We owe you an update on some things happening now which are already frequently discussed in comments.
Truck brand licensing situation is clearing up, and we don't have just good news. Despite years of trying to approach truck and trailer manufacturers, and in some case very extensive negotiations, we are far from securing all major truck brands. For a long time, we have been showing you in-development screenshots and movies with proper branding. It was a part of our negotiation strategy: to show truck manufacturers how public - our fans - react to real brands in our games. Fans' reaction has been without exception always positive, people are excited about driving "real" trucks - but even that is not strong enough argument it seems. As you may have seen in recent movies and screenshots from the game finding their way on the Internet, we are now in the process of switching back to "Majestic" and "Valiant." The destiny of another major brand still hangs in the balance - after two years of discussions, there are only precious few days to see if the negotiations are concluded successfully at the last minute.
Steam Greenlight situation is tough, too. We have been giving a good fight, but recently it looks like our little campaign for our fans to vote on Steam is losing steam a bit. It's not a lost cause yet, but our chances of making it into Top 10 anytime soon are not too high. In fact recently the number of votes for ETS2 seems to be slipping compared to the average votes of Top 100 games in the rankings. Here is a screen-grab from current Greenlight statistics available for developers.
We are not losing faith that Euro Truck Simulator 2 can still win your hearts even without all brands covered. The release of the game is only a new beginning, with any luck will be able to boast about good sales numbers, so we may have better arguments to persuade brand owners to join in. We are going to support the game long term with updates, fixes, and improvements, there are exciting things planned beyond initial release.
If you are eager to see some more moving pictures from ETS2, we have created a new Playlist on our YouTube channel with a collection of movies coming out of beta testing. There are 8 videos in it at the moment, but it looks like there are going to be hours of in-game footage there eventually:

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
ReplyDeletei guess this imbecile is very brand horny :O
DeleteNope, he's just polish.
DeleteYou have problem with that ??? I'm from Poland too.
DeleteImho people who are responsible for giving licenses in Volvo and Mercedes should gtfo from work :/. Games are the best places to show products. ETS2 could be the best commercial for brands. Young players will be able to see things that they might not know. Imagine for example 15 year old fan of truck. Lets say that he's not fan of Mercedes or Scania. After few hours spend in game he might become fan of Mercedes or Scania. Why? Because there's no better way to meet truck (except real life xD). That's all. I hope that people in Volvo and Mercedes will think same as me about development of their trucks.
greetings
D.J. - huge fan of Mercedes-Benz and happy owner of Mercedes C124
Anonymous I agree totally with you, I think you're absolutely right! want to return MERCEDES BENZ and VOLVO globetrotter!
DeleteAnonymous 2, yup, im 15, and yup, im fan of trucks, and, once again, yup, my fav truck is mercedes actros mp3, nad yup, my opinion abount trucks is based on video games ;)
DeleteSo i must agree with you
Artur Nowak, you know you should behave more mature, with the age of 15. Don't blame ScS because manufactures reject their offer.. it's their big loss, and it's very expensive to get license from those brands.
DeleteNo worries ScS, i don't think the game will collapse because of few original brands are missing , we still know how each and every truck looks like cause they are all different. I must say i didn't see this coming with the change of brands, but i understand it's necessary. To be honest i don't care to much about brands, i just want the game to be enjoyable. Thanks for your honest explaination, i think lots of people wanted that cleared of, and keep doing the good job, i look very much forward to ETS 2. cheers :)
ReplyDelete+1.
DeleteSCS, You have done and are doing what is possible, we believe in the potential of ETS 2 and cheered for the major brands of trucks can enchergar that too. As fans of trucks, the original brand makes a great lack in our simulator, but we can not abuse the effort you are making to make it as real as possible. I am also saddened by the lack of original brands, but thank you for all the work during all that time invested in ETS 2, which for me is the best simulator of all. What remains is to settle for the "make believe" and we hope that, even if slowly, SCS get all the necessary permits. I wish you great sales at launch and after launch.
