I found it interesting how only eleven people worked on the Oklahoma DLC.  They do not need a lot.  Thankfully Kansas is a bigger, but equally as empty a state, lol!

I wonder how many work less work on reworks or EU countries?

At the 29:45 mark in the video, I found their conversation about the map scaling interesting, and if it is going to be a problem moving forward.

What did they say about it?  I have to imagine it is getting difficult as places get smaller.

That they enjoyed the wide open spaces of Montana and Wyoming to build, but that things are getting a little tight in some other states.  Oklahoma provided a challenge showing it's open spaces, but making it have towns and be a mix of the two.

Official Nebraska announcement!

Of course, this is definitely for the next year, but... what if this DLC will be released in April or May?

[MasterXtreme]

Okay, okay... Kansas, Nebraska, they are rolling along pretty fast here.

These flat states should move along faster.  We also have the California rework news coming soon too.

For ETS2 we have WB and Switzerland, but no news on the Swiss for quite awhile.

These states could be a perfect starting place for the first 18WoS game, which physical engine didn’t count any slopes .
But the level of detail, available in 2002, made the developers start from states with more interesting scenery, also, since there were no blogs, you could not afraid to see a wall of comments like «— Why my truck don’t slow down at climbs an don’t run faster at descents? Unrealistic!» about Wyoming or Colorado. Today the level of detail is much better, so, SCS can make any state look good.

SCS can make any state look good.

New Jersey enters the room.

I saw this lovely house while driving along the Oregon coast and thought I would totally live there within this game world.  I was wondering if there are any particular homes or buildings you would like to live in within the game world of ETS2 and ATS?  Just whenever you find one, feel free to post it. I will do the same next time I drive by the house I like.

[MasterXtreme]

^ I've done that a handful of times.  I might keep an eye out.

Don’t forget to look at the reworked cities of Germany.
Travemünde got an internal ferry (just look how narrow the strait is), and Kiel has the loooong brick buildings .

Also, I just noticed that guy in (updated in earlier patches) Nürnberg:

[Rainberry]

I wonder if the "End is Near" guy was on Google Streetview or something in that spot irl?

[Graymist]

I haven't even looked at ETS2.  It is being overshadowed by all the news and updates in ATS.  I will get to it eventually, it looks nice.

[MasterXtreme]

^ Same, I haven't had time.
