But I like, a few MINOR things need sorting out but that's just me being VERY picky as the game is pretty much perfect. Bravo.… Expand

    I'll start with my only two bad points, the creators of this game often repeat scenery (to fill out the game) and that includes cities. They are all identical and consist of an eight-shaped design with maybe two or three little roads spiking off in random directions. They counteract this issue by filling the scenery with city specific items, for example. going into London lets you see theI'll start with my only two bad points, the creators of this game often repeat scenery (to fill out the game) and that includes cities. They are all identical and consist of an eight-shaped design with maybe two or three little roads spiking off in random directions. They counteract this issue by filling the scenery with city specific items, for example. going into London lets you see the Gherkin and various other famous towers and statues. I would have liked driving around a city with buildings towering over the congested city streets. The other bad point is, like Nerd³ said, there are pathetic offences you have to keep paying if you leave your lights on or drive on the wrong side of the road. Ok, they are the only two bad points I have on this game, it needs big cities and less offences. Gameplay wise, it's fantastic. i play with a keyboard and mouse and it's fine to play. The rain is magical and increases your breaking distance, especially with a heavy load. I suppose you can check out other reviews for various good points, but I just wanted to tell you the worst of it in case they didn't. Great game, £15, you'll definitely get your money's worth out of it.… Expand

It's not entirely realistic there aren't really any visual signs of damage when you crash (although you are charged for repair), the sounds of the engine and particular the ratio could have been better, and one thing that was a bit disappointing was that some of the route I know pretty well and they don't really resemble them at all. Timescales are also a little bit disappointing, you can make a pretty lengthy journey in a relatively short time, and whilst I doubt anyone would want to sit behind a wheel of a cab for 8 hour straight on a PC game, it would have been nice to have the option available to complete the experience. Other notable downsides are the lack of traffic. It builds up quite well at some junctions but in the cities, which are extremely small and unrealistic, you don't really see much more traffic than on the motorways/freeways. All that being said, the game is enjoyable, with many decent elements. The graphics aren't overly amazing but do a reasonable job at making you feel 'on the road'. The radio is a nice touch (you can use your own music files or tune in to a genuine internet radio by editing the files) however it doesn't appear that you can just flick it on and off when you want.. you have to select one of your songs on a menu, taking you away from the game, and then press play. I couldn't see any shuffle or repeat options, so when it came to uploading an album of the same artist, you got nothing but them. There are some good elements of realism though... speed cameras, traffic lights and a limited weather cycle (only seen sun, cloud and rain so far). I've played on both keyboard and controller and both work fine after configuration. The game is currently on Steam at £24.99 and while I am enjoying playing the demo, I'm not about to part with my money. It's a decent enough title, but it lacks any resemblance to what I would expect from a 2013 game at £25. Half the price at this quality and I would probably consider buying. I'm still waiting for someone to take on the challenge and create a lifelike map of the UK/Europe/USA to drive around. Add in some Police patrols, boy racers and little old granny's and I'll part with my hard earned money. In summary, if you are looking for a driving experience that verges on the edge of reality rather than arcade, then this is definitely worth a look, however you will need to be able to look past the missing elements that could have made this a really decent simulator.

    Thanks for reading.     … Expand

    I'm not a fan of trucks, I decided to download the demo of this game by chance, not knowing that hours later I would be buying one of the most great games I've ever played. Physics is very good, the scenery is beautiful, and the thousands contents of the game deserve note 10/10. I rate 9 because you can not run the game on high graphics.

    I discovered this game through Steam, and from playing SCANIA Truck Driving Simulator which I purchased on sale on Origin.

    I have never played Euro Truck Simulator (1), But I liked that unlike Scania, I drove actual missions and traveled across parts of Europe.

    It is geared more towards people who play with a steering wheel control and those who like driving Big Rig trucks or Lorries.

    On my PC I managed quite well, I only played the Demo. I have not yet had time to play the full version as I am studying for a few exams. But I did see cars, sometimes so many it was a pain to pull out or cross a major intersection waiting for a big enough opening. Some cars will stop, others will drive right through you as you try to pull out. Some will brake early and on yellow lights, causing you to hit them.

    I received a fine for headlights, but think it would be nice to see police on the road and on the side of the roads (speed traps). With the new features and camera views of Google Maps, I cannot see improvements in a future release. Games like GTA, Mafia and The Getaway showed how detailed games can be when it comes to re-creating cities and roads.

