Thanks for everyone's support with Steam Greenlight campaign for Euro Truck Simulator 2. We have over 1,600 votes already, and over 50 pages of mostly very encouraging comments.
Still it looks like it might be a good idea to add a few zombies into the game; judging by some of the leading submissions so far, adding zombies could bring us an order of magnitude more votes! ;-). We'll most likely resist the temptation - but kidding aside, this is a cold reminder for us as well as for you our fans that the potential of our truck sim "niche" is really limited compared to mainstream topics that Joe the gamer wants to deal with in the games he buys. The scope, depth and quality of our games are always going to be limited by how much money = manpower we can invest into them; how much money it's possible to make selling them to people willing to buy them. This pool is not that big. Exposure is key to get the game in front of as many eyes as possible.
The push for ETS on Greenlight will definitely continue for some time, nothing is decided yet. We thought that perhaps the fan community can help us even more in this long term effort. The effect of our blog has its limits, the news will get old very quickly. But quite a lot of you are running trucksim-related websites, blogs, facebook pages and message boards. Some visitors may come to you only from time to time, wouldn't it be great to have something permanent on the page to bring their attention to our cause?
We would like to offer you a set of banners and buttons that you can put on your web property to support ETS2. If you like any of the buttons, please use them to link them to the ETS2 Greenlight page. Big thanks!
We have these buttons and banners nicely packed in a ZIP file for download, with version including JPG on black and white backgrounds and PNG with transparency, at several sizes here:
www.eurotrucksimulator2.com/ets2_greenlight.zip
To wrap up this post, we have another YouTube movie for you. This one has been actually recorded over 2 weeks ago, some of the things in the game have been changed since then, and even the game logo in it is now obsolete. But we thought it would be a shame to lose all the work invested into creating the video, we quite like it.

Very Good SCS!
ReplyDeleteKeep it up.
2nd good job SCS
ReplyDeleteAmazing video!
ReplyDeleteGreat job SCS.
I've added the greenlight link to my own facebook page and asked everybody including non fans of the game to vote.
ReplyDeleteI cant wait to do the long haul deliveries in ETS2. I just hope there will be a retail DVD version in my local gamestop upon release.
I'm in the south east coast of Ireland BTW.
DeletePre order on Amazon, pay first class delivery and you get in on the day it is released.
DeleteRight now I cant afford it. I will have money to get the game on day of release but right now household bills are my priority.
DeleteOr i wait on Steam better come soon
DeleteU have support from JocuriArena.info
ReplyDeleteGreat video!
I have a question SCS.What are the specs of the computen oin this video was recorded?
ReplyDeleteHey SCS not asking for releasedate but can you tell us if you are close to going Gold??????
ReplyDeleteLooking good, SCS, as always.
ReplyDeleteAlthough, perhaps you should code in some nice external cameras that requires no attention from you, if only for your own use -- driving with external camera is a pain, isn't it? (c:
Do I have the permisson to put the images and the link on another site? Thanks SCS
ReplyDeleteYou're so dumb it's funny. '.'
DeleteOne thing that should be fixed is the cargo trains number of wagons behind the locomotive. There are usually a lot more wagons behind it, even around 50. So 5-7 is not really normal.
ReplyDeleteNot really hard to fix I guess, so think about it!
Thanks for your time SCS!
Putting that many cargo trucks behind a train would be stupid. Every cargo truck takes up the resource of the computer and like many I would be rather annoyed if the games frame rates reduced just because a train had so many trucks behind it. This is a truck simulator, not a train simulator. If you want to see realistic trains then maybe you should take a look at many of the train simulator that are available. Yes it is nice to see realistic scenery, but keep it as frame rate friendly as possible, so 5 to 7 trucks behind a train is fine by me.
DeleteI can't see how longer trains would affect frame rates that dramatically. In that case it would either be a big problem with the game engine, if such objects would have that kind of impact on the game. Or even more likely, the player would have a very shitty computer.
DeleteI don't think it would be stupid. I think 50 is too much, but there could definitely be some longer and some shorter trains. Variation is the key to make something entertaining.
Main point should be trucks, so the trains don't matter that much. But if 50 wagons causes problems, then why wouldn't 1?
If you think adding train carriages to the train wont effect FPS much then you need to do more research. Its like people want lots of traffic but the more traffic the more resources the game will take up and lower FPS. I do agree there should be longer and shorter trains but it should depend on the graphics settings. If your computer needs low settings then it should have short trains only but if you can have ultra settings then long trains with more traffic should be seen with variations of lots of traffic during the day to very low ammounts of traffic at night. It should be random though. So if your graphics are at Ultra and your computer can handle it should vary between lots of traffic to hardly any traffic and it should vary between long trains and short trains.
DeleteI am not asking for this I am just adding to the discussion.
