"try 100 hours of gameplay, probably more" As someone with 2,500 hours in game, it's worth every cent. Though out of preference, I've stuck to the year passes and larger truck DLCs.
That's impressive, I'm not sure how many hours I've played but it's nowhere near that. Yet.
"I survived Amur" is a good phrase for a t-shirt or something like. And yes, I survived Amur. That region makes me have nightmares. By far is the region that I spend more hours playing, raging, crying, sweating and almost bleeding. But (again): "I survived Amur". Kola Peninsula is also a pain.
To make decision easy (IMO): Year 1 if you like challenges. Year 2 if you want something more relaxing. Besides relaxing in Snowrunner is not exactly... relax.
It's a great slogan, and definitely relatable. Going back into NAE to film brought back nightmares and cold sweats.
you know Snowrunner is a weird game (as a compliment) in the fact that it's relatively a slow paced games almost by need, because going above 50km/h is practically a death sentence, but you're constantly engaged, either with knowing when to activate diffs and AWD, or checking your fuel and thus trying to drive efficiently, or trying to make sure your truck doesn't flip over or what have you, but it's also not in a stressful way. You're not so relaxed you could fall asleep but you're not stressed enough so as to get legitimately angry (as long as you don't flip your truck).
Merry Christmas! If old Santa gave you money or SnowRunner, maybe you'll want some DLC action. Here's my look at both year passes. As is tradition for this time of year, I'll be giving hearts to all comments. Subtitles incoming when I'm back at my PC.
Merry Christmas 🎄 to you too ⛄
Merry Christmas Tribe! Thanks for a bother video.
Are you excited to see what season 3 has in store for us?
@@englishdragon4198 I'm excited yeah, a short news video with some new details soon. Stay tuned!
I wish we could get true coop with a shared garage
Merry Christmas, and thanks for your good Snowrunner videos!
To be honest all of them are worth every penny.
Cant wait for year 3 and hopefully more year continue support by the devs.😇
You get so much content for the money, you're right.
@@ATribeCalledCars facts 😇
I got the year 1 pass. I think that Amur is a game changer, it has insane conditions and objectives that really test your limits... Even with mods I couldn't get 2 bridges operational in 4 hours. Could be a skill issue. Now Wisconsin is also nice, beautiful as always. I generally recommend it. Just because 2 of the Year 2 seasons don't really appeal to me. The one is pretty much racing and the other is farming.
This is an awesome truck, thanks for the tutorial and tips mate.👍🤙🎮🕹
Thanks Ben. Great content as allways
Thanks, Vicke. Hope you had a good day.
Loved the video it helped me so much im gonna support you from epic because im gonna buy the snowrunner thanks a lot man
Thank you very much, glad it helped. Will do a Year 3 Pass update when it's all been released.
great vids, subscribed! :)
Imandra and Amur killed my enjoyment of the game after 100% completing the 3 base game regions, so I shelved the game for a good few months. I bought the Year 2 pass on sale there in November and I spent another 100 hours in the game, so I gotta say the Year 2 maps were a lot more fun for me, especially that season 6 one where you have to open up the garage and all its bits and pieces. Oddly enough I found myself using a lot of the base game trucks in Year 2, like Voron Grad and some of the very first offroad trucks from Michigan
Amur is AMAZING if you approach it right, Northern Installation not included. It is, however, a kick in the junk so I understand the dislike. Imandra can die in a fire and leave the F750 with me.
Thanks Ben!! Merry Xmas my friend!
Hope you had a good day!
A fine evening spent playing Snowrunner and then watching videos of it by the mighty doner kebab guy! Can it go even better?
Mighty doner kebab guy is a great name. Thank you for watching!
Happy Christmas Ben, all the best for the new year 👍
Same you to, Al. Hope you have a good one!
My favorite DLC we’ve had is the Don Region I may be the only one to say but it came at a bright time in my life when I really wasn’t playing video games I was working on myself and I spent the thanksgiving break reaping the benefits of a dopeamine detox in trucking heaven. Maine and Wisconsin are great, I didn’t ever wrap my head around the routes in the second map in Maine and got bored of trying to, Wisconsin I finished and enjoyed, Imandra was my first DLC I played through and the Plane mission was memorable even two years later, only season I didn’t really care for was Tennessee, it was a huge disappointment as someone from north Alabama, I figured it’d be delivering material in the smoky mountains with a gatlinburg themed town but what we got was just a waste of potential.
