Their business strategy will be releasing another rendered picture every six months to bring in new investors and inevitably after few years they will ethier go bankrupt or become another yacht company that will call itself "yacht market disruptor" or "the most innovative yacht company".
or they just the psyop to cover up a new class 9f military submarine being build, u cant hide a drydock from satelites but u can lie about what u building there
I'm sure it will be a submarine*
*maximum operational depth 2 meters from surface to cabin, and must have it's conning tower, bridge, and snorkel completely exposed at all time
Or, seeing as it's billionaire bullshit, it will be an ecological disaster. What do you want to offer for the odds that it will have shit navigation, and throws out pings every 3 seconds if submerged? Goodbye local wildlife, recreational diving, and all other activities taking place underwater.
Good point. If any part of a vessel never fully submerges, can it be termed a submarine?
Not really, but it will be good enough to get some affluenza fuck to drop $2bil on it
according to their official page they do have it specced out for 4 weeks of fully submerged operation with a max depth of 250 meters. However, literally none of this is real as it's just a concept model without real engineering or a prototype built, so the chances of it meeting such specs upon delivery of the final product are... whatever the fuck you feel like they are. Anyone can put whatever numbers they want on a concept model, feasibility be damned.
For non military or explorative purposes there is absolutely no reason to go that deep. The "submarine experience" at 50m is the same as at 250m. And it smells terribly, because recycling sweaty air only goes that far.
Will this one also be steered with a gaming controller?
No this one is PC based
Pretty hard to download these mandatory windows updates when youre uner 500m of water.
Meh, I've seen a few of these pop up and get articles written about them over the years. They usually disappear soon after. Probably just trying to scam money from Investors.
US Subs has offered these for decades and they're a legit commercial submarine firm. I'm not sure anyone actually wants to buy them.
I've never served on a sub, but I've seen videos, and "luxury" is probably the last thing that comes to mind in relation to submarines.
well yeah, military subs arent built for comfort. neither are military surface vessels.
you can make anything luxurious if you pump enough money into it.
Let's make sure all the billionaires hear about this yeah?
I think we can market this as "underwater fireworks" and actually make money while the problem solves itself.
Welcome aboard Captain. All systems online
I want a sequel to that game now damn it.
There was a sequel of sorts, Subnautica: Below Zero. It feels pretty different, but it's fun in its own right.
Yep. Played and beat it in less than a week. It was really fun and spooky.
Where's a sequel at? Any games in development similar to it?
I think there is a sequel in the works. Supposed to be co op also!
I wonder if depth charges work the same on luxury subs as they do on military ones?
Eat the rich!
No, I don't think they'd work the same. If military subs are rated and tested similarly to big ships like aircraft carriers, they are extremely resilient again underwater explosions
I doubt that this thing, if it existed, would be as durable.
I'm ready for someone to disrupt the super yacht market with some fucking torpedoes.
Ah, yes, to get to their bunker undetected when the revolt begins.
Unironically, yes, that probably is what it's for. I wouldn't be surprised if Larry Ellison and Mark Zuckerberg are excavating under sea cliffs in Lānaʻi as we speak.
New Zealand, there's a billionaire commune there that's been robbery criticized for bunker building and pay to stay passports.

It even has a pool inside it!
Why would you want to spend 4 weeks trapped in a hotel with no windows?
It has windows.
Clarification: the bogus AI images they've got have windows in the viewing gallery. It's all bullshit though - it features the images from SAFE that are allso bullshit but keep popping up in various articles, notably* the MRI room.
Because you're filthy rich and want to let all those pesky peasants know how much more valuable your rich life is, so much you can literally "survive underwater" while they suffer on the surface
Dezeen nuts
Ha! Gottem)
What's the point if it's not nuclear and doesn't have any SLBMs?
My super-yacht-sub needs to run on fossil fuels or what even is the point?
I mean, they know what not to do after the last time right?
Yes, don't cheap out on the life insurance
Orcas gonna fuck this thing up.
Pleasepleaseplease put bazillions of dollar-equivalents into building this thing and then get it stuck in ice that later cuts into the hull and sinks it 🙏 I know the unfathomably wealthy will never do anything to make this world actually decent but they can at least let us have a decent laugh once in a while!
(I'm assuming the pollution left before it's towed out of the environment will be less than the pollution from actually running the thing) (Also "towed out of the environment" is a funny reference. May need to look up "front fell off." I am asleep.)
Ahh yes, the super rich's favorite scenery in their luxurious craft, pitch black.
Getting a bit "Nautilus from League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" vibes
Wasn't there a mission in one of the Armored Core games where you sank shit like that?
