- Hi everyone!
In today's video, I'll be going over 10 mistakes that beginner players make in SnowRunner. The purpose of this video is not to make fun of beginner players, but more to teach beginners on what to avoid doing. Let me know in the comments what mistakes you made as a beginner.
Thank you!

Sometimes good looks are worth getting stuck somewhere
I agree I rather look good if I'm stuck in mud or snow
Good point!
@@SHAWNGAMINGHD and I rather have the worst aesthetic but able to plow through mud and snow
Spoken like a man
Oh no I’m stuck! But at least I look fucking sick 😎
One of the biggest mistakes for me is trying to finish the game. Like a race. I like to stretch my route and enjoy every moment in the game. And that's why even as a professional I break some of the rules. It's about trying, experimenting. However, I do heavy jobs with proven machines.
For #8, it's important to remember that for some trucks, the gear ratio restriction that occurs with high-range gear actually limits the uphill speed. I would say that when climbing a steep hill, if the wheels are slipping, shift to a low-range gear; if the wheels aren't slipping but the engine's revs keep dropping, shift to high-range gear, and if the wheels aren't slipping and the engine's power is holding, keep it on auto.
The winching one is incorrect. It winches on to wherever you're pointing. An auto winching is useful in almost every case except whenever you need to winch to a specific spot.
Also you can absolutely auto winch a small tree or even a bush successfully. Pro tip: rapidly tap winch do _not_ hold while full throttle and also flicking between Lo+/Hi gear a few times a second using numeric keypad gear select. Also roll steering full back and forth like Mudrunner. Not hard on pc, not sure if doable on console.
The rapid gear changes have a small chance to break mud rut and the winch stops any rollback while giving a small boost. If you tweak the winch but don't yank, the anchor won't break.
I've pulled out bogged transtars like this with no assistance or hard anchors.
#1 not exactly. It connects the winch according the camera position. It positions to nearest winch point.
#2 depends on map. In some maps you cannot go anywhere if you have the wrong set of tires.
#8 varies from truck to truck. Tatra Force, per example, can climb hills easily on auto with 5th gear. Of course empty (or with no cargo).
The other tips: good ones. #7 is a must.

Great points. Thank you for commenting!
good tips. the one about not putting a saddle on the truck before the store is something I didn't know and been playing this game for years. I always just looked at a mission and figured what trailer I needed before hand and would equip to tow it. this will save some time and let me pick a truck and just go out and then decide what I want to do. Good trick to know.
the problem is if you want to pick up a trailer that is parked somewhere you dont get a saddle, so not getting one is only true when you buy a saddle trailer.
When i leave the garage i try and buy the trailer needed before and it will tell you which saddle you need or when you hit the mission in the options it will also say whats needed.
Thank you for the tips!
You forgot to mention help other people to build your wealth as well
Some you got right. However, choosing a US truck inhibits off road traction as 99% of supposedly off road trucks, US, have highway suspension designed for load bearing & highway speeds, not off road wheel articulation
Using auto going uphill isn't a problem, just tap the clutch & it will drop one gear, sometimes two, at a time
I use selectable AWD approximately 5%, selectable diff lock (trucks also having selectable AWD) about 30%, RWD 65%.
I haven't used winch for self recover in over 3 months (three or four times a year maximum)
Suspension type is more important to traction than any other aspect of a truck. Walking beam type is the best choice
Installing a powerful, high bhp engine will increase wheelspin resulting in loss of traction
All US trucks are tuned for highway use & a higher top speed, meaning the rpm range difference between max torque & max bhp is minimal, causing bhp to kick in when max torque is essential resulting in wheelspin & loss of traction
I don't get trucks trucks stuck, i use the winch as a tow rope for delivering trucks, towed trucks always engine off behind a semi trailer, I don't use scouts,they're poxy, annoying & useless, i use an 8X8 or 10X10 with a 6 slot sideboard semi, invariably overloaded for scouting, my trucks have the basic mud tires they come with, i take every shortcut possible
I spent many years IRL driving ex Soviet trucks in nasty off road conditions, 200 acres of mud, deep ruts, deep water, woods etc for fun as a job perk on farm estates where the owner collected them. Maz, Zil, Ural, Uaz, Luaz, Kraz, Vityaz, Gaz plus an ex RAF Leibherr 12X12 mobile crane everything from a little Luaz upto a Zil 135's (P & ML), Maz 543's 535 & 537's, many off the techniques i was taught work in SR
"with a 6 slot sideboard semi"
Did you mean 5 slots? Or some trailer mod?
