Black Sea: RomaniaMay 24, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsSince you already know what our next map expansion will be, it's time to take a closer look at the countries found on the Road to the Black Sea. This time, Romania. Romania is a large (238,397 square kilometres) and wonderful country with a unique spirit and cultural tradition. A reason for this lies in the fact that the country is at the crossroad of Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe. Many different influences met in Romania during its rich history, and marks of these can be seen even today - for example in the number of architectural landmarks. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/4036972/0e4b0e66924eb3572704c9cb369e0eebd3c4e031.jpg https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/4036972/8f61e08f95930481ba8449a3a6621e36acc7b7ed.jpg https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/4036972/0482d5d3e5be2fbb81113d963282f4362eda47a9.jpg https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/4036972/5b783092235add8162dc986d027a884b54585b6c.jpg From a driver's point of view, you'll find everything you might desire - high mountains, deep forests, rivers, coastal roads and more! For now, here's a fresh batch of heavily work-in-progress screenshots, but you may look forward to more blog posts about the country's specifics - there's a lot to write about.

The Pure Excellence paint-job for the DAF XF Euro 6 truck and trailer is now available in both versions of Euro Truck Simulator 2 (1.34 and the 1.35 Open Beta) as free additional content for every owner of the base game. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/4036972/ca4b6cca7ed01a478fda8cc57c21e6ed40c89b7b.jpg Here is why! We have been discussing an idea to do a cross-promotional campaign with DAF for a while, and finally, we are ready. We are excited to start a new screenshot competition in cooperation with the wonderful people at DAF trucks! As a lucky coincidence for this week, we are also participating in the Steam Weekly Sale on a large selection of our content; we are throwing in a special DAF Bundle temporarily with an additional discount on the DAF tuning pack. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/4036972/e6dbb8af8218a1a697c4d0a7ff87d3321eec5429.jpg The competition starts today (20.5.2019) and will end on the 3rd of June 2019 at 23:59 UTC, with 5 lucky winners taking home some fantastic prizes.

And now you can experience it for yourself - in the 1.35 Open Beta! https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jawYKfhnlls/XNrZTVF1hlI/AAAAAAAABmc/Wp-nmmzZRk4NeiUcMvugZs_jQQJbPNw-ACLcBGAs/s602/blog_ETS2_1_35_open_beta.jpg There's hardly a single part of our game that hasn't received a new addition or feature in this update, so let's go through them, starting with map developments. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Z2vp-fp0OMA/XNrZWEcKXsI/AAAAAAAABnA/FFub3oM5LbUAaXJs-IR_zLU2K2JueOnxgCEwYBhgL/s300/sardinie.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TrT2PwaHLo0/XNrZV4fF3KI/AAAAAAAABm8/yxpNS1dzBgkrT5Tu0biPl1d1X50X-4v-gCEwYBhgL/s300/sardinie%2B2.jpg Sardinia is one of two big map additions that 1.35 brings. Most of those who helped us by entering the Experimental Beta were thrilled with how much our map designers were able to squeeze into such a small island. Sardinia is, however, the second biggest island of the Mediterranean, so there's enough room for impressive landscapes and coastal roads. https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-swFY3T20V98/XNrZVEWkmQI/AAAAAAAABnU/dqho3Soagk4DYWEPbwFzvIYRGpGi4V3kACEwYBhgL/s300/ger2.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qx48dTAAcVk/XNrZU_jIMpI/AAAAAAAABnU/GgVFLnif4IwWcMGd0z1vBA1GMzPIe0BnACEwYBhgL/s300/ger1.jpg Another huge region that has received a massive overhaul comes as part of our Germany refresh. There are over 2,000 in-game kilometres of new and reconstructed roads, two completely new highways, updated service stations, new landmarks and much more - see our dedicated article! https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-flk1055cY4k/XNrZUKZOjtI/AAAAAAAABnE/pLJRX-wfTKsqrNrPJnVWRZ9KDW_3DeqfACEwYBhgL/s300/cedule.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XdG7IU_OcQo/XNrZUjybfzI/AAAAAAAABnI/uKxqn3nakHg-8Xt8PnQAKAk7dOhXDSdEwCEwYBhgL/s300/fr.jpg Furthermore, we have added two more roads in France (one in the base game and one in the Vive La France map expansion), an improved sign system in Scandinavia and a number of Special Transport jobs all over the map, including regions within Beyond the Baltic Sea! St. Petersburg to St. Petersburg (Beyond the Baltic Sea) Pori to Helsinki (Beyond the Baltic Sea) Toulouse to Montpellier (Viva la France!) Verona to Parma (Italia) Odense to Hirtshals (Scandinavia) Krakow to Banska Bystrica (Going East!)