DeleteTo finish and avoid ridiculous comments, I am very happy and grateful with all that you did, I'm happy with everything is ready, everything is beautiful to me, ETS 2 is great. I await the release because I dream about it every day!
SCS THANK YOU!
Wow Tiago it was a very nice comment.
DeleteTiago +10! :)
DeleteAbsolutely, Tiago. Couldn't have said it better myself :)
Deletewell there are still the MODS...fuck these truck companies and your logs.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I think as well, not in those exact words, I only mean the MOD part of your comment to be fair...
DeleteA small mod can change Valiant and Majestic into Volvo and MB, modders don't even have to change the truck itself to make it look realistic, I can't really see what's different from the real trucks.
Too bad Volvo and Mercedes, you could've had some nice attention due to ETS 2.
I understand MB though, the game doesn't have their newest truck, oh well, who cares?
Good job as always SCS, I already pre-ordered anyway! :P
I have to agree, with the first part of the first comment and all of the second. This will be the first release of a truck sim game by SCS where I am not getting ready to have to add other trucks models to replace the default models.
DeletePersonally I can not see why Volvo or Mercedes will not allow there logos to be used in this sim. In previous version I can understand it, but from the videos and playing STDS, SCS have made a big improvement on how it feels to drive a truck. Anyway after modding SCS trucking games over the past 6 years, adding the correct branding will not be a problem, and will certainly not stop me buying this simulator.
Mercedes and Volvo. not suit not to license.I'm watching videos of the game is very nice.
ReplyDeleteGood luck,I look forward to.

will this business ever heard of marketing?? idiots, what they have to lose?
ReplyDeleteRomildo - Brazil
Вы обнадежили людей с самого начала. год вы нам показывали красивые картинки и видео, с реальными логотипами грузовиков, а сейчас, перед выпуском, вы нам говорите что вот так получилось.. это не правильно. Игру больше не жду, спасибо scs.
ReplyDeleteТебе шашечки или ехать?
DeleteА разве они тебе что-то должны? Как получилось так и сделали.
DeleteНу да, как получилось.. так и скачаю игру.
DeleteТоесть ты хочешь сказать что не будешь покупать игру изза отсутствия двух значков на решетке радиатора? Мне кажется это просто оправдание твоей собственной жадности (кстати это наша русская национальная черта такая) что мешает купить игру и поставить через пару дней мод с логотипами? Сколько дебилов в нашей стране уродилось просто поражаюсь! А ты сам попробуй собери небольшую команду людей, создай за пару тройку лет игру своей мечты и посмотрим как ты будешь относиться к людям которые будут качать ее с торрентов!
DeleteУроки иди сделай для начала, дебилы, это те кто аборт не сделали, а результате чего родился ты. Езжай в Израиль, они там не жадные. Тупое животное.
DeleteIt´s bad that that the real logos not is on the truck
ReplyDeleteChill out, the modding community will fix it.
DeleteIn Mercedes case, I don't wonder why they took their brand off. Because this game doesn't even have their newest truck. Truck companies are very giant companies so it's easy to understand that they don't want to accept something as small as ~10 people's company's vision about their trucks to represent them. But still I think they are losing valuable marketing value as the same time. Although truck driving simulators are not so popular in mainstream, the people who are willing to buy these are either young people interested in truck driver's career or some older people who doesn't even use internet that much, but would immediately buy this game "to their children" as a christmas present if they knew it excisted. Either way I think the buyers will be the same people who buys real trucks too, so very stupid from truck companies to take their brands off..
DeleteIf it doesn't make steam greenlight, Wil they sell it for mac to?
ReplyDeletehope not
DeleteThey are making it for mac after Windows. It says somewhere on the Greenlight page.

What do the truck manufacturers have to lose?
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't they let the trucks be in the game?
In STDS there is only one brand the Scania & Im loving it. Real truck lover companies will put their brand in the game.. if not I'll have my own opinion and its won't be shining opinion.
