Just got the game and a somewhat dissapointed, becasue for some reason, it's really blurry in random places and theres a thin black line right down the middle of the screen thats kinda annoying as fuck
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;38231784]I can never read those signs when I'm going 100 MPH Never got a speeding ticket in Germany myself.[/QUOTE] You mean km/h?
Anyone else having performance issues? I'm on a GTX570 + OC'd Q9650 and the game lags on Medium settings.
Any suggestions on making money? I'm getting about 8k for a haul between Manchester and Rotterdam.
Finished my first run, went perfectly, no crashes or anything, my second run however, a fucking van driver didn't slow down when i was merging on the on ramp. Is it just me or does the AI not fucking slow down for you ever, causing them to crash into you.
Oh my god, my driver yawned really loud and scared the shit out of me, causing me to slam into the truck in front of me.
Man, the newcastle to swansea run i just did was pretty nice, rain, roadworks, railway crossings and somce nice countryside.

[QUOTE=smfE;38235410]You mean km/h?[/QUOTE] I converted all my trucks to MPH. Dick Bitchwhistle is a fat bastard from Brooklyn. He refused to speak any language other than English and has a thick New York accent. He only hires Italians to work for him, like his last driver Tony Sapprano who had his head bashed in with a tire iron because he made -400 a day. He also refuses to drive on the left-side of the road in the UK. [editline]29th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Chryseus;38235825]Any suggestions on making money?

I never get a haul less than 25k and usually the average is 30k/45k I guess a lot of people need their cyanide transported around Europe. Europeans love cyanide.

I've noticed they're quite inconsistent with the 60mph speed limit signs in the UK part, why is there sometimes a 60mph speed limit sign and then a national speed limit sign? surely they'd all be national speed limit signs? I live here and I've literally never seen a 60mph sign
Took a job from Hamburg to Gronningen. Right before I was at the delivery point, I took a left past a red light and slammed into the front of another truck. :v: I just backed up and drove off to complete my mission. Nobody saw anything. Nobody.

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;38237463] Love this valley, lot's of birds and balloons too.[/QUOTE] Where's that?
What happens if you flip a truck? do you have to start a new profile because i see no way of resetting my truck
[QUOTE=Gareth;38238788]What happens if you flip a truck? do you have to start a new profile because i see no way of resetting my truck[/QUOTE] You mean other than the services tab on the GPS thing?
This game has my home city, Plymouth. Shame it looks nothing like it, apart from the church and the university building.
[QUOTE=Gareth;38238788]What happens if you flip a truck? do you have to start a new profile because i see no way of resetting my truck[/QUOTE] Call for assistance using your GPS, they will take you to the nearest city and charge you
[QUOTE=matt.ant;38238831]Call for assistance using your GPS, they will take you to the nearest city and charge you[/QUOTE] I was in the city my delivery was in and like an asshole took a corner in-town going like 60MPH and flipped my truck. Called the tow truck and they drove me to another country to a city like 3 ingame hours away. Fuckers.
[QUOTE=Stopper;38238708]Where's that?[/QUOTE] Somewhere in switzerland
Idiot AI crashed fullspeed into my trailer at the re-fueling station and added 2% damage. What.

This would be awesome in mp in tell ya.
Just made a quick haul for 3k. Profit? 0.- Reason? 30% damage. Thanks AI. [editline]30th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=dafour;38240275]This would be awesome in mp in tell ya.[/QUOTE] It would be nice for some simple MP. Just sync the trucks and add chat. Let's say there's 1k players online at any given moment. Across all the countries, and all the roads, I'd say it would be pretty fine to meet a dozen of players at most during your haul. Shouldn't be hard to sync 2-3 trucks and some sort of short range chat/radio.

I'm not a person who is into trucks, but I was kinda sad they didn't have any Leyland Trucks in the game (Leyland Truck + Eddie Stobart Scheme win) Also, I daren't let me Uncle ever see me playing this game, He'd probably bollock me for doing so many things wrong! Also, goddamnit, I hate how shorter transportation missions don't factor in even a bit of rest time.
This game is fun. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18418859/MOVEBITCH_GETOUTDAWAY.png[/img]
Holy fuck I'm actually having fun with this
This plus the Driving force GT steering wheel makes for a realistic experience. Whenever I take a corner too fast and violently roll, the force feedback will dislocate both my shoulders just like it would in real life!
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;38237852]I converted all my trucks to MPH. [/QUOTE] I believe the analogue speedometers still display kph. Or what's the fastest you've ever been? I can't seem to do more than 130 kph / around 85mph. But then again I don't have my own truck yet and have never tried driving without a trailer.
Haha, I'd love this game to be online with eve-style servers. You'd just get so many idiots crashing into everything.