The Krone extendable Box Liner, Schwarzmüller trailers (reefer, curtain and log variants), SCS Container and Logging trailers are now ready to become a part of your fleet! You'll also see Schwarzmüller trailers on AI trucks. As in American Truck Simulator, new features include ...Euro Truck Simulator 2 is getting more roads to runMay 10, 2019 - PC GamerEuro Truck Simulator 2 is one of those very niche games that's really only possible on PC, but it's also a genuine hit. Years after its release, thousands of people still play it daily—nearly 19,000 are big-rigging it right now, according to SteamDB—and so developer SCS Software continues to expand its map with more roads to run, places to go, and things to see. The next addition, Road to the Black Sea, will let players haul their loads through the Transylvanian forests and Carpathian mountains of Romania, the Black Sea coastline of Bulgaria, and the Trakya region of Turkey, the gateway to Istanbul. "From large cities to small humble villages in the countrysides, truckers will also be able to drive on roads which lead to scenic coastlines alongside the Black Sea," SCS said. "These regions also offer a large variety of industries for players to deliver to and from; including farms, logging companies and the mining industry." The commitment to games like Euro Truck Simulator 2 can seem odd or amusing on the surface, but it's no joke. Andy Kelly examined the game's appeal in a three-hour Odense-to-Bergen road trip in 2015, and four years later he's still truckin': "Not once in my life have I ever thought about being a truck driver, or really had an interest in them as vehicles," he wrote in an interview with SCS Software earlier this year. "Yet I find the game utterly captivating." Road to the Black Sea is listed on Steam, but there's currently no release date. The hope, "if everything goes according to plan," is to have it out near the end of 2019. Euro Truck Simulator 2 heads through Transylvania to the Black Sea nextMay 10, 2019 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunGive it another couple years, and Euro Truck Simulator 2 and its American cousin will have mapped most of the roads of the world. Next on SCS Software’s checklist is the Road To The Black Sea expansion, adding the route to Turkey via Romania and Bulgaria to Euro Truck Sim 2. While a night-time trip through the Carpathian mountains and an overnight stop in Transylvania may sound thrilling, those dwindling profit margins prove that the world is the only vampire that counts. The new roads will be open later this year, and you can take a peek at the scenery in the trailer below. (more…) Road to the Black SeaMay 10, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsWhere do those new roads lead to? It's the question many of you in the community have been speculating over the past few months, and today we are excited to announce our next Euro Truck Simulator 2 map expansion - Road to the Black Sea. We are happy to confirm that this new addition will bring the countries of Romania, Bulgaria, and the European part of Turkey (Thrace) to ETS2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsMvOcfeZOk From the small villages found in the countryside, to the large bustling city of Istanbul, these three countries are rich with history, unique architecture and landmarks such as "Dracula's"Castle found in Romania. All of these which you will see on your travels on the road to The Black Sea. Just as impressive as the man-made structures built in these countries are the surrounding natural landscapes. Many of your journeys may lead you through forests, coastal roads or mountain ranges such as the ones found in Transylvania, which create a scenic drive for any traveler. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-eW7fKduEyv0/XNQDvRSliKI/AAAAAAAADCI/XbjqdVbWVEYQAx2lxyk_ke8XVETN-zgugCEwYBhgL/s620/011.jpg https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JhZY3XQPLI4/XNQDup6ZZRI/AAAAAAAADCQ/pY9__OJ4LKQohBoxWMB5ENTyMnzSPY0cgCEwYBhgL/s620/010.jpg https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oMnWH4TA69Y/XNQDv4BzcPI/AAAAAAAADCE/4rOMzCz8R48JJ7FGcXqO6OWJ6X-uIoEMwCEwYBhgL/s620/013.jpg https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DG8ZLe17m2Y/XNQDvulpQ7I/AAAAAAAADCI/h_qczvfVbc4Clj9DxCz9DVV7vUJLGBEqwCEwYBhgL/s620/012.jpg https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zUDFB1wYezM/XNQDusrBOcI/AAAAAAAADCM/dHN-CU4IZ2gzdlJ0bThc8HkObd6XJe_PACEwYBhgL/s620/009.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eY_Y1MV6JAM/XNQDugQmA2I/AAAAAAAADCQ/AP-_k4hx9OY7KrS2gXyYbkbwIScHxNCjgCEwYBhgL/s620/008.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9IcVEBfB5OI/XNQDwXYVrfI/AAAAAAAADCQ/hfitGGJd6l0-UthkFO5h_uDQNk3bsCWSwCEwYBhgL/s620/015.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-L12IjAEvQ6Q/XNQDwCYQCbI/AAAAAAAADCM/GHHaqwLu5ho-Npl4wDhLF9ZASLKqanX9QCEwYBhgL/s620/014.jpg So, when will you able to explore these new roads for yourself? We expect to release this map expansion towards the end of this year. We can't wait to share more with you through upcoming blog posts and on our social media channels.

