I find it kinda interesting that Syntac made a metal run at 3 a.m. in game because this way the temperature was bearable, but this actually the strategy employed by many desert animals, to sleep somewhere fresh during the day and the night, only waking up to their usual routines during dusk or dawn to avoid extreme cold or extreme heat. So cool how art imitates nature!
Fun fact: that wall of sand that you can see when there is a sandstorm is called a haboob and in line with the western theme we actually get them in Arizona.
The weather events on this map are insane. I literally had a thunderstorm followed by a superheat and then another thunderstorm with no time in between
The latest update seems to have toned down both the frequency and the duration, thank the Overseer. When I played earlier today they were a fun addition to my travels rather than an overwhelming annoyance.
@@supersenic I had to go to 60 fort and some lucky desert cloth & ghillie drops from beacons before the heat got manageable. Now my only real temp issues are with the cold snaps at night in some places, so I keep a couple of pieces of fur on my mount.
Not even kidding so I was testing what was needed to live in a wood base near the dunes not in the dunes no super heat midday took 1100 fortitude and full mastercraft desert cloth to not overheat
Hi Syn! I’d love to see each of the boys build a small town and connect it with trains! Maybe make a communal mining area for metal and use the carts/trains as a way of transporting it. Once y’all are settled the outlaws could try and rob someone else’s train
I'm not sure about the rest of the world but in the United States all dog food is required by federal law to be edible for humans. cat food is not that way but all forms of dog food are able to sustain humans in emergency
That makes so much sense... not the cat food though? Iv seen so many people eat canned dog food (I'd imagine you mean all types) saying it tastes perfectly edible if you HAD to eat it. Cool stuff
Yes, me too! Island didn't really catch me, never has but now playing Scorched feels so much better. The constant battle against heat and other weather is so much fun and the map is so beautiful!
Here’s a little tip for u. So where u want to build your house/base there’s a mountain right next to that area and if u go up the mountain there will be a BUNCH of metal ❤
Considering the Bob's Tall Tales barrels, if it's not possible already, it would be hilarious if someone eventually made a mod where you can stuff an unconscious enemy (or, perhaps, a tribe member 😄) into a barrel, and seal it, making it impossible for them to break out without tipping the barrel over and rolling it down a hill into a rock or something. 😆
@@zathtanks im not a history buff, but did adobe originate in the southwest? Honestly, I've never put thought into it, but I dont think ive ever seen actual adobe outside the states. There's mud huts, obviously, but idk the parallels there...
@@blakestillwell4295 It's all the same thing made with different stuff. So yeah, adobe itself probably originated in the Americas, but it's a concept that is as old as civilization.
51:10 im sorry but that was hilarious! thats one of those moments when you want to turn the game off but that clip will live on for many many compliations! lol oh... and uh good luck lol i kinda got bored fast tbh the weather events were just so much i stopped hiding and started making potions and stews so i could just ignore them. the map feels smaller than i remember especially with 5 diff players on it were ontop of each other and as far away as we could fit.
Syntac- I'm going to craft this tent and wait out the sandstorm Also Syntac- I need this crystal so bad I am going to perch precariously on the edge of this cliff and jump up with no visibility 😂
Crystal and obsidian can be found on top of the giant mesas in the middle of the map, and pearls are now at the red obelisk. There's a lot of metal at 57.7 Lat, 80 Lon. It seems to me that the weather events don't really do anything. I figured the sandstorm would drain your oxygen because, ya know, breathing in sand is bad for your health, but they're just loud and obnoxious. As for the temperature, I don't think it's bugged, I just think they changed the amount of insulation it takes to gain heat/cold resistance. Because it used to be that your resistance would increase by +/- 3ºC for every 50 insulation, but now I think it increases for every 100 insulation, which is shit if true because fortitude is important now more than ever and is less effective... I swear the devs have brain worms! EDIT: Correction, I have brain worms. The temperature and insulation is still the same, I just misread the data chart on reddit. (If you google, "Ark reddit temperature & insulation," the first result should be an explanation of how the temperature works in Ark.)
I've never played Ark in my life but I've been subscribed and watching on and off for a long time now. You're incredibly entertaining Syntac, keep up the great work! I'm binging this series so I can catch up!
