Anrik Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 What gameplay settings make it feel the most realistic, including braking/trailer sliders, automatic retarder etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayRay5 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Well, most realistic feeling is when you have to do everything on your own. (Except for shifting, here you can use a automatic transmission setup as well) So, no automatic retarder (except for driving with cruise control), and brakes, depending on your truck "Just because others break rules, does not grant you the permission to break the rules as well" Please drive respectful on the servers. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirestarteR93 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Keep in minds its still a multiplayer and trolls exist - having strong brakes is quite helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.StεvƐ. Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 well I manual everything, even shifting and with brakes and retarder in my Volvo I can stop 15t from full speed in less than 300m so any trolls cant do anything to me at a dead stop with dead weight.

Unkeyboardinated Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I have my braking almost at full so I can stop if someone is trying to ram me on my side of the road so less damage. Yes This Is A Rainbow, Problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilldre1976 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 interesting so does the speed your traveling effect the damage done by being rammed then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgpch1983 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 if you have a g25/27/29 you may as well try the force feedback plugin you can find in the scs forum. it feels quite realistic or atleast better then the ingame force feedback!

marco6158 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Yes. Crashing into someone at 110 is pretty different than crashing into him at 50 Map showing dangerous places in MP - How to use TruckersMP (Italian) Senior Game Moderation Manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilldre1976 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Yes. Crashing into someone at 110 is pretty different than crashing into him at 50 what about is someone rams you tho scania? say he hits you at 60mph and your traveling at same speed or stopped etc same damage then?

S2020 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 You want realism? http://forum.ets2mp.com/index.php?/topic/15072-j-spec-trucks-the-new-cool-trend/ Anyway, I found this brake setting most realistic... You want to stop, that's not easy , Good route to follow: Don't go over 90 on high way, 70 over single lane. This video can give you a little bit idea, compared to all "promo" videos of how amazing their brands brake system. "Trucking is like love...

S2020 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 that focus driver had to be drunk what the hell was he doing "she" was trying to do what most people do in the game, overtaking before the exit she will go out and rush to the exit, ofcourse didn't see the slowed down other vehicles... She is lucky to be okay with a few broken bones. Lesson to learn: Do not overtake before your exit, wait in line! "Trucking is like love...

.StεvƐ. Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 if people don't realise it, but if you join EU1 youre fixed to 68MPH at full so speed isn't a concern, the higher the speeds people can get, the more trolls you find because they can hit you at full speed then, but really realistic controls are to drivers preference and take on realism in game. I find that going 68MPH and needing to make an emergency stop with my brake settings and can push the pedal to the floor and activate full retarder and stop fairly quickly depending on the trailer weight at the time.

xhavefunx Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I have brakes at 75%. It's not the most realistic setting, but i almost never fully engage my brake, unless some moron almost causes an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anrik Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 I have brakes at 75%. It's not the most realistic setting, but i almost never fully engage my brake, unless some moron almost causes an accident. I was using the default brake at 50% and it stops ridiculously fast. I had the trailer stability at 50% and it never comes close to tipping or anything regardless of how sharp I would turn going 80/90 kmh. Trying to find a spot where they are a bit more realistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhavefunx Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I use pedals by the way. Trailer stability i have around 15%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robi47 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 my brakes lel http://plays.tv/video/55df60b2505f7c7633(I used my both my handbrake and normal brake) but my settings I usually see you using automatic shifter lel Just because of MP I usually have brakes around 80% or something like that, trailer stability at around 50%.

Robi47 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 ^ But you're using sequential there in the pic ;o I thought you had to use real automatic to use the key And yah, I do the same thing ;3 Change between auto and manual when I want by pressing 'Alt' xd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorkal1ty Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I use all the simulator stuff (air pressure, speed limit, non-automatic retarder, etc) with manual range transmission (even modern trucks have automatic gearboxes so that could be just up to you) in my G25. I tried with all Tráiler Stability and Brake Intensity at default 50% and it felt just ridiculuously arcade. I mean, if you wanna feel safe in MP you will be able to brake in the Highway in 5m if you push the brake intensity into 100%, but that´s not realistic. It trully depends on the truck (some trucks brake a lot more than others) and take into account the load you´re carrying. In my case, I usually drive with about 15-20% in both Tráiler Stability and Brake Intensity. I still think my truck brakes too much (you can go from 90km/h into 0 with both brakes and retarder in about 3 secs, but at least I can feel the weight affecting much more into those distances and be really smoother with my pedal braking.

[ST] Hellser Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I use the primary brakes to fully stop the truck, but I tend to use exhaust / retarder to slow the truck from 85 to 40. Or all three if I need some form of an emergency brake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmidde Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 ^ thats the usual way to reduce the wear on the normal brakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHarv98 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I use Trailer braking in convoys rather than increasing decreasing a retarder's rate and For a Instant stop from 110 to 0 i use Parking Brake+Trailer brake+TruckBrake+Exhaust brake so it just takes 5 seconds to go from 110 to 0 xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