And so our #OneTruckFamily event campaign, promoting a hashtag started by our friends at FIA ETRC to unite all types of truck drivers, has come to a close, too. https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_mck9F94lec/XNA326ZlBSI/AAAAAAAABj4/N1vdlZrdPwE3C46OhobJO2d8TrXzRJe4gCEwYBhgL/s620/blog_banner_OTF_thank_you.jpg A tremendous number of players have lent a hand - with a little bit of imagination - in transporting race trucks throughout Europe; from racing circuits to home bases, from testing circuits to workshops and so on. Thanks to you, the teams are now ready for a new season... and so are we! It's said that a picture is worth a thousand words. How many words is a video worth then? Because we've prepared one - as a memento to all the kilometres you guys and gals have spent on the roads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jdNGHCQCuMRazer Chroma gets official supportMay 3, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsWe're happy to announce the upcoming arrival of the official support for Razer Chroma in both American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2. Starting with the 1.35 Update, our games will support Razer keyboards, mouses and RGB mousemats (headset will use only one colour scheme). Sure, you might think what's the big deal about some "game of lights", but take a look at our video and the list of functions below. Adds a little bit extra to the immersion, doesn't it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbaxzoKHCTw During the tutorial, the keys being currently explained will be distinguished by colours and the "continue" key will be blinking green Some keys will be active only when the truck electrics is on Steering left/right and throttle/brake keys are distinguished by colour (typically WASD keys) Key for the parking brake is lit when active and blinking when the engine is on Lights keys show lights state (parking, low beam, high beam) Blinker keys are blinking (the same goes for all speeds of flasher and wipers) Gear up/ down keys are active only for non-automatic gearbox Camera keys are distinguished by colour and the active camera key is different Route Advisor pages keys are distinguished by colour and the active page key is different Trailer connect key shows state of the trailer: green for available connect, red for connecting in progress, green blinking for job delivery Activation key (typically Enter) is blinking when activation possible (eg. gas station, toll etc.) When pumping gas, the keyboard shows tank state and there is a falling wave visualizing flowing gas. When full, the keyboard is green Key for the differential lock is lit when the differential is locked and it blinks when there is a differential lock warning in Route Advisor When the job is finished, a wave goes across the keyboard, mouse and mousepad in colour of the received medal Police fine keyboard blinking When the truck is damaged a red wave moves across the keyboard All keys and other accessories slowly pulse when the job's time is running out Mouse and mousepad's left side LEDs show current player speed in green and in red when the player is speeding The cruise control key is yellow when CC can be turned on, blue when it is on. Keys for CC speed up and down are lit when CC is on Keys for lifting axle and trailer axle are lit only when lifting is available Cvar g_color_feedback can be used to disable colour feedback altogether.

