    Yeah I tried using the mouse at first but it was a disaster. I was crap at first, got so fed up of crashing and spending so much money on repairs that I stopped using my own truck altogether :o

    But now I basically never cause any damage at all (I'm level 11 now). It's definitely worth using your own truck, once you have a few extra licenses/stat upgrades you're earning €70 per mile on some runs.

    It's a cool game, I don't play it much. Only one or two drives per day, I use it as a break from studying have a heap of music into the radio folder :)

    I've got one that lets you get out of the truck and then you can take other cars etc. There's missions you can take oh and you get weapons n stuff...

    Oh wait, that's GTA :P

    Is there a mod for stopping at greasy spoons along the motorway or for picking up/murdering prostitutes?

    I tried the demo and I think it's great. Only other simulator I like is the microsoft flight ones.

    I'll be buying the full game later on!

    I grabbed the demo earlier...

    The streets of Poznan weren't ready for me. :pac: :pac:

    Managed to crash while pulling out of the depot.
    Smashed into a lamp while taking the first turn.
    Misread the satnav and ended up going up an offramp.
    Drove full speed down the wrong side of the motorway.
    Jack-knifed the truck.

    Think it's safe to say, I'm not getting hired again. :pac:

    only downloaded it yesterday evening, and i had the first drive after setting up my G27 wheel with the PC. Managed to get to the depot nearly incident free !! great fun. had bother in the drop off depot , got stuck on a wall a few times and reversing into place took me 5 or 6 attempts.

    I will give it another hour this evening before the golf starts , but it seems a great relaxing game. although i do drive a share of heavy machinery for a living !!

    Has anyone found an Irish map mod. It's all well and good being a living menace on the roads around Amsterdam but I really wanna do it on the M50 :P



    And on a side note - only 15 euro on steam right now for anyone that's interested.

    Bump. This is ~€12 on GMG at the moment so picked it up on an impulse.

    I went from laughing at how people could be playing a game that sim'd something as mundane as driving a truck..... to wondering how I'm going to pay for that 100k loan I got to buy that new truck...

    Fantastically polished game.

    Just got this game and the eastern DLC. Level 8 with over 100 grand in the bank. I'm going to work my way up, **** the banks!

    Is the physics mod any good? The handlings a bit basic as it is.

    Only thing that stopped me playing was the physics... Never really felt like I was in a big lorry.

    Enter your activation code into steam, it works :)

    The email with my activation code came from mailer@fastspring.com when I bought it a year ago. Try searching your email history.

    Have you downloaded the client from the website? If so, open that and log in. Across the top you'll see Store | Library | Community, etc. Click Library. Then just click ETS2 down the side and then install in the middle bit. :)



    Bought the Going East! DLC there, will be nice to have a bit more road in the east of Europe to drive. :D

    Picked this up in the Steam sales to play using the Oculus Rift - so far, quite enjoyable! Although I'm definitely going to need to buy a wheel.
