Cities are more detailed and bigger than in ETS2
Long trailers
Challenging parking spots
2 states and 2 trucks in the base game
pay 20 euros for dlc if you want 1000 miles of new roads
no players in mp for ATS
They saw that ETS2 had so much success (and that’s only because the MP mod) and they tried to make this game a big cash grabbing machine. The base game has only 2 trucks and 2 states, in around 4-5 hours you can travel all the available roads. They keep releasing map DLC, 1 state for 20 euros and they did not add any new truck. Beside this, many of the prefabs are the same as in Scandinavia DLC for ETS2…
If you like Euro Truck Simulator 2, than you will definitely like American Truck Simulator. Improved and tweaked graphics, with some new gameplay. The quality and detail of the cities are extraordinary. Definitely recommended to you, the value and cost of the game Is reasonable and the content you’re given is reasonable and will be expanded and more will come. The rescale of the game making it similar to ETS2 has made the game even better.
American Truck Simulator is fun, to an extent. The world we were given at release for free contained two states, California and Nevada. The rest of the states from what we were told will be purchasable DLC and nobody knows for sure how many more states they will throw in. Of course, anyone who enjoys the game for more than a couple hours wishes they could commit themselves to a cross country delivery and just a leisurely drive across the US of A but unfortunately it just doesn’t look like that will happen. The game will probably get better over time but in its current state as I am writing this review I give it a 7/10.
The graphics are fun and not too exciting (you aren’t staring at Fallout 4 while driving)
The game mechanics are alright but no visible destruction to the trucks takes the fun away from the simple minded.
Would recommend for the price of $20. No more and no less.
