I also do not like them for the specific reason that they are infinite and should not be.
There are no coffee machines in subnautica, there's only decaf and that doesn't count. If there was real coffee on 4546B I would have no reason to go home or anywhere really.
The water filtration machine though could be useful considering you get salt for food and water
Not mad about the coffee machine's rate of hydration tho... Personally water purifier, and 👉🏽 salt 👈🏽 Salt + tube coral = 1x bleach. 1x bleach = 2x disinfected water from the fabricator, and 1 bleach takes less space in your escape pod storage than 2 bottles of water 😎. Before you even get a water purifier aim for as much salt as possible. Tube coral is easy, you can hack at the tube anywhere, not just the plates, and it NEVER runs out. Salt is common on the seabed near the seaweed forests, and in the red grass areas. Also, once you can upgrade to the thermal knife, cured (salted) fish is less important, as the knife kills and cooks fish. Going deep? Catch a few live Reggies or Peepers and take them along, and hotknife them when you need to eat, they give +food & a small +water as opposed to -water for salted fish. New game & desperate for food & water? Eat the green kelp samples for food & water, but be quick as it goes off pretty fast. Once you have growbeds and Bulbo trees / marble melons your worries are over. Oh and another interesting thing, if you're in an area with a lot of Reggies or Peepers, catch them and let them go by your habitat, they'll stay there and you can utilise them later. Oh and never ever get into your Cyclops if you have a cuddlefish following you. Your little waterbro can get stuck in the sub & die, and can also mess up the clipping of your Cyclops, causing you to fall through the sub to the seabed with indoors physics pretty much shagging your game as it happens more and more often after the first time.
Give him the entire solution to the game, why dont ya :)
I find the sonar incredibly handy when going on an expedition to the lost river
The brine is easy to follow, personally I see this as a waste of power cells :/
@@shittttttt8016 not in the entrance with all the trees. It's sometimes hard to keep track if those.
Also, you can have infinite power if you pop a prawn suit with a thermal reactor onto a thermal vent, and use it to charge the cyclops' batteries
WelshCrusade yeah I guess you are right, I never use that entrance I usually use the grand reef one and that’s easy to navigate without any support on your cyclops you just need silent running past the ghosty
Same, its easier to not get a hull breach or crash!
did anyone else think that the locker glitch actually looked kinda cool from the outside
Bucket 'O Anxiety yA
Looked cool
Bucket 'O Anxiety yeah!!!!!

So I bought this game because I have a deep down crippling fear of ocean depths and giant sea creatures.... I'm so addicted and I love it so much. I think my wife is getting aggravated lol
Now try it with VR.......
@@sergjim2377 don’t even start 🤣🤣🤣
ive beaten it 12 times, and the deadzone still scares me, nothing will ever be scarier in subnautica
@@sergjim2377 there is VR!?!
@@gargillaape5292 I don’t know why it doesn’t scare me. Maybe it’s because I have actively gone out to kill the leviathans on my own free will, instilling a sense of control.
I remember when we used to be able to build a solar panel on top of the Cyclops, that was always awesome :D Shame it was a bug and they fixed it lol
I always have a static base now, for recharging batteries and growing food. But I still spend more time in the seamoth or prawn.
James Kaplonek you could just add that upgrade that charges the cyclops in hot water and just sit near a vulcanic or hot spot to replenish the cyclopses battery and then you wont need a static base
Logan Wolfbane but if you are just using it as a mobile base, you dont need speed.
James Kaplonek maybe make spots to attach them like astroneer?
It is really strange that Cyclop can't recharge by solar. Probably devs didn't add this option because of balance
@@DartLuke exactly that, they took it out because having solar power on the Cyclops made a lot of players hang around too long near the surface rather than taking it down which is what its real purpose is.
Lol u have an Adidas logo on ur Cyclops
The Slav Cyclops
The Phoenix Slavclops😂👌
And hes not even sponsored fucking capitalists
TRIPALOSKI
It's a did das not Adidas in pronouncing
tip for cyclops: only install power cell chargers if you're running the thermal reactor module (the charging glitch is fixed)
Yeah this is really good advice.
