but i must say i am truly impressed with the weather and night time

I noticed the problem in that video and having the game myself, driving the same truck, it doesn't sound like it does in the video. I know if you let off the gas completely and then accelerate again you get a short revving sound and the engine picks up again but I haven't noticed it otherwise.

Even though it was already mentioned, traffic lights and speed limit signs would be great. Engine sounds being updated would be nice as well. And since they clearly developed several trucks besides the 13 that are in the game, it would be great to have the Internationals, Macks, Volvo, etc. back in. Even if they have to change the names.

Since I'm waiting for the English version I can't really give many suggestions

I'm actually in the process of doing a write-up on the game at the moment. I don't speak or read Russian though so it's coming from the perspective of someone who has to play the game by feel instead of reading what anything says, which should be interesting, and like Ubaku says, the traffic lights and speed limit signs are a big issue, and you're not the only one looking for the rest of the trucks that were there. I personally want to see them all (even the K100) put back in the game, even with fake names, and I'm addressing that as well. It might end up here in the forums too. Who knows, maybe Softlab will take the concerns about the trucks into consideration.

I haven't got the game yet, but judging by the videos, I think that there are a couple of things that need some fixing.

-The sounds. They're just terrible. If you listen to the video that evh5150vanhalen posted, the sounds don't even change pitch, which sounds terrible in my oppinion. Some new samples wouldn't hurt neither, but I understand if that would be too hard.
-The trailer physics need some adjusting as well.
-A HI-LO range selector (so we could have at least 10/12 gears). But a splitter would be better, even if it made the game harder for, well, what I guess you can call the "casual gamer"
-This is just a little gimmick I'd like to see really, and it'd be that the steering wheel ingame turned 900 degrees. But it's just a little detail I don't really mind

Plus, I've heard a lot of complaints about the truck physics. But, if they are anything like the ones in Hard Truck 2, they'll be pretty good in my oppinion, and they sure kick ass comparing to the 18 WoS series.

Just my 2 cents from looking at the videos.

Wait what? You mean that the steering wheel in the game doesn't turn 900°? That's terrible! It's annoying as hell if the the steering wheel in the game isn't in sync with the actual steering wheel.

I don't really mind there not being any traffic lights. they're not really needed for the most part. but speed limit signs are sorely missing. what are the speed limits? 60? 80? on freeway? through small towns? I have no idea. they should add speed limit signs immediatly and just save up a bunch of the other stuff I'd like to see in there for an expansion. new sounds, detailed background scenery and buildings, more smaller roads inside and around towns, traffic lights, maybe some new locations and a couple more trucks. this would be an a-ok smaller expansion. make it 10 dollars and release it as soon as possible right after the international release.

yeah, the truck physics are great. the crash physics aren't that great and the collisions are really weird especially with other vehicles. but if you actually play the game without pretending it's carmageddon or something it should be fine. look at it this way, if you drive like an idiot you deserve to have the game rain crap down around you. hehe.