Everyone is invited!Revisiting Germany Vol. 2Apr 23, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsWith the recent announcement of Sardinia, many from our community thought this would be the biggest addition to come in the 1.35 update. We'd like to contest that claim, as another part of the Germany rebuild is arriving in this update as well! This time, our map design team has been focusing on east and south-east areas of Germany, and they really haven't been holding back! Check out the change list to see for yourself! Over 2000 km in-game kilometers of reconstructed roads. New Autobahns with gentle curves Two completely new Autobahns (A38 and A71) Open landscapes & panoramic views Brand new landmarks. A major rebuild in Nürnberg Typical "Autohof" service stations https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWm9wc1BDP8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgDrJhMk584 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUJc_2CJq3c https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-418bfviiZVg/XL8NNdMyXrI/AAAAAAAABh4/yW6QHR7VzuEOpRWRD7E4kyoRZeV4IrSJQCLcBGAs/w620/map.jpgSardiniaApr 18, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsWhen we first teased an image of this location, we received quite a number of accurate guesses from our community, with one person guessing within 2 kilometres of where it was taken. So where exactly are we talking about? We are excited to announce that the island of Sardinia will be added in the upcoming update 1.35 as a free addition for the Italia map expansion for Euro Truck Simulator 2. Sardinia is the second-largest island found in the Mediterranean Sea, which means you'll need to take a ferry to the port of Cagliari from either Napoli or Palermo to get there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxIAA_CpDns On the island, you'll find three new cities - Cagliari, Olbia, and Sassari, where you will find the famous church of Santa Maria of Bethelem, and a number of smaller villages, hidden amongst vineyards and olive-trees. As with most islands, you won't find any highways there, but many smaller rural roads. So if you enjoy a drive on curvy roads with meandering climbs and beautiful coastal views, there's a good chance you will want to relocate your company to this Mediterranean pearl. Stay tuned for more news on what's coming with the 1.35 update! https://store.steampowered.com/app/558244/Euro_Truck_Simulator_2__Italia/New Road ConnectionsApr 15, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsToday we'd like to present another appetizer of the approaching update 1.35.

Newly added OR-58 will connect the cities of Eugene and Bend, and there's much to look at! For some time this road tracks Salt Creek river, which will lead you to the Odell Lake. There, far behind it in the shroud of fog, you'll see the majestic Diamond peak, the highest mountain in the region, while on the other side lays the Willamette pass resort Ski area. Pity there's no time to lose when one's working, right? https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TvoSZrwZm94/XLDHTjxupcI/AAAAAAAABgc/gO1AqIPeDJsiQOEF177VW7jRKNemH8anQCEwYBhgL/s300/OR-140_scr_08.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cF2tCCyF8bE/XLDHTUq0qvI/AAAAAAAABgc/kDto-MBjzLQ5NqRp9VyTKrz4Z5-XKTv_ACEwYBhgL/s300/OR-140_scr_02.jpg Next comes the last part of well known and liked OR-140, so you'll be able to drive all the way from Medford to Winnemucca finally! Starting in Klamath Falls, you'll probably notice that the city centre was remade and enlarged. The new road will take you past the great Upper Klamath Lake then and through the deep woods of Fremont-Winema National Forest farther to Medford, Nevada. https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JNdSJahFVrA/XLDHTAUE4SI/AAAAAAAABgs/QkrRClswPP4na88hZjP37TS-u-0sOVX5ACEwYBhgL/s300/CA-299_ats_hq_5ca4d18b_17.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-okcItpp0d7c/XLDHSdNtC9I/AAAAAAAABgc/cSQno3bHH0cbeGXGJvZNkbcBlArHwYzCwCEwYBhgL/s300/CA-299_ats_hq_5ca4cb43_17.jpg Last but not least, there's CA-299 offering the option of driving from Redding directly to Canby, Oregon, adding also a little town of Burney along the road. It's a pretty long drive, which has it all - farmlands, meander climbs, junctions, landmarks, mountains canyons, gorges... you name it! https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vPZcjlfIS4s/XLRW8rb_C4I/AAAAAAAABhQ/1RiyY58G2P4FCMgwNXbLflHhJFBvalc5wCLcBGAs/s300/Yuma_ats_hq_5cadfe06_09.jpg https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LqPGNgB70LY/XLRW8oeIGBI/AAAAAAAABhI/PkouV5QlMJsKULr0TIhd7IJgEJ2DbW-OwCLcBGAs/s300/Yuma_ats_hq_5cadfa25_17.jpg In addition to the new roads, there are various changes and additions. With CA-299, Redding received another