ETS - Euro Truck Simulator, ATS - America Truck Simulator. If you ask about difference between both games, not much appart of models of anything in game and adjusted the game play to USA drive laws.

ETS2 is WAAAYYYY better than ATS *evil grin*

i have both games if u need to pick one get ets2 have much more content

[Patilion]

ETS2 have Euro trucks, and ATS have USA Trucks................but oke ETS2 is better

[tabten]

ATS has bigger trucks and the driving visuals feels more open and expansive IMO. And the MP community in ATS is friendlier, probably with a more mature-age driver population.

Um, No-there equal overall

[TwinShadow]

Both games are rather equal with a few key differences. You have one that takes place in a European setting with Euro cabover trucks, and then the other in an American setting (I'm talking North America in general, even though right now its primarily the US) with big bonnet trucks that represents trucking here. Otherwise, they are relatively the same between the two games with the same engine, similar visuals, etc...

However, that being said. Some of the older content in ETS2 is dated and it shows. Germany has been getting a rework to make it more visually appealing, so its likely other countries will get the same treatment over time as they release more for the game. And of course, ATS is also getting more content too.

I can't say which game to go with, so just get both, or buy whichever suits your fancy more.

It's because coffee is better than tea. It gives you the Hershey squirts like nobody's business, so there isn't a constipated ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ in sight. Unlike Europe.

Show me on the doll where SCS touched you.


OP, they're both excellent games. If you're from the US, you might prefer roads that are kind of like real life, and you'll drive trucks you're used to seeing every day. If you're from the other side of the Pond, you might like ETS 2 for the same reasons. Or, you might want to see it from the "other person's" point of view.

ETS 2 does have more content right now, but there is plenty of content in ATS as well. You really can't go wrong with either one. If you can't afford both, you could flip a coin, and still be happy.

One other thing. ATS has a higher speed limit than ETS2.

Not sure if everyone got that my first reply was to be taken lightly, but it looks like you got it :-)
Other than that, i totally agree with you if i had to give a more serious answer.

One plays in Europe the other one in the USA.

Excellent well explained reasoning I 100% agree with, I have both but tend to lean more towards ETS2 because it's the part of the world I actually live in & it does have loads more content but it's got a few years head start on ATS but I'm just glad the game is still so popular
