I agree 100%

True, but it's hardly realistic, right? I mean, these days I consider it more of an adventure to FOLLOW GPS (IRL, I mean) than to ignore it :D Sometimes it leads me to... weird places.

@@martinvranovsky7085 it's not realistic, but it's more challenging

I always do that its so fun that way

How is it possible? The roads are closed by the giant Xs, so there's one way only to reach destination.

True...

I've been playing ETS2 since a year after it's initial release, and I still do it the same way as I always have. Taking the longest jobs I can find, with damage reduced as much as o]possible (because that is as close to real as it gets) and driving as fast as I can. I've had people tell me I should do it this way or that way, I always them them that's _your_ way. I believe that if you pay for a game, you should play it however you like. So I do it _my way_...

Is the radio one of the things that make the game more realistic?

@@Bigfoot-px9gj Agreed. As the player, I get to pick and choose what parts I want to be realistic about, and what parts I want to just relax and drive for.

Absolutely don't even try to "GTA" this...

Its one the pipeline

same

Where is the Iceland mod?

@@chriscruzA35O-9OO There isn't an Iceland mod, it's Promods altogether, a map mod that expands far from Europe.

@@0LucaasHow can I download it?

ATS is very fun

And I think there are more differencies then it looks first. For example we can drive in the cities in ATS while in ETS2 we can drive in the industrial districts only. Diving the american trucks is different because we sit between the front and rear wheels while in european trucks above the front wheels. And consider the slightly different traffic rules as well. Note: maybe it is just a feeling by me but in ATS the trucks accelerate slower and the routes are longer somehow, I mean in ETS2 the map, the distances are shorter on the road so you just realized you have reached the next city too soon and the trucks accelerate like a car. As I said it is just a feeling and maybe I am wrong. After all of these I prefer ATS more to play. I think the graphics is better a little considering the shiny crhrome surfaces and paints on the american trucks. Safe driving out there!

@@peterattilakriszt3150 the scale used in ETS2 and ATS are not exactly the same : ETS2 is 1:19 while ATS is 1:20. But you are right it looks like longer in ATS

@@peterattilakriszt3150 The routes in ATS totally are longer. I get 600+ miles hauls with just 2 points spent on long range, in ETS2 you need to max it out completely to get those (1000km+).

True

I'm using it too

Is this mod or original setting?

true but most supported hardware for it is rather expensive

Yeah I think the largest barrier to entry with head tracking software is the sensors needed.

Ill try it

@@vutomy oh..... Good luck man.... And I forgot ine thinfg. If you should make a first garage in Yakutsk, you will drive across an ice deserts...

I've been playing Goba's maps since 1.22, personally I think they've gotten worse since then due to his weird recent tendency to make too harsh hills where you can't get up unless you have completely upgraded mod trucks with over 700HP. For example, just tried his newest last week and chose Ulan-Ude as my garage. My first job was a 40 ton cargo with a basic truck and right outside my garage was a very steep hill. Was stuck after just a few hundred meters and had to cheat to get out. :( But he DOES make very interesting maps otherwise that feel very realistic.

@@cya1no yes, it's a true. Usually I use a free camera to climb, and ONLY an engine brake to climb down

@@user-ls5rr1wg5q Yeah and that is a major problem. When you have to cheat to do the basic thing like moving forward then the creator failed badly. I appreciate his work, he puts a lot of time into it (hell, the distances are in REAL LIFE not 1:19 like normal ets maps!!!), but these are elements that he's fixated upon to an unreasonable degree and that have been present and getting worse since forever. In 1.22 version of his Trucker's Map (I think it was called back then), which was amazing and it drew me in for months, you'd have these hills too, but ONLY on a certain part of the map, once you crossed a river and were in snow-and-ice territory, not before that; but now they're everywhere. I'm now traveling north-west from Ulan-ude and I've hit a series of lake valleys with again insanely steep gradients that follow very sharp turns on which you can't gather any speed cause you almost need to stop to navigate them (plus those turns have "bad camber" as rally drivers call it, so you're lucky if you don't tip over to begin with). I've had to basically fly-cam over 30km of the route cause it was non-stop up and down. Even though I have a 8x8 offroad Kamaz with 1000HP engine, 16 gears and those big tires and am towing an empty log trailer I just can't get up certain hills cause there is not enough friction or the engine can't take 80° inclines. I've enjoyed the rest of the route (still 1700km to go, yikes!), but I do wish the gradients were more realistic and especially more manageable and I've watched plenty of Russian trucker youtubers driving over those very roads (like for example "Volvo on road 138" who is constantly driving around Ulan-Ude, Irkutsk, Chita, etc. and who was basically my inspiration when choosing where to start) to know that hills like that are not used for roads, especially main roads.