@steve farrel:
DeleteKinda odd that the frame rate stays the same in train simulator games, no matter if there is 10 or 50 carriages.
Train carts are not like traffic or pedestrians, it is one big thing moving to one direction. Pedestrians/cars are individual objects that have different textures and need to be rendered individually. A train passing by shouldn't affect frame rates dramatically, no matter how many carriages it has. Either the engine is not good enough to handle it or the player's computer is not good enough for the game, if it becomes unplayable when that happens. Of course it has affect on the frame rates like everything else in the game, but the game should stay playable.
I never said the framerate woild dramatically be reduced but every object thats aded to a game is something else that the computer has to use resources for. Also in train simulators most of the time your computer oesnt have to draw lots of traffic along with the train most of the time.
DeleteEverything that is added to the game including trees or road side signs will add something else that will use computer resources and reduce FPS bit by bit.

You guys (SCS software) ROCK!!! We will help you guys of course!!! Remember where a fan community is for. Very good you guys ask. BTW this is our web: gamemoding.netii.net.
ReplyDeleteAnd our Facebook: Scania Truck Driving Simulator Balkan Fans.
I am so drawn to ETS 2 - and I find it difficult to put my finger on what exactly it is. I came upon ETS 2 at simflight.com (Been a flight sim junkie for many years) of all places, and was truly impressed by the youtube clips I found. Bought STDS in a flash four days ago - and have been trucking around the freeform map ever since. Even went out and bought a Logitech steering wheel to get that extra good driving feel. Absolutely love it! You guys have done an excellent job with STDS - and I honestly can't wait for ETS 2 - really! :)
ReplyDeleteFound myself some lovely mp3 radio channels that helps me get that imo immersive truck-haulin' feeling. A bit of country, easy listening, rock etc. etc. ;)
I am a 39 year old family guy with two small children, so an hour or two of trucking after the kids are sound asleep, and the wife busy with the latest reality show or whatever; is sweet relaxation for me. Takes my mind of work and chores - and eases me into my own little truck-world for a little while. :)
Great stuff! I really hope you succeed and make boat-loads of money off ETS 2. Cheers SCS - you deserve it. :)
Great to read comments like these. Welcome to the club.
DeleteYeah, great read!
DeleteGot a link to some of those MP3 radio channels? :)
Thank you gents. I will find the links when I get home later tonight Alexander. :)
DeleteHeh, I know, I discovered trucks sims thanks to SCS years ago, didn't even know I had such an interest in it until I tried Across America. Then I was hooked. (c:
DeleteGot myself a new wheel recently too, along with TrackIR it makes it a whole other experience! I could not go back to play without those.
Welcome to the family, so to speak! (c:
Alexander: This link shows my live_streams.sii file with the radio stream channels listed in it: http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h479/fieldvalley/radiostream.jpg

Looks beautiful.
ReplyDeletelol @ the garage security camera, nice touch xD
If the truck did something wrong and you reported that to the police, They'd probably think that is real!
DeleteHaha my thought exactly ;)
DeleteThe anticipation keeps increases.
ReplyDeleteAbout the video - Hope there was something at 1:52 that caused the cab to be bobbing like that. I know the suspension is being highlighted here, but wanted to know the cause.
This comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteThe acceleration caused the "bobbing" while going up through the gears.
DeleteThats normal with a heavy load and lots of torque.
It’s still not quite right though as the Merc needs looking at, as the rear mudguard/tyres are to close and given with the dynamic load transfer from the front with rear wheel torque, as the front rises this portion of weight should be transferred onto the rear axle compressing it, all the merc’s (4x2, 6x2 & 6x4) seam not show this trait of dynamic load transfer as the rear axle/s of the merc appear to stiff with little movement in this aspect whereas the Volvo (4x2, 6x2 & 6x4) do and also have a larger gap between rear mudguard/tyres, its almost as if the merc’s are on the “bump stops”
DeleteIt's true about the gap at the back wheels. Seems weird.
DeleteI didn't notice that at first.

Very good SCS but i have one small idea for you SCS, i would like openable windows some people might of said this before i dont know if its in the game anyway if it is please tell me SCS if its not maybe you could make it be in the game after its been out a few days,weeks.
ReplyDeleteThere are indeed two major issues with Greenlight and the offer of games on it, which I see as a threat to ETS2's chances.
ReplyDelete1, there are TOO MANY horror games. I keep looking on Greenlight every day, and on the first day already I got sick of the amount of zombiegames on it. Doesn't matter if people will realise this too, but they keep ETS2 away from the pages people will still want to browse too, decreasing chances on success.
2, there are TOO MANY fake simulators! This is the largest issue. People like us, who know ETS2, know that ETS2 is a totally different game than Airport Simulator, Heavy Transport Simulator, Trainstation Simulator.... Toilet Simulator >.<
However, the majority doesn't know ETS2, and thinks it's just another Simulator branded game. You can see it in the comments, some people actually downvoted the game for the Simulator bit.