DeleteIts kinda like the Porsche , so big companies like Polyphony Digital & Grand Turismo in Japan never could achieve Porsche brand being in the game. Electronic Arts got only long long time ago. Instead the name was RUFF and its was the Porsche. I don't mind if I have to make my deliveries with Scania, I've got my impression about Scania & must say Im proud to drive their truck in the game! Nuff said.
Deleteyou know RUF is a real company, search it on google.
Deleteand about your porsche problem. I think prosche has a contract with EA that the porsche brand can only be used in their games and no others
Your right.. I recall EA has a contract now as you say. It is the explanation for my "porsche problem" but believe or not I dont give a sh.. if its ruf or fur or whatever I don't like porsches.
DeleteI notice some newer videos have the trailer parking icon of Scania TDS, where as some older footage has it as the red UKTS box.
ReplyDeleteHas this been changed or is it an option you can switch between? On smaller monitors the UKTS style red box is much easier to see, so I am kind of hoping for an option.
They have switch it to the same as STDS. And we love it... :-)
DeleteNO Problem SCS

ReplyDeleteOh, after this what about something new in the 18 wheels of steel series? :D
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteNOO... Why. Why? ;(
ReplyDeletethere will always be mods for the real truck brands
ReplyDeleteIndeed.We can download these mods after the game is realeased.
Deletefuckin mercedes and volvo
ReplyDeleteSo only 2 real brands will be in ETS2? Scania and MAN? No Volvo, no Mercedes, no DAF, no Iveco. What about Renault? Will it be Runner? Not good. During the 2 years you convinced only Scania? Will it affect on the price of the game?
ReplyDeleteMaybe they wanted openable windows in their trucks? :) j/k
Cets, once again, I want to get mad. But I've discovered that you won't listen if I rant on. SCANIA and MAN is likely, Renault has the real logo, but not the real name, but what's that matter?
DeleteIt's not SCS's fault. Big companies like EA, about 50x bigger than SCS couldn't get a licence for some cars in their racing games, so really SCS, 50x smaller have done a good job. Modders WILL fix this. I've been talking to the modding community, and huge mods are being planned for ETS 2.
CETS, that last line was funny!
DeleteMark, any hints? Quite interested in the details around something new planned.
Dont worry SCS :) real logos would be solved with mod :) btw you have my support on steam, but i dont know how to register :(
ReplyDeleteI completely don't understand this truck brands. They should agree because this would be a great presentation of their trucks! I hope that they will understand this and they let they trucks to the game
ReplyDeleteP.S
Sorry for language I'm from Poland
In renault and mercedes must be gps!!!
ReplyDeleteThere will be no Mercedes, so no GPS. But there will be Majestic with device called OMG.
Deleteif the brand is gone, could you please change color of that leather around steeringwheel and seets - the porn pink one... I have never seen a Volvo with that leather sample. And also is it that hard to pay atention on details inside cabin? Just look at revcounter (non linear) in Volvo...
ReplyDeleteToo bad they do not know how to advertise and there are companies that can as fans claim from their sin. But I think the game can not just about real names Joca trucks who plays games for fun, not for the sake that they do not know what brands of cars or trucks who knows what brands come on now, how many games are market not true with real names or their names on cars? So this game can not be reduced only to the name, I think it's a pretty good game to be quite successful for a long time is also expected. Important that the trucks look just like the reality that not just call and it is nothing, now I think this is an obstacle that the game will not be released, bought and played by fans who are waiting for almost 3 years days. So far scs you my congratulations for your work. Sorry for my English not very good. Can not forget to Romania and make a map. I hope most fans will agree with me.
ReplyDeleteShame on those companies!!!
ReplyDeleteexactly. they don't know what they are missing. the dogs bark, but the caravan goes on :)
DeleteBrand Management for Dummies: If the truck companies agree to have their brands represented in the game alongside a lot of other real brands, they will, in essence, be competing. None of them will agree to be the lesser brand, and since it's a game it can be difficult for them to control how they are perceived in it. Imagine a bunch of Youtube videos with a [brand name] truck crashing into a traffic jam - how happy is the marketing department going to be about being seen in that situation?
