Mafiozo[PL] Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Today we would like to introduce one of the features that you can expect with the upcoming Euro Truck Simulator 2 update 1.22 - Tyre grades. We have already mentioned that we are looking into it in one of our earlier blogs. We are happy that it finally came to its fruition. Inspired by actual European regulations, we tried to adapt reality to fit our game. All tyres are now graded based on three parameters: fuel efficiency, wet grip, and noise levels. The game takes tyre properties into account, so real life tyre grades correspond with in-game behaviour. Off course by long wear or damage, tyre quality may degrade. We will now also support different tyre sizes. In the original game, we referred to a tyre (back then actually the whole wheel) just by its name. We are now enriching the simulation to include support for alternate tyre sizes, so the size is added to the naming convention. While revisiting the tyres, we thought that it would be cool to add support for what we see in the tuning and modding community - tyre coloring. Stock tyres just sport the standard rubber look of course, but for additional tuning effect, the colour of designated parts of a tyre (like the manufacturer names or logos) can be altered. The in-game support is quite comfortable, allowing to choose the particular colour with a comfortable colour picker widget. We are about to enter internal testing phase of this feature. As usual, before the final release, you can expect a round of Steam open betas - for those of you ready to help us out with community QA, or just cannot wait but experience any new features as soon as possible. Oh, there is also a new original manufacturer-branded DLC coming, which will greatly expand your tyre choice . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorkal1ty Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Michelin officially branded and new tyre size and colour customization sounds great, but knowing our wheels will sound and feel different according to their type is awesome. I was not expecting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zulnex Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 This is a very nice surprise. It will be cool to have Michelin in game. Hopefully, SCS will be successful in getting a license from some Euro trailer manufacturers. It would be wonderful to have an officially licensed trailer DLC.

Smooth Dog Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I'll be buying the noisiest tires available. I love hearing that whining sounds the tires make when you go fast. (which is usually at 90 kph and above) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London Truckers.FM Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Hopfully, if we see new Tyre physics with wear along with different ones for weather. maybe we could see new physics and weather implemented into the game? Snowy slippery alps drive anyone? yes please <3 <3 Community Manager at SCS Software & Truckers.FM Founder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaaMArtin Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 While I'm glad they are doing this, it makes me wonder if this is the path they will keep going down. It seems like they are pushing out more small dlc's these days. I guess it's important to make money, but I hope they stick to their old philosophy of regular free updates as well. This is not the biggest problem in the world, but what about if trailer ownage becomes a dlc? Or tandems? I just hope they don't become a money grabbing company, like all others. Until now, the balance has been very nice. This is just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