All in all though, if we get EVERYBODY here to vote on ETS2, these things shouldn't limit the success and goal for ETS2.

ReplyDeleteThat's great SCS!
ReplyDeleteI wonder would SCS ever consider joining the WMD project for their next gamehttp://forum.wmdportal.com/forum.php
ReplyDeletehttp://www.wmdportal.com/about/
Some basic info of what WMD is
WMD (World of Mass Development) is a new platform for games creation from the award-winning developer Slightly Mad Studios that allows:
Developers to submit ideas to an active gaming community, raise the funds needed to develop them, get continual feedback from community team members that can play work-in-progress builds, use the WMD Portal to promote their project, get help from other developers, and ultimately launch their game to an eagerly-awaiting audience
Players to browse available projects and join any they are interested in, download and play regular builds of the game, participate in discussion & polls, speak directly to the developers, and eventually earn money back for their contribution when the game is released
WMD is therefore a unique prospect for both developers looking to raise funds for their projects and gamers that want to get involved in exciting upcoming titles.
So far Project Cars on the WMD project cars has raised over 1.4 million euro.

In future games, if there are any (i'm sure there will be), how about adding some of the Balkan nations and/or scandinavian countries.
ReplyDeletejust an idea.
keep up the good work
Zombies? Why not when UFO ship is present in the game.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Sir..
DeleteThey could even add a minigame where you should shoot birds after some pigs, like.. everytime you switch gear, you have to hit one of the pigs with a bird.. if not, the Truck will reset to Neutral :D
That game is quite popular.. so maybe it would give the game the needed votes ;)

Hi SCS software. If you wanna do well on steam make multiplayer. everyone i know is looking for games on steam and everytime they find a good game the comment "NO MULTIPLAYER" comes and they dont buy it. the games become much more fun if you can share it with friends. and NO we dont want massive multiplayer servers. But adding multiplayer and setting it up so 1 player start the game and the others join he's game, then you dont need massive servers because if i start a game and a friend of mine joins me i am the server. That would make the game alot more fun, to build up a company with a friend or to build up two different companys and work together. i really think you should make an update like this for ETS2 and inform on greenlight and here that a update like this is coming soon. then i know your votes on greenlight and your sales will go skyhigh compared to now. i dont know anything about making games but i know that if you want to increase interest of a game a multiplayer option like this will do it. we dont want multiplayer online servers just the option for a couple of friends to join our games and play together. And for all of you who will whine about this. it will be an OPTION to use it. YOU deside who gets to join you or IF someone gets to join you. so people wont be able to ruin your gaming experience. So SCS Software, you probably already know this but a option like that will be the best for this game especially if u want to make it on steam. Its more fun to play a game with a friend. I even played Farming simulator 2011 for several hours, and that isent because farming simulator 2011 is a good game, it had the option to play with a friend, and that is what makes games good. So im really hoping you read this and reply on it. it would be a shame if the option doesent come to the game because you would get ALOT more sales with it. so when you are done with ETS2 start working on expansions. A multiplayer expansion you could sell. people would pay to play it multiplayer. and those who dont want it can just not buy it:)
ReplyDeleteSo lets hope you read this and decide to listen to what i just said. it really will improve the game alot;)
Best Regards
Tiwaz Norway
They read messages like this almost every day. They aren't adding multiplayer because they have just 10 people, if they were about to add MP to the game, it can only be done in 1 additional year. And there is much more people who want to buy this game in THIS sumer, than people who want multiplayer.
DeleteWhen we can see a Video of the Engine Sounds from the other trucks??
ReplyDeleteI don't get it...
ReplyDeleteSCS has always made niche games, why the sudden desire to reach the mainstream audience?
Also, you might be only reaching 1% or less of total worldwide gamers (most probably less), but that total keeps increasing as more and more gain access to personal computers, so your revenues will go up with time.
Furthermore, there is a good chance that you will continue to refine your concept as the iterations keep rolling, and before too long you'll have a built up such an amount of experience within that genre that not many games studios will be able to compete with you, and you'll gain a monopoly of sorts within the motorized worker sim (want more worker class sims from scs, farming and all others).
