Get READY to Explore the NATURAL BEAUTY of Arkansas in American Truck Simulator!

[@chance0283]

I'm from Little Rock and soon as I seen you pull up to the stoplight with the fire station in front of you, I said he's in North Little Rock about to turn onto Broadway. I'm so impressed on how they modeled the city even though it's compressed to size. They did very well in my opinion. Wish they made the game for console. Thank you for showing us Arkansans the DLC for the first. Been waiting for this since California.

[@rosettastoned425]

Seems they're gearing up for a console release with new controller configs and a more controller friendly interface

[@Canaandoestrains167]

I’m not from Little Rock but I live in north Little Rock :/ I love this map :).

[@Fusion2307]

Super excited to hop in the new Pinnacle and cruise around Arkansas! also glad you got the setup working again!

[@JDGurg]

The fact they included First Pentecostal Church off of the 40 in NLR, brought me so much joy. Love that church. So beautiful from the highway

[@bradtheradgaming]

As an Arkansas resident I love this! Can't wait to drive around my home state once this awesome DLC comes out! Hopefully you enjoyed driving around in the Natural State @Jeff Favignano

[@JeffreyGates-f5p]

I used to drive that stretch of interstate every day when I worked in Malvern. It just got done with construction out that way.

I'm probably going to call in sick on Monday and play this all day! LOL I love all the trees, especially the ones all around the weigh station..

[@jackstailers3248]

MY STATE LESS GOO! I hope you visit Cabot area if its in the game, and Fort Smith. Also its El Dor-ay-do not Dor-ah-do, even tho its hispanic You also started off of Broadway Street in North Little Rock(different from Little Rock), as that the big building is Verizon Arena, and the newish starbucks.

[@jaylonworld]

Yes and I'm from there born and raised here lol

[@TRUMP-rp5vy]

Go Panthers!

[@YARCHLRL]

I own a Pinnacle IRL. About time they put a good Mack in the game.

[@CSXRailfan6588]

The mod still sounds better because it has an insanely loud Jake brake

[@YARCHLRL]

@@CSXRailfan6588 I'm using the vanilla truck with an engine mod anyway

[@Nihil2005]

As an OTR driver, driving on I-30 in Arkansas can be brutal. The road is old and bumpy and always tons of traffic headed toward Dallas or leaving Dallas.

[@RCFRStout]

Dallas just sucks in general

[@MarkPorter-ci9it]

Jeff I stopped by after hearing Dan aka Goggles56 mention you by name. I recognized your voice right away! Well the browser brought me to your first ATS video ever! Wow how time has passed us by! ATS sure has gotten huge, it is phenomenal! You have found so much success! Your videos are great....congratulations and I will be back for more.🤩

[@maelmoor]

A great tradition to have you introduce the states, thanks! I'm able to enjoy it myself now and it's been great so far! But yeah, a new graphic card will do wonders against the stutters!

[@johnnycache416]

So excited! As an Arkansas resident, they did SO WELL with capturing the state! Love it :D

[@Jared_Wignall]

Awesome to see more ATS. Hope you’re doing well Jeff, keep up the great work and have a great night. Take care!

[@Zacksproductions1]

This looks pretty dang accurate going over that bridge!!

[@whathaveudone2day]

This is so trippy to see even the newish Starbucks on the corner of Broadway by the arena, they even got the airport over there with the plane taking off. If you started about 10 minutes north, you'd be in my neighborhood, It's crazy to see so many people from my area in the comments. I literally just started gaming a couple months ago first time ever since I played NES w/ my brother lol. I stumbled on to this game in a random video. I like realism, shooters, Far Cry etc. but watched one video from you on this title and I'm hooked! I love love your videos! thx☺ Are there any other women out there that love this game??

[@Jazzthewolfgameing]

When I’m playing American truck and when I go over a hill, the seat in ATS will go up and down and love you’re videos Jeff and keep it up

[@georgemorrisey7146]

Arkansas resident here, love your channel jeff! Looking foreward to seeing you play in hot springs and pine bluff

[@josephfreshour5289]

Scs nails every map they make, 8:00 - 13:00 just blows me away. Play nailed the southern feel perfectly. I do want to know their reasoning for jumping from Nebraska to Arkansas and skipping North and South Dakota and Louisiana. 🤔 Great video Jeff, got me excited for the release of Arkansas

[@vignirgunnarhauksson1992]

