Trucking Simulator Games Discussion

Finland has tons of lakes for fishing.

New assets and where they are made

Oh, I also work in the Autodesk software — not Maya, but also a stuff to create the 3D buildings and put various structures and systems inside.
Since the facilities developed by us have at least a couple of loading depots, the architects use a plugin for drawing truck routes (with selectable truck configuration, of course), which apparently are calculated for a certified driver with good skills in reversing. The assets for a driving game should have much more free space around the truck .

[Rainberry]

I really want to learn how to drive better.  The academy will be so cool!

[Silverwing]

I always like seeing how they do stuff.

Louisiana is coming!

[MasterXtreme]

HECK YEAH!  I wonder if they feel some states need to be bundled soon.  I could almost argue louisiana and Alabama together.... almost.

Couldn't help but notice the music for the teaser was JURASSIC PARK MUSIC!!!    

[MasterXtreme]

Decided to add Lousiana, Iowa and Nordic Horizon's even though they are far far away.... in a galaxy....

It has me wondering if they can afford to have another team.  Obviously one to get to Chicago (then some team will have to fill in the other midwest states), but after Chicago will a team race for New York?  I think they shouldn't and fill in all the states before and level to Illinois.

Will the team who finishes Louisiana start finishing up previous states or will there be a direct line being made for Florida?

So many possibilities.

Iowa Research Trip

Looking at the highway photos, I think the different types of pavement on different areas of the road may look more fresh than those copy-pasted cracks we see in recently released or reworked states.

[MasterXtreme]

Southern states have a lot of cracked and old beat up roads.   Iowa will be a breath of fresh air... and corn.

[Silverwing]

There are way too many hills in those Iowa photos than I am comfortable with.

[Soda]

There are way too many hills in those Iowa photos than I am comfortable with.

Lol! This made me laugh.

[NostradamusTheSeer]

There are way too many hills in those Iowa photos than I am comfortable with.

Feh. Next you'll be complaining that there's too many mountains in Kansas.   

If something as important as a town name can be so meaninglessly named from a girl holding a can of tomatoes... that makes me very sad.

Oh, there are plenty of towns with far worse names... Remind me sometime to tell you how close the place where I live came to being called "Gayoso City".

[timmelon]

Feh. Next you'll be complaining that there's too many mountains in Kansas.   

Well, we had some complains when this state was added a year ago.

Kansas is so flat.  But I am loving me these rural places.  Once we fill in more states, it will be easier to drive instead of having to avoid states not yet included.

The land is so flat, so the draw distance can be not enough . Of course, when there are no fog (a new weather effect, which appears at morning and evening pretty often... but usually not as strong as on my picture). Even the bridges at the intersections seem to look lower than usual .

I think I have found the most flat part of Kansas — between Dodge City and Hays. Hays itself uses some interesting way to slow down the traffic . Later I was shocked by seeing the HILLS (!) north to Hays, also, at the same parallel near Garden City there are some rock formation which deserves to be a photo trophy more than the water tank of Hutchinson (the elevators from there look more impressive )

Oh, there are plenty of towns with far worse names... Remind me sometime to tell you how close the place where I live came to being called "Gayoso City".

Still, I love the name of this city:

Yes, yes, I remember it’s spelled differently .

[Rainberry]

^ Man that Tim guy does nothing but complain.  

I remember a long time ago there was a promotional photo from one of the more flat state DLC's and someone was celebrating when they saw a slight hill in the background.  Not sure who it was.  Very similar to posts here recently.