Lastly, you have to believe that there will be a shift at some point in the near future, where people do not only play pc games for entertainment, but also for a chance to experience an alternate life, or in this case, a desire to experience what it is like to be a trucker. The pc community will mature as the years pass, we're still in the infancy of this industry, don't loose site of that. :)
I dont care about reaching mainstream. i just want multiplayer option and i think the effect of adding multiplayer will increase sails alot. and that is a very good thing for us and scs. more sails means more money for scs to improve games and make new ones. and if you say that they look for a alternate life multiplayer will make that life even more realistic;) so the game is good without multiplayer but great with multiplayer
Deletei absoultely agree with you, but you know there are only limited people who loves simultations games, i mean it will never reach the role playing, shooting, strategy etc. genre. However as you said, if they added multiplayer it would boost their sales a little, so lets just hope they'll surprise os with that new feature in the future :)
DeleteThey need to reach mainstream to be able to help their team grow and to help them to keep making games. The more people that buy their games the more money they make. If they remain niche then they will only be able to gain enough to just keep them going. I cant how hard it is to understand why they want reach out to mainstream and get out of the niche market.
DeletePS Why do I have to do captcha each time even when I am logged in. I have a hard time reading a lot of those captcha's
A good idea is that u SCS may prerelease the ets2 ( a beta version) to to see what could be corrected or added to the final ets2 and to recover a litel bit your budget ( maybe to add someting at the ets2).The beta version might have a serial code and with that serial u can upgrade the betA ets2 to the full ets2 ( when appeares and maybe to put it in steam
ReplyDeleteSCS this is starting to get painful, i hope the game will be finished soon ;) and as always, magnificent video thanks!
ReplyDeleteSuper video! I like Italian landscapes!!
ReplyDeleteSorry SCS Software,
ReplyDeleteI want to vote this game,but the system said I don't have sufficient privileges to perform this action.
I try to help you,sorry!
I can't help you more.
You need to download at least one game to vote in Greenlight.
Deleteyou have to download a game on steam, either a demo or a full purchased one, then you should have the privileges to vote.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your help.
DeleteI will try it again.
I have downloade a demo (Just cause2) and i have the same problem
Deleteohh sorry to hear guys :X
DeleteIt doesn't look like you've made any purchases with your Steam account.
They probably restricted voting to accounts that have games purchased on them, to prevent people from just making a thousand extra voting accounts, so i guess you need to buy a steam game, to be able to vote, demos doesn't count obviously.. sorry for the trouble guys
Wow, my lovely Italy...sweet to see Verona (the city of Juliet & Romeo) and Milan. Milan is perfect with rainy and smoggy day! Perfect scs. Now release the game XD
ReplyDeleteNO PEDESTRIANS= FAIL
ReplyDeleteBut its looks like All Other Sims from SCS.
What is BIG NEW in ETS2?
The Landscapes is ever the Same.All looks like All.
Your post = FAIL!!!!
DeleteI counted 166 more features, yes, it's all the same o_O
DeleteSteve Farrel u are Fanboykiddie
DeleteI'm no fanboy kiddie. I can see there are lots of changes and your complaint is stupid. If you cant see any differences in ETS2 to the other sims then you seriously nee to get your eyes tested. My eyesight isnt the best and I can see a lot of changes.
Delete@ AnonymousSeptember 3, 2012 1:18 AM : And you are a blind idiot that cant see any differences between ETS 2 and the other SCS games. Also there are pedestrians in ETS2. So your comment = fail
Deletehere's suggestion, don't like? don't buy.. actually there are pedestrians, and lots of them, how about you check other videos and follow the blog by SCS instead of coming only for new videos? This new ETS 2 is not the same i can guarantee you 100%, this is their most realistic, largest & best looking game yet, so i would suggest you to go see an eye doc.
ReplyDeleteohh and did i mention, that they have 8 fully licensed truck manufacturers, i dont believe any of us have seen that in their previous sims? if that's is not new then i honestly don't know.
Delete8 fully licesed trucks? is this true or a guess? since they said: drive 8 highly detailed truck models with design based on real European vehicles?
Deleteyeah dude what's i'm saying, they are european only, since the game is called ETS 2... and no it's not a guess, SCS said it them self. 8 fully licensed trucks and real detailed truck models is the same words.
Deletethey have never said ALL 8 trucks are licensed
Deletedamn it michael i'm trying to improvise :P well at least Scania, Mercedes, Daf, Iveco, & Renault are licensed
DeleteAnd MAN as well.. how could i forget MAN!
DeleteNot trying to say you are lying jasmin;) but couldent remember scs saying they had linceses from all truck brands. but in my opinion less videoes and pictures and more info on things like licenses and if not a release date they should atleast say when they think they can set a date. so we know how close/far away they are;) but i cant talk for everyone else but for me the "not knowing" is killing me.. if i knew the waiting would kill me:P but not knowing on top of that is to much;)
DeleteWel SCS has been very vague but I can tell there is no license for Daf trucks. Here you can see:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePzHP8P6zQk&feature=g-user-u
DeleteRenault, Mercedes and Volvo for sure. Just check some videos. They are only testing now so not much will be changed.... And if you don't know where to look.
Excalibur and ETS2Poland made some vids.
