This isn't something that will be coming to game (therefore not marked as a spoiler) but I thought it would be really cool to share.
These images showcase a base made by the developers that was never intended to be seen- Yet it's still more cozy than anything i've built!
through the power of mods i have uncovered a developer area, which is not visible in the regular game. This area has existed for developers since launch but is more fleshed out in the experimental branch. Due to the sheer amount of content uncovered, this post will focus on the terrain. I will soon make other posts on the storyline, new vehicles, fauna/flora, ect. If you have anything specific you want me to cover just ask!
The area shown in the first image (by the blue sphere bottom left) is a crash site where you will find the new vehicle add on. The second image shows the elusive leviathans nest which will have some kind of interactive mini game of plugging the nest (i have no clue either). And the third shows the top where there has been a massive oil spill due to sabotage (this is shown by a dev text next to it). The other pictures are pretty self explanatory
To be clear, this area is NOT visible in traditional gameplay-going here without force loading the area will show none of what i am showing you.
IF YOU DONT WANT TO BE SPOILED, TURN BACK
turns out what seems to be the entire story of logs are already in the game, albeit without voices. i've barely scratched the surface so far but from what I've gathered --once again, spoilers-- Noa ends up guiding you throughout the void in your trident submarine looking for parts of a ship that crashed similarly to the aurora from the first game called "The Minggatu". However you end up stumbling upon something alien. I wish I had more to say but theres thousands of these logs and reading through is a pain and takes a while. If this gets support, I'll keep going.
heres a segment I'm really struggling to understand, let me know if you guys can piece this together
-sorry for images not screenshots
