Things That Should Be Corrected, Improved & New Ideas.
 

As pook suggested I created this thread, so feel free to express your opinions, wishes, suggestions... for future add-ons, patches :)

untill we play the game we can't really see what things we miss.

But, I want multiplayer. It would be really nice

Agreed. We can't say what the game needs before we know what it already has.

There is no need to discuss this question right now if you don't want to. I just created this thread because other users already have some suggestions.

Yy. Multiplayer is priority no:1

Yeah, multiplayer would definitely be cool. And with the multiplayer it would be nice to have a short range radio where you talk to other players within range based on your current location.

Another cool thing would be local radio stations, based on your current location. Actually, it wouldnt be too difficult to implement this, and to let you stream real radio stations if you are connected to the internet. You could let the radio pick these based on your location in the game. That would be super cool.

Yes, I agree with trucknisse. That would be super awesome! :D I realy hope they at least consider this idea.

Another thing that popped into my head long ago, was rentable billboard advert space ingame, that would be automatically updated every time you launch the game. Developers could rent billboards to real companies, maybe even for a very small fee. And they could/should create fictional adverts database, that could be used to fill in the gaps, if some space was left unrented. I would love to see those billboards constantly changing from time to time, just like in the real world. Also real ads in ad space does little harm ;].

This is a terrible ******* idea, this has been done before with EA games. They almost got sued over this, ads being placed into our computers with out agreeing to it. I dont want to see ads in real life and I sure as hell dont want to it in a video game. Fake in game ads I can understand, but having real time ads downloading as you play, no.

REALISTIC transmissions

few truck and trailer mods to go with up to date trucks and stuff

1. MULTIPLAYER
2. mods, with which you can change the sound of a truck.

professional addon, extra gears for people with custom built h gate gear boxes, or the ability to program any gear and add new commands easilly into the game like range change and split shift!

More trucks and next states (Nevada, ...)

Let them first just release the game instead of debate about addons..:-?

Nevada should be fairly easy, besides Las Vegas and Reno, there is only the very sparsely populated high desert with a few tiny mining towns here and there.

But yeah, it would be fun. And please add Arizona as well, the grand canyon state. And Utah, the most beautiful state in the US (No, its not my native state).

i think asking for a bigger map or map addons is a little ambitious lol

The first addons/patches : Las Vegas, Nevada

Ask by http://rignroll.taba.ru

Would not preclude the future plans to expand to:

Seattle, Portland Phoenix. Etc!

Missing...?
 

Add-ons, add-ins, mods, stuff... I think what we are missing is the GAME in the first place. With over six years of development and release date postponed several times, I believe we'll have to wait a few more years for the game to be released, let alone add-ons or mods. :(

Complaining about long development won't make the game to be released sooner. We have a release date, and it's final, the game will be released on November 27. Add-ons are already in development so this thread isn't as useless as you think.

Multiplayer ..to play against or with online peeps..something like peeps joining ur company..or u hire drivers around the world to play in rignroll and give them a company truck to drive ..etc etc..:o

Yeah that´s what I want too :grin:

There is an interest in some sort of Developers Kit, or some other patch, which would let modify the game :)

expansion of map area

-Map editor
-Realstic Transmissions
-New trucks
-Utah
-Some more minor edits like interior hanging items or headshaking dogs etc :D

There is no map editor

""What do you want to see in upcoming RnR addons/patches""

Official said: About a year later the release of RnR addons / patches

[Vegas addons ] Charges

Good points:
- Graphics, excellent better than ETS and Extreme Trucker etc..
- Good detail in Roads
- Damage is good and very detail
- Fuel and Repair your truck
- Restaurant and Hotel
- Reactions on Traffic (when driving on the wrong side not just like ETS be pigheaded and don't go away like in real life people will do but this is like real)
- Communicator Option (lots of information, which I am able to make out of Russian language)

Suggestions:
- Police don't go after you when overtake a car (or police car) without any reason for it because you don't touch their car
- Translation Patch Russian-English would be nice for us (taking me hours to translate it with Google -.-)
- Speed limit not set
- More arcade racing action game than a good proper simulator game (know that you can do it on your own rate but you still get less money in time and also your trailers giving the impression of 'racing')
- No time in the stafe above with speed and delivery time etc..