city part around the junction of Interstate 5 and CA-299, a new garage and a truck dealer. Farmington (New Mexico) got also a new garage, while Yuma has a new garage, a truck dealer and a brand new truck stop. https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PHR6zkUyONs/XLDHUd-rKfI/AAAAAAAABgc/NmZKtej7RFcVkNz1A_aGcMhGql5jy7IiwCEwYBhgL/s300/Signs_ats_hq_5caf3c44_10.jpg https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Yg_6_OMaDpc/XLDHUrFA92I/AAAAAAAABgk/DcyxFeGHjnM833h2sh_dFeRgMGwUnffTwCEwYBhgL/s300/Signs_ats_hq_5caf3e99_16.jpg https://4.bp.blogspo...American Truck Simulator: journey's endApr 9, 2019 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunIf there’s one game that has, for me, defined my last few years at RPS, it’s American Truck Simulator. That singular nexus of deadly serious simulation and twinkly-eyed, chill-out road trip has helped hold me together at times when both the world and my own world threatened to fall apart, but it’s also been a belated lesson that games need not be defined by skinner boxes and power fantasies. The magic of the ordinary, but the ordinary transplanted to another place, free from all pressures. Most of all, the peace and freedom of the road. It’s now time for me to say goodbye, to RPS and perhaps to the overall business of writing opinions about videogames. There’s only one way to go out. One last drive. And, thanks to some very kind folks at ATS developer SCS, I get to make that last drive in a work-in-progress build of the forthcoming Washington DLC – the state I’ve long been most desperate to drag 18 wheels across.

Simply copying our content, without making any meaningful changes (and without making the mod DLC dependable in case of DLC content) absolutely isn't. Steam inventory item modifications are not either. These items are meant as, and should stay so, something special that not everyone has, while also being a part of Valve's Steam market. This restriction isn't meant to harm our great modding community, it's strictly to protect the value of said items. Every single one of them has to be obtained as a reward for time invested into our many WoTr events, or eventually purchased or traded from someone who earned them that way. So far we've banned a few of those mods, and some of the authors were warned. From now on, we will take these mods as a direct violation of property rights and we will react accordingly. We've set up a topic for questions about this - if there are any - on our forum. We won't reply on questions regarding this restriction anywhere else.ETS2 TeasingApr 4, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsRecently we released a short video showing A Road To Somewhere New... a first real taste of what major map expansion will be arriving next in Euro Truck Simulator 2. https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UVALTObf9Mc/XKYO1YVYn2I/AAAAAAAACxM/Z7JA8p7IeuMjBYzYKx9QDGIB9i3jB9alQCLcBGAs/s620/001.jpg The response we saw from the community was outstanding and many of you started to guess and create speculation of where these new roads are located. Today, we are excited to share a new gallery of more screenshots from these locations. Which countries can be explored? Where will the roads lead? Only time will tell... https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B_N8rYIp9_E/XKYPC5Yn22I/AAAAAAAACxQ/L7hXbVid0DAxCkCxtCvJoLmM4LWg4LTJgCLcBGAs/s620/002.jpg https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wIyhnT4RsEM/XKYPC4FqrgI/AAAAAAAACxY/-9v_WubYGqYxGepAT5O0ieVA-AFkgGztwCLcBGAs/s620/003.jpg https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HN6d8OSqKyE/XKYPC2ItZdI/AAAAAAAACxU/SRU3vW6WygsrgP2lUf2RgYUYPpDgT2FSgCLcBGAs/s620/004.jpg https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W6XUYVGObGY/XKYPDT0vY-I/AAAAAAAACxc/Q7QnhI_SRfA642hrghLopRdFUsuc1diGwCLcBGAs/s620/005.jpg https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-K-7L9uFFFjg/XKYPD2JQPkI/AAAAAAAACxg/kH1s4FLi8tQfWBu-otNaPDJDlU32pzxTwCLcBGAs/s620/006.jpg https://3.bp.blogspot.com/--TPec4gHLh4/XKYPD5tEYyI/AAAAAAAACxk/fGxW4NUyq7YVxdqAiu2EqeJrQvYV14BywCLcBGAs/s620/007.jpgFighting the FatigueApr 1, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsIt's April Fools' Day today, but we did not want to shock you with some sort of unbelievable story. Instead, we chose to make a little light-hearted video as a tribute to the hard work of our testers and to celebrate the moment of the start of the closed beta for update 1.35. We would like to express our sincere thanks to the fan community and the volunteer tester groups. Have fun with the new content, your help is appreciated! As for the public test, tentatively we plan to start it about a month from now, you can look forward to a series of posts announcing the key new features