Always interesting to see how people relate playing SnowRunner to real life. Hopefully the brightness continues.
Do not worry my favourite so far is DON because I loved the tasks and rebuilding the factory...
The tatras are amazing as well.
But Kola and Yukon take the cake for me, amazing music and insanely cool views.
Snowrunner is by far the best game I have ever purchased for $20 , while I do have all the map packs , and almost all the vehicle packs [except Land Rover] - I play other games as well but always come back to Snowrunner, I am currently on my 2nd go through on the game
Same, it's a nice game to play on and off.
I've clocked nearly 700 hours in this game. 100% everything except coop tasks, which is infuriating!
I remember being told the co-op completion thing wasn't an issue. I guess you could find some people on the official Discord to run them with.
Same here
@@albertog.5433 I'm willing to help if you are
how to do the coop tasks alone? i'm pretty bad with people and would really prefer to play alone.
@@Bergwacht There are 3 tasks that must be done twice, one time solo and a second time in coop. You must do the solo and coop version of each task to get 100% completion.
Happy Jesus birthday day. - Set a great present to watch one of your snow runner videos today
Hopefully you had a lovely day. Thank you for watching.
Great video, per usual. Hope you have a happy Christmas and merry Boxing Day (unfortunately none o’ that here in the Colonies 🇺🇸).
Spoiler:
Both are worth it!
Thank you, enjoy the holidays!
Ze Cat is back!
I've started Amur with my friend. And it's a pain. Lake Kovd was a walk in a park. We've completed many regions, but Amur is a whole another level.
Amur really is the biggest challenge. I'd like another map pack that's as tough. Maybe tougher...
Btw the picture you gave for the International HX 520 was of the International Paystar 5070 I think. Not that it really matters though. Great comparison video :D
That could be, it was in a generic folder. I shall repent my sins!
Merry Christmas Ben!
Hope you had a good one!
WoW , epic video ! 🙂
Cheers, Tommy.
Just bought Y2P with your code!
I bought year 2 on my birthday I love the tractors and tatras and the tayga b
Atcc video for Christmas
I hope Santa brought more than coal.
I love that most of your videos are targeted at new comers!
Thanks, I try to have a mix of content.
Got both just to get all the maps. IMHO if you can do Imandra you can do anything haha. Year 1 also has arguably the most important upgrades to existing trucks, the active suspension upgrades for the Kolobs and 73210 and the AWD for the 6900TS. I'm holding off on the year 3 pass until the first maps for it are released.
True, Imandra is really good practice for Amur. And I glossed over the upgrade stuff but you're right. Fingers crossed for a good Year 3...
I just have to do the star in the sky contract for Imandra and while the difficult trucking is still fresh, I am gonna go to Amur and get the zikz and then do all the regions prior to Amur and use it for the season 2 maps
@@sugarflame1833 Protip for Star in the Sky. Use the 73210 with big crane, and just drive to the drop off point with the plane part hanging off your crane. The plane parts are nearly impossible to get out of the lake area on the flatbed trailer. when hanging off the crane they don't hang up on every tree
@@mrvwbug4423 Thanks! I appreciate the tip :)
Cheers!
You're welcome! Xx
its also worth mentioning that every season of season 1 brings new contracts to vanilla maps. logging being the biggest addition, logging contracts in every vanilla map alone took me tens of hours to complete.i dont think these exist if you dont own the 3rd DLC.
I was wondering this, the issue is that I own it all on all the platforms I use. Good point!
Logging contracts on Michigan, Alaska and Taymyr come with the base game now, no DLC required.
@@mrvwbug4423 oh ok, i stand corrected. ive had season pass from the beginning so was under the impression they were part of DLC
Logging is a nightmare. I need to do like 9 individual runs between zones between long log and medium log runs.
@@Zynet_Eseled it definitely can get grindy... its easier now at least because there is a medium log add on so with that and trailer u can have 2 medium logs at the same time. this used not to exist... only trailer. and theres contracts with 6 medium logs. one by one. that was pain :D
and Merry Christmas!
Have a good one!
Great video. I going to buy both expansions on Xbox.
Hope you enjoy both!
@@ATribeCalledCars Thank you. I am from the Czech Republic so I really need that Tatra pack. Tatra is a Czechoslovakian brand and one of the oldest car/truck manufacturers in the world.
Hiya! Great video as Always. What is the truck at the beginning? Thanks 😉
Hey. The one with the van addon? That's the Kirovets K-7M from Season 8: Grand Harvest.
