American Truck Simulator Free Download Unfitgirl I’m driving down a long, remote desert road in the dead of night. There’s no other traffic and I can’t see anything except the glow of my headlights and the cracked, dusty asphalt ahead. I’m hypnotised by the road, which seems to go on forever. My attention drifts. ‘In the Air Tonight’ by Phil Collins plays on the classic rock radio station I’m tuned to. Then, suddenly, something appears directly in front of me. A shape on the road. I panic, my heart racing. In a long instant I think: is it a car? An animal? I slam on the brakes and skid to a lurching halt. Then I see it. A tumbleweed rolling lazily across the road in front of me, lit up by the glow of my lights. I laugh at myself and continue towards Los Angeles. I’ve got 30 tons of fertiliser to deliver, and time’s running out. This is what passes for an anecdote in American Truck Simulator, a game so slow and uneventful that the sudden appearance of tumbleweed is genuinely thrilling. These little moments—military jets streaking across the sky, strange sculptures by the side of the road, trains rumbling past—feel almost like rewards. A brief glimmer of excitement in a long drive across vast swathes of largely empty nothingness. Like its predecessor, Euro Truck Simulator, it’s a game that is mysteriously compelling despite its mundane subject matter. It’s a fundamentally good game, with weighty, nuanced handling, a deep simulation, and higher production values than most sims. Unfitgirl.COM SEXY GAMES

This results in something both very playable and oddly hypnotic. Driving from place to place, obeying the traffic laws, watching the scenery roll by, listening to the radio… it’s incredibly relaxing. There are two main ways to play. One is working as a freelance gun for hire, taking on delivery jobs where your truck and fuel expenses are provided by your employer. This is the easiest, most accessible way to play, and as you level up you can spend XP to unlock more lucrative jobs including longer hauls and fragile or dangerous cargo. These earn you money that can be spent unlocking the other side of the game: running your own business. Once you earn enough money to buy your own truck—or take out a bank loan if you’re impatient—you can start your own company. You choose which city you’re based in and can customise and upgrade your truck. Eventually you hire drivers and create your very own haulage network. It’s a fairly involved business management sim, but entirely optional. There’s satisfaction in owning a truck and being your own boss, but I prefer being a contractor so I don’t have to worry about buying fuel or crashing my truck and spiralling into debt when the repair bills come in. At launch, American Truck Simulator comes with two states: California and Nevada.

Shoulder To The Wheel

More will be added over time, but it is slightly disappointing that you can’t yet drive from coast to coast. Still, it’s a huge space, and you can visit cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas—and a number of small towns between. Set on the sun-scorched west coast, the scenery is mostly dusty and desert-like, but they’ve captured the look and feel of both states nicely. I prefer the overcast, rain-soaked motorways of Europe myself, but the new setting is detailed and well-made. Anyone who played Euro Truck Simulator 2 may find the game a little too familiar in places. The interface and structure are pretty much identical, and it feels like they’ve picked up the old game and dropped it into the new location. Even different colours or visual flourishes on the interface would have been welcome, just to remind you that it is indeed a new work. As a result, if you were already burned out on ETS, the new setting might not be enough to reignite your passion. It’s a very similar experience overall. The trucks—of which there are only two available at launch—don’t really feel that different to their European counterparts. It’s more like an iteration than a fully-blown sequel. But if SCS are as tireless and passionate with ongoing updates as they are with Euro Truck Simulator 2, ATS will only get better as it grows. America is a vast, varied country with a lot of different scenery, and more states to drive through will make for more interesting journeys. For now, this is a polished, strangely enjoyable simulator that you can easily lose hours to. Nobody Saves the World Switch NSP

But if you want to travel further afield, you might want to wait until there are more places to go to.uro Truck Simulator has been a pretty big success for SCS Software, and they’ve taken things up a notch with their new simulation. Everything has improved, although ETS 2 didn’t have any serious problems either. So now we have perhaps the most complete driving simulation in the history of games (an honor to all rallies, but this is something from a completely different dimension). The biggest flaw of the game is the decision to unlock the American continent “by the spoonful”, similar to how it was with Europe in ETS2, with the fact that it will probably take much longer here. At the beginning, Arizona and Nevada are available to you, which is quite enough to familiarize yourself with the possibilities of American monstrosities and the dusty roads of the “wild west”. The steering mechanics underwent the biggest changes. Namely, the gearbox is the main star of the game here. Depending on how fond you are of simulation, ie. whether you want sporadic fun while Severina’s “gas gas” (or whatever it’s called) is playing in the background or you still want to see how well you know how to drive a truck, you’ll choose one of three possible driving modes.  At the beginning you have automatic, a mode in which the gears change automatically while you only have to press the gas and the brake.