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I do hope they would come around to letting SCS use their brands. This is, after all, the premiere trucking simulator series in the world. Car brands compete to be able to get as many models as possible in games like Gran Turismo and Forza, the truck manufacturers need to get with the program and realize the potential.
Yeah u saying that coz it was the same situation with the console simulation games. No one wanted to see crash their brand totally, and surprisingly that time someones put a lots of pictures from ferraris , totally crashed , and below there was a comment...: now what???????? materials can be deform, and accidents happening could happen. Now what????
DeleteI want the real truck marks..................
ReplyDeleteGreatings from Alex (12 and from the Netherlands and sorry for my bad English...)
I'm interested what are the obstacles to volvo and mercedes committed they trucks to the game? I'm shure that it's a stupid politic of this 2 companys because reno and scania was able to permit to make their trucks in game
ReplyDeleteP.S
Sorry for language I'm from Poland
Logos will make people mods, and you do so at this stage have done a lot and for that I respect very much your company, naturally you would like us to present all very nice and with the logos of the official, but the corruption and greed of the companies do not know the limits. SCS thank you for everything you for us to do and we always You will support!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Of course Real Brands means something but, I, for instance, want to play the game. IF real brands are not possible this time, like you said, when the game rolls out, gamers play and such, the game will be more known by most brands, and then they can think over about adding their brands to the game.
ReplyDeleteI know that they will do it, in the future!
Good luck with the project, and keep the faith!
I don't buy this game. There is no licensed brands.
ReplyDelete_
PL: Nie kupuję tej gry, nie ma licencjonowanych marek. BADZIEW!!!
ahuben2000
I co dlatego że niema oryginalnych marek nie kupisz tej gry?? zauważ że jedyna róznica to logo, nazwa i brak napisów w kabinie takich jak Fh16 czy actros.
Delete...
And that is why there is no original brands do not buy this game? note that the only difference is the logo, name, and no subtitles in the cabin such as FH16 and actros.
yes
DeleteModders will fix it.
DeleteThe brands are important but they not makes a real good game ETS is a excelent game I and hope the development of a online multiplayer, this game option will help to get more players.
ReplyDeleteas i said before so once again the truck licenses for ETS 2 game are, till now:
ReplyDeleteSCANIA TRUCKS: YES
M.A.N TRUCKS: YES
RENAULT TRUCKS: 50% YES/ 50% NO LICENSE
VOLVO TRUCKS: NO LICENSE
MERCEDES TRUCKS: NO LICENSE
DAF TRUCKS: NO LICENSE
IVECO TRUCKS: NO LICENSE
Thanks for this list, its show me something about the passion of the brands.. I knew it, but good to see which is the STRONGEST band... :PPPPPPPPPPP
Delete2 emblems will not stop the true fans to buy this masterpiece of simulation games ;) !

DeleteI dont care if the real brands arent in the game once the game is fun to play.
ReplyDeletewell real logos or not it still gives the modding community something to do :P
ReplyDeleteThat's a disappointment but it doesn't change my mind buying the game. After what they have done it's still worth buying it.
ReplyDeleteI noticed in the picture of the Majestic that inside the cabin is still the Mercedes-Benz logo. In the Valiant it's already fixed.
Good job so far, you ain't there yet. So keep the beer in the refrigerator until than! ;)
It's not the real logo, but a tip, don't look at another Mercedes logo, then to you, it will be the real logo in ETS 2! :D
DeleteYep, that's right. Don't worry about. After release ETS2 we (fans) help to make game more realistic. Brands and engine sounds for MB, VV and IV.
ReplyDeleteSCS deserves better!!!
ReplyDeleteIt sucks,but I will not blame SCS because of some arrogant/old-fashioned truck manufacturers,they probably think that pc games are made for small babies.
Mercedes-Benz current cars design is made for rich gypsys and old farts...that's all I can say
Oh and mom ask these small babies what you like to be when you grow up? kids: TRUCK DRIVER!!! mom: and which type of truck u want to drive my little sweets? kids: mmmmm I think those I've played in ETS2! mom: very well than.
