Some publishers should follow suit. It's been 2421 days - that's 6 years, 7 months and 18 days - since ETS 2 was created. Despite this, SCS software has released an update of 2.2 GB. It brings new content, but not only, since the developers have further improved the physics and gameplay. Thanks to this update, ETS 2, and its brother ATS, consolidates its position as the leader in heavy vehicle driving simulation.
Even more developed cards
Sardinia is one of the two great maps improved by 1.35. “Most of those who helped us in the Experimental Beta were delighted to see how our map designers managed to squeeze into such a small island,” the developers congratulate.
Another vast region that has undergone a major overhaul: Germany. There are over 2 kilometers of new and rebuilt roads in the game, two completely new highways, updated gas stations, new landmarks and much more. For more info on the SCS blog.
In addition, two new roads in France (one in the base game and one in the expansion of the “Vive La France” map), an improved signage system in Scandinavia and a number of jobs in the transport sector. specials anywhere on the map, including regions beyond the Baltic Sea.
Trailers alone would be enough to create a full update, but they have been improved in this update 1.35. Krone extendable bed liners, Schwarzmüller trailers (reefer, curtain and log variants), container trailers and logs are now ready to be part of your fleet! You will also see Schwarzmüller trailers on AI trucks.
As in American Truck Simulator, new features include trailer settings (extendable trailers, sliding tandems), new wiper settings, and the ability to copy truck / trailer configurations. And to appeal to fans of "Long Vehicle" signs, double trailers are now authorized in the Netherlands and Germany.
Other general new features include the ability to use your own trailers for external contracts (World of Trucks jobs) and experimental support for DX11.
Other more modest improvements include some of the player suggestions. You can hire a massive number of new drivers for your business, localized bilingual map display, and the ability to shop for garages online, without the need to explore the city.
There is now a reworked cab suspension, official support for Razer Chroma and the Tobii Eye Tracker 4C, input improvements and an option for emergency refueling. Thanks to all this, the user interface had to change significantly; but according to the feedback from the Experimental Beta, you shouldn't have any issues getting back on track quickly.