And as always. Have nice day ;)
116808apd
I think the closest newest comment on trucks and their licencing was
Deletequote in - Steam Greenlight is here!:
SCS SoftwareAugust 31, 2012 8:13 PM
"We have licensed the rights from certain truck manufacturers to use their brand INSIDE the game."
To me, that says they don’t as yet perhaps have ALL the truck makes fully confirmed as licenced, with perhaps a question mark over Iveco or daf, given there has been plenty of videos of Scania, MAN, Renault, Volvo, Merc
alright sorry for bringing false info AnonymousSeptember 2, 2012 6:27 PM i really thought they had all of the 8 trucks licensed, since the recent ExcaliburPubVideos , said Any " mention of truck manufacturers seen in these videos is subject to change. SCS Software are hard at work getting the best manufacturers on board so what may be seen in these early previews does not fully represent" thats the reason i got confused.. again sorry for the trouble
Deleteanother video with crappy graphics, no AA amd played with keyboard,
ReplyDeleteyou guys don't have a marketing departament that checks this things?
you are probably the first firm i ever seen that promotes their product with lesser quality videos that the final product.
You are crappy :)
DeleteAndrei bear in mind that SCS is a small company of 13 people, what do you really expect? have some respect and be grateful, cause they are the only firm that makes such good truck Sims.
DeleteYeah +1
DeleteHi scs Team Is this banner Ok i set to Website : http://www.gamemoding.netii.net/
ReplyDeleteyou promote cracked version of scania truck simulator on your site... and you come here for aproval... you are suck a jackass!
DeleteCracked ???
Deletewhat the hell are you talking about Andrei?? nothing is cracked on that homepage, are u completely retarded? Stefan even put up a nice banner to help SCS promote their game.
DeleteThank you Jasmin :)
DeleteI really don't know what you took Andrei but we don't promote cracked STDS... We promote the real game and all of her patches. WE ONLY TRY TO HELP SCS ON OUR MODDING SITE!!!!
DeleteBTW Jasmin thankx for commenting on that bullshit :)
116808apd
yes mister novakovik, you say you don't know anything, but until a few days ago, this page http://www.gamemoding.netii.net/Patch.html was full of patch+crack links... so afterall you are just full of bullshit!
DeleteHehhe you are stupid idiot where is crack and page maked befor 3 day hahahah lol kiss my assssss!!

116808apd
HAHA Andrei, come on. You really think that our website.... only visited by 98 different people and you are one of them. All of a sudden here. BULLSHIT. And if you really wanna know we only have this patch tab there since friday eve so your "a few days ago" is just bullshit.
Deleteand as always, HAVE NICE DAY!!
you welcome nico & stefan ;) it seems like Andrei got something against you guys.. Andrei do you know some games need crack, if you lost your original copy? its much easier then all the trouble you have to through, and it's legal. also some people prefer a orginal copy of a game, with a cracked.exe so they dont need to put the CD in and out, everytime they have to play.
DeleteYes you right Jasmin. I have UKTS but German version. I understand German but when I start modding it will not work on others... I downloaded crack (which didn't work btw) because well, I purchased the game but I can't play the same version as others.... But is it really legal than.... I'm not sure xD
Deleteexactly i see the problem there Nico, i would have done the same. I remember once had a issue with gta iv i started modding it, and suddenly i couldn't enter the game, because some mods overwrited the exe. files :S so i had to download a crack for gta 4 hehe, but the game was legally purchased ^^ so as long you have the game purchased for only your self, you are allowed to get a crack .exe for it, not to others ;)
DeleteHi i have a question for the modders out here. what program do you use to mod your trucks? i want to make my own mods but dont know what program to use:P a reply would be awsome;)
ReplyDeleteThanks alot
We use Zmodeler2.... but ETS2 is gonna need Zmodeler3 which is currently being tested. But modding trucks is very hard.... I never tried.

Anonymous (September 2, 2012 5:13 PM), what do you mean with - "what program do you use to mod your trucks?" ?
DeleteYou mean completely modding or the textures only?
FANTASTICCCCCCCCCCCCC :DD
ReplyDeletePlease SCS, zombies will ruin the realism, but, if you do zombies, please do a game seting to turn them on or off.
ReplyDeletefacedesk. that was sarcastic. ofcourse they are not giong to include zombies
DeleteThey will make a driver zombie ;)
DeleteGood video! So ; the game is finished and ready to be sent to the editors or not? Can you make a point on the situation of the game actually? Please... =)
ReplyDeleteI really start to think that doubles are not included in the final version of the game.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't seen them since March 2011. In the videos, no AI driver is driving doubles, also haven't seen it in the cargo lists.
So maybe SCS could give me some light with doubles? Are they in or are they out. Otherwise people just get dissapointed.
No SCS, don't thanks us, you have to thank to yourself, you have done this, it's fantastic!
ReplyDeleteYou have done great work in the recent years!