In my sub, I only have the battery charger.
I use six ion power cells as the primary power source, but have another six regular cells for backup power.
Same for the prawn suit - Two ion power cells for normal use and a regular one for emergency power in the onboard prawn suit storage.
Whenever I go out, I always make sure to carry two fully charged batteries.
I make it routine that when I get back, the first thing I do is charge batteries, charge power cells etc. It's a good habit to have.
9:18 gee. I never knew you liked wall lockers. I mean, after seeing the bottom floor, I thought you hated them.
Lmao
🤣 lmaoo
MOAR WALLLOCKERS
Wall lockers made me drunk

And then it explodes with everything inside
Wall lockers have joined the chat

*Ghost Leviathan has joined the chat*
"Ah,a good meal!..... if only i can reach it and if i could go out of this void..."
*eated a planters and all of a wall lockers XD LOL*
Wall lockers *A R E* the chat
Tip: Have a whole section of storage filled with water (preferably water fabricated from bleach due to ease of access and how much can be made). This is to allow the planters to be filled with more filling plants such as potatoes. If you don’t want to do this, then load up on marblemelons in planters.
You can also be like me and have two planters filled with potatoes and eat every single one when you’re almost dehydrated to death :D
I like marble melons more coz it’s not like you’re gonna find coral tube samples everywhere when you run out
i do that with lanterns cus they require no maintenance or replanting
I used my cyclops as my base the whole time I played, it worked great i only had bases set up around for power but then I took them apart because I didnt need them anymore.
Its so nice when you are in a dangerous area but you are in your base :)
Subscribed the second I saw you subtitle your videos. Thanks for taking the time to be as accessable as possible
God damn this looks great. I’m on my second play through and I have a cyclops so I might consider doing a less permanent version of this
You can simply restock yourself with a vending machine and 4-6 coffee machines ; )
Yes you can but OMG that's a lot of hassle.
MrSpicyGaming it's free tho, no fish catching or energy cost ;) Click all coffee machines twice, then go get snacks to eat, coffee will jump in your inventory wherever you are, with enough coffe machines you can get 48 water （6 machines）in one go
+李昊
But then again you could always just build an alien containment and breed reginalds. It'll give you so much food that you won't even know what to do with it all. It's a lot more efficent since they dont take up much space and you can take them wherever you want.
Plant bulbo trees inside the cyclops and every base and you're set for life. They give a fuck ton of food and water at the same time.
melon are so much better (+14/+12 VS +8/+10 for bulbo) and for less space in growbeds ;) bulbo are too long to grow compared to melon (in the end, melon is just the best of all)
A good place to put an outpost is the lost river. You can charge the cyclops at thermal vents, gather the plentiful resources, progress the story, etc.
Note you CAN get infinite power on your cyclops. For each Efficiency mod you make things cost less. So instead of costing you 200 to charge a powercell of 200, you can make it 180, at a 10% discount. The effect stacks however it means you have to constantly cycle the cells, due to your only getting the discounted % back as returns
Just an advise, energy cell recharger inside the cyclops is a little useless, it drains the same energy amount from your cyclops to recharge the same at the power cells, the easiest way i like to do is get the thermal reactor module and park the ciclops right above a hotspot, theres also one on safe area, so you can recharge your power cells directly from the cyclops power cells bay.
Yeah its not recharging but transporting energy that way. I dont understand how people are so STUPID to think it would work 😂
Charging ion cells in the Cyclops has indeed been patched. You will need to make at least one base to stop at for charging your cells.
Get the Thermal charge Mod for the cyclops then just park on or near a heat source (lava or thermal vent). Voila all your stuff is charged at about the rate of a single solar cell, but more than fast enough to charge your batteries and powercells and keep your vehicles charged.
You can do one better. Have the thermal upgrade on the prawn-suit and give the prawn 1 empty (or partially charged) powercell and walk it to/in some hot water. Especially useful for thermal vents that the cyclops can't reach (at least not the 60 degrees Celsius part). Take some extra empty cells on your person and swap them as you go.
