Will it be the first terabyte-sized game?

[MasterXtreme]

^ Haha. No idea.  I mean the name World of Trucks and how SCS continues to trademark it, makes me think if they had the man-power, they would absolutely do everything they could.  Probably starting with Japan of something. 

But right now the focus is Europe and North America.

Arkansas Special Transport routes

(SCS Xwitter post with video)

Hmm... Usually the post with announcement of the Special Transport routes is one of the last before the announcement of the related state release, but I think it’s not this case . Of course, I am glad to be wrong.
Also, the beta testers say the beta for 1.51 has improved dynamic shadows inside the cab, but since it was not announced, maybe it is intended to be added with the next versions (like ABS or adaptive cruise control, which were tested months before the official introduction).

There are two blog updates left for Arkansas.  Depending on SCS they can come in a few weeks or suddenly both in one week.

They are "New Cargo" and "Industry Brands."

BIG cargo transports are way too easy in these flat, open states.  We need more tight roads in the mountainous west with more cargo hauls.

We are getting real close.

The Mack Pinnacle is now the featured truck for Arkansas.  It is on the Arkansas mini-site at American Truck Simulator website.  So that let's us know the Mack Pinnacle will come sometime between now and September with the release of Arkansas.

Missouri is also going to be released in 2024.

Greece is either late 2024 or early 2025.  I am leaning more towards 2025.

It's going to be a busy fall and winter for us truckers.  I am excited.

Did no one notice the truck we are in is a MACK PINNACLE in this video?

^It’s actually hard to notice since the dashboard looks the same. Only after the rewatching, I see the mirror mounts are little different — with a chrome finish and with one more link .

I didn't watch it to give away any spoilers!

This is pretty exciting.  We are about a week from September!

Also I had no idea that video was inside a Mack Pinnacle.  SCS was being sneaky by hiding the fun right in front of us! I love them as a company!

It seems like each year around Christmas, SCS abounds with new products for us.

New forest roads... and cargoes!

That bromine tank looks so small compared with the normal *TS tank container .
What if the new patch release with all these new cargoes* will happen in one or two weeks, and the map expansion one more week later?

*And Mack Pinnacle, which is already on the official poster taken from the ATS site. The posters for Iowa and Missouri are almost ready — they are waiting for their featured trucks .

[EvergreenPinewood]

I'm thinking we will see everything within a few weeks.  Trucks, DLC, trailers, etc.

[Graymist]

Some real good looking environments.  They've grown so much as a studio.  It's amazing.