With 3 fantastic games;
- Trucks & Trailers
- Scania Truck Driver
And ETS2 is coming ;).
Thank YOU!
Some stuff looks unfinished or same as in the ETS. I really don't like that most of the warehouses are/or has completely same layout as in ETS. Another thing camera following is the same and the look from the wheel keeps vibrating like in ETS. So the game looks really unfinished or same as ETS which isn't good at all. Because of all that things it becomes same game as previous games, but with bigger map which has more realistic things and new menu layout with alot of features in it... I hope that game is still in beta ant you keep changing thing in it.
ReplyDeleteI think SCS is just buying more time from us to complete the game. And to conceal release date SCS is asking of our help to put ETS2 on Steam.
ReplyDeleteOtehrwise very nice video.
scs software that you guys would answer my question someone even give the company Hell are you hiding the release date or you guys do not want to release it almost every day you guys post a video of a new redelivery so that the will of the players to play and else a suggestion you guys could release a test version for the players to see where this bugs and report to you guys this would make the game go much faster without bugs because players would help by reporting bugs and the game would be perfect in 1 or 5 months and a question to which manufacturers have authorized official license brands in the game if you have something wrong and I'm sorry that does this translate a save of a fan of Brazil
ReplyDeleteQ.R.A TANQUEIRO, the official release date is September 28 2012 (26 days left only).
Delete...who can guarantee it
Delete@ Zakxaev68 : here is no official release date.
DeleteI think you're underestimating "Gamers". There is a huge potential in these games. Just look at Ship Simulator Extreme and Farming Simulator 2011. Although the kicker for these games boils down to Multiplayer. Everywhere you go and read about these games, you see Multiplayer being put up as the number one thing about it. Today, players expect a game to have multiplayer. Look at the "Trainz" - After their multiplayer patch launch, they had a period with 150% increased sales following it.
ReplyDeleteI would be more than surprised if SCS wouldn't see the same kind of numbers if they added multiplayer. Simulation games simply aren't as fun alone.
I have added one of the banners to my blog - http://zakxaev68.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteLet's hope that many users will do the same and to support the project, so we can hope to see the game in Steam.
One tip to SCS Software's team about the last banner - i have fixed the Steam Greenlight logo on the banner that i have used, because on the original one the Steam Greenlight logo is not exactly in the center of the image and does not look good, but that's a minor problem :)
Good luck with the bug fixing and polishing the game :)
Asymmetry is an art choice probably made on purpose in this case. And it looks like it was made to center the text of greenlight, was fine the way it was imo...
DeleteHello scs, good video and nice progress in steam Greenlight. Speaking of lights, light lightning still not good at all they look like a cloud , there is no need for those small clouds they kill the realism.
ReplyDeletewhy just Scania have cab shock absorber..in real life every truck have it... when you can do it with Scania than you can do it with other trucks... :D
ReplyDeleteI would vote but the damn thing tells me my account doesn't have sufficient privileges. :( Do I need to have purchase history or is downloading a free game (not demo) enough?
ReplyDeletesorry to tell you Max, but you have to purchase at least one game from steam to be able to vote, demo's doesn't count unfortuantly
DeleteThere you go, that means SCS is majority of such votes/fans, who are unable to vote due to non-purchase of games from Steam.
DeleteThere you go, that means SCS is losing majority of such votes/fans, who are unable to vote due to non-purchase of games from Steam.
Deleteyeah blame Valve for making those privileges..
Deletebut let's be realistic here, anyone can buy a 12.99 Euro game on steam.. there's even cheaper.. i guess people just don't want to buy a game they don't want to use time on.
DeleteWe want more videos of game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Thank you scs you are the best!!!!

NO ZOMBIES IN OUR TRUCKS PLEASE!!!
ReplyDeleteWE ARE TRUCKERS NO ZOMBIE FIGHTERS!!
PLEASE!!!!
Zombies are popular,I would really like zombies in the game.Also possibility to put a zombie paintings on trucks and trailers,that would be so cool.
DeletePEOPLE, THIS WAS A JOKE MADE BY SCS. ofcourse they are NOT going to add zombies into a trucking sim
Deletehahaha Michael im dying of laughter here! i can't believe people honestly think zombies will be included LOL :D
DeleteI will turn into a zombie while waiting for this game release
ReplyDeletewhen do the game come out

go by ferry too
Il y aura toujours des cons pour empêcher les bons jeux de faire surface ! Du moment qu'il n'y a pas de sang dans le jeu, ce n'est pas intéressant .. c'est vraiment dégueulasse. Je pense que le vote négatif ne devrait pas être disponible. Il devrait seulement y avoir un vote positif pour savoir le potentiel client disponible pour ce jeu .. et non un vote positif/négatif qui permet aux imbéciles de voter contre par stupidité ..
