Wyoming Discussion Thread

So, is Wyoming prominent on the world map when checking cargo?

[harishw8r]

No, but the text “Wyoming” is there on the map now. So once 1.41 is out of beta, it should be grayed.

I honestly expect it to be grayed before beta ends. 1.41 should be the compatibility update for Wyoming. Its just a matter of time before it goes gray. I wouldn't worry to much about all this. Wyoming blogs are coming in weekly. That's your sign that its coming. But apparently, its needs some tightening up before all that other stuff can be seen. Game play videos are cool but I am starting to like it when they stream play instead. Patrik started that with Colorado. Stream gameplay before release was affective. Prior to Colorado, we got game play streams from SCS after the dlc released. They show a portion of the map as a nice teaser and this promotes the dlc before the map is released imo. Not to mention, in the SCS MP stream a couple of weeks ago, it was said that they might try to do streams in MP now.

I hope like most probably we get the Yellowstone blog next to eliminate lingering fears followed i guess by Cheyenne.

[flight50]

It could be the other way around too. Cheyenne first. We know for sure Cheyenne will be there so it can really come whenever. But what we don't know is YS, Cody, US-85 and if we get a livestock trailer. Those are what I'm worried about. Cheyennes is good. We can see that in the game already.

Is there any advantage to putting Wyoming in 1.41? Likewise, is there any disadvantage to keeping 1.41 the Convoy and California phase 1 update and then having Wyoming be 1.42 even with little time between them?

[Bedavd]

One disadvantage I can think of is that SCS likes to keep ATS and ETS2 updated at the same time, so ETS2 would likely also have to be updated to 1.42 at the Wyoming release. That might not be ideal to make an entirely new version of the game just for a small update, particularly if ETS2 isn't getting a new major DLC out of it as ATS would.

I noticed that the Wyoming License Plates are spawning on parked and AI vehicles in the accessible parts of Wyoming. It doesn't look like the Wyoming Highway Patrol has been added yet though.

We're getting weekly blogs for Wyoming now, I'm very sure that Wyoming is coming sometime in July.

@flight50 sorry there I wasn’t suggesting we were waiting for a Cheyenne blog to confirm it’s in. We already know it is. With, in my opinion very little left to show I was merely conveying the blogs that I think will hopefully come next.

[flight50]

Oh I understood you my friend. I was just saying we knew it would come eventually. Its is a blog we are expecting no matter what so its automatically in. Its just a matter of when it comes. I have a hunch, its the next Wyoming blog or next week's blog. Which every comes first. Like you said, there is little left to show. At least from what SCS is wanting to show.

I'm not sure if I want to see gameplay videos this go around but I'm sure I'd at least listen to the stream in the background as I work. I might be able to hold out on actually watching any of Wyoming til it releases. They just might be showing all the good stuff already. Wyoming should be a wide open desolate state so if the gameplay video show this, I can just wait to experience it on my own.
