Steering Wheel Roll-Out Event Conclusion

A couple of weeks ago we brought to you a rather special event to celebrate the release of Thrustmaster’s new T248 Steering Wheel. In addition to receiving your reward for completing the World of Trucks personal goal, there were numerous ways that you could enter to win the real T248! It is now time to conclude the event and present to you the winners.

The statistics of this short event are really cool. Over 100,000 players have participated in the event, with over 380,000 combined jobs completed and over 2,000,000 km (1,242,742 miles) combined distance driven. That is just massive, especially considering the time period in which this event was active. We’d like to thank each and every single one of you for taking part!

Let us mention here that we are delighted that we have had the opportunity to join forces with Thrustmaster in the celebration of their new product. Using a World of Trucks event to bring some extra entertainment to our community while also helping our partners with promotion was something fresh and we hope that you have enjoyed this idea.

In total, we had 11 special limited edition T248 Steering Wheels to give away to our #BestCommunityEver, and we started by picking a winner for the first one during our stream with game designer Gavin. Once again, congratulations to the winner!

We have absolutely loved seeing all the social media posts under the #T248RollOut hashtag (Twitter, Instagram), and it was really difficult to pick just two winning screenshots out of all valid entries. After long consideration, due to their amazing creativity, we are happy to announce these two winning screenshots! We will be in touch with you both soon to ask you for your shipping details as you’ve just won yourselves a new, very exclusive, ATS/ETS2 limited edition T248 Steering Wheel. Congratulations!

Next, we would also like to reveal the lucky winners that have been randomly picked from the list of World of Trucks’ account names of the players who have participated in the event and completed their personal goals. The list was provided to us by our World of Trucks team and we have randomly selected 5 lucky winners who will all be contacted soon, since they too will receive their own special ATS/ETS2 limited edition T248 Steering Wheel - just as was promised. Congratulations and well done on completing the event goal!

And finally, it’s also time to wrap up the Gleam.io part of the giveaway, which was the fourth way how players and members of the community could test their luck to win one of the special steering wheels. There were more than 60,000 entries that were made by more than 5,300 participants. In the end, we have used the Gleam.io random winner picker feature to select the last 3 winners of the ATS/ETS2 limited edition T248 Steering Wheel.

We urge all the winners to check their email/social media inboxes and reply to our message with the shipping details. If you do not get back to us, you might lose the right to claim the prize!

We are grateful to our #BestCommunityEver for joining the event. The number of participants was truly impressive! Please let us know if you have enjoyed such a small, extra-ish event in which you were able to get some in-game rewards as well as having the chance to enter a huge giveaway in which you could test your luck to get your hands on a cool reward too. Would you like to see similar events in the future?

Speaking of the future, we have another World of Trucks event already in preparation for you to participate in, coming very soon. Keep an eye on our blog and social media and you will soon find out more!

Steering Wheel Roll-Out Event

Help us celebrate the release of Thrustmaster’s new Steering Wheel, the T248, by taking part in our latest World Of Trucks event – Steering Wheel Roll-Out! For over 30 years Thrustmaster has been creating new designs to satisfy and entertain all types of gamers and we’re offering for you to join us in celebrating by rolling out this new hardware, as cargo, within Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator.

This will be your own personal journey and it will come with some nice perks along the way, including a World of Trucks Achievement and a unique cabin item, for taking part and delivering the T248 Steering Wheels cargo using our special event trailer. All you have to do is make sure your T248 Steering Wheels cargo delivery is over 248km / 154 miles.

During the #T248RollOut, players will also have the chance to enter up to 4 different ways and test their luck to win 1 of 11 very special T248s that have been specifically crafted to include either our ATS or our ETS2 logo!

Rules

Using External Contracts with a World of Trucks-connected profile in Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator, or both, your Personal goal is to complete at least 5 deliveries of T248 Steering Wheels cargo.

All jobs for the event need to be at least 248 km / 154 miles in length, or more.

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

Rewards:

Personal goal: Players that complete 5 or more deliveries of the T248 Steering Wheels cargo will gain a personal World of Trucks Achievement, a T248 Pedals dashboard toy as a Steam inventory item for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator.

Don't forget, our previous Thrustmaster promotion is still running, which means that anyone who logs in to their World of Trucks account will automatically receive a matching free gift - the Thrustmaster T248 Mini Wheel cabin accessory item. Together they are the perfect pair!

The event will be concluded on Sunday the 7th of November at 23:59 UTC.

But this cool event is not all that there is, our dear #BestCommunityEver! During the #T248RollOut, players will also have 4 unique ways to win 1 of 11 very special T248s that have been kindly provided by our friends over at Thrustmaster.

However, these are not your normal T248s! We are talking about a very exclusive and limited edition T248 steering wheel & pedal set, all of them boast a distinctive red & black colour theme and proudly carry either our ATS or ETS2 logo on the base! Be aware that you won't be able to buy these anywhere else. Only those among the few winners will ever be able to get their hands on one!

