This screen doesn't show the UK destinations, as they were not in the particular build of the game when this image was grabbed, but a considerably reworked map from UKTS will be merged in too.
It may be a disappointment for some of our fans from countries not covered here, but this is as good as we have managed so far after almost 2 years of work on the game. With the attention to detail we are pursuing, and much denser road coverage compared to original Euro Truck Simulator, adding in countries is a tedious and slow process. For comparison, while the original ETS map represented circa 1.5 man-year of work, we have already sunk over eight man-years into the ETS2 map, and we are not quite finished yet.
Is this all? Depends on you. We would love to continue extending the ETS2 world beyond the release of the initial version of the game, but it all depends on support that we receive from the fan base. But we have already ranted on this topic multiple times, and it's well past midnight here in Prague.
What a great coverage, I'm glad to hear the infrastructure will be denser, I always wished there was another way to get from A to B in ETS.
ReplyDeleteNow, I also hope HUNGARY will have a destination (Budapest), the grey color and that its an earlier build led me to believe that
A voire ce que ça donneras a la sortie de ETS 2
ReplyDeleteJe vois qu'il y a pas beaucoup de route plus d'autoroute que de petite route encore une fois!!!
Perso je suis dessus de la carte mais ces que mon avis pour l'instemps ça peut changer.
Très bon travail SCS, j’espère que vous faite tous ce que vous pouvez pour rendre le jeux formidable je vous fait confiance.
like in past years. muie romania. i have a huge collection of scs trucks game and i am sure i`m not onlu, but scssoft give us muie. thank you!not
ReplyDeleteshow something about PORTUGAL please! :D
ReplyDeletewhy don't you have scandinavian countries on the map?
ReplyDeleteI had really liked to drive in norway, because i am norwegian and it is more challanging roads here.
Very good. There are so many that not to tell :/ But is not it better will have more places to load and unload, and at least I hope veses three cities are bigger than the other older versions of Truck Simulator.
ReplyDeleteEric
SP/BRASIL
want scandinavian patch
ReplyDeleteIt's really a good job. I'm pretty sure you will do some update that will add on country or city.
ReplyDeleteBut what is this in this image is already a very good thing. Especially not seen yet the cities of the United Kingdom.
I understand the disappointment of some people who do not find their country, but we must understand that it's not that easy for SCS Software, and try to have hope they will release patches to add some other country, I am thinking of Spain or Portugal.
I think you, the development team and the person who post the news here, must be very tired. When I see the time when the news are posted (even on weekends, few people work on weekends), I see you have a lot of courage and I guess you must all be united, make more hours to try to keep the studio.
I updates the blog very often, at least ten times a day. It's like a drug for me and others I think. We all love your work and tonight, I wish once again to thank you.
And I wish you courage.
Good night and good luck to you.

Sorry for my bad english, i am french.
Titou.
This looks good to me. I would like more countries, but I would also be willing to buy expansion packs to add the missing countries as well.
ReplyDeleteVery good work. But there are a some countries with few cities.
ReplyDeleteYou said they are working in a map with more highways. This is great. Maybe don't be big as i imagine.
I always thought there should be dirt roads that would lead to farms where we could get milk, tomatoes, pineapples, among others, and lead to companies like EuroGoodies. Would be really cool.
I can not forget about me driving a Mercedes Benz Accelo on a dirt road from one farm to the city early in the morning, carrying fresh milk, in this simulator. This is an old idea that would make the game more real and isn't bad. So, you could release updates for Euro Truck Simulator 2 with more truck(big and also small), more highways, more companies, more targets, make the game more complete and always actual.
Thanks SCS Soft.
Gean from Belo Horiznte.
the only think I want to say is think you, for the team of SCS , you must be very tired. When I see the time when the news are posted (even on weekends, few people work on weekends), thank you and good night.
ReplyDeleteTaken 8 years to complete this great map and some ppl want more places like Scandinavia etc. Sure they could add them and the game might be out by 2015, let's just be happy with what we have now and it is looking great. Maybe later on more extra's will be added via DLC or whatever method.
ReplyDeleteAnd ofcourse the modding community will have lots to help with the extra addons, personaly would like to see a polished game right now with what they have already done then a agame with 2,000 citys in it and issues around every turn.
i love you scs !
ReplyDeleteSCS this is very awesome news! For the Countries that didn't make it in It will give us modders something to do!!!! Thank you SCS Soft for being busy and working hard I'm happy that yall are devoted to making this game better and to make the best trucking sim ever made until American Truck Sim comes out lol
ReplyDeletehello
ReplyDeletei have a question ...
will have the Euro Truck Simulator 2 the teritory of Romania ???
please give me an answer
my e-mail is: mary_v97@yahoo.com
As far as made the map's perfect.. I hope you'll do your best to add more countries like Romania, Bulgaria, Greece.. But if not, it wont be sucha big problem, becouse the ETS2 world is allready "preatty" big with a lot more citys in the allready existing countries. GREAT! work scs. Keep up ! ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be a great game SCS, cant wait any longer..
ReplyDeleteAdd the cities of Slovakia there! For example, Nitra, Banská Bystrica and Košice. especially Nitra
ReplyDeletei want finland in the map.
ReplyDeleteGood work, SCS!
ReplyDeleteI am a fan of your games!
