Sunstrider Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I'm baffled at how a 4 year surge has turned this into the new Rottterdam. What i'm curious about is why players love it so much? Shortest job distance? How narrow it is? Which brings me to the second half, has SCS said anything about Revamping the Netherlands? A lot of it is old assets and could use some fine tuning. (Maybe even make a certain road wider). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SvartWolf Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 The C-D road was the main road going from Germany to the Calais port on the base game a few years back, and so it naturally gained a lot of traffic. Following this, everyone chose to continue going there as that was where everyone was, and no one likes to drive alone on TMP. Although it has now cleared up a lot from what it used to be, many still choose it as a place to be with many others. As for a Netherlands Revamp, I'm not too sure what SCS's plans are for this. AFAIK, they haven't made and blog posts on this. However I too would love to see some updates to the Netherlands area. To add to this, what do you think about Scandinavia? As I would love to see SCS expand further on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the zoom level SCS uses on Google Maps, but these intersections are way different then they appear in game. For this, i've used the area of M25 (West London) from M3 to M4. This is how it appears in game. This is how it appears on Google Maps. Same with Netherlands For this, i've used Rotterdam. How it appears in game. How it appears on Google Maps.

Never used ProMods. I did try to make my own map using the map editor. Didn't get far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interstate Nomad Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Players attract players. The more players are found in an area, the more players want to join that area. If I had to give it a name, I'd call it herd mentality. Nothing wrong with that. The course of the road between Duisburg and Calais is nothing spectacular. No beautiful views or challenging turns. I therefore assume that this phenomenon can happen at any place where are enough players around. The problem started when trolls and reckless driving players joined the crowd. And the resulting incidents made it to Youtube ("idiots on the road") which in return attracted more (reckless) players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DJ Trans*051] djmtrlltc Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 For me, I prefer to drive with a bunch of people, so driving along CD road or in the quarry is a good choice for me other than paticipating in a convoy.
