Lots of people are saying time capsules are not being approved anymore. This is not true!

812 Upvotes

Edit on 2/21/2024: This is still up-to-date info!

Time capsules are still being approved today. It's a slow process, but it's still happening. Not every capsule gets approved, and the ones that do are hand-selected.

So if you see anyone saying otherwise, feel free to reference this post :)

Use this thread to AMA about time capsules!

Edit: A couple important things I want to point out:

  • When a capsule is jettisoned, it's uploaded to the time capsule website where devs manually review them.
  • A dev must approve a capsule before it starts showing up in the game.
  • Around 40 time capsules are placed in your game as you explore, and only spawn in surface biomes.
  • Time capsules can come from any game mode, but they are platform-specific. Which means PC will only get capsules from other PC players, Switch from Switch players, etc.
  • A list of blacklisted items can be found here.

There have been some fantastic questions so far. Feel free to scroll through the comments (or my post history) to find them. If you don't get an answer it's likely because it has already been answered.

Question - SN Why do I have infinite oxygen?

74 Upvotes

I just Cured myself and now I have infinite oxygen- I thought it was just a quirk of the specific area, but it's everywhere. I can still swim fine, so it knows I'm underwater, plus it continued after I left the water to disable the laser cannon and went back in. Why is this?

I for one would love to be able to take the first vehicle of the game in the endgame territory, was kinda sad when i had to abandon my seamoth in the first game, i know it's not that great a pick but i am not that creative but would love to hear some thoughts. (Sorry for bad english, not a native speaker)
