Also the Mastadon comes equipped and you can use it on every map.

guys should I get the tire pack?
Beast of War 1 月 19 日 上午 11:49 
The tire pack does contain somewhat better stat tires, especially for the big wheel vehicles.

It is not the difference of getting stuck or not however. A lot of the options seem to be merely cosmetic, although they maybe a little softer and wider and despite those things not showing up in third party tire traction charts, width and softness does seem to be calculated with in the game.

yeah get the tire pack its clearly the best one.
zombygunner 1 月 19 日 下午 12:40 
Also getting stuck is the main thing in this game why ruin it with good tires? I could not count how many times a boulder would magically appear under my vehicle tipping me over or it being dragged underneath me across the map. Trees popping out of thin air underneath you.So many things to stop you from moving forward and gaining momentum. Honestly i dont know if this is challenging or just bad programming? I think thats best left for others to decide. I love it either way.

The best is the Mastadon dlc. Its so good a lot of players hate it because it made the game too easy and thats funny because why is my game so important to them? It is the best truck.

Because when you go around telling that it is the best truck, you create a false impression that the notion that there is "a best truck" is valid and relevant; it isn't.

The Mastodon is great at deep snow and mud. And that's the only stuff it's great at, it'll get outdone by free tutorial trucks in a lot of other things.

And the players that brand the Mastodon as the "best truck" are often the players that never found out you should AVOID deep mud and deep snow unless there is some necessity going through it.

If you really need to be in deep mud or deep snow because of a specific mission, then they are the best truck.

I am not holier then the Pope, as you can see on this maybe familiar spot in Alaska, base game where this mission was very difficult with the base game truck options. But here you NEED to go through deep mud, so big wheels are actually called for.

There is no vehicle or tires that will save you from getting stuck from poor route choices, although this KW 500 has little ground clearance, will drag through mud with its undercarriage quickly and isn't the best example. It sank in to nearly half the vehicles height :-))

This will teach me to wreck that farmers fence for a supposed shortcut :-))

See what im saying lol? Saying its only good in deep snow or mudd??? Thats the name of the game Snowrunner. Holy cow you guys are doing great huh?

lets just agree the game has options for different styles of gameplay. Finding the truck thats right for you is the key and that key opens up a great game. Just have fun op.

Getting to that specific spot was a small "road" through dense trees with low hanging thick branches that stop you with a too wide vehicle, but is also setup to make vehicles roll over at multiple points on that road. One of those roads you better avoid.

The KW 500 being as ( ridiculously looking ) low as it is is then not a downside but the difference in not rolling over and losing it's load.

In that case, it is the "best" vehicle for that route as Mastodonts and the like are too large ( mission is meant for scouts i think ) and cannot pass the branches. The White Western would have done the trick, also but this one has more power.

It really is a pain sometimes due to how long it is. A lot of paths you just cannot take without some amazing winching skills lol.

This is generally an indicator that you didn't pick the right vehicle for that route (which usually also implies that there is a different route available), or an indicator that you didn't pick the right tires, or that your power-to-weight ratio is low for what you're doing.

Let me show you why I said it's only good at deep snow and deep mud, so you can observe it on your own, with one contrast example that requires no DLC.

Get a Ford CLT. This is one of the base game trucks. It has limited ground clearance, doesn't have locking differentials, and is rear-wheel-drive only. If you don't already have them, get its upgrades (most of them are in Alaska). Test it for the following, in the vanilla game areas:

- Truck performance with different gearboxes (I'll save you some time by asking you to focus your tests on the Highway gearbox).
- Truck performance with different loads on the frame, as well as when pulling different types of trailers and semi-trailers (Time saver: do a few test iterations with a loaded fuel tanker as a truck frame addon, and see what happens).
- Truck performance with different tire types (I'll save you some time again and ask you to focus on ATMD3, UOD3, and chained tires)
- Truck performance in each terrain type.



After that, do this:

- Describe the optimal choice of trailer or semi-trailer, how the cargo should be distributed in each trailer type, and why a non-random cargo distribution is relevant for this truck.
- Describe the optimal operation parameters of the truck in terms of the type of input that the driver should provide in order to maximize the capabilities of the truck.
- Describe which tire type requires a driving input style that synergizes well with the optimal input style of the truck.


After you have answered those three, you will be in a very good position to tackle this one:

- Describe 2 things that the Ford CLT does better than the Mastodon.


The tests shouldn't take more than 10 hours, you can do them in one weekend. If you do go ahead with this and at any point while doing testing you feel like you're missing something, get back to me and we can discuss the state of your tests and your observations. If you decide to do this one and you want to see more of these tests with different trucks afterward, I can offer you lots more like this one.

Talking about DLC vehicles, there are quite a few American medium trucks among them, that do not feature any wild large wheels or mud tire options.

But to dismiss them as not being "best or good" is not getting what they offer : strong modern fuel efficient engines and multiple of them have lift axles.

IRL these lift axles serve to reduce the wheel pressure on paved roads as to not damage them. In game they mainly serve to resist rolling/swaying motions of high center of gravity loads. In game too that works better on harder surfaces as in deep mud they will cause a lot of drag. They also get stuck on short bumps in case you will have to lift the axles.

Still it is a solid improvement over mediums without such axles as they will roll over more readily.

Of course when you are into just picking the largest trucks to haul logs in Normal mode ( fuel consumption does not matter ) you won't need these, although there are places where the huge vehicles do not fit.

I use these lift axle US mediums a lot for logs. The are fast and nimble. Not slow and sluggish like the largest wheel trucks.
