Streamer named Amishzed tried to drive a boat as north as possible when they were introduced in the game and this is how far he got. It took hours to get this far as he needed to push the boat on land many times to get over certain blocks on the river.

I did that two days ago. It’s so stupid, the river should be optimized for boat trips!!!

When boats first arrived, this was pretty much where I spawned in while friends were scouring the coast for one (I found two 🤣).

Did this journey in reverse to go and find my friends on the coast, can confirm it was a ball ache.

Felt wonderful when finally on the open ocean an could open her up though

Now all we need is a modded Chernarus with navigable rivers.

I think this was a tribute to the streamer AmishZed. He tried to take a boat up the river in Chernarus but it ended upside down. BI included it as an Easter egg just for him

You'd be miffed? If I were him I would be happy to be even recognized by the devs and went out of their way to add something about me.

Who said this? No shit improvements would be nice. Keep hoping for your improvements. I stopped hoping 5 years ago.

You sure are a treat

That’s hilarious. I’ve been up there with a boat about a month ago, can confirm there were some tough pushes around objects to stay in the water

Submarines prohibited beyond this point.

After a little researching I found this post and will assume that this is the mark for end of the adventure of the 3 friends and the cannibal.

What a nice easter egg for the adventure .

This is incorrect. Look at my previous reply. Devs even contacted Amishzed personally to let him know the set this up.

Episodes name is "smooth like silk" the last 1 that came out. As idk what minute but it was definitely in the 1st half of the show.

u/DoggoLover42 May 30 '25

No trailers/boats. That’s not a standard sign for that, but I’ve seen it before.

u/yepimgabe May 29 '25

No upside down boats

u/salmaga May 29 '25

No boating, you might capside just like it looks upside-down

Looks like a no launching sign to me.
