Good chance it releases tomorrow. Alex and Nemiro just might get to call Pavel and ask. Lol. If not released tomorrow, we'll get a release date tomorrow perhaps. I don'tsee the point in steaming just to prolong us going without. I'll need to somehow find some time to play ATS if this releases for this weekend.

The DLC might be released at any time of the day, need not necessarily be after the steam. I would prefer a release before the stream though.

It's a quick release, maybe to stop the hype about a possible New VNL release alongside. :D ;)

No way the VNL is coming today (not unless the truck is a part of the VC DLC and they decide it to drop it without teasing). But there’s a good chance that we get some progress update on that during the stream, if they happen to talk about ‘Volvo’ or ‘Volvo group’. Even if we get that it would be huge news.

I’m all hyped up for the release. Wallet balance? Check. Trucks with lowboy trailers? Check. Have enough time to explore? Workin’ on it.

Looking forward to this release quite a lot. We really need more cargo for our flatbeds and lowboys. Every little bit helps, especially when it comes with an official license.

As much as i like new cargos isn't this DLC going to be pretty much the same as what we already have, wheel loader, excavator, roller and a couple of new ones. My #1 reason for wanting this is the branding. I hate seeing those multicoloured tractors and when SCS had to reskin there heavy machine loads, that too was disappointing although understandable.

What are you all on about? The DLC doesn't even have a Steam page yet, not even with TBA release date. And it's not like they planned it to be a surprise release like FM - there's a blog about it. Unless they themselves don't know what they're doing, I'd say wait at least for the Steam page to appear before expecting a release.

Maybe there is no Steam page because it's going to be a free DLC (like trucks). :D :D :D ;)

Yep and you know this, lol. I'll take anything we can get to add to the cargo roster. I hope the cargo is assigned accordingly. As in pick up and drop off locations. We may have similar content but licensed is more immersive. Lots of people would can relate better to real name branding. That is the bonus right there. If I could pay for everything licensed/branded, I would. Not everyone plays with mods or has a desire. Official SCS content is made to work for the game and the developer keeps up with the updates. I'll take that vs waiting for mod updates anyday.

@J. Random. We don't need a Steam page just for it to release today. When the forestry pack released, it dropped out of nowhere with Washington. Once the dlc is released, it can get a Steam page then. A Steam page reveals the dlc before SCS can present it. That won't happen. Same with all the other releases they do on a stream. They tell us about it, then make the Steam page and release it. Its too early for the Steam page.
