Territory expansion in upcoming ETS2 Update 1.19

Greetings,

Euro Truck Simulator 2 Update 1.19 is nearing completion. The closed beta is in full swing and hopefully next week we will be able to start the final stage of testing - and offer you access to a public beta.

In this short blog let's just touch one small but nice feature that this update will bring you. We are expanding Going East! content with more of the Hungarian territory, bringing you two new cities: Pécs and Szeged. As you can see on the map, quite a few kilometers of new roads were created to provide good connection to the older section of the map.


Here are a couple of fresh screenshots from the new part of the game world:

    4. what is the point in us paying more money for just two cities . what I'm trying to say is if scs is going to at least make more interesting and worthwhile . for example us making delivers to airports or delivering mail to a factory or company in the city center at least .

    5. @ uchiha Ty: you do realize that the title says ETS2 update 1.19, which means the two cities will be added free of charge?

    2. Going East and Scandanavia are two different DLCs, you can't expect them to mix assets as some users will not have both. Nor can you expect them to add the Scandanavian assets to the Going East file for the sake of two cities, as that would considerably bloat the download. It would only be worth it if they were to revamp the entire map using the latest assets, which would be nice and likely make for a considerable improvement in many of the original areas, but would be a very big job.

  49. 1. Tip :
    Mode of driving winch trucks, with special missions to tow trailers broken up workshops. That would be viable ? It seems to me a good challenge.

    2. Doubt :
    Why the load limit is 25t ?

    3. Recognition :
    The work and the dedication that the SCS software has with its customers, serves as a reference for any gamer world. No other company I know , especially the giant , has the artistic concerns of completion and improvement as anybody . Keep up the excellent work.

      Really??? Are you sure about this??? I' d accept this if you' re a kid otherwise this is the most stupid thing I can hear now!
      Let me give you some example (considering that there' s always business\marketing strategy inside) : Frontier Development, Elite Dangerous--got many free patches (the last was really big!), newsletter nr. 80 (scs? newsletter nr. 1!! Ridiculous, considering that this game is way older than Elite!) and the devs themselves are active in their forums (Dev update, answering questions) while Scs...ehmm, check their forum! Rarely you' ll see dev comments. Asked some questions in Scs forum, never got an answer , asked questions in Elite forums, got answers.
      Second example: Blizzard, D3-- They just launched the PTR these days because they' re going to spit out a big patch (free!!), amazing improvements and modifications. Why? Because the community suggested things and complained about something something. In their forums devs and community managers participated actively in many discussions. Also got many free patches.
      In conclusion, next time, please don't write down things that are non sense!! Because this is the worst team IF you want to compare this to that. In reality, you can' t even make a comparison between Scs and "giants". Scs is a bacteria while "giants" are whales.

      I compared the SCS posture with the giants, but keeping the proportions . you know , you know, that there's no way to make a direct comparison between SCS and Blizzard. And I think that within that small businesses do, I feel satisfied with their work.

      The level of knowledge, should see what the famous Digital Polyphone (Sony ) did in the last simulator Gran Turismo . They copied a straight face the cars of the previous generation , without making interior, only paraganhar numbers. They turned off the online servers GT5 still full of players to force the migration to GT6 . And all of these updates are in practice , concept cars that are nothing more than spreading the companies . This is an example , where the SCS win easy in terms of respect. Sorry for the long text , but I had to explain.

      With the threshold 25t is not necessary more than 400CV to transport with ease. Making irrelevant to 750cv engine .

  59. According to Google search.... ETS2 official release date was... October 19, 2012.... making ETS2 almost 3 years old. In the gaming world where games are usually scaled in series once per 4-6 years... that puts ETS2 at about "middle age".

    I think we had to wait something like 5 years for Sims 4 to arrive. While also, Mass Effect 3 release date was March 6, 2012... and the next Mass Effect game is advertised as coming out for the holidays in 2016 (maybe around christmas).

    However, its easier to understand why a game like "The Sims" can last 5 years on the market before needing to scale up to the next iteration... like from sims 3 to sims 4.... simply because each DLC is "new stuff"..... which revamps the fan hype and playing experience of the game as a whole.

    ETS2, though its only reaching what can be termed as... "middle age".... quickly leaves you with the feeling of... "been there, done that" numbness in your brain.... because each DLC isn't really "new stuff"... but rather, the old stuff giving to you "again". ETS2 really hasn't changed in its nearly 3 years of life. What we have today, as compare to back in October, 2012, is the same thing.... just more of it. The old stuff keeps getting recycled into a new add-on feature.