@Jessen :D how do you manage? I've tried it but I just sucks the energy out too fast
Dunno I play rn and I can recharge my cells at my cyclops
If you use a seamoth with solar chargers or a prawn with thermal reactor you can self sustain completely
4:02 that looks pretty cool actually. Like a logo or smth
Adidas Cyclops
Been watching these, since I'm a 26 hour scrub, and these are extremely helpful! I appreciate peeps like you, new sub. :D
If you have the THERMAL upgrade for the Cyclops and you are down at the ACTIVE LAVA, or any other hot zone FTM, you can charge power cells inside the Cyclops and the heat will recharge the Cyclops own power cells. So you have pretty much an unlimited supply of energy onboard.
Also, I recommend building all the basic upgrades (the ones that need the station in the moonpool), so you will never need any other base at all.
My own version of the Cyclops Base is similar, but has notable differences. First was a lot less lockers, I never once had to make extra lockers outside of the entrance and locker area except for specific things I'll get into in a second. Also, I kept one resource per locker except for a few that were labeled PRECURSOR or CREEPVINE which contained anything I could make or get from that; SILVER contained wiring kits also and COPPER had copper wire too. Used prawn suit to gather materials if I ran low.
From the control area , I added a standing locker on the right side of the sub next to the big hatch for extra or unused equipment like propulsion cannon, fins, the radiation suit after I fixed the leaks. I also added a lab counter on the left side of control room behind the hatch for decoration.
Just past the hatch, I had my single person bed with two pots with the chinese plants on either side of the it and an Aurora poster above it too, all on the left side. On right side of this area, I had two standing lockers, one for misc tech and the other for health, food, and water. Alongside these where a fabricator, modification station, a battery charger, and a power cell charger. A health kit thing remained mostly untouched above the hatch side of this small area.
In the main area of the ship, I had a trash can and a coffee maker (mostly decoration) on the front left side of the ship, vending machine on the front right (also decor), aquarium on the elevated part near the middle hatch across from the access for storage and upgrade for the prawn suit, and a grow bed filled with the marblemellon plants for food in front of the creature decoy thing. A storage locker next to the creature decoy held all my batteries, power cells, and of course the decoys. On the walls of this area was misc posters and a radio that looked more like a router because of how it interacted with the wall.
Last thing I had was that kitty poster above the engine. I had the thermal upgrade in the cyclops so I can charge power cells and batteries in heat areas without worrying about power. Other upgrades were the shield, sonar, efficiency, depth, and I can't remember what else, but probably the prawn repair one. Never used the fire suppression system tho, never went full speed and used the shield to avoid attacks.
Overall, my cyclops became my home. I had only one base the whole game that I stopped using after I got the cyclops; I never even really made a temp base although I had two lockers dedicated to such a thing.
Temp base included a single corridor, hatch, battery and power cell chargers, glass for windows, two flood lights, and it was all powered by a thermal generator and one of the power conduits if it was needed.
This is pretty much what I did with my cyclops in both my play throughs of the game. It makes it so much better to have all your resources in one central place you can take with you. I put lockers on the other side too for mostly fauna/flora stuff.
you forgot to talk about what happens to stuff when cyclops gets destroyed :p
Make sure to save
n that is the most factual statement
old video
i have a cyclops for safer areas and one for the more dangerous areas ones stocked the others made for short trips and after use is parked in a small cave area where its safe they both have a prawn docked
so if one goes i still have the other ill only exit and load my last save if i lost something important
I love when you go to the lost river and a ghost blows up you ship
Thank you. I will take this into account for my survival world!
This was a great tour. Playing Below Zero with the great and much more practical truck rn, I still kinda missed the customizable experience from the Cyclops. Loved to see how you put the interior to good use. Had my bed and planters and even the Fabricator in the same places back then. It was nice to see, so thank you.
I was thinking of this myself glad someone is trying it out
Damn, I'm dumber than a kangaroo in a bar on a Sunday morning. Why didn't I ever thinking of having stuff to make a base if I ever was gonna plan on staying at a certain spot for a bit. Thanks for the tips lad.
