One thing I really miss from the original Subnautica is the traditional base hatch. Having to grab the lever, twist it, and physically pull the hatch open made entering your base feel much more immersive.
The current entrances in Subnautica 2 are convenient, but they feel more like swimming through a forcefield than actually entering the base.
I’d love to see traditional hatches return as an optional entrance type so that we can have both as they are both nice in their own ways.
It would also be great to have different hatch designs, proper airlocks, and other mechanical doors that make bases feel more interactive and buildable.
I really enjoy the new modular building system, but I think bringing back some of the physical interactions and mechanical details from the original would make base building significantly more immersive.
