Utah was a bit of a letdown after Washington. It just didn't feel that complete and detailed compared to Washington. I really hope they can even out the quality.

Has anyone been able to find Utility Pole cargo to Faraday substations? Maybe I’m just getting unlucky.

For me it was Idaho, and the nail to the coffin on that was the trailer chain laws (the Turnpike Doubles thing). Colorado (onwards) was a godsend.

Now that you mention it: no I have not. And I have already completed the cruising Montana challenge and delivered to 12 cities. So that should be plenty of time for the cargo system to refresh itself.

I have. I did all three and one for the circuit breakers so far.

I don't think Montana is a let down. It has just enough detail to function as a transitional state, much like Utah or Idaho. We're focusing a lot of attention on it now, because it's both a new map and the edge of the game world. Once we expand further east, I suspect for most of us it'll be nothing more than a state that we pass on the way to Washington or California.

That said, I am by no means downplaying the importance of putting as much effort and quality into each and every state, because each and every one of them can be someone's home. They deserve to have their state represented in all its glory.

Well whatever the case you still get more than enough for the money spent,also I may have been somewhat more critical then I should have,my apologies to the people working on the dlc,when one takes into count the time they were given,they have done an excellent job.....I still think that some parts should have been done better,but like someone said I should not judge the entire map on base of small percentage of it.

You can't.
I find mostly the rushed/unfinished parts are connecting highways...
But you can drive faster and keep looking at the tarmac ;-)

^ Exactly.

The cities and most scenic highways are all really good, but it’s the connecting bits that are lacking polish because they were probably rushed. You can’t avoid them without avoiding the best places in Montana.