I recently bought the game on my Xbox and plan on buying all three year passes as soon as I'm done with the base game.
Try to 100% each region first before moving on. Thats how i played on my ps4😇
Had to give a like just for the paper factory joke. 🤣 Well not just that but you know.
The worst jokes are the best lol.
Good thing those were an offer in microsoft store before Christmas, so I could get both of them
A wise decision.
@@ATribeCalledCars
Yeah, also scouting with the apache through this maps is fun, i liked it more than i expected. Merry Christmas and have a happy new year when it comes...
I started Snowrunner about a year ago and I’m almost done the hole game. I’m probably going to buy the year one pass since I really want to try Immandra.
Hell awaits you
@@Zynet_Eseled Bring it on!
Trust me. It took me hundreds of attempts just to get all the materials I needed to open the tunnel. And I had to brute force the 745 to try and worm it's way through the ungodly ice.
@@Zynet_Eseled Looking forward to it! Love a hard challenge!
@@Simulate1NinetyNine this isnt a challenge. It's a form of torture. The snow makes scouts literally useless, the CAT 745 is basically nothing, chain tires make you unable to navigate snow, so you are forced to drive up ICE, IN MUD TIRES.
Great video. Im curious.. what resolution is This captured in.. it looks amazing
4K 60FPS, I always try to film every game at this resolution and then output with high quality settings. The odd stutter is sadly usually because of playing 4K and capturing 4K at the same time. I would assume at AM5 processor level I could have complete recording smoothness! But as I play it's all locked to 60FPS at maxed out settings 99.9% of the time. Pretty cool!
Spent around 30 hours in the base game and i thoroughly enjoy the vehicle rescue missions and the "cargo rescue" missions
(when there's cargo out in the world you need to collect with a crane and then deliver).
The other missions are fine but they get a bit dull after a while with the exeption to building the bridges maybe.
I noticed the dlc's are on sale so i was wondering if any of the dlc maps have more vehicle/cargo rescue missions
than others or if it's generally an equal amount of diversity all across the board?
Base game + 3 dlc took me less than 8 months to compete.
Amur alone took me 1 year.
Just to put into context how hard amur is which make it a little boring too, but yeah you can say i survived amur.
Amur isn't *too* hard, and I'd say Northern Aegis is actually quite easy, by virtue of there being hardly any jobs there and the roads aren't all sabotaged. The key to success both heavily relying upon the overpowered Ziks and spending as little time in Urska River as possible; Because about 70% of the region's difficulty is condensed in that god-awful map. Which you start in. Sourcing as much as you can from Chernokamensk and cosmodrone may seem long winded but not having to spend hours mounting multiple rescue operations will be faster.
That and abuse the fact that towed trucks can still have their engine running and contributing. There's few things the Ziks can't solve, having it towing a truck with a crane (or a second Ziks) and snow chains covers those few bases. It does get incredibly boring being stuck using that truck for everything though since few vanilla trucks can cut it out in Amur. The big Cats and Tractors can do it, albeit with even less utility.
Oh and abandon any delusions of using scouts in Amur. Scout trails are a myth. You're better trying to wedge and tow your Ziks up that rockface than actually using a scout as there is always four foot deep snow right after.
Amur have too many rocks for the Tatrain? I would also imagine the Kolobs with their active suspension upgrade installed would probably do ok in Amur, unless the routes are too tight for saddle high trailers. The getting pushed by winched truck is very handy for getting through the deep swamps in Yukon, though the Kolobs are pretty useful in Yukon once you learn the routes that are giant truck friendly.
It's more the sheer depth of mud and snow in Amur that makes scouts mostly ineffective. Really not worth bothering. Zikz or other top tier tricks for the win.
The Tatarin's biggest handicap beyond a lack of snorkel and trailers is it has no ice tires meaning it cannot climb up icy rocks.
The few times that you do literally have to use a scout because of trailers or the pass being too narrow you're best served with something like the Yar. Use your Ziks/other big truck to tow it there on flatbed or trailer then let it struggle the last leg. Like with the bigger trucks going in tandem (aka tow 2 scouts and then take them both up) can help.
As for the Kolob and it's active suspension it's alright but Kolob has far less utility than the Ziks which can do everything it can and oft better.
Getting beached on rocks is something no truck is immune to so the tandem strat helps there a lot as you can push/pull trucks off them.
I have a Dream, One Day the Mercedes Unimog will be a part of this Game.
