Great game with friends, but it needs more variety
SnowRunner is a great game, especially when playing with friends. Honestly, multiplayer is where the game really shines and feels like what the whole experience is built around. Working together to get trucks unstuck, tackle difficult terrain and complete deliveries can be a lot of fun.
That said, I think the progression can feel quite slow and a little jumpy at times. Once you have a decent tyre setup and a reasonable drivetrain, you can conquer most of the obstacles the game throws at you, especially when you have a friend helping out. This can make some of the progression and vehicle upgrades feel less meaningful than they could be.
A lot of the DLCs also start to feel repetitive, much like the base game can at times. There are only so many times you can do variations of the same types of deliveries before it starts feeling like you're doing the same thing in a different location.
I also think the game desperately needs more customisation and more options. There could easily be more trucks and scouts added to the base game rather than constantly locking additional content behind DLC. The same goes for trailers — having more variety, especially larger trailers, would add a lot to the gameplay.
Instead, you often end up relying on mods to fill those gaps, which can be hit or miss and aren't always as reliable or polished as official content.
I feel like I got a good amount of hours out of SnowRunner and I'm happy with what I got from it, but I honestly think I could have put **a lot more hours into the game** if there was a more diverse mission list and more base-game content that wasn't locked behind a paywall.
Overall, it's a great game with friends and there's a lot to enjoy, but it feels like there's a lot of untapped potential. More variety, deeper customisation, more vehicles and trailers, and a wider range of missions would go a long way towards keeping the game fresh for longer.
Definitely worth playing, especially with friends, but it could be so much more.
