PacanasLT Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 So today, after a big break i decided to play ats mp, but i noticed that there are only 2 servers, 150 players on europe. After 15 minutes of driving i haven't seen any other truck. I decided to buy ats instead of ets 2, because i like these big cities, they look so realistic, compared to ets 2 cities in it are so small, you don't even feel them. So i want to ask you, will it be fixed? With free dlcs, new trucks and tuning you can fix this problem. P.S. sorry for my english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucking Gekco Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 There is nothing to really fix, it has been like this for quite a while actually. The most players you will see on at a one time is 400, and that is usually on the US server, and even 400 players is rare. School also just started again so the summer player traffic is gone. ETS 2 simply has more content than ATS, that will probably never change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrey_(178rus) Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Now people prefer ETS 2 to ATS, especially when playing multiplayer because it has a bigger map, many DLCs and due to some other reasons. So if you want to find more people, you'd better buy ETS 2. ATS is not dead but, anyway, it's not so popular as ETS 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrland Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Before I start, let's just get one thing clear: 5 minutes ago, PacanasLT said: So i want to ask you, will it be fixed? With free dlcs, new trucks and tuning you can fix this problem. TruckersMP cannot fix anything. Lack of playerbase in the game as a whole compared to ETS2 has nothing to do with TruckersMP at all. Despite the latter mentioned, there are occasionally events hosted by the TruckersMP Event Team in American Truck Simulator. For information regarding them, feel free to follow TruckersMP's dedicated event section.

Caio' Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 The reason people do not play American Truck Simulator a lot is because the map is small, few models of trucks are available. Many of my friends own the ats, but they do not play for those reasons I quoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJFrontier Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 As mentioned above, the American Truck Simulator is not and will never be "dead", the small amount of vehicles available, the small map, among other things is what makes the "ATS" much less popular than the " ETS ". Note: SCS is also working on map expansion at American Truck. The TruckersMP team makes ATS events and helps a lot with the popularity of the game.

[TPH] John Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Even though I have ATS, I'm always playing ETS2. My friends were not interested in it even though they have it too. The community might not like it for now but it takes time until more content comes to ATS. AI will probably solve empty roads so even there are no players yet to interact with, at least there's an AI accompanying you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caff!!! Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 ETS2 is cheaper, been out way longer, and most of the community/word of mouth is in Europe/Asia rather than NA.

MrSirViking Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Yeah as the others say its cause ETS2 has a lot more content atm. But i think its a shame. I really like ATS. Its a great game! But it just lacks content. With more states and trucks i think ATS will come around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucking Gekco Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 ^ For new players to ATS sure, for the older players no. We've seen it before, a new DLC comes out and the ATS numbers will usually go up, but once everyone explores the new area numbers go back down.

I much enjoy playing ATS with mods (like trucks, trailers, etc) over stock ATS with no mods, pretty much no traffic (except for the occasional player). I don't think the MP for ATS is actually dead because there are still people enjoying it and it is still well supported by the MP developers. I believe with lots of new content that MP will be back to what it once was when it launched Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AI should definitely be added because of how empty the servers are and only reaching a peak of about 200-300. I have ATS and occasionally play singleplayer with mods but last time I played MP was during the big sur event. I play ETS2 a lot more too.

I love ATS and look forward to more content coming out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowWolf2k7 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 @[VIVA] Arctic Wolf ATS, isn't dead you preferring ETS, cant say anything about that -bigger map, more countries, vs states is right, dlc wise, ETS has 1 more map expansion then ATS does. more truck licenses is accurate, however it is harder for SCS to get truck licenses here in the states due to previous game titles. another thing I have seen as to why ATS isn't doing as well as ETS. long straight roads. that is mostly accurate to the US highway network, is the current states mostly desert, yes for Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, and a small part of California, however the northern part of California, and north western part of Nevada are green states. we will get some more desert when we get Oregon, but for the most part it will be a green state.

AshlynsGaming Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Hm.. In my opinion I see ATS as all of that, mostly becuz of the reasons I said above ^ Stay happy and safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonslayingmaster1000 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Today there was 700 peak on ATS because of 1.32 update attracting some players although you still barely see anyone except in las vegas and phoenix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichManSCTV Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I am going to go out on a limb and say ATS it self is dead, the hype is gone. Imagine if Euro Truck came out and only had Germany, thats it, no other European nations, and only had 1 or 2 trucks. That is what ATS was , and kinda still is Subscribe to my Youtube Channel!

ShadowWolf2k7 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 it doesnt help that the us servers are down, causing the us players that cant play on the EU servers due to high ping to have to play SP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