This is the whitest thing i've read in a while
Australian spotted
This was suspiciously specific.
@@audreydelaughter4320 shhhhhh
Great Video! i liked it so much i did this with my Cyclops. When i started doing this, i found the Auto sort locker mod, and easy craft mod, now i have lockers everywhere. and when i want a new base, i put the Cyclops next to the area i want to build in, and the easy craft mod pulls everything from the cyclops storage lockers to build what i need.
i love how his intro looks like the intro to a 2012 flash game
Try this on Seamoth. Unlimited powaaah! (and fun!Especially electrocuting levi's)
1.Depth module
2.Hull reinforcement
3.Solar charger
4.Perimeter defense system
5.Ion battery
You can electrocute Levis?
@@syncto_ Yup. Makes them let go of your Seamoth if you're swimming away from one. Saved mine when it got caught by one awhile back.
@@tiberiumcapoo5093 Ah i didn't know thanks
This cyclops is more equipped than my base :v
That last comment about Levi's smashing this "base" after so much went into it gave me a legitimate chill.
I like the lockers there is it looks like your very own symbol
Stuffing a bed into any nook that will hold it mirrors real-life submarine duty more than you may know :)
Cool really useful! It helped me with my expeditions
This sub layout was amazing, but your point of a leviathan taking it out was a terrifying thought.
This is superb. Cannot wait to do this.
I just keep the materials to build a base in my storage with a moonpool and everything. I just deconstruct it when im done.
Brain size: ♾
I've been playing like crazy to figure out a way to make my Cyclops a mobile base. This helped a lot. Thanks!
Sorry for late three year,anyway you earn my respect for making this video
Tried this once when I first got my cyclops. I moved all of my stored items onto my cyclops and then saved. Went for a stroll and didn't know there was ghost leviathans in the dead zone.... Cyclops and all my items gone.
Why didnt you load your last save?
Look im the opposite u like wall lockers and i like to fill up my multipurpose rooms with mazes of freestanding lockers
I like wall lockers because I can label them. Two for titanium, one for gold, one for silver etc. Although I suppose you can remember which is which
I always order my freestanding lickers in the same way:
Titanium
Glass
Copper
Sandstone
Shale
Deeper stuff(e.g. kyanite or crystalline sulfur)
Sustenance(food and water)
Tools
Organic materials
Alien stuff
Samon17044 lickers
I'm the same but I've got 10 multipurpose rooms filled with the standing lockers just incase I need my storage (Dont do it, it drained my resources and I still have like 5 not filled)

that's very cool, I also thought about the cyclops being a mobile permanent base too but you did a better job at what I made, very cool
Your southern accent gives me life
if only the cyclops could cary the prawn and the seamoth at the same time
I wish it was an upgrade
There is no reason for it to note be able :(
If you could only still put solar pannels on the Cyclops.
you have the "Y'all accent"
Also known as the southern accent
“Hey cletus”
I have a "y'all accent" XD fuck
Y’all accent XD
you mean southern???
I cant believe I slept on this game for so long. These videos helped Me so much Thank's!
hahaha I love the way you say Magnetite "Magna-tot"
The answer is not until you get the thermal charger
I used the Cyclops as my mobile base before the thermal charger was ever added to the game. The thermal module is a great help but with a good supply of power cells the Cyclops is still a viable mobile base.
Idk I guess I planned poorly when j ventured into the deep. I had to ration power and basically try to make it to the ILZ to craft the thermal reactor
I beat the game without a thermal upgrade for either the cyclops or prawn. I also didn't have the grapple hook, or sonar or shield upgrade. And I only had three ion power cells
@@cairnarunir you sir almost committed suicide
@@sarkazpotato it was difficult to say the least. I will say that the builder tool, thermal plants, and rechargers become your *best* friends
super helpful guides you have here. big thumbs up
Scanner rooms, moonpools & growing plants/animals are why I still have bases (I also have at least 2 bases before building the cyclops because it makes hunting for materials and schematics much simpler.