Delete+1 Anonymous!
DeleteLooks like they'll have a hard time finding a Valient for sale!!!
I am very disappointed.
ReplyDeletevan benne magyar hungarian?
ReplyDeleteHungarian language, it is also ?
Mivel Magyarorszag nincs benne Romaniaval egyutt, nem hiszem hogy lesz de valaki biztos tud csinalni egy forditast.. de az angol manapsag mar annyira nepszeru, hogy szinte mindenkinek erteni kellene.
DeleteBiztos hogy lesz benne, mert kellett magyart fordítani nekik. Nem kell aggódni.

ReplyDeleteBrands on trucks means the game company gets money from the truck companies.For us is not big deal but for the developers IT IS!They loose money from it.BE WISE THINK WIDER!!!!
DeleteIt's the other way around ._.
Deleteyou are totally wrong there AnonymousSeptember 20, 2012 8:30 PM SCS has to pay a lot of cash to get the license, and the manufacturers gets cash for having their brand in the game as well. No money for developers, only fans who buy their products

ReplyDeleteI hope Scania will be in the game and i think it will because of STDS so theres hope in that. What about Renalit trucks aswell. So theres still some hope.
ReplyDeleteRenalit something new brand? :P
DeleteMods will fix it, fans will enjoy it, SCS will safe some money for not paying to Mercedes and Volvo for using their logos. Seems like everyone is a winner. Well exept Mercedes and Volvo. :)
ReplyDeleteWe could try writing (politely) to them on their Facebook profiles to show that we want to see their brand in the game:
ReplyDeletehttps://www.facebook.com/MercedesBenz
https://www.facebook.com/VolvoTrucks
yesss Niall You 'r right. I try it. Thank you very much
Deletenice try!
DeleteHow a rubbish game like NFS Shift2 have plenty of licensed cars?
ReplyDeleteThis is not fair,SCS deserves better.
LOLZ.. thats an EA product.. why are you wondering.. EA big.
DeleteI'm not wondering and EA is one big...shit
DeleteYeah, but that big shit has also a shit load of cash it can invest in something like that. Also the publicity the manufacturers get from an EA game is probably 1000 times bigger than what these truck manufacturers would get from this. Also, I don't think something like having their brand in a trucking simulator would do any good business wise for those truck companies. It's all about that.
DeleteI don't mind about them too much. I want the trucks look good, sound good, drive good and for the game to be good. A little logo on the steering wheel is a very minor thing (although it won't hurt anyone).
"Nevermind the brand-bollocks, here are sex-trucks!"
ReplyDeleteHi developers,
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could release an download for an "real logo mod".
So the mod is good quality and the brand owners can't complain
OLÁ COMO POSSO ADQUIRIR ESTA VERSÃO AQ NO BRASIL
ReplyDeleteI like SCS what you did with Volvo and Mercedes look almost real, i was afraid that you will do an ugly badge vor te Volvo, but you managed to crete a beautiful one, i personlay like it.
ReplyDeleteI hope Man will still be licenced, because you are talking about it, " The destiny of another major brand still hangs in the balance - after two years of discussions, there are only precious few days to see if the negotiations are concluded successfully at the last minute."
I think they mean renault since in some videos the ingame name is runner while the logo is still the one from renault
DeleteYeap, now i read it more carefully, thx. I hope they will not lose this one too.
DeleteI really hope that Renault give license to SCS. I don't care too much about Merc or Volvo, but I want to drive a real Renault Magnum. Or, for better say, I hope to drive a licensed Renault Magnum. But if SCS don't take the license, I hope that they do it better than GTS. I really don't like the GTS' Magnum cause it's too different from the real one. For now I can only cross my finger.
ReplyDeleteNever give up SCS, I'll always support you guys!!!
I don't mind Valiant or Majestic at all. Call them whatever you feel like. It is the sim and truck driver experience I want. This will be a great simulator! :) :)
ReplyDelete+1
DeleteBTW SCS, i forgot to say big thank you for making ETS 2 beta testing video playlist, now all the videos from the beta are there and not hard to find on the internet, big thx for that.