Please make following lands;
Please make Hungarian, UK, France, Netherlands, Portugal, Germany, Bulgaria....... and real Motorways
please make more than 120 cities in totally
no curves on the Motorways!
Please do the HIGHWAYS as in the reality!
I appreciate your work!
I will wait until 10.01.2012
Do relase on 10. 01 .2012, please but try to make all the lands wich are in the reality
NICE GAME!
Congurlations from Romania!
Traian
good job scs, please more cyties
ReplyDeleteCool, even new cities in Germany, seems to be Kassel, Mannheim/Ludwigshafen, Osnabrück that's a big plus
ReplyDeleteOn the screen I still miss A3 from Frankfurt to Netherlands via Köln, please don't let that important Highway out of the game, same to A6 it should go to France.
But perhaps you already built that, the picture is just too old.
Greetings from Frankfurt am Main
who cares about driving around in germany? give us scandinavia ffs
ReplyDeletedont need to expend anymore for now fix trailers and other stuff in game and give us game!!!!!!! we wanna play
ReplyDeleteIt's good that the cities are more closer to eachother, not 2 cities to the whole country :)
ReplyDeleteYou could release this as "Euro Truck Simulator 2 Lite" and then do more coverage and call it "Euro Truck Simulator 2 Standard" and then do even more coverage and call it "Euro Truck Simulator 2 Ultimate" :) just a suggestion
ReplyDeleteWhere is Romania? I'm sad!
ReplyDeleteFIND MAPPERS.
ReplyDeleteThere are LOADS of mappers that could help you guys out, for example Pumizo from eurotrucksimulator.org, he is a good mapper, also there are some others on there.
^Perhaps the Germans care, where SCS games usually sell best?
ReplyDeleteAs for Hungary, it would be great if you could tell me (a short response is everything I need) on why Hungary is indicated as an active country, if Budapest is not shown? Three things came to my mind...
a.) Hungary is greyed out accidentally, the country won't be available (fair enough, you told me back then that "Hungary may not make it into the final version")
b.) Hungary is not included in this build.
c.) The Hungarian section is not yet ready.
d.) Hungary is there, but Budapest is not available for headquarters. I can understand that, considering all the taxes and the total lack of company revenues we have here.... :DDDDDD
please make more cities and don't realase it soon and make finish it at 10.10.2012 but finish itwith all tha lands in europa and all the cities
ReplyDeletewith highways and roads sorry for my bad english
As i see, there is no balcan, please put in balcan and scandinavia and this will be the best game ever!
ReplyDeleteIf you complete all the countries, what aren't completed (France, Slovakia, Poland etc.), then it would be real create! As for now, it looks like the Germany is the center of everything.
ReplyDeleteHope to see complete France in game on day!
All the best!
@.n.d
Where is Romania? seriously..if you want to make EURO TRUCK SIMULATOR, then ADD ALL THE COUNTRIES AND CITIES THAT ARE IN EUROPEAN UNION. I prefer that you guys launch the game more later and work hard and do all the things are needed to do OR make it how you want and make the posibility to add update packages, something like: Need For Speed World or MineCraft. Just take a look at these games.
ReplyDeleteNo Sweden ): A suggestion don't write that you can drive in whole Europe becouse that not true.
ReplyDeleteOnly completed countries are Germany (basic model from GTS) UK (basic model from UKTS) and then small ones: Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland...
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely complete at least one of the NEW big countries. I mean France or Poland or Italy. At least one of them before the release!
As for now, I'm littlebit dissapointed.
Regards!
Hello there.
ReplyDeleteYes. As other says it could be great with Scandinavian map / roads too.
I am from Scandinavia too and miss that we can drive here too.
And it.could be fun with weather functions - like storms.
And snow in winther time.
Good job.
Great to see that there is Austria in that game again! Are you also able to drive over the 'Tauernautobahn' to Italy? Would be great, cause it's one of the most popular North to South route
ReplyDeletelooks good, but only had a few major cities in liked
ReplyDeletenice !
ReplyDeleteScania is from Sweden and you have been in Sweden and still no Sweden, don't be suprised if it don't gonna have a Scania license.
ReplyDeleteHello guys!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice-nice, but...
It will be Middle-West-Europe Simulator 2, because it's not whole Europe?!
I understand, that you working very hard, but if it will be Euro Truck, then you create whole Europe!
scs, you never fail to amaze me with the screenshots you are showing, amazing work.
ReplyDeletevery good job,so many cities in germany,belgium and austria than the old game,but I would like to see more countries at least hungarian and scandinavian.my hope for greece i think is impossible..
ReplyDeletewell this is only good news for the German country really - just look at the coverage they are getting - 22 cities..it seems just unfair that the rest of Europe where you have so many dedicated fans (Scandinavia, Baltic States, Balcan states, Spain, Portugal..) are so neglected that they can't even get their capitals in the game (that's like one city each with two roads leading to them!). But you have probably counted it in business so I guess you are counting mostly on the German country to bring you money..pity.
ReplyDeletethe good side is that I counted already 54 cities, so the middle-center Europe is going to be DENSE - plus with the UK cities that you want to do (at least 6 more cities I guess) it should be over 60 cities total which is something like twice of the original ETS1 size. The down side is that you have densed the Germany so much, and that countries like Spain, Norway, Sweden, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece etc. seem to not get your attention AT ALL. which is really dissapointing.
ReplyDeleteOf Course it's more buyers in Germany, Germany is in the game, if other countries was in it more buyers in those countries would buy it.
ReplyDeleteWhere is in Poland Bytow ?! (77-100 Bytow)
ReplyDeletePlease include this popular Town :)
I prefer to wait more for to game but I want that game to be epic.
ReplyDeleteMore countries (in the photo doesnt appear Portugal, Spain, Italy and the other half of France. Work a lot but work properly.
Good work SCS all my feedback and my support. (and from my other friends too)
Hello, i like what you are doing to ETS 2, but i have one question? Is it posible to put Slovenija on ETS 2 Map. I beleive you are familiar with the one of the most important port in Koper. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_of_Koper) It is one of the most important ports in europe. I think it would be great to have it in the game.
ReplyDeletePS: The game looks grate, i cant wait to play it.
You should have been deleting some of the German cities maybe and focus on expanding the Europe, but you've just focust on UK and Germany and then add few other countries and cities... There's no need for such dense Germany, when it's only one of the two of these dense countries.
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice Map,
ReplyDeletei hope the cities are bigger then GTS and ETS.
Germany has the most cities.. that's not fair.
ReplyDeleteand spain? :(
ReplyDeletenice map but where is the scandinavian countries?? :O
ReplyDeleteWADOWICE (JAN PAWEŁ II), KRAKÓW - Long City...
ReplyDeleteIf only people read the post, but no, and those people will not read this comment either, so... Poor SCS, people see pictures but do not read the words. Work in progress, people. Oy vey. /c:
ReplyDeleteAnyway, looking good so far, SCS. More roads, denser network of such and more cities with (most of) the countries from ETS and the chance of expanding it if people actually buy the game instead of stealing it, sounds good indeed! Let's hope people indeed buy it this time and that you thus can add more countries later on as you hint at. (c:
Croatia doesn't stand a chance does it? Considering Rijeka (Croatia) and Koper (Slovenia) are the most important ports on this side of the Adriatic, it could be at least a "maybe" part of the game. KIU SCS! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck scs !
ReplyDeleteEG Germany - Lets Play it
To many German cities. I'm dissapointed.
ReplyDeleteImprove and facilitate the map editor would be good ..
ReplyDeleteI was expecting more of the cities that will be mapped as accurately as possible, but not at the expense of the rest of the map of Europe ... it is true map and the artwork itself is very high compared to previous visits. But if it's 2 Euro Truck Simulator, Euro Truck Simulator successor should be a whole map of Europe, not only neighboring countries based on the German ... only exception is Italy, which in no way is bordered by the German.
ReplyDeleteCan't you add some cities in Sweden to? Like Gothenburg, Stockholm and malmoe? It would be so awesome to be able to drive in my homecountry in the game!
ReplyDeleteEric!
http://ericj.zoomin.se
Please Add just 1-2 cities in South-West in France just Bordeaux or Toulouse!!!!
ReplyDeleteBut Nice Job ;););););)
bulgaria romania moldova yugoslavia hungary
ReplyDeletewill be included in the game or not
romania bulgaria hungary moldova iugoslavia turcia
ReplyDeletevor fi incluse in joc sau nu
does this have the UK? it would be a shame not to have it :/
ReplyDeletePlease guys, add more Slovakia! :) Is that Bratislava I see there? Could you add, for example, Poprad and Košice? That would be sooo cool :)
ReplyDeleteAlso more czech cities would be nice ;)
Is name Euro Truck Simulator 2. right? This means all Europe. So where is Romania? Moldova..
ReplyDeleteWhy you don't mape some Mappacks, like Call of Duty game's.. You can get more money and we more fun! (Like more countries or trucks or whatever..)
ReplyDeleteAnd could you sell this game on Steam too please?
Greetz from holland!
Where's Ireland?
ReplyDeleteWe are ver happy, that so much cities are in localized in germany;)
ReplyDeleteRegards from your Mods&More TrucksimCOM under
www.euro-trucksimulator2.de
Hey guys! There could be more cities, but it is important to !!!BUY!!! SCSs games, not to download them!
ReplyDeleteHope that Germany is much bigger from getting from Poland to Portugal in ETS, then Yes,Perfect game.
ReplyDeletePoland seems small in this map, hope there will be patch to it later on, and I'm dissapointed that there's no Spain nor Portugal. Anyway, someone will probably make their own map because SCS said that map editor will be much easier, hope we get some information about map editor too.
Great work SCS, I've counted 52 towns!
ReplyDeletePlease add just 1-2 cities in Hungary, just Győr, Budapest, Szeged, Debrecen or Nyíregyháza, because these tranzit routes, + Zalaegerszeg from to Ljubljana in Slovenia.
ReplyDeleteNice job boys ;)
Awesome, looks a lot like the old 18WOS series
ReplyDeleteAnonymous said...
ReplyDeleteCroatia doesn't stand a chance does it? Considering Rijeka (Croatia) and Koper (Slovenia) are the most important ports on this side of the Adriatic, it could be at least a "maybe" part of the game. KIU SCS! :)
I agree with that because I'm from Slovenia and these ports are very important. A lot of trucks from Hungary, Czech republic, Slovakia, Poland comes to these ports. They are very important for East Europe.
