Trucking Simulator Games Discussion

Haha.  I still find it strange Antwerp was not included for Belgium, or Bruges for that matter.  I know they are super limited for space at their scale... but maybe if they redo the country they can include more cities that European's like to make fun of.

There weren't any deliveries available!  What am I supposed to do?  lol.  I kept refreshing.

What trailer did you take?
Owned curtainsiders and dryvans have bigger choice of available cargoes than company trailers from the base .

That was a long time ago when they made that stuff too, so they just kind of did whatever they wanted.  They didn't know the game would literally become the second coming of Michael Jackson. There are many cities that have been left out that should be included. I am not the best when it comes to geography of that part of Europe, but I know all of eastern Netherlands is nonexistent in the game too.

It wasn't my own personal trailer.  I left my personal trailer up in Estonia somewhere, lol.  I will get it eventually.  I don't remember exactly what I delivered though.

No wonder there were not a big amount of deliveries .

I just thought of something they could do to draw some excitement and it would be unexpected. 

A new route to Inverness in Scotland.  It would show what they could do for beauty in what is one of the oldest parts of the map.  It would stand out like a sore thumb to have this beautifully detailed map in an old generic area, but it could draw excitement that one day in 30 years, they will finally redo the UK.

I'm too lazy to carry my trailer around most of the time.  All the extra steps.

Sounds like a pipe dream.  Stop dreaming!

You don’t have to . Select your trailer in the manager, then teleport to city you need — voilà, the trailer is attached without a need to visit your garage.
Since teleporting was added to the game, I always use it when I need to open some grey road at the opposite part of the map or take the expensive cargo.

So I'm weirdly anal about doing that.  I feel like I have to drive to a location and I don't like teleporting.  I keep a excel sheet log of my drives and I would go insane if I saw one that said I went from delivering goods in Spain and somehow ended up in say... Turkey or something, lol. 

My excel sheets is also very stupid, because when I started, I never kept track of what I delivered, lol.  Just from where to where I went.  Maybe I should just ditch my excel sheet.  lol.

Let me have this!  Let me have this moment!

The only times I teleport is if I have a new truck and I placed it in some random garage.  Otherwise if I say I am going to get to Lithuania, I am going to gosh darn drive to Lithuania.  And I am not going to buy a garage and put a new truck there.

They've made it even easier with the new quick transit option.  I am so happy they included that option. but I'm not gonna use it.

I feel like I have to drive to a location and I don't like teleporting.

Usually when I am exploring the new part of the map, I can also drive short runs from one city to another, but I often see deliveries like that:

So I can’t refuse, besides, this long delivery also was made on the grey roads for a most part of its length.

From within ETS2, I've tried to transport from Dresden to Los Angeles.  It never seems to work.

That's my problem too. How can you refuse such good runs like this?  Imagine if trucking was this lucrative in real life.  I'd quit my day job and become a trucker!