Low or no bumpers are controversial-in reality there is axle too, but in SR it seems like some trucks are missing collision models for axles like F-750 showed in video
Thank you for commenting!
After every mention of low bumpers I immediately recall the PITA with the bumper of the Azov 7 :) Too low cab :)
Using soviot trucks in US maps is like a cheat mode. If you are playing mod free game play. Everything become more easy.
The front bumper tip is very useful, I do this a lot as well, but with certain trucks that have exceptionally high ground clearance I'll choose the front bumper I like the most so long as it doesn't hang TOO low. If it cant get over a concrete barrier, that's when I'll choose the highest front bumper
Definitely!
Thnx for the video, I am a beginner, but knew some of these tips and tricks before - although not all of them, especially the one with the saddle and trailer store. And I have to reconsider my choice of suspension for ANK (adjustable) - I like it to have it high all the time tbh, so maybe it's not the best choice to have adjustable, which is very expensive too
Glad my video helped and that you learned some new tricks!
The real question is why would a "pro" be driving over a stump thats 2 or 3ft high? Id question whoever labeled them a pro, at that poiny
Yeah true, but in general it may apply to other obstacles such as rock faces or fallen trees
Good points! I agree with all the points, being a pro myself. You teach good stuff!
I appreciate that!
Thanks i learned some key information i have done also 👍
Okey this was tips that i already knew, but still good.
the one with choosing your saddle makes sense unless your like me ingame. if its not a mission trailer i go with high saddle everytime i have a fav trailer i use for most transport tasks. find your trailer that works best for your rigs and driving style. good balance between capacity stability and ride height makes a huge difference
That's definitely true, I usually use my personal favourite (sideboard semi) for most missions.
You forgot to mention some trucks have hitboxes that are bigger than the visible part. If you definetly "hang" somewhere then you need to accept that a diffrent route is necessary, eaven if it would visually "fit"
Good point! Thank you for commenting.
I love this game like crazy
It's a lot of fun!
1# keeping momentum and not stop in muddy area. And using auto winch in 1st person view. That way you can choose by looking, which what winch point you are winching.
Thank you for commenting!
There's a point of view that a momentum in SR doesn't help really... Maybe even SR punishes for trying to make use of it...
Depends. If it's deep soft mud and you send it probs just dig a huge hole burying the nose.
On snow and ice crusted mud rolling fast in hi or lo+ can get you over it before it breaks keeping fuel efficiency and speed high - load and equipment allowing of course.
Around light mud and uneven dirt/stones high speed can make you 'skim' over the terrain, again high speed and efficiency as long as you can control it. This also works for rushing obstacles, using momentum to crest over something you might have to crawl over instead.
All the runner games reward high speed moves, where possible. Sometimes hi or lo+ diff lock is better than lo AWD.
A pro can drive, so the stability is not a concern. I wouldn't lie I never rolled the Mk38, but I do it very rarely. Yes, in some places it is psysically impossible for it not to tip over, but you usually can either fly over them at high speed while steering downhill or assist yourself with winch. And those places are rare and always have some play around.
Yeah that's true, still have to be careful in some spots though :)
oh shit I must be a pro as I knew them all xD
All good beginner tips though!
at this point i think is logical and just use common sense
Good information I’ve made everyone of these mistakes still do after 100 hours I’m learning lol 😂
Glad it was helpful!
One thing a hate the most is not having the ability to recover the trailer with the vehicle, laterally have to drive it all the way back to the trailer store to sell it is a huge waist of time.unless theres a way around it.
I agree! Thank you for commenting!
Hi,. Nice man,.! 👍 Keep on Trucking
Thank you!
Man, I wish I'd watched this 400 hours ago XD
Yeah, I made a lot of these mistakes too :)
Good tips gor biggenr 👌
Glad you think so!
Is it better to complete one map at a time or is it better to jump around?
You can do either. I prefer to jump around, because when I get bored of 1 map I can simply go to another. Thank you for commenting!
You can also go to other maps find new trucks to use on other maps.
I think I have some kind of ocd because I always try to 100% areas before moving on to the next. Key word is “try”. It’s been about 3 weeks and I’m still in the second area of Michigan. There is just so much to do. I don’t think I’ll be able to stand staying in the same environment for much longer. I mean I can still move on to stage 3 and 4 though. I know some of the contracts I’m at require it anyways.
Lol my Silverado won’t move in 2wd mud tires are to much for it
Talks about beginner mistakes. Keeps bashing the truck into easily avoidable obstacles like buildings and parked cars.
I'm just making fun :D Though I do have to disagree with one point:
I never sell unused parts. For one, the collector in me is in pain when I could have things and I don't. For another, if I later wish to equip a part I sold before because I wish to customize the truck in this direction, I have to purchase it again.
