We are preparing Euro Truck Simulator 2 update version 1.8 for release. Despite our best effort, our new AI code and physics improvements need more time "in the lab" as programmers are still tweaking things based on tester input. Therefore we decided to bring forward the release of a new vehicle model - Scania R edition bearing the legendary Streamline name! Such an important release deserves it's own version number bump, the planned code changes will therefore appear in future 1.9.x release.
Currently 1.8 is available in beta branch on Steam. This should be the final testing window, hopefully very short, and soon we'll be able to bring it out of beta on Steam and eventually also release the standalone patch for non-Steam players. Retail update takes quite longer to produce and test, plus setup the mirror servers so that our own infrastructure isn't immediately overloaded. But rest assured that it is coming asap as well.
Streamline trucks were always Scania's most leading, technically proficient trucks, with focus on efficiency and driver comfort. We hope that you will have fun trying out the new truck in our game!
Here's is a cool Scania Streamline video preview made by DaSquirrelsNuts:
Thank you ! When the patch will be released about 1.8 ? :)
ReplyDeleteit has just been released on ets2 update page...
DeleteYes. You right. And its Great Runs Perfect , Nice Gear Shift.
DeleteStill no optional spoilers and collars for the cab like the sideskirts ? ok...
ReplyDeleteI hope this is not the second truck you are working on, there are not so many changes you know...
About the Scania, would you introduce this skin for Christmas ?

What again with this Steam bs ? Get your act together SCS .
ReplyDeleteYour butthurt getting boring! You obviously don't know anything about Steam. So Stfu.
Delete''Retail update takes quite longer to produce and test'' or can't you read. Steam is one of the most successful platforms ever created. Why don't you research a little before criticizing SCS
DeleteDont pay attention, just a butthurt user of a pirated game who cant get access to beta patches from Steam.
Deletedumb as shit go kill yourself
DeleteWell, I'm not a pirate gamer, I bought both original game and DLC and have also 6 year steam account. But I don't know how to add ETS2 to my games cause I didn't bought it via steam but in a shop.
DeleteSo I think users like me are a bit discriminated.
Although I accept the fact, that a bit later publishing of update for non-Steam users will benefit from deletion and correction of errors that were found during beta-testing.
so you have serial number - left down corner of your client, add game....
Deletehttps://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=5414-TFBN-1352
So I need to have installed steam client and be online on steam, now I understand. I was online logged in on steam web page, without client on my PC. Need to try it when I will be near game PC :) Thanx
DeleteI hope you don't forget about the non Steam users!
ReplyDeletei dont play at steam but i know the E.TRK2 .. in seam is online playng we see another people at the road? and is free to play or is for some cash
DeleteNo big difference, just offline game with automatic updates
DeleteSCS is BEST!
ReplyDeleteStop favoring Steam users please, we, non steam players also wants beta patches on retail version, not only with promise that maybe you will release them out of Steam too.
ReplyDeleteI paid same money as Steam users and want same content as they get, I know that retail game can be registered on steam but that's no argument, Steam version came much later than retail but you benefit their users against us, non Steam players. Why I must wait for your goodwill that you will decide to release their content to all....
Your sentence "soon we'll be able to bring it out of beta on Steam and eventually also release the standalone patch for non-Steam players" really disturbing me, especially word "eventually".
Many ETS2 players probably don't realize how much effort SCS is still putting into improving the game over a year after the original release. We do it with love, but it is a burden limiting our ability to work on future stuff. It means trade-offs to make, balancing things out, juggling several live projects and teams at the same time.
DeleteWe do it for you, because this is what we consider to be the right thing to do. The reality of Steam vs. non-Steam updates is such that releasing an update on Steam is "one mouse click" for us and waiting for 5 minutes to get the new build uploaded to Steam system. After that, anybody on Steam can play the game 10 minutes later. If we make a mistake, pulling the build, or releasing a hotfix on Steam is again a matter of hours, not days. On the other hand, releasing a non-Steam update takes ages. Just testing the cumulative patch means trying to apply it to dozens previous releases of the game. Then it takes communicating with the mirror sites and waiting for confirmation that the patch is up. We are paying not exactly small money for 3 file servers dedicated just to serving our downloads, but this is far from enough, on "patch days" downloads slow down to a crawl, and even in other days it means the downloads are not fast enough.
In summary, creating the non-Steam updates slows us down, and costs us time and money that we could spend on the game itself. People here are blocked doing non-productive things for extended periods of time rather then developing something new for you. And if we do make a mistake in retail patch, taking it "back" is much harder, as we need to go through the full cycle of re-testing it before release. (That's why the Steam player base is currently used somewhat as the final testing zone before we are really ready to commit to going through cooking the retail patch!). Now perhaps you see our motivation to gently nudge our player base towards Steam
Probably because Valve wants it that way...it must be one of the condition to put game on Steam...also its easier to gather info about game behaving via steam...
