Motor Town: Behind The Wheel

Играл какое-то время активно, даже пачку модов для игры делал. В целом игру очень люблю, аналогов у неё нет. Очень много возможностей, очень много интересных занятий, почти все работы за рулём есть, которые можно представить, классный продвинутый тюнинг, потрясающая физика. Я даже могу закрыть глаза на никакущую экономику, заточенную на сотни часов гринда, и на упоротые шины, на которых ты как корова на льду себя ощушаешь, потому что эти проблемы решаются модами за 15 минут. И даже эта примитивная графика со временем начинает по-своему нравиться. НО... Чем дольше существует игра, тем в более плачевном состоянии она себя ощущает с точки зрения оптимизации. У челов на главной странице написано: "Если вы ищете глубокий симулятор вождения, который не расплавит ваш графический процессор, как Forza, то забирайтесь в Motor Town и пристегнитесь" ЗАБУДЬТЕ. Если что, речь шла вообще про пятую Форзу, которая сейчас даже на калькуляторах выдаёт хороший стабильный фпс, но последние пару недель я играю в Форзу 6, которая на моей картошке работает 50-60 кадров стабильно, и решил по старой памяти в Мотор Таун зайти... Игра итак не стремится показывать большое количество кадров, выдавая в обычное время 60. Но когда когда подгружается какой-нибудь кусок карты, и у тебя дроп с 60 до 30... Или если зайти на сервер, в город, когда рядом больше 5 человек - до вообще 20 кадров может падать... И НЕ ДАЙ БОГ ТЕБЯ УГОРАЗДИТ ПОЕХАТЬ БОЛЬШОЙ КОЛОННОЙ С ДРУЗЬЯМИ ЧЕРЕЗ ЛЕС. Ну, там пацаны на 4080 плакать начинают. Я не понимаю как в это играл... Игра скоро уже как 5 лет в раннем доступе, вместо обещанных 1-2, и даже не пахнет оптимизацией. Это ощущается каким-то издевательством. Удачи Мистеру Хвану с таким подходом.

For me this game is not about progression and rewards from the game itself. It surely was a big aspect in the beginning. Of course I wanted the bigger, better bus so I would drive around with the small one for some 2-3 hours with a friend while listening to some music until I could finally afford it. I never found it to be too grindy though I play the game to relax and lay back. The autopilot is a nice addition that makes it possible to do something irl if you don't feel like driving the 30km track by yourself. Also finding new jobs and trying them out until you find a liking on one has been really nice when I just got the game. But there are only so many jobs, so many bus routes you can come up with and in the end driving a bus is just that. Yet I see a lot of small mechanics that keep the game fun and alive for me. I quickly want to mention that I mainly played the game in multiplayer and would not recommend playing alone. There is no drawback of joining a server where you can see others haul and do jobs and it adds life to the game. The economy is a very simple system and in the end what you deliver only matters to a small extend. Additionally to a simple game of, the sawmill needs logs, then you can take the planks and transport it to x, you also increase the bonus of a town by doing jobs for the public. Driving bus or delivering to the grocery store gives a bonus that everyone gets on their jobs. This game is about delivering goods or driving with different vehicles, with as much excitement as you would expect from other trucking games, with the difference of having more jobs and a more alive world. Finding your play style and tuning your car in a way it supports that is what late game is currently about. Painting your cars or helping out others. Watching players build unholy 7-Trailer trucks because that's the way they want to play. Learning how to drive difficult off-road trips and getting to know what is and isn't possible while fine tuning for the terrain and own preferences has been keeping me excited to play. Additionally every once in a while new jobs, trucks and trailers get added and spark excitement for figuring out how to use and work with that. This game started feeling like community game the longer I played it, with self set goals and ways to challenge myself. People are friendly and find ways to help newbies. In terms of pure content there surely is still a lack in terms of late game but I love watching the game develop as I play.

Banger. Forza, Snowrunners, Farming Simulator, and American Truck Simulator all in one in the best way.

I play a lot of ATS and ETS2 and decided to give this game a try. I saw this game about a year ago and didn't purchase it due to the lower quality of graphics, one day I decided to purchase this (April 2026) and I have been hooked ever since. Why? If you like driving games you can do just about anything in the game. Trucking, Towing, Bus, Taxi, Trash pickup, Door dash style deliveries, Fire/ Rescue services and law enforcement, and racing. Also, this game doesn't hold your hand and gives you the freedom to haul cargo your way vs. a default setting and you have to decide if it will work or not before you begin your trip. The game also allows you to get out of the vehicles load and unload cargo plus strap cargos down, fuel vehicles, adjust landing gear and 5th wheel positions on semi trucks and trailers. Which ATS and ETS2 lack, which I think make the game more interesting and more detailed. You have off road trails to drive on which get interesting and annoying if you are not prepared or have the right vehicle for the job. Driving up and down grades can be challenging if you're hauling heavy cargo because you can cook your brakes or over heat your engine. There's still a lot of stuff I haven't done yet, but its a neat game to play if you can look past the graphics. If I was to change a couple things in the game I would add a couple flatbed trailers that can haul both cars and freight so it would make it more multipurpose and as the game expands I would create a bunch of jobsites where you deliver cargo to and as you complete the needed materials for the job site the building would be completed and would be a finished product. Such as a dirt lot turned into a warehouse/ factory or a dirt lot turned into a new house. Hope this helps some and enjoy the ride. :)

Game looks good, is actually fun too, and runs smoothly. I'm giving it a negative review for 1 reason: traction, or the lack of it, fix the traction so it's not like driving on ice with butter tires and I'll be happy

NO TRACTION, unbearable. I hate this single element enough to drop game and never come back, as dev said IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THAT Wheels are slippery like they are made of literal plastic polygons on literal ice. - Can't start driving, speed barely grows on such roads. - Can't stop, any truck just slides on ground for extremely long distances - Can't turn - daring to drive faster than 30km/h makes impossible to turn on any of curves. Gotta slow down to snail pace. NPCs seems to not care - Can't drive uphill - not having any traction makes any decent load a suffering to move considering how often road curves up or down for no reason - Can't drive downhill - braking doesn't help, causing to turn on too high speed and again sliding away from road. I hate this Same problem for small or large cars. They simple don't grip road enough Just plays ETS2 or ATS, this is unbearable

This is a game about driving. All the things you can do to make money driving in a Sandbox RPG. I had no idea the depth of the mechanics regarding vehicles, upgrades, physics, weather.... There is a lot to a game that on it's face looks fairly basic. Don't let that fool you! I'd say the driving is somewhere between GTA 5 and BeamNG. The car customization feels good, but not overwhelming. It's ABSOLUTELY worth the price if you enjoy driving games, but wish you had real freedom. I put a podcast on and drive around doing missions as a way to relax. Great controller feel. 8/10 What would make it a 10/10 for me is better collision/visible damage A denser world. Right now things feel pretty spread apart.
