GHub Platform · Гайд · 0 ответов · 19 просмотров

Submerged is a short, combat-free, third-person exploration game. You play as Miku, a young girl tasked with tracking down treatments for her ailing brother, Taku. Each treatment collected will advance the wordless story. Along the way, you're free to explore a submerged city by boat and uncover its history in pictures. It's tempting to be smitten with the gorgeous visuals the first time you see them, but some players may find themselves uneasy still based on experiences with similar games. Do I have to find everything before I progress the story? Should I hold out for an upgrade? Will the main character get hurt? Etc. This reference guide will provide basic information on what players should expect so that they can enjoy the game free from worry and at a comfortable pace. Spoilers are inherent with answering any such questions, so this guide has been composed to gently assist users before providing answers outright. The bottom of most sections will contain completed maps that can be used when all other options are exhausted. Please leave a comment if you have questions or concerns about Submerged that aren't addressed below. Be warned that figuring things out for yourself is a big part of exploration games like Submerged , but in case you're worried about one factor or another here are some facts that may ease your concerns. Miku cannot die or get hurt There is no falling or slipping that will effect your progress All boat upgrades and secrets are optional There are no character upgrades; you start with the same skills you will have at the end None of the climbing sequences are timed Everything is accessible at the start of the game, and will remain accessible throughout After completing the game, an "Explore" option will be unlocked to let you collect anything you've missed Achievements can still be earned in the explorable mode All achievements can be earned in a single playthrough You will not damage the boat by repeatedly colliding with things Begin a new game under the Options menu (this will delete your current game) Accessing a new supply building will automatically reveal its secrets on your map Saving Your Game Submerged utilizes a single save state, and does not offer support for multiple save files. The game is saved automatically upon: Interacting with an object Mounting or dismounting your boat Completing an objective Exiting the game Saved games are located in Steam\steamapps\common\Submerged\Submerged\Saved\SaveGames\ if you are interested in juggling multiple save states. Saved games are also maintained in the Steam Cloud but do not use the normal Steam userdata folder to store save files. The game's Steam ID is 301860 should this change. If you need to back up your "save file," you will need to preserve both SUB_SG_0.sav and SubProfile.sav . Restore a backup save by replacing both files while on the game's main menu (not while just paused) and then restart the game. About The Telescope The telescope (accessible after retrieving the first Supply) can be very useful for spotting drifting ship upgrades from a distance, but can also be frustrating to use when it's unable to lock on to a blinking Secret in clear view. Most Secrets are visible from your normal path, and under no circumstances do you need to use the telescope to find them or anything else. Because the telescope automatically adds found items to the map it can be convenient when it works, but you shouldn't feel forced to use it. The maps provided below will assure you find anything you're missing. About Postcard Mode Submerged is one of the first games to feature a dedicated "Postcard Mode," which pauses the game to allow the player to take clean screenshots branded with the " Submerged " logo. This mode, accessed through the Pause menu (default key: P) hides all UI elements (compass, map, journal, etc.) and provides custom camera positioning options so that the player can capture some truly amazing scenes. After entering Postcard Mode, take a screenshot through Steam (default key: F12) or using the screen capture program of your choice. Don't forget, you can even trigger Postcard Mode while climbing to catch that beautiful sunset. The game's story is progressed by retrieving various supplies for Taku. Supplies are usually found on or near the tops of explorable buildings, which are marked in red on your map and may be visited in any order. You will need to retrieve supplies from 10 different buildings to complete the campaign. Atlas Island Central Steel Eclipsed State Kitezh Municipal Lyonesse Hotel Rullyeh Hotel Rungholt Memorial Library Saaftinge Hospital Skyline Condos Villdyse Hotel Steam user Chazz the Elder points out that all buildings with supply caches are marked with tattered red and white banners hung from their upper stories, making them easier to identify from the boat without using a map. The supply chests, usually high atop the buildings, are red and emit a slow beeping sound. Note that opening a supply chest will automatically return Miku to her brother, so be sure you've completed any other exploration in that area before doing so, although you can still return anytime afterward if you wish. Achievements You will earn the Concierge achievement for visiting all hotels, as well as The End for retrieving supplies from all 10 locations. (See Bugged Achievements in the section below if the Concierge achievement doesn't register correctly.) Map Below is a map showing the locations of all explorable buildings: Submerged uses the term "Secrets" to describe interactive objects littered around the game world. Though they are sometimes off the main path, they are generally not in "secret" areas or otherwise well-hidden. Each Secret collected reveals one of 60 story tiles which will provide more context about the game world. You can easily detect Secrets from a distance using the telescope, and points in range will be marked permanently on your map. Visiting one of the 10 buildings housing Supplies will automatically reveal its Secret caches on your map. Although you should certainly feel encouraged to explore the game world yourself and uncover secrets at your own pace, the below information should help you if you get stuck. If you're looking at your Journal and are missing a specific Secret, you may use the list below to try and guide you to the right location. 1-10 01: Lyonesse Hotel 02: Lyonesse Hotel 03: Immediately SW of the Shrine ("Home") 04: On the NE part of the map, just east of #5 05: North center 06: Just north of the middle of the map 07: On top of the big crane (The Bird's Eye) 08: Right near the middle of the map 09: NW toward the middle, a little east of Cantref Steel 10: NW, just north of Cantref Steel 11-20 11: NW, near the western edge of the map 12: SW, near the western edge of the map 13: SW, NW of Eclipsed State 14: SW, SE of Eclipsed State 15: South central, just east of #14 16: SE, about halfway to the edge of the map 17: East central, just south of Saaftinge Hospital 18: SE, just north of The Watchful Lady 19: East, just east of the Rungholt Memorial Library 20: SW, immediately NW of The Titan's Spear 21-30 21: East central, just west of Saaftinge Hospital 22: NE, just north of Saaftinge Hospital 23: NE, south of Rullyeh Hotel 24: Atlas Island 25: Atlas Island 26: Atlas Island 27: Atlas Island 28: Saaftinge Hospital 29: Saaftinge Hospital 30: Saaftinge Hospital 31-40 31: Saaftinge Hospital 32: On top of the Shrine ("Home") 33: Cantref Steel 34: Cantref Steel 35: Cantref Steel 36: Cantref Steel 37: Cantref Steel 38: Kitezh Municipal 39: Kitezh Municipal 40: Kitezh Municipal 41-50 41: Kitezh Municipal 42: Villdyse Hotel 43: Villdyse Hotel 44: Villdyse Hotel 45: Villdyse Hotel 46: Rungholt Memorial Library 47: Rungholt Memorial Library 48: Rungholt Memorial Library 49: Skyline Condos 50: Skyline Condos 51-60 51: Skyline Condos 52: Eclipsed State 53: Eclipsed Sta
