more ways to spend income?

#1 Post by Jaikstheuggle » 09 Apr 2017 17:21

Ive been giving it some thought and i came to the conclusion that this game (ETS2 and ATS) need more optional ways to spend income. In a way that it doesnt obstruct the income growth of a starting player. As of now (lvl 51 in my case) Money is nolonger an issue and keeps flooding in like a tidal wave, with no penalties diminishing my budget.
Anything will do , as costs as a truckdriver , or spenditure for the chauffeurs in other ways. Or even very optional in whatever way unrelated to the actual delivery. With money coming in by the 400.000 euros each delivery within your trucking empire it makes the game pointless other then have a relaxing hour trucking. Some form of challenge keeps the interest of most players going, even in the ATS with the few states , where after driving the same roads over and over , the fun slips away.
your thoughts and ideas?

Economical mods. ;) If you have the Steam version, simply visit the Steam workshop for ETS2.

I just write the totals to a spreadsheet I have, total them up with previous information in the spreadsheet, save it and start over.

I use a modified economy mod that has the following items:
- my remuneration is 5 euro/km (enough to feel like I gain something)
- my drivers remuneration is 4 euro/km (in this way they won't fill in excessively my pockets)
- fines are very high, like 1.000 euro for red light and 5.000 for accidents, but smaller for speeding, only 200 euro :mrgreen: (paying more attention to traffic rules and other drivers)
besides I constantly buy new garages from places I travel and add one single truck with one driver in each. when it happen to have too much money (more than a million) then is time for a small trick: I add one small modification in the economy mod, a one million fine for crossing on red light, I get fined once, and then switch back.
still I agree that we should be allowed to spend money on other things like nice houses in beautiful places, Ai traffic cars to place in some special garages like in showrooms and then because it's a game and can do whatever I want, I would also spend money on prostitutes that we could collect from the local roads :lol: would be nice to clear my pockets in a better way than being excessively fined, so should be expensive enough :twisted: also should be at least as sexy as Yasemine from SiSL pack :lol: to take her place in my truck ;)

Scs software has implemented mods into the game as part of the game before. this basicly means its easier to have it implemented , instead of a broken game every update...
Just saying..
