Wheels!

Here is a hint that in Euro Truck Simulator 2, you won't be stuck with just one particular axle configuration. When purchasing and configuring a truck, there will be several things to customize, not just the wheels of course!

In particular, the 6x4 Volvo may be of interest if you pay close attention. With the physics programmers implementing features like Ackermann steering geometry, the precision of the physical simulation should be a different league compared to any of our previous games.

    Wow..These amazing...I like them. The Volvo is very nice, and Actros also. But distance of between the merci and trailer, is too high. Not? Or you will repaired it? This is a question, not provocation. Congratulations...I wait the game.. :D

    Cool Cool..
    the chassis is little too long or ?
    the spacing between the cab and trailer is too big for the European conditions .. looks more like Australian truck .. maybe you should the saddle plat push it forward..
    Hmmm The Bridge looks a little bit of the Great Belt Bridge in Denmark..or the Öresund Bridge .. Denmark-Sweden...pleas show the map..:( i wish see pictures from the new map and new trailer models..greetings from denmark

    This is more then I have aspected very good job.

    It will be great if you would make an axel configuration like this ( http://img.agriaffaires.com/truck/56_56550_2449637-3/mercedes-benz-2533-axor-6x2-bdf-new.jpg )
    and of course truck and trailer combinations like this ( http://www.mascus.com/image/product/large/hulleman/MERCEDES-BENZ-MB-2540-6X2-BDF-EU,3183_3.jpg ) wich have never been in any truck game.

    Finally we will get trucks with other kind of axels, and with tunning, cuz it's boring only see standart trucks. Btw, any change to get trailer with some kind of tunning?

    Anyway, i wish all the best for SCS and keep posting more updates of this fantastic game, i'm impatient to see the next screen!

    really very, very good. For ETS are mods to have this trucks, but in AI traffic is the second axle unvisible. I am already dreaming about heavy duty trucks with beacons and semi-lowloaders. But are you going to present tuned trailers? I think, that's a good idea. And i'd like to see more different loads,like in ET2. Further I can only say, Good job SCS!

    Now this is the kind of news I like to hear... I was beginning to think that all you guys are doing for the next release is better graphics; which is - in my view - the least important thing in the sim. GTS already had nice graphics, it's the physics and gameplay that desperately need a revamp. Customizing the trucks is great, also you should bring back a choice of engines and transmissions. But most importantly, I hope that you will take care of control interfaces, proper support for the G25 wheel with it's clutch pedal and shifter is paramount.

    Ok!! Very nice!! But i still hope to see 8x4 tractors. I also hope to see a kind of revolution - do not take ETS as a reference!! hum... i hope to see many, many trailers... of all kinds!! Many countries, cities, companies and roads!! A COMPLETE EUROPEAN MAP!! With all the countries - do not worry about the size of the game... hum... 64x computering is gettin' well-spread. Or if you guys prefer... create two version for the game... light and full version. Or give this option during the installation. I think that every country should have at least 10 cities. Please, next time... post pics.. of the tractors (i hope 8x4 is included), of the cities, of the countries, of the trailers... Add multiplayers... add the possibility of customizing the game - includin' new countries, cities, companies, mods, etc.
    Very good job!! SCS team!! But don't forget - Always improve!!

    and you can shift to high and low gears and split gears.. please!! and make the steering better!

    Oh!! i forgot - please add double-trailers, triple-trailers... add trucks with frontal engige - like Scania 124 360. Add complete truck dealers with used and new trucks. Add old trucks. Add the possibility to buy things like stronger engines, special headlights, semi-automatic and automatic gears.

    I have a suggestion for SCS and the Euro Truck Simulator 2. Biggest problem of this game is that for most players it become boring because its always the same, especialy the long highway parts.
    Traveling with trailers is quite boring, you must add game technics and some minigames to make it important.
    The game is also so easy. When you're passing everything on 100% you haven't motivation to stand in game anymore.
    You have level system, so try to use it more than just for saying "you are experienced driver now". When my level increase, game may become more and even more harder - very small depots, delievery time impossibly small, goods damage if I slow down too fast, etc.

    AND my biggest wish: dont use highways so much, you may better build lots of small country roads! I am sure the Highway driving in your games has discouraged most players!

    Don't took it as I dont like this game, I'm your big fan and can't wait for ETS2.

    Please do this:
    Mirror destruction - when you colide with some vehicle by mirrors, they are destroyed and you must buy new in shop.
    Hydraulic - when you want to tow some kipper trailer, you must have hydraulic system on your truck (for unload the trailer) You may include unloading on some building sites, there should also be bad terrain - you can get stuck.

    Image of unloading - http://www.asb-portal.cz/UserFiles/Image/stavebnictvi/stavebni-technika/mobilni-technika-pro-prevoz-sypkych-stavebnich-materialu/06-bujna.jpg

    Hey SCS!!

    Very nice work here, the 6x4 looks really good, especially the Volvo :)

    But I was playing GTS the other day and I noticed something that I think should be better on the new ETS2!!

    1.
    Make sure that the (example) Scania Highline from the inside has also the cabine of an Highline. Because on GTS the roof is too high for an Highline. Even the smallest cabine as a Topline roof from the inside.

    2. Not every truck has the same cabine. I mean, an Magnum sits higher than a TGX. If you pass the TGX on GTS and look from outside it's indeed higher but from the inside you're sitting on the same level?!

    But keep working on ETS2 - We're all looking forward to buy the game.

    Can we have rigid lorries as well with drag trailers. possibly some deliveries to farms up tight little lanes maybe even hay and straw loads to some places. you could buy some cargo e.g france and take it to london and try and sell it for profit. tachos would be great for realism and maybe some Vosa stations and if your lorry isn't in good shape it could be seezed and you pay a fine to get it back. thanks. your doing a great job !!!

    Trucking is not only about driving. And this fact may be shown in game too - manually unloading goods in some shop depots, repairing damaged trucks and so on... It could be fun and variegation of game!
    I am scripter and I know its not so easy, but if you do it, its big step, it prepares your game to add more things later.

    Take the saddlepad a bit forward to the cabine and it looks realistic ;)
    And one big wish please:
    Re-create the companys NBFC,FCP and BCP. They are to small to drive realistic in it, especally if you have to drive reverse with a trailer!^^
