Truckin' Europe! | Lets Play | Ep.2 | Euro Truck Simulator 2

[@nailz77]

Mike! As a real life UK trucker, stay in the left lane unless theres a junction! dammm ha ha I've been playing ETS2 since release, and its getting so much better, the UK was the first part of the map to be released, and SCS hasn't given it a facelift yet. Otheres mentioning ProMods are correct, it is great, especially addons to the UK. 4:50 Eurotrucks don't have jakes, we have retarders, normally an electric system using magnets on the driveshaft, or a flap in the exhaust to choke the engine 14:25 Stupid AI, that shouldnt be a yield. 17:00 The AI does not understand "roundabouts" 18:25 Say it with me Ez-Byurg lol 19:25 No, now you're on the "wrong" side ha 22:10 Definitely easier to reverse eurotrucks. Wheelbase matters lol 22:53 ADR is an acronym for a long French statement (Accord européen relatif au transport international des marchandises dangereuses par route). Basically dangerous goods.

Second this post for Promods. After playing ETS with promods I'm having a hard time to go back and play without, Promods just makes the base game's crappy areas (e.g. UK & Poland) singificantly better.

[@vishnumenon6541]

Absolutely agree with the UK terain quality. I rarely go to UK, despite my company being based in Sheffield. Also, can you explain how different is Jake bake to retarder? I'm curious since you mentioned both systems work differently.

[@volkanyilmaz9567]

Most american thing are daf semi trucks with MX engines like in the kenworth and peterbillt trucks

[@Jesther01]

remember that your gps shows the speed limit in km/h, but because your truck is from england, the speedometer are in m/h

[@aaasss666]

Glad your getting to experience Europe @moddedats now you just need to travel here for real and experience the the old country 😊 Pro mods have Ireland as well

[@uncledeath3374]

I'm from the UK and theres a bunch of truck shows over here tho i don't think i've seen a big rig over here. Your yield signs are pretty much our give way signs. Nice to see you enjoying ETS

[@M4R3K0001]

By hearing your commentary I'm sure this journey playing ETS is giving you a lot of fun :D, just to bring you to attention, in UK speed on signs is in mph while in rest of EU is kmh. Enjoy playing, looking forward to see more

[@spiderbitedml385]

They do have a cruise ship in American truck. Its called a Fairy it takes you to one end of the map to the newest dlc. Theres a steam achievement

[@jamesoke7414]

ADR, just is Dangerous Goods. It's in reference to the Transportation Treaty they have in place. "Accord européen relatif au transport international des marchandises dangereuses par route"

[@ThatATSdude429]

1:50 PERFECT EXECUTION 😂

[@Jowa129]

I have about 200 hours in Euro Truck Simulator 2, I dabble in ATS here and there as well. Pretty much everywhere but the UK will drive on the right hand side

[@sasopresern4044]

4 :18 TAM truck made in Slovenija

[@fatcrobat7944]

I’m so excited your coming out with vids love the realistic ats series and I’ve watched ets a lot more never played either but love watching love all your vids

[@SRCrixis66]

lol funny "my Bad , not from around here" lol \

[@TheDelta07sev]

Just incase you aren't aware the white sign with the diagonal black line is national speed limit. Which is 60 for normal roads, 70 for dual carriageway or motorway

[@dustind3960]

I am really liking tjis series

[@themetalknight2005]

episode 2 is called episode one

[@GameJacko]

Love your videos ATS, really glad you’re doing some ets2 :D

[@MoiDj22]

Behind a great man, there is always a great woman, I'm fortunate to share that feeling of support from my wife as well, cheer man, love your content! 8:01

[@hal8517]

In ATS the state of Washington has car ferries. There is a steam achievement (Ferry Tales) for using a car ferry

[@thecasualcaribou]

You find a lot more American nosed semis in Russia that are used for work. The Dutch love putting on semi truck shows. They have Euro & American style trucks at the shows

[@sladegouws5763]

Hey Mike, yea been playing ETS for about 9 years now. For the last 4 years playing on through steam and have like over 2500 hours. I can relate about how much time we have for ourselves. Trucking is my job and free time playing ETS and ATS. Been in transport for over 17 years. Early mornings like 3 to 4 am wake up. Work around 18 to 20 hours a day and rest 3 to 4 hours. Was a distance driver for long, pick up and drop but now, I do multiple drops each day. Truck is pre loaded with about 12 to 20 stops per day. Don't drive a rig or anything big. Not sure what they will call the type of truck I drive. Single diff closed body which can transport 16000 pounds.

[@bartekbaree]

Got this game in 2014 and I'm looking forward to seeing some modded gamerplay from you mate. I've seen a few US Cabovers in Poland but I can't remember what ones.