Delete"Many ETS2 players probably don't realize how much effort SCS is still putting into improving the game over a year after the original release."
DeleteI must reply to this...So what if year has past since release. To be honest your game is good, but not that good to be put aside year after releasing it. Many of things that are being corrected now should have been in game on the day of release. Okay I understand you are small team and things need time, but we all paid for our game and we have every right to demand things to be corrected not just you to release it, take our money and forget game afterwards. There are many things in game that can be improved in gameplay mechanics not just cosmetics. There are lot of good mods, why not take those good things and incorporate it in game. Anyway since you are small team,it would be better for you to build good base on this game and just take it and improve in further trucking games.
Haven't you understood a word of SCS's comment? It has nothing to do with Valve it's just much more efficient method of posting updates. Even more so considering that we get an update every week or so.
DeleteWhy do they «favor» the steam users? Because steam has an infrastructure to simply give beta to users. If SCS want to give beta easily to everyone, then they need to build the same infrastructure. But who would build and support it? SCS themselves, instead of making game better? I think you will be against it. Or maybe you can do this yourself? Also, this infrastructure would require a lot of money — will you pay for beta? Or you want to make pay all the game owners?
DeleteSo if you want beta free, now and without detriment to game's development, use steam. It's not that bad, actually.
SCS enough that puts blog news, releases a lot of patches , they still listen to the players and try to fulfill their whims. But when some of the " players " and still resent insult SCS , it is already over the edge ! You will not owe anything to anybody , other developers are releasing a game usually produce 1-2 patch and start working on a new project ! ungrateful ...
DeleteSorry, everyone, for what comes next.
Delete@Anonymous December 5, 2013 at 11:19 AM
Fuck off, motherfucker!
Use your key to activate the game on Steam, if you want the betas sooner... and stop being such an asshole!
I ain't seein' you going to BMW or MB, after buying the car, to get free technology and improvements installed, so don't act like you own the world.
You paid, you got what you paid for. Yo even had a very good chance to test the product, before buying it.
SO, shut the fuck up!!!
Apologies, people, but I couldn't help it.
SCS, please delete this comment.
Thank you.
Generally I keep out of the stupidity on this blog, but I can't help my self here.
DeleteSCS have just explained exactly why they use Steam for these Beta patches, which is an explanation that makes perfect sense. It's not the ideal situation, nor is it some conspiracy. But since every copy of the game can be activated on Steam. You have a choice. Use Steam, and get the Betas, don't use Steam, and don't get the Betas. It's that simple. Since most pc gamers use Steam, to the silent majority it isn't a problem.
Secondly in response to "Anonymous December 5, 2013 at 12:06 PM"
I've never read a more over entitled comment in the entire time I've been coming to this blog. So what your saying is the game you bought, which cost half of what most games cost on release, has to get all this new content, and this is something that is to be expected? When was the last time any other game company did this? It's not as though we're paying a monthly fee. Most games get bug fixes IF your lucky. I own quite a few games, that cost a lot more than ETS2, that have game breaking bugs that will never be fixed.The new volvo, Iveco, Scania, and eventually DAF could all quite easily be DLC, in most games they would have been, and really probably should have been. A lot of other new developments such as the up coming AI, new physics and then the already implemented fuel consumption simulation, air brake etc, could very easily have been held back for ATS or ETS 3. That is exactly what most companies would have done. Just because SCS chose to provide these improvements free of charge, it doesn't mean your actually entitled to them, try being a bit more thankful. The game you bought last year was still the best game in the genre, by a long way. Since then its improved a lot. SCS is, after all a business, and they've put a lot of extra man hours in to the game that they'll never see a penny for.
With so many users like you, I'm really not looking forward to the day SCS announce on this blog that ETS 2 is finished, and there will be no more feature updates Its going to be very interesting.

Delete@SCS - please do not let such idi... I mean customers as Mr. Anonymous earlier get to you. You and any other company will always have a small percentage of ungrateful bastards, which you CAN NOT satisfy because their purpose in life is to "demand" more and more and never be satisfied.
DeleteI think I speak on behalf of many satisfied customers (correct me if I'm wrong) - we're grateful for all the work you continuously put into this and other upcoming games and you'll see our support on your bank accounts upon each new release, keep them coming, what you've achieved with ETS2 considering the size of the original team is almost superhuman and we appreciate it.
Now @Anonymous... although... you know what, it's not even worth it ;)
@SCS thanks for the extensive explanation, I never complained about the betas for Steam players but you made a really good point, I didn't know that it was more difficult (time+money).
DeleteKeep doing what you do, we support you :)
PS: Any news about Coach Simulator?