ReplyDeleteThe game will not be a fail if Volvo and Mercedes aren`t in the game, yeah it is a sad news but, maybe after a few months they will give you green and you can make a patch adding the licences.
I hope Renault will be licenced, i don`t like the Magnum, but i like the Premium. :D
Oh and a question for you, the engine sound will be "real", i mean it will be from the recording session with the real trucks or you will change that too.
dont forget the great modding community will be adding to the game, so its only going to get better, and better, plus the updates and other items ( information yet to be released ) will add to the game
DeleteM@x
I`m not a fan of modding Max, but if it is made by SCS or someone as good as SCS staff then i will install that mode.
DeleteI understand, alot of people wont or even cant use mods, as alot of the time, the mods can slow a computer down, I dont mind certain mods, but I don't thing that the truck branding is going to really put me off the game
DeleteA new video uploaded to Utube, this is a long video at over an hour long, without any speeded up footage

Route Length - 631 Miles
Game Time - 25 Hours And 42 Mins
Real Time - 58 Mins ( Approx )
A loverly drive, in a Magnum, mostly "A" roads, and a bit of motorway thrown in, it made a nice change to drive mainly on winding roads, than a motorway, took me a bit longer to do it this way though but it was less boring than constant motorway driving.

Hey SCS, those companhies will lose so much money. You can be sure that ETS 2 will sell more than you expect!!!
ReplyDeleteBest regards from Brazil!
I dont care if they let you use the brand name or not cause Joe public will come out with his own mod to add them anyway.
ReplyDeleteHey guys, I was looking through the game files in STDS and noticed that there's a Kia C'eed in the trafficstoarge.sii and I've found files for it elsewhere, but I've just never seen it in game. Does anyone want to prove me wrong or check out the files and see if you can enable it. You can never have enough traffic vehicles!
ReplyDeleteWTF is wrong with all you idiots "OMG If there's no branding it's REALLY bad" and "cos there's no branding, I'm never gonna buy this game"
ReplyDeleteDid any of you have any of the earlier SCS games? like 18WOS, ALH, ETS? And didn't you, like me, find, very easily, a mod to make all the trucks have real names and logos? There will be mods: I predict within 2 weeks of launch maximum, to have real brand names and companies and stuff.
Obviously, it'd be nice to have real logos and stuff from the outset, but if the manufacturers won't play ball, it can't be like that - and SCS can't release it with unlicensed brands. One thing I want, and one thing only, that's the game launched ASAP. One thing I DON'T want is any delay caused solely by trying to get brand-name permission. That would be a bad thing, for certain. The sooner SCS get the game launched and earning revenue, the sooner they can work on updates and on other games, and, maybe, in a later update, they can include branding if they get permission.
Me, I say get the game out as soon as possible, screw the branding for companies that won't play ball, and let the modders do that, because SCS can then turn around and say "well, it wasn't us that did it".
Me, I'd like to see an update on ALH using the ETS2/STDS game engine... :D
+ 10! :)
Delete+20!
Deletein ETS2, the traffic movement, add the Bus. How is it that no buses in the entire game?
ReplyDeleteYeah, the AI traffic could do with some more variation, a coach would be cool to see driving on Motorways and in the towns :D
DeleteWow I'm so very very dispossession that Volvo possible wont make the game but its possible that's because their new FH isn't on the game as well as Mercedes equivalent that's why the are holding off. Me personnely I think we fans of the game should start a fan riot on Volvo and tell them they should pay SCSSoft for them to use the brand.or maybe get the press involved?! Please tell us why they wont to drop the branding of ETS2 and what there main argument is for us who are confused
ReplyDelete+1
DeletePretty sure they make you sign a NDA before you even get to talk to someone at those companies. So don't expect to hear why. At least not unless you're willing to try to think as they do.
