Players have been waiting for it for years and here it is, convoy mode is finally here. And without waiting too long, we tested it this afternoon. The gaming experience was very satisfying. The multiplayer mode on ATS (and later on ETS 2) is not hosted externally, and it is indeed a player that acts as a server. He becomes the host of the game. Private party with friends or public cYou choose, in both cases the capacity will be 2 players maximum.
Now it's easy to create a convoy, invite your friends and take a mission. Other players will be able to have a mission identical to yours in 1 click. Progress is on the other hand individual and there is no company account.
To further increase the realism, the developers added a CB radio. By pressing the X, you can chat with your colleagues, a voice effect has been added to the audio to make the radio as realistic as possible. You may even hear the end beep. A system similar to what we can see on Trucker MP.
There is only one thing left for you to do to test this new game mode in beta status: On Steam, right-click on the game to display the "properties". Go to the beta tab and activate the version " public_beta 1.41 ". Good road !
