When it goes WRONG call in the GMC | SnowRunner Kola Peninsula

[@sparegoblin]

That's one sketchy crossing, to accompany the sketchy pole! And yes it is now forever stuck in mind as the sketchy pole 😂

[@zorshix]

Haha I knew it would be! 😁

[@theoriginalzinng]

The jams are on point. Another kick-ass episode repping the old trucks that commonly get forgotten! Love it bud! 😎👍

[@zorshix]

Dude your Satisfactory Tips video was great too, and I thought the intro was just right. Appreciate it @theoriginalzinng ✌️

[@charlesvasut2711]

As always, thank you for another entertaining, and informative, video. I am on a temporary break in Yukon, but I am using the GMC there. Likely not the best truck, but it has managed a handful of tasks.

[@zorshix]

It has its limitations in the later maps but is definitely a capable truck in the realm of early game trucks. It's kind of too bad they waited so long to give the AWD upgrade because with it the GMC is a dominator in Michigan and Alaska. See you in Yukon soon, getting closer.

[@CarrotDoesTheCrazy-YT]

Hello Zor I’m relatively new to your channel and I am enjoying the content. I play Snowrunner too but with mods. Your kola penensula play through is helping me understand the difficult terrain. Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@zorshix]

@CarrotDoesTheCrazy-YT Welcome aboard! So glad you're enjoying it. Mods are a lot of fun, and I'm not against them, I'm just not using them for this series. Kola Peninsula is a steep learning curve of terrain navigation compared to the base game and I'm happy I can help in some way. Appreciate your feedback and look forward to hearing from you again. 🙂

[@CarrotDoesTheCrazy-YT]

@@zorshix Thanks for your reply. Do you have any tips for Kola because I want to use a mix between mods and base game trucks. What are the best scouts and cargo haulers?

[@zorshix]

@CarrotDoesTheCrazy-YT Tips for vanilla vehicles - the Tatarin will pretty much do everything for exploration without issue but the YAR87 does well for other scout tasks. For hauling - I like to use the smaller trucks like the Step310 because they fit in the tight areas and between trees better than big ones, but some of the jobs in Imandra require a bigger truck. In those cases the Azov 64131 does well because it's a stable and fuel efficient 8x8. Also the Voron D is a good choice if you don't want to use the Tayga.

[@fvdeddrift]

I have a game save that is straight up mod madness! Sometimes when I get absolutely stuck or confused trying to get somewhere... I roll around in that P12 Orca II truck, and never(well......hahaha!) tip over, and never get stuck... Lol! And you can't race around in Wisconsin without an absolute hot rod of an over powered vehicle! His videos drastically cut the learning curve for folks that are new to the game, and can help increase enjoyment by cutting down the number of redundant trips and showing us where to stage different trailers and vehicles to assist in that region streamlining! All together a good time on this channel!

[@zorshix]

@rvdeddrift Duuuuuude, I know the P12 Orca you're talking about! That thing is the most monstrous of monsters and goes through everything with ease. It's a fun ride for sure. I also used to use the F-750 that has a low saddle for hauling semi-trailers and huge tires. That too was a fun mod truck. Most of my first playthrough was with a Tayga mod that had three drive axles. It was unstoppable.

[@fvdeddrift]

My son and his friend say the rocks in Kola "have CLAWS" Lol! I've never taken more damage from an icy pebble than in Imandra! Hahahaha! This is a sweet episode! I've been up to drop containers trying to go around on the west side, only to have a "Dude, WTF?!?!" moment when you realize you can't actually drop anything off! HA! Primo tip there! Overall great work, as usual! Killer tips and route planning! Thanks for takin us along! And the music was also really good. It always is, but this episode definitely stood out! Sweet action!🍬🏃 🤘

[@zorshix]

@rvdeddrift That landslide got me in hard mode when I took the Twinsteer around the west side and couldn't drop it off. I had to drive that big beast around the trees on the rock cliff to the left of it and get to the other side to complete. What a nightmare! 😂 I'm trying out some new music that is more of a reflection of who I am. It's always difficult to find with copyright limitations but I'm testing a new music service (on trial period) and trying to decide if I should go all-in on the subscription. I've pretty much gone through everything I could find with KZbin's free audio tracks, and there's only so many times I can keep repeating the in-game music across episodes, so hopefully this service pans out and is worth it. Appreciate your feedback, it helps a lot man! ✌️

[@fvdeddrift]

@@zorshix I've been gaining a lot of ground on my Hard Mode save, and this is exactly the thing I was referencing! Like you, I was super bummed! Lol! You have really good visuals, especially yer intro, and the audio is always on point , but I do like to mention when it piques my interest, or stands out! I have used a ton of GhostHack for edits I have done for folks down at the skatepark I work near, and for some fishing lodge promo videos we used to make for clients during their stays. But finding that right style, that suits you as a person is important. It helps the audience kinda "know" where you come from, so to speak. Music is a powerful tool, and you use it incredibly well!

[@zorshix]

I haven't heard of GhostHack but now I have more resources to look into. Thanks for that. Music is a huge passion of mine, and I want to let people in, to know who I am.

