Trucking Simulator Games Discussion

[Grapefoot]

We might not get bored as hardcore TRUCKERS, but there is a large casual fanbase we have to hope doesn't just move on.

We're lucky though that the hardcore TRUCKER base seems to be quite loyal and insane... I mean.... were playing a game that is essentially a job.

Just like those flight simulator games, right?

I think part of the joy is doing something you might not actually be able to do as well as sit back and enjoy the scenery.  There is a reason this trucking game doesn't mimic rush hour traffic.  No one would enjoy sitting in bumper to bumper traffic taking 30 minutes to move a half an inch!

There is a lot to be excited for.

I am essentially the only person doing deliveries in Longview WA and Vancouver on ATS right now, lol.  I love watching that number go up.  Lol!  I am aiming for any location people aren't going too. This WoT event is so awesome.

LOL! That is you?  I'm looking at the numbers right now and one of the numbers bumped up on Vancouver as I was watching.  It must be you!     They have such a limited area for depots, so many people either just get deliveries from Portland or Olympia and Tacoma.

Some info about the photos from the stream

I didn’t expect the new posts in this year . No exact dates, of course, only another confirmation of their working on the new trucks... for those who didn’t watch the stream .

Well, this is awesome to see!   I didn't expect anymore blog posts this year, but SCS is the master of surprises. We know Denton will be in Texas eventually, but I think it would be very cool if they added the testing facility in Washington.  They actually have room to do it.  It would be at the Burlington exit on the way to Coupeville (and the ferry).

You are right, it is possible for them to add the test facility of Mount Vernon,WA  if they have permission.  With how they places Bellingham and how they placed Coupeville, they could actually make it work.  It would be more or less a fun area with no real missions to it.... though hear me out.  Remember how they wanted to have a 'trucking' school in the game someday i the future?  A place to teach proper parking and various things?  What if they made this test facility the place to actually do that?  That would be cool and give it purpose.



They are adding the Peterbilt manufacturing facility in the game, which will be in Denton, TX.  Image of it is below.

I like these tech centres with demo race track. And I see Volvo and Scania have build their own ones, with more complicated track layout.

That yard in the red square is present in ST... uhm... Scania Truck Driver Simulator.

[flemishcap]

When they expand Sweden... maybe we will see a new test track for Volvo?  lol.

I'd prefer they focus on other stuff at the moment though.  Test tracks are cool, but it's not vital to gameplay.

The year has not ended yet!

(SCS Twitter post with video)

The developers still don’t let us go . Another «Guess where we are?»-like challenge, this time with screenshots from Oklahoma.

[Rainberry]

Oklahoma is going to seem like an extension of Texas.