I'm very delighted to see this new Scania and I will patiently wait for the official release to try this truck without steam. SCS is using steam to test new updates and than they will release finished work to all the non-steam players including me. So people come down everything will be fine. We need to wait a little longer than steam players, so what? :) They can't afford to lose non-steam players. Relax everybody and stop arguing. bolus(World of Trucks)
DeleteSCS you do talk a load of bollocks yes it may cost you money but think of the money you have made with all of us buying the retail version there are thousands if not millions who bought the retail version meaning shit loads of money for you guys yes we know you are foreign and yes we know foreign people hate splashing money but hey ho would you rather all Euro truck simulator 2 customers were happy if not then many people will not bother with your games anymore. Also you guys made loads of money buy making us pay for the DLC so pull your fingers out of each others crack holes and keep us all happy and stop favouring one over the other simple
DeleteColin Forknall: Thing is, you did get, what you paid for. You should be happy for it as it was released. At least i was happy i would be still, if SCS didn't update it.
DeleteI don't care, if SCS made huge money on it, because they could get their money and take a rest on beach while thinking about new game, such as Coach sim, ATS or ETS3. Many of other game developer do that and i can't imagine any other soft company which provides such development after sale without any additional costs...
And, if you can't wait, because you are such an imb****, you can transfer your game to Steam, believe or not, works the same way on it and you can try as much betas as you survive...
and nothing about new DAF and implementation in 1.8 version
ReplyDeleteintelligent observation du you think its maybe because the Daf is not in it???
Delete^becvause nobody expect that, shortly after making the photos and soundrecording, just wait a few month, scs sheduled some other things before, just read the blog...
DeleteWhat? You think they just pull these things out of thin air? It takes months to create, and test a new truck model I would imagine march at the very earliest for the new DAF.
DeleteNice work SCS, I will always support you, but why don't you release a beta patch for non-stream users, for everybody? Whatever, I'm not a Scania person, the Streamline looks good, but it will look better with a spoiler option on top of the highline cabin.
ReplyDeleteI'm also looking forward to the new ai code and your physics, I think they are the most important features.
And I will be happy if you will release a manual, a tutorial for the blender, so that i can work on my DAF XF, I want to make it more "Holland".
Thank you for every single improvement you've brought to this game, little things make a huge difference! Wish you team a Merry Chrismas!
Because logistically it makes no sense. They can push the beta to steam in no time.
DeleteOther avenues of release just don't make sense for beta releases.
Please SCS make a Christmas Skin DLC. I would buy it, to support your great efforts, you do for us. :)
ReplyDeletePorque vcs só liberam atualizações para jogadores do Steam, eu comprei o jogo e tenho direito também, isso não se faz, pois nós somos consumidores de vcs como todos os outros, logo temos direito!
ReplyDeleteClaramente não leste a mensagem acima escrita pela SCS.
DeleteA quantidade de usuários imbecis por aqui é imensa, viu...
Deleteativa o jogo na steam,se o seu for original,se for pirata nen precisa falar mais nada..
Deleteyeah nice streamliner, thnx SCS, keep up good work.
ReplyDeleteJust make some more skin-dlc on steam, I want buy them all.
Спасибо SCS за вашу работу ! Браво....
ReplyDeletein the next patch i want license of mercedes benz.add more truck.volvo fh 2013 with more cabine and iveco highway .the code of ai...
ReplyDeletetell that mercedes
DeleteTough shit, scs wont bow down to your demands little child
DeleteDear SCS,
ReplyDeleteI've download Steam, but, how can I play it free (I have bought the game as a PC DVD rom) on Steam. Please answer!
All genuine Product Keys issued by SCS Software for any retail or digital edition of our games also work as Steam Keys.
DeleteIn Steam client, in the top menu select Games > Activate a Product on Steam... and enter your Product Key to add the full version of the game to your library on Steam.
In steam go to Games -> Activate Product on Steam -> give it your code which was in the retail box. The game will appear in you Steam Library.
DeleteNow even in www.worldoftrucks.com you can register game via steam to use WoTR features (https://worldoftrucks.com/en/sign_in.php)
Hi, that doesn't work.. Do I need to download the demo first? I bought the game 1 year ago, does that make any different?
DeleteNo, if your key is genuine.
DeleteOn Steam the only you need is the genuine key. Then you can download the game from steam (anytime, anywhere)
DeleteHi everyone, thank you for helping me, it's finished, I can play.
DeleteI use Steam myself but not for this game. Can't wait to see this truck upclose though. I can be patient and see it later. I have naught against Steam but I do keep a few of my games free of it. Had enough Steam debacles that it helps if a few games aren't wrapped up in it. So while I don't mind the wait, don't forget about the rest of us! :) And by the way keep up the great work, but for now I have a load waiting!!
ReplyDelete@ all you over privileged, spoilt little children..
ReplyDeleteI'm a Father of two (one 17 and one 11) and i thank the stars that neither of them have the "I want, I demand, I deserve, I'm special goddammit! attitude that you oxygen leeching cretins have! It must be down to the Parenting?!
