Sunstrider Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 After watching some videos, , why not close CD road on a monthly basis. Maybe for 1 or 2 days at a time. Perhaps some development work could go into this to make it automated. I personally think it should happen as it would be nice to see players spread out from the only road in the game. Thoughts?

Ruffian Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Hey @Aquatic Sparrow, I personally think that you have a decent idea, but I don't entirely approve of it. While it will be beneficial for players to use different roads other than the C-D road, players who spawn there after logging off could find themselves stuck, unless there's a system in place to allow such traffic to exit the road. However, if this ever were to happen, it would be interesting to see the change in server traffic whilst the C-D road is closed.

[EG] lohnu Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Hey @Aquatic Sparrow So on the one hand it sounds like a good idea aaan, because maan could bring more traffic to the other roads. However, it must also be said that this would be a little unnecessary, because you should decide freely where you want to go. And also would then probably quite a lot of TMP turn away, because some are only in the TMP to drive this route. And you have to say, then there will also be more people who violate the rules on the other roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interstate Nomad Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 The road between Duisburg and Calais was closed once in the past. Players created long traffic jams in front of the blocked entries. After the event was over everything went back to normal. I doubt a monthly held event will change the behavior of players. They will rather drive in circles around their favorite area for two days than exploring the beauty that Europe has to offer. Many of the players you find on that road joined TruckersMP because they watched a misleading "idiots on the road" video. Their only interest is to drive this road up and down all day long. A monthly event won't change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loexie Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Lmao, what the heck are the vote options? Have you thought about people not liking your idea? Anyway, I don't see the use of it. The trolls will drive on the highways from Calais to Duisburg and back instead of going to other places. Closing the C-D Road would be an useless event to be honest.

Sis'Luna Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 a new road will be very popular in the map, it will just move the problem so it's useless before the C-D road there was rotterdam at the port Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans' Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Hello, If that road is blocked, I am sure that the troll people in that area will find a different path. and they will also impress people who play in a real way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Panda SPD] Gruby Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Hi, in my opinion, this road should not be closed, I think that people who are there and will get banned can learn something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might learn something for a bit and then go back to being an idiot. But it doesn't matter if there's a cash prize being offered or a redo of the entire map. It's the drivers who are the idiots and can't respect simple road rules. If they tried this IRL, there would be punishments.

When the game detects a different version, you get a message saying "game change detected". It even moves your vehicle back to your first garage. But of course, it's up to the developers if they want to code and automatic "out of bounds check" and tp to the repair station or your first garage.

You had 5 options, and you have chosen 4 only.

Interstate Nomad Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 The option "I avoid CD Road as if it's covered in COVID." should require every player who intends to leave this area to produce a negative test result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnsNetworkGaming Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 In my opinion, and don't get me wrong. but this suggestion and additional suggestions seem pointless, you cant close C-D road as the GPS takes you another route and will always get congested that way instead, and also they've made Duinsburg a NCZ for the reason of how badly traffic was. Also: Speed bumps? This is madness to even suggest this. Still keeping it friendly, sadly this isnt a good idea altogether, Regards NetworksUK Chief Operations Officer Movezen Logistiek | Moving anything, anywhere!

_raffaele_ Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 No, because i think that intentionally restricting a player's freedom to drive where he want, it's not a proper way to deal with a problem _raffaele_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferynacz98765 Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Players would use more highways if the (physically) allowed speed in non-congested areas was 120-140. Risky, but fun. Same as C-D is kinda good balance between risk and fun if driving 90 there. (Only sucks when there is a traffic jam) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRL's different because of expenses. Only expenses on this road is gas and repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the ability to chose it's freedom, even if a player decide to drive that road multiple times, if you like it or not. You are nobody to judge what other wants to do. This is a game, not real life, and money it's not a problem in this game. _raffaele_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say to go suggest that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTOFGOD [USK] Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Rotterdam-Amsterdam road was too crowded in the past. Duisburg-Calais road is same now. The only thing that doesn’t change is change itself We will see what happen future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Save Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 If they close the C-D road for a short time then people will only find another road to populate and cause mass traffic while they wait for that road to re-open. Everyone will probably migrate back to the Rotterdam port. Ah the memories. People will always find a way to continue to do what they enjoy... even if that is sitting in traffic for 30 mins to an hour lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closing down C-D will not make drivers start to spread out on the whole map in an overall perspective. They'll just go somewhere else for those days or maybe just play other games until C-D is open again. So in the end TMP might just risk losing players if they start to limited the users on a monthly base. | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows the true amount of players who would stick with TMP. If those "idle waiters" want to wait for this to pass, they can do what you mentioned and leave the roads in a much safer condition during the time.

SebastianZ Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Closing C-D down wouldnt help at all, but trying to make the Road more dificulty or better building some deroutes or Roadbuildings in it, would help a bit more. Since Players need to wait for it. But closing it, would just stop the flow for the two or three days and had really no effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
