Ice Fishing In The ARCTIC For Sustenance | Vintage Story Polar Start #3

[@jakeking974]

Episode 1: the Arctic is cold, but fair Five minutes into Episode 3: y'know, I'm starting to like the Arctic Five minutes later: I hate it here.

[@aaronherrera33]

End of episode: ´´It is a minimal victory... but a victory nonetheless´´.

[@dividewalker5673]

Going from Claudette _purging_ Kingsmouth Island with no issue to fighting tooth and nail just to not starve or freeze in the arctic is the kind of mood whiplash I'm here for.

[@wojciechgrechuta3351]

For efficient bait you can cut meat into jerky, lasts long and you get quite some out of one piece of meat. It also makes sense to bait fish with smal pieces and not whole ass cutlet. I love the series i usually play in tropical regions so it's nice change there are also types of fish traps made out of 8 stakes around one space of water, you save reeds by using sticks although efficiency can differ

[@briannaherrington949]

Lime: *Finds sorta paradise in the Arctic* Location: *Is absolutely haunted by powers beyond human imagination and comprehension*

[@jakeking974]

That campfire storage system is freaking ingenious

[@robertboyce4806]

Congrats on finding a place to root! Don't forget, if you make an adze, you can strip the bark off of the logs that you cut down, to make bark baskets for ground storage. You can still use the stripped wood for the fire, too!

[@lordofchaosd327]

This is a modded thing, Pr1vateLime is using mods but I don't know if the mod adds the adze is in here.

[@brett8945]

Thank you for commenting that! Doing a current run with his mods and I have no luck finding reeds!

[@jakeking974]

>APOCALYPTIC RIFT ACTIVITY EXCUSE ME?! The highest I've seen in my world, the one where I traveled SIXTY-FIVE THOUSAND BLOCKS before settling down (did an Arctic spawn, nomaded my way to the temperate zones), the highest I've seen was "High", with most being "Calm" to "Medium" and I've found that "Medium" is usually followed by "Calm" after a single night of hiding from thrown rocks. "Apocalyptic"? Yeah, no, I'd be NOPE-ing out of there too.

[@kajmel6444]

Well, Rift activity changes overtime so in same place you can have no rifts and sometimes even apocaliptic ^^

[@sneediumminer]

Rift activity is global, not based on any one area. Drifters also only spawn at night so its really not too scary. The surface drifters are a complete joke and it's only the deep drifters and such that can mangle an unarmored players.

[@astererratum6546]

I got super unlucky on my first play of VS. I got Apocalyptic on day 1. Not fun. Got completely ganked.

[@ninjaattack3000]

This playthrough is making me want to play the game again

[@SupahTrunks7]

I was so worried when lime was walking on the clear ice thinking it was gonna crack and send him falling

[@MacF3arsome]

Picked up this game because of your videos. It is so challenging, but it's the survival game I always wanted yet didn't know it existed until now.

[@anthonysong3612]

After a bad night's sleep, your video is sweet, sweet honey to my eyes. Thanks as always for videos, lime.

[@zebeautiful]

yeah i'll watch it just before sleeping, it's only good vibes

[@manboy4720]

you don't eat honey with your eyeballs.

[@Kevbo2040]

This series is oddly fascinating, I really hope it continues. I love seeing how in-depth VS is.

[@WyvernDotRed]

The apocalyptic rift activity is actually a global weather effect, but as the gear was turning counter-clockwise, you made the right decision with leaving.

[@vienie1245]

Glad to see you doing a playthrough of this! I've even started my own solo world trying to survive in the frozen wasteland~

[@nahson7192]

Actually somewhat survivable, warm enough for the snow to melt! Now to hope a bear doesn't decide to move in next door :D

[@boi5573]

So glad to see that this is a series :D the Project Zomboid challenges have been amazing but it’s good to see some other survival games getting some love!

[@kajmel6444]

Comment for the blessing of the algorithm

[@awfrailey]

Need stakes for fishing lines, and how deep doesn't really matter too much. Rift activity isn't tied to if area is unstable btw. Jerky the bushmeat to use for baits , you can get clay from panning sand and gravel , takes a long time but it can be done.

[@huff3782]

Your recent videos in this game convinced me to buy it! Awesome vids :)

[@fidgetmeow0999]

watched your one chunk playthrough before, and have been loving this series too. it pushed me to buy the game and i've been having a blast with it :)

[@WWCL4Life]

Lime playing Vintage Story is *chef’s kiss* 🤌

[@redfoxofspire6132]

I am very curious with this series being a freezing cold version how an opposite version would go or if it'd be possible to do something like that, maybe in a future video... love the content keep it up chief!