ReplyDeleteThere will always be idiots to keep good games to surface! The moment there is no blood in the game, it is not interesting .. this is really disgusting. I think the negative vote should not be available. It should only be a positive vote to determine the potential client available for this game .. not a vote positive / negative that allows idiots to vote against stupidity ..
Good point Naturemann, kinda makes you wonder what Valve was thinking. Hopefully they'll realize their mistake and fix this in the near future.
DeleteBoth positive AND negative votes have to be permitted else even the worst game given enough time would get to 100% of votes if only positive votes were permited.
Delete+ 1 Naturemann i totally agree with you! let's just hope greenlight will be improved, as steam was.
Deletenice, will vote for it :) Btw: Its Stuttgart and not Stuttgard (in the video)
ReplyDeleteIT SHOULD BE MULTIPLAYER LIKE FSX
ReplyDeleteWe just broke past the 2% mark! I think we're now in the top 5-10% of Greenlight! We can do it!
ReplyDeleteThis question isn't related to te game but please answer. In what program have u made this banner and images and buttons?Plz answer because I want to make too.
ReplyDeleteSCS you always ask your fans for help, with greenlight or translation but you never listen to our suggestions. For the last 2 years none of our ideas was included to the game. You want to improve your games but you don't care what we say!
ReplyDelete"We have set the release time to first week of August 2012". This is what you wrote in February. We have September and you don't even want to tell us release date. We have a right to know. I bet publishers already know the date. This is how you treat your fans!
We dont have a right to know, but would be nice to know..
Delete@ Cets. You are very wrong. I asked them to add the ability to allow me to use my Fanatec CSR Elite pedals plugged into USB seperate to my GT3S V2 and the next patch they adde the ability to use my pedals seperate to my wheel. I asked them to have one mirror only in the HUD and the next patch they ha the option to have just one mirror in the HUD.
DeleteJust because you are disapointed wih what SCS is doing doesnt mean you have to lie about them.
I tottaly agree with you. Yes, the game looks cool but communication with fans is very poor. Developers are asking fans help and fans are doing the best to help. But then fans ask for a release date there is a total silence. If you don't know the date then please tell that. I really hope you will not loose fans support and will treat them better. I trully believe that difference between "buy the game" and "download torrent" is in developers ability to make sure game fans likes not only the game but developers team also. That's why it is so important nice communication between players and developers. Both sides wins that way. Please don't make people to choose "download torrent".
DeleteAlso SCS dont owe us anything and we dont have the right to know the release date until they are reay to give a solid release date. If they give us a new release date and it gets pushed back again we will get more negative comments from people that are disapointed.
Delete@Anonymous. As a customers and fans we have a right to know. We are not a random players. We wait for this game over 2 years. They did not released game in first week of August so they should tell us new date. I understand that they did not make ETS2 in time but they can't sit like nothing happened.
Delete@steve farrell. They just added support for more devices, nothing special. Ask hundreds of people asking about openable windows or cabels attached to the trailers.
@Slatkus. People need to realize that fans are supporting SCS for many years and they don't listen to us. Maybe we should not listen to them either? Close the blog, don't tell us nothing, release the game when you want to and ignore us even more.
Wait you are still bloody crying over openable windows. You guys really need to get a life. I can also say that openable windows and cables connected to the trailer is nothing special too because it doesnt matter to me.
DeleteGet over yourself. SCS dont owe you anything and you dont deserve anything from them. Just because you think you are owed something doesnt mean its true. We will get a release date and maybe we might get your OH So precious openable windows and cables some time in a patch.
Maybe because we like to drive with opened windows???
DeleteMaybe because we expect something more then just graphicly tunned ETS/GTS???
Maybe because we want some features that will make this game more realistic???
Maybe because we want simulator not arcade game???
Maybe because we expect something more then just driving from A to B???
You know CETS..
DeleteYou choose to buy truckgames scs did not chose it for you..
You choose to ask for new things in the games scs did not ask you..
You choose to support SCS they did not ask you to..
Remember Nobody owes you anything for your own choises..
I never said they owe me something! Read the comments on this blog and you will see that I'm not the only one with higher expectations. They should better care of their fans. Without fans buying their games they won't exist. Maybe I should be sorry for not being grateful?
DeleteYour another one of those people complaining that nothing is added and claiming its just a graphicaly tuned ETS when in fact thereis over 160 additions added to the game but still you are being ungreatful
DeleteWoah! Easy now, fellas. (c:
DeleteOne step at a time. Budget and time restricts what they can add. For all we know the window deal may come in the future. Or not. What we do know is that they cannot implement everything this time around.
That is where Steam can help. Not to make games depend on it, but earn SCS more money to allow them to not only continue to make their products but to add to them.