Man,glad to have u back for real,loving the series so far,i would usually say take a break or something,but knowing u,u probly also excited to play the dlc and make content on it,so i appreciate the daily vids,thanks man,u da best...
If you see this Syntac, please have a page/list somewhere of your settings/mods your using. They've been very helpful in the past. Makes the game much more fun when solo.
can't wait for most of the maps to be released and have ultimate ark 2!!! It will be a blast from the past for old members of the channel. Well thats what I think. Love you vids!
He did talked about shoulder pets being able to halve the weight when u put some stuff into them and hes not using that to maybe get a bit more space for the morelatops Edit: oh nvm it took him just 5-10 minutes to remembee that
Tip for getting crystal early! I just tamed a lvl 80 lymantria/moth and flew to the high cliff mountain thing and grabbed some crystal (i have a base in the same area as yours).
One of the best QoL mods that was ever created is the Pull it mod. It makes that whole "being over encumbered and leapfrogging items across the floor" obsolete. it also allows you to move items from boxes or dinos to your work benches so much easier. I know you guys tend to keep it pretty vanilla, but that is one thing that should have been in the game from Day 1, but for some reason was never added. Just a thought.
I have almost the exact same mods as you, except for the fact that I have all the ark additions creatures, the super spyglass, and the reusables mod. I only have the reusables mod because it adds a stone tier sickle though.
I love Ark but can only run ASE so while I enjoy my time there I always look forward to Syntac Adventures in ASA :) Ty for letting me experience ASA in a way!
It's cool seeing the devs add weather events like haboobs to SE. I kind of wish they'd have added a chance to spawn a tornado during thunderstorms but I don't want to give Ark devs any more ideas to make this map anymore brutal.
A standing torch provides more heat than the forge or a torch or even the campfire. Good to have those as soon as possible (at level 7) for quick heat in very cold situations early surviving.
Be careful using the Auto Unlock Engrams mod. I was using it on my server, and after removing the mod, all of engrams were unlocked except for a few important ones such as polyer, electronics, sparkpowder, gunpowder, etc. And it didn't allow me to unlock the ones that were locked. Loving the new series!
51:21 it's almost like the game doesn't want you to get crystal. You tried so hard to collect your reward only to get knocked down by a Dire Wolf, which is what attacked you btw😂
You know what would be a really good mod for your western town, Visible storage. It acts as a reverse pull where you can build things like log sheds, set them to get a certain amount of wood and then you drop the wood off in a Dropbox and interact with it and it distributes the resources. It has custom storage bins for all sorts of resources and even a crane to pull resources from you creatures inventory. I just though it might be thematically appropriate (sans the oil drum storage)
I have been watching you for years and always looked at you as a pro and expert of ARK, and I think that in these last few episodes you have died more times than in any other full series 😂 Imagine what ASA SE the hunted would look like😮
Great job on the vids. We actually took over that middle island on day 1 and have been building out and around covering the water and giving us a huge flat area with tiers going up for defense. Cool map, can't wait to make a train set and be nerdy.
The waxy green weeds by the river gives tones of silk, the dull green weeds right next to your base along the river.. also good luck with crystals, I had to craft grappling hooks and climb to the top of the flat mountains that are next to your base and get them. There is crystal and obsidian up top of them.
I put a hatch door on the ceiling above my forge. And a ramp up to the roof for Dino’s then I can grab metal from their inventory through the ceiling. No throwing the items.
Just got my friend to start playing ark with me and he's brand new to the game and I've been playing for 4 years now so he's struggling with simple things and I just laugh on the inside
btw ANY (almost) flowers in the game giving silk, as silk is tend from silkworms, not flowers. As for crystals, they "grows" on any of those flat mountains, get flyer to get to them, or.. just buid stairs to the heaven :)
Green Ob is where I based up at eventually. Tried Red Ob 1st but it is crawling with bats, golems and kapros by the water. You will get to enjoy the horror when you need silica pearls.. Until you get 400+ heat resist, you can only survive by water.
My fortitude is at 56 and at some points I can still be pretty cold, or overheat. But I don’t usually die unless it’s a superheat with a heatstroke and like 176 degrees outside

