Euro Truck Simulator 2 news 86

The developers have shared new screenshots of the Heart of Russia DLC; this time we will see a city for the first time, namely Ryazan (the third most populous city in Central Russia after Moscow and Yaroslavl). In the city itself, you will find many beautiful historical sites (cathedrals, museums) and, of course, other equally interesting attractions. You can view all the screenshots below. Share your impressions in the comments.

Russia is a vast country where you can encounter different types of roads: ranging from ordinary highways to mountain dirt roads. In the Heart of Russia expansion, the ETS 2 developers will attempt to recreate some of these roads. 
At the initial stage of development, there were already some preliminary works related to Russian roads. However, over time they became outdated, and the developers began making various changes to beautifully recreate the necessary roads. Thanks to these changes, it was possible to create a truly up-to-date road network.
Special attention was paid to various objects: bridges, curbs, guardrails, and especially road signs. When recreating road signs, the developers encountered certain problems since Russia has road signs they had never seen before. 
It is no secret that bad roads are common in Russia. However, as a rule, in large cities and on state highways, which are often used for freight transport, the roads are in good condition. The majority of the road network consists of smaller roads, not highways, and the goal was set to accurately recreate all of this and try to correctly balance the proportions. In the new expansion, you will find not only roads with good asphalt but also dirt roads.

The developers published new screenshots of the upcoming Heart of Russia DLC on their blog today. This time, they showcased new industrial complexes — railcar manufacturing plants. In total, drivers will be able to find 3 such plants in Russia. The first is located in Tikhvin, the second in Saransk, and the third in the Moscow region. These locations will feature numerous assembly lines producing tons of metal castings and wheelsets, as well as constructing thousands of railcars annually.

Earlier we showed the sculptural monuments that will be in the new expansion. Now it’s time to look at another, quite specific but no less important type of structure – the steles at the entrances to cities.
These are unique constructions, most often made of concrete. They are decorated with signs and inscriptions – their main purpose is to indicate the territorial boundary of the city. Each city is unique in its own way, and accordingly, the developers have achieved the same effect for each of the signs.

New information has emerged about the upcoming update for the Austria overhaul. The Alps are an incredibly beautiful place, where the beauty of all Austria reaches its peak. New screenshots have appeared online, showcasing the full beauty of this area.
SCS Software is constantly working on updates, and right now they are fully engaged in the overhaul/reconstruction of Austria. The Alps cover a large part of Austria – two-thirds. This area is especially popular among tourists. The roads in the Alps are a form of art in themselves. Not everyone can handle driving in these places, as the roads are winding and often quite narrow. Even for drivers in regular cars and SUVs, it’s a real challenge, let alone for trucks with trailers. 
In real life, access to some roads is closed to truckers. However, in the game, these roads will not be closed, so you will be able to test your driving skills. The update will also overhaul many highways: A9, A10, A12. Now we just have to wait for the update to be ready to enjoy the cool overhaul and the beauty of this region as a whole. For now, we’ll have to settle for the fresh screenshots!

The developers have released the first gameplay video from the upcoming Heart of Russia DLC. The video showcases the gameplay of delivering an order from Vyazma to Kaluga.
We remind you that everything shown in the gameplay video is still in development, and many things may change by the time of release.
The release date, unfortunately, is still unknown.

The developers of Euro Truck Simulator 2 have released another batch of screenshots from the upcoming update. Vienna is an old city with a population of 2,000,000 people, and at the same time – the capital of Austria. It is a very beautiful city, but in ETS 2 the map is already quite old, and much has become outdated. That is why the city needs to be updated to make it more relevant, and the developers are actively working on this. 
Revamping Vienna is no easy task, as it is the largest city in Austria. A lot had to be reworked, but since the release of ETS 2 the developers have become much more experienced, new tools have appeared, and all this has made it possible to undertake an update of this kind. 
There are many various landmarks, old buildings, and a whole new industrial district – there are many interesting innovations. Now we just have to wait for the update to be fully ready!