DeleteI'm thinking that maybe their truck sales are based on brand value and not on actual truck interior design and feel, ie, they prefer to sucker ppl into buying on impulse and because they think it's the cool thing to have and being able to tell friends you have a 'insert company name'. But with a game like ETS2 you'd get to actually see and experience it for yourself, and they won't stand behind that... (but can't sue either since they didn't agree to show their brand and thus can't claim misrepresentation, nor can they sue on the basis that the trucks are accurately modeled but didn't get permission as that'd be the same as saying that they're true to life and can be used as a guide before purchase)
Least that's what I'd do if my sole motivation was to focus on quarterly revenues and mid term profits.
PS: Sorry for the overall dark tone, I tend to take it a little too personal when it comes to big companies.
someone can tell me which companies have already authorized the use of the symbols of the marks for the game? Because I've already sent several messages via facebook for some companies.
ReplyDeleteBased on other comments, seems Scania and MAN are in, while negotiations with Renault are still ongoing.
DeleteMercedes, Volvo, DAF, Iveco are out, for now.
Ah well, both are somehow to be expected. Carmanufacturers are getting more selfish by the day, demaning more ridiculous things and a larger sum of money before they get in a game that can never harm their reputation.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Greenlight thing.... you might as well call it a day. I think what I feared for became reality: too many horror games, and too many wanna-be titles with the word ''Simulator'' in the title, making people think ETS2 is also just another sim.
Too bad, but oh well. You guys do the best you can.

Плавали, Знаем)))
DeleteDo not worry, SCS Software developers have worked hard and if they will not give licensias, already a mod fix. I really do not find any difference in the exterior and interior, plus it does not need to see Mercedes or Volvo, I care about is driving.
ReplyDeleteWhat I liked about this game are the Conditions by changing climates, the passage from day to night and vice versa, and when you get gas or rest, with that for me is a very accomplished game.

Eureka!!!
Cold, start тягачь, should type before a trip atmospheric pressure.
And so, the car should not go from seat if will not be, for example 6,5 atmospheres of pressure of air.
Thus the indicator of color, on the panel of devices should signal.
========================================
Thanks a bunch, now i won't buy the game beacuse of not real logos, thanks you faggot scs software
ReplyDeleteхахахаха жестко. но это ведь не их вина, их вина только в том, что они показали раньше время, машины с нормальными логотипами.

Why I hate russians... dunno... get a fuck out of here
DeleteIt not Russian, is the silly Estonian, каторый as its country - cheap)))
DeleteThe whole world hates Russians, I am Russian and I hate Russians, probably it because 80 % of Russian are morons, descendants of the brainless peasants, all Russian intellectuals were killed by Stalin, as a result there were only morons
DeleteThis idiot not Russian, it the Estonian that is even worse.
DeleteSmall Tallinn and small silly Estonia with Fascist bents.
ты ненавидишь русских, потому что ты жид, пидор и либерал?или ты с гор спустился?так иди дальше еби овец чурка.
Deletenooooooooooooooooooooooo MERCEDES BENZ AND VOLVO GLOBETROTTER !!!!!!!
ReplyDeletethe majestic still has a mercedes logo in the back XD
ReplyDeleteWhether original branding or not. SCS, you have done yourselves and us (fans) proud. Teaching us a lot about and putting us right within the trucking environment has never been this enjoyable and fun. Thank you, once, Thank you, twice and Thank you, always for your hard work.
ReplyDeleteETS forever :-)
No Volvo and Mercedes, it's sad, but you did a good job SCS. Please, just do not put a release date ETS2.
ReplyDeletep.s. Sorry my English, I`m from Russia
Who cares Volvo and Merc are out, those can certainly be modded back into the game.
ReplyDeleteAnd to those people who are whining of not buying because those 2 brand names are out, grow up!!
Did we complain with the predecessors?
Nope!
Volvo, sorry Valiant is still the same truck i like it, SCS you did a great job even you didn`t got the licences. http://da.twitch.tv/dirt_devil/b/332863672 Whatch the latest video from Dirt Devil, a little laggy but is ok for me, i like it.
