Tangle Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Here's the thing, as stated earlier in this thread, there is already a winter mod for ATS by the same person for the same version of the game. If TMP wanted, they could simply just allow that one in ATS and all would be fine and dandy. That literally would take no effort. All they have to do is do it. I don't see why that wasn't already done. https://grimesmods.wordpress.com/2017/05/04/frosty-winter-weather-mod-ats/ Edit: Here's a suggestion thread for this exact thing, please go and upvote it.

Senutyenool Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 ^ And done, let's hope this causes a 'snowball' effect (see what I did there?...) and the hierarchy takes notice. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chev Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I would love to see this implemented to ATS. But, I highly doubt it will be added this year. (if it does, I might fall over) Have a question?

sounthernrebel78 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 It is crazy the way they treat ATS but SCS does the same thing. However, the only reason behind that is the ATS team isn't as large as the ETS 2 team. As for low players in MP for ATS that will change once we see more states added into the game. Look how long it took ETS2 to get France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I think it would be interesting to see a winter mod for ATSMP as it's counter-part has it. However, it tends to snow less in the states in American Truck Simulator compared to the countries in Euro Truck Simulator 2. We can always wait for next year ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ yo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[MCG] Kien Giang Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 It is probably because most people play ETS2 more than ATS, so TMP has done a hard job for everyone to use the winter mod. But in my opinion, TMP should release the winter mod in ATS because there are many people who like ATS, in recent years, I don't see the winter mod being released for ATS but instead it is only released for ETS2. Why ? You can look back, when ATS had WOT event, there were a lot of people playing ATS, even TMP must open a 3rd server for ATS so everyone could play. Therefore, if ATS has a winter mod, I think there will be a lot of people who like and play ATS more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSirViking Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 On 12/28/2018 at 1:41 AM, Disgruntled ATS MP User said: ^ Absolutely agree with Joao. TMP has been neglecting ATS for a long while. The size of the playerbase for ATS MP shouldn't matter. If they're going to support both games, both games need to be treated equally or they need to stop supporting the game they're going to treat unfairly. As it stands now, TMP treats ATS like some second rate trash. And as for "some of the states in ATS don't get snow IRL" (aka, the "realism" excuse), so the f*** what? Who f****** cares about realism in TMP? It's difficult to be realistic or have realism in TMP when you've got kids and trolls flying around the highways at 100+ MPH, crashing into you, everyone else, and everything else, screaming into their mics over the CB and getting pissy at you for trying to play the game how it should be played. The "realism" excuse is a sh**** excuse. It doesn't apply to TMP as TMP currently stands. ATS should absolutely get winter mod support, regardless of if it's realistic or not, or if ATS MP has the playerbase or not. I'll tell you what. Snow in ATS MP would absolutely be realistic. How? Because it'd be a nuclear winter. Why? Because with how the kids and trolls drive and act, it's like a f****** apocalypse. There's your "realism" in ATS MP. I do NOT agree with you there (or the language you are using)! Just cause the players are trolls dosent mean we cant try to keep it realistic. And California, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico dosent really get snow. Where as all the countries in ETS2 atm does. I have been to Italy in the winter and they can get some bad snow! So it just seems right to keep the winter mod out of ATS. Now you are more than free to download the winter mod for ATS and use it in single player if you really wish for snow, but trying to say that we shouldent try to be realistic just cause we have a few trolls, is just bad. And if you dont like the trolls on EU2 then give EU1 a go. And the talk that we dont do as much for ATS as ETS2 is just not right. We update ATS just as fast as ETS2 when they have a new major update out. And we cant do much with ATS since SCS dosent do much with it. SCS focusses more time into ETS2, or thats how it used to be, so we do too since ETS2 gets more updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKM01 Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 True, ETS2 gets more updates and all, and it may be true that the states in ATS don't get much snow these years, but why should that matter in a game? And anyways, I used the snow mod for ATS in single player and it doesn't add much snow to the game. I live in the U.S. and seeing ETS2 get the snow mod support and ATS does not while we all know that yeah, we might not get much snow, we do get snow, so why does the game that is based around here have to be stuck in summer? I could go on about more problems I dislike in ATS MP like only the engine of the train goes by or at time the malfunctioning railroad gate that always flashes its light but there is no train coming according to my free cam search. But I have dealt with those since the beginning of me getting TMP a long time ago, and they aren't the topic of this discussion anyways. And by what was said, it just proves that yes, ATS is being treated unfairly by both SCS and TMP. Sure, you can't do as much since SCS does not do as much, but that shouldn't stop you guys from holding your own events in ATS or adding mod support for a mod like this like you guys do for ETS2. Of the time I had TMP, I have yet to see a single event hold by TMP in ATS, I only saw you guys watch over the traffic during the clean up of the mudslide event which by the way, was hold by SCS. Not a single event in ATS, and yet many in ETS2, so you can not say you are treating it equally. NKM01 NKM01B01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebellvega Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 problem is...when have you seen snow in places like LA,arizona...hard to impliment snow in such a warm climate parts of Washington maybe?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKM01 Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share Posted January 23, 2019 Yes, there has been snow in those places, and to be honest, the desert in Washington state is actually getting more snow than the rest of the state this winter. I have heard of snow in Arizona, though it is rare, and i have heard of snow in those other places you mentioned. Also, the only 3 states that is not being hammered in snow right now is Washington, Oregon, and California. The rest of the state's is getting more snow than those 3 states combined. So it can happen, and it is for some of those areas. The snow would only be more of a dry snow in those areas than what the rest of us get.

Jason M Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I would love the snow would be fun in ATS TruckerMP it is a same so many of us what it and you are right they need to do the same for both game's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOSCHGELDIN Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 The winter mode for the ATS MP sounds great. ATS will add a nice air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason M Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 You no someone had a post just like this one but as i have said like many other's TruckerMP need's to treat both game's the same if they add snow two ETS2 the ATS should have it. They do more with ETS2 and that is a shame. All the ATS player base is left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason M Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Yes and i do agree with you they need to treat both the game's the same snow would be a great addon and ya it may not bring more player's but it would be great and you never no TruckerMP could grow a lot of people have been asking for it.

Thanks to everyone who posted or at least liked or upvoted on others. To wrap it up. 1 I hope we don't have this same conversation next year. 2 While yes it may not snow in every state and or just parts. Personally don't care, would be a nice change. Should we get it next year those that don't like snow everywhere , turn it off. That's my thoughts. safe trucking everyone, if ya See myself or dessertdog around say hi.
