Mineiro Uai Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Why do you drive this CD / DC route: pleasure? problems? many players? traffic jam? I tell you why I do it and you tell me why you do it, ok ??? I do it because I want and like it ... it's like a real road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I am thankful that it is not like a real road. If real drivers behaved as reckless, ignorant and over-confident in a real traffic congestion, driving would be already forbidden. On a serious note, I went there only a few times because of a job but never intentionally. Though I followed the speed limit on that road given by the GPS (60 km/h + 80 km/h) still some players managed to overtake me inappropriately, leading to a collision with my vehicle. I guess the good side of all this was that after I reported the perpetrators they were banned for some time or even permanently (those with a previous punishment history.

Inklink Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Dear @Mineiro Uai, Upon reviewing your topic, I came to the conclusion to move the topic to the ETS2 Discussion Forum as it is about ETS2 (as you've said yourself as well). If you have any questions regarding this action, or something else, don't hesitate to DM me :)!

DJ Jefferz Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 The main reason so many people drive on it is because its a base map area. You don't need to own any DLC to drive it. || || Currently: || || Former: || || || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Some people. Who drive on it are just looking for trouble imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moritaka Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 It is a known route because if you analyze it, you have sharp curves, slopes, high and low motorway crossings, rail crossing, it is 1 track per direction and in some parts it's quite closed or complex, so it's a perfect route to learn how to drive in addition to being interesting as there's always traffic in that way, in addition to typical problems such as hacker, traffic and multiple accidents; in addition to not needing any additional DLC to enjoy the route though if you require some experience and resurate when driving there because of the issues described above.

'Carter Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I mean I drive it mostly because of the people. It's seemingly like a real road minus the people that ram or drive carelessly. That's why I like it seems almost realistic to me. Kind regards, Blehmaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A perfect route to learn how to drive...There are plenty of other roads which are pretty much like that. In my opinion you wouldn't be learning how to drive on that road but more rather how not to he hit by other traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that same reason you learn, since one manages to identify things and attitudes, in addition to the maneuvers that one MUST NOT do while driving with more people in an extremely busy area; also if one learns in areas that are empty and without interaction with ordinary people [be they who take the game seriously and those who do not] you will not be able to drive well when you are, whether you are with a dedicated player or a troll.

shag67 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I think this route should be limited to 90 km / h !! and you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mineiro Uai Posted May 22, 2020 Author Share Posted May 22, 2020 90 km/h ??? it's not funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy. Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I'm not certain a 90km/h speed limit will solve the issues that exist on the route, when a great deal of collisions stem from the fact that there is some degree of gridlock. It's also not all that much of a difference, as I'm fairly certain some people lose control of their trucks at even less than that — either through inexperience, a lapse of concentration, or downright malice. Regardless of the cause, the issues won't go away with an altered limit. @[Allegiant]Sully raises a good point that some people go there just for trouble, and I find it hard to argue with that summary. The key word there however is some. Not everybody goes there for trouble. Some go because it's busy and like the idea of some form of community. It's by no stretch of the imagination a perfect concept of community, but it exists nonetheless, and some people prefer that to the very quiet roads of Western Russia, or the quiet routes around Sweden. You can't blame people for wanting to see other players on a multiplayer platform. That's the whole point; even if it does mean you get a bumper thump or two as a result. Alas, I don't believe there is an outright solution to the issues that stem from the C-D route, other than players remaining vigilant and reporting those who are deliberately causing undue mayhem.

davidd. Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 The only reason I go down the road is for the sheer amount of players on it. I think it's the best place to go, if you're looking for that more realistic feel. Although, some of the behaviour on it, would have you questioning that same realism. I tend to drive more in convoys, or on other roads on the map, though. While Calais - Duisburg can be fun, nothing beats driving on an open road with a few friends.

Guest Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Raising or lowering the speed limit would not solve a single thing. So long as everybody drives sensibly that is fine however truth be told is that not everyone does, fair enough people like to go there for the traffic I can understand that yet at the same time you're also just putting yourself into the category of players who may be going there to look for trouble. And if it isn't coming from you then it comes to you from someone else unless it is entirely avoided. The thing is that so many players seem to want to remain dormant to one stretch of road to and from two cities instead of actually venturing out to other parts of the map where they might not of explored before. And by so many going there it is only creating more and more problems due to the sheer amount of traffic, both on that road and within the cities. There just no need for it guys, like I keep saying the map is big enough. And you're just ruining your experience on one road and two cities, now for me that's just not good especially the excuses I've heard or read about why players go there.

Beenz. Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Hello, The reason I tend to drive in ETS2 is interaction to be honest. I get to see a lot of fellow staff members, friends, and the community.

MrCivilis Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Sometimes it's cool to stay in alerted zone, to drive in traffic jams. When you drive alone on highways it get's boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixi_09 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I think the "CD" route is very used because it is an area where we do not need DLC, which contains a one-lane road and which is not flat. I also think it's a route where a lot of people meet, so when people want to see people, well, they take this famous route. because driving without meeting anyone quickly becomes boring.

Strad Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I drive on that route because I love seeing other players on the road and let’s be real, driving down an empty stretch of road alone isn’t as entertaining. And when they honk back at you, the feeling is great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
