hype train

Is there any plans of adding the Freightliner Cascadia Evolution, Western Star 5700 series, and the International Prostar into the game? I would love it if there's the Cascadia Evolution so I can match my truck irl.

More cabins for the 49X! YES!!!!!!

Yessss yessssss!! ..Thank you for this ..Oh and yessss!! =)

I'm so excited. Finally something really awesome actually happened

So I have to know: Will there be an option on the 8x4 chassis option for the drop axel to be a single instead of a dually like on most trucks I've seen with a drop?

No offense to anyone or anything, but I expect a future update to come out where all highway entrance lanes and highway exit lanes are longer and look more realistic like how the real life Interstate highway exits look especially travel stops off some highways.

took you 5 years

Long life SCS
Long life ATS

It's also nice that they kind of confirmed Montana. "9 U.S States [...] with 2 more in development". Keep up the good work guys, and happy birthday ATS!

2 more in development is Wyoming and Texas in which we knew of from the xmas stream. They have not confirmed Montana even though some preliminary would could be going on.

While Texas may be in development, I think Montana will come first. I think they have one team working on Wyoming and Montana... and another team working on Texas since it's such a big state not only in size but multiple large cities and many towns. So I still think it will be Wyoming , Montana, and then Texas... or even better if we get Montana and Texas at the same time or near released dates.

On the forum I've said the same thing, so your words have already been considered. But if we don't get an announcement for Montana by Spring/Summer, its Texas they referred to as w.i.p. SCS wants dlcs on Steam as soon as possible. Texas nor Montana is up yet but one will have to come pretty soon. Texas really needs 2 map teams. You can't expect one map team to work it. If ETS2 maps takes 20+ people, so will Texas considering its larger than any ETS2 or ATS map to date.

On the xmas stream, we know Jakub is doing the California rebuild with a small team. We know Simon is the lead on Texas and we know Nemiro's brother is the lead for Wyoming. We do not know were Patrik is. He could be in Montana or he could be helping on Texas. We don't know. Patrik kinda mention Montana on his Colorado stream last time but that's no real proof that is where he is. Only time will tell and reveal where he is.

The problem is that speculating Montana without proof only leads to disappoints. Continuing to think Montana before Texas is the mistake all would make without a blog saying such. Until SCS says Montana is next, its best to think Texas follows Wyoming. Whether Texas is ready for Q4 of 2021 or Q1/Q2 of 2022 is to be determined. Texas can easily be the Summer 2022 map. If you visit the forums, can search me saying that numerous times. Since the 2019 xmas stream, I have always been on board with 2021 being Wyoming and Montana an Texas be the Summer 2022 map.

"Leads to disappointment"? WTF is there to be disappointed about. Whether its Montana, or Texas, or they go in a different direction and do Kansas... it doesn't matter, you're still getting a new map and new places to drive regardless

Any chance we can get something other than the day cab for the 49X?

You didn't watch the xmas stream nor watch any off SCS's other social media outlets. They have been posting the 49x with a sleeper several times. In fact, there is a tweet for a 49x stream tomorrow at 18:00 czech time.

I am hoping for the trucks International LT Series to come anytime this year between now and New Years Eve 2021/New Years Day 2022. As well as the trucks WS 5700XE!

And MANY MORE additional content!!

Thank you so much for focusing on things that have been modded for ages... 🤨🤦🏽‍♂️

Not everyone uses mods.

Not sure if this is meant as sarcasm or not. But you have to remember than not everyone uses mods. Outside of my K100, I definitely don't use mod trucks.

Not sarcasm at all, totally serious. Then you're seriously missing out and if that is how you want them spending your money then I really don't know what to say... I want more freaking places to go and not wait another 2 years to get that new place to go. Or even PROPER sounds, airbreak sounds, turbo sounds split shift/Eaton Fuller with sounds etc that should have came with the game from the start.

You know there are multiple departments at SCS right. Maps are created by asset and map designers. The vehicle team did the axle configurations. They have nothing to do with maps.

Sounds, that is the sound guy. Nothing to do with maps. ETS2 has all axle configurations, why can't ATS. I been the biggest advocate for 8x4 and 4x2 on the SCS forums. This is a blessing for ATS fans that really wanted it. No one wants to depend on mods is they don't have to. Axle configuration may not be for you but many other people wanted this.

