Euro Truck Simulator 2 worthy of purchase

[Tom01793]

Can the configs be saved so they can be shared to make it easier for newcomers?

Dont know but i could always screen shot my config up to show the setup

Depends on what people think

 

[Tom01793]

Yea will see when i get home will try and upload

 

[Tom01793]

yea all i can say to the people out there that are none believers just try it and you will see

 

[Tom01793]

Perhaps I'm just terrible but I can't steer to save my life. I have sensitivity as far left as possible, turned up the deadzone so very rarely is my thumb resting and the steering doing anything. I think a big problem I have is input lag, I have at least a half a second input lag so it makes it very hard to drive like real life. I honestly think I'd be able to drive a lorry in real life better than I can in this game.

I don't know if there is an option to reduce steering input as the speed increases. It's just annoying because at 55mph I go to turn around a slight curve on the motorway and out of nowhere my wheel has been turned upside down and I start bouncing off the barriers, at 55mph on the motorway the wheel should never turn more than 90degrees and even that is probably too much.

I've done 3 missions, all of them I received no money or XP because I keep hitting things and other cars lol.

Yea never use the out side! view i know it looks good but u don't get a good sense of direction in that view always stick with the inside view. This works well trust me i have done this on the first version of this game and now this one, Also for you hard core Truckers out there! lol always park your trailer using the inside view gives a great sense of achievement.
As a rule of thumb always just use the inside view for everything.i have removed all other view options in my game. any more problems just ask

don't understand why some of you guys are getting input lag as mine works 100% with my 360 controller in windows, why not try my controller setup see if that helps, But as before always stay on the inside view.

 

[Tom01793]

They did, but it's not as good, no option to buy your own truck, basically anything, it's just you driving around for other firms delivering stuff around a few major UK cities.

I downloaded the demo last night, it is scary how long you can play it for without realizing.

Anyways, done a few cheapies, love my little shed hut garage thing, took a loan out, bought a truck and now creaming in the cash doing short hauls on the continent. had a few prangs, and those damn speed camera's, lost about 2K in speeding fines.

Yea ETS2 is the best by far the other ones are just stepping stones.

 

[Tom01793]

i did not even get a thanks on the blog for starting the thred.

 

[Tom01793]

That must had required a ton of effort from you.



No issues here, also using Windows 8.

Yup on the win 8 lol also dont want to mod yet as might interfear with the next patch

 

[Tom01793]

are there any good physics mods that work out there for win7

 

[Tom01793]

yea how do u get the game looking its best i take it just put all the settings on max

 

[Tom01793]

I am using onboard GPU and graphics look great!

Made a 2nd character now for when I want to go a crashing spree!!! Lol

lol

 

[Tom01793]

I was expecting the next patch by now.

 

[Tom01793]

there is a minor update for the patch that came out yesterday due to problems

 

[Tom01793]

i sore a bus straight away after the patch also game runs better i think, i am lvl 13 now, anyone running more than 1 full garage on this yet?
Seems to take a very long time to get any good money of ov it, also my drivers only seem to brin back like 2k after every run
