Azov! Thanks for the tips! New to the game, and was completely ignoring vehicles I found less-than-optimal, but getting frustrated with lack of cashflow for upgrades as they came. Your 'avoid hoarding, sell vehicles' suggestion helps a TON.
Thanks & glad to be of help! Yeah that's the thing, most vehicles & upgrades you find in this game are junk unless you want to try them for aesthetic reasons (you are a fan of the vehicle in real life etc.) Much, if not most, of the cash you earn comes not as straight cash but in the form of sellable vehicles & upgrades. It's kinda weird but once you learn it the game becomes super easy lol
Asov! Thank you for the tips. I found myself grinding the XP in the same way you mentioned already; however, I never thought to sell upgrades I wasn’t using and not hoarding trucks. So, you’ve definitely helped my cash! I’m about 30 hours into the game, and your tips will help a ton.
Azov, great tips. only level 4-5. Was looking for a way to progress faster for tires and truck parts. loving the game. bought it 2 years ago but didnt understand it very well so i stopped playing. came back to it last week and its actually really fun and not as hard as i thought it was. hope all is well
When you go into a new map your first order of business should be unlocking towers and finding all the trucks and upgrades, and the next thing you should do is clear all the road blocks and build all the bridges. This will make the harder quests much easier to complete
Just hit level 6 and I’ve been doing everything in Michigan so far. I’ve been using the starter Chevy as my scout and the International off-road truck I unlocked at level 2 and those two trucks get everything done for me with ease so far. This game kicks ass!
I recomend going to North Port Alaska and completing the drowned hummer task. Co.pleting it gives your the hummer H2 and it is the best little scout car. It kicks ass and it is more powerful, more durable, more fuel efficient than the chevorlet truck. The hummer is a beast
Azov! I started playing last week and totally agree with all you said here. I did jump to other maps and used Maprunner to help get a little better big truck to hold off the frustration of the mud - but no mods or cheats. I enjoy completing the missions and clearing the roads as needed. Thanks for the tips!
I tried other guides and they were all about exploiting mechanics to get OP trucks which would kill the progression. This guide is the best by a long shot.
Azov! I played this game a lot at day1 and now I am a returning player. I would have never imagined I could sell the parts! I knew about trailers and trucks but not the parts! thank you!
Stellar video. Been playing casually for a long time and had no idea! Just sold four stock bumpers and three RWD transmissions for one of my trucks and got that logging trailer I've been grinding for. Totally changed the game for me. Azov.
Azov. Thanks man. There are so many ‘cheat’ videos out there. I have done well to avoid them so far and subscribe to your advice. I’m a new player and around 10hrs in and really enjoying the vanilla experience. I been hoarding trucks and upgrades so will definitely use your advice to sell and by back if I want them in future. Cheers! 👍🏻
Good video man. Very clear and helpful as well. I kind of “ruined” my first play trough… I did clear Michigan and last region in Michigan I bought few dlc packs. First it was super cool and trucks was awesome. Then I realized that I have few trucks on field and almost I million cash. I was able to buy anything I wanted.. and pretty much quickly get bored. Then I start new game plus and did change only two thing: gasoline cost 2 times more and no dlc truck, and I liked more now..👍
You know, i just clicked out of curiosity, since i've been playing at my own pace, slowly unlocking the watchtowers then doing the bridges and fixing up the infrastructure and then done the contract missions, as you explore you find new vehicles (like the scout 800 on Michigan), since first off you should ignore the tutorial and in case you got dlcs then go to new game plus and make them buyable instead of being in your garage. that will skip the tutorial too, then go fix up the fleetstar with the utility trailer if you're playing on hard if not then just recall it, start unlocking the nearby towers with the chevvy, stock as it is should do most of them, you don't really need to upgrade your vehicles for black water besides some things here and there like the engageble AWD for the Fleetstar, that helps a TON with getting around. Once you find the Scout 800 you can just sell your old chevvy for some extra cash witch you'll spend getting a crane for that fleetstar, and once you find the GMC, recall it and take that flatbed off because the GMC is not that good and give it to the fleetstar instead, now you can sell or keep that GMC it does not really matter, it's up to you but since you got most watch towers, you should fix up the bridges and clear off the road of obstacles and you're set for black water, you finish it up and just go to the getaway point to unlock the next area. You're going to get quite a bunch of vehicles on Michigan so you shouldn't but things right off the bat so yeah enjoy!
Azov! This was really great advice. The game is a refreshing break from typical games that involve grinding....needed to be reminded that this was about the journey and discovery.