Furthermore it's a nice game :)

-Physic should be redone to be realistic.
-Sound fixed.
-Add technical failures like braiking of gearbox because of shifting into reverse while driving fast.

The truck is very difficult to keep in control in corners. I know they don't have traction control but the throttle is a bit too sensitive. The sharp corners are almost impossible, when you toch the throttle you make an U turn.

What are you using to play the game? Keyboard or a steering wheel with pedals?

Steering wheel with pedals. I mostly have the problem when it's pooring rain, than it is like it just frozen -4 C.

yeah, it's glitchy sometimes when making turns. I've had the u-turn thing happen even on just fast lanechanges. there is something weird going on there definitely. maybe it's related to trailer onto truck physics or something.

-Speedlimit sings
-Graphic problems
-In game can't go to main menu(GAME>ESC>MAIN MENU)
-Map zoom would be nice
-More trucks and trailers (Kenworth K100 would be nice too :D)
-Hands on the steering wheel
+Very good game :DD

You can use ctrl-tab to change the scale.

IDk, I've never had a problem with steering. The only time i have problems is when my truck is damaged. However, when I am in steep curves, I just let go of the accelerator and just cruise through the curves(after braking to a sensible speed) Of course I use the steering wheel and pedals, but it turns within the lane that I am in. If you are doing U-turns in curves, you must be going to fast or turning too hard.

For me, maybe make work the right hood mirror correctly without having to move your view to the right.

Forget the hood mirrors. It's a waste of money until it's fixed. Instead, buy the rear view camera/monitor in the repair/upgrade shop. When you get it, press the M key, and you get a nice rear view image. I use it extensively.

also bend all the mirrors as it would be realistic.
mirrors are always bended slightly for a bigger range to see what's behind you.

I have never used the camera on the back really I use the mirrors and find that to be enough but that may be to what I have traffic density set on

Rig'n'roll idea
 

hi guys i have been thinking about the idea of a virtual Cb for RnR useing the team speak software so that those who would like a cb type of setup can chat with other players and am wondering how many would use it.

How would this be used in the game? It sounds like a multi-player issue that the game is not designed for, or are you talking about communicating with the AI truckers that you hire? I'm wondering how this would be implanted in the game world. I remember 18WoS having a generic CB to get general information, but became dull, and repetitive.

this would use team speack which can be used both in and out the game as a voice over ip which will alower other players around the globe to chat to each other and simulate a cb without modifying the game in anyway shape or form so even though RnR is not multiplayer you be able talk in realtime to fellow players as if u using a cb they this function in microsofts flight simulator hope this helps.

That sounds great for the communicating type, but I wouldn't use it. Now if RnR could implant CB usage for the AI truck drivers that you hire...... Well that would be fantastic. Think of the possibilities.:grin:

i have to agree hence why me my friend who run our own website have come up with this idear to give the delovpers some incentive and provide an alternative for those wanting to have that feature in the meantime and there would no charge at all as all would be welcome to use it also it could be used to pass on tips and advice to others who need walked through some of the setups. but i know i have tired it myself and found it to be alot of fun

I used to do this when I owned my old trucking community (TruckSims). I had a teamspeak server and also a SAMP server where we would drive trucks together.

at the moment we are just floating the idear to gauge interest but if theres the number who would use it then it could be set up with little effort and time

This just seems weird to me. This would be an awesome idea if RnR supported multiplayer but as it is now there just wouldn't be any point to it at all IMO. I mean, what would you talk about? The players would all be in seperate "worlds" with different driving conditions etc so it's not like you could say "hey guys, anyone know what the weather is like near Oxnard" or "I'm currently on the I95 on my way to such and such, anyone heading the same way?" or stuff like that. For all you know the other guy could just as well be playing a totally different game, it would make no difference at all.

Just my 2 cents :)

I was trying to convey that very point, but I think you hit the nail on the head, better then I did a few postings back.

As stated in my above post this is just a idear and players could talk about anything not just RnR but in saying that it would be ideal for offering help to other players who may need walked through a mission etc

It could be a kind of online chat game tutors, but I really wonder how many people would use it.
Now I can see only few people posting even in this official forum...
Not many questions about the game itself here too.

