Just give me a destruction derby mode please.
I just want rush hour traffic after being awake for three days in heavy stimulants mode.
Why not just play Wreckfest?
“Welcome to Destruction Junction!”
Will it stimulate the downturn in shipping demand by making it harder to get work as the USA pushes itself and the rest of the world into recession.
Watch Lemmy turn one of the few apolitical posts about something American into something political in 3… 2… 1…
Politics is important but sometimes I just want to play a video game without someone turning the conversation to politics when that wasn’t the topic at hand at all. I’m super angry about all the things my country is doing now too, but I also sometimes want to enjoy what I have left instead of being constantly stressed about it and bringing up the horrors happening at every opportunity—especially with just a comment about if a truck driving sim that seems to be mostly just about driving will suddenly implement something political and unpleasant (when we know they probably will not, that’s not the vibe they are going for) and no links to taking action. (Here are a few, albeit aimed at Americans.
- https://indivisible.org/ for finding a local group to get organized with
- https://5calls.org/ for calling your local representatives
- https://www.mobilize.us/ for events in general
- https://action.aclu.org/give/now for donating to a group suing illegal things the current admin is doing
- https://www.fiftyfifty.one/ also for finding events and groups)
On the other hand, people have to vent sometimes and I guess I need to build up tolerance and a thicker skin to that, even when it shows up in a place marked Games and not US Politics.
No, that’s a DLC. Second most popular one behind “driving while being a minority”. With that DLC you get pulled over and harassed randomly.

Definitely not. Test Drive Unlimited 2 leaps to mind, which while it certainly had racing events and racing related content in it, you could also just drive around doing nothing in particular as much as you wanted.
There are several other racing oriented games that nevertheless had open worlds and you’re never actually forced to race anybody in any of them, albeit usually at the expense of sacrificing any game progression and thus having a rather limited vehicle selection. Need For Speed Underground 2 and Forza Horizon, for instance.
The same is true for almost any open world game with vehicles. Casually driving a car in GTA while obeying the traffic rules has been a thing from the very beginning.
This still feels different somehow, though.
I look forward to a virtual road trip my 86 Hyundai Pony.
To keep the Smokey’s distracted whilst you run bootleg beer across state lines?
So, according to popular gospel it’s really a penis size simulator!
Would be nice if euro truck sim got this.
Isn’t it already doable with mods tho? Just get a car mod? Right?
Nothing like taking out the ‘93 Mercury Sable for a drive.
Several of the teasers showed off a WIP Crown Vic. As a truck driver IRL that owns a Mercury Grand Marquis, it feels like this update is made just for me!

Man I love this game. That be kick ass. I still want them to add the ability to eat food. All those fast food and gas stations and can’t eat.
Wow I do not need yet another hobby but I know a couple dudes who will go nuts for this with their rigs.
This plus Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana and I can finally recreate Smoky and the Bandit 1!
Hell yeah!
I want a Scion XB