    I'm not saying I don't like the 2 speed windshield wipers. And yes, being able to adjust the seat is pretty cool. But, in my opinion, ETS2 is in very, very bad need of "new stuff". Where is the new stuff???

    And by "new stuff"... I DON'T mean ... the old stuff recycled into a new DLC.... "again".

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. So what would you like to see? Personally only what I missing is bigger scale of the map and amount of details on basic ets map(Germany, UK etc.).

      Delete
    2. I am amazed, that with ETS2 being almost 3 years old... a game that is base on the whole idea of "trucking"... that we are all still waiting for Rigids and Tandems. I agree...It would appear that we have recieved new trucks in the game.... but in reality, we recieved the same old thing... recycled into a new update, or DLC. Its NOT new. Changing the grill on the truck and calling it a "Scania", instead of an "Iveco" is NOT new. Rigids and Tandems are new. NOT the same truck again with different cosmetics and/or paint jobs.

      And don't even try to purchase your own trailers. Its a trucking game.... and its even suggested that you can run your own trucking company... but you can't purchase your own trailers. Really???

      What would I like to see added as "new". How about the ability to customize your garage? The ability to purchase your own trailers? The addition of Rigids and Tandems. More stuff to spend your in-game money on. I'm not going to say "Seasons" because I very much doubt we'll ever see snow.

      Delete
    3. I agree with you. It needs changes for start rigid trucks, tandems and the seasons, buying trailers. This will change the game. If it's to hard for implement, it will be better to start working on ETS3.

      Delete
    4. Personally, I think SCS should just start working on ETS3. ETS2 has pretty much reached it's saturation. All its doing now is repeating itself. Look at the 1.19 patch that's coming... featuring "more roads". Are you serious? More roads? Again?

      Why is SCS still spending time on creating more roads? Each hour SCS spends on giving us what we already have.... is an hour NOT spent on giving us something new.

      Its so frustrating spending so much time and money on a game that continues to .... not go anywhere. There's no growth. Just the old things recycled again, and again, to appear new.

      I vote for ETS3.

      Delete
    5. i cast my vote if they promise to focus on genre.....of so called simulation.....rather can creating a fun game.....

      Delete
    6. OMG personally i think your an idiot ;) So you rather have them throw out a game every ear making you pay 50 Euro then giving us free stuff on and on? Wow... i love the game, even after 3 years and i play it alot. More roads they say, THANK YOU i say, its free? Wow thats awesome...

      Keep up the good work SCS, Scandinavia is awesome and beautiful. Add in some more smalelr DLC's maybe some more addon parts / signs / LED strobes / LED or Flashbeacons stuff like that as paid DLC to keep you up and running. Will gladly invest more into this great game.

      Delete
    7. An idiot???? That's your opening argument??? Every year???? That's your added misconception???? Well holy wow. First of all, I didn't say throw the game out. I for one will still play ETS2. Second... do you seriously think ETS2 can last 3 more years on the path its on now? Seriously??? Lets look closer at the game shall we?

      ETS2 is a 2 variable game....

      VARIABLE 1: Hauling trailers up and down the road. Which, after nearly 3 years, has provided us with a bunch of carbon copy trucks decorated with a bit of different cosmetics and paint jobs. They change the grill, add skirts, and presto... its now called a new truck. Pfffffffffft. And don't even get me started on the fact that there is very little simulation. You turn on the lights and wipers, adjust the seat, and buy gas. That pretty much sums it up. If you like, we can also talk about how the trucks, though they look like trucks, act very little like trucks. They jump forward like a cat pouncing prey, and travel the map like a rodent trapped in a geographical maze frantically looking for the exit.

      VARIABLE 2: Running a company. Really? Running a company? That's what we are doing? We get a garage that we can't do anything with, that apparently has no monthly bills whatsoever. We can't see our trucks parked in this garage, nor can we see our trucks on the road. What we "do" get however, is an on-going/endless background text script telling us that Miss Drivemore just delivered another trailer. That folks is.... running a trucking company.

      But have no fear. SCS will likely give us some free stuff soon to make the game even more exiting. Such as more radio stations and roads. Or maybe, more paint jobs and roads. Lately SCS added more tires we can buy (which still do nothing)... oh, and... soon... more roads.

      For those of you wanting more roads... this is likely a stab in the dark but... i'm guessing SCS just might be working on that right now lol.