[@jabbynouchet]

Damb im glad this episode is out that soon! I was waiting for it in the next 3 to 4 days and when i saw it happiness fill me

[@nopenope8418]

Sees temperature in the game and PrivateLime feeling concerned. Laughs in Canadian. That is polar spring or fall, in the winter you would easily reach -25 C to -40 C and maybe -50 C on a bad day... not counting wind chill there. Summer you might get as high as 15 C, might. Now is -15 C that cold? Yes, dangerously so. If you aren't clothed enough you will die from hypothermia eventually. But with a good wool shirt, pants, long johns and a coat, it is fairly warm.

[@YogurtSnipe]

I love this new game I found. It’s basically Minecraft but for adults. This game is literally what I’ve been looking for ever since I stopped playing Minecraft in 2018.

[@NotKnafo]

10:20 i think it was the boney soil that allowed you to use it and you might be able to use snow

[@Karina-winsmore]

You can build a greenhouse and farm for a couple of months. You can use glacier ice instead of glass for greenhouse, one of the few advantages of arctic. Also, using spear as a melee weapon is very cringe, it will do much more damage when thrown. I belive one spear throw will kill a rabbit, and two will kill a fox. Bears will require around 15. My strat for surviving arctic was hunting bears with an inventory full of spears.

[@atroxie]

or you can just dig a hole 4 blocks deep get a bear to chase u drop in the hole and poke it from beneath :P simple but reliable

[@Karina-winsmore]

@@atroxie you could, but thats too cheesy for me.

[@atroxie]

@@Karina-winsmore While it is true it is a cheesy method it is also a smart method especially when 1 hit from a bear is bye bye lol

I gotta say, I love the music you chose when editing these videos.

[@jacob6885]

It's the in-game music

[@tidepod10yearsago97]

you earned a new subscriber, hoping to see more of this!

[@buddyransom2790]

After watching this series I am trying to get 3 of my friends interested in vintage story so I can spring a world like this on them lol

[@kajmel6444]

​@Pr1vateLime You can throw spears by holding right click, its useful to rabbits etc :p

[@cyburn7856]

Home sweet home, Grug. Home sweet home.

[@luandourado7249]

Loving the series. Reminds me of some survival mods in Minecraft. Ty for the vids Lime

[@TheAratine]

Fun fact, this game actually was a modpack in Minecraft to begin with.

[@jacob6885]

Rift activity changes like weather. And with a slow drip of temporal stability lose, you could make short trips out to recover every day or two.

[@sossololpipi9633]

unlike weather though, it isn't area specific at all.

[@lexingtondavid]

It may be a bit better for you to take a knife to the bushmeat to make jerky, it more or less just extends the uses of baitable foods you can use now that you have a large trot line going on

[@CyberVonCyberus]

Nice spot you found there, curious to see what the future holds for Grug.

[@samuemond]

Waiting for the next episode! This series is awesome!

[@VitorEmanuelOliver]

You could have taken the cobblestone blocks from the ruins to set up your fishery. Using bony soil feels like a waste lol

[@loopityscoop3516]

YOU CAN GET CLAY! if you pan in any of the gravel/sand it can drop clay

[@thunderousavenger2382]

Tbh this series is fantastic

[@silasplague5113]

so looking forward to your advancements !

[@brunolf8636]

Walking so close to the bears 😱

[@anthonygoulet3919]

I dont understand half as much as I would like to understand while you speak. I've never player this game so that explains it. Though I like the way you speak so i'm still listening to you while playing my own game!

[@Travelenthusiastrk28]

Yet another great video Lime! Keep it up.

[@DaShoopdahoop]

Lurking here for a while, this looks like an amazing game, I still wonder if you can start a farm by heating up an isolated place, or do the plants need sunlight to grow? Either way, good luck on your nomadic adventure Lime!

[@Blademaster162]

There's a setting for it during world creation, but I believe by default plants cannot be grown too far under ground and need sunlight.

[@lordofchaosd327]

you can make greenhouses, you just need the roof of a room to have enough percent of it be glass

[@cdgonepotatoes4219]

You can build greenhouses which give tilled soil a +5°C temperature bonus so you can extend the growing period by a bit, normally. Of course, you'd need the weather to at least touch -5°C at some point of the year to make use of it. (default settings) As you go below sea level, the temperature rises by 1°C per layer (up to +5°C) but so does the light level crops require to grow by 1 (the cap in growth normally is 19, the maximum light level is 22, crops get a growth penalty of 10% for every light level below optimal and stop entirely at light level 9, meaning you can go down 13 blocks before growing crops becomes completely impossible). You can probably still grow something with artificial lighting and glacier ice works as glass, but if you're experiencing -30°C/F in the spring that's doubtful to say the least. And no, increasing the room's temperature with torches and campfires doesn't affect the crops sadly. A more realistic temperature and climate control model may be coming in the future, but this is what we're dealing with now. Vintage Story is highly customizable in its world settings so you can enable underground farming and remove the light level penalty, but is that really arctic survival? I'd argue that's more dwarf survival. I had yet to see someone doing the arctic challenge like a true Eskimo by using mods over just enabling underground farming, so this series is a fresh one.