Hungary and Romania missing...And it looks like German Truck Simulator...too many autobahns in the game..germany and germany...we would lovely like to see in game the countries of Hungary and Romania ! Greets from Hungary !!!
ReplyDeleteSieht klasse aus. Schade das es die Balkanländer nicht gibt. wäre cool wenn es vielleicht noch mit rein packen könnte. Aber ansonsten sieht es einfach Weltklasse und überragend aus :) Dickes Lob an alle die daran beteiligt waren :)
ReplyDeleteBuild you other cities in france ? le mans nantes or bordeau
ReplyDeletethx for wip
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteJust make what you can do as interesting to drive as possible and make it feel still sim like and not arcade, that's all I ask. You said in Feb blog that the cities will be 3 x bigger so that will be good. I like others are very much looking forward to the release so we can get on that virtual road. More content will be welcome after release date when you can provide it.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the long and enduring tedious work SCS :)
hopefully it gives whole france, more cities in switzerland, italy and austria,and the citiy FREIBURG in Germany. but in the moment it seems to be very good
ReplyDeleteIs Spain not appear in the simulator?
ReplyDeleteThis looks like German truck simulator 2!!! And where is scandinavia?
ReplyDeleteCity: Nosovice - Czech (Hyundai)
ReplyDeleteThank you and never know the exact release date?
You should atleast add all the countries that are in the european union. You dodn't add Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria, maybes some other ones, and you should add the european part of Russia, tahat would be cool.
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteI love that you have added so many cities, looks awesome! As a scandinavian I would love to see at least one scandinavian country too. It wouldn`t be hard to make a danish city for instance, just some miles above from Kiel. A city in southern Sweden shouldn`t be that hard either. Since you had much of southern Europe in ETS1, (Italy, Spain, Portugal, southern France etc) some northern countries would be awesome in this game! :)
Also, one thing that could improve the game and make it more real, is different speed limits on the motorways in the different countries. Make for instance free speed some places in Germany, where the AI drives really fast, that would be amazing! As a truck driver you would need to focus more on the traffic, and the countries will feel more different to drive in.
Best regards from Norway
Baltic please! (Estonia, latvia and Lithuainia)
ReplyDeleteNice to hear you are planning to make a denser infrastructure. To me this is far more important than adding whole Europe to the map.
ReplyDeleteLove it so far and I hope all people will buy your game so big patches can be released after distribution
Scs your doing a great job however i do think that more citys needs to be added mayby you could do addons or expantion packs.
ReplyDeleteIt already looks like more cities than German Truck Simulator, stretching across a greater amount of land. And with the UK, it will be even better. And after you do some other stuff, it will really be great. I'm glad you guys are showing stuff like this, so we can get an overview of what the game will be like. Thank you for staying up so late to post such great news.
ReplyDeleteAfter the release of the game based on the sales you could decide to provided the DLC with various content: such as new maps or new gadget or new additional liveries for trucks or new types of trailers, etc. etc. Just a bit of fantasy, they do so many software companies, is an intelligent way to increase the longevity of the product, to whet the interest of the customer and of course to earn extra money.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeletenice work. in could make an extra pack with scandinavian it could be awesome :D
ReplyDeletefrom Denmark
Looks very nice, although I would have liked to see the Nordic countries too. But that's not a big loss, I will buy the game no matter what.
ReplyDeleteAnd please people, buy the game if you are going to play it. I know that even many of the people posting comments on this blog will just download a pirated version. It's sad, because SCS deserves and needs the money.
If I ever win a lottery, I hope you take donations. :)
Very nice work SCS!!!Please add the other countries of europe union!!!Greetings from GREECE!!!
ReplyDeleteguys come on, I hope this is far from being complete - this begs to change, I know UK will be added up but Spain, Portugal, Italy - and then the eastern Europe with so many interesting roads through Slovenia-Hungary-Romania to at least another 5-6 cities in Poland (!)
ReplyDeleteI would suggest a system that would allow more random delivery points than just a warehouse. Something along the lines of every gas station can receive petrol from somewhere, however when you deliver you have to drive empty back to the petrol hub. Or the container lots that were scattered around ET would accept "old" containers for restoration, then you would get a new container at that location and take it to get your next load.
ReplyDeleteAs far as the map is concerned, I would suggest something along the line of Train Simulator and the expansion system they have.
ReplyDeleteReally guys: I'm not one of these people who keep saying "Oh I want Romania in the game! Plzplz", but seriously: this is quite a disappointment. Ofcourse, the cities which will be in the game will probably be awesome, to say the least, but I'm afraid the game will feel quite.. homogenous.
ReplyDeleteI have ofcourse played German Truck Simulator and while I liked the cities, the countryside was mostly the same. You've picked a region of Europe which ofcourse is not entirely the same, but which looks so. To me it looks like you just took German Truck Simulator, added a few cities around and ofcourse added a lot of non-scenery related stuff.
