Fun:
It amazes me that those who have given this game 1, 2 and 3 stars are Amazon Vine Programme reviewers, who by definition, are supposed to be writing accurate and insightful reviews. Just because they have problems installing the DVD disc is hardly the fault of the software developers, especially, as thousands of us have done it successfully without any problems. The comments that the game was poorly executed and the graphics were hardly groundbreaking had me thinking if we'd all played the same simulator, to see the thick fog, freight trains running and leaves floating down from the trees had me worried that I'd not found the other truck driving simulators that also offer these extras as standard. Pointless, well, that depends on you and what you want out of this game, it's strategic, in building up your career and management of your own trucking empire, it can also be relaxing and just offer the fun truck drivers amongst you a quick wizz around the autobahns in your lorry going from town to town and divert into the other areas in between, such as the quarry. There is a lot of eye candy, the scenery is quite stunning everywhere, especially in the cities, with animated tugboats and containerships at Hamburg Port to operational combine harvesters in the farming communities along the way. Each town has it's own dominating point of interest, Cologne Cathedral, for example, and even though there are physical no-go trucking areas (endemic in other SCS trucking simulator games) you cannot drive right up to these buildings, however, you can still get a good look at them from the various vantage points as you drive around. 5 stars, from me, for yet another winner from SCS Software, who also devised the 18 Wheels of Steel and Eurotruck Simulators, and if you've played the latter, then it'll be quick to pick up the driving controls, etc, which are configured the same on this game. The tractor units are superbly created with very quiet enginesounds and a reversing bleeper now the new extra features.
After you have installed the game disc the fps should be over 30 in the cities and over 70 on the autobahns if you have a decent PC, don't ever rely on the minimum specs from game designers, if you haven't got the right equipment to do the job, then upgrade to obtain the full effects.
Happy driving.

I ordered this for my father who spent most of his working life driving HGVs around the UK and Europe He's also a huge fan of train, boat and flight sims. The install was simple enough. The game itself takes a while to get the sensitivity of the controls just right but its a typical sim in terms of a variety of keystrokes, cameras etc at your disposal. The graphics for the game are fairly impressive and very smooth compared to some other simulators. My Dad spent has spent a good few hours on this and despite the fact that he jokingly commented "it's harder than the real thing!", he did enjoy it and I can see him buying some of the others now.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
Fun:
Good truck driving game, if thats what floats your cab. Graphics are good but overall the game has a niche market which is only just redeemed by the fact that other countries are available, uk included.

Having played the original version (Euro Truck Simualtor) I think that I can gain a good insight into this game. The first think you will notice is how similar the two games are! Read more