[@phillips_9150]

The UK is still in Europe, we left the European trade union, we didn't move continent 😊🤣

[@anthonycontreras6505]

ive been playing ETS2 for legit about 10 years

[@roter_panda]

ADR stands for „Accord européen relatif au transport international des marchandises dangereuses par route"

[@kristoffermangila]

The Volvo you're driving this time is of the previous generation. I suggest you go quick contracts for now and try every truck manufacturer in the game. Then when its time to buy that first truck, you will have a good idea of its capabilities and what suits your tastes. Oh, IRL, European ferries are big affairs, with some almost as big as some cruise ships, just have doors in front and back. About American trucks in Europe... all of them bought as show trucks. No working American trucks there, the length of say, a Kenworth W900 and an American type trailer is a little too much for the narrow roads in Europe. Speaking of truck shows, there are trucks shows in every European country. One popular one is in Ciney in France, whose latest edition just ended several weeks ago. So next trip you'll drive PACCAR steel, and its the second to last generation of the DAF XF at that. Can't wait for your impressions of the DAF compared to its Peterbilt and Kenworth stablemates... That's all for now, later man.

[@WorstBadGamer]

ADR stands for: All Dangerous and risks

[@Michaliik]

We have yielding signs but if there is traffic incoming you have to wait till they pass or they let you go

[@vishnumenon6541]

Since your company in ETS 2 is based in the UK, its better to buy a truck with LHD configuration, you will rarely make it back to UK once you start driving long distance. The challanges on roads (especially the eastern european side), is worth.

[@spiderbitedml385]

A yeild turns into a stop sign if you cant go (American)

[@rotary8576]

Ive been playing since 2014 gone through alot of mods, there are so much stuff for this game

[@aaasss666]

The Dutch are pretty notorious for their trucks and truck shows

[@freightliner2032]

bought it like a year or 2 before ATS was out...i would always throw american trucks and trailer mods in...man where they a challenge to drive on these tiny roads

[@mad_mike19-88]

If you want to get a truck earlier than taking a bank loan is there is a mod called used trucks and they are about 50% cheaper than a brand new truck which you can use til you can afford a brand new truck

[@Wizeflyer]

A load to denmark, my home country 🤘😃

[@TomTom-jl9zd]

Gdc real economy also for ets2 but the mod isn’t updated yet 😢

[@binkus5598]

the uk is in europe!!! great video though🙂

[@MikePettGaming]

😄

ADR is an Agreement concerning the international carriage of Dangerous goods by Road between the European countries. Pretty much a EU bureaucracy stuff.

[@themetalknight2005]

stated playing mre i got teh 2nd scania option

[@BenjaminHienkens-Lewis]

Love the videos! City is pronounced ez-byurg with the emphasis on the U.

[@MikePettGaming]

Good to know! 😂

[@bigskytrucker]

you said you were starting a new job Monday, but this is a pretty drastic change.

[@BattleshipOrion]

I was playin' ETS2 2 or 3 years prior to ATS releasing. Also, if this is episode 1, and last episode was 1, does this make this episode 11?

[@SRCrixis66]

great video ❤🚚

[@sv_endless6340]

12 speed 6x6 split. volvo and scania

[@mljones99]

Great videos even though I watch them muted.

[@BenjaminHienkens-Lewis]

got 577 hours over 3 years!

[@aaasss666]

How about a no gps for ets2?

[@MikePettGaming]

You’re crazy 😂

[@diesottodrives]

been playing this since release. visiting GB rarely due to poor quality, it is here since release and is endlessly far from newer expansions in terms of quality and details. there are most common gearbox layouts in settings of default game - for Volvo, Scania and ZF gearboxes. e.g. the one for Volvo has just 3 lever positions. range selector makes it 6-speed and each can be split. so 12 gears for your service. and of course all mentioned are synchrinized. EatonFuller-like aren't common for modern European trucks. as well as any manual in the end. also apply retarder if available! it is as common here as jake in US. I am from Ukraine and yeah, we have some American trucks on the roads. some of them fit in regulations with euro trailers unlike from EU. and yeah most of them are quite old. the most common is Volvo VNL I think. I also met Freightliners like Coronado, Columbia and Century. some Kenworth T2000. also my cousin drove Peterbilt dumper, local deliveries from quarry for some concrete-producing enterprise

[@dmoney4878]

Accord dangeuex Routier , ADR

[@TheDelta07sev]

Anyone saying England isn't in Europe doesn't know geography... Sure it's not mainland and we left the EU but we're still part of the European continent

[@kerot1680]

[@Michaliik]

Dude 2 lane roundobounds are monsters in this game. The ai is terrible