Personally I would not use it because of not good at hearing and speaking English at all and also I don't know anything about real CB matters too :-P

For me it would be to fix the hood mirror

and fixe the problem that you can't take a load in a warehouse cause it tells you already have a current mission but you don't!

If we had a trucking game it could have been a great idea....but i dont see a good trucking game around....!!!

that was my other idear for it but i guess the need has to be there first
but i love your input

I think the guys from 1C Company dont really care about feedback for RNR. Even the RNR Mainpage isnt uptodate. Still April 16th. There are no details about a german release. :mad: So i am done with that game...i will not buy this garbage. I save my money for Games they are really worth to buy, with an even better support.

Nice work 1C ...after YEARS of waiting such a game with no Support

What a shame! :evil::evil::evil:

Here is my 2 cents.

1. The AI. To put it simply, fix them. They drive too slow, in US speed limit is 65mph now in most areas, they brake too hard in turns, most freeway turns are takable around 45mph, and they cant change lanes gradually, they seem to cross 3-4 lanes of freeway to exit.

2. The police need revised. They cite you even if the AI hits the side of your trailer. Here in the US, it is not required to give way to person merging into traffic, that person must yeild to existing traffic. And the police also hit you and then give you a citation for hitting them.

3. The normal mission ratio needs increased. I like the competition and race missions but once in a while I like to take a timed normal run.

4. The color schemes on the trucks is very limited. Why cant we have the ability to mod one skin for a company skin or at least have the full color spectrum?

5. Not enough truck makes. Forgot about most of the trucks seen on the road today or even 5 years ago. Trucks like FL Columbia, all Macks, Pete 386, just to name a few.

6. The right side mirrors dont display the right side of truck.

Other than that this game is awsome. :)

The overuse of road signs needs to be reduced. I don't know if this is normal in California or not.
There's like a (EX. "I-80 WEST Cityname here") sign every.. 1000 FT, it seems like. In RL they should be seperated by.. say, 5 miles?

I expected to see a simple interstate marker on the side of the road, like in RL.

Also, for goodness sakes, if you're going to block the god damn road to the LA Convention Center, don't do it at the bottom of the ramp. :P The blocked off ramps are annoying enough. But stopping on the ramp and the only way to get back on the interstate is to go in reverse..

Also, implement more of the California traffic rules into the game. Why post these "tips" that have nothing to do with trucking traffic laws, when hardly any of them are in the game?
Such as keep the so-called "fast lane" (left lane) clear of 35MPH-going AI drivers.

Well when you think of the map being 1-10th scale I would say the road signs are enough. I do agree with the traffic tho mate they do go too damn slow It's worse when you are on a single carriage lane and you cannot avoertake

IMO, they still overdid the signs. I know the roads are 1-10th the scale, but that doesn't mean they should do this.

Go to Temecula via I-15N. You'll see two signs showing the same thing infront of the Temecula Warehouse overpass. Both saying;
"Los Angeles
I-15 NORTH" (which doesn't make sense because I-15 doesn't go to LA in real life. Especially when going North)
This is a perfect example of signs being overdone.

One other thing, and I can't believe they left this typo go unnoticed. But what was to be the exit to Pasadena (the picture of the epic road sign in Los Angeles a few years ago), was changed to;
"Harbor Fwy
Downdown"
Should be changed to "Downtown". Not like it NEEDS to be changed, but it's confusing.

I agree with your statements. I especially like the part about interstate markers. This would be greatly appreciated, and add more realism to the game. As for the ramps... I fell for this too. Why bother putting up a blockade at the end of an exit if it's going nowhere from the main highway?? When I did it I had a bob-tailer behind me so, my only choice was to ram it, or reload a previous saved game. I opted for the reload so, I wouldn't have to pay a fine. :evil:

The AI traffic really needs to be overhauled. These complaints are all over the forum. I once had a car appear in front of me at night on an empty highway with me doing about 90mph. Good thing I have lots of saves!! 35mph on a lightly filled highway is a joke, and you wouldn't see that on a real highway unless it was for a bottleneck, a popular exist ramp, construction, or accident/rubbernecking.