    Yes, you are mostly driving on highways, and there is rarely and views except trees, farms, and more trees... it would be nice to explore Europe and see realistic scenery and roads.

    Overall a great game, but I would probably wait for it to go on sale, as there are a few minor issues that kept me from buying at full retail price.

    One of which is tunnel vision when playing on a single monitor (possibly a multi-monitor setup takes care of this issue). Would be nice if I had the ability to temporarily turn my head and it auto centered my head to my previous view. People? Can't remember if I saw people or not... it would be a nice touch and make the downtown areas more interesting.
    With a few minor tweaks and possibly additions added with mods/upgrades. I think this game can be a must have.

    I would recommend this game to die hard trucking fans, and those who are just curious as too how hard it is to drive and park a Big Rig Truck.

    Yes, the physics are not realistic enough to be a great simulator, it is entertaining enough to give those curious a taste of the trucking life.

    I don't think there were any major technical flaws, so I think a good expansion and some updates/patches can fix any minor issues.

    My rating scale is basically Good, OK, Bad, when it comes to games. But this game is somewhere between Good and OK, so I give it an 8. Which is in line with the professionals review.    … Expand

    Compared to other simulators that have been released in the past, this one is pretty good. The sound is good, the graphics are nice (aside from the anti-aliasing), and the game-play is fun for the most part.

    The main problem with this game is repetition. Obviously there's only so much you can do with a truck simulator, but there aren't any random events aside from weather changes that occur in-game. They should have added random accidents, road obstructions, route changes, and competition with other freight companies. I do enjoy the challenge of backing and docking the trailer when you reach your destination; doing so gives you plenty of extra experience and makes it somewhat challenging until you get the hang of it. Just remember your trailer will go right if you turn left and vice versa. And you need to know when to steer your wheels in order to get the trailer where you want it just like real life.

    The scenery is nice but all the cities feel the same. They did pay attention to which side of the road people drive on in particular countries you enter which is nice.

    The NPC AI is awful. Cars will stop for no reason and block the road for a while. There's an option to turn pedestrians off/on but you seldom see any walking around the cities.

    Customizing the trucks can be fun but it's mainly cosmetic things. You can swap chassis, motors, transmissions, and wheels/tires but that's about it. You can, however, adjust the braking, throttle, and steering response, etc. in the game options which is nice.

    If you enjoy trucking simulators then this game is definitely worth purchasing, but don't expect it to be something extremely great. I see it as a way to kill time while I'm relaxing at home.    … Expand

It's a pretty good game, fairly addictive though the steering wheel would still help a lot. The graphics are really nice, the mp3 player and internet radio is cool and hauling stuff around Europe is great. The only drawbacks are the game is quite limited to what you can and cannot do. Yes, you can own a garage and have people work for you, but it's essentially go from point A to point B. You can road hog, clip stop signs with your trailer and often times hit vehicles with no penalty, yet other times the cpu drivers are so bad, they plow right into you! That being said; I think the game is quite entertaining and I really hope this development team adds more content as it could be a great game with additions. On a side note and something that a few complained about being a lack of sounds, skins, etc. There are some fantastic mods out there that change the game completely if one would just do an internet search.… Expand

The world is HUGE but invisible walls make it seem linear, but it is fun to build up your company, the early game gets annoying because your only getting income through your own jobs and they are all pretty much the same... but the gameplay overall is pretty good. 6/10

    VISUALS:

    This game, looks decent, it's deep and engaging but in terms of the graphics, its ok...
    the graphics are pretty detailed at times but the cities don't look nice at all, the rain looks good, but when you travel across the sea with ferries you won't even be able to tell if you did it because there is no animation, but the graphics are decent. 7/10

    CONTROLS:

    The controls are very impressive, turning feels good, accelerating feels realistic, the only problem is that the trucks don't go fast enough, sure it is a simulator but with the size of the world it can get annoying. 8/10

    SOUNDTRACK:

    I can't review this games soundtrack because it doesn't have any, instead it let's you choose the soundtrack so I can't score this. N/A

    VARIETY:

    This is where the game shines. It allows so much variety in the ways you want to play, want to just explore the world and let your employees do the work for you? You can do that. Do you want to get as much cash as possible and always be working every second? Do that too. 8/10

    CONTENT:

    This game will never run out of content. I challenge anyone to have explored the entire game world, it will take at least 12 hours to do that, plus all the jobs and things you can do, overwhelming? No. Enough to keep you playing for a long time? Yes. 7.5/10