Nice video. well put together. I think you should have added in the trailer section, that leaving vehicles that are discovered, or stuck on the map, might be left on the map. Recovering vehicles too much can drag the game down quickly. Leaving vehicles out on the map can help you to get yourself unstuck or give help, need more fuel, etc. This is usually a lot more useful for self-help. Then when you clear the map, you can recover everything you want, before you leave the map or region. A good way to move in seemingly hard areas (MUD/SNOW/BOGS), is to tow another track behind you. This can help push you through slow areas that bog you down so much, it seems you can move anymore. Just turn on the truck you are towing "C" and it can help push you that little bit to get you through and on your merry way.
Azov! Thanks for the video! I got off on a bad start by skipping to Alaska right away because of the tutorial. But I will be going back to the first map and start clearing there and go from there. Thanks for video
I’ve been looking forward to another snowrunner video from you. Glad to see it. You know the best thing I can say for hard mode summed up, don’t buy anything lol. Scout and scavenge as much as you can. By the time I finished Alaska on hard I had way over 300k and I was in the high 20s in level.
Loved this video. thanks for the tips! Azov bro! this game is so fuckin' hard, but i love it. So far it's more mud runner, than snow runner.... also stuck on lvl 3. will apply your tips.
Azov Tayga and a dlc Jeep from the start for me personally have worked out very well. I've just started playing the game a few weeks ago and agree with you to just start out small and remember to enjoy the experience. Sure the game will frustrate you from time to time but you'll also learn a lot in the process. Thanks for the video it was very reassuring.
Good advices about money. The one thing I would add is that you should try to maximize runs as much as you can. Meaning that don't go from point A to B with a few cargos. Try to combine different mission cargos by towing an extra trailer or hooking a cargo with a crane. While the game wasn't exactly designed to do these kind of crazy tricks, it will definitely help you progressing faster and avoid a few frustrations down the line.
good advice to get you going but if you are like me ang get bored/want more of a challenge then try New Game+ and set the rules so you don't get back all of your money when selling trucks, have to pay for fuel. no recovery to garage etc then you'll really have to manage your game differently, for example i had to spend 48k to fill up a couple of fuel trucks just in preparation for the upcoming jobs, scavenging fuel from vehicles before you sell them, keeping the engine off on winched vehicles to save its fuel etc all adds to the challenge
Azov! Solid Tips/Tricks video. However, i have a very serious question/dilemma to pose to you; What advice would you give to someone who _right-out-of-the-gate_ downloaded a bunch of really OP mods like the the MAXX Trucks Pack, MAXX Scouts Pack, GGMS Free Money Trucks, etc, etc years ago when the game first came out. They then went to play the hell out the game, 100% every single map in every region (that they had at the time), bought all the DLC(even in advance, ahead of time), but then ran out of steam sometime shortly after beating all of Michigan/Alaska/Tamyr/Kola/Amur and stopped playing the game for 3 years, despite still buying all the DLC. Now, let's say this "hypothetical" person has come back to Snowrunner, and they still love the game, and they have all these new regions to play through, but they actually want to be challenged by the game, but find that loading straight into hard mode with no mods is just _waaaayyyyy_ to fuckin' much? And also, what if this person has a legitimately crippling addiction to over-modding the holy hell out of every game they own, to the point where they have 3.5x the filesize of Snowrunner atrtached to the game in mods, and they just can't stop, because this is what they do with every game? Like playing Rimworld (~6GB filesize total) with 64GB of mods attached to it? TL;DR: Help! What do i do to both satiate my uncontrollable lust for more trucks and more mods and more addons for trucks, while also providing some challenge so the game isn't basically playing it's self? Any tips for a proper NG+ setup that would help with this? Where i could earn a shit-ton of cash very quickly so i can fill the parking lot of every garage with a couple dozen vehicles to play with, but also still have some challenge left in the game? _TL:DR:TL;DR:_ *How the hell* do you teach your 30 year old *mod-addicted* brain ( at least _some_ ) self control and just play the god damn game the _way it's meant_ to be played?
Azov I had figured out to sell unused trailers, but embarrassingly didn't see that I wasn't losing money reselling stuff nor did I think to sell extra parts. I completed everything in mud runner n was waiting for snowrunner. Ur right! I wish the tutorial would have been clearer above selling thx
(Azov) thanks for the video, just started playing, have maybe 10hrs into the game and started to get frustrated because I'm finding it difficult to get enough money for upgrades for new missions. But from your video, I found out what I wanted to know, that I can sell trailers I find and am not using or trucks that are not needed, and buy them back later. Thanks :-)