I didn't read the patching list until today but I guess they should add a few more things that wouldn't be hard to do I guess, just like:

* Proper trailer physics allowing them to swing / turn / roll / move as an actual real trailer and not as if it is "stuck" in some part of the semi "locking" the trailer;

* Allowing us to brake the truck when we run out of gas (because when the gas is over, the truck is uncontrolable besides its steering, you cannot brake to make it stop faster);

* Add the use of real world gear speeds (8; 10; 13; 15, etc...);

There are a few more things I just can't remember now, but I'd add the ones I wrote above.

EDIT:
I just remembered something else.

* Improve the game speed from the outskirts of Atascadero until Past San Francisco, specially when you're cruising through San Jose, after all, running at 15 FPS and less is kind of annoying...

EDIT II:
I remembered one other thing guys.

* Correct the water splash on the windshield of the Freightliner Classic XL (currently there's no rain splash on the windshield).

The most important thing to fix is the mission issues that prevent you from advancing in the storyline.

Trailer physics, when going in reverse.

The weather system, I've been playing for a few weeks now and I'm yet to encounter a single drop of rain.

Other improvements that would greatly enhance the enjoyability of the game:

Manual hitching and unhitching of trailers. its ridiculous that no matter where you are if you're close enough to the trailer it just pops into place. Also you can unhitch or hitch the trailer while traveling at breakneck speeds without any problem.

You can run into gas stations and repair stations and other places at 100 mph. If you already have the 10mph limit for hitchhikers why not put the same rule to effect at these places as well?

Also about diners why is it that you have to go close to the building itself and you don't have to park.

It would be nice if you could get out of the truck when its stopped, and walk manually into diners offices, etc.

There are no parked cars or trucks anywhere in the game, all the lots are completely empty.

The traffic should be more aware of you, if you come up behind them and flash your lights, or sound the horn they should get out of the fast lane.

Also the way the traffic changes lanes is completely crazy they almost stop and start going perpendicular to the road sometimes. Also if I load a game all the traffic starts to change lanes erratically in front of me.

Allow me to decide if I want to take a job on the phone, after I've been given the details about where from and where to. How could I decide to accept a job or not if I don't know if it fits into my schedule or not. All I can do is save constantly in case a call comes in and I have to take the job to check out where does it take me. And if its unacceptable I have to load the last save game and turn it down. This really breaks up the flow of the game that I constantly have to go back to previous saves.

How does any 'Side Mission' prevent you from advancing in the 'Story Line'? I have never experienced this.

You sure do take the fun, and mystery out this game. See my thread "SPOILER ALERT!", and go to post #20 (Side Missions), and look at all the Side Mission Videos. There isn't one of them that doesn't tell you where to make a pick up, and drop it off. It's up to you (like a real trucker) to decide if you want to accept it, keeping in mind the loads, and missions you currently have. The person on the other end of the CB doesn't know your current load/mission status. This is part of the design, mystery, and fun of the game. You seem to want this portion of the game to be detailed for your own satisfaction. It's part of the game design, and requires you to think, and experiment with it. I've tried to convey this to you before, and you just can't seem to get any kind of grip on this. You keep calling it a design flaw, programming error, glitch, or what ever. It's not. It's done on purpose, and they're not going to change it to please you, and you seem to be the only one complaining about it, and doing it often.

Play it, learn it, experiment with it, and for crying-out-loud try to have fun, and enjoy it!

Out of all the people on this forum M76, is the most obsurd person ive seen so far
He says he hasnt seen one drop of rain so far?, maybe he needs to turn it on in the video settings, then he complains the side missions might interfere with his story line? Wow he is a complete retard seriously, side missions come up again if u skip it once to continue on with the Main story line, and if u turn traffic settings to maximum you will see traffic parked in lots.
All u do is complain and never try to solve the problem yourself or even try to use what is in that thick hallow skull of yours. Please just leave the forum already USA_Truck constantly has to tell you to stop re-posting issues and to stop complaining about the same thing on other people's posts. Seriously are you like 12 or completely retarded (Sorry for my rage USA_Trucker, but this kid probably annoys me and several other people on this forum)

Let's not get into name calling, and insults toward another member. You all know my view on this point. There are better ways to address the situation, and I play no favorites. You have been warned, and an infraction was issued. I'm not disagreeing with your post. Just the way you presented it. I'm warning both of you, and anyone else, if any further retaliation is made I will ban you for the amount of time I deem necessary to make my point. Friend, or no Friend. Melkor, you need to control yourself, as I once asked you to do. I do not like to ban anyone, so don't push it. This ends here, and now!

