ouch ....yeah that's the one ...yeah I'm guessing most are not going to get that one.....too $$$$

oh ..I finally was talking to John ...he is computer-less atm but says he's getting one soon and when he does he wants to get up a new site ...the time frame "unknown"
did ask me if I'd be an admin there ..said yup..
but that was the all of it ...

Edit : anything you want up on here ?

[Resh1138]

not really; my spare time is spent in cities skylines or ATS(american truck sim)

i only know one person that has train simulator and all of the dlc(and he is a youtuber/twitch streamer)

[NekoNeko]

that's a lot of money to plop down for a game ...it floored me to be honest ...mind you if I did find a "patchy-pirate" version I most likely would try it out..my computer is capable of supporting it....

[Resh1138]

i wouldn't even bother pirating it; it is just the same game as the last 3 years versions with more dlc

seriously if you want a decent simulator try ETS2(euro truck sim 2), ATS, or Farming simulator 15

all of the above 3 are less with all dlc than train simulator 16 is with only the most recent DLC train lines

[NekoNeko]

'kay ...then I'll not bother with it ....

I'm getting a free match x3 game atm ..it's just to pass a bit of time while my encoder is doing some eps for here...next up Hikaru no Go ,,,,I did want Kyo Kara Mahou ...but...that was handier...

[Resh1138]

might be getting Huniepop and some other games soon so i might stop doing ATS for a week while i try them all out; the deliveries in ATS all feel the same at the point i am at in it so thats my main reason for getting the new games

[NekoNeko]

if that is the case a bit of variety is a good way to get and enjoy something new ,,plus no real commitment to something that's ongoing..

[Resh1138]

So I loaded up my ATS save and it looks like I might just grind out the last few dozen deliveries so I can pay off the remaining loans cause they should take about twenty minutes each

[NekoNeko]

nicely done!!!....

[NekoNeko]

and ...A Happy 25th Birthday to our birthday boy Cro ...Have a good one dude!!

[Resh1138]

ok i can't be bothered to doing the same route anymore(i keep on getting jobs that go to the same place i got the previous delivery from)

[NekoNeko]

that is boring....so what will you play the rest of the night?

[Resh1138]

don't know; a lot of the mods i use for some games haven't gotten updated since the last patch so thus a decent chuck of my steam library is temporarily only vanilla(thus i don't want to play them)

[NekoNeko]

totally understand on how things are sitting ....

[Resh1138]

So I'm limited to either War Thunder(which has gone to shit) or Farming Simulator 15 as alternate games for ETS2/ATS

[NekoNeko]

so your going to farm tonight .. XD

[Resh1138]

check the date and time of the post; i did farming sim last night

so should i trade in my current truck for the W900(it wouldn't cost me much of a setback towards getting the loan paid off(1-2 deliveries cost))

[NekoNeko]

... XD ....I can blame the low volume of coffee today ..
ohh..then yeah go for it ..if it's just the 1-2 deliveries it's not much ,,you can be debt free in no time at all...did you get the custom mud flaps yet or doing that later on ?

[Resh1138]

ok; just checked the math; its one half of a delivery after trade in

the chrome custom ones are unlocked at next level

well it will have the stock bumper/guard cause until level 17 all of the bumper guards lack a proper cattle/moose guard

[Resh1138]

so while at a fuel station i did a side by side comparison in length; the Kenworth is almost 1/3 longer than my current truck

so as much as i want a 625 horse W900 i can't justify the length of nearly a train engine especially when often i wind up with 53' trailers which struggle on turns with my current truck

also until i can have all engines and transmissions unlocked(the last engine and transmission unlock at level 18) there isn't all that much of a difference save length from my current Peterbuilt 579 or even the spare Kenworth T680 that one of my AI company drivers uses

well i bought it; the large sun guard makes it impossible to see traffic lights will after this delivery swap for the smaller one

[NekoNeko]

yes..swap it ...you can't afford tickets or demerits against you...even if you can't see the traffic lights ..still have to obey them ....

locked until level 17-18 ...bummer

...yup...I can understand what your saying ..I have travelled on many mountainous curve plagued roads and seen some very close calls with large trucks Vs tight curves....scarey!

[Resh1138]

perfect example of how it corners(this was from early this morning):


i tried to cut it more but had to reverse thanks to a gate and do that

[NekoNeko]

oooouch ..talk about squeaking by ....you loose any paint one that one ...looks awful close

[Resh1138]

It was by inches that it didn't scrape the paint on that fence

Also should I put points into eco driving(5 more points to max) or just the skills that boost delivery rewards directly till I get them maxed(13 points)

[NekoNeko]

I'd do the delivery rewards....you'll get points faster that way ...later you can work on the eco part