Hey Syn, promo code doesn't work! may want to look into that!
51:20 this is Spartan!!!!
😂😂
Syn can you turn the weather sounds down a bit it almost drowns you out
hate to break it to you but your probably fucked.

Crepuscular - that's the name for animals who are active at dusk and dawn, like nocturnal for awake at night and diurnal for awake at daytime.
The timing of that saber is the definition of getting ARK'd
I'm 99% certain that it's a wolf
Sabers exist for a single reason and it's to use their silent movement and stupid knockback to instakill you off cliffs
@@GTSE2005you could see it doping the saber jump when they where falling of the cliff
Fun fact: that wall of sand that you can see when there is a sandstorm is called a haboob and in line with the western theme we actually get them in Arizona.
Yes we do I've seen a few of them
And theyr great
same in west Texas
Nevada also,this map feels like home 😅
Arizona is actually Scorched Earth irl, confirmed
The weather events on this map are insane. I literally had a thunderstorm followed by a superheat and then another thunderstorm with no time in between
Same it’s so annoying

Lmao, source = “Trust me bro”
28:50 The inhale and the "you fool!" caugh my off guard
Love the weather effects my damn that thunder is almost drowning syn out 17:33
Him climbing up the mountain reminds me of the climb up to the throat of the world in Skyrim, just keep going up at an angle😂
The weather in this games looks so good, definitely an improvement.
I’m loving scorched earth over the island so far! Idk why I just like scorch more
probably because it's so different and imo also looks better
Yes, me too! Island didn't really catch me, never has but now playing Scorched feels so much better.
The constant battle against heat and other weather is so much fun and the map is so beautiful!
😂 you made my anxiety go through the roof during the sandstorm, sabretooth moment. Definitely aren't a waiting type at times 😂
16:45 you can grab the oil while they are dead, at least you could do that in ase, i think you even got more oil from killing them first.
Here’s a little tip for u. So where u want to build your house/base there’s a mountain right next to that area and if u go up the mountain there will be a BUNCH of metal ❤
jerboas working overtime with all the weather events
Considering the Bob's Tall Tales barrels, if it's not possible already, it would be hilarious if someone eventually made a mod where you can stuff an unconscious enemy (or, perhaps, a tribe member 😄) into a barrel, and seal it, making it impossible for them to break out without tipping the barrel over and rolling it down a hill into a rock or something. 😆
I caught this right as I'm looking for something to do while waiting for an argy to tame. Perfect.
"way too hot in the day and way to cold at night" - did you mean March and April in the American Southwest? Yesterday in AZ high was 87, low was 38...
You know how the southwest handles this???? Adobe.
@@zathtanks im not a history buff, but did adobe originate in the southwest? Honestly, I've never put thought into it, but I dont think ive ever seen actual adobe outside the states. There's mud huts, obviously, but idk the parallels there...
Would be hotter here in the south(Mississippi) but it keeps raining.
@@blakestillwell4295 It's all the same thing made with different stuff.
So yeah, adobe itself probably originated in the Americas, but it's a concept that is as old as civilization.
Just loved spotting that Sabre before Syntac got yeeted off the hill 😂
51:10 im sorry but that was hilarious! thats one of those moments when you want to turn the game off but that clip will live on for many many compliations! lol oh... and uh good luck lol
i kinda got bored fast tbh the weather events were just so much i stopped hiding and started making potions and stews so i could just ignore them. the map feels smaller than i remember especially with 5 diff players on it were ontop of each other and as far away as we could fit.
Syntac- I'm going to craft this tent and wait out the sandstorm
Also Syntac- I need this crystal so bad I am going to perch precariously on the edge of this cliff and jump up with no visibility
😂
Man, this looks super beautiful. Gives me a lot of hope for Aberration down the line, i probably will jump into ASE when that drops
Day 2 of asking Syntac to use procoptodon to find resource locations.
I wish they would add the Thorny Dragon saddle skin from the base game. I rly liked it and would love to use it again :(
I love how he just casually assumes that everyone has an advanced quantum computer that can run Ark Ascended
16:42 the morellotops in the background looks alot like the one syntac gave to axe
Day 91 of telling Syntac that he's making everyone's day better
Crystal and obsidian can be found on top of the giant mesas in the middle of the map, and pearls are now at the red obelisk.
There's a lot of metal at 57.7 Lat, 80 Lon.

LOVE UR VIDS UR THE BEST TH-camR
Whip is fairly good tool to gather silk, fiber berries even sand and cactus stuff from those mini cactus bushes.
Yeah the weather on Scorched is nuts compared to how it used to be. Also possible RIP Reginald the second.
I think the jerboas call to signal the beginning and end of a weather event, so half of their calls don't actually indicated something incoming.
11:12 syntac sees raptor aslo syntac: nah I'd win
You should make a second story of the house thats warm, and the bottom is cool.
Man,glad to have u back for real,loving the series so far,i would usually say take a break or something,but knowing u,u probly also excited to play the dlc and make content on it,so i appreciate the daily vids,thanks man,u da best...
If you see this Syntac, please have a page/list somewhere of your settings/mods your using. They've been very helpful in the past. Makes the game much more fun when solo.
Yeah it’s definitely the jerboas who are making so much weather events they just keep using their cuteness to control the weather
Yeah the weather events seem ridiculous sometimes like the other night I had a heat then a thunderstorm and sandstorm instantly one after the other.
can't wait for most of the maps to be released and have ultimate ark 2!!! It will be a blast from the past for old members of the channel. Well thats what I think. Love you vids!
Yeah in 2039
Day 3 of telling syntac that he is making everybody's day better
You know what would be really funny? If the devs made it so that if you disabled jerboa spawns it disabled weather events 😂
Mountain shaper (name for the morellatops)
He did talked about shoulder pets being able to halve the weight when u put some stuff into them and hes not using that to maybe get a bit more space for the morelatops