I love that he covered up the lockers that are built into the cyclops
I just have a moonpool with cell and battery chargers with solar panels in the safe shallows. And I have a seamoth in the moonpool. Just a simple station setup idea.
EDIT: You actually can put a modification thing, not the whole station but the table type one (I don't know what it's called) inside a cyclops.
modification station

@@Prushka crap that was what I meant
No way, it's impossible !
@@Prushka how do you do it?
That would be so helpful
Fun fact: i forget what theyre called, but there is a plant you can get from the mountain island that gives you 10 water. Just one of those in a growbed and boom, water problems disappear.
Edit: theyre called bulbo trees
Pierce M. Marble melons are far better
Hell, I'm glad I'm not the ONLY one who used the engine room sub levels as additional storage!!😆
Latern trees can work too,since only two trees (not all fruits taken off) can fill you,its just your choice both are effiecent
Unless you're a pro, I wouldn't recommend using the Cyclops to other things that aren't transporting your Prawn somewhere. Especially don't put all your inventory in there. It takes one misstep to find a leviathan and all your inventory is gone.
I have a full wall locker *FULL* of power cells *(they are fully charged)*
If you're sticking around for a while after you get to the active lava zone, then i suggest getting the thermal charger. also, between the bridge and the vehicle bay section, you can places those freestanding storages back to back to allow more space to place more freestanding storage. any other amenities such as the radio and med kit fab can be places in the vehicle bay or cockpit.
Btw if you get the cyclops engine efficiency upgrade and you get ion power cells you can recharge power cells in the cyclops. You can do it without those but you get the best with them
ya know if the cyclops explodes everything inside is done for
Pinkie exit game
Load game
thank you
Don't forget whatever is attacking your Cyclops you can just grab a satis rifle and a knife and go to town on dat ass
have you heard of common sense like a sheild generator shields you from leviathan class flora and if you every now and then... chill at a thermal geezer or vent then easy dub you just made a sustainable power supply for said cyclops
@@orbe5533 Leviathan Class Fauna* Flora refers to plant based organisms or fungi.
You totally can turn the cyclops into a mobile Base.
Yes.
I been living inside mine from the very beginning.
The only inconvenience is the Power Cells.
But you can Recharge them if you have a seamoth with solar charge module.
your wall locker has a nice cyclops
useful video after 5 years :) played below zero a few years ago now im playing the first one for the first time lol
Ok, so you can build stuff on the inside... can you put solar panels on the roof outside? (apparently an update has removed this posibility).
Or some other kind of power generation?
Yes they did remove the solar panel option quite sometime ago from the Cyclops. Initially your power generation option will be a temporary base for recharging. However, once you have the scans and materials you can also use the Seamoth's Solar module, the Prawn Suit Thermal module, and the Cyclops Thermal module as ways to recharge power cells. However these are a bit slower than a well powered base with a couple of power cell chargers.
I am now downloading subnautica
@Blaise Dermot DELFORCE no definetly not it takes more then 5 months to download

Build the modification station in the back by the decoy launch tube. When you get down to the lava caves and get kyanite, you can pop out the cyclops depth module mk 2, run over to the modification station, upgrade to mk 3, then run back and pop it back in before your hull collapses. It saves you having to go back above 500 ft to get the mk 3 depth module.
I have 3 power cell chargers and using the thermal reactor module, it allows my cyclops to stay charged at full power while charging my reserve power cells. Something to keep in mind, only start charging the power cells if you're in an area hot enough to charge your engines back up because 3 cell chargers will drain you fast without it
He has the “hey cletus” accent hahaha
then I'll laugh when those cyclops destroy the leviathan XD
the idea of holding all of the resources you need to make a base to recharge is really interesting I'll make sure to do that
I used it as mobile base, had 2 gardens, bed, radio etc. stuff. only problem was to recharge cyclops batteries, so you need second base for that only or you can have to lockers ready with resourse to build small room, power cell charger, solar panel or 2 and a hatch, so when you are low on power, build small base, recharge and you good to go :D. I had prawn suit in cyclops, lots of storage, i went to scavange run with it to edges of map,there was usually lot of resources, then back building main base.
