It’s more like an iteration than a fully-blown sequel.īut if SCS are as tireless and passionate with ongoing updates as they are with Euro Truck Simulator 2, ATS will only get better as it grows. The trucks-of which there are only two available at launch-don’t really feel that different to their European counterparts. Even different colours or visual flourishes on the interface would have been welcome, just to remind you that it is indeed a new work.Īs a result, if you were already burned out on ETS, the new setting might not be enough to reignite your passion. The interface and structure are pretty much identical, and it feels like they’ve picked up the old game and dropped it into the new location. I prefer the overcast, rain-soaked motorways of Europe myself, but the new setting is detailed and well-made.Īnyone who played Euro Truck Simulator 2 may find the game a little too familiar in places. Set on the sun-scorched west coast, the scenery is mostly dusty and desert-like, but they’ve captured the look and feel of both states nicely. Still, it’s a huge space, and you can visit cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas-and a number of small towns between. More will be added over time, but it is slightly disappointing that you can’t yet drive from coast to coast. There’s satisfaction in owning a truck and being your own boss, but I prefer being a contractor so I don’t have to worry about buying fuel or crashing my truck and spiralling into debt when the repair bills come in.Īt launch, American Truck Simulator comes with two states: California and Nevada. It’s a fairly involved business management sim, but entirely optional. Eventually you hire drivers and create your very own haulage network. You choose which city you’re based in and can customise and upgrade your truck. In less than two months you can drive through the vanilla content and discover all roads without anything else left.Once you earn enough money to buy your own truck-or take out a bank loan if you’re impatient-you can start your own company. Trucks in ETS feels smoother, they are way more agile than trucks in ATS, but they are uglier, but they have quieter engine sounds in cabin.Īnd if we talk about content, ETS2, definitely, specially if you add promods to it.ĪTS has very little content and is mostly alive only thanks to map mods like coast to coast.
Trucks in ATS feels more powerful, classic, they are harder to maneouver, and they make more noise.
You need to decide for yourself.ĮTS is more challenging, you need more patience, speeds are slower, it takes more time to do the deliveries, etc.ĪTS is more dynamic, speeds are higher (not higher, just "normal"), there are not so many fines, it feels faster since deliveries are done faster, etc. They are different games, its not about what do you prefer.