      Delete
    8. in fact you are definitely right.
      with all the poor evolution, this game is still crap and very boring.
      many said that it was a great step from the release day, and that is true once more, BECAUSE at the release it was the KING of CRAP.
      I wait for ETS3 , hopefully more calitative and realistic, with more posibilities to spend money, with real company management, not just false marketing on their new webpage. A must have: bigger map scale and time scale. And DX 11 at least for better graphic posibilities. And using a way better software for creating models and rendering.

    9. You are all right but new territory and new country are necessary and they can be use in ETS3 so that's why they are doing it. They have used the map from ETS to ETS2. The question is this: is it better to enlarge the map or do something that we expect? E.g. in my opinion, not enough people are working on new models of trucks. I suspect that they are working on ATS. Maybe too many projects at the same time? SCS must introduce something new to the game, all the time, otherwise it won't be selling well. Sometimes I prefer to pay for the new addition and to have it than wait indefinitely. If not bring major changes to the ETS 2, it is better to finish this project and start ETS3.

    11. In my opinion, ETS2 is still a really great game. Its the best driving game i've played so far. But that doesn't change the fact that, more so than not, it still seems empty. The problem i'm having is that the game feels.... "one dimensional".

      I've stated above that the game is a 2 variable game, ie; delivering trailers, and running a trucking company. However, because the "running a trucking company" variable is pretty much non existant, we keep getting pushed back to the first variable.... delivering yet another trailer. We can't take a break from delivering trailers and go work on something else for a while.... because there "isn't" something else to do or work on.

      This causes a major issue for ETS2.... because once we do decide that we don't want to deliver another trailer.... we stop playing the game. And when we stop playing the game.... that becomes a major issue for SCS.

      The fact that we can't even see the fleet of trucks we purchase is also a major downside. We can't line them up in our garage, or parking lot to appreciate our accomplishment. Never mind not being able to purchase trailers.... we don't even get our trucks.

      In my opinion, SCS needs to stop copying and pasting yesterdays ideas as a new addition.... and take a step back. Rather than continue to build the game they have, they need to fix the game they have. At the very least, fix the "run a company" variable.

    12. But running a company it's only a addition. For me personally, it might not be at all. Like they wrote some time ago, most of the peopole want only to drive by truck. I also just want it. For me a challenge will be rigid truck and the seasons, something else. I think a lot of people are waiting for it too.

  60. I think they should add the following:
    More France (e.g. Nantes, Nice, Bordeaux, Marseille, Toulouse, etc.)
    Spain (eg, Barcelona, Murcia, Bilbao, Madrid, Malaga, Seville, Vigo, etc.)
    Portugal (eg, Lisbon, Portimao, Braga, Porto, etc.)
    More Italy ( eg, Florence, Rome, Naples, Bari, Catonia, Palermo, etc.)
    Kalingrad
    Lithuania (eg, Siauliai, Kauna, Vilnius, etc.)
    Latvia (eg, Riga, Liepaja, Rezekne, Daugavoils, etc.)
    Estonia (eg, Tallinn, Parnu, Tartu, etc.)
    Belarus (eg, Hrodna, Minsk, Homyel, etc.)
    Slovenia (eg, Trieste, Ljubljana, etc.)
    Croatia (eg, Zagreb, Zadar, Split, etc.)
    Bosnia (eg, Banka Luka, Sarajevo, Mostar, Etc.)
    Montenegro (eg, Dubrovnik, Podgorica, etc.)
    Albania (eg, Tirana, Durres, Korce, Vlore, etc.)
    Moldova (eg, Cahul, Dubasari, etc.)
    Romania (eg, Bucharest, Timisuara, Cluj-Napora, Constanta, etc.)
    Serbia (eg, Belgrade, Pristina, Cacak, Valjevo, etc.)
    Bulgaria (eg, Varna, Burgas, Sofia, etc.)
    Macedonia (eg, Skopje, Kumanovo, Prilep, Bitola, etc.)
    Greece (eg, Patras, Sparta, Athens, Larisa, Volos, Thessoloniki, Kavala, etc.)
    EU part of Turkey (eg, Edirne, Istanbul, Bursa, Balikesir, Izmir, Antalya, Konya, Ankara, etc.)
    Ireland (eg, Dublin, Cork, Belfast, etc,)

  61. Where the information about the ATS? You are not investing in that game?

    1. Have you forgotten that ATS was revealed on E3? SCS is investing on ATS, and maybe you have not seen yet the gameplay videos.