    OVERALL:

    Overall, this game is good, but will not standout from other driving games like Need For Speed or Driver: San Fransisco, The game is different, as it is a simulator, but it is still not as impressive. Of course, for simulation standards, this will be one of the best games you will find in this genre, but if you are not into simulators, you should still try it out, because it can be really fun at times. 7.4/10!    … Expand

It's a solid simulator with tons of potential. They did a great job making it more like a game than the typical sim. Yes, you get to drive and customize your ride (eventually), but it also lets you start up your own business, once you've earned enough money to do so. You can even hire drivers to work for you, buy new trucks, take on contracts, raise your skills or those of your drivers to increase what kinds of load you can haul and more. I also love the fact that you can tune into various net radios stations as you drive. There are a few things I think could be improved, such as the landscape being a bit repetitious as times, and the occasionally long drive that can get boring, after a while. The controls are a bit difficult to get used to on a keyboard, as there are many commands. The developers really thought through things that might make it challenging, from backing your truck into a spot, to getting fined for dings and dents, various traffic violations and more. It's an accessible game to various ages.

    NOTE: The person/people saying you can't look around while driving are incorrect. You can use your mouse to look around while you drive. It's difficult to stay on the road, but that also makes the game more realistic. It is a sim, after all.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Thanks to the Volvo Trucks - The Epic Split feat. Van Damme I only buy and drive Volvo trucks in Euro Truck Simulator 2. Things I like about ETS 2 is a wide selection of trucks, rainy weather, no speed limit that you can change in options and the whole game itself. I also like the penalties about over-speeding, car crashes and red signal offenses.

    The disadvantages, in my honest opinion, is medium graphics of the game that is inconsistent in nowadays. I'd like to see more AA options, more realistic world around a truck and better graphics optimization for PC. I must mention that the game is not optimized well, because I have a good rig, I have maximized all graphics settings but I have medium FPS, I can't tell accurately but sometimes it's annoying low.    … Expand

    A good sim. I think there is room for improvement. I would see truck parts from each company and some that are available to all, instead of having all parts available for all trucks. Makes it useless to have different companies.

    It's too evident which company to choose from since they have the best truck right off the bat. Why should we go for another company when there is this one?    A good sim.

Makes it useless to have different companies.

    It's too evident which company to choose from since they have the best truck right off the bat. Why should we go for another company when there is this one?

    Also, each truck dealer shows the same truck many times, they're not different, they just got different upgrades. Each major truck dealer should have at least three REALLY different trucks, with one additional fully upgraded version of each. I don't see the point of buying a half upgraded truck. I either buy a cheap one with no upgrades or a fully upgraded one.

    Boy, was I disappointed when I saw that all the trucks each dealer was selling was just replicas of the first but with more upgrades and a different paini job. this sucks

    Anothing thing that sucks is that there are too many dumdum dlcs. I mean, who would waste money for paintjobs dlcs? Come on, are these guys beggars or something? Just put every darn paint job into one dlc, sell it 5$ and be done with it.

    The designers wastes too much time with stupid eyecandy stuff and not enough on expanding for real this game. There are only a very few true expansions, 2 or 3 I think, and the game was released in 2013!

    The AI is dumb, and for a sim, that's a really bad thing. For example, I check left and right before going onto a road at a crossroad, no one. I drive forward and turn, then boom! an idiot rams me at 100 km/h++. Man! Wasn't he watching the road? Later in another job, I do something else but I still watch for incoming vehicles, none to be seen, then BOOM! another idiot rams me. Ok, maybe this happens once or twice a year irl in a country, some idiot was sleeping on his steering wheel and bang, or some moron was tweeting or texting and then bang! But not every day!

    The recent updates have increased the realism of the game, trucks don't stop so easily now... but why didn't the designer do this since day one? It show how little they know of trucks to start with, but also shows that they care about their sim by releasing patches.

