Have you ever driven on Kirkenes Quarry (Road)?

Hello truckers!

 

Have you ever driven on Kirkenes Quarry (Road) in Promods server? Is it easy for you to drive on that road? If not, why? 

[[MCG] Chocoww [FR]]

Yes, I have driven on this road before. It's not complicated, but you have to be very patient

Hello. Thanks for your answer. 

I tried to drive on that road and often the truck stopped and did not start due to the uphill road and traffic. There is a lot of traffic and some narrow points on that road. It takes a lot of patience.

Twice, once in single player and once in TMP, don't see any reason to do it again.  If people want to go there and sit in traffic then that's their prerogative, for me however no no.

Hello yes I have driven on this road but some days it is very busy and you have to cooperate with people to pass the traffic most of the players are chinese and most of the chinese players drive on this road but overall it is a good road and I prefer it for driving

Kind regards Lauren.

Before you go, here's my advice.

 

 

And expect 61t cargo going back and forth there, so traffic would be worse.

و انتظار داشته باشید 61 تن محموله به آنجا رفت و آمد کند، بنابراین ترافیک بدتر خواهد شد. 

I accept that it is exactly so

[Myrianna]

Yes as:

 

• It's challenging a road
• Really nice views
• When being there, some people can be a bit more competitive
• This place is just full of people and much less trolls that only want to ruin your game, so you have a better driving experience (mainly because if perm banned need to buy all DLCs again)
• You can be satisfied if you get there at all or prise and shine if you get there with no damage taken

Besides, driving it is fun too.

It is nice but a bit challenging to drive in there, and you have to be very patient.

That summarizes very well the kind of idiots you can find on this road. Fortunately most of the time they are just threatening on the chat and don't do anything else. But it's annoying as there are quite a bit of people with empty standard trailers trying to race (even on that road!!) and don't want to stop 2min to let people pass. That's why you end up very often with big queues because some people just don't want to wait and force their way on path where there is just space for one truck. And since nobody is leaving space between trucks, people can't reverse and you end up stuck until someone does F7 

 

Apart from that it's a very pleasant road. And one of the rare ones that can be challenging if you make it challenging. Here is what I'm talking about:

• Drive the most powerful Scania or Volvo in automatic with an empty standard trailer and you won't have any issue driving on that road.
• Drive a 500bhp truck on manual with a 40T+ cargo on a long lower bed trailer and you will be challenged.

Yeah, I love Kirkenes quarry road. The only thing that stops me from playing it often is my loading times on ProMods :c

[2019 Opel Corsa 1.0T]

Yes, I drove it on the ProMods arcade server and fell down a cliff. lol

[Dawn - Da Peng]

Of course, I go back there every day, at least once, RickyOf course, I go back once a day, at least once. There are a lot of us Chinese there. It's very interesting to transport locomotive goods together.

[PATATINA EXPRΞSS]

Yes,but its really a long time I'm not there... like 5 years ago...or more...I'm not going there anymore partly because there are too many stupid people overtaking or wanting at all costs to pass you...and partly because it's full of Chinese people with these f*** locomotives blocking traffic and going slow...

[Cups1237]

I love the road. It's like a different game when you go there. And a nice change of pace from the other areas that could be desolate. Especially if you live in America and play at later times in the day (like I do).

Although making it mid-day and making it at peak time, it's fun (was there at peak for the first time a few days ago). It's fun to sit in digital traffic, just honking your horn; not because you're angry, just because it's funny. You make friends with the people in front of you, and the guy behind you. Although I don't keep in contact with anyone. And if someone rear ends you, it happens (whatever), I can save-edit. And it's ProMods so the trolls are few and far between. Most "trolls" are just bad drivers or are under the pressure of the road.

 

I want to try to make it down the road at peak time tomorrow. Since it's past peak time tonight. Listen to Juice WRLD and vibe out.

[realjustin]

Yes, I find this route very demanding and challenging in some situations, so I always ride with a smaller trailer, so I can get through everywhere without any problems.

Hello!

 

Yes, I usually like places with heavy traffic. Therefore, I often go to places with heavy traffic, such as C-D roads.
In Kirkenes, it's nice to be able to enjoy traffic jams in the exotic setting of "off-road"

[quack_]

The quarry road is a very nice addition to ProMods with the lovely scenic view. The only problem is many people aren't willing to co-operate with others and be patient. Often time you'll find someone blocking as they were too impatient and decided to try a stupid move.

It's a lovely place to drive during non-peak hours though as 90% of the people there are switched on problem solving wise and are patient.

[Kааn]

I’ve just tried that route for a few time back in 2020 when it was really popular. After some time, I got bored of it and not driving there anymore. I like to cruise around the map in ProMods.

[[AMART] Ali Eren]

Yes, I have used it many times, it is a really enjoyable way. But after the last update, I don't drive because I don't want to bother downloading the new version.

[ΛRDΛ K~]

Yes, I used it and I still use it. It is a road with a beautiful view as well as having patience and high game knowledge on this road.