How am I messing out and how are they spending my money with this update if it is a free. It cost you nor I anything. Everything you are asking for in your list outside of maps is FREE.

FYI, there are 39 US states left, Canada and Mexico. Guess what......it won't be done in 2 years so you have to wait anyways.

Jerks will be everywhere bro. And you explained things pretty nice. I saw one jerk whining on YouTube for getting more states and editing engine sounds overnight, I briefly told him that what he was demanding ain't easy to implement, all these updates are surely time-consuming for a company like SCS but at least they are giving something and one can be at least grateful; if he ain't grateful just keep mum. Also there are mods so if he doesn't like the updates SCS is giving, he can go use mods, nobody has forbidden him. I don't understand why some people have to show their jerk attitude by meaningless whining.

Nope, had no idea, I am fawkin rutarded, explain like I'm five 🤪🙄... Look, how's about you allow me to elaborate for you my point chum. I would like that they would spend time on shinny new things and more things that aren't in game that are actually needed or the more practical things, things that matter, that we neither cannot use or create cause they (SCS) won't let us, or maybe even more delivery locations as well as more variety. Etc, etc, etc, etc use your Mellon and you'll understand what I am getting at......

Comprendé mi amigo? No need for anymore or your silly ass responses boi lol

STFU Puta

Come say this to my face. YOU WON'T so I suggest you STFU little Kid. Only Puta I know is tu madré. 🤫

Just want to say congrats for the 5th anniversary to American Truck Simulator. SCS and the team has gone a long way to improving one of my favorite games of all time. I bet there will be a lot more improving and enhancements in the future, so I'm eager to see what SCS has to surprise us next. Keep up the good work

little too late for that crap lol

Thanks for the good work, however, i'm still hopefuly waiting for the day when ATS will receive the long waited update for the brake sounds. Really folks, it's quite a stain on this beautifull game of yours! I live with my hope that, one blessed day, it will happen. Cheers!

Well, in the Wyoming teaser video with the buffalo in the road, there was brake squeal. Maybe that was a hint that your wish is coming true.

Holy crap am I excited for 1.40!!! Finally a third back axle!!!!! One more recommendation for an update in the future, bless us with a Pete 362 and/or 352, a K100 and/or K200, and other cabovers from other truck brands. It would be a DREAM to have a Pete 362 with 3 back axles!

👀..

When will patch 1.40 be released?

the bug thread for ATS/ETS2 was posted on the forum yesterday. It could easily be this week. My guess Thursday or Friday. This would be a great week for it too.

ETS2 got open Beta. This is a ATS blog so I am talking about ATS getting ob Thurs/Friday.

Need fifth wheel position adjustment
Not just add an axle

Maybe you guys should let players comment before releasing the content.
Avoid making these shit.
I am in the whole 1.39 haven't used lowboy once.
I'm waiting for the old lowboy to rotate back.

And I saw in the live broadcast，
Some trucks have weird wheelbases.

And 8x4 chassis the second axie should be a single-wheel steering axie.

Not simply adding an axle！

We don't use steer axles here in the US. So they did it correctly. Not only that, not all 3rd axles are single tires. Where are you getting your info from?

I want to combine this 8 axle,probably 105500 lb.
I mean there is 8x6 already have triple twins，maybe 8x4 should be different.

And 20,000 pounds of front wheels rim problem .

And lowboy problem who has said thousands of times. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

Calm down. I am completely on your side but a couple of years ago I realized that it's nonsense to criticize something. There will be many fanboys who convince you, that everything will be added in future. But they didn't realize, that many of us will be dead by those time 😕 I saw some US/CAN truck driver on YT, who told, that he can move axles on trailer depends on state laws. In ATS we have scales completely for nothing. Whole 5 years. There are so many things missing, so I stop playing and will wait only if future updates will add something. Until then no ETS/ATS

But can you fix Volvo VNL sound :(? It hurts my ears

Love the game and videos of the game just wish it was available for platforms like ps4 and xbox

Make this game available for ps4 , Xbox would be great

Finally!! Thank you, SCS! I love you.
And now, we'll have DLC Big Sleeper. But more one time, thank you, SCS!