For example when its not a side mission? Or when the side mission gets stuck and you can't accept new jobs.
You're still trying to make me look stupid, and I really don't appreciate that. There were numerous jobs where either the pickup location, drop off point or both weren't discusses until after I accepted the freaking job. There is one particular mission I remember exactly because that's the most recent one. I was traveling from lone pine to mojave and on the right side of the road there was a trailer and a man standing beside it I emphasize the fact that it was on the right side of the road, so I assumed that's the direction it needs to be taken. I accepted the job, and AFTER pressing Yes, Nick asks where do I have to take it. The answer was Reno, which is exactly the opposite direction. So Please stop saying that you get the location everytime because its clearly not the case.

And he still doesn't get it. Who said anything about MY STATUS? But ME MYSELF NICK THE MAIN CHARACTER, does know if he has an iq over fifty that he is already on a timed job, and that he cannot decide to take on another assignment without this particular piece of information, so he needs to ask it but nooo, the game goes like this:
-Do you want the job Y/N
-Yes, where do I have to go?
-You have to go to the other end of the continent in five minutes.
-Ok, Now I have to use my time machine and go back to the beginning of the conversation and turn the job down.

You really don't see anything wrong with this?

Also there are the remarks where the client says that its not urgent and gives me five minutes to do it, which is only enough if I drop all loads and start racing to the pickup at maximum speed. Other times they say it has to be done very quickly and then the time limit is 60 minutes.

Its not mystery its stupidity have you ever encountered a logistics or trucking company that would accept jobs in the middle of another job without knowing anything about the job? I guess it would go out of business very soon, or maybe it was a money laundering front, because then it wouldn't matter how profitable it is.

I never said its a programming error, that would be very stupid of me, because clearly this is a conceptual error. And I don't give a damn what their intention was with it, when the result is pure annoyance.

The fact is he did tell you, didn't he? You weren't totally left in the dark. I was referring to CB Calls. Hitch-hikers, and people you meet are a little different. When you meet them it's pot luck, and a chance you're taking just like in real life. This part of the game I find amusing, and is what draws me into it. I like a certain amount of uncertainty.

No, I don't. It's you that has to make the decision based on the information you have, and the loads/missions you currently accepted. However, I don't remember too many 5 minute missions. Maybe they were the ones I rejected anyway. As of now I'm going through my third game to list some more spoilers, and thus far I haven't encountered a Side Mission that didn't tell me pick up & drop off destinations before I answered YES, and that includes some people I met on the side of the road.

Were you ever a trucker?? I had many job offerings while on the road. Pick up here, and drop it off there. I didn't get the full story until I met with the merchant, and got the bill of laden. That company is still in business across the US. Ask any OTR trucker that question, and over 75% will tell you YES, and they're probably working with a highly reputable company. This helps a trucker from "Dead-Heading", and greatly aids him/her if they're carrying a half a load. This is precisely what keeps a trucking company in business.

Either way you, and I seem to be at an impasse. It's just a part of the game you're going to have to deal with yourself. I have no problem with this feature of the game. As I said before, I think is adds some mystery to the game, and I like mysteries. I also don't mind making multiple saves, and reloading to see the "What If" results if I chose to accept, or refuse a mission. This always seems to greatly help me when I play the game over. With a game like this I sit with a pad & pencil. I like to take notes. I'm already beginning a list of how much each mission is worth, and how much the penalty is for canceling it. I may even put in the time limits too.:cool:

In my eye, it still seems a bit "unreal" such as the logos on the trailers, they need to get rid of that. The trucks are pretty good, but that's a tiny portion of what we have in cali. We have lot's more trucks here, like Fords, More stock western stars, hell lot more volvo and international's and freightliners. The trailes are good, but like i said with trucks, there's only a tiny bit. we have lots of belly dump doubles here, lots of 53' vans and dropdeck vans, and lots of Container trailers

What i really would love to see in here:

• Real licensed logos (Taco bell, Peterbilt, Kenworth)
• Doubles!! No B-doubles, cali doesn't have that, just reg. doubles
• More Trucks!!
• More Trailers!!
• Better trailer physics
• No dead truckstops
• Smarter Traffic
• A tad bit more cities (Covina, Irwindale, Hemet, Leemore, More Urban Cities and More Northern Cities)
• A little bit more "action and fun"
• Option to manually dock trailers at Docks, Gas Stations, Refineries, etc depending on trailer
• A bit more things with what a real trucker would have in mind.

