Time to do this. I love this time of year! So many amazing DLC's to explore and WOT events! Trucking, trucking, and more trucking!

MAN Lion’s Coach

Another mirrorless vehicle . I think, the display for the right camera could be bigger (or just closer) — that screenshot doesn’t convince me I can see very much there.
At least, the interior mirror is real... for now.

It's a nice looking coach.  I can see they are putting the same effort into it as their trucks.

The bus simulator community is buzzing with news and videos that SCS is returning to bus driving.

That looks great!

Wow!!! This is so unexpected.

That’s some interesting way to introduce the new truck brand in ATS .
Also, Peterbilt 389 is going to be reworked and get a big tuning pack — just like Kenworth W900 in the previous year. Even the single rear axle chassis is on the way:

(although I don’t know is it an exclusive, or every «classic» truck will have 4×2 chassis by that time)

[MasterXtreme]

Classic trucks?  The Scania is for ATS?  And a Ford?  WOW!!

[Anyponedrawn]

Oh yes, yes!! I got to listen to the Christmas stream too!

Norway's coast is so amazing.  I also finally realized why Finland is known for their lakes.  They are EVERYWHERE!

I also finally realized why Finland is known for their lakes.  They are EVERYWHERE!

The physical map of that region gives me impression that some time ago there was one huge lake, divided to a bunch of smaller ones after the water level went down.

Luckily, the bottom was not flat, so the water mostly remained on its place instead of collecting at one of the former lake’s edge, which happened with Aral Sea:


P.S. I don’t know if there will be more posts in SCS Blog (last year they posted even at 29th of December ), but I am already going to close my profile for this year — there was a bit more trucking than in 2024.
ATS: 208 hours played, 141 in-game days, 240 deliveries, 157 700 miles, Level 69, 85.32% of map discovered, 18 garages, 90 trucks, 126 trailers.
ETS: 216 hours played, 172 in-game days, 261 delivery, 227 000 km 141 050 miles, Level 68, 80.09% of map discovered, 18 garages, 90 trucks, 126 trailers.

(^some interesting Swedish architecture was found between Uppsala and Gävle )

I don't know what my totals for years end were, but I'd say it was similar to years before. Definitely playing this Nordic Horizons more than Greece though.  It's awesome.

Thanks for sharing your annual stats, Tim!

[MasterXtreme]

Nice stats Tim! Interesting you played less, did less in-game days, did less deliveries, and drove less miles in ATS, but ended up being ranked higher!

Interesting you played less, did less in-game days, did less deliveries, and drove less miles in ATS, but ended up being ranked higher!

That means I just had more Fragile, High Value or Just-In-Time deliveries (+20% XP for each category) in ATS .
P.S. As I said before, they still have posts for this year. Today it’s a video from the bus shown a week ago.

There is so much information I am parsing through in this SCS Christmas stream.  SO MUCH.  Who else forgot the California rework came out this year?  It seems like it was last year.  This game had SO much content come out this year. One thing I heard is Pavel mentioned they are reworking on Nevada.

[timmelon]

Who else forgot the California rework came out this year?

Correction: it was done in 1.53 one year and one month ago. However, the upcoming update of the Route 66 may give more additional details to the cities where it begins .