    The sim is still enjoyable, but since this game looks so serious, maybe the physics engine and depth of the game should be propotionate to its looks. Because all these designers do is improve the look of the game and not the game itself. :/

    Anyway, I bought it for like 5$ and I think it's worth at least that... if they would stop releasing crappy paint job dlcs and include all of them in the base game, maybe I would a pay 6 or 7$. Once you are in the game (this year's version) you see that there is very little depth, very few truck parts that you have no idea what effect they have on your truck aside from the lights and engine which are obvious... even though I have upgrade my truck to the best engine from the lowest and saw little change, if non at all...    … Expand

    Playing Euro Truck Simulator you drive all around a stylized Europe, from country roads to highways, mostly pleasurably detailed and with the precision of signs and traffic laws you'd expect from a simulator.
    What I found a bit annoying were strange intersections (you will never find intersections that take a lane away), not being able to refill in towns (every real town has at least a gas station), lack of content for non-central Europe states (you cannot go to Sicily for example)
    On the other end I really liked the AI of other cars/vans/trucks, they mostly react like human drivers would to unforeseen events.

    EDIT: In recent free updates (following the release of the new "Scandinavia" expansion) the whole graphics got a huge rework and since most concerns of my previous review were about the "poor" graphic implementation, they are all gone. The game now looks fabulous with no impact on performance (actually if feels even better).
    The developers also solved a few issues so that the game is more realistic and even more a pleasure to be played.

    While before the "Scandinavia" expansion this game for me was a little more than 7/10 now it's definitely 9/10. Good job SCS Software.

    If you like the idea of casually driving down the highway, listening to your favorite music or talk radio stations after a long day of work, then this game is for you. There's just something about using turn signals, adjusting mirrors, and following the general rules of the road that screams relaxing to me, and this game does it all perfectly. Load up your own mp3s or stream from your favorite radio stations as you travel around actual European landscapes all from the comfort of your own living room.

Driving a truck around the major roads and cities of Europe??? Nah!! I'll pass thanks.

    But, thanks to a humble bundle.....I ended up receiving this sneaky little bugger of a game.

    There is a surprising, relaxed feel about this game while you are moving cargo from one place to another, even when you have to concentrate on keeping within speed limits or in lanes for shifting off of a junction.

    The DLC available to increase your working environment to Scandinavia and Eastern Europe are very welcome additions, with a further one expected to expand Western Europe more. But the modding community is in force here with additional cities being added to the existing maps to increase it all further are really great.

    The driving itself is really simple with a few extra keys available for lights and wipers when needed. There are additional keys for other elements that you can choose not to use if you want. You can also add real radio station streams to be played in game to give it a bit of an authentic feel too.

    There is a nice levelling system in place which expands your driving length per job or cargoes you can haul as you progress.

    The biggest issue I have had is with parking at my arrival points. Reversing in these trucks is very difficult unless you really concentrate but this can be time consuming. Thankfully there is an option to skip the parking with no loss of income. You just make extra for manual parking as opposed to losing it for the AI doing it for you.

    This is a game I can drop in and out of for short bursts which allows me to do a job or 2 locally, or I can got for a long haul, if the feeling takes me.

    But, I must warn...driving through Denmark is dull as hell.    … Expand

Physics is not even close to the real, i cant feel im driving heavy machine, its extremely easy to control it, there no traffic accidents, dumb drivers, weather and road covering doesnt influence on the stability of tires etc. Its just a game, where you simply drive a truck without any reasons to be worried. No any real challenge, what i actually dont like.
    Moreover, it becomes too casual when you hire around 5-8 workers. Your daily profit become extremely high. You dont need to pay your workers, you dont need to maintain your trucks, your garages etc.

    - Developers keeps updating their game ! Almost every third months we got a new update or map DLC, even by the fact that the game was released on 2013 ! And a very important point, they are listening to players feedback.

    To be honest I enjoy driving around in this game. It's kind of relaxing. I like to do a job after a long day of work and delivering the cargo never somehow gets boring. But the best thing is the devs: They still add more content to the game, even to the base game. Some of the big publishers can take an example of them! Definetly would recommend.

    Good, but not overwhelmingly good.

    I have played a lot of Euro Truck Simulator 2 recently, simply because it feels good to drive in an open world under realistic conditions, and the physics of truck driving feel very real (although I have never driven a truck myself). Delivering goods feels very satisfying, and in the first 30 hours of play there is a real progression. You can spend    Good, but not overwhelmingly good.

    I have played a lot of Euro Truck Simulator 2 recently, simply because it feels good to drive in an open world under realistic conditions, and the physics of truck driving feel very real (although I have never driven a truck myself). Delivering goods feels very satisfying, and in the first 30 hours of play there is a real progression. You can spend time to customise you truck in every detail. Exploring Europe and discovering each and every city is also very nice. Most of all, as opposed to all the racing games on the market, Euro Truck is a simulation that is not nervous: you play totally relax, listening to the radio and enjoying driving sensations at the same time.

