#XmasWiseGiving + #CruisingColorado Conclusion

The holiday season is a time of rest for most people, but for the logistics industry, it is the busiest time of the year! Over the past couple of months, drivers from across the world have united to deliver gifts wisely on both sides of the Atlantic in our Christmas Wise Giving Event.  

Thousands of deliveries needed to be made for cities across both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator and our #BestCommunityEver delivered! We thank you for all the hard work and time each of you put in to help unlock rewards for all drivers to enjoy in-game.

In less than 24 hours, drivers have already completed their personal goals of completing 15 deliveries across Europe/USA and 75 of the 350 hearts and gifts needed to receive the first tier of the community rewards. By the end of the first day of the event, Osnabruck became the first city to max out on both given and received gift deliveries and you, the community, reached the first tier! 

With that kind of momentum, it was no wonder that the final tier of the community goal was achieved on the 27th of December, just 10 days after the beginning of the event! The rate of deliveries completed even had Santa in the North Pole shocked! 

We want to thank every single driver who contributed to the event, and to those who really went the extra mile. It really brings a huge smile to the faces of the SCS team to see how much you enjoyed these events, and how you managed to complete them quicker every year, despite the many deliveries we challenge you with. We hope you enjoy the unique Christmas accessories and paint jobs that you have so rightfully earned and use them as a reminder of this year's event. 


However, the #XmasWiseGiving event wasn't the only event you could take part in during the festive period. For the first time ever, we had 2 consecutive World of Trucks events running alongside each other! 

On November 12th, with the release of Colorado for American Truck Simulator, we began the #CruisingColorado event. We set a goal for truckers to drive 60,000,000 combined miles whilst delivering to or from any of the 13 cities in the state of Colorado. With Colorado themed rewards to be earned, it only took our community 7 days to reach the goal of 60 million miles, incredible! 

This really does go to show the strength and power of our community when we work together. We thank you for your support and we look forward to sharing more development news with you in the future.

Christmas Wise Giving Update

Happy New Year! We hope you found time to enjoy the festive period and time to relax and settle down with a cup of your favorite hot drink. However, we know that many of you continued to work hard over the Christmas period as you took part in our #XmasWiseGiving World of Trucks event! 

With brightly-decorated Christmas gift trailers and festively-painted trucks, drivers from across the world came together to help deliver gifts across the Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator with a goal to achieve, and on the 27th of December you, our #BestCommunityEver, completed the community goal! 

Thanks to all your deliveries and hard work, you have unlocked the final tier of the community goals! If you have completed your personal goals, you will be able to claim your rewards under the Events tab on the My Page section of WorldofTrucks.com. 

If you still have not found the time to complete all your deliveries or have yet to start, don't panic! You will have until 23:59 UTC on the 17th of January 2021 to complete the event with the special gift trailers, using the World of Trucks external contracts and earning festive rewards for your truck exterior and cabin. If you have only just found out about our event, you can find more information about how to take part here. 

Another event that has been running since early November is the #CruisingColorado event, in which you can earn free rewards for delivering to and from cities in our latest expansion for American Truck Simulator. Even though the community goal was reached within a week, we wanted to make sure that drivers could complete at their own pace. This event will also end on the 17th of January 2021 at 23:59 UTC, you can read the rules and find out how you can participate in this event here.

We look forward to bringing you lots of exciting content for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator in this new year and we look forward to sharing development news in the near future.

#CruisingColorado Event Update

It took our #BestCommunityEver only 7 days to drive 60,000,000 miles in the currently ongoing #CruisingColorado World of Trucks event to pass the community goal. We are left speechless once again. Actually, you guys and gals have reached it so quickly we might even ask you to show us your cabin logbooks to check if you have had your regular driving breaks?! 

Don't worry, we're just joking here. But it's always cool and motivating to see how fast and easily our fanbase can smash the "quests" we set for them. And how many of you are always ready to immediately join the events we create for you. We also love seeing all your tweets and posts under the #CruisingColorado hashtag over at any social media challenge we monitor. Want some number? Well, so far there have been posted more than 1100 tweets on Twitter and 280 posts on Instagram! 

According to the reactions and feedback upon the rewards which can be claimed in this event, for both personal and community goals, we guess you really like the new paint job and hanging cabin accessory. Don't forget to share how it fits your favorite truck! 


Even though we tried to explain it in our previous blog posts and communication over at our social media channels, we still have received some questions about the date till when this event is going to be kept active, or requests to not end this event even while the community goal is already reached. So please let us say it again here - you do not need to worry, because we will keep the event running until well after Christmas, so there will be plenty of time to relax and enjoy the ride while earning your rewards.

#CruisingColorado Event Announcement

With the Colorado DLC releasing tomorrow, November 12th, we'd like to celebrate by inviting you all to take part in our latest World of Trucks event - Cruising Colorado! We know many of you are as excited as we are to visit this beautiful Rocky Mountain state with its breathtaking views and historic places, and we are delighted to announce that this event will reward drivers who contribute to Colorado's local economy and industries.

We are asking our #BestCommunityEver to achieve the community goal of driving 60,000,000 miles (96,560,640 km) while delivering cargoes to or from any city in Colorado. It doesn't matter what you haul, gold mining supplies, wind turbine parts, lumber, food, beverages, it all counts, every last delivery!

And, of course, you can use your own trailer during all of this in the external market!

Our Colorado DLC offers 13 fantastic and unique cities that we really want you to visit. So, we're offering a special reward for completing your personal goal, which will require you to deliver a job to or from each of them. All jobs for the event need to be 100 miles each (161 km) or more, so be sure to read the rules.

We will keep the event running until well after Christmas, so there will be plenty of time to relax and enjoy the ride while earning your rewards.

As you are #CruisingColorado and adding up the job miles, we guarantee there will be new experiences for you like never before. Not to mention, we have included many new viewpoints, offering handcrafted cinematic views, highlighting the attractions of that area. 

  • Visit the Four Corners Monument, the only point in the United States shared by four states.
  • Take a drive through Wolf Creek Pass, located deep in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado.
  • Drive over Red Cliff Bridge, a steel arch bridge that crosses over a beautiful valley.
  • Truck along the I-70, a major east-west Interstate Highway that passes through Glenwood Canyon.
  • Take a job from Denver International Airport, the 5th busiest airport in the U.S. and home of famous Blucifer.


Colorado, Nil sine numine (Nothing without providence), is our latest addition to American Truck Simulator. Know that as you wind down your cab window and settle in for the long haul, we'll be right there, cruising with you in spirit.  We can't wait to hear your thoughts about this incredibly beautiful, mountainous, triumphant, epic, and historic state.


Rules 

Using External Contracts or the External Market, with a World of Trucks-connected profile in American Truck Simulator, the community goal is to drive 60,000,000 miles (96,560,640 km) while delivering cargoes to or from any city in Colorado.

The cities are: Fort Collins, Sterling, Rangely, Steamboat Springs, Denver, Burlington, Colorado Springs, Grand Junction, Pueblo, Lamar, Montrose, Alamosa, Durango

When a player completes delivery to or from each of the 13 Colorado cities, it will achieve their personal goal. 

All jobs for the event need to be at least 100 miles each (161 km), or more. 

You can check if your recent deliveries met these conditions using your Log Book in your World of Trucks profile.

Rewards:
