Outside beautiful, hollow inside

As truck sim veteran, I can already give a professional opinion compared to other Sims in the genre here.

Unfortunately, the whole thing is not particularly convincing. The graphics and the look are so very nice and certainly an advancement over previous games in the series. But it lacks basic items such as the economic system that was pretty much perfect example in American Long Haul. There is no more money, you can not buy their own truck and tune and customize according to their requirements - a heavy deficit! Instead, you have to chug with a given material from A to B. Proverbial "chug": The trucks are here as lame as a duck which runs only with 1 cylinder. So you have to be careful that you do not fall asleep, snoring! Has reached up to here by 80 km / h (or 50 mph) pass 10 min., That can not be true. In addition, you can too heavy slip from the road - since the idiosyncratic handling of Long Haul or the Euro Truck Sim me is much better. The time limits are also mostly ridiculous, also gives no point bonus for particularly fast delivery.

Refuelling can also pay as you virtually never need unless you're starting tank with NEM quarter. Signs are also around a lot too few, there is no guide. There is a lack of free and here generally flexible approach. You can not drive companies or explore just in between times with the tractor around. It also lacks the spark they have apparently abolished since Long Haul, too bad. Fatigue Simulation missing as well as the police, ram or the like will not be punished. Speed ​​limits can not break with the lame tractors anyway XD

Praiseworthy are the routes and scenarios. They are really nicely varied and you always see something else. That looks pretty handmade. But that is not enough for a good truck sim, the Economic Partnership of Long Haul should have been installed - then it would become what reasonable. The different areas would you still somehow have to merge, or individual bases.

That's just what you want to have any part of die-hard fans 18 Wheels. All others I recommend the best parts of the series (Pedal to the Metal, American Long Haul, Euro Truck Simulator, German Truck Simulator).
