This gives you a good sense of grounding, because you regularly find yourself looking around the cab to get a better look at mirrors and other feedback.Whether you chose to control the action with a pad, keyboard, or wheel, American Truck Simulator walks you through a wizard to ensure you are prepared before heading out. This is in contrast to sand scrubbed Bakersfield, where you have time contemplate the wide open spaces around you.Though the traffic looks less impressive, the trucks – particularly their interiors – are well modeled. Driving around the day-glow streets of Las Vegas, neon surrounds you and the streets are filled.
The world looks incredible, with the game managing to make driving around its natural environments, suburban sprawl, and inner cities all look and feel distinctly different. Plus there is sure to be a wealth of community mods. Unfortunately, this does prevent you embarking on some more iconic journeys.It is still early days though and SCS Software is intending to release more States as downloadable content - which goes some way to explaining American Truck Simulator's budget price. Of course, these two States represent a considerable landmass and can take hours to cross from side-to-side - even in the game’s entertainingly shrunk down world. So, even though the game’s accomplished physics and driving model remain unchanged, the idea of pulling cargo the full length of Route 66 feels inexplicably different.Or at least it would, because currently American Truck Simulator only provides you two of the USA’s fifty States: California and Nevada. There is a romance to touring from coast-to-coast of the US listening to country music on your streamed internet radio. The game is basically unchanged: start as a freelance driver, earn cash, buy your own truck, and build your own delivery company.But here, perhaps more than any other franchise, a change of setting is enough. You would be hard pressed to find differences between American Truck Simulator and its European predecessor.
That is exactly what SCS Software is here to deliver, with its latest title American Truck Simulator. But, while cruising the autobahns and motorways of Europe has its appeal, to feel like a real trucker you have to hit the USA. Even though Euro Truck Simulator 2 is fantastically put together, its success still seems to surprise gamers who haven’t experienced the joy of cruising its open highways.
