    I watched Markiplier struggle at this game. Which made me want it. So I bought it and now my work days go by so damn slow because im itching to get home and play it. Ive NEVER been a simulator type of person. But im absolutely hooked on this damn game. The ability to listen to real radio stations in real time is also a big bonus for me for some reason. Im about to dump so many hours into this game. All because Markiplier struggled to play it and brushed it off. Im glad I saw through it and was able to decide this game was for me.

      I've never been a fan of simulators, excluding farming simulator. All the past truck simulators never really pulled me in until this one. Just have the California/Nevada/Arizona map at the moment but more than enough to keep me busy after work.

      Been a driver for 20 years friend told me about this game. I said no thanks I drive everyday. Eventually after watching videos I got the game. 220 hours into it. I look forward to getting home everyday to play.
      Incase anyone wonders the details of the truck interior/exterior is accurate I've driven everything in the game in real life the switches an gauges are actually where they should be.

    This game is a lot more fun then I imagined. The world map is very detailed. I’ve been thinking about investing in a truck. That’s the only way I’d be able to drive because reckless driving charge a few years back I doubt a company would hire me. Plus it’s more laid back and more money. I used to drive peterbilt box and side panel trucks, $16 hr ain’t cuttin it

    Just a quick tip if you do get into a situation where some dumb AI traffic has you blocked in: hit Escape, go into the graphics settings, and click on the next setting up or down. This forces the game to reload local assets with the new graphics settings, and will make all cars around you vanish from existence. Afterwards, you can put the graphics back where you want it.

The attention to detail and the small things hit different for me. And the ability to listen to real world radio stations blew my freakin mind.

    I just started playing this about a month ago. I wish I would have watched this before I started but now that I've got the hang of it I use it to relax.
    Because I use it to relax I just use automatic transmission. At the moment I don't want to be bothered with shifting gears but perhaps if I need to spice things up a bit I'll select that option. I need to turn infractions off. Those are annoying as hell.
    I don't have the confidence to use first person view all the time when making a delivery. I'm still switching to third person on on/off ramps and in cities.
    Also the video quality here is fantastic. This was an excellent tutorial. Thanks so much.

    • @sempermilites87
      @sempermilites87 4 роки тому +2

      You might not be changing to a lower gear in time. Usually I can get going on a hill from a full stop in 3rd gear. I go to 2nd if the load is a bit heavier. FYI, I play with a mouse and keyboard. If this isn't working, then the truck you're using may not have a big enough engine to haul the load up a steep grade. Quick jobs don't usually have this problem, but if you're in you're own truck then you might run into this problem.

Now it opens on the page to enter your name & details & my mouse arrow floats to the bottom of the screen & is inoperative. I can get no further ...????
    The keyboard works only to enter characters in the field currently highlighted ...the mouse does nothing & the buttons on the wheel do nothing. I'm stuck!

    IF you playing the first version and viewing the date of this, you are. Playing with a controler and the ability to alter the various configuations as KB+M player's have available is great. But us that since July this year(2022), unless one choose xinput and choose's the actual controler, they have no access to the controller configuartion menu, after they finish installing it. Uninstalling, reinstalling it a dozen time, didn't work. One is forced to utilize the games default configs.
    The first time one installs it having a listed controler and choosing it. And not the xinput selection. Mean's regardless of what controler they have, will never have access to the reconfiguration menu.

    I understand you can buy trucks in this game but will it actually mean you can earn more if you are doing your own hauls or will it even be worth it? If I’m going to buy a truck I want more income from the jobs that I do.

    • @sempermilites87
      @sempermilites87 4 роки тому

      You will earn more money, but instead of just clicking on a town on the map and choosing the job you want, you have to drive your own truck to the job site to pick up the trailer. So it's best to just find jobs in the same town your previous one ended. Also with your own truck, you have to keep in mind if your truck has a big enough engine to haul the load. I had this problem the first time I played. I bought a truck with a small engine and some jobs I either couldn't do or it took a very long time to finish.

    for your information I could not hear you because of you had your radio music way to loud and it was drowning you out. you might want to make it no commentary since you like turning the radio up while your talking.

      Is this sarcastic? Are you being facetious? Because at least to me, his voice is at least twice as loud as the music...which is playing very softly in the background. How strange, you're the second person to comment that...wtf lol

    Sad emotional break-up music doesn't fit very well with a truck sim.. Almost vomited all over my keyboard.

    Rather hear the truck and/or the game sounds then the damn music. Stop watching after 5min due to that. We want to learn the game not what type of easy listening crap music ya like.
