A Mod you'd like Syntac is Move Tool, it lets you rotate and move structures to a very fine detail plus you can scale structures to be bigger or smaller

The amount of resources, farming and time it takes to make something as massive as this. Truly the Syntac episode of all time.

Okay Syntac I'm gonna be real with you here, I don't know how everyone else who watches your videos feels about what I'm about to say but, I love it when you show us your building projects in ASA, I'd watch a 3 hour plus video of one of your building projects like this bridge, I know you say you regret it in the title but in my opinion in order for you to continue to build it even after you started regretting it to me means some part of you even if it's a small part really enjoys doing it because of all the different details and ways you can do the build For anyone that agrees that they'd watch a 3 hour plus building video from Syntac on ASA vote by liking or commenting this comment to show that you wouldn't mind it

[@Verezen]

same, honestly thats what made me subscribe to Syntac cause it was the Cluster s1 where he built his first base in rag that I actually subbed to the channel. (oldest video I watched was Ultimate ark ep 1 though but I didn't subscribe or watch all his vids till cluster s1)

It's honestly the crazy building projects that have kept me interested in Ark for so long. I've never been all that driven to beat the bosses or play PVP, so it's the desire to fuel my building projects that pushes me to get better tames and explore for resources. Nothing kills a save file faster than completeing all of my building ideas for a location 😂 One of my most-played games of all time and I've never beat a single map, lmao

Syntac, I watch your videos no matter what, but I must say, you are a master builder in Ark, brother. No matter how much you inspire me to build, I pretty much never even come CLOSE to anything you create. I end up living in a box or a rectangle most of the time. I have no idea how you managed to get through this bridge build but it's a fricking masterpiece! Do not let anyone tell you otherwise! Well done, sir!

[@Emserz]

This reminds me of a guy on my cluster who built a big base on Extinction. He painted the whole thing, and then had to abandon the base because loading all the custom painted structures was lagging him out. I was a bit worried when you talked about painting this bridge. The rendering of structures is definitely improved in ASA which is great, but oh man I'd still be scared to build something of this magnitude within my main base's render distance. Anyway, the name Bridgette comes to mind.

[@machinezone-ho5do]

The center of the bridge is where the troll lives, maybe Axe could take it over? Beautiful build, really makes your base the best! Great job Syntac!!!

[@lindaorr9434]

Wow, the bridge is gorgeous! You mentioned the stairs at the end and the central area…for the stairs, maybe a landing halfway up would help minimize the steep look: for the center part, pedestals with artifacts and special Dino’s would be really cool!! Awesome job🎉👍!!

[@anc13ntoblivion64]

Bro, I have to say, this is a true spectacle. Axe definitely needs to step up his building game after this lmao. Also, I worry you may feel some burnout after this outstanding monument's creation and I would completely understand but hope you put those concerns to bed cause I absolutely love your content. You're a blessing for the Ark community.

I like the cables on top of the bridge. If you carried that over to the main base area, it would give a Jurassic park kind of theme which would be cool

[@kou2fye954]

Holy absolute freak, Syntac. Your buildings r always so crazy and amazing, and I would never have the skill or imagination to build your creation. Much love and keep up the amazing builds.

[@themallimalli]

This is so amazing, I can't even begin to describe the sheer amount of time and resources this took - you're a true Ark artist! But I thought about the beginning and the end, the steep stairs, maybe you could add like an extra step in the middle? Like it goes down 2 stairs and then out maybe 3 ceilings and then down 2, and you could add like a flat area on the side columns with something cool on them? Like on big stairs to museums and such? I don't know, you see these things so much better than all of us but that's just a thought that came to me, hope it made sense 😁 Thank you for the amazing inspiration! I miss these kind of decorations with Bobs tall tales on ASE...

[@karleylindstrom2762]

The center section reminds me of the old time pictures of Grand Central Station before the skyscrapers took over. Very classy build.

[@barnboys7037]

[@thecrazykidsfromdevianart4882]

Found out a new building fact today. Turns out you can connect vacuum compartments to pillars and it will act as a foundation. I have a bridge (in creative mode) with them near the surface, only use one or 2 pillars and it works great. Figured it out when i placed pillars so deep into the ocean they werent counting as support

[@holmeeni89]

I really dont envy the time you put in the building, but I envy how magnificent the build looks. Great job love you Syntac!

[@Grexgar]

Wow, just wow. Absolutely massive respect for this huge build. It looks great and I think if you took the idea of the "wires" from the bridge to your water pen that would tie in nicely.

[@alpaka7154]

[@zachdailygames]

I am so glad you made this. This is the most incredible build I seen in Ark! It's so cool!!