And de G-Wagon as a scout. Maybe the 6x6 AMG ?
ohhh maann, it will never happen...😭
Never say never!
See, I LIKE year 2 more, but year 1 is better with the base game. Year 1 feels like it adds on to the end of the vase game and concudes with crazy challenges. Year 2 is just different
Hmmm, I have all the DLC, I'm still waiting for those raps on vinyl though.
As somebody who just bought the game and both passes, I've no regrests as such. I wish I'd played more of the base game first and bought the passes separately. There is alot of content to get your head around otherwise. I've wasted a fair bit of early cash on inappropriate trucks, and spent too much time on harder regions with them as a result. The base game is worth spending time on before buying passes or dlc.
Quick question. I got the base game and on the third map of first region, is it worth buying all the seasons now?
Or just finish the base game first?
The base game keeping me occupied already.
I will get the season 1, 2, 4 qnd 10 soon. I find them cool
Good choices!
@@ATribeCalledCars thanks :)
@@ATribeCalledCars i have 9bucks left. Any standalone dlc trucks you recommend? Thinking bout the mastodon or another season dlc
@@boiledtea479 Well Humble Bundle has a fair few racing games and add-ons at $13, could be worth a look! Failing that, the Mastodon is pretty good and useful. Tatra Pack can be interesting too. I'd avoid the scout stuff as they are generally less useful.
@@ATribeCalledCars ive decided on the season 1, 2, 4, 6 and 10. Thanks for your advice! :)
I’m quite new to the game so I’m miles behind! I’ve bought the season 3 pass but still have a lot of stuff/content with a padlock, have I made a mistake buying this? Just trying to unlock some stuff from the latest levels, can anyone clear up what’s included in this pass??
Thanks in advance
Santa guided me to your Video 30 seconds after the Update and im 3 hours into my first campaign of snowrunner and thats a cristmas miracle although im Not christian at all.. so here is my question: do you know if there are any plans on adding cutting down trees with a harvester or something like that ? Thanks for the sum up it's quite interesting for now:D
If you’re just getting started… then that’s an understatement. Wait till you get more in. It’ll be a pain. Even if you know how to “play” the game lol
You have quite the SnowRunner journey ahead of you as already said, enjoy! Unfortunately we do not know much about the next phase. But I doubt we will wait long and I'll make a video about it.
Year 1 pass all the way. I need more Amur.
I would love to see something as tough as Amur again but I'm not sure we will.
COVID made my play this game. Enjoyed it a lot. Like the pace, but now its too lonely LOL! I need more IAs in this game to live it up. Also miss looking around with eye tracking. Multi-player is a bit lame, cause of the way progress works. Choose maps over trucks? There are free Mods for trucks...
I would like a little more map life too, even if it was more nature. And I agree about eye tracking and maps over trucks!
@@ATribeCalledCars Some animals maybe. Can’t be hard, much life in games like Ghost Recon Wildlands. Cars on the road.
What's the difference if I purchase the various DLC's vs a season pass. Does a season two pass include the older season one dlc's and the new one's. Which I assume if it does, makes a season pass cheaper. One less one has already purchase the dlc's.
Season 2 includes 5-8 so you don't get 1-4. But buying 5-8 separately is usually more expensive than the season pass.
well i buy the standerd edition
9:00 new addons for zikz or mod ?
The racing dlc was my favourite from year 2 but year 1 is way better
Interesting, a few people say it was great but mostly not. I think it was good for variety!
@@ATribeCalledCars I liked how simple it was compared to the other maps
@@pitzu3695 "I like getting less bang for my buck".
I play this game since it was named "Spintires". So i bought both DLC's...
Been here since before me! Hope you're still enjoying.
For me: Year-1 offers better maps, while Year-2 offers better vehicles.
Yeah I can understand that except for the Zikz, but then it is more limited when it comes to addons.
New video about the phase 9 sneak peeks?👀
Coming soon. Once I've digested the Christmas turkey.
i have all 3 year passes and dlc
You're ahead of me, I haven't bought the Year 3 Pass yet. But I suspect I will have too fairly soonish...
I can’t believe they thought Tennessee was ok to ship out.
It really was not the best value, that's for sure.
Did you know that this dlc was being created when studio employees moved from St. Petersburg to the west as a result of the war? They were made by only a few people who didn't leave at the time.
@@Durzy007 I made a video about this, yeah.
@@ATribeCalledCars in that case I know it from your video :) Forgive me, I didn't remember that you did it. Lately I've been living the fact that by the termination of cooperation with Saber Interactive, CDProjekt Red released an unfinished nextgen patch.