@ SCS thank you for your continued patience, support, dedication and devotion for your fanbase, please don't forget that these childish "expect the earth for nothing in return" blog monkeys are not your actual community fanbase, we are a far more mature and appreciative bunch, keep up the good work..
Well said post here. Patience is in short supply and Steam is a faster delivery solution. The non steam player will get their update but will have to wait longer ... that is what it is! Tough! Go and register your disk on steam if you can, else quit whining and have some patience.
DeleteIts with tear in my eyes I write this. Thank you, I've seen a few really nice comments here among all the bullshit, gives me some hope back.
DeleteSCS do more for us and this game we love then almost any developer out there often with way less resources then others, this game is a niche game after all, might be selling alright but its not COD, dont know how it stands up against farming simulator, hope it beats that, because that game is a mess compared to this.
I bought AC4 Black Flag yesterday, that game feel unfinished and broken. And cost alot more then ETS2 does, even if I count all DLC's it wouldbe cheaper to buy the sim.
Look at Forza released for Xbox One, apparently they withhold cars that where suppose to come with the game and are going to sell them as DLC's for insane prices. And SCS, spends months on trucks and just give them away for free to us, and still people come here and more or less spit in SCS devs faces... its heartbreaking reading some of the stupid shit people say here.
So THANK YOU for the positive comments.
and BIG TANKS to SCS! You guys are awesome, I've said it so many times, and you guys dont disapoint so I will keep saying it! :D
I said I could wait and be patient, so if your comment was aimed at me it was off the mark. I realize Steam is a much cheaper delivery system for SCS. Doesn't bother me. If my opinion bothers you I just hope you didn't teach your children that respect for others opinions. If your comment wasn't aimed at me, well have a nice day!
DeleteJames, with respect, you're over worrying and being a little sensitive here. In my view, your December 5, 2013 at 1:35 PM comment just happened to be posted 6 minutes prior to 'Anonymous' December 5, 2013 at 1:41 PM comment which appears to be in reply to much earlier comments higher up the thread [although no direct reference was been stated]. I think it is fair to say, and with respect, none was replying to your comment and as no direct reference has been stated by Anonymous, you've no need to be concerned. For what it's worth, your comment was fair.
DeleteBrilliant job scs, love the truck
ReplyDeleteeuro truck 2 Simulator 27 euro and euro truck going east 24.90
ReplyDeletewe pay the more expensine by the holders of steam.
DeleteNothinghas loweredthe intensity of therockingcabin, the previousversion wasbetter,more realistic.
ReplyDeleteThis was fixed in 1.8.2 already.
DeleteMaybe 2013 MAN TGX with sound is coming soon??!!
ReplyDeletepossible to activate no steam account to steam account with the product key?
ReplyDeleteyes in steam, you'll see in the bottom left corner "add game" click on that, then click on add product to steam, enter the serial key (CD key) That came with your copy of ETS 2 and it will work :)
DeleteУважаемые SCS , У меня лицензия CD_ROM+DLC . Я активировал игру на Steam но не могу активировать DLC . Скажите пожалуйста , в чем проблема ? Спасибо !
ReplyDeleteобращайся на оф форум, возможно там тебе помогут
DeleteHow I can play the update 1.8 on steam??
ReplyDeleteI don't think SCS is favouring STEAM players .... it's just a simple fact that STEAM is a faster deliver solution. Running a BETA via steam makes for an improved products for disk based players .....and makes sense. It is a known up front that Steam will offer faster deliver.
ReplyDeletePersonally SCS, take the time you need to get the AI update correct and proper .......
Patch 1.9 will already DAF XF Euro 6?
ReplyDeleteSomeone help me please.
ReplyDeleteI have installed ETS2 via my product key on Steam. The version is now 1.7.1s. How do I update it to the 1.8 Beta?
Quoting from an earlier post on this blog: "To access the beta on Steam, right click on the game's title in Library, select Properties, go to Betas tabs, and pick "public_beta" build. This version of the game should be fully compatible with all save games and stored profiles of the 1.7.x edition of the game."
DeleteYou need to go to steam settings for ETS2 and activate public beta
DeleteThanks, SCS! Looking forward to the new update and new Scania! Keep up the good work! :)
ReplyDeletebecause they have not yet put this game online
ReplyDeleteNice job SCS!!!
ReplyDeleteCould you please add spoiler to highline and add AMT to gearbox?
Christ it's not that hard! JUST ACTIVATE YOUR NON STEAM VERSION ON STEAM! I did it.... And you know what, it works..
ReplyDelete+1
DeleteI hope spoiler can be added on Highline and Normal cab for Scania
ReplyDeleteMe too, it would make more sence and look nicer. :)
DeleteFINALLY THANK YOU SO MUCH SCS!!!! :D :D :D
ReplyDeleteImprove multiplayeeer mooooood.
