Left behind on the roads...

[Daniel [ENG]]

Hey, guys, I was just wondering why everyone is so much faster than me on the roads im being left behind but iIhave a Scania and like 700hp could anyone let me know please , im going 55 mph but it seems people are going 70 odd! thanks for your help ina dvance!

yea.. 55 mp/h means ~90 km/h.. and many drivers are racing with 130 and more km/h (dunno what's that in mp/h ). So it's not your truck. It's just that speed difference

[MrNoseyBonk]

Do you have the speed limiter enabled in the game settings ? the speed limiter locks the lorry/trucks max speed at 56 mph.

Tick the speed limiter off and say hello to the world of Need For Speed (trucking edition).

Disable the speed limiter in the ETS settings

 

Here is a video guide:

 

There is also another box in the MP settings, follow the wrench icon then just go through the tabs and look for something like 'speed limiter' and un-check it.

 

You can get to the wrench icon by tabbing while in game and click on the wrench underneath the player list or by starting the game and once on the login screen clicking on the wrench icon at the top left.

 

Since you are new //

 

To note, World of Truck jobs are limited to 55mph / 90 km/h

 

To note, I recommend (personally) to only play jobs that are in the freight market and that are on World of Trucks (using your own gear, trucks) as quick jobs can cause issues.

If you can handle the speed that fine, if you cant then stick to the speed limiter  i do 140km/h on D-C road and slows down in corners so i know what round that bends

^^ 140 Km/h on D-C road? Do you mean in SP? Because doing that in MP is betting that you'll be banned, eventually. Good luck!

 

Personally, I'm doing almost exclusively WoT jobs, but I've got no problems with being 90 Km/h limited, it's a truck simulator after all, not Need For Speed, and in Europe, trucks actually have speed limiters to a max of 90 Km/h, drivers can loose their licenses because of going faster. But... Simulator or not, it keeps being a game and there will always be people that see any driving games as racing games. I don't care about people driving 90 Km/h or 150 Km/h as long as they don't interfere with my game, and if they do... "record & report".
