The scenery is incredible. This is one area where SCS was lacking in previous games. It's new and refreshing. It's not the same thing OVER and OVER. You really feel like you're driving in America.

The truck interiors are great. So many camera angles, and functioning steering and shifting animations as well. That's a great touch. The sleeper is great to see as well. And they are all customizable and unique to every truck, which makes it all the better.

Physics on the other hand could use a LOT of work. But just driving down the road isn't so bad. Cornering and backing is when it gets awful.

The radio is also a great feature. My only gripe is the fact that it should have more modern songs (at least for country...but hey, that's just me) :D

Overall it could easily use improvement but despite the bugs and problems it's a GREAT game.

What's so shocking about that. He looks ahead, and they're not as expensive as they use to be. I have a C & D drive that are 1TB each, plus an external one. I shouldn't have to upgrade them for years to come, and I think that's what he was thinking about too. :cool:

Im really dissapointed in this game...after the long wait its just a load of crap.you dont make a racing game out of a trucking game...its better to take your time and cruse and see the scenery. im really glad i didnt pay for this.The only thing i like is that they used more than 140 megs of the disk finally to make a game.

Its not pirated...dont worry I borrowed it from my grandmother....Honestly I would shoot myself if I wasted my money on this game. However...if they ever straighten it out and do away with the racing element,and fix the driving psysics...ill buy it...but I always try before I buy if possable cause ive been ripped A FEW times on games that are advertised better than they really are.sorry for the spelling but im an impatient typer...lol.

That It would have been nice to have the game with the graphics but keep the gameplay like UK or German trucker game...I mdont understand how a company can make so many good games as far as driving psychics go and then fail so bad on this one...it doesent make sence.all the other games are great for driving and graphics...i have always wondered why they didnt use more than 140 megs to make a game that looked so good.For instance a game like UK trucker would have so much more places to go if they would use the whole disk...keep the graphics and game play intact and add more places to go.If they used the whole disk you could go all the way down route 66 for example.now im just rambling on...sorry....you know what i mean.

This game is advertised as a simulation/racing game. Those that purchase it are aware of what they are getting into in that respect. You don't have to race to play the game. Time limits on loads are normal as they are in real life. It could use some adjusting though.;)

If you have enough money stashed in your account, you could just cruise around, and enjoy the scenery. I've done this many times. When funds get low, I just pick up a load, or do a mission when it comes along. This game has many approaches, and you don't even have to do the "Story-Line" if you don't want to, to play this game.

By the way...
Welcome to the forum.

Im liking it more now.

Im going to have to take back what I said about this game...I have been playing it all day and im starting to get used to it and im liking it more now. Its still a little quirky and i lose control quite often in the corners...and i have a real nice ferrari driving wheel....but besides that i really love the night time graphics. I am from california...Los Angeles...and it makes me feel like im there...lol.I wish there was a way to see your route on the mini map as you drive...that would help a lot.

I have been trying to tell people that for months. Most complaints come from those that are looking for errors without trying to explore the game just a little. Time needs to be invested in this game. Aside from the major issue of trailer physics, it's a pretty good game. There are minor design flaws as with other games, but nothing that can't be over-looked. I'm glad to see that you put some time in it. Not too many people are willing to do what you just did as far as being too quick to judge. Keep playing, and you'll discover some nice surprises that you weren't expecting.:cool:

Cant say enough about night time.

I must admit the first time i drove into a city at night I was taken aback...its well worth overlooking the small flaws....its really beautifull....I could drive around at night all the time cause i love city lights. I have a very large collection of city lights at night photos.