;)

I remember seeing the Internationals trucks but I guess they removed them because they couldn't get the license?

-When you press the clutch and gas at the same time truck shouldn't start accelerating !
-Traffic should change lane slower, with caution and blinker and with paying attetntion to Player

hi

the game is good but the police want money from me because someone crashed in my truck. thats very stupid.

and another one is: i open some new offices but can´t get in because they are not exist.

hope so that you make an update in the next time with these improvements.

greetings

smoke

I would do with pleasure an improvement 1. More money 2. More bulls 3.all ways with him drive backward in dead ends / highways 4. an autopilot I of to order to me also do can shake 5. a Minnigun for roof with it I swearing customers and bulls immediately with 150 shots the second wegballern greeting is able to do thus your soliddriver

PS: Oh, I see one still I have ascertained this my semitrailer always itself uncouples improvement outside mirror detonation from cars / filling stations / houses or burstting people nicely lasts in the moving / to see, otherwise, notices never do him One uncouples to THANKS

Left and Right Side Mirrors
 

Is there a way to get both the left and right side mirrors on the screen when using the cockpit view similar to the setup in 18 wheels of steel where i can have the mirror displayed. Its annoying to use the mouse to move the camera so i can look at the mirror

no but you can buy some new mirrors in some truck stations and they are in front of your truck.so you dont need the other ones again.

see you

logan

Actually, a better way is to get the "Monitor". If you buy the mirrors in front of your truck, you will find that the left & right mirrors will be left mirrors only.

There was only one time I experienced a horrible glitch in the game, where the truck and trailer both launched a mile into the air. I sat and waited for both to fall back down, quite amused yet annoyed that I had gone so far without a save. To my luck, the trailer landed on the opposite site of the road, across from a barrier on I-80. Wish I had taken some pictures, but didn't think of it at the time...

From what I remember it was I-80 westbound, right before the I-5 interchange. I drove around the ramp to pick up the trailer, backed into it to bring it rightside up again, only have the police on my tail (what a surprise). That was a problematic trip, but otherwise I haven't seen many catastrophic bugs.

Is it just me, or does the Freightliner Classic XL not pick up any rain on its windshield? That's my favorite truck in the game, but I decided to trade it in as I found it unrealistic having it pour rain around me but not need the wipers.

Speaking of the rain, does anyone experience a full overcast when it's raining? It seems to always been sunny despite it pouring down rain, does it have to do with the difficulty level I chose?

Also, the traffic not only travel unbearably slow, and inch their way around the corners, but they seem to drop the FPS quite a bit too.

Also one tiny thing, I noticed that in the showroom when viewing a truck the correct marker lights would light up when the headlights were on (like the turn signals), but they won't when you're actually driving. All the normal flares work fine, it's just the turn signals are usually also "flares" or parking lights.

It would be great of these bugs could be fixed in an upcoming patch. Otherwise, it's an excellent game :grin:

Can any one answer these questions?
 

Are there any expansions planned for this game?

I’d like to see the whole of the USA as the map. What a game that would be! You could then drive from Florida to Seattle.

Traffic lights and roundabouts would be nice together with a bigger playing area and better weather (more realistic). I’ve had three weeks dry followed by three weeks rain.

Can you loose the police? I get chased all the time but I can never outrun them. Is it possible or am I wasting my time?

Please help if you can.

Please don't ask SPOILERS Questions. They will be deleted if not placed in the proper SPOILER thread. You should know better.

Kimmy

You can't outrun the police. Stop crashing into cars, and they won't bother you.

Fix the cut scenes. Many times it just automatically cuts some words from someone. And Many times the words arent the same as the subtitles.
Make some speed limit signs. And make some more deliveries where you dont have to race. I dont want to search much to find a non-racing delivery

You should be able to set the driving difficulty yourself without changing the Difficulty level(which also changes the delivery times). I have the easiest level so I dont have to race to transport every delivery in time.

something to consider....
 

hope this is in the right place if not can admin move it...;)

ok after playing for a while now i have a couple of suggestions for the game developers that hopefully they might put in any future patch or fix for both D/L version and CD version..