[@lucashead6142]

For the entryways, you could perhaps use the ramps going down from where you have them. Then when they hit the edge, split it off, so the ramp access is a 'T' rather than the straight line. You could potentially mask the uneven walls using the stone rails, pillars, & half walls.

[@BiCoastalGaming]

[@seandenning8604]

How about calling it the Bridge of Love, cos of the love you have for axe😁 Great episode again Syn, I have an idea up to yourself if ya wanted to roll with it, but that underground area below the bridge could be used as maybe a mini track for sending stuff to axe and back and forth,kinda like what ye did in Scorched but on a smaller scale to send stuff to each other. Even call it the Post Bridge!!

[@thunderbasilisk1352]

Does Syntac have a building problem? Yes. Do we want him to stop? No. All jokes aside I personally(and I can probably speak for quite a few people on here) absolutely love it when you build something like this. Especially if its needlessly grand looking. Everything you make is always unique and inspiring to see built.

[@golden.personality]

23:35 though he built a mech wt. Anyways✝️ God lives yall, and syntac is bless with architecture

[@waveclaw]

Neat bridge. You can embrace the off-center island and make the gatehouse asymmetrical. If you can pillars at angles, there are tricks using the funny snap points of wood spike walls to get any angle you want. Even sideways walls so you can use giant hatchrames in place of doors.

[@TobyCopper]

As soon as I saw the first few seconds of the video my mind was absolutely blown. Well done Syntac.

[@shortbrit3573]

If you want to make the stairs appear less steep, perhaps you could use ceilings between like every two or three stair pieces to create a tiered look with landings. You could then have the stairs extend outside of the bridge, which would add a little more depth and texture to the exit/entrance of the bridge and make it look a little less flat.

[@DynaKitty]

It's truly a magnificent bridge. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@bouncybugs]

I'm just excited to see it lit up at night! Amazing build!

[@Rosalalie]

[@angrydrunkengerman2819]

I'm a big fan of building in Ark (despite how much of a pain in the azz Wildcard makes it.) I'm glad you're doing more building. No, we don't want to watch every second of every build but I do enjoy seeing the different and creative things people build in the game.

[@_Shinasu]

We need a train track next to the bridge or on the bridge! I reckon that would look pretty cool and would surely be useful? The bridge is a work of art. You really outdid yourself on it 👍 could always add a sloped part at the ends of the bridge so its not so square looking

[@SurvivorDK]

LOL, best intro ever! Builder's remorse

[@laminatedsamurai]

Under the bridge would be a great place for some track to send a train back and forth. Then that could also give the extra detail you wanted on the ends of the bridge.

[@d4rkw0l75]

This reminds me of the rings in aberration.. Amazing work 💪

[@xenomorphoverlord]

[@mzhyde1466]

One thing with the stairs that you could do break them up with a foundation or ceilings in between and have a couple levels of stairs. Like the first bit, then flat, then the rest? Idk if that would look good, but it would help break up that slope if you don’t like it.

I agree the stairs are steep, I've used them in multiple builds and no matter how I set them up, I fly off from the top and take damage.

[@Zaralena7]

Tthe entrance to the bridge kinda looked like the Aberration portals. I dunno why.

[@StegoRaptor333]

You should add some large potted trees/plants to the building in the middle of the bridge 😊

[@marquisearbuthnot4786]

This is amazing bro great job fr 👏🏼👏🏼💯

[@brisecho1488]

Can always add benches and some other frontier decor in the middle. Or a mini kitchen. Just as a little pit stop between going across.

[@gotyam]

My trick for stairs is to use half walls and ramps, Half down - one ceiling out - half down - etc. Stair/Ramp to add slope. Sadly can't get a smooth slope, but I find it better than the 45 degree stairs.

[@TreeMan25]

[@redhs2142]

Do you have a mod list for this series?

[@Pepper6868]

Maybe an idea for the center part of the bridge, putting some storages down and putting some items for trade or things you don't want any longer. That way materials aren't wasted and animals that are no longer 'useful' can still be useful to someone.

[@xentricityy8832]

Syntac that’s crazy. Much respect. Holy shit. I mean I’ll build big ass projects but that’s nuts in an amazing way

[@refridgalator]

Maybe for the ends, you could use ramps but start them at the top of where you have the ramps right now. The ramps would come out a bit from the end wall of the bridge and you could build maybe a smaller archway around it? It might also make the end look less weird cause I think most of the weirdness comes from everything being so flush with the wall. build looks fantastic!!!

[@AlleyCatt611]

Wowza 😮 even on creative mode, i don't think i could have followed this large of a build all the way through! *Clap clap clap* *bows* ❤
