New Mexico Discussion Thread

Anxious to have this DLC and look forward to see what comes next (Pacific Northwest?). I'm somewhat new to the scene with the purchase of ETS2 and ATS back in mid July. To date I've purchased all of the DLC's for both games outside of a few paint packages. Big fan of ProMods and other maps users have created. In these last two months I'm just shy of 250 hours of playing time in ETS2 and have really just started with ATS (about 30 hours of playing time). As much as I love ETS2 being an American I'm really getting into ATS because its much more familiar to me. I know the cities and towns and can drive without the GPS - not possible yet in Europe. All of this does lead to a little sadness as I do dream of getting a load in Boston and making a run to San Diego or Seattle - hopefully there is a plan to make this a reality at some point. New Mexico will be a day one purchase for me

I am looking at this map twice a week since February. Add to that a bit Google Earth. I guess when it gets released I can drive from Las Cruces to Santa Fe with eyes closed.

Holy cow arcadeforest, 250 hrs. You have been driving your tail off, lol. I joined in July 2016. I love the big rigs as well, but I haven't put in that kind of time. I believe I have around 80 hrs for each title and that's dating back to my purchase date. I gotta catch up. I too thought ET2 was cool for it was different. But I agree that ATS is more familiar to an American. Not just the roads, but the traffic laws, traffic culture and cities. I can't wait til more of the map is filled out. ATS will be my default again once NM drops. However, importing American style cabovers in ATS makes if much easier for me to cope with in ET2. ET2 does hold me over will ATS is being developed.

422hrs ATS (I did just under 34hrs in 4 days when NM went into testing.)

2537hrs ETS2.

I think you should be docked 50hrs per cancelled delivery.

Those are almost all the result of mod problems lol.

[Voltaire1971]

2537hrs ETS2.

I have a total for ETS / ATS of maybe 700 hours.

[Blackspots]

I have some 450 hours in ETS2 and 800+ in ATS. About half of that in ATS is in the map editor.