Love this vid. Thanks for supporting vanilla players, though I use a single truck mod to start out with, bc I struggled to the point of frustration on my first go. To this day I don't enjoy using the first Chevy.
It's hard to enjoy scouts that use scout tires (if you are not the extremely patient type 😆). Try the Loadstar ("International Loadstar 1700") if you haven't already discovered it. You can also go to the garage in Tamayr and buy the the YAR 87 after reaching player level 10.
Im not even sure if i can do a mod on ps4, but i have given up on this game so many times since it came out. I would go to Alaska and couldn't figure out how to get my truck back to michigan. Last week a bunch of people on reddit helped me learn about the "retain" . Now i can't stop playing and i have my chevy loaded out with huge mud tires and can go anywhere in michigan now with it!! Absolutely love the chevy, got the scout800 and it looks so weak compared to my chevy i dont even wanna use it🤣🤣. Money is slow coming in but i am enjoying the hell outta this game now!!
@@jasonboehringer4583 i wanna go give alaska a try but since i decked out my chevy ive just been scouting michigan, getting used to the controls. Im loving the hell outta this now. I wont even turn it on if i dont have at least 2 hours to kill🤣🤣
Azov! You have to learn how to play by yourself, there many tips that should be available at the beginning. But once you start to now how to play, it becomes an addiction 😁
I'm 20 hrs in and I havet even finished the first area of the first map. The game is so hard and I even modded my save file to level 6 so I could buy decent tires. If I hadn't modded to level 6, I don't think I would have gotten anything done at all yet, the map is just too impassable until you rebuild some bridges
Axov is too unstable for my crappy driving. Close the game upon flipping and it might give you a chance to reload the last checkpoint rathwr than have to rescue a truck. Still takes time but depends on whats more important to you.
People are simply becoming increasingly more weak in every way conceivable. Thank you so much for this video... Life can be unreasonably harsh so you might as well practice on a game.
I done one contract with mod Tatra 815 8x8 but it was too easy and now I am fighting without mods. I just wish more addons (no mods) for scouts, especially for the International Loadstar 1700, like a fuel carrier and spear parts on the roof, that would be great
Yeah, I think it was a bad decision for them to put the T815 as a Yearly Pass truck, considering that those appear automatically & for free in your Truck Storage when you start. T815 is ridiculously strong for a free truck.
Azov. Been playing this since Mudrunner. Never realised about the x1, x2 etc. for the upgrades (Do I feel dumb!) . Going to do a spring clean on the gear, right now 🤭
'Azov' Yeah, great video to learn how to make the grind a bit easier... I actually found out about the selling of trucks/trailers/oarts by accident. But it's kinda cool. I'm not much for using mods, especially overpowered mods. The only mods i really use that are OP is the recovery vehicles, ie the IX3880 Heavy Rotator, and the IX light wrecker. I find it more fun and realistic to go fetch a wrecked or disabled vehicle with an actual recovery vehicle. I also like to use the "realistic mud and vehicle weight" mod. It balences out the vehicles in my opinion. OP vehicles become a little less powerful, and "vanilla" vehicles become a bit more capable... at least from my experience... so far...
Wow, I wish I watched this video when I first started. Lots of great advice here, but I don't understand the need to go through the maps in order. The tutorial forces you to go to Alaska. There's a lot of low hanging fruit there. Might as well pick some before going back to Michigan.
Azov! I so wish that I watched this like... 40h of playtime ago. I'm torn between keep on going (default mode), or create a custom game that is close to hard mode. Cheats, sleazes kind of kill the fun for me. Selling at full cost feels like cheese, but your advice is super fair.
Maybe they only added this to hard mode but dident they change it so that when your selling a truck your only getting about 80% of its purchase price? Or maybe this video was made before that change.
I've been playing with the Max Trucks and Max Scouts pack which pretty much makes upgrades and money pointless in the game, I can literally haul a full 8 cargo trailer with another heavy truck with an 8 cargo trailer full with metal beams up a mountain with like 50% throttle, it's a joke. It has been very fun because I can complete all missions and tasks with ease but now I'm starting to regret it because I feel like I'm missing out on a really rewarding aspect of the game. I'm 98% done with Michigan and I'm around 50% through with Alaska.
Hi , nice tips , I play on PS4 pro. Must try them . But I don’t understand why the drop points of contest missions appear on local map but disappear while doing the mission🤔
Azov! Thanks for the tips! New to the game, and was completely ignoring vehicles I found less-than-optimal, but getting frustrated with lack of cashflow for upgrades as they came. Your 'avoid hoarding, sell vehicles' suggestion helps a TON.

