Name the sarco crapo

[@lonedutch973]

North side of white . Behind the small iceberg. There is a small cliff about 1/3 the way up with crystal underneath. Great spot for a cabin in the woods.

[@enolaburroughs1172]

The hidden lake had some nice changes and it would put you pretty far north and around the mountains, plus there is one of the big rivers so you could move pretty quickly if your still using the sarco by then. Edit I'm a moron and didn't see that you wrote snow, but if you decide not to ;)

[@DjXavier189]

"The sarco is the best water traveling mount" *shows him clubbing penguins at the thumbnail* 💀

[@Deathstalker8817]

Thats because he probably used the sarco to get to the arctic by sea

The sarco bug Is a disconnect between the client and the server The client thinks you have done a turn and bite to change your direction The server hasn't registered the turn and so is trying to keep you straight but the client is trying to turn you to the direction of the bite&attack That's why when you dismount the sarco doesn't turn around and the big ends The client is no longer trying to turn the sarco to the desired direction

[@omegamark6304]

Same problem, any idea to fix it? it's very uncomfortable

[@LowlyEidolon]

@@omegamark6304 it needs a client or server update, which means a bug report needs filling with wildcard so they can understand the issue and how to reproduce it. Solution atm is: do not use bite&turn move on a sarco

[@ashrein]

does the same thing on deinosuchus from ark additions

[@7atmalj]

Does the sarco work fine in single player

[@p5ychotik534]

About the little creatures disappearing, I’ve noticed if I claim a baby and then leave render distance, it’ll slowly start floating up towards the sky and the longer you’re gone the higher it goes until I assume it hits the border. It also takes AGES for it to float back down.

[@FeuerToifel]

the issue is, there is no border up to. at least none that will stop you from going higher. if you go too high, you simply get meshkilled. even in gcm. so the creatures floating up are most likely all dead.

[@billyharp6806]

I had two babies mesh through the ground and fall to their death. Only one gave me a death message.

[@AkselJade]

That explains a lot. I think it happens to sea creatures you knock out tame too. Had a 150 max Mega knocked out and walled in. Came back to it being just gone.

[@GamingwithJael]

Do you think it would help to put them in a pen after claiming them to keep them from ascending 🤔

[@Solarius318]

I haven't had anything float yet, but my small creatures have figured out how to slip thru walls. Even in my buildings, when I come back in render they are out wandering the world.

[@DocPlaysBad]

Ghillie hides the player name from other players if you're wearing the full set. Which is pretty freaking cool.

[@d1nodray]

[@borzoilover4156]

​@@d1nodraythat would be pretty cool for all armors it would be cool if wearing chitin armor gave you built in bug repellent although it would be alot worse then just using bug repellent

7.9, 38.5 Is a magnificent looking base spot, definitely check it out!

[@lucamaddison6831]

I will say if you do end up building in the snow they added a new feature that means structures in the snow will slowly begin to build up snow on their roofs and stuff which might look pretty cool

[@hitavi4965]

There's a valley between the 2 snow mountains that kinda resembles the area Syntac lived in Ultimate Ark, I think that could be a pretty good base location since it's a large, open area with plenty of flat land to build on

[@heykosei]

You know the Cords?

[@griffihn]

@@heykosei it's right between the two mountains, just follow the river north. you even have a frozen waterfall. the issue is that it's a spawn spot for argies, carnos and daedon. so be prepared if you plan on building there.

[@Aftershk]

I kinda love how, almost exactly when Syntac mentioned he wasn't going to do anything to Jim's raft, his Sarco was like, "Maybe YOU won't do anything," and took a massive dump on Jim's raft just before they left. 😂💩

[@samuelburgess9620]

Hey Syntac, base spot in the snow here, ive always loved the ice bridge around 29 9 (Just above where you got the explorer note on the sarco) as it is beautiful, very flat and easy to build on, and only has one entrance and so is easy to protect from wild creatures. (also no therizino spawns) its right beside blue ob and there are tons of resources nearby. If you read this, thanks, if not, thats all good too.

[@alpharaptor2179]

I think the new oil nodes are based on oil shales, which is pretty cool

[@RoundSeal]

I kind of love that Tek creatures aren't in the game yet - it means there's an actual reason to go into the ocean for resource gathering now.

[@Exen88]

I hope they won’t be for these maps. I couldn’t play Ark because of these “tek” were just too ridiculous for me.

[@thermalcashew2858]

​@Exen88 they will come with extinction like cryopods. That's when they we introduced. Fun fact they used to give meat ad hide at the start. Scrap, dust, and electric came later.😊

[@Kehy_ThisNameWasAlreadyTaken]

@@Exen88 I for one liked the pretty colors, but I refused to use tek itself. Good for farming, and I may or may not have used them for locating my base in the dark

[@GeorgeMonet]

Except gathering the resources we got from tek creatures is an excessively massive pain in the ass. Hence why they were added...

