DAF XG/XG+ 2021 DLC INTEGRATION?

#1 Post by apsikens » 21 Jun 2021 07:41

Hello, dear ETS2 Community,

I wondered what's your opinion about the new DAF Truck and if you know something about a tuning DLC for it. Will the Truck be integrated into the already existing XF Tuning Pack, or will there be an extra DLC made just for this type of truck?

Best Regards,

I figured they'd want to add the other chassis options and the XF first before they'd even consider making parts compatible with the new XG[+]/F.
I don't see why they'd add another DLC, they could just as well morph it into XF / XG tuning pack.

Or community can just make better looking parts themselves)

If the actual DAF tuning pack would be a best seller and the work to adapt their content to new trucks would be high (SCS had to redo form scratch lots of parts); then chances are high that in the future there would be a second tuning pack. Otherwise, it could happen that DLC ended being a net loss of money (and if that happens, don't expect them to keep doing that kind of DLCs)

If the actual DAF tuning pack is owned by a low % of players, then chances are high it will be upgraded to include new trucks as an incentive for more people to acquire it.

None of those you mention need to be adapted to the geometry of a whole different 3D model of a truck.

Most likely to be updated DAF Tuning Pack and added tuning parts for XG and XG+ also how it happened with Griffin Pack for Scania NextGen. But so far this is a new truck, which has not yet been shown to reporters and has not yet gone on sale. I don't think that tuning parts have already been made for him, or this is a condition of the manufacturer that within a certain time the truck must be presented in the game clean. Presumably, the tuning may appear at the end of the year, when the 6x2, 6x4 chassis and XF will be added.

but scs makes their own customizing parts, which doesnt follow real life.

@Nick2332f Why? Some of the tuning parts correspond to those in reality. I mean painted elements chrome accesoires.

Actually all (most) tuning DLC parts are based on real life designs for specific truck.
As for the new DAF tuning, as Anna said, the truck needs to be completed first, then SCS can think about tuning. Personally I would prefer a separate DLC with new parts. The old dlc is...old and works for old trucks. New DAF is a lot more futuristic and most of the old DLC parts would look stupid on it imo.
The smallest details always make the biggest difference.

some, most are missing and are their own, like in the volvo dlc. What is annoying is that volvo dlc is good, mercedes dlc sucks, it is missing so many things.