Now that we have your attention, let's talk about how you can actually win one, shall we? We will be giving away 11 of these (6 carrying ETS2 and 5 ATS logos) in total. However, this time we have designed multiple ways you can participate and try your luck.

1) Steering Wheel Roll-Out Event - Live Stream Giveaway

You know us, when there is a new event, there's also a live stream. This time it won't be any different, so we look forward to seeing you join our live stream featuring Gavin, our Game Designer who'll be hauling some of these steering wheels, either in ETS2 or ATS on Twitch and YouTube.

The stream will take place on Wednesday, October 27, from 18:00 CEST. During the stream, we will host a giveaway in which you'll have a chance to try your luck to win one of the limited edition T248s mentioned above. We can't wait to go live with you all once again!

2) #T248RollOut Social Media - Giveaway

Another thing we normally do is host a supporting campaign, whenever we release any new content. This time, we call upon our #BestCommunityEver to hop in their trucks, either in ATS or ETS2, to participate in the event, get their T248 Pedals personal reward item, and then decorate their truck cabin with it alongside the Thrustmaster T248 Mini Wheel cabin item that you can get from our previous, and still running Thrustmaster promotion! Then, take a screenshot at one of your favourite locations that includes both the T248 steering wheel and T248 pedals cabin items, and post it over on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook. The post will need to tag the social media profiles of both SCS and Thrustmaster, and include the #T248RollOut hashtag.

 

At the end of the event, when we'll be wrapping it up, we will pick 2 posts internally that include screenshots that stole our hearts the most, and reward each of them with one of these exclusive Thrustmaster T248 steering wheels! 

3) Personal Goal Finishers - Random Lottery Giveaway

This is a new way to approach our giveaways, but we feel it will bring some extra love to all those who took their time to finish their personal goals in this event! This will be done by our internal World of Trucks team, who will export a list of WoTr account names who have accomplished their personal goals. Then we'll randomly pick 5 lucky winners from it! These winners will be contacted later, with each winner receiving 1 of the limited edition Thrustmaster T248 steering wheels!

4) Gleam.io - Giveaway

Last but not least, we want to offer a chance for a winner from an even broader audience, so that as many people as possible can try their luck. So, this one is for those who prefer a social media challenge.

 

Gleam.io is a great service through which we have created a fully automatic application form, allowing anyone to join and have the chance to be among the lucky winners. Once we'll be concluding the Steering Wheel Roll-Out event, we will randomly pick 3 people who'll each become the lucky new owner of one of these limited edition steering wheels.

The rest is up to you! All you need to do now is pick a way you want to enter this giveaway competition, and how high you want to make the chances for yourself. The more steps you do in the form, the more chances you get. It's easy and it can all be done in the form embedded below. In order to be able to contact the winners, we will need to ask for your email before letting you enter the form. We promise that all email addresses gathered will be deleted right after the winners are picked.

 

Steering Wheel Roll-Out Event Giveaway

Now it's up to you, to choose one (or more ;-) ) of the ways listed above and try your luck! We are looking forward to seeing more of your photos as you roll-out these latest T248 Steering Wheels from Thrustmaster! Share them with us using the hashtag #T248RollOut on our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram profiles and we will share our favourite ones (we may even feature some of them in a future blog post!).

Thrustmaster® T248 Giveaway!

We are excited to partner up with Thrustmaster to join the launch of their all-new T248 steering wheel! Being invited as a launch partner is a confirmation of the high status of our truck sim games in the driving simulation genre. In practice, this means that our programmers have had a chance to get their hands on pre-production units before they hit the market, to make sure that our games will support the wheel's new features at launch.

For active members of our #BestCommunityEver, this partnership brings a chance to benefit, too. As a part of a cross-promotion plan, we are to receive a bunch of shiny new steering wheels to give away!

As we are talking cross-promotion, both companies are trying to help each other's products gain more visibility. While Thrustmaster is going to showcase American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2 to their audience, we agreed to try to create a little buzz on our social media too.

Starting today, anyone who logs in to their World of Trucks account will automatically receive a free gift - the Thrustmaster T248 Mini Wheel cabin accessory item. 

Decorate your truck cabin with it and take an interior screenshot at a location in #ETS2 or #ATS you like. Then just share your images on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook under the #T248 hashtag along with tagging our and Thrustmaster social media profiles!

• Twitter: @TMThrustmaster
• Facebook: @ThrustmasterOfficial
• Instagram: @TMThrustmaster
• Twitch: @TMThrustmaster
• Youtube: @Thrustmasterofficial

Later in September, we'll randomly pick 5 lucky winners who'll get one of these new steering wheels when they're publicly available!

We are proud to be joining forces with Thrustmaster to help them bring this new wheel to the market, and that our games have been recognized as launch titles among other notable driving games.

You watch a recording of the stream we broadcasted on our Twitch & YouTube channels, in which we hosted a special Wyoming & Thrustmaster T248 Live Gameplay Stream.

And if you're a fan of Thrustmaster, then you might also want to keep an eye on our communication channels. We are already planning more fun and more content for our #BestCommunityEver together with Thrustmaster coming later this year!