You spent a lot of time in this game and it shows. It's okay, but it's more like a game which should be called "German Truck Simulator: Crossing the Border". The game revolves around Germany and at times you get to visit a part of a neighbouring country. If you're able to, I would really recommend you to expand the covered land to the west: southern France, Spain and Portugal. This is not motivated by the 'oh it's my homecountry, please add it'-motivation: it's because this part of Europe is entirely different in terms of climate, people and, most importantly, scenery. The landscape in northern Germany is very different from the landscape in southern Portugal, but you know this ofcourse, so that shouldn't be a surprise. What I'm trying to say is: try to add some countries which will add some variation to the 'cold' northern countries like Germany and The Netherlands.
It is a good start, certainly: you've spent a lot of man-hours and it shows. You now possess the perfect opportunity to expand the playable region which is an opportunity you should definitely use, as it will greatly benefit the overall game experience and most probably sales. We have been waiting for a while for this game now, but trust me: we would all rather wait a year longer than to get our hands on an unfinished game which has so much more potential in it.
Keep up the good work,
Sybren P.
agree Sybren P.
ReplyDeletebut they would just ask for help on building a map, out there is so many crazy talented modders....yeah we know that after release we need make some changes here and there, like always....keep going SCS.
a když nebudete dělat nové státy v budoucnu vy, komunita už si poradí :D
ReplyDeleteIs there also going to be season-changing in ETS2?
ReplyDeleteAnd it doesn't look like that you have licences from DAF, or do you have them?
NOOOO!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat happened with the Italy, or Spain? Where is west part of France, where is Portugal? :(
full list of cities in ETS2 according to what is seen on the map:
ReplyDeletePOLAND
Wroclaw, Poznan, Szczecin
CZECH REPUBLIC
Praha, Brno
SLOVAKIA
Bratislava
AUSTRIA
Vienna, Linz, Salzburg, Innsbruck
ITALY
Verona, Milan, Torino
SWITZERLAND
Geneve, Zurich, Bern
FRANCE
Lyon, Dijon, Metz, Strasbourg, Reims, Paris, Lille, Calais (port)
BENELUX
Luxembourg, Liege, Bruxelles, Gent, Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Gronigen (port?)
GERMANY
Dresden, Berlin, Rostock, Magdebourg, Leipzig, Erfurt, Frankfurt, Kiel (port), Hamburg, Brema, Hanover, Kassel, Norymberg, Munchen, Stuttgart, Manheim, Dortmund, Cologne, Dusseldorf, Essen, Osnabruck
That's 52, so I assume that the UK that is said to be added will have other 8 cities - my guesses are:
UK
Dover (port), London, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff , Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow
cheers!
I agree with most of the posts here.. I'm also not a type of whining ass, that keeps muttering add my country or I will kill you but I was waiting a long, LONG time for this to be revealed as it's already over 2 years you SCS is working on the game and I thought it's going to blow my head off - I thought that was the reason behind WHY the game is taking so long to produce..I thought I was going to see really magnificient EUROPE as in the title of the game. From Portugal to Baltic States (yes, they are in UE now!) on East..from beautiful sceneries of Balcans on the South (heck, maybe even a bit of wild Turkey, at least the European to Istambul!) to freezing lands od northern Scandinavia..and instead I, as a normal European guy living somewhere and is supposed to buy the game, will get half of the game cities in Germany.
ReplyDeleteWhat a dissapointment.
seriously SCS haven't you thought that while making half of the ETS2 dedicated to German market where you will sell now...100k copies, you could have made twice as much if you have instead left Germany with nice, round 10 cities and went for whole Spain, Portgual, whole Poland, Romania, Turkey, Croatia, Greece,Norway, Sweden, Finland..make another few cities there and you would get so much more attention from people in those territories then..for me easy calculation 100k Germans vs 500k of the buyers from those countries above which you won't get.
ReplyDeleteShame to lose it like that!!
I want turkey greece and the oter european states
ReplyDelete50+ Cities is great news, will be just like the good old days of 18 wos :)
ReplyDeletelooking at first at this map is quite a shock, it seems such a small region covered-but then i start counting and it's over 50 cities, which means around 60 when you are done with UK..and I start to imagine what great game it will be with such a density and further addons..good job SCS
ReplyDeletehey scs , very nice work !!
ReplyDeleteas someone else said before , it would be very nice some cities of greece to be included!
Hello could you put Macedonia with cities: Skopje,Bitola please thank you :D
ReplyDeleteWell - when it was clear that map will cover only "central" Europe and UK, I was absolutely OK with that, because I expected for months that for example Czech Republic will be made way more detailed and let's say five biggest cities will be included. I'm sure that Prague and Brno are made well (of course I remember screenshots of Prague circle and other CZ screens too); but why there are not Pilsen, Hradec Kralove and Ostrava? I see much smaller cities on the map!
ReplyDeleteSame thing with Austria and Slovakia. Sure, in case of Slovakia it's obvious that Bratislava is on east border of current map, but Zilina isn't much more eastwards and should be inculede. And there is space for Graz and Klagenfurt in Austria. And where (the hell) is Venice, probably second Italian most worldwide known city?
So, if there will be map expansion in future, my wish would be - add remaining important cities in covered region and then consider expansion to other countries. ;-)
Very nice work. We want Euro Truck Simulator 3, 4 and 5.
ReplyDeleteAdd scandinavia to ets 2 please!!! including Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland!
ReplyDeleteThere is no need to explain about the UK map not being merged in.
ReplyDeleteAnyone who keeps on checking this site would of seen the Eurotunnel post, and where does the Eurotunnel go between? UK and France. Anyway, I'm very impressed with the progress that has been made, and this looks like it will be a few million times better than any other game I've seen!
Well done SCS :)
I am REALLY disappointed about you. How could you not add so many countries where you know you have so many fans? How could you? Why would anybody from another country buy this if his country is not included? Of course we will modify it, edit the map and other stuff, but it's not the same!
ReplyDeleteThink about this and add the other countries from the EU.
I am wondering if this is actually a teaser. If you look at the top of the picture it says "Headquarters Selection" so there could very well be more cities that aren't on this map because they don't have the headquarters option. Also we don't know how old the picture really is
ReplyDeleteWill it have garages like in G.T.Sim. ?
ReplyDeleteit's finally time to say it - the "fans" potential is not so important here, the money that flows from the markets on the other side is. I think the density and availability of cities strictly resembles the income of SCS from last years - there is no other explanation. How should we understand THIRTY cities in Germany-Austria-Switzerland region (rondomedia) vs five cities in France or THREE cities in Poland? and zero for Romania (huge numbers of fans there) or any of the Balkanic countries (Greece??). Hate pirates, buy the games so maybe your territories will be included next time or in expansions, now it's only the money and the Germans are paying it seems..
ReplyDeleteWell, why don't you release game (Not yet) with a decent map (Such as this, include a few countries) and continue on more maps/places after that, release as DLC's, paid or free.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with Danyiel West. But if they are going to add all European countries, it could be possible that the game will be postponed untill the end of 2012.
ReplyDeleteI agree about Croatia. It would mean alot for game. I would like to see in some patch that you upgrade the map with balkan countrys or even adriatic route all down to Greece and Turkey.
ReplyDeletedoe ook de viaduc millau plz in ets2
ReplyDeleteSCANDINAVIA Please!
ReplyDeleteSplendid coverage. Can't wait till release. Keep up the outstanding work SCS Software team.
ReplyDeleteSo, what is this? German Truck Simulator 2? Well, I guess the name "Euro Truck Simulator" fits very well after all, just like European Union is run by Germany and France.
ReplyDeleteI'm kinda disappointed right now, because Europe is so much more than just Germany and the few countries around it.
Esse Jogo ta muito bom nao vejo a hora de lançar otimo trabalho SCS belissimo trabalho
ReplyDeleteall the true facts were stated already- Europe as a whole is such a beauty when you think of Italian landscapes, Spanish magnifique scenery, Croatian coastline, Slovenia mountaineery roads, Romania views and many others..Germany is boring as hell comparing to that, deal with it.

ReplyDeleteDefinitely more than 60 City, UK is more than 8 city,Because UKTS has 18 city, ETS2 UK will be more
Quantity doesn't count but the quality certainly will. Let's have what they been working on and hopefully when released it will be obvious what SCS have been doing all this time. More quantity can follow after release by way of patch/dlc.
ReplyDeleteFrom the map it looks you're still not finished with cities.. So I hope, you'll add Kosice, and wont let Hungary and Poland look that empty.
ReplyDeleteThanks SCS!
Good luck from Slovakia
true I think that the cities I listed will be there but the more the better - maybe even 18 cities would be awesome for the Brits.
ReplyDeletepeople who say that this is little, check this out:

Sure there might be "more" countries included (Spain) but look at the number of cities from original Euro Truck Simulator 1. The quantity and I hope the quality in ETS2 will be smashing the first game like 100x times!
I have to apologise for my earlier comment. I should be thanking you for your awesome work and effort you have put in this game, instead of complaining. Like some have said, quality over quantity.
ReplyDeleteSo thank you SCS, can't wait for the game to be released. Hopefully it will be in the Nordic stores right from the start.
thats good news, the map :D
ReplyDeletegood work scs, are that all motorways or is this an older mapview??
nice number of comments - I was like whoa what happened in just one day. But I understand all the emotions flying here - myself I would love to see some of Slovenia but I understand that it might not be possible because there are few reasons.
ReplyDeleteThe first is most obvious, money. Slovenia isn't a good place for SCS to get money I don't know if there are any of those games in normal shops here I think not. So making Slovenia if not necessary (like alongtheway Switzerland they couldn't leave like a big gaping nothing there) is not along the concept of getting the money back.
It's good that someone has posted here a link to the map from Euro truck simulator (uk addition) where you have like 20 cities..simple roads and nothing more. Here you have already over 50 cities and without UK (maybe another 15 cities) so together 65 cities..that is a very impressive numbers but I think scs got caught themself in a trap-meaning they had such a big number of cities and roads in central europe but to make France Spain Italy Poland Romania like that too would mean creating another 100 cities. So I understand the reason behind and I say - thank you SCS I hope to get your game and maybe someone will make some mod with my country.
===>> All users here on this blog! please buy ets 2 for awesome ets 3!! Looking on this map im wondering if there will be spain? Anyway its fuc**** great scs :) Keep it up! :)
ReplyDeleteOhh and you can also see the roads on this picture! :D if you look closley
ReplyDeleteSomething i don't understand is why you don't have enlarged the scale of the Map.
ReplyDeleteyes, you can see the roads and motorways on the map, but the question is if that all roads or is this not topical.