ReplyDeletenothing + improvement = nothing XD
DeleteWell was it so fucking hard to explain why you want us to use Steam SCS?
ReplyDeleteYou could've just explained it to us and then some people would've understood why you release some content for Steam-only.
Might as well dust of the Orange Box now...
People bashing Steam remind me of 2004. It's 2013 people, nowadays Steam is a great service. I'm a user since 2003, with hundred of games, and never had any problem. Recently my Internet went down for a week and I have to say that offline mode works like a charm.
ReplyDeletethank you scs for a great truck sim and the new scania I love this game and I am 56 years old and it keeps me trucking on on the beta scania the right hand drive drivers side is missing the euro 6 badge and all cabs g and r series need the air management kits spoilers to none truckers keep up the great work thanks
ReplyDeletei must comment on this..it don't take much effort to register your games on steam..i just done mine in 5mins so top your complaining and take a few mins to register your games on steam..SCS ignore these complainers who are never happy with anything..you are doing an awesome job with ETS2 which is the best game of it's type..i appreciate all the hard work you are doing and keep it up..you guys are awesome
ReplyDeleteThank you SCS much appreciated :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice truck, i've noticed that you also changed the physics.
ReplyDeleteI drive with the new volvo and when I put the breaks on, it almost looks if the cabin falls of the chassis.
I think it is a little too much
First of all don't let these people who complain all the time bother you guys. Some people will never be happy no matter what you guys do.You guys have put together quite a little gem of a game here and congratulations to all of you!
ReplyDeleteWith the updates coming fast and furious and most importantly the communication you have with us ,you guys are doing a hell of a job. I tell ya if I could meet you guys in person the drinks would be on me.Keep up the great job your doing guys and a merry Christmas to all of you and your families.
In Scania dash fuel consumption gadget(below speedometer) doesn't show the same info as fuel consumption in the LCD screen. In top gear it stops at around 55l/100 and in LCD it still climbing to 60,70+l/100km
ReplyDeleteI don't drive Scania's a lot, so i just noticed this when i bought Scania Streamline.
Looks like a small bug to me.
That is becouse Top gear is about cars, and Scania is a truck, it comsumes a lot more fuel.
DeleteAre you stupid, or just want attention? By "top gear" i mean, 12th gear in the truck. I'm not talking about the TV Show. Those two gauges doesn't match when driving in "top gear". Gauge under the speedometer is off and doesn't show the same as dash LCD display.
DeleteAlso, in Volvo Classic trubo gauge in the dash still doesn't work properly when in 8th or higher gear. This is probably because SCS made dash animations when speed limiter was always on. Now that you can turn it off in the settings, some dash animations are off when going more than speed limiter, when it was on.
DeleteActually you don't even have to drive over the speed limit to see that the animations are off....
DeleteScania gauge show instant consumption in litres per 100km, display shows average consumption in litres per 100km and instant consumption in litres per hour. These three values are all different.
DeleteThanks for clearing that up. Now it makes sense! So this just leaves Volvo dash.
DeletePsst... SCS, c'mon, i know you can fix it
Not sure what hapend with my last comment, but anyway here it is:
ReplyDeletea guy posted on youtube a clip with title " what is the future of ets2? ". Really people wake up and work on this game, don`t ignore your players and don`t be another "EA" and loose everything you won...
i don't like you
DeleteErm, what?
DeleteMake original wheels pack!!!
ReplyDeleteSCS, I have an idea and that is to make the final version of the Scania Streamline 2013 the one with the lowered front end, I really like that look more than the one you have made :D
ReplyDeleteReally nice addition after the Volvo :) I think the highline spoiler is the only thing that is missing in the game. Other than that, the game keeps getting better and better. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteI think older models of trucks should be made. Like the 4 series and MAN TGA etc. Maybe even ERF ;) And I think there should also be traffic jams and a bigger variety of delivery venues. Not all RDCs etc
ReplyDeleteI don't have anything against having older trucks in the game, but it would take too much time.
DeleteAnd traffic jams? No thanks, people are not playing games to just sit behind their desk, staring at the screen and doing nothing. Well, at least I don't...
they did and updating with NEW Volvo,but the sounds and created within 3 hours .lying tales you can fix it guicly.
ReplyDeleteCrazy good! I thought the DAF was next and it would take quite a while for a new truck. This is great. I can't find enough time to play as much as i want but i'm getting more and more trucks. Haven't tried the new Volvo even yet...
ReplyDeleteSo happy to see new trucks! That's great! SCS is my favorite game developer, i really got a lot for my money. Thank you SCS!
Looking forward to the new AI code. Nowadays it's all about Steam, but I hope and know you will treat us physical copy-people with respect and that we won't get ripped off.
ReplyDeleteEVENTUALLY?!?