Azov.... 2yrs later and this video is still educational to a new(ish) player. Thank you 🙏🏻
as someone who’s already beat the game with all contracts completed I still love coming back to new tutorials to learn something new, thank you
Asov! Thank you for the tips. I found myself grinding the XP in the same way you mentioned already; however, I never thought to sell upgrades I wasn’t using and not hoarding trucks. So, you’ve definitely helped my cash! I’m about 30 hours into the game, and your tips will help a ton.

Az. If you want to remove cargo from a trailer, but don't have a crane, you can use your winch to flip the trailer over and back.
Just hit level 6 and I’ve been doing everything in Michigan so far. I’ve been using the starter Chevy as my scout and the International off-road truck I unlocked at level 2 and those two trucks get everything done for me with ease so far. This game kicks ass!
I recommend finding the scout 800 from first michigan map, its awesome and much more enjoyable than the chevy at the start
I recomend going to North Port Alaska and completing the drowned hummer task. Co.pleting it gives your the hummer H2 and it is the best little scout car. It kicks ass and it is more powerful, more durable, more fuel efficient than the chevorlet truck. The hummer is a beast

Thanks. I didn't know about buying and selling for the same price at any time. No depreciation. F'in awesome
yeha no depreciation is the phase I should have used lmao

Yeah - people are so used to grinding that when they come to this game they automatically assume there isn't another way.

Azov! Thanks mate, I was oblivious to the money tips and it will definitely open up a new side to the game now
Man, I went through like 20 videos looking for the info here. Thank you.
I’ve been looking forward to another snowrunner video from you. Glad to see it. You know the best thing I can say for hard mode summed up, don’t buy anything lol. Scout and scavenge as much as you can. By the time I finished Alaska on hard I had way over 300k and I was in the high 20s in level.
Great Azov video! One of the things I stress to new players is this game gives you the freedom to play it any way you want.
Azov! Great tips as I had gone too far too fast and was getting bogged down. Now im off to sell all the clutter I've collected! TY
Azov, amazing video! Definitely helped out a lot!
Azov!!!!! Good video. Very informative. Thank-you!
Loved this video. thanks for the tips! Azov bro!
this game is so fuckin' hard, but i love it. So far it's more mud runner, than snow runner.... also stuck on lvl 3. will apply your tips.
Azov Tayga and a dlc Jeep from the start for me personally have worked out very well. I've just started playing the game a few weeks ago and agree with you to just start out small and remember to enjoy the experience. Sure the game will frustrate you from time to time but you'll also learn a lot in the process. Thanks for the video it was very reassuring.

Azov! Great video even now. Thanks for being thorough😀
Azov! As a new player, thanks for the video and tips!
Azov! Thanks for a great guide man 👌
366 hours into this game, no mods, no cheats and I’m still addicted to it
Asov! Really like the slower pace of this game :)
Thanks for the info, Azov!
Azov! Just downloaded the game. Thank you for the insightful well narrated video. 👍

Azov brother! Just starting out. Michigan 3/4 maps 50% cleared. Alaska 3/4 maps 15% cleared.