  62. Following onto the last post - I understand non of this is possible very soon - but some more UK places would be nice, like the following:
    Leeds
    Some companies in Hull
    Middlesbrough
    Dundee
    Inverness
    Norwich
    Exeter
    Bristol

    1. I think it needs Norwich, Bristol, Leeds, Inverness, Nottingham, Oxford, Blackpool and York to fill some gaps – not so sure about Middlesbrough (shit hole) but maybe Darlington.

      I think they should add Barrow-in-Furness, which would force them to design the Lake District region to drive through from Carlisle or the M6. This simulator needs more "beauty spots" to increase its visual appeal, and the Lake District counts as the most prestigious in England for awe and beauty.

      Delete
    2. The Peak District is also a very nice place to drive through, but doesn't seem to feature in ETS2. The peak districts hills and lakes etc, would also be a nice addition.

  63. still no double trailer!? im about to walk away from truck sims for good, along with alot of others.

    1. You'd probably have a better chance of being taken seriously if you made a polite request in the proper place rather than making childish idle threats on a blog. Walking away won't achieve anything because you already own the game, therefore they already have your money and have nothing to lose by your "walking away". Also, why bother speaking for other people when you're clearly not in a position to represent them? Some people are just born rude and self-centered.

    2. so many people b**ching around here... asking for that ugly a** Renault T truck, Man Euro 6 (changed only the front grill....) I think those guys must say Thanks to SCS for making the best trucking simulator for PC, and releasing free contents, yeh u may complain about the scandinavia dlc price, but that DLC will guarantee you more than 48 hours of fun playing on it, maybe 100 hours...

      Delete
    3. The Renault T truck isn't that ugly, and there do appear to be quite a lot of requests for it, making it a fairly popular truck. There's quite a fair amount of panel area for different designs to cover nicely. Beauty or beast, it's a matter of personal choice. The more trucks SCS can add to the game, the better, because it will attract a bigger audience and encourage them to add even more features, trucks and maps.

    4. Renault T ugly ??? I think it is a very beautiful and unusual truck. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S8DbI0fqgQ

    5. well i dont mind the renault. and im not really demanding doubles, im more just shaking my head at the fact they already had it in the game engine and took it out when so many people wanted it. and walking away isnt a threat either, im literally bored of the truck games. you try playing ET2? cause thats the best thing us aussies have.

      Delete
    6. What do you mean it's the best Aussies have? You virtually have the entire range of Steam to choose from, like the rest of us...

  68. well d game seem d best scored 75-80 and following review on wiki..

    The game was generally well received by critics, holding a score of 79/100 on Metacritic, indicating 'generally favorable reviews'.

    In a positive review for Destructoid, Jim Sterling praised the game's accessibility, noting how easy the GPS and map features were to use, as well as the option to stream European internet radio, and the multitude of control options available. He also praised the graphics, stating that "from the shape of the traffic lights to the atmosphere of the backdrops, there's a sense of individuality to each new territory you uncover, and the trucks themselves are lovingly recreated with an intricate level of detail", although he did criticise the AI of the other vehicles on the road. In a similarly favourable review, Tim Stone of PC Gamer called it "unexpectedly engrossing", praising the size of the map and the variation of the roads and scenery available. He did however have reservations about the accuracy of the surroundings, commenting "no one seems to have told SCS’s countryside crafters that rural Britain features long green things called hedges. Cities are often depicted with the shortest of visual shorthand – a few warehouses, the odd landmark if you’re lucky."

    i hope scs can do better to score more by ets3...with new roads and stuff...

  70. are we going to get RV9 in Norway? Rv9 goes from Kristiansand in the south and meet E134 at Haukeligrend. I want to drive from Kristiansand, over the "mountain" to Bergen f.ex. vs to take the highway..

  71. What the F is wrong with you people ? ETS 3 ?! You really don't remember or did not see the interview video made by Squirell with Pavel ? There will not be ETS 3 !!! There is no plan in doing ETS 3 at the moment or in the following years. There will be a constant development and improvement of ETS 2 and there is ATS coming soon. There is plenty to do and expand in ETS 2 and there will be a lot to expand in ATS.
    These are the two games SCS is focusing on and it will be so for the rest of the following years. You like it, just shut up, be patient and support SCS with any future project. You don't like it, uninstall the game and go play something else. It is that easy !!! Just like watching TV...the remote is in your hand, so if you don't like watching a channel, change it !!!