ReplyDeleteWhy the heck only EVENTUALLY for non-steam users? <.<
Because SCS favoring fu.. steam...
DeleteOlla Meyhill .... I'm from Earth ...which planet are you from?
DeleteTo be honest I don't see much difference compared to the normal Scania R... Can anyone enlighten me?
ReplyDeleteIt gets slightly better fuel consumption...
DeleteYes, Scania removed on the left and right front sides big things wich worked as a mirror and door handles cleaner, in stead of this, the add tiny flaps with a chrome edge, just above the headlights. They also changed the sunshade. Al this improvements are just for save fuel and you can't see these very well. At last, they changed the interior, now SCS has made a V8 exclusife. Saving fuel were the thoughts of the Scania men, not make a whole new truck, like Volvo did.
DeleteThanks for the explanation! :)
DeleteBut does that mean the Streamline is a Euro6 truck?
Yes, it is a Euro 6 truck. :)
Deletehow do I use a beta? the stem asks for a verification code, which code is this?
ReplyDeleteHave games on steam but will always prefer the non steam games
ReplyDeleteAmazing work so far SCS. I love what you have done. I'm a scania person and this update is looking fantastic. But it would make more sense if the (Highline) and the (Normal) cab had spoiler. I t would make the truck more aerodynamic and looks much better. I have wanted spoiler for scania trucks sinse I started to play this awesome game. Thank you SCS for the greate and fantastic work and effort you have been putting in this game. I love it so far and still will love it. :)
ReplyDeleteWHERE IS THE PHYSICS! sorry for yelling, but i have the new scania streamline and i noticed i got relistic cab bounce, turned the game off, when i came back the scania was there but it was stiff again
ReplyDeletethat's not realistic bounce.. it was an error...
Deletequand sera t-il possible de poser des leds sur les calandre comme bon nous semble et sur l’arrière des cabines
ReplyDeleteprobably, never.
Deletethere are mods that do it, however :)
Aren't there enough trucks in game already? Physics and AI are much more important areas to improve, and making new trucks distracts resources from these goals.
ReplyDeleteNo. In fact, there are not enough trucks at all. The more trucks coming, the better the game gets.
DeletePlease add Streamline spoiler!
ReplyDeletehttp://i3.minus.com/ibuZdkc5Ko6BKh.jpg
Dasquirellnuts haha scania hippy. He makes all the scania fans look bad. His overreacting and monywhoreish behaviour doesn't help either.
ReplyDeletePlease stop promoting that guy.
Spoiler pls!
ReplyDeletePlease, add spoilers like the real life scania

Is it hard to do Spoilers for Scania highline???
ReplyDeletePersonally, i don't like this model. Need to re-make it like a real Scania!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, good job.
...the fuck is this guys talking about?
DeleteProblem ?
DeleteOh come on,give this beta for non steam player.
ReplyDelete3 months later....again
SCS you promise AI re-write, optimization of game, new trucks, real sounds, but all you did is a minor customization of Scania wich a moder can do in 1 hour...
ReplyDeleteAlso hdr and bloom need to be remake, ability for player to change driver position without using camera mods, better antialiasing and much more.
So please stop giving us promises and excuses and make it happen.

Also hdr and bloom need to be remake, ability for player to change driver position without using camera mods, better anti-aliasing and much more [which I am sure you are already aware of and have on your list of things to do. I mention these items as they are important to me and appreciate that you have an understanding of where these items appear in your prioritised 'todo' list. ]
So please stop giving us promises and excuses and make it happen..... [is not the message of this post even if sentenses above may communicate that. You have always been clear and transparent with the community, you've always been upfront about your capabilities, the size of your engineering team and the speed at which you can move. You've also clearly stated many times that you will not push out rushed unfinished updates. Nevertheless, my enthusiasm for this game is so strong that it is difficult to contain the feeling of "I want it NOW". I know you understand many in the community feel the same because the base game is SO good and that you use this to maintain your motivation to develop and improve the game further.]
[Many thanks for a great game and keep on truckin']
The truck is very nice! I hope the new man is coming soon on this game! You're the best scs!
ReplyDeleteOnly thing missing from the truck is Sideskirts for the 6x4..if it had those then it would be perfect
ReplyDelete6x4 and also, for 6x2
Deletevery very good job , I (and mush more others) love Scania trucks !
ReplyDeleteand if possible make also the Renault T in the future
I don't mind for postponing the AI, as long as it will be (almost) perfect and more intelligent.
I have a question regarding steam since I'm not familiair with it.
ReplyDeleteBeing a customer with a non-steam copy, if I add my game to a steam account will it show up in the steam library, do you need steam to start the game?
And what if I would like to install my game on a new computer, will my product key still work even without internet access = no usage of steam. Or once I add it to a steam account I need to use steam included forever?