Can anyone tell me why some trucks like the tatra 805 are locked in the shop for me? It's a red padlock. I have bought every pack and DLC. Also tried uninstalling add ons and re installing. Still locked
Weird, my first suggestion was to uninstall and reinstall addons and make sure the Year Passes are also installed (depending on platform). Which platform are you on?
@@ATribeCalledCars xbox 1, I did that and it seems to work now thank you
I think they should finish this game and start developing a new Snowrunner game with next generation physics.
I'd be keen for another game, but maybe the Year 3 Pass will keep us sufficiently busy while we wait.
Is there any more revealed for season 3?
Yes, some sneaky bits and bobs. Coming soon!
I found it funny when he said "at least 100 hours of gameplay", purely because I've clocked in about 650 hours.
Oh yeah, very conservative! I've done a lot more...
Jesus.
I guess it makes sense though given the fact you have a UA-cam channel about the game
@@JohnFordGaming I haven't added up the total, possibly on purpose...
As they say ignorance is bliss,
how is season 8?
I read it's the best map in year 2
Tied between Season 8 and 9, although I find the hilly challenge of the latter refreshing and there is more big cargo. Season 9 review coming soon, 8 is already on the channel!
what truck is at 6:19? is that a modded truck?
It's the Kirovets K-7M from Season 8: Grand Harvest. I tried to avoid mod trucks for this video to show what you get in each season.
@@ATribeCalledCars how do you get those tires on it? when I looked it only had one set
@@AWRussell The upgrade can be found in one of the Season 8 maps.
I brought the year 1 pass and the high roller pack is there ):|
Ah yes, the International hx 520 which turned into an International paystar lol
Season 1 was so much better than season 2. Not that season 2 was all that bad, just not much content compared to season 1. Plus season 1 offers better trucks IMO.
I agree, especially the Zikz and 5600TS.
fun fact:
people like to read fun facts.
You're not wrong.
Meanwhile me playing mudrunner to 100%
I should really play it, bought it a while ago...
We need 2 vs 3
It's being worked on :)
@@ATribeCalledCars thanks a lot man, btw, you should do audiobooks or something
@@armandoguerra7658 Would people really want to hear me read a book?
@@ATribeCalledCars I certainly would, you have tone and a dry humor that makes me enjoy listening to you quite a lot
First comment
Thank you for watching!
Year 1 was good. Year 2 was a waste of money ! Not going to bother with year 3.
and i tought imandra was hard
Amur is definitely the worst, but Imandra can be a nightmare too. Especially as it is earlier in the game.

Definetely, 1st year is far more better, cause after 5 mln. copies sold mr. Sorokin became lazybone and his team had a lot of money without any responsobility for content, bugs and schedule.
P.S. Still they have 9 mln. copies sold and can't give adequate schedule for 3 year pass.
It's common for companies to shortcut but I think these were unprecedented times too. Year 3 stuff will come soon, it's just probably more profitable to release early but also it's nice there is a level of surprise.
I hate first-year maps. They are tiring and stupid. The level of difficulty is gained by having to take some route a million times, carrying the same load. There are trees lying along the route, which partially yield and partially do not. Trees that you would actually remove, which, with such vehicles at your disposal, would be child's play. The terrain is unnatural, staircases made of rocks, icy mountain roads, feeds that cannot be moved.... If you start to think about it, it gets so silly that it makes you unwilling to play.
Year one has better and more useful vehicles, year two has better thought out, more realistic maps where it makes sense to use vehicles that earlier only worked well in Main.
I just wish I was good at this game. I love it but I’m stuck 🫠have been for months
What are you stuck on? Maybe I can help.
@@ATribeCalledCars thanks for taking the time to reply to my comment. It’s the 3rd map and russia I think. I play without the dlc just the free one. I have logs to transport from the snow map to the mud map.. constantly getting stuck plus no fuel.. the worst part is getting fully stuck and not being able to do anything 😅I’ve given up now and just watch snow runner gameplay
@@spookyreaper1702 You should aim for off-road or mud tyres and get the Tayga 6436 from Russia. It will help if you're struggling!
A TRIBE CALLED FLIPS ALOT!
Santa did give me money! Now comes the year 3 pass!! Yay…..potatoes 🫠
Awesome, Year 3 Pass news coming soon...
Look fwd to see how and where my trucking dreams go to die! Or be harvested idk lol
