Trucking Simulator Games Discussion

The Mustang looks and sounds amazing! It's still blowing my mind seeing this game from a different perspective. We are lower, and amongst traffic now. It seems so forbidden, like I need to be driving a truck!!

I really feel they will need to add more surface streets in towns and other locations to make cars make sense.  A car is absolute freedom and we don't have that in this game. Routes are pretty self contained. I still don't know how they will make this work.

The Mustang sounds so American. I got to say I love how it rumbles. I can not wait to drive these American muscle cars and massive trucks! So American!

The Mustang video was really nice. I agree that it seems so weird to see us driving a car where we would usually be driving trucks. It was nice they showed off the route and gave us an idea of what to expect with "ATLAS." I assume we will be able to free roam I hope. I would like to be able to leave my truck in one garage, drive to another garage in a car, then drive a truck from that garage.

I am curious if we will have to buy the cars from DEALERSHIPS as well? Will a Dodge or Ford dealership be in the game, or will we just have an online market or generic car dealership? Will we even buy the cars or will the be all unlocked at once?

Introducing North Dakota

As usual, we have an official trailer shortly after the teaser.
The scenery looks more and more green — this screenshot reminds me the areas we have seen in the ETS map expansion last winter .

I think ATS especially excels in rural states. I look more forward to them than the urban ones. I cannot wait!

I'm loosing track of everything in development.

[Anyponedrawn]

I like the wide open states! I'm excited.

I really think North Dakota and South Dakota should be bundled though.  I know that is unfair to the devs who create all that space though.

North Dakota! Okay, let's combine the north and the south and make one BIG DAKOTA!

Which would be easier, do you think, combining North and South Korea or North and South Dakota?  Numismatic guide books don't even recognize them as separate countries, I've read.  You can't even take a Norky coin out of the country owing to heavy sanctions.

Combine South Dakota with North Korea? Let's not do that.

Dakota. The State of Dakota. I like it.

If Dakota Fanning ever gets her own sitcom, there's your title.  "State of Dakota".  I also have an idea for one with Cardi B. and her crazy family: her wealthy diamond-decked sister Cardi A.; mother, Cardi Mom; health nut aunt Cardi O.; sweater-wearing uncle, Cardi Gann; Irish grandmother and sassy senior Cardi O'Gram; inveterate gambler cousin Cardi Sharp....

Combine South Dakota with North Korea? Let's not do that. 

Eh, give the left time.  They've all but got parts of Michigan under Sharia law already. They've polluted the water and virtually tanked the auto industry, but if the Dems get the right people in power, then soon you ladies whose--ahem--bits measure up can legally be recognized there as men.  So come to Dearborn. Marry multiple wives! Build your own harem!    (The game designers are not political, I'm sure, but it'd be pretty funny for some fan to call upon AI to whip up a "welcome to" state sign to that effect.)