Thanks :)
So SCS, the DAF is truck nr1 and this Scania truck nr2? (New ones)
And will the previous update 1.7.2 also be included with update 1.8 for non steam users?
Awesome work seeing the youtube video but personally I don't like the 'flaps' above the headlights, kinda look weird :D
Oh and what about MB? Are they still negative about giving their permission to use their name and logo, any news on that topic? :)
With Steam you can access ETS2 from anywhere where steam is installed. Game is always on your account library. If you don't have internet, you still can play offline with Steam.
DeleteSaves for ETS2 stored only on one machine, so you'd need to take them with you as ETS2 doesn't support (I hope yet) saving to steam cloud, where even all your saves would be backed up.
New Streamline feels great btw!

ReplyDeletenice truck but still no useful and important stuff added to progress the game like more drivers i would like a reply from pavel to explain to us why there isn't enough drivers to fill all garage slots we pore in 100's of hours in the game to find out you cant progress your company to the max amount of drivers to garages.

DeleteЗаймитесь игровым процессом уже, хватит клепать эти грузовики от них ничего не меняется, не забывайте это симулятор, а не аркада для красивых скриншотов.

DeleteHow can I Get this on Steam?? I Have brought this in a Shop and not on Steam. I Downloaded the Demo and the Game is normal than the Full VErsion, but I can`t get the Betas... It Say`s that i must get a Beta-Code. Can anyone help me...??
ReplyDeleteGo here http://store.steampowered.com/about/ Download the Steam app, and register an account. Once you have the Steam app, in the bottom left corner you'll see "add games" click on that, then go to activate product" enter the serial number that came with your copy of the game. it will prompt you to install it on steam, go through the download and installation.
DeleteOnce you've done that right click on Euro truck simulator 2, and click properties. At the next to end tab you'll see "betas" click that,then you'll see another option at the top on a drop down menu "select the beta you would like to opt in to". In the drop down menu select "public beta - Early Access" Close at the bottom, and your game will update automatically to 1.8 :)

ReplyDeleteI have a question regarding ETS2! I have bought the game when it was released back then on your website and now I would like to activate it via steam so I can have the (beta) patches too (Scania Streamline etc) but if install the game later again if I would buy a new computer will the key still work (without steam)
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Nice features and I really do like the custom paint job which is cheap considering I repaint my truck to match the trailer I have to deliver every single run. Crazy aint I! :D :P
ReplyDelete@SCS Team, guys i use manual retarder (keys A n D) instead of brakes (key S) and I was thinking if it's possible to get it on the dashboard meter just like you have it in the Iveco Hi Way & new Volvo where once the retarder is activated you get to see it in on the dashboard meter.
Stop favoring fucking steam

Deletei agree non-steam users like me should be allowed to get DLC paint-jobs but if u want paint-jobs then go get some freaking paint-job mods.
Delete+ infinite! This is a shame that we have to wait for so long! Steam users are already on v1.8.2 while the "boxed users" are still stucked on v1.7.1! Wake up SCS! We paid for the game!
DeleteI would like to thank SCS for their excellent work so far and encourage them to continue it into the future. I also thank SCS for the provision of what would normally be DLCs, for absolutely nothing. You've always explained your actions and have been transparent on the blog.
ReplyDeleteI started ETS2 mainly to escape a vile simulation company who learnt the greedy ways of EA (and has an ex-EA man as the head!). Sadly, the comments here remind me of the vile community who play that vile simulation game. I really hope SCS will not get detracted by these comments as there are many who really appreciate your efforts.
why you dont make the v8 sideskirts like the real ones..........please fix the roof from the scanias.........its to much rounded on the top
ReplyDeleteWHAT THE HELL!!!!!! WY ALWAYS STEAM STEAM STEAM!!!? VOTE FOR NON- STEAM. SCS if the next update only (or first) for steam is........THAN You know what i mean!!
ReplyDeleteWell said, my friend. Well said.

DeleteFavoring fucking steam...
well you can't read for sure
DeleteCurrently 1.8 is available in beta branch on Steam. This should be the final testing window, hopefully very short, and soon we'll be able to bring it out of beta on Steam and eventually also release the standalone patch for non-Steam players. Retail update takes quite longer to produce and test, plus setup the mirror servers so that our own infrastructure isn't immediately overloaded. But rest assured that it is coming asap as well.
thats why steam get it first so steam users can test it end wen it good then it come to retailers so stfu end let this great scs team do there work good !!!
It's nice to have all these updates and I really do appreciate them, it would be nice to have other features in the game like: Working fog lights that help in the fog and also more realistic trailers. Thanks SCS for all the great stuff
ReplyDelete+1
Delete+ 1... and more type of trailers.... and
DeleteI just want to say I'm a very happy customer of SCS and I think they make the best simulators, especially the truck ones. Maybe in one year or so we'll get the chance to play ETS 3 with more Europe on it, like whole Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, GB, Scandinavia and some more eastern countries like Romania (my country), former Yugoslavia etc. And then put there all truck companies with all their truck models. That would really be owsome. I would pay even 40 E for that game. Best of luck SCS!