They want to reach Illinois before ATS 10th birthday

[@dylancalheta6219]

Nothing better then the trucking routes I have done in the past (and still do irl) being in the game. Ive been from dallas all the way to Providence Rhode Island. Multiple routes and pickups of course but so cool to start seeing the states I have been to in the game. So far looks good

[@tmay092698]

I’m surprised they didn’t include bentonville since that’s where Walmart is headquartered

[@thefirstgenesis4280]

Lately, I've noticed that SCS is hit or miss in the DLCs. I agree that SCS missed a good opportunity with Bentonville absent in the game. Same goes for missing Bartlesville, Oklahoma and the area between Topeka and Kansas City in Kansas. Thanks to us, we kind of forced them to include the missing I-44 piece of interstate in Oklahoma City. We can hope that for future updates, they can include these missing areas

[@vignirgunnarhauksson1992]

⁠@@thefirstgenesis4280they were always going to have I-44 fully in the game but it was added in 1.51

[@sagetds1995]

Probably couldn't be included because of compactness.

[@thetexanhusky]

It's likely because of the scale. Even though 1:20 isn't as restrictive as the 1:35 scale that the game initially launched with (which they changed less than a year into the game's life as they saw how terrible of an idea that was), it definitely still shows its limitations. If the map's scale was just a TAD bigger, we definitely could've gotten it. Unless they decide to rescale the map once again, it's just something we'll have to deal with, unfortunately.

[@Lungorizz]

At least we got JB Hunt and Tyson then instead haha and dont foget USA Trucks in Ft Smith(really Van buren) and Dillards in LR

[@stemlator]

Hey Jeff, fellow Missourian here! I'm from Hayti, which is about 1.5 hours northeast of Jonesboro on I-55, 19 miles north of the Arkansas state line. Arkansas looks great and I can't wait for Missouri to come out! I'm guessing we'll get a Tennessee announcement soon as I-40 and I-55 meet in West Memphis, AR before splitting and crossing the Mississippi River going into Memphis. Also, 2 miles south of Hayti is the western terminus of I-155, which crosses the Mississippi and ends in Dyersburg, TN, with US 412 continuing to Jackson, TN and I-40 between Memphis and Nashville. Truckers and travelers like to use it to bypass Memphis on the way to Nashville or St. Louis so I hope to see it in the Tennessee DLC.

[@DuckOfRubber]

TN simply because of its shape and outside connections isn’t getting released before Mississippi AND Alabama minimum (which won’t come before Louisiana) OR Kentucky (which isn’t coming before Illinois and Indiana) and they have to get the upper midwest at some point too. TN is probably still around 10th on their state release schedule.

[@stemlator]

@@DuckOfRubber You're probably right. Still, it's fun to think about as I visit TN frequently.

[@Turbo_Stallion]

I kinda wish SCS fleshed the Arkansas DLC out a little bit more. I mean they could have a least added AR state highways 92,25,and 87 which basically link Hwys 65 and 67.

[@ITZFranklin]

Hi Jeff. Love the truck sim videos. It would be really awesome if you did a run with the Alaska mod 🙂

[@tylercoe1723]

Hot Springs gang 💪🏻. Good luck going through downtown hot springs tho. Small roads with lots of cars parked on the side!

[@billycoke9084]

the town that you dropped off the cattle is Magnolia, AR. and it is extremely accurate. i lived there for a year or so and hopefully moving back there in 2026

[@matthewcscates4300]

Nice vid Jeff! I've driven the Pinnacle and like it alot. Looking forward to seeing the Arkansas DLC soon and ready to see how they handle Tennessee

[@vignirgunnarhauksson1992]

I hope that they include the Burbon trail

[@harmanrai2197]

Great video Jeff! Taking the Pinnacle for a spin currently and I like it! Pretty nice and well done truck! Also loving what 1.51 has to offer and also really excited for what Arkansas has waiting for me!

[@rileymoore4196]

Be careful going 80 mph in Arkansas Jeff hahaha ASP ( Arkansas State Patrol ) will get you they dont mess around great video jeff as awalys keep up the good work man another highly detailed state good job SCS cant wait for Pennsylvania, Tennessee, North Carolina, Flordia, West Virginia, Virginia, and New York

[@claythompson4416]

Yes I’m super excited for Arkansas

[@RileyWalden]

@Jeff Favignano this is cool, I'm from Northwest Arkansas, Madison County in Kingston

[@infernonine]

I got the dlc and instantly did a job from Little Rock to Fort Smith. We stayed in fort smith on a USA vacation last year. It looks great I’m hoping the big giant pencil it there it’s hanging in front of is a store. I made my wife drive back to get a photo. Also ate at my first wattaburger there.