And 20k extra if I already have 800k anyway is not that big of a difference, anyway.
"Keeps bashing the truck"
The author just got into character too much ;)
About the unused parts -- there are parts that you objectively would never want install again :) Also i see no problem with purchasing a part in this game. It's as simple as installing the owned one :)
That 800k example in the video seems not quite relevant to a beginner :) But for a beginner this tip might actually help. For example when one needs another truck but lacks some money for it.
Valid points! It do believe that it is beneficial to beginners who are low on cash. Thank you for commenting
Good guid
And another thing, you can buy and sell anything in the game at the same price, even if you use petrol out of them at trailer stores if yourre too far from a fuel station!
True!! But this applies to normal mode only
The worst mistake you can make is to think that your real world experience will help you. Forget everything you ever learned about off roading and heavy trucks because it will just turn this game into a total fantasy world joke for you.
You don't necessarily need to sell the unused parts unless you need to buy a truck or another part and you don't have the money like in game currency... You will always have the money as you can't get rid of the unused parts... The only difference is that they are not transformed into money, so in the end its like you have the money anyways
Yeah that's true. But if you buy a truck, sell it, and don't plan on purchasing it again your unused parts don't get calculating into your truck's sell worth. Thank you for commenting!
You make mistakes, you don't "do" them. Ironically.
1. First off, almost every player, newbie or experienced, use the automatic winch.
Second off, you're gonna call a level 75 player a "Beginner" just because their front winch just about reaches a point?
Third off, when I tried that, it does help, but it can twist vehicles and the side winches can hold you back.
Forth off, I'd rather let the game choose what I'm hooking onto rather than get stuck because I'm spamming a button so i can winch to where I want.
Fifth off, "this only connects to the *front* of the truck".
So you're telling me you've never looked to the side of your truck and press the "connect winch" button and saw that it clearly attaches to something next to the truck?
3. Let me style my truck how I want. As @wilkatis rightfully said "Some good lucks are worth getting stuck somewhere."
4. "The beginner player will *ALWAYS* leave AWD on.
Always?
ALWAYS!?
You think every newbie just forgets awd consumes more fuel?
5. I'm not wasting my fuel to ride 10 miles to a loading place if the Garage is much more closer. Besides, I've got frame addons to switch!
6. Ok now you're just thinking they're all stupid.
9. Some trucks such as the Tayga 6436 can't have their fenders removed for whatever reason.
10. What if I need that part later but I'm too low on money with no other vehicles to sell?
Final review: This video is very helpful, but some reasons, such as mistake 4 and 6, make newbies seem dumber than they actually are and some others such as mistake 3 give off a bad view to how people want to play the game their way.
#5. what if you only have a few trucks
I would still recommend not recovering; What you can do is use the truck to complete a couple more missions in the area using the fuel still left in the truck, then you can recover back to the garage.
right off the bat it is wrong, #1 the auto wench is used for quickly gaining extra traction so you do not get stuck, stopping in the middle of the mud to attach your wench will slow you down and possibly get you stuck
I hadn't actually thought about it like that! Thank you for commenting!
Number 1 - totally totally wrong. Point abd shoot with the winch works in every direction off of multiple points. You can look in the direction you want the auto winch to attach to and it will attach a winch to whichever winch point on the part of the vehicle near to where you are looking. I use it looking sideways a lot.
Yeah, I did notice that but it is much less accurate than using the selective winch, especially if you want to winch from the back.
sometime I use auto and manual
Nice video, I definitely wouldn’t consider myself a beginner, but I didn’t know that about the saddle trailers, the it auto-equips the right saddle
Glad it was helpful!
Always priorities functionality rather that aesthetic
100%. Thank you for commenting.
Not for me :) I always enjoy the visuals and sometimes even downgrade the tires. For me, this game is not about winning, but about playing :)
The #7 tip don't work if you have certain mods installed. I have a mod that is a low saddle and crane combo, but it doesn't work on all trucks due to clipping. The game always goes for it if the semi trailer needs low saddle. The mod is made by : Pogrim
Thank you for the info!
nothing new for me so im pro
There's an auto winch?
Yep!
hooooooo you can sell your upgrade im gonna have so much money
It's really great when upgrading trucks!
Odd title.
I've never heard of anyone "doing" a mistake.
I would be embarrassed using the Tayga in Michigan.
#1 not play mudrunner first
Disliked for having a video in 2023 without a voiceover
Thanks for the feedback!
Notably, videos with subs in place of a voiceover are quite common among SR youtubers specifically :)