And that is where we can help, by buying the game, by spreading the word. So hang in there and continue to support - and give ideas, who know what they will add in the future? (c:
CETS you realize that SCS is one of the best developers to communicate with their fans? given new content weekly, isn't something you will see with other big famous developers, and remember they are only around 13-15 people in their firm, i think it's over impressive they are capable of making those sims games as few people they are. and you're right about that, they aren't much without their fans, no company is of course, but you must realize they can't fulfill wishes for everyone, now see in ETS 2 for the first time ever, we have adjustable mirrors, well that's a good start if you ask me, we might get those adjustable windows, in updates, and people be patient with release date, i know we all want it badly, but waiting is all we can do, and since the game is in beta stage, well that means it isn't far from going gold.
DeleteYes they made mirrors so why they can't make windows? They had over 2 years for this. I really doubt this will be added in any update. I understand that they don't have time and money for multiplayer but trucks should have more features. Is this a Truck Simulator or not? Maybe it's a Truck "Driving" Simulator like STDS? Yes I have new title for this game: Central Europe Truck Driving Almost-Simulator! Sounds good for me.
DeleteI am a non-smoker so I do not care so much for openable windows,and when I want to open window and scold on others road users then I play OMSI Bus simulator ;)
DeleteDo not worry CETS sooner or later they will make a openable windows and other proposals
...just stay cool like a swimming pool
seriously CETS i would like more to see realistic damage then openable windows, if i made a wishlist to SCS to what to include in ETS 2, trust me they would delaye it for xtra 2 years. simulators need visible damage as openable windows.. and honestly whats so special about having openable windows? you can see in STDS the instruments move, when u do a thing, i know it's realistic having openable windows, but it's not the keybreaker in simulator, for me atleast.
DeleteYou said SCS put nothing in the game what WE want?
DeleteHAHAHHA You're seriously a noob.
SCS listening to us.. ;-)
SCS I'd like if you can made an extra-pack map with all European countries. I like you're work very much but, the game won't be really realistic without all European countries. Other way I'll buy it with or without all countries, I hope you will release it soon.
ReplyDeletePlease have windows that open in the game please!!
ReplyDeleteStop it!!
DeleteI would see all 18 wheels of steels games with new graphic engine from ets2.
ReplyDeleteAwesome job scs!!!

ReplyDeleteDear SCS.
On this screnshot is visible that the truck have "diagnostics",I wonder if will be only damage diagnostic like in ETS,GTS or it can be ablebe to wear truck parts such as engine,tires,brakes,suspension and their impact on driving performance.Eg realistic engine overheating,worn-out tires causes more slipping,excessively braking causes the faster brakes wasting so that we more prefer a engine brake,after all that we must carefully manage with truck and service vehicle parts with time if want to safely deliver cargo on time.
Frankly,I do not expect all this possibilities directly in upcoming game,but if the sale was good it would not be bad to try add these possibilities later in the game,I think this would make even more realistic and interesting gameplay.
Sorry for my english.
I think the same way, but I doubt that developers of ETS2 can do all of that things untill they release it. Still I would like to see all gauges working like in real truck.
DeleteHi all from Greece
ReplyDeleteThis game will be and muliplayer? i heard it from a friend...
And when you thing the game will be ready?
Regards
Diatzelo
oxi re !
DeleteRELEASE DATE 28. SEPTEMBER 2012. IS IT TRUE?
ReplyDeleteLet`s hope so.
DeleteI have some ideas for trailers.It would be nice (after my opinion) to add trailer that carries tuck cabs or trailer or bridge pieces and maybe animals ( not meat, animal that are alive).Thankz for reading my advice.
ReplyDeleteMay be your idea will help SCS to use it as a new patch for ETS2.
DeleteNice idea of flashing with the lights ( at the steam page look at the game logo).Keep going and do the best SCS
ReplyDeleteWow I love this video! Great job SCS! It's so long!!! Oh, and by the way, I love your Scania Driving Simulator map update. Very nice, very polished. You guys are the best!
ReplyDeleteHi Scs, can you make the street more wet when it's raining. I mean when raining, the street don't have the reflection. Feel like the water falling on the truck mirror, not the street :D
ReplyDeletewhat happened with steam rating?
ReplyDeleteit was at 2%, now it's 0 again!?!?!?
"This game has attained 0% of necessary positive ratings so far"
i see that too Andrei, im sure that's a bug with greenlight, it's still very new, and needs improvements, but don't worry ScS knows the right rating

I don't understand, why didn't SCS asked for this Steam help from us (fans), a month ago when they decided to postpone the game for another month. May be by now they have got enough of our support on steam.
ReplyDeleteBecause Greenlight didn't exist back then.
DeleteSCS or Excalibur can you show us a video or a trailer about tuning?
ReplyDeletePlease guys use IP Changers and vote more ! ;)
ReplyDeletesrsly, give us a fucking release date!!