1)with regards to the side missions i have noticed that it is impossible to do them all especially when you are in a certain area and you get a few come in at once,so would it be possible to be able to have a third option instead of just yes or no,something along the lines of "im in the middle of something now but will get to it later",then you can activate it in your journal when you are ready,i think this would be a good idea because i would really like to do all side missions.

2)i also think that you should be able to access your office planner from your truck just like you can access your journal,this is so you can manage everything when you are not near one of your offices.

3)i think i have seen this one somewhere before but i will say it anyway,please can you implement a toggle switch on the menu to turn the timer off as this would make this game more better,if you want to race against the clock then good,if you dont then at least you have that option of turning it off

4)this one is not really for the developers but for anyone who can maybe answer it,i am sure i saw something somewhere that showed this game with pedestrians in it but i dont have any in my game,did they not put them in or is it not available with the CD version or do i have to D/L a patch/fix,any help on this one is appreciated....:grin:

@Mark39,

Please take some time to read/search the threads. You continue to post "I'm not sure this is the right place", and I continue to relocate your postings. If I can find the appropriate area, so can you. This is just being lazy. I have better things to do. So be considerate to your fellow readers, and me.

yeah sorry usa trucker,i found this thread after i posted but was unable to move it,i do use the search but didnt find what i was looking for which is why i posted where i did,i will do my best to post in the proper place in future.....:cool:

Ok a lot of good suggestions. But here is mine.

1) The timer shouldn't be completely abolished but instead amended so you get a penalty if cargo is late instead of voiding the whole cargo.

2)Add traffic signals at certain places like when your in S.F and heading from the freeway towards Lombard Street-G.G. Bridge. You must make a left turn onto Lombard street and some traffic has hit me even though it looked clear. Someone suggested roundabouts but here in California we really dont have those.

3)Some trailers brake/turn lights dont work. Like the lumber trailer and the red/yellow container trailer.

4)Get rid of the "Failure to give way to the right" offense. Here in the USA there is no law about having to give way like in Europe.

OK this is all I could think about for now.

hert:cool:

Even though I'm British, I've went to Los Angeles on holiday a couple of years ago, however, I'm amazed to not seeing any Hells Angels or motor bikes in RignRoll, this simulator is set in California, biker country, where are all the Choppers??

I would also like to see more mobile homes and caravans for vacationers, some of the ground textures (green farmfields) are a little wishy washy, trailer lights could be a little brighter. I would have liked a freeroam session to have been included, however, that would not have given me any money to spend acquiring new equipment, but, to drive around the breathtaking countryside in just a rig would be nice, especially without sticking to a given time period.

Thank you.

Hello, and welcome to the forum.

Nice suggestions. I myself am a biker, and would love to see this in a future patch. The free roam idea would also be good for people to learn on, and take in the scenery.:cool:

Thank you Sir, it's nice to know a forum exists for RignRoll, this will certainly help if assistance is required for anything technical, playmode, etc, etc, in the future.

I was just thinking that I've only seen Police cars in this game, California Highway Patrol motorbikes, Fire Trucks and Paramedics might also be welcome in the future.

1. When AI drivers make an acident, they should stop and wait for the cops with blinkers on. Unless they would decide to intencionaly run away.

2. User radios should be improved. Songs should be played randomaly.

3. Nver had blow tire. When tyres get weared out they should blow up,not just make truck drive like on ice.

THe performance of the game should be IMPROVED. I hate I cant run RignRoll smooth or near smooth. But with games like Farcry2 and Dirt2. Wich looks great at high setting. I can run them MUCH smoother.
I dont get it why RignRoll Is so much worse. It has almost no people around. Graphics dont look so good. And... well.
Farcry2 has all moving stuff. Like trees and so on. RignRoll doesnt! So why does this game has such a low performance?

And please fix all the other bugs!

Do something about those Delivery/race stuff. I dont want to be driving at 100 MPH to get my delivery in time. I have to set my difficulty level at the lowest. So I dont have to race.
And do something about the traffic driving into you. It is really annoying. You can pass a truck feeling safe because you know that truck could switch into your lane at any time. And The lane switching is done FAST! Doesnt take a second to do that for the traffic I guess...