ReplyDeleteI love the engine sound, i think SCS did a great job this year with engine sounds from all trucks, all of them have a great engine sound, i personaly like the most Man sound, Valiant, Scania, Mercedes, Iveco and Runner Premium. I didn`t viewed a Daf video so far i can`t say anything about it but i`m sure SCS did a great job there too.
DeleteI accompany these videos for some time, and has been my solace until the big day!

ReplyDeleteJust for a stupid logo? Lol so many angry kids... People understand this, ETS 2 is still that awesome game that is about to be launched just without 2 "real" trucks, SCS did in my opinion a great job replacing the licences with fake ones, but those fake ones are made with high quality, the Volvo logo, or Valiant is allmost the same as the real one, and Majestic logo looks great too, if you say that you wont buy the game just because Volvo and Mercedes didn`t aprove the licences you prove how stupid you are. I`m sorry for saying this but it is the truth, like someone said before, ETS 1 and all of SCS games didn`t had any real licences and now when it has it is wrong because you want to much, it is not SCS`s fault. Volvo and Mercedes are the bad people ;) try to understand this.
DeleteI understand you are too little but try tu understand this, in these days it is ALL BOUT MONEY and i`m not refering to SCS.
Well it's not that, I was just so excited about real brands, but I guess I can wait until the usual "Real Logos Mod" comes out. I'm still putting my money on it don't get me wrong, it's just those brands got me saying "ehhh.." and I do recognize the fact that heat's on the truck makes, not so much SCS, don't get me wrong there, buddy. It's just at first glance I'm literally making this face " D: " Id' watch myself when I say "angry kid", I'm anything but, sir.
Deletepara cuando podriamos tener una version demo ? porque la verdad de ver tantos videos de las personas favorecidas de poner a prueba la version beta ya me estoy aburriendo , se me vuelve repetitivo.
ReplyDeletesepan disculpar si mi expresion suena un poco irritante lo que pasa que ya llevo 2 años siguiendo el proceso de este hermoso juego y ya estoy un poco cansado. yo entiendo que estan haciendo todo lo posible y lo valoro , continuen con el buen trabajo. gracias scs
As always, I fully support SCS Software team. You are doing an outstanding work. I wish you all the very best and lots of sales.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the release very much.
I don't see why the truck manufacturers reject the offer that SCS Software is offering. It's their loss because have their brand on games like this would be like a really long commercial. By the way, I don't see why SCS Software needs their permission to put their trucks in ETS2. Can't wait for the game!!! ;D
ReplyDeleteIt is all about money and if SCS put their names without permision they can sue SCS and will be a big mess.
Deleteoh xD
DeleteOh, yeah and for all of you crying about the game maybe not getting Volvo's and Mercedes-Benz's brand name and logo, get over it. In my opinion, or the truth ;), Scania is obviously the best brand of trucks on Earth so who cares about the other sucky brands. xD
ReplyDeleteWhat SCS doesn't and can't put in the game the modding community will, just like in ETS, GTS and UKTS, So chill people.
ReplyDeleteHey SCS,
ReplyDeleteIts the game's concept and its quality, a gamer enjoys while playing, not the real brands of trucks.
I don't whether non-branding is gonna hurt your pockets or not, but its definetely not gonna hurt our feelings for you guys.
As far as branding is concerned, you guys (SCS) is itself a Brand in TruckSim.
Thanks for the playlist on Youtube.
From a Valiant driver:
ReplyDeleteI understand the complex nature of brand usage, but still, to me it seems that Scania and MAN are the only ones to prove their superiority in the truck business by this kind gesture (positive publicity, whatever the cost..) and make their PR-image a lot stronger in the future drivers' (and maybe even customers) generation.
These other brands don't really seem to know or understand the value of niche marketing or what effect this game has on the young minds of future truckers. (And older ones too, I'm wishing my "Valiant" was a Scania :)

Hope that last minute deal works out, SCS! Both you and that brand would benefit from it.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, sometimes I am just stunned at the beauty of ETS2 (beta) and would like to say "Wow! Thank you for creating this masterpiece!" (c:
Lololololoooooooo! La la-laaaaaah, la la laah, lol, haha.
