I feel like ATS just got utterly crushed by these changes. They weren't necessary for ATS. Probably too many reports due to new DLCs coming out and so the game team doesn't want to have to do as much work so they just made the server super restrictive so people won't want to play. It's going to chase away drivers in the long run for sure, because you may post numbers now that the servers are full but as people get tired of the limitations, they will leave because the game will become unfun.
No arcade server of any kind for ATS? What a joke. Shows that TMP has always put ETS first and foremost, but they still won't restore the US ETS server that was taken down months and months ago.