ReplyDeleteThey should really start to work hard, If we could help with the game in any way like translating and modeling and other stuff then they wouldn't waste so much time.
ReplyDeletePlz SCS offer help to us, there will be some people that can do Textures,Moddeling,Translating and more.
You would get good help from us and choose the best projects to use it in your game.
If you're interested, I ironed the road network in color. To better appreciate the work done.
ReplyDeleteI repeat one of my posts so that it read:
"It's really a good job. I'm pretty sure you will do some update that will add on country or city.
But what is this in this image is already a very good thing. Especially not seen yet the cities of the United Kingdom.
I understand the disappointment of some people who do not find their country, but we must understand that it's not that easy for SCS Software, and try to have hope they will release patches to add some other country, I am thinking of Spain or Portugal.
I think you, the development team and the person who post the news here, must be very tired. When I see the time when the news are posted (even on weekends, few people work on weekends), I see you have a lot of courage and I guess you must all be united, make more hours to try to keep the studio.
I updates the blog very often, at least ten times a day. It's like a drug for me and others I think. We all love your work and tonight, I wish once again to thank you.
And I wish you courage.
Good luck to you."
And also:
"Improve and facilitate the map editor would be good .."

Sorry for my bad english, i am french.
Titou.
Super, more than 50 cities. nice, cool.
ReplyDeleteI don't need more country.
More country in ETC 3?
When the date of issue?
Sorry for my english
i personally think that you guys are doing a amazing job on this and i hope that you continue to make it even better. i just want to say that dont base it all on the initial sales remember that there will be a lot of people buying it at christmas :) keep up the great work guys.
ReplyDeleteNice work, Titou! Thanks. :-)
ReplyDeleteI was really looking for the base of the whole europe. I wasn't expecting that SCS would have created all the roads in europe, but I would loved if You had added the base for scandinavia, finland etc.. Just to make it easier for map-creators to add the parts of europe You didn't have time/money to create.. I did suggest this already before in this blog, many months ago.. I didn't ask to model the whole europe, only asked if You could add the base for whole europe. This is really disappointing to see that there is only the central europe covered in the base map.. The area You have created is going to look fabulous, but there are many people who like to drive in their own country, and the coverage of base map just makes it more difficult for map-creators to add new areas to the map!!
ReplyDelete@Titou thats cool :)
ReplyDeleteBlue = motorways
Yellow = Small roads?
Yes mikEWronaPL ;p
ReplyDeletePlease put Serbia in game or in other patches and Whole Balkan... Sorry on my bad english
ReplyDelete@Luka please buy ets 2 so they will do it ^^
ReplyDeletewhy is scandinavian not in the game
ReplyDeletemikEWronaPL (Dobry pomysl) Good idea, The people who find it dissapoiting that there's no country they live in, then they need to buy the game to get their updates in the future procces of the game which gives us more patches and functions to the game.

Isn't it good enough? 3 times bigger map, with 3 times bigger cities and denser web of routes between them...
ReplyDeleteStop complaining and support their work. They are working while most of us are sitting here thinking the things are easy to do.
Great job SCS!
Best regards.

ReplyDeletegreat work scs
ReplyDeleteWhat Gui above (and others before) said - I dare you to make your own game if you think it is easy. dc:
ReplyDeleteKeep up the impressive work, SCS, you make me wish I could place pre-order already! (c8
Put in a corner of the map in Turkey :)
ReplyDeleteHungary not in the game? :(
ReplyDeleteBigger cityes in the game?
ReplyDeleteactually I think Hungary (probably Budapest) has a big chance to still get into the game, the area seems to be lightened up so I think there are still thinking or connecting it already to the main game.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, happy to see that the game will be at least 3 times bigger then the first part. Hope my wallet will survive that ;)
i like this concept-i would just wish that SCS wrap it up with what countryes you see here. So full UK france poland slovenia hungary
ReplyDeletewOULD BE GREAT IF YOU WOULD HAVE A POST CALLED ¨PEOPLE´S QUESTIONS¨ CLICK ON MY NAME YOU´LL SEE WHAT IS. sorry 4 the mistakes I am only a 7grade student and I am learning English for only 2 years :D. GREETINGS FROM ROMANIA
ReplyDeleteSo... the game is ready to be finished?
ReplyDeleteWhy do you left out nearly whole E 35 the only part you built is Gotthard. But this Highway is very important, connects Northern Sea (Rotterdam) with Mediterranean Sea (Roma). Please don't forget the Backbones of European trucking industry.
ReplyDeleteat all
ReplyDeleteplease note that this picture is a WIP (work in progress)
so it seems that we are waiting now for UK to be done (and maybe Hungary?) and the game should be out in what..2 months?
ReplyDeletePlease, make Scandinavians and all balkans countrys (Serbia and around)
ReplyDeleteWhen you say denser Road Coverage, Does that mean the normal roads wee see every day driving round and also the roads that make up our routes through country side. Will we see more of the areas that most hgv drivers have to navigate day in day out?
ReplyDeleteWhere is the scandinavian countries??
ReplyDeleteNORWAY,SWEDEN, FINLAND AND DENMARK MUST BE INGAME :D
I am a truck driver from FINLAND yes i drive a real truck in here and i drive the ets simulator games too and my biggest hope is thy see Finland and the other nordic countrys in the new ETS2 map and i do not mean a mod butt i mean a real map that has been made by the good people of the scs company so PLEASE CAN I DRIVE IN FINLAND in the new ets2 game.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Spain?