Nice tips....

Cannot drive withoyt my G29 or my Trackir 5 with delanclip.

Good setup

Yes I agree. I have Tobii eye Tracker 4C and it is imposible to play without it.

@PC_Modder that's true. But I've had mine for 12 years or more when I did a lot of Lockon Flaming Cliffs before DCS Black Shark and DCS A10 came out originally.

The only problem with TrackIR5 at least for me is the inconsistency of the software. I always have to delete my profile before launching the app, otherwise it will crash and have to force restart my pc

Which one did you buy?

@@vutomy Logitech G920 but withou a shifter, this one is great and you can simply mount it on your desk, i do not want to miss it. it´s a great experience, specially if you where used to mouse and keyboard only... it only feels a bit odd at the beginning, but you get into it quite quickly.

To me pedals and shifter are a must, especially with manual shifting. Doesn't get any more realistic.

@Smiley575 You should try the shifter. It’s a must, after getting it I never wanted to go back.

Thnx for the tip bro...

Thnx for the tip bro...

bro how to start ets2 with open gl ( without steam as i play crackedd version sad emoji)

@@d1mon724 I don’t know, I’m only starting it with steam.

@d1mon724 It is an option in Steam. You should try something like setting button, near to the play option

Nice

Thank u bro

@@C20F changed teams. Now its integrated with the ROTAS team, they are remastering the map little by little

Thnx bro

It depends on mods complementary

@@vutomyyeah

I know man. But i keep on trying and not quitting

Yes. Thnx bro

That's if only you had promods

Yes. When u are using promods

Snowrunner is extreeme.

How can I drive in Iceland?

​@@nyinaing1612you need promods europe

True

Thank bro

Ill try vr in future when i have enough money to buy the headset

How do you use your mouse and keyboard with the glasses on?

@@Eierkneifer69 when playing in VR I use a racing wheel and gear shifter for the most part once driving. As the VR headset doesn't fit snugly over my nose I can peek through and see the keyboard or just push the buttons by feel as its only really the spacebar or the F keys I use. Muscle memory.

Olryt bro

Thnx bro

The problem it doesnt get dark

Because of the Sun of Midnight

Nice

lol yeah my immediate reaction was that I already use my right stick to move the camera around. That is its default function.

I have the buttons on my Thrustmaster wheel programmed for all manner of things, plus I use a Stream Deck from El Gatorade. Beats peering at the keyboard in a darkened room!

Its nice

Enjoy bro

But certainly too much for ETS. A T300 is enough for such a smoothly played game where you don't use much force. I mean, it's not a Rallye game.

That too. U just need to do less map combo

true. majestic

Start new profile

Both of them offer such experience

@@vutomy My question was "which one?" I know both offer a very similar experience but I wanna know which one feels more difficult.

​@@atuljaishyam4261 They both have almost similar hairpin bends. But if you want difficulty, Go with ATS , because it has long nose trucks, so there I'll be difficult while turning them in hairpin bend 👍

if your gonna play without dlc for a while ats is mainly straight highways

Thank u sir

I agree

Yes. Different options.... you can enjoy the game with New MAN. Or classic truck

Its actually a software. You install it directly to the game

Yes. U can

Thnx. Ill try it
