ChicagoCyclist Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I get that Scout cars are made to get you from point A to point B faster and it's "cool" to be in a car that revolves round trucking, but I just don't get why these Scout cars have speed limits on them. 95% of the people using them aren't for actual pilot convoys (even when they have the paint for a piloted vehicle, they still aren't piloting a convoy) and I always see them going unbelievably fast to the point where they are constantly a menace to be around. Whenever I see one or a group of them, I just slow down or pull over until they pass because they always try to squeeze by side-by-side because god forbid they drive realistically, behind one another. I am sure it's been asked dozens of times, but why is there not a speed limit on these Scout cars? I feel like that would put a major dent in the trolling in regards to ramming.

Guest Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 As you said, it's been asked before, which is why the search function is there for you to use..there will not be anymore updates regarding them and they are set to the same as the trucks as this is a truck simulator.

Mirko9 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Probaly you can't drive how much you wanna with scout (etc. 300) so there is a speed limit. Also use Europe1 server if you don't wanna be rammed,blocked or something else by scout cars. Happy trucking and have a safe yourney! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucking Gekco Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I don't think they will add a speed limit on the cars, while they are annoying, they aren't that bad if you pay attention to where they are at all times. The cars are banned on EU #1, so if you want to get away from the cars then that's the server to join. However, with that you would need to give up the amount of players you see on the roads since not too much players play on EU #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrland Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 You realise that if a speed limiter is placed on cars, the trolls will just switch to trucks... TruckersMP - Staff Team Member - Twitter | Steam | Facebook | YouTube | Discord - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works fine for ets2 what about the players on ats.we dont have a e1 server to go to what are we supposed to do ?? put a speed limit of 65 on the cars will solve the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Truckers.FM Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I think cars have become a bit of problem maker outside their ideal purpose (convoy control/admin police) Unfortunately there will always be trolls, but I personally believe cars have not helped the troll problem.

Driver-Ramon Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Me does not matter the speed of cars why not the difference there must be a car is faster than a truck is in fact as well. It should be possible for me to keep the cars faster than the lorries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngryBadger Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I know not everyone who drives a car in the game behaves badly, but generally speaking I've found them to a menace. The other night I was driving with a friend and a random guy in a pilot car started pulling in between our trucks, getting in front of us or dropping back behind us, sort of like an annoying fly hanging around at a BBQ. Maybe a speed limit would help, you could still use them for piloting, but it might stop some of the cruise missile pilots from bothering with them.

Interstate Nomad Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 ^ Given that you are not allowed to harm them, would it make your BBQ more enjoyable if the flies were flying slower? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slushbro Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 This is a good idea. 160 - 180 km/h are enough for the most situations. As is said it would be easier to ban all paints exept the pilot paint. A lot of car drivers will let it to drive with cars. Slushbro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killua // Ireland ^_^ Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 There is no need to limit the speed on the cars, plenty of people (me included) know how to control them at speed. I often speed in the car but I know when to slow down and yes for a while driving the car (especially at first) I did crash quite a bit at speed but I have now gotten used to it and learned how to control it at speed.

Project Manager Luna Posted August 14, 2017 Project Manager Share Posted August 14, 2017 I am not sure if it would be right, because it is unfair for cars. Trucks sometimes are so stupid too. So -1 from me. Appeal your ban | Submit feedback | Have a nice day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brads331 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 +1 I think they should add the limiter to make it more realistic, say I had a vauxhall/opel zafira and a skoda superb they would both be limited to about 125mph maybe a little bit more, I've used a dyno to see to top speed that a 2012 ford focus could produce (With limiter on) which was about 130mph so i don't get why we don't have the limiters implemented into the game and/or better handling so players can control these "Scouts" better when doing excessive speeding (200+ km/h) otherwise we are going to continue having these massive pile-ups as people doing 100mph + around a slight bend in the road start to lose control, as with this said if people doing 130+mph in these cars can't control them in the meanwhile until the handling is improved, please drive to what you can control the veichle otherwise these accident's will continue to happen. 9/10 the trucks are damaged more then these car's so I also think there should be a different server just for car's (EU#4 could be changed just for the cars).

Enzo #GaleraDoSul Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Limiter to cars? The trolls will continue to exist whatever you do If you do not want to be disturbed by the Scout I recommend the EU1 server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cowie Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 If You Want To Drive Without Having Pilot Cars Ram You, I Recommend Using EU 1, Cars Are Not On That Server, As They Would Get Kicked If They Try Driving A Pilot Car. ccowie25, TFM Presenter, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