[@EricPlayzGames]

I heard rumors of it coming to consoles if so I'm excited and excited to play the Arkansas DLC. I'm a resident of Arkansas it looks sick they've gotten every single detail correctly even downtown Little Rock and Union Pacific Yard on Broadway Street!

[@VoidGaming0124]

Has an Arkansas resident I approve. Im from White County, living in a little town called Bald Knob

[@mrjacobmorales]

Graphics wise, I run JBX, Snowymoon to smooth out the edges, and Reshade along with a preset. Game looks really good! Also, in case you didn't know, you can use the dev console to increase the rate of traffic spawning with the 'g_traffic' command. Just put a number after it, e.g. 'g_traffic 1.5' without the quotes.

[@jfavignano]

I can’t modify the game when showcasing early releases

[@wolfpackiwi]

now we have sliding tandems coming out

[@Cooper-z3i]

I love your setup it is awesome 🎉

[@arkansasrailproductions5507]

Where you zoomed in at on 1:37 is the town of Lake Village, which is only 15 miles away from where I live in southeast Arkansas. The town is situated on Lake Chicot, which is the largest oxbow lake on the North American continent. It stretches around 22 miles from end to end with a width of around 3/4 of a mile wide.

[@13000hgf]

As a man from arkansas this is literally beautiful looks exactly like it

[@uIfsark]

The performance is so bad for me this patch. I wasn't having any problems before even with graphics mods on but now the game is stuttering like crazy without any mods.

[@KeyboardWarrior101st]

This is crazy, I drive that exact route every time I go to the VA in Little Rock.

I'm from hot springs surprised to see it on the game we are off the main truckers routes it would be awesome to see you drive thru it one day

[@michael_katw]

It’s good to see Arkansas and more ATS from you!

[@PlyerZer0]

Nice Vid mate! I have a 2080 super and ryzen 5 5500 with 80+ mods and the hiccups seem to be more cpu related unless in 4k resolution. I found 1.51 is way more stable than 1.50 tho

[@DodgeMan360]

Love the new Pinnacle, always preferred the look of it over the Anthem. I also think they did a good job on the sounds with this one, I'm surprised as the stock SCS sounds are usually terrible. But I do look forward to Kriechbaum's sound update.

[@redbelliedgaming]

I'm excited to try the Arkansas map, getting closer to my home state of Missouri 💪

@Poofesure1 well greetings neighbors lol, springfield missouri area here 👋

[@MikePettGaming]

Well get you looking crisp lmk!

[@ejs6097]

The in-game hiccups are happening a lot to me these days. Some areas are worse than others... Matter of fact, the only way I have been able to play co op is with the traffic off because the dsync is so bad it reminds me of GTA with traffic just spawnning in on top of you. I think there must be something to that... I might think the 2080 super might be getting aged, but most people I have seen playing with much newer rigs also experience the same hiccups. I really hope ATS will spend some time working these issues out. By the time a guy gets fully vested in this game, you are several hundred deep. So yeah, I do expect more! Anyway, thanks for the sneak peek, Jeff! The rig and game look great per usual! 😊

[@BlueDually4x4]

Happy to see another Mack in the game.

[@terrylaible5774]

Hey Jeff I'm glad that next dlc will be your home state Missouri 😉👍

[@crackerbarrel6965]

Nice. Why can’t ATS devs make brakes you can overuse on grades and runaway truck ramps that actually work though? Is there a limitation with the game engine?

[@shadowstyle3139]

As an NPI replacement i recomend snowymoon's taa used to be on the forums but then he made it patreon and now its still on his patreon but free and you can even get an addon by him that adds Nvidia DLSS upscaling never used it but i am sure its a god sent and it works with VR edit: Since 1.50 the optimisation is bad i run a 12600k with a RTX 3090 with 32 gb RAM 1440p on max settings and i sometimes WITH MODS get under 50 fps and the frametimes are really bad Pavel said that the next update will be optimising but 1.51 came out and there is no mention of optimisation

[@r6geg8r]

Hey Jeff you gonna check out the Hori Truck wheel if it ever comes to America that SCS talked about in a livestream back in May?