(Azov) thanks for the video, just started playing, have maybe 10hrs into the game and started to get frustrated because I'm finding it difficult to get enough money for upgrades for new missions. But from your video, I found out what I wanted to know, that I can sell trailers I find and am not using or trucks that are not needed, and buy them back later. Thanks :-)
A very wholesome video. Thank you good sir. I'm gonna start fetching 35 trailers I bought without knowing you can sell them😅
Lol go for it (and see you in 8 years when that's done😆)
Azov! I did first map then jumped to alaska and russia and yes, those were too difficult... but Skandinavia feel is unique and I liked it a lot!
Now this is epic, keep up the good content man!
Azov! That was so well explained and really helped me thanks very much
Azov! Very helpful advice thanks 👍🏽
The biggest thing ive learned is to not he a collector, if you find a better truck than the one you have sell the one you have and its upgrades.
Great video, informative and concise. Love the text on the video good humor.
Glad the text humor 1)worked and 2)covered for my monotone commentary lol
Azov, so that's why everyone is saying Azov 😂, nice one bro. 💯

People are simply becoming increasingly more weak in every way conceivable. Thank you so much for this video... Life can be unreasonably harsh so you might as well practice on a game.
First 30 hours I had no idea you had to manually accept contracts. I was wondering how people were getting so much money on tasks 😂
I done one contract with mod Tatra 815 8x8 but it was too easy and now I am fighting without mods.
I just wish more addons (no mods) for scouts, especially for the International Loadstar 1700, like a fuel carrier and spear parts on the roof, that would be great
Yeah, I think it was a bad decision for them to put the T815 as a Yearly Pass truck, considering that those appear automatically & for free in your Truck Storage when you start. T815 is ridiculously strong for a free truck.
Azov! Thanks for the tips!
Azov. Been playing this since Mudrunner. Never realised about the x1, x2 etc. for the upgrades (Do I feel dumb!) . Going to do a spring clean on the gear, right now 🤭
highway trucks are limited use on certain missions in alaska and michigan.

Yeah, great video to learn how to make the grind a bit easier... I actually found out about the selling of trucks/trailers/oarts by accident. But it's kinda cool.
I'm not much for using mods, especially overpowered mods. The only mods i really use that are OP is the recovery vehicles, ie the IX3880 Heavy Rotator, and the IX light wrecker. I find it more fun and realistic to go fetch a wrecked or disabled vehicle with an actual recovery vehicle.
I also like to use the "realistic mud and vehicle weight" mod. It balences out the vehicles in my opinion. OP vehicles become a little less powerful, and "vanilla" vehicles become a bit more capable... at least from my experience... so far...
Azov, great video man
Im not new but when I first got the game. I spent the entire day, not knowing how to turn all wheel drive on.
Azov :) Very cool guide, thx man
Wow, I wish I watched this video when I first started.
Lots of great advice here, but I don't understand the need to go through the maps in order. The tutorial forces you to go to Alaska. There's a lot of low hanging fruit there. Might as well pick some before going back to Michigan.
Above! Thanks for the advice!
Azov ... Thank you for this!
The video I was looking for. Thanks.
Azov
Azov! I so wish that I watched this like... 40h of playtime ago. I'm torn between keep on going (default mode), or create a custom game that is close to hard mode. Cheats, sleazes kind of kill the fun for me. Selling at full cost feels like cheese, but your advice is super fair.
Azov, great tips! :)
Azov, great advice.
Azov. Did you ever play the old cabelas 4x4 off road adventure games? this feels very similar
When in doubt, Azov brother!
Azov! Thank you so much!
Maybe they only added this to hard mode but dident they change it so that when your selling a truck your only getting about 80% of its purchase price?
Or maybe this video was made before that change.
Azov - great tips thanks
Azov thanks a lot for the tips 😊
Azov to you my friend!
Great video indeed as a beginner myself this thing of you can sell for the price of buy is a huge thing since you can beta test whatever you like.
"beta test" is a great way to put it lol. It's almost funny that the moment you learn to sell all junk you instantly go from being broke to rich AF
Azov. Thank you for the information, much obliged.
Azov, great tips thanks
Azov .. thank you.. great info
Azov! Thanks man.
I've been playing with the Max Trucks and Max Scouts pack which pretty much makes upgrades and money pointless in the game, I can literally haul a full 8 cargo trailer with another heavy truck with an 8 cargo trailer full with metal beams up a mountain with like 50% throttle, it's a joke. It has been very fun because I can complete all missions and tasks with ease but now I'm starting to regret it because I feel like I'm missing out on a really rewarding aspect of the game. I'm 98% done with Michigan and I'm around 50% through with Alaska.
Azov! Great video
Hi , nice tips , I play on PS4 pro. Must try them . But I don’t understand why the drop points of contest missions appear on local map but disappear while doing the mission🤔
azov.. thanks! great video!