If you're no concerned with aesthetics, you can get a lot more storage on the main deck but, I hadn't thought of putting grow beds in for food so I'll need to change mine up a bit. Will try to screenshot/video my setup later to show. Regardless though, the power drain is a pain to work through.
Couldent you have a seamoth in the docking bay with a solar charger modification to charge your power cells?
You could use the Seamoth to charge them, but it is not that useful really since it would require you to stay above a certain depth both for the solar charger to work and because of the depth constraints on the Seamoth.
3 years and I still find new stuff!
I always use my Cyclops as a mobile base. All I do when I start out is I stock up on rare materials (uranite, ruby, silver, nickel ore, etc.) and materials you can only find in the Kelp Forests, such as Seed Clusters, Creepvine Samples, and Stalker Teeth. Also, you have to see to it that you actually plant the vines as often as you can or you'll kick yourself if you ever need some Fiber Mesh or Bleach for whatever reason and have to go all the way back to the Safe Shallows just to get 4 or 5 of them.
I also see to it that I build all the upgrades I need for the Cyclops before I start moving towards the lava zones. The Thermal Recharge upgrade is invaluable early on since it can be used as early as the Safe Shallows at the small underwater volcanoes.
The biomes in-between Inactive Lava Zone and Safe Shallows have a tendency not to have a lot of the stuff you require in order to build bases and other things you need further on into the story.
Critical Role Highlights Hey what's the current state of the cyclops with regards to the damage it takes and it's survivability? I see lots of people complain about it but they're from a few months back
Amazing video you deserve more subscribers.

Thank you!
Love your accent.
a bit late to the thread but thought I'd point out a few things. first you can place things much more densely than that, I have four lockers, radio, batt charger, trash, mod station, and more just up in the front section. Second, the best source of food and water is bulbo trees, just a row of three pots will keep you permanently fed and watered. (tho you may want 4) I have a base with a huge peeper aquarium (5 level) and water filter and that keeps my cyclops lockers stoked with salted peepers and bottled water for prawn excursions, so I have no need to keep live fish onboard. You can also place 6 lockers up front beside your fabricator, and four pots for edible flora variety at the VERY rear of the ship on the upper level. (to keep melons, taters, bulbo, and lantern) Thanks for the idea on where to place the bed, that works well. Another good suggestion is to keep a full set of fully charged ion cells handy "just in case".
what the Cyclops lacks in order to become a "main base" is power generation and water filtration, plus some invisible walls on top of most.. well, walls, make the wall mounted furniture float mid-air and that's a -1000 style points to me.
My cyclops just has some energy cell chargers underneath the engine room (mostly for the looks, I don't use them to charge the cells as it just doesn't work), classic interior planter in front of the decoy storage, two medkits (one on the bridge and one in the locker rooms, right behind the front door), aquarium with a bench in front of it that's facing 3 vases and a display with some fancy screenshots and a standing locker on the leftmost side to house my gear.
Under the engine room I also have a wall locker with some beacons and light wands to highlight some areas even though I never use it, but it's still piece of mind.
He talks like a cowboy xD
That is way to much storage if you manage to fill all that up in survival I'll be very surprised
I have filled that much storage up many times in survival. Just takes time and good placement of a scanner room.
Looks awesome dude!
The Cyclops can't do quite everything, but, TBH, you can easily use the PRAWN and portals to quickly zip to a shallows base for access to a moon pool, if you have any sense. Upgrade the PRAWN jets, use grappler, and mount thermal module, and you can quickly travel in style. It is also a good idea to deploy beacons at the portal arches.
Ion Power Cell, I didn't know this exist. Is this experiment or normal mode?
The Ion Battery and Ion Power Cell are were added to the normal release back in January withe the Castles & Coffee Update.
MrSpicyGaming I see. Thanks
No problem.
You found it in the Active lava zone
Experimental is creative and its creative