ReplyDeleteSpain is one of the countries with more trucks.
^ NORWAY-TRUCKER: Finland is not part of Scandinavia.
ReplyDeleteBut... anyway, it's more or less a central european sim. and Scandinavia is once again left out. I'm dissapointed after over 2 years of waiting, but it's your call.
And i'm sure the game itself going to be great, and congrats to all the germans.
How I send a message some time later, you can make more games of "one country" (German Truck Simulator, UK Truck Simulator), and make a code that "unit" the differents maps that user has installed in your computer.
ReplyDeleteTruth is that ETS2 map should be expanded in future to north and to south, primarily for very different scenery. I think we all loved PTTM/Haulin maps just because of this: snowy Canada, moderate Midwest, tropical Florida, desert in Mexico... and Europe has all these clima too - snowy Scandinavia, desert in Spain, even signs of tropical clima in very south Balkans.
ReplyDeleteBut first thing to do is to complete central/moderate part of Europe. Only Germany and Benelux are done well. And UK, of course, it only need to be finished.
Yes, time is short, it doesn't need to be done now. SCS could release addons (even paid DLCs, I want to support and they deserves it) some months after game launch. But I pray the first addon will complete central Europe.
People remember that this shot's taken long time ago .. Wich means the map's maybe now twice or tripple bigger !
ReplyDeleteGood Work SCS :)!!
^ Nope. This is current and probably final version of map for _initial_ release. Only UK will be added, they only still merging it from UKTS to ETS2 and improving.
ReplyDeleteOf course expansions are likely, and this is what this topic is about. ;-)
@ Anonymous regarding Finland: It is very much Scandinavia. Scandinavia consists of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, in alphabetical order. (c:
ReplyDeleteWith some luck (read: people buying the game, not pirating it) we will at least get it later, in expansions.
Addon packs someone really hit the button there look at train simulator etc they all do addon packs for 3.99 etc dont pull our trousers down with addons keep the cost sensible and more people will update with addons.
ReplyDelete^ "will" above should be "will perhaps"...
ReplyDeleteI would rather wait 'til 2015 just to make this game feel like the REAL Euro Truck Simulator. It's a disappointment for me to wait so long just to see this. I thought ETS2 will be better, with bigger map ( oh yes, SCS already did that ), with more countries.. but I'm having doubts now into buying this game.. ETS2 is a wonderful game to me looking at the improvement they have done, but I think looking at this, it doesn't suite my expectations anymore.. Sorry SCS..
ReplyDeletegreat work SCS, keep it up..!!! =)
ReplyDeleteSCS is BIAS in choosing the countries to include in the game.!!!
ReplyDeletegreat map, I can see some motorways, can you show the motorways and single roads scs???
ReplyDeleteMAP AT LAST! :D
ReplyDeleteSHOW MORE GREAT STUFF
^ TruckerGal:
ReplyDelete"Scandinavia[1] is a cultural, historical and ethno-linguistic region in northern Europe that includes the three kingdoms of Denmark, Norway and Sweden, characterized by their common ethno-cultural heritage and language. Modern Norway and Sweden proper[2] are situated on the Scandinavian Peninsula, whereas modern Denmark is situated on the Danish islands and Jutland. The term Scandinavia is usually used as a cultural term, but in English usage, it is occasionally confused with the purely geographical term Scandinavian Peninsula, which overlaps with Scandinavia. Sometimes the term Scandinavia is also taken to include Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Finland, on account of their historical association with the Scandinavian countries.[3] Such usage, however, is considered inaccurate in Scandinavia, where the term Nordic countries instead refers to a broader group comprising both Scandinavia itself as well as countries and territories that are historically associated with the Scandinavian countries, including Finland, Iceland, and the Faroe Islands."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandinavia
I am excited about the map. I´m full of joy about ETS2. Cant wait any longer for it :)
ReplyDeleteGood work
Just like German Truck Simulator 2 ? :( Two years and you just take map from GTS added some cities from nearly countries and called it ETS? Make me angry guys... -.-
ReplyDeleteBrazil o/
ReplyDeleteHAYAL KIRIKLIĞI!!! TÜRKİYEEEEEEEEEEEE
ReplyDeleteI think the map is full of details and new roads, parking places, motorways,borders,sight seeings and more
ReplyDeleteThink positive
ETS2 real map and game map Proportion is 1:10
ReplyDeletereal 1000KM : game 100KM
GTS is 1:20
real 1000KM : game 50KM
ETS is 1:50
real 1000KM : game 20KM
ETS2 of Germany is 1:10
Therefore ETS2 scale is huge
I hope so that he scale i bigger, I mean the distance are bigger, that I Cant drive from Poland to Netherlands in 2min....
ReplyDeleteSCS can the Player change the number plates for the trucks?
ReplyDeleteyou did a great job. this is an incredible map and i think that with the other things of the game like costumize and route advisor this will be a beautiful game. but i think that you should delete some cities from german and added some cities in spain france portugal denmark ireland and also scandinavia, only 3 or 4 cities in each country. would be great. but that still a very very beautiful map. good job
ReplyDeletesorry for my english i'm italian
