Montana Discussion Thread
Re: Montana Discussion Thread
Cause they didn't have enough manpower to take on two large states at the same time,sadly as a result we have a map dlc with quality that is all over the place.Some parts of the map are setting new standards,others are made on pair with the latest dlcs and large part of the map is pre Idaho quality,not to mention that some parts of the map have a base map flavour.And that is why I can't make up my mind about it,all I know that this is a first time that I am finding myself wanting to drive on the older maps rather than staying in Montana.

Re: Montana Discussion Thread
Montana didnt have less people working on it then Wyoming or Colorado had, Texas is made by different people that concentrate on it for 2 years already whil3 2 other map teams do the other states and a few people do the rework when time allows it

Re: Montana Discussion Thread
Base map flavour? Where? I recently drove through Nevada and really nothing comes close to that bad level of scenery in Montana.
Re: Montana Discussion Thread
Then maybe map was rushed,maybe the initial plans were different but for some reasons it was released sooner than it should have,all I know that overall I am disappointed to be honest.xXCARL1992Xx wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022 14:41 Montana didnt have less people working on it then Wyoming or Colorado had, Texas is made by different people that concentrate on it for 2 years already whil3 2 other map teams do the other states and a few people do the rework when time allows it
Some of the cities are with the quality of the base map,Helena and Laurel for example.Scenery along some parts of the I-15 and I-94,same can be said and for some parts of the smaller roads.killingjoke28336 wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022 14:56 Base map flavour?

Re: Montana Discussion Thread
I just don't see it with the scenery of I-15 and I-94, especially the I-15 I find amazing.
Helena I agree, it really looks unfinished and just bland and kind of rushed. Laurel is a really small town in reality so I don't expect much to see there apart from the railroad station. But the refinery in Laurel looks really great at night you should check it out.

@saur44l You're impossible to please then. If you are disappointed in Montana, you are going to hate the rest of the Great Plain states. I advise don't even buy them. Montana was accelerated yes. Pavel stated this as he already explained why. But what we got is still are really good dlc. You can always go into the editor and make it better for your liking though.
My post are only thoughts and ideas. Don't assume it makes ATS.

Re: Montana Discussion Thread
A lot of us said Montana was rushed, and it took only 11 months. That explains it. I really want to see more west-to-east road connection out of Helena. Maybe US-12 from I-90 to Roundup. Its current state makes it look like just an advanced rest stop town. Other than that, as well of US-20 through Rexburg to West YS, and US-89 up to Livingston, I have no complaint. Honestly, I think they could've done US-287 up to Helena by sticking it stealthily directly east of the grade on I-90. It wouldn't be too close to Bozeman.killingjoke28336 wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022 15:25 I just don't see it with the scenery of I-15 and I-94, especially the I-15 I find amazing.

Re: Montana Discussion Thread
Oklahoma will be nicer I think, but in terms of roads. It depends on how Davido maps the state. And besides we get more of I-35. Texas will introduce so many new interstates we haven't seen in ATS forever.flight50 wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022 16:55 @saur44l You're impossible to please then.

Re: Montana Discussion Thread
We already did saw some glimpses of the Great Plains(small parts at least) with Colorado and Wyoming,and they were really nice,the difference in quality for me at least is night and day,take away the parts that I like in Montana and what I have is the worst paid dlc so far for ATS,But once again that is me,I see other people are satisfied and that is ok,you can't please everyone.flight50 wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022 16:55 @saur44l You're impossible to please then.

Just to be clear,I am not saying that every mile of I-15 and I-94 are made with base map quality,only some parts of them.Part of the I-15 going from Idaho Falls to Butte is really nicely done,I have no complains there.Same with I-94.I am not saying that everything is wrong.It is just I have that feeling that more should have be done.killingjoke28336 wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022 15:25 I just don't see it with the scenery of I-15 and I-94, especially the I-15 I find amazing.