Bugs for being patched up
 

- The quick savegame sometimes fails epic, there is no savegame even if you did saved with F6 , in load menu it appears , the preview is black.
- The sound must be patched up properly , I mean the all CB , rpm discrepancies between notches , radio , AI cars are completely insane .
- The police behavior is strange like hell , they jump in front of the truck and then fine you well , also if anyone hits you , the one who's charged it's the player for 'changing lanes interference'
- Fuel consumption is the same if the engine is running at 1500 rpm or 24-2500 rpm which is totally unrealistic. Also the physics should be better set . So much years and still it's a unfinished work.
- If the RNR had Physx core it would be more than awesome , (CUDA technology in NVIDIA graphics would have boosted the performance up to (not mistake) 400%)
-Main menu works slow and laggy as hell while the game runs well even for a mainstream video card like I have, except few areas where fps is going sometimes down, really down ,on US 101 northern half near cities Greenfield ,San Jose , SF Airport.
-Only 1 truck company is fully licensed : Freightliner , thanks God for being Argosy such a awesome truck while others have names bought from grocery for 1/2 gallon of petrol or diesel
-The timed requests is very good but in some cases you are allowed to spend more time while in some cases the time is just chaotic set. It should be available a postpone function . The delays over the time should be charged from your account not cancelled .
- Damage also can be improved , steering braking acceleration too .
- The weather is buggy : it's raining and there's no clouds
- GPS is just nuts , it doesn't know which way to take
- Front mirrors buggy
- Breaks usage is just too steep .
in final I can say that this racing simulator or whatever it is just awesome but it has a lot to fix and to improve to be a proper one . Take as example NFS Shift's physics .

Is there ever going to be made a patch? this thread has been made 8 months ago now. And still we the bug that you cant turn your truck+trailer without the trailer going sideways. Any many other bugs.

Since the release. something simple and important as fixing the cut-scenes. Which are always buggy has not been done.

Performance is awfull. And I dont have a clue. At my screen at 12 FPS I only see a plain desert with a empty road. And I Have lag.

Are the bugs getting fixed one day? Or are these topics just useless?

It's not useless. Remember it took 8 years to get this game out. When I know, you'll know.

I would like to see and hear more life in this game.

Some parking trucks on the truck stops and maybe some birds flying arouns in the air.
Maybe planes (Flying far away would be enough, doesn't have to be too detailed).

Very important: Sounds!
I never hear the rain or the sound of the trees in the wind. Look at Test Drive Unlimited, the ambient sounds there are great. And sounds of rain (inside and outside the truck) would be great, too.

I think that these things wouldn't cause any problems for professional game developer, so it MUST be possible to add these things in the game.

Optimization... Game is not running enough smooth on powerfull machines.
Which car in game does not have any raindrops on window? I tried all the trucks and all of them has rain drops on the window. I got polish version. English is 3.0.1.0, polish 3.0.3.0, russian 3.0.4.0, and german 3.0.2.0. I got all the hotfixes. I think that english version has more bugs.

I saw a clock on the dashboard but is not working, would be awesome to make it work to show the time in the game.

You can find out what time it is by going into the journal. It's on the bottom of the screen.;)

But it would be nice if the dashboard clock would work, too. As a nice extra. Maybe he meant that. ;)



I have another idea:
This HUD that shows time, speed, fuel and so on. It should be possible to make it disappear with pressing a key and with pressing the key again it should appear.
Sometimes I'm irritated by this HUD it wished to remove it.

The most important things now for me is performance. At the main menu i have a FPS of 10 and when I go to load story It suddenly drops to 4-5. Do something about the drop of FPS on several locations from San Fransisco to Atascadero on the 101.

@ Patrick,

Do not post Side Missions, or Story-Line Missions outside of the Spoiler Alert threads. Even if you are reporting a problem with it.

Ow sorry:-P

Well atleast there is a bug that makes a mission impossible. Because the trailer starts moving when its parked on the road untill it gets stuck behind those fences :evil:

I've done that particular mission 3 times, and never had that problem.;) Anyway let's continue this on one of the "Spoiler Alert" threads.

Sometimes when I get a new trailer the lights of it wont work. No turning, brake and normal lights.
