PACCAR licenses (Kenworth, Peterbilt) and other licenses.

Hi everyone again.

I saw a screenshot on another forum of the official Kenworth W900 here:

and another one:

Why isn't in the game this licensed Kenworth, but a Titan Ventura with an unnecessary Titan logo on the grill? It ruins the whole truck in my opinion. I have the German version of R'n'R, but does the Russian one include the official licensed Kenworth and Peterbilt? Because on some other pics I saw the original Peterbild logo, but in my game it's just a stupid "Hercules". Is there any explanation for that? Didn't SoftLab-Nsk get the licenses from PACCAR (Kenworth, Peterbilt), but only from Daimler AG (Freightliner, Sterling, Western Star)? If so, why are there in-game screenshots of the official licensed ones? Is it a beta version of the game or something?

I hope somebody can help me.

@Matt1314,

I remember reading on RignRoll.com that Kenworth, Peterbuilt, and Mack (possibly others too) pulled their names from the list. It was some time in the middle of last year (I think).

So PACCAR didn't want to give licenses, right? So that not SoftLab-Nsk didn't want to get the licenses from them...

Your guess is as good as mine.

Okay, then that's clear. But I still don't understand why. I would be really glad if somebody would ask my company for a license (if I had a company).

I agree. I would like to see real truck emblems too.

Would be nice, I agree with you that the truck ugly with the word Titan on the grill. I have the russian released version and it has no kenworth or peterbilt in it. So those screen shots have to be from the beta. They didn't release a copy of the game with those real models as far as I know.

@hardtruckisthebest,
See post #2 on this thread, and avoid using profanity on this forum.

Hey. how can i buy Mack Vision or Volvo VNL770? In truck dealer i dont have these trucks available. I started playing. I need to unlock them? Or they are not exisst in the game? I seen Volvo in Traffic but i can't buy it... Help...

I think it already was mentioned in some interviews. Fact is: 2 Macks, 1 Volvo and 1 International (so 4 trucks) were removed. You can't buy them anymore and you won't see them in the traffic.
You just can see those trucks in the background video of the main menu. One of the Macks can be seen in the reparation sector in the service station as symbol for the damages on your truck.
Maybe those trucks will come with an Add-On, but that's not really sure yet.