    Now, I don't think this game deserves tons of rewards or overwhelmingly positive reviews across the board for various reasons. First and foremost, an important part of the game, that is, the growth of your own company, is very underwhelming. Basically, it sums up to buying "boxes" (garages), and inside these boxes, buy smaller boxes (trucks and employees). And once they are bought, their just produce money. I might sound sarcastic but it is as simple as this. You don't get to micromanage your employees, you don't interact with them in any way, nothing. It's literally putting money to receive more in the future, except that the things producing money have a face. Furthermore, at some point in the game (which I reached around 30 or 40 hours, from what I remember), your company will start making benefits even when you don't drive, which means that at this point the game pushes to just teleport from garage to garage to generate money. You read this right: at this point, you should ignore the core of the game (driving) to progress faster. A few hours later, you will own more garages, have more employees and shower in money, and at this moment you feel spoiled because you see your bank account with millions on it but don't know what to do with it. Just the Steam achievements are there to push you to continue.

    Some aspects of the gameplay feel very clunky. For example, you can get fined in ridiculous circumstances: if the speed limit decreases at some point, you'd better have good eyes to see the sign indicating it, because if you are 1 mph too fast 1 millimeter after the sign, you can get fined immediately. If you get tired but find not resting place on the highway, you can be caught in an infinite loop of fining, which is needlessly frustrating. If you are late on a delivery, some stupid music, that does not fit the game at all, starts to play, clumsily reminding you that you are late...

    Finally, I also disliked the rigidity of the mechanics of the game. The traffic really feels like a series of robots; collisions feel clunky; every penalty is a money penalty; damages on your truck always imply the same weird engine problem (engine turning off occasionally). In other words, the gameplay is very shallow, you don't get to discover much beyond the basics of the game.

    Yet, I enjoy playing this game because it is the only game I know which combines nice and original driving sensations and exploration in a relaxed atmosphere. Euro Truck Simulator 2 deserves a blue thumb, and despite all its problems I play it with pleasure. But looking at it objectively it could have benefited a lot from various improvements of the gameplay.    … Expand

Dejando eso aparte un un juego con un monton de camiones, dlc de la comunidad porque tiene una comunidad impresionante. Tener un volante obviamente mejora la experiencia pero no estas obligado a usar uno, con el teclado te bastara.
    He comentado muchos defectos pero tiene muy buenos gráficos, físicas y camiones con marcas oficiales entre otros.

    Conclusión juegazo, tienes que comprarlo si o si, sobre todo si te gusta este tipo de juegos.

    Its entretaining when you just want to chill out, with or without internet, lots of customizations for trucks and trailers, plus you run your company and hire "people", fire them, buy them trucks, etc
    There's a lot of dlc's tho, you need to buy some at least, for you to have a big map, new companies, jobs and cargo.
    The best thing, there's an official mod called TruckersMP which turns ETS2 into a multiplayer game, where you only encounter real people.    … Expand

    Графика:
    Графика в ETS2 довольно приятная, а самое главное - благодаря оптимизированному движку игры, она пойдет даже на слабых ПК. Живописные пейзажи, достопримечательности Европы - все это присутствует в игре, однако не все можно рассмотреть детально.

    Мультиплеер:
    К сожалению официального мультиплеера в игре нет, но это никак не помешало коммьюнити создать свою собственную сетевую игру. Все это возможно благодаря моду TruckersMP. Мультиплеер ETS2 отличный способ расслабиться за виртуальным рулем вместе с друзьями, но иногда стоит быть аккуратным и избегать безответственных водителей, которые не соблюдают правила дорожного движения. Да что там, они могут и без проблем въехать в вас)

    Карта:
    Карта в ETS2 действительно большая и вовсе не скучная! Если ваша цель - исследовать всю карту, вам на это понадобиться не меньше 20 часов. При этом, вы будете приятно удивлены разнообразием дорог и живописных пейзажей.

    *Недостатки*

    Баги и краши:
    В игре иногда возникают баги и вылеты которые оказывают неприятные ощущения и влияют на сам процесс игры. Застревание в текстурах, вылеты за карту, краши - ваши любимые друзья.

But the problem is they don't even care to add multiplayer for this game, so this makes me sad because it has a great potential for multiplayer. I hope they will add it and we don't need to use mods for it!
