American Truck Simulator |OT| I Have a Semi and a Heavy Load
They're not going to do presales on Steam. I've been wanting to give them my money for months.I have $20 on my Steam account waiting, I keep checking in to see if they put it up for presale but nothing yet. Going to be my new podcast game like ETS 2 was. Here's hoping Vinny does a Quick Look for this!
Ok, this is my new favorite.American Truck Simulator |OT| I Have a Semi and a Heavy Load
I'm going to go with "It's Not Driving, it's Trucking" since it is the tagline in the trailer.
It's the one I like the least precisely because of that. Its a personal preference thing, but when an OT sounds or looks to much like a PR piece it creeps me out a bit.
Will it have TrackIR5 support?

Will it have TrackIR5 support? I spend most of my time in flight sims and suddenly thought that my TIR5 would be awesome in a Truck Simulator...
No pre-ordering. You'll have to wait until launch.

Can you explain this? I feel like this is going over my head.American Truck Simulator |OT| I Have a Semi and a Heavy Load
All over this Day One.
ETS2 is a gem.
Along with Farming Simulator, they compose my Zen Garden of gaming.

Semi can mean both semi truck and partially erect penis, while heavy load can refer to either heavy cargo or an unusually high amount of ejaculate.

I know you're literally explaining it, but this made me laugh so hard.

Are you me?
2 of my favorite games. Probably spent more time on either of those 2 games than any other game.

this is awesome
Ok, this is my new favorite.
Wow, that's a really good one too. I may have to reconsider my favorite now...
Hah, if I use that for the OT then maybe I need to put the explanation in it too! I'm thinking I might just combine my two favorite OT choices and make a combination of them both:
(All This Freedom Gave Me A Semi) + (I Have a Semi and a Heavy Load) =
American Truck Simulator |OT| America gives me both a Semi and a Heavy Load
It kind of is, yeah. Maybe we're trying too hard here.Ugh. I think it sounds tacky and juvenile, tbh.
No offense, newsguy.

It might be a tad tacky but it's an excellent and clever pun considering the nature of the game itself, and I usually think clever OT titles are the best ones. It will certainly raise a few eyebrows and get people to check the thread out, which should help promote the game, and that is pretty much one of the biggest reasons why OT's exist anyway (to garner attention to good games).
To each their own of course.
Being primarily niche & European, the Vehicle Simulation genre has a lineage of being sophisticated and classy affairs. For example, the Train Simulator 2015 opening cinematic.
As the franchise is shifting focus from Europe to the US, childish innuendos as suggested above only propagate the stereotype that Americans are arrogant & boorish.
It simply doesn't sync up with the tone of the genre.

Oh my god. I can't believe this went over my head now. Jesus.Semi can mean both semi truck and partially erect penis, while heavy load can refer to either heavy cargo or an unusually high amount of ejaculate.

PC Gamer review. I hadn't read yet, but I hope that it's not atrocious as their Dirt Rally review.

It's about what I expected... He enjoyed it but complained about the available content. He never does mention the price point and they have it listed as $49 on their page which is wrong obviously.
Good impressions though but it confirms what many of us assumed... It is a re skin for the most part.
As someone who has ETS2 for 3 years and played it for 600+ hours, i have zero interest for ATS. They should've released as DLC to ETS2.
- First, this game has very little content to make a new game. ETS2 had more on it's launch.
- It's absolute re-skin of ETS2 with American roads. No new important game mechanics.
- They couldn't get some of truck licenses. As they said, "gaming industry, for most truck manufacturers, is all unexplored territory". With 2.5m players they already have on Steam only, they would have more chance and truck manufacturers couldn't say "no".
I know, this is Euro Truck Simulator but thanks to the MODs, it's more than that. You can have Iceland and even North Africa with MODs. It would be even more awesome with America being officially added to the game.
Does anybody know if they updated their game engine? The one used In ETS2 is awfully optimized.
Like most of the truck simulators SCS has been making for around 15 years now then. The first one I played was 18 Wheels of Steel American Long Haul (released in 2007 I think) and that's pretty much functionally identical to ETS2. Perhaps more effort could be made to make each new game more distinctive than the last, but I guess there's not much SCS can do to jazz up what is still just a driving simulator, albeit a really good one. ATS is going to priced very reasonably though ($20 - I'm in the UK so I'm guessing it will be around £15 here?) so it's priced like DLC anyway.

I meant, everything except roads are 1:1 same. An American map DLC and proper "official" multiplayer would make ETS2 even more awesome game.
We are adding community features and infrastructure to support implementation of a grand trucking universe with Virtual Trucking Companies and eventually with rich multiplayer.
YES ! Do it best oneAmerican Truck Simulator |OT| America, Truck Yeah!