40 Miles Of Bad Road

The sequential gearbox as the second level of difficulty gives a more realistic view of the hard-earned bread of the trucker. However, if you really want to experience from A to Z all the problems and pleasures that an eighteen-speed transmission brings with it, you will choose a full manual transmission and try to outshine the “ice road truckers” as you carve your way through the dead-ends of America. Yes, you read that right, unlike ETS2, here we drive trucks with 18 speeds, and that’s the difference you’ll have the hardest time getting used to. In addition to the gearbox, the parking system has undergone changes, so now we have a simplified direct entry into the marked field, in addition to the classic professional parking in reverse. Also, the USA design is recognizable, with the cabin located behind the engine block, unlike Scania and other Europeans where the cabin is “on top”. The world is now much more vibrant, with much more diverse traffic and pedestrian presence. In addition, the punishment of offenses now has a different character. Namely, if you break the rules, an interceptor will appear very quickly and in a cute animation accompanied by a siren and rotating lights, you will be shortchanged for a considerable amount of hard-earned money. At the very end, we will also mention the “world of trucks” service intended for players Noita

where they can post pictures of their pets and thus compete according to the likes system, whose baby is prettier. If you’re a fan, then definitely get ATS. Even if you haven’t, do yourself a favor and play this, even if it’s in arcade mode. The dose of fun is higher than in some shouted titles (it’s Need For Speed, I’m thinking of you), and nothing can replace the feeling of driving at 4AM while “Road to Hell” is playing on the radio. Possibly like you, I largely ignored Euro Truck Simulator 2, despite its growing, enthusiastic fanbase and its 3.5 million copies sold (yes, really). My assumption was that spending hours driving cargo across lonely stretches of highway would be, well, supremely boring. Sheer curiosity landed it in my review queue, and I also wanted something new to test with my Logitech G920 Racing Wheel besides Project Cars and Dirt Rally. My assumptions were obliterated a few hours into my playthrough of American Truck Simulator. During one of my many adventures, I was traveling down the I-5 South at about 1 a.m with an excavator on my lowboy, only about 30 miles from my destination in the coastal town of Carlsbad, CA. I’d been on the road for hours, and had foolishly disregarded my persistent yawns. Common sense urged me to find a rest stop and snooze for a few hours, but time had become my enemy.

Life Is A Highway

Time was my nemesis, and the more deliveries I squeezed into my schedule, the more I inched from the red back into the black. Suddenly, my vision darkened around the corners and I realized I was in trouble. I shifted up to 14th gear, dismissing the 55MPH speed limit. Unfortunately the highway patrol was out in full force and I was slapped with a $1000 speeding ticket, which was instantly deducted from my bank account. I should have kept a closer watch on my mirrors. I sighed, downshifted, and set my cruise control, crossing my fingers that I’d make the remainder of this haul without incident. 10 miles later, though, my vision went black, and a single terrifying word appeared in white text on the screen: “dozing.” I panicked and accidentally swerved left, ramming a car into the shoulder and instantly losing another $1600 from my profits. Now I was only clearing $2000 from this $4600 job, less the added cost of repairs and fuel. That trip wasn’t the most serene — and it certainly wasn’t boring — but others were strangely hypnotic. Though not a perfect facsimile of California and Nevada, the developers have nevertheless created a pretty photorealistic representation of the highways, byways, and memorable landscapes of these states. There’s something cathartic about driving through the dusty deserts of Nevada at dusk No Man’s Sky

seeing tumbleweeds dance across the road and smacking into Joshua trees, participating in the ebb and flow of the highway. Or seeing San Diego’s beautiful coastline come into view at dawn. Or watching crop dusters fly over tall green fields in California’s central valley. Having lived in and driven through these areas (I grew up in Fresno and currently live near Las Vegas), I’m impressed with the amount of detail and beauty that’s been injected into these virtual environments. Prior to writing this review, I struggled to articulate exactly why I enjoyed driving these long stretches, with or without complications, and finally realized it’s simply the wonderful sensation of the open road. The game captures that intoxicating feeling of the perfect roadtrip, especially when complimented by the game’s included selection of live or internet radio stations. (Though, I prefer my curated Spotify playlist.) I’m also impressed with the traffic AI! They wait at intersections, stop at red lights, and I was shocked to see a few cars decelerate when I flicked my turn signal, allowing me to slip into the left lane. On The Road Again The initial hours of American Truck Simulator find you as a lonely driver for hire, slowly building up your stockpile of cash and improving your skills, which become increasingly valuable as the game progresses.

Do you want to be a master of transporting hazardous and explosive materials? Or will you concentrate on long-distance runs and fuel economy? These early hours can be a bit of a grind, but they serve to teach you the game’s mechanics, systems, and get you familiar with the rules of the road. Where ATS shines brightest is when you’ve finally accumulated enough cash to buy your own garage and build out your own fleet. Now you’re trying to maximize company profits, hire reliable drivers, build additional garages, all while managing yourself and participating in your own pickups and deliveries. It’s a trucking sim, business sim, and time management game all rolled into one. The more I became immersed in American Truck Simulator, though, I realized I had to spend some time with its predecessor in order to judge the comparative value of this sequel. That’s where one of my minor complaints rears its ugly head. Players of Euro Truck Simulator will notice that the menus (right down to their color and layout), the user interface, the gameplay flow here are identical. In that regard, it makes American Truck Simulator feel more like DLC than a fully fledged sequel. To be fair, it does only cost $19.99 and is well worth it. Newcomers will find a lot to love here, but apart from the new terrain, it’s guaranteed to feel very “samey” to veterans of the franchise.
