Wide open spaces! Something I have sorely missed in ETS2.  Looks amazing and peaceful.

SCS-approved radio in 1.60

Hmm... I remember being an active listener of the radio streams in 2016-2019 — after one YouTuber have recommended one station with funny old pop music  (sadly, it doesn’t work now). Looks like the way how these new stations are added is done for having one more widget and nothing more, otherwise they could add them just as five links in Radio Streams window.

Iceland is looking incredible. I love those remote towns and how they look!

These radio stations are interesting. I wonder if they will have hosts (they will have hosts?) or just royalty free music? I assume it will all be instrumental.  Might be a nice layer when doing things like Road Trip.

They say Escape will be the dedicated royalty-free station for safe streaming.
The screenshot says other four stations will be not safe .

I'm still trying to figure this out.  So are these pre-made stations that will repeat after a certain amount of time, or do they plan on updating it over time with new segments and music?  This is interesting and it seems like a big expense to have licensed music for a relatively small studio.

What is this update?  Weird.  They are really jumping all in on this "widget" thing.

I think this could be a nice addition to the game.  Seems aimed at console players who can't control what they listen to like us in the SUPERIOR PC MASTER RACE!

I didn't see this on my cards at all.  I have so many questions.  So this isn't a live streaming service is it? I actually hope they don't have fake ads. 

Funny ads are great in GTA, but unless they are skilled, I'd just stick to calm music.

Better materials for 1.60

They keep posting the news for the upcoming patch — I hope not because it will be released next month due to being very small .
Also, I hope the game optimization will be good enough to ensure that the improved textures is not slowing down the FPS.

[flemishcap]

^ I am assuming it will be very small. They've been smaller lately.

[RainySunshine]

I know these changes aren't flashy for most people but I like it.

It was five years since the previous materials rework, when they did the rocks and stones less shiny. In general, the old versions of *TS were overloaded with bloom effect .

[RainySunshine]

I remember the bloom.  Oh so much bloom!  :')
