Nice guys, anyway have you tried the Multiplayer mode?
I'd like to share something new about this game. ETS2 now has MP mode. Honestly the SP mode is quite nice with a lot of features. But the MP is more nicer and fun to play.
Here some images in MP mode.
Random gathering, taking some photos, or maybe a convoy by matching it's colour, etc.
The busiest time or rush hour time in MP mode. I love this moment, seeing people come and go with their own business, maybe its a good choice to make a time lapse video about it.
This situation is actually crowded like in the loading dock or service station or even queuing in the gas station.
And now, comes the lovely traffic jam!
Some cases caused by overloaded trucks or maybe an accident. This is the most situation that people looking for in MP mode. Most of them just sitting there and enjoy the traffic jam like IRL. Seeing people overtaking or maybe playing with the horn or maybe trolling somebody, lol.
This is also the most lowest FPS situation, even with the highest spec can't reach more than 10 FPS.
Many people also complaining about the FPS too, so frustrated, lol.
And the last one, the biggest event ever held!
The 2014 ETS2MP Truck Fest in London City.
There is a lot of colorful trucks, beautiful.
This MP mode is pure 100% scripted and made based from the ETS2 base, no mods were used and no mods can't be used in MP mode. Some features in MP mode has the sync game time, sync traffic lights, sync economy base, and speed limit.
The sync weather and API map still under development and more will coming on the next patch.
This is the best choice I think that some people had brilliant idea to make it go Online (MP mode). Because this game has no end, no game over, you can push or raise your company to the highest level over the limit. You can do everything you want in SP mode with cheat or mods or maybe developing maps or something until you get bored.
If it does, the MP mode is the best choice to enjoy the game once again and takes all way from what you get in SP mode. In the road, you not seeing or passing AI anymore. You will see and meet people from all over the world. Honking or dimming while other drivers pass you on the road. Do some nice sharing in chats, do some great trip with your friends (convoy), enjoying the traffic jam, having the real accident on the road, or maybe dealing with some idiot drivers.
So, if you want play MP mode first you have buy the Original ETS2 game. Because this mode must verified by the Steam account and the regulations is quite strict. The cost of this game is quite enough, instead a lot of add-ons for sale. But it really worth it for the quality and it's features.
Here is some videos of ETS2 MP.
