Question is, now when states getting smaller, if they do two at a time. If they do that, the second question that follows, will they do two neighbouring states in east-west or north-south direction. Or maybe going crazy just picking two states far away from each other :?

@55sixxx sadly, I doubt it. I honestly don't think the lack of tuning is SCS decision. It feels more like this is a request coming directly from DAF themselves.
The smallest details always make the biggest difference.

Wow, you have a long wait ahead of you regardless of what states they will be. 😄

I've heard that bundling will only happen on the East Coast. So that means there will be a South Dakota DLC and a North Dakota DLC.

That's all just speculation at this point. SCS has never officially said when or if they will do a map DLC with multiple states in it.

To be fair, we all agree that they will have to do it at one point as they go east. (Rhode Island is a pretty small state :p)

That said, we don't know how they will package those

I'd love to see them package some of the Midwest states, and honestly they could have started packaging with oregon/washington, idaho/montana, wyoming/colorado, texas/oklahoma, etc.

They don't seem to acknowledge regions in ATS while focusing exclusively on them in ETS2.

Probably they will package the moment a single state will be small enough that:
- It will have not space for enough content to be worthy the usual price tag
- They will map it so fast that they will need to release 3+ map DLCs per year to keep staff working on something (too many releases isn't good, marketing wise)

With ETS2 they have to pack countries due the nature of Europe geographic distribution, the order they chose to release zones and because they wanted to keep the annual single release people expects. USA shape and internal distribution (and being a new game) allowed them to take a different approach.
