I have a question

[The_Wish]

Since I do not own ATS, and obviously can't play ATSMP, is it working better in high populated areas that ETS2? I've seen people running it fairly good on that Oxnard area, but on Europoort its going not that good. So my question is.. Is ATS better optimised than ETS2?

[DirtyQTipz2]

Not much experience with ETS2 but no issues here with ATSMP.  The kinks are still being worked out but it's very functional.

Also if you can give specs, framerates, graphics details etc it will be more useful on rather I buy it or not

Not many people play on the ATS servers anymore, due to the lack of content, everyone has been everywhere as the map is so small. Let's just wait until the next DLC and people will be there discovering it.

 

In regards to your question, it should cope pretty much the same as ETS as they both run on the same engine but ATS has a few different mechanics etc... Personally I think ATS runs better and since MP went 64-bit I have had an increase of frames etc...

 

Hope I helped.

@The_Wish Europort is fine at EU1 since there's not that many people on .

^But when there is... well not good not good

Personally I believe that although both run on the same engine,  ATS seems to run much smoother in reference to frames/Stability. I think ETS2 can use a little tweak but at the same time, since the latest update has been deployed it seems to run a little better. 

[Freddyk]

^ Nah, it's because that ATS's map is just small. There is not that many objects as at ETS2.

[WissX]

^ More detail and it is smaller. So yea 

[Le_T3k]

Runs like ETS2 in Scandinavia. I feel more there is more details/foliages than vanilla ets2,

so fps get some hit, especially around cities.

 

For cities in general, since they're bigger, theres very little traffic jam like europort or rotterdam. 

People spread more across all the *cough small amount* different cities, especially those with a repair garage (to teleport to).

 

edit : Also, repair garage (spawn) seems to be away from industries in many case, wich helps not having idle/spawn and pickups/deliveries in the same condensed spot.

ATS is much more stable compared to ETS2. It's also more detailed.

 

such a shame people don't play it too much... :c

[FirestarteR93]

^Well then - Game's content beats details

[.StεvƐ.]

Personally, I enjoy ATSMP more than ETS2MP despite the "small map", all im here for is to drive and have fun, not caring about whether I have to drive 200Meters or 2000Miles, ATS is a lot more stable, although FPS does take a beating depending on what truck you drive and where you are, the bigger the city and number of people in that area, the lower FPS will be. Places like Oxnard used to be way way worse than EP would be at peak times with people not understanding who has right of way and how long their vehicle is from nose to tail.

 

Ets2, even though it has more map to it, feels a lot more dead, a lot less friendly and warm, it feels cold and super clean wherever you go, especially in the original vanilla launch part of the map which feels a lot more dated now, at least with ATS the map feel swarm and inviting and the cities feel more alive with more going on and more drab and dreary colours, if you can look past the fact that you can cross the map from south west to north east in the space of a couple of hours and that youll run the same roads quite frequently, then its a far better game than ETS2 was in terms of detail and mechanics.

^ What he said.  Germany is just a barren wasteland in ETS2.  You might be on the same roads all the time in ATS, but they're prettier and less sterile.  ETS2 may have more roads and locations, but they all look the same.

 

But onto the original question.  In a highly populated area (when that does happen) it's about the same level of frame droppage as ETS has, but as other's have pointed out, there is rarely a group of super densely packed people because all of the factories and warehouses are spread out more.

[jukeboxknox]

From when I used to play euro truck to playing ats, ats does seem to run smoother, and the locations do appear to be better created. Drop offs are spread out, detail while on the road. The game is newer so it makes sense that it would be better optimized, but it still isnt the greatest.