ReplyDeletePS: well, maybe you will make it cheaper then what I said :D
Great SCS, now we really got a Scania!
ReplyDeleteBut we miss that low front bumper...there are 2 versions (one like you already did and one more low, most used on V8) and the Topline and Highline logos on roof as acessories (like you did on the New FH). If you can add it would be amazing!
-Polaco
hi can anyone help me i have CD version of the game and dlc going east for CD version but was thinking of going to steam version and don't know the difference between them apart from auto updates also was concerned if i loose any progress and the game play is different and is it recommended to be on steam any advice would be much appreciated thanks
ReplyDeletethis is shit... i paid like 35€ for cd game and pre ordered it and now you release updates to steam users whos paid like 5€ from your game ?? wtf
ReplyDeleteSCS favoring steam......
Deletefuck you steam.
fuck you twice AnonymousDecember 8, 2013 at 3:13 PM!
DeleteI also paid 35 Euros but i activated my game after the Halloween DLC is released.I also purchased through steam Going East DLC. Its so easy to activate the game on steam.Steam is currently being used by 6 million people its so easy to be one of them. And like scs has said in previous updates "The logistics of the release is actually quite simpler for us when working with Steam."Although i have a steam account for many years i didnt play my games on steam.ETS2 was the first game that i played on steam. Now the shop sells it at 13 Euros.
Kiedy wreszcie otrzymamy ten cholerny patch wcześniej niż steam? zwykłe olewanie graczy...
ReplyDeleteso..it's not clear when would I see the streamline scania truck ? on 1.8 or on 1.9 ?
ReplyDeleteScania Streamline is available at 1.8 beta on steam. What we will see on 1.9 is the new ai code with new physics. And maybe Daf Euro 6 or else in a future patch.
DeletePlease SCS Software try to release 1.9 this month. I would be happy if you released in January but if you will release it this month i will be super-happy
no all non steam users moanin en screamin
ReplyDeleteare you fuckin siriously ? cmon stfu end let scs do there job
steam user are lets me say it good testers for retailers
wen its good it will be out for you to be happy that scs spent so much time on this game to be good lets support them for there great job so far
i got steam too but why should i buyi game to steam if pre ordered it looong time ago ?? and this is great job and i like game very much
Deleteyou can activate you're game on steam if you have you're production key you dont need to buy it again on steam
Deletethen you can add beta on it so you have you're game up to date
cool merci scs.bonne continuation pour les futurs mise a jour.je suis sur steam et je ne vois pas ou est le probleme.pourquoi certains joueurs n y vont pas?
ReplyDeletethere are so many usefull things to discuss, and you people are trolling about steam/ no steam version :( sad, very sad
ReplyDeleteTo the creators: please focus on the core game, after all the improvements, still lacks in many feature, and is further unrealistic. is called improper "euro" but all the Scandinavia is missing, irland, france, spain, portugal, italy, still half of hungary, and others.
Seatbelt, fog lights, more realistic interiors, a decent AI with steering and spinning wheels animations, the drivers hands and legs on the wheel/pedal.
I agree with the competition, but I propose the winner(s) taking part at least for 1 year from SCS (developing another skins and stuff, that will arrive to us via steam, but please not again 6 skins / 2 euro, put at least 8 pcs / 2 euro)
The new Scania looks good, maybe till it comes out gets all the proper retouching it needs.
Hey have a look at my world off trucks profile( https://www.worldoftrucks.com/en/online_profile.php?id=33362 ) for a cool streamline truck photo more is coming if i get many enough likes and favorits thx
ReplyDeleteI didn't read all the comments. Maybe it was mentioned before. Since I like my not streamline Scania R ... is it maybe possible to give access to the V8 interior for the standard Scania R ? I would really appreciate that, because it is just beautiful.
ReplyDelete... maybe one can mod that in, but if it is not too much work ... would be nice to not need another mod for that.
Streamline in ETS2 can have only for money?
ReplyDeleteВсем привет. Во первых, хочу сказать SCS большее человеческое спасибо за такой прекрасный проект симулятора. Во вторых, хочу попросить разработчиков, что бы в следующем обновлении немного поправили счетчик одометра на панели приборов. Что бы с начало накручивал 0-100 метров, а потом километры, а потом десятки и тысячи.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know why on 1.8.2.5 my truck turns pink? In 1.7.1 it also turned pink and has been really annoying. I have tried downloading fixes but my computer says there a threat and wont let me put it on there. Can anyone please help me?
ReplyDeleteThe developer loves the players on steam, so why not start a mod workshop on steam for them. After all this title went mainstream because of us should we get a workshop.