[@sniezeksniezkowaty6719]

Less go another episode I'm lovin it

this is such an awesome series

[@jeremybarrett3616]

Any plans for the temporal storm that is to come Lime? And there were a few larger ruins at a few points it looked like so that could be good to explore. Also congrats on your first Drifter encounter this run. :P

[@Hovado_Lesni]

TerraFirmaCraft is my favourite Minecraft. I was so sad they stopped making it. Im buying this game. Thanks

[@FORSTAKEN_YT]

Best series so far

[@drrattenkaiser5275]

You can cut down meat in to jerky to get more baits

[@payodomingo6789]

You not grug you ützi the ice man

[@KrabNomad]

Couldn’t you have used a bunch of the gravel and stacked it in the lake, for the fishing line, to save the boney soil? Also I hope these eps start to blow up. Would like for Private Lime to be able to play other games and not be stuck in Project Zomboid. As much as I like PZ, and PL’s videos of it at that, I wouldn’t want to get stuck in one game forever.

[@deadrainbowblitz4913]

Minecraft’s newest update is lookin wild

[@Brigtzen]

you can use logs as solid blocks instead of bony soil

[@Templar1ca]

"I say we go Eastward." Wagooooooooooooons East.

[@grandfremdling3841]

This is fun to watch!

[@eggbob1412]

After the ice age challenged do a desert world challenge.

[@Brigtzen]

there is sadly no overheating system in the game

[@danieltweit3702]

loving the videos bud

[@rogofos]

you know Igloos don't usually have fires inside of them if they did they'd have chimneys on the top without a chimney you'll suffocate yourself with that fire

[@2ndbrain909]

thankfully that's not an issue in game.

[@TheMasterAtNothing]

Hmmm, Artic sounds similar to the Arctic... Oh, he obviously just invented a new continent. Duh.

[@dfprod.]

i just noticed that aa

[@TheMasterAtNothing]

​@dfprod. yooo it got changed

Why are we cursed with loving hard games?!?! You are to blame for this one heheh

[@Ziomus933]

[@alexburgdorf419]

Grugg is adapting to multi plane life really well... yah know, not everyone adapts to the z axis so well

[@captainjirk9564]

Uhm actchually project zomboid already has a z axis

[@notoriousgoblin83]

I will say, it is possible to kill those bears, but you'll need about 8 or more spears and ideally a slope or non frozen lake, since animals are slower than you in water and do not have as good parkour skills as the player. They also take fall damage, but they're so damn tanky it won't do anything.

[@userequaltoNull]

Hey berry picker, are you ever going to upload all of those sessions you've played this game on Otz' multiplayer RP server, with such stars as RimmyDownUnder, Warpuggs, Kavlo, and Borgus the House-Pig?

[@hgbguy]

Nice to see the turnaround looking forward to the next one.

[@PsychopathicCake]

Hey lime! I’m enjoying your vintage story videos…even though it looks like modded Minecraft lol. Can you play The Long Dark sometime? That would be awesome. Anyway stay safe!

[@darkhan4584]

Use gravel gravity to make a pillar on a side of the pack of dirt and bones you used to place the stick and put a snow block under with it? To get them back?

[@TheSynthiaOfficial]

I love this game

[@maxxloki2110]

Hey plays this the best no lie

[@roberturlaub8526]

just an idea. can you bait bears over an cliff to kill and harvest them? i could imagine that this will be a good way to get rid of them and get some meat aswell.

[@slarzyer]

i think the ruin blocks would be much better option for the posts....

[@jacob6885]

Holding an off-hand item penalizes your hunger (by I think 15%)

Wow this was interesting I hope you will find some home ^-^

[@rogofos]

it is 3 am I cannot sleep so guess what I'm watching now

[@TheGrimjackfromCPT]

Just Incase it might be a smart idea to building a wooden path to your fish traps incase the damn ice melts cause ayy it looks like that area has allot of melting going on and it would be a shame if the ice melts and then you can't get to your traps😬

[@Enpofield]

I'll be honest here I didn't know this game has sanity mechanic; being in arctic while atmosphere is being chaotic... is double whammy. Hope you get a least backpack from one of ruins or abandon villages.

[@styxriverr5237]

Does he ever figure out he needs sharped sticks to make trot line posts?

[@Cromsblood1]

Nah you can use almost anything for trotline posts, even a block of dirt. It wasn't working because if it's wider than a trotline post, you need to clear what's on the ground around the post. That fence would have worked but the snow on the ground around it needed to be cleared.
