chipmunk197 Posted April 27, 2018 Report Posted April 27, 2018 Suggestion Name: no ats limiter Suggestion Description:i was playing ats the other day going from new mex to yuma and every city with a highway going in it i was forced to 55mph from 75mph even when the speed limit is 75 Any example images: just look at what happen to eu1 server had the same speed restrictions Why should it be added?: just look at what happen to eu1 server had the same speed restrictions and died after the first week nobody played it so thats got to say something we only put up with it now because we have to if you want to play ats mp better dlc support and none collision areas in the dlc maps would of been better 2 6
Guest Posted April 27, 2018 Report Posted April 27, 2018 I agree that there is no necessity to limit ATS since hardly anybody plays that anyway. //Moved to Gameplay.
Guest Posted April 27, 2018 Report Posted April 27, 2018 -1 the speed limiter going thru cities is realistic.
chipmunk197 Posted April 27, 2018 Author Report Posted April 27, 2018 but not on the highway when its 75 forced down to 55 or 80forced to 55 on nv highways 3 hours ago, Anriandor said: I agree that there is no necessity to limit ATS since hardly anybody plays that anyway. //Moved to Gameplay. for the most part ats is well behaved most of my reports have been about none standered trailers even thats like once a month
Guest Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 The speed limit does reduce when you go thru any city in the real world , so it is fairly realistic..Its not gonna hurt anyone if it takes a few extra seconds to go thru a town ..At the end of the day its all fun and games "supposed to be"

chipmunk197 Posted April 28, 2018 Author Report Posted April 28, 2018 but the limit going by some places are 65 to 75 and in nv its 65 on the highways going in the middle of the city think winnie is 75
Guest Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 I agree on that. Anyway, there aren't so many players playing ATS, so removing speed limit would be totally okay.
rickysocial Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 Honestly, I kinda agree on that because no one really plays on the ATS server so there's no reason we would have to limit it because it's not like a server like EU2 or something crazy like that where you're constantly being rammed and stuff.
Guest Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 I agree on that . maybe the number of players may increase
Fanatico Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 I agree. who knows the number of players can increase in the Ats. many do not play at Ats
chipmunk197 Posted April 28, 2018 Author Report Posted April 28, 2018 hopefully the devs will look at this and see the amount of people playing ats witch is around 300-400 at peak times and remove it lol there isnt even an admin on USA ats server most of the times and still no body hardly messes around the speed limit is only helpful on ets2 even then iv not seen any difference in reckless driving im still getting rammed daily 1
Guest Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 Well to be honest id like to have it where you could only run whatever the truck speed limit is in each state..Exp: California is 55 for trucks..I know most wouldn't like that but it would be realistic and enjoyable..

MrBrandman Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 Here in the US our interstates do cut through cities, a lot of reason why some cities are as large as they are. However when going through these cities the limit is not reduced. Only on city streets and maybe 2 lane state highways does it reduce. Interstates are not affected. Each state has its own limits, some faster than others. I think the limiter should be set to whatever the posted speed limit is for that area. Yes ATS doesnt have near the player numbers ETS2 does and we do things differently here. Our trucks are not limited as far as I know, but I do think their speed limit is slightly lower than that of cars, at least in my home state of Texas. I have always been supportive of the limiter in both games, however it does not make sense that the limiters do not allow us to reach posted speed limit. 2
Misha [FL] Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 In regards to realism: There is no Federal limit to how fast trucks can go in the US. However, a lot of companies choose to add speed limiting devices (governors) to trucks for fuel economy. The governors are typically set to around 65 MPH. In regards to gameplay: Setting a global speed limiter in cities doesn't make much sense in ATS. ETS2 Europe #2 it makes sense, but not in ATS. There just isn't enough traffic or issues with people causing issues for this to be a concern. If it ever does become an issue, then it should be considered, but until then I feel the limits should be removed completely. The roads in America tend to be far less curvy and the trucks themselves are less prone to tipping over than in Europe. 1

Thirdly, to the average joe who enjoys driving and not racing, being limited for just a short period of time is kind of realistic because sometimes highways can have speed restrictions for certain sections because of local issues, so just because SCS doesn’t simulate it in the form of speed signs, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Fourth, EU1 did NOT die in a week as you claim, I can say from personal experience that EU1 lived for a few months until the content dried up, hence why almost all servers are empty, not because of speed restrictions etc. Fifth, NCZs are crucial in TMP, without them, it’ll be like the old ETS2 days where trailers would ping into space because of multiple people picking up, impatient drivers ramming others out of the way and just general chaos. So from me, I say no to removing limiters, adjusting them so that speed lost isn’t that much, maybe, but when it goes a time when ATSMP comes back to life, they should be reduced, mostly for driver safety, you don’t want to be exiting into a city and be rammed by a troll doing 90mph into you.

Guest Posted May 12, 2018 Report Posted May 12, 2018 Hello @chipmunk197 of course i think that limit on ATS is good no problem slow limit -1This limit is fine

Besides, it’s easy to reduce consumption without losing overall top speed, you just need manual gears and perfect timing. Ultimately, I’d agree with you if the limiter literally forced your truck to go from 80-55 in a second or two through brakes, but to my knowledge, it’s a gradual decrease, so unless you do hit the brakes and slow to that speed, as soon as you’re out of the area you can accelerate again, and if you use manual gears and time it correctly, you don’t use any more fuel than you would normally.

_.Queen Rosalie._ Posted May 13, 2018 Report Posted May 13, 2018 @chipmunk197the thing is, it’s all about time zone, for you, there might only be 30 people online, but fast forward a few hours and that might reach near 1000. Plus,, as I said before if the limiter made you sla, on the brakes and drive 35 for the duration, then I’d agree but with the limiter just letting the truck roll and naturally slow down over distance, to me, that’s fine, especially in urban areas where what few peop,e there are on the server tend to group up, just because numbers are low doesn’t excuse you from the rules of the road.
ShadowWolf2k7 Posted May 14, 2018 Report Posted May 14, 2018 i have stayed away from this conversation, but here is my 2 cents. should we remove the speed limiter completely the ATS server (since there has been no word on when the US server will be back online) the answer is no it shouldn't be removed. as for, if it is possible, redrawing the city speed limiting zones that extend to the highways that pass through them. the answer would be yes. but only on the ones that have over passes or off ramps leading into the city, not the one that goes through cities that have surface streets that connect directly to the highway ie Carson City and Tonopah. I would also add that in ETS2 there are cities that have a highways that passes along the outer edge of the city that could have the same treatment as well ie Paris. so if it is capable to draw the city speed zone and make it so it avoids the highway, then I agree, however if not then we will have to live with it.
cFerguson Posted May 16, 2018 Report Posted May 16, 2018 I think for a smaller server, the removal would be fine. But on a more populated server it might be a little problematic.