proud to say ive been subscribed to you for 6 years🙏 since i was 10

I have almost the exact same mods as you, except for the fact that I have all the ark additions creatures, the super spyglass, and the reusables mod. I only have the reusables mod because it adds a stone tier sickle though.
if yall were ever curious about what its like living in Arizona, scorched is the prime example 🤣
I love Ark but can only run ASE so while I enjoy my time there I always look forward to Syntac Adventures in ASA :) Ty for letting me experience ASA in a way!
This is why I love the awesome teleporter
he's pumping out episodes so fast i'm back here when there's like 7 or 8 now
Guys, Ark Ascended is free in steam for 2 days
It would be neat if sandstorms slowly filled your inventory with sand - eventually encumbering you until you empty your pockets.
It's cool seeing the devs add weather events like haboobs to SE. I kind of wish they'd have added a chance to spawn a tornado during thunderstorms but I don't want to give Ark devs any more ideas to make this map anymore brutal.

You can hide in barrels?!?!? Rodeo Clown style Taming time! Let's gooooo!!
Thanks for the reminder
Subed after 2 years or so that i regular watch your videos
Sorry it took me so long
I have a feeling that the temperatures seem more extreme that the OG Scorched Earth.
A 2v2 - Outlaws vs Righteous Brothers playthrough would be great for some epic train top / western town showdowns
7:26 It’s one thing to play with little Syntac, it’s another thing to play with little Jim.
I can't wait for Ab and Extinction the new textures are gonna look so amazing
Everyone always forgets that you can respawn with your Implant now. Including myself.
Syntac stealing from other players is what I would call "gentle theft"
If the morellatops makes it to next episode how about naming it camerupt since they're both based on camels and do look kinda similar
5:54 you should at Qol+ it adds the ability to pull like S+
Still very buggy, but nice when its working. Nothing game-breaking but sometimes the pull menu just... doesnt open
@@alext9550 hmm. The only issue I’ve seen was with the visual storage so I removed it and it stopped. Maybe a mod conflict?

The temperature is actually insane on this map. Even with desert cloth and 100 fort i still overheat and die almost instantly once superheat hits

Great job on the vids. We actually took over that middle island on day 1 and have been building out and around covering the water and giving us a huge flat area with tiers going up for defense. Cool map, can't wait to make a train set and be nerdy.
I just built my base on stilts in the middle of the shallow lake. Built as separate houses with pier walkways between
The waxy green weeds by the river gives tones of silk, the dull green weeds right next to your base along the river.. also good luck with crystals, I had to craft grappling hooks and climb to the top of the flat mountains that are next to your base and get them.

I put a hatch door on the ceiling above my forge. And a ramp up to the roof for Dino’s then I can grab metal from their inventory through the ceiling. No throwing the items.

37:15 that made me think of ivan from the cluster
Thank you for the amazing content
How exactly does one get heatstroke while also suffering from hypothermia?
reginald casually watching his owner slaughter his kin
btw ANY (almost) flowers in the game giving silk, as silk is tend from silkworms, not flowers. As for crystals, they "grows" on any of those flat mountains, get flyer to get to them, or.. just buid stairs to the heaven :)
Green Ob is where I based up at eventually. Tried Red Ob 1st but it is crawling with bats, golems and kapros by the water. You will get to enjoy the horror when you need silica pearls.. Until you get 400+ heat resist, you can only survive by water.
@5:18 hahaha you worked so hard for it too
Haha what an ending. Gonna be hard to go get Jeep. Cause that's his name.
When I was a kid I would taste test dog treats.. I think I might have tried dog food before as well lmao 😭
The white flowers whit a hint of red gives the best amount of silk (if u dont count some creatures atleast what i have noticed)
such a clifhanger , great episode syntac \o/
My fortitude is at 56 and at some points I can still be pretty cold, or overheat. But I don’t usually die unless it’s a superheat with a heatstroke and like 176 degrees outside