Keep on Trucking 🚚🚛🚙🛻

[@cmgtbone]

The AWD upgrade for the GMC and Twinsteer help both trucks so much.

[@zorshix]

@cmgtbone they really do make them into completely different trucks, especially the GMC. It would be nice to have the AWD in Michigan as it would completely change the gameplay for me, at least in Black River.

[@cmgtbone]

@@zorshix I made a new + game where all upgrades were available from the start to do that. I use it for multi-player as I don't have all the DLC maps yet.

[@zorshix]

@cmgtbone that's a good approach

[@edispaghetti7263]

That ice road slippery slide is always causing trouble. Really pays off to have a chained truck around. Looking forward to the price of victory done by a true professional and looking even more forward to Yukon. Think you'll bring out the superheavy 8 slot trailer there? I've heard it works quite well there.

[@zorshix]

Yeah the 8 slot becomes my primary trailer in Yukon. It's nice and wide open there so it works well.

[@Hunt3rr4455]

I somehow managed to flip my P16 three times in the span of 10 minutes and luckily recovered every time by using a tree as a lever while winching with the CK1500. Truly the most unnecessary trouble I've went through so far just because I'm not watching the terrain lol.

[@zorshix]

@Hunt3rr4455 it takes a lot to rescue the P16 and the fact you did it with the Chevy is outright amazing. I've tried the same thing with a tree in Drummond Island and could not get it over so definitely impressive. Now watch the road! ✌️🙂

[@Hunt3rr4455]

@@zorshix Haha it was quite the headache. I followed your hard mode start guide and it helped me a lot thanks. I need some help. I'm past your Hard Mode guide and I'm currently doing missions between Black River and Smithville Dam. So far I have 45k saved up. I'm wondering what truck I should buy first? I was thinking something like the Azov 64131 but I'm undecided. I do understand I can get more trucks by exploring but is there any worth buying in the store? I could also go to Tamyr and get the Tayga early lol. Or should I just play it out with the free vehicles? Your advice would be much appreciated.

[@zorshix]

@Hunt3rr4455 I usually play it out with the free trucks to keep a nest egg in the bank account until I get to around $200k. Having said that if you're looking to buy a truck to help ease the pain, the International Paystar 5070 is a great choice for the early game. It's in the offroad class, can equip mudtires, and comes standard with the top engine so you won't need any upgrades to effectively use it right away. The Azov is a great truck but it's expensive in the early game, and you won't have the top engine until finding it in Taymyr. It's really up to you as there are many different ways to play, this is just my opinion.

[@liddynicole]

I really miss your content. It’s been almost a month since you posted episode 13. I’ve been working through my notifications and I have not seen episode 14. Please come back soon.

[@zorshix]

Soon, been really busy.

[@liddynicole]

I’m surprised how far you got I think my hardest part is rebuilding the garages like the others. I think those are really hard for me. I think you can do it.

[@zorshix]

@liddynicole The garage is difficult to open I agree, but you can do it. Don't give up! You will have a great sense of accomplishment when you do. You got this! 👍

[@liddynicole]

@@zorshix thank you very much. I think after I’m done watching this. I’m gonna go try again. I believe in myself I could do this.

[@zorshix]

@liddynicole That's the right attitude to have 🙂

[@liddynicole]

@@zorshix good news. I completed the first stage to open the garage and I’m gonna do the rest today so I’m gonna have the garage open today.

[@zorshix]

!!!!!!!!!! I knew you could do it 👍💯

[@mvettr793]

One question. Do you plan to also use trucks that you cant get for free (while discovering maps or doing missions) and must be bought in shop, such as Azov trucks for example?

[@zorshix]

Great question. I originally wanted to see how far I could go before needing to purchase a truck, and while I don't feel I would have to at this point, I've been thinking about picking a couple up for Yukon.

[@mvettr793]

@@zorshix Uf never thought of trying this, but i think it would be possible to complete all maps without purchasing a truck but who am I to judge. Only got back to playing the game because of your tutorials cuz they make game a lot less boring.

[@zorshix]

@mvettr793 yeah I don't think I would need to buy anything to keep going, but my bank account just keeps going up and I'm not doing anything with it. I figured this would bring in a new dynamic to the series. Glad you're enjoying the series, that's what I hope for. 🙂

[@zorshix]

@mvettr793 I got use to playing with the free trucks when I started playing hard mode. It makes everything go a lot smoother when you have money in the bank.

[@mvettr793]

@@zorshix I am totally up for it. Alongside helping ease the gamplay it also adds variety to it. Cant wait to se them in Yukon as it will be a new map for me because i only ever completed 3 base regions.

Plz remove the music

[@zorshix]

May I ask why?

[@scottmclagan4276]

@@zorshix Personally, I'm a total fan of your choice of music. These long-ish vids really benefit from some musical filler. Your choice of non-invasive, down-tempo, with the occasional quasi-classical, is spot on IMO. Thanks.

[@zorshix]

@scottmclagan4276 I appreciate hearing that. I try to mix it up a bit too so it's not all the same thing.
