SCS Blog Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Most of SCS Software was on a vacation last week, and we have not updated our blog as frequently as we usually do because of it. We'll try to make up for that with some informative posts in the coming days.First though, we would like to ask you about something. We have noticed that almost 1/5th of all World of Trucks jobs ends up getting aborted. We are wondering why is that? It's possible that there is something going on that we do not know about but should. This kind of feedback may help us improve the World of Trucks service for you.Do you ever abandon World of Trucks contracts?

Subtle [HKG] Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 i rarely do WOT jobs in MP, just because the jobs will limits your speed to 90km/h, and all those trolls and accidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killua // Ireland ^_^ Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I never do WOT jobs because you can't speed and I don't really play SP anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubbeledraaideur [NL] Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I always do WoT jobs, because there are a lot of them in any city. I cannot speed up over 90KM/H on EU2 anyway. Yes I disband the job, when the damage is over 5% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulgura Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Never aborted any of them (Didn't do much WoT jobs either, for now). Even one time I was delivered a 100% damaged cargo, thanks to a troll and my close relationship with the barrier after that troll. '0' is what I like to see at my abandone jobs statistics. Edit: Turns out, that statistics has been removed from the site. Nevermind, I'll never abandon one anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerAmpelmann Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I've abandon one World of Trucks contract. I was playing multiplayer and a troll rammed me causing my truck to roll upside-down damaging the trailer. I like the World of Trucks contracts, because they always work in multiplayer so I don't need to refresh my jobs by save editing or other ways there are to do it. I believe one of the reason to that amount of aborted WoT contracts is the speed limiter many players aren't aware of. I've also noticed that the WoT contracts are synced with other players so you can take same load with your friend! Ready to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBennett Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 The only time I ever abandon is when playing in ProMods. This mostly happens if I go through an area with a port that isn't part of the default map, WOT doesn't see it and keeps syncing back to the last port I was at so I can never continue :(. Never an TMP have I abandoned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiritualWolf38 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Only time I ever abandon mine if I get rammed by trolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDodger Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I drive WOT 99% of the time and I have abandoned a couple of jobs in the past. The reason is something came up that prevented me from completing the jobs. Once was when my graphics card failed and I could not see to continue. The other time was when I had to rush to my mother's house to fix a leaking toilet before her house got flooded. Neither time was it caused by WTS. If I abandoned more than that then it was caused by something unforseen and not due to an issue with WTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoLBC1 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I did only 3 jobs to WOT. In fact, I always considered this is "unnecessary", the jobs are the same, earnings per job is almost the same, and it's a hassle to synchronize the account every work started/completed.

sgpch1983 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 i dont do wot contracts in ets2 mp or sp becouse its not compatible with mods and rammers. (i play promods with jazzycat packs in sp only). now on ats (even mp) its another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDodge34 [FR QC] Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Yup, when the loads are damaged by a crash or a troll online, I abandon the load, its not worth it anymore since we can't simply reload on a quicksave to get back on the road with a brand spanking trailer that wasn't hit 3 minutes before we encountered a troll or rammer.

Dubbeledraaideur [NL] Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 @McDodge34 Loading an recovery auto save after you are rammed or went off the road, does help with removing the damage of the truck. But the trailer damage, seems to be WoT bound. I have tried it, after being hit my truck had 20% damage and the trailer 6%, took an recovery auto save. And the truck was fixed.

RogerDodger Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I had to abandon a WOT job last night after some reckless driver crossed three lanes on the IH to ram me causing damage so severe that I could not drive out of the right-of-way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empirekicking Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I said this already on the same topic on another website, Firstly it's the distance of the driving and so half way they gave up. Secondly it's the other players on the road that may crash onto them and mess there trip up, sucks. Most of us like myself don't use the system other then opening the game If I helped you out in anyway can u please click this up button arrow . Thank You!!!

Quinten462 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I don't do them because the 90km/h speedlimit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormpeaks66 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 If the 90 km/h speed limit was not in place i would , with that speed limit though its a no-no for me. No WOT contracts at all. I tried them while the event was going on for the flag dlc or whatever , i did one trip and i gave up as i was really annoyed by the speed limit. Ended up buying the dlc myself.

hazuki_quofei Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I didn't abandon any of them, but I won't do them anymore because the 90km/h speed limit…… It's way too slow in MP and you probably will get hit from the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerAmpelmann Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 ^ I haven't been doing anything else, but them in MP for a while. Only problem has been desync, but that's not caused by WoT contracts. Ready to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
