ATS 1.45 speculation

[Marcello Julio]

What a boring open beta. Tiny bit of map, 1 trailer and some small gimmicky feature nobody asked for. Where is the new cargo and new gameplay features?

Well, you apparently lost things. There are new cargos added. Check trailer manage.

I mean...do people really think this is exciting content and enough for a whole game update? This is like so lukewarm its almost cold lol. The bar is so insanely low to the forum, I've never seen a game community this easy to please. This should have been a patch to 1.44. This is so little that tomorrow its onto waiting for 1.46 and more maps for most of us.

Yes. I am excited for this update. Cry about it

thats the update for Montana and you call it lukewarm ? i think you have unrealistic standards what an update should include, because i saw you praising someone for adding unrealistic bumps to a road as if it was the cure for cancer

[JoeAlex23]

I'm VERY excited for Cody/US-14 and ownable tankers. Being part of the "never happy with anything" gang must be tiring at some point

^ If Texas makes it out this year, we are back on track.

We only got Wyoming last year, so we're still 1 DLC behind if we get both Montana and Texas this year.

2021 is a wash because of the team required to do Texas. So we aren't one dlc behind. We can't count 2021 which is why I mentioned we'd be back on track for 2 for 2022.

Definitely kudos for SCS making Cody/US-14. Mad props @Davido. Thank you for reading the Wyoming thread. I look forward to see what more you bring to the table in future dlc's.

Because, you know, thats actually adding to the simulation of the game. Also, unrealistic? Have you ever driven a vehicle on any street in the world beside a gokart track lol.

i have and a normal road does not feel like it kick you out of you seat, what the video definitely showed, this was logging road behaviour, not highway road behaviour, a distinction you clearly cant make it looks like, he himself even admitted it was to crass and just to show that it works

also a method that no sane person would use, or we would have a ton such mod by now, nice "demo" but nothing more, nobody will sit down for days on end to add some random bumps to roads, SCS has to do it procedural so it happens automatic and is truly random and not a repeating bumpfest every 15m

Even though SCS is willing to bring the things that you want, they don't get ready from day to night...

We'll only be back on track if we get 3 DLCs next year. That's how i see it and that's why i'm slowly loosing interest. I'm eagerly waiting for Montana to ignite something in me. Normally with 2 games to follow ATS/ETS2 you were pretty much guaranteed 3 map DLC per year. The past 2 years has been a wash, not blaming SCS completely but taking on Texas this early was IMHO a mistake. The last thing SCS should be doing is slowing down map DLC for ATS and that's exactly what happened by working on Texas.
Next year i expect ATS map devs to go into overdrive and if we don't get at least 3 maps then what's the point having all those map devs.