[@eliaspanayi3465]

Tek creatures should be gated behind the broodmother imo, make them spawn after the boss is killed

[@mudiedj]

I love how good sarcos are and how easy they are to tame easily one of my favourite dinos

[@Jack_Harky]

you’ve done amazing with this series so far, keep going

[@SupremoMancoSama]

i have to say my favorite dino in this game has to be the oviraptor, now that it can automatically pickup unfert and fert eggs + the extra egg buff. fabricators, industrial forges and chemistry stations don't need gas anymore as long as you have a generator, and you don't need to do wiring anymore which is a life change.

[@burningfry6972]

The Eggstra egg buff

[@bobthedestroyer6205]

The oviraptor just became the cooler version of the S+ hatchery

[@grumpus88]

You can track your tames on the tracker. Click the POI icon at the bottom left of their frame and it will mark them on your screen. I've had kairuku that fall through the floor when I toss them. I've noticed it happens when they grow up on top of a foundation and are half-sunk into it when they grow up. Relogging (or in your case, restarting the server) fixes it. To me it makes sense that Theris are common. They are herbivores so they aren't really initiating fights unless something threatens them, they have plenty of food, and they are definitely as strong as the alpha predators, so there aren't really many threats to them (just thinking IRL reasoning, not in-game reasoning for the overspawning). You shoulda grabbed some Silica Pearls while you were in the Tundra since Tek creatures aren't a thing yet ;p. There is (or was) an issue where penguins weren't spawning on any of the islands. Only on the mainland.

[@full8497]

Just go into where you used to track dinos you were taming and you can add a POI marker on all of your tames. If your missing dodo is still on the map, youll find it that way.

[@Travnorton5]

Alright this night and last night around 23:56-03:48 i was watching a couple of episodes that missed/decided to watch later/forgotten so i had a good amount of videos to watch. I thought i'm not actually doing to do this am i? Apparently yes... surprisingly i actually managed to get some good hours of sleep, which is uncommon at that point of time. Some i'm back on track, i have energy and i'm awake and well rested, how odd. But hey thanks syn! I've really been waiting and been really excited for the next video! I remember thinking that i was crazy for actually doing it and deciding to do it. Already excited for next episode, you bring me so much entertainment, thanks! 👍😊

[@themurrrr]

The snow biome is definitely my favorite, and with the upgrade it looks absolutely gorgeous. My favorite spot for a base has and will always be on top of this rock ledge right in front of you at 32:11 I hate walled-in bases. I prefer an unobstructed view of the scenery. Here you just wall off the beginning of this rock ledge and voila. I would build like a mini village with various buildings along both edges. The view is breathtaking and there are plenty of resources nearby. You can even connect to the water below.

[@themurrrr]

I would paint my base black and call it Castle Black.

[@nickybeingnicky]

Evo was up there yesterday. He found a weird cave thing that dead ended. You'd essentially have 3 indestryctible walls made.

Good to know about the saddle decay. Honestly, I wasn't really worried about it since even a base saddle seems to break EXTREMELY slowly. By the time it actually breaks, you should be able to afford repairing it.

9:19 “They can now pounce you” no, Raptors can’t pounce. The only reason you got pounced by Jim’s raptor is because tamed raptors have the pounce ability, like how tamed megs can bleed

Building tip: You should add some sort of extremities to the sides to make it less boxy, and to make it less bland use stone pillars and either a stone or thatch roof for appearance

I'm a novice ark player, with only 190 hours.

[@pseudogamer8848]

Yea the small tames going through the floor might be the result of loading. Like standard structures load first then the wild and your tames, basically your tames are falling before the game has the chance to render the creatures/tames.

if your ditermined for the snow area the 38.0 lat by 31.2 you have a nice lake type area just outside of snow on the river that could look nice. 19.0 by 16.5 could be another option as its almost right outside the ice cliff cave with an artifact it only has a small amount of flattish land but i have seen a red drop in that peninsular recently. at around 58.0 Lat by 64.5 Lon near the green ob, there is a nice and flat area in the forest cliff area overlooking the swamp. you would have to clear a good amount of trees for a good size base, but it's fairly close to redwoods mountain for metal and stone plenty of trees for wood obviosly.

[@RoninMrtyr]

Hey Syntac - FYI you don't have to have the water pump inside the intake bubble. The bubble for the tower just has to overlap with the intake's to become irrigated SO you could place it in say the attic along with the Generator for cleaner looking builds. It's a lot like the Venn diagrams. Hope this helps with the irrigation around the base and in your greenhouse. If you make a line from the water to the main building then cluster other towers off your main house you won't need much and can incorporate the water towers into the other buildings.

@jessicaculp3829 I hated the electrical storms on Scorched Earth, they damaged all your generators so you had to continually fix all your turret towers. The heat waves were terrible too, you basically couldn't play until they passed. Tornados would be terrible lol. Imagine you're just breeding some dinos and a Tornado randomly wipes your base. It was the same trying to build in the space biome in gen1, you didn't know you built in the wrong spot until a meteor shower came and wiped everything and killed all your tames. I'm down for advanced weather but not if it damages structures. That just adds unnecessary grinding to fix/rebuild from an RNG wipe.