in the coming weeks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giYJ7_suWK4One Truck Family EventMar 22, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsLet us invite you to join latest World of Trucks event! The new season of the FIA European Truck Racing Championship (FIA ETRC) is coming. Out in the real world, we plan to be a part of the roadshow again, and we are looking forward to meeting our fans in the flesh again on the racing circuits of the 2019 calendar. We also want to do something cool in our virtual world. Last year, we asked our community to help us deliver racing components in the "Start Your Engines" event. Thousands of participants passed the event requirements and claimed their rightfully earned rewards. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HW1xkenS2QE/XJSrUmO6gXI/AAAAAAAAQp0/qZQdLS0ZPCQumJtspwvhWiw6D833eorDwCLcBGAs/s620/blog_banner_OTF.jpg Today we’re coming back to you with a new task. Let's imagine such a scenario; before the 2019 season, the teams have a long list of places to go, such as shows and public events to show off their fast and agile beasts. They also need to travel between their home bases, testing circuits, workshops, and any other places where preparations prior to the season can take place. These racing trucks aren't road-legal and we’re going to need your help transporting them to the various destinations! For the duration of the event, we have placed the racing beauties into Euro Truck Simulator 2 as a very special kind of cargo for you, and now they are ready to start their journey. Utilizing a special FIA ETRC trailer carrying the teams' racing trucks, let's show the world that no matter the size, number of axles, engine, type of use or even brand, all trucks can unite when it's needed. This spirit perfectly aligns with the new #OneTruckFamily campaign initiated by the FIA ETRC to unite all types of truck drivers, regardless if on the race track, on the road or in a virtual environment. Hop into your truck and set the course to some of the starting destinations listed below. Don't forget to show off your creative screenshots of this event under the #OneTruckFamily hashtag on your Twitter, Instagram or Facebook profiles! Tag FIA ETRC (Twitter, Instagram, Facebook), our official channels and share your participation with us! Let's take a look at the rules and rewards of this event! Rules Using External Contracts on World of Trucks-connected profile, complete deliveries with all 10 ETRC cargo trailers. For an additional reward, complete a delivery to at least 5 different destinations. Cargo trailers to deliver: from Prague: Buggyra Racing - Adam Lacko + Oliver Janes from Mannheim: Team Hahn Racing - Jochen Hahn from Stuttgart: Team Schwabentruck - Stephanie Halm from München: Truck Sport Lutz Bernau - Antonio Albacete from Berlin: Reboconort Truck Racing Team - Eduardo Rodrigues from Bremen: SL Trucksport - Sascha Lenz from Köln: Team Reinert Racing - René Reinert from Bratislava: Tankpool 24 Racing - Norbert Kiss from Frankfurt am Main: Don't Touch Racing - André Kursim from Amsterdam: EK Truck Race - Erwin Kleinnagelvoort Note: The delivery destinations change every...A Road to Somewhere New...Mar 18, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsOur Euro Truck Simulator 2 map team has been busy building a new major map expansion for quite a while already. Research and pre-production have actually started over half a year before the Beyond the Baltic Sea DLC was released. A huge amount of work is still ahead of us to complete the work, but we think the time has come to start teasing you with the very first visual clue. Don't worry, in a matter of a few weeks, we want to announce the new map DLC officially, and the teasing should turn into regular project progression reveals and updates. There is so much cool new stuff to show you, we are really looking forward to sharing it with you! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRYvt79bFEUEstonian BirthdayFeb 22, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsThe release of Beyond the Baltic Sea brought five countries to the world of Euro Truck Simulator 2, including Estonia, which celebrates its 101st birthday on February 24th. To mark this special occasion, we have updated the Estonian Paint Jobs Pack for ETS2 with an additional national truck cabin design to wear with pride when driving across Europe. For existing owners of this paint job pack, this special design will come as a free update to your garage. Happy Birthday Estonia! 🇪🇪 https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DhRSmEJyKq4/XGVteDPiP2I/AAAAAAAACj8/8JK4JdQNXh4p-VQUhaKI_P1zqv2TPeJugCLcBGAs/s620/006.jpg https://store.steampowered.com/app/980590/Euro_Truck_Simulator_2__Estonian_Paint_Jobs_Pack/
