ETS3?

[Karameru]

This game has come out since 2012 and till this day there's always new DLC that I'm starting to wonder. Will there actually be ETS3 or dev will just continue to patch more DLC to existing game?
I think having new content is good but looking at the game's engine compared to nowadays makes it seems far way behind. I'm hoping that future ETS has more features like a brand new engine, physics in damage or collision, physics in trailer's load i.e.sand can spill if not handle properly etc. It's kind of a bummer that even despite intensive graphical mods to make it look like current gen, the game's mechanic are still centuries old. I mean you could hit a toll barrier with damage similar to like hitting a brick wall??
I'm also hoping that if ETS3 do come out there'd be improvements on AI as well.

ETS3 is VERY unlikely to ever happen, the developers are extremely committed to maintaining and updating the game that we already have. With the move to dx11 and planned graphics upgrades in the future, I feel like continued support and development on ETS2 will result in a better game than making a new one from scratch. I agree that this game is starting to show its age, but I feel that continued developer support can largely negate the negative aspects of an old release.

The game is looking better and better and performing much much better. Better shaders would be nice, wheather effects like fog, snow, windy storms too but I think the sim looks nice.

Graphical wise they're there already but the core game mechanics are very much outdated. I mean seriously your truck can hit so many stuff and you don't see any physical damage like dent or tear? I'm really hoping they could upgrade the core mechanic to include dynamic damage or something. Would be more fun to go around and go derby.

Truck damage would be a really cool feature to see. However, there could be a problem with licensing. SCS would have to get permission from truck manufacturers to implement damage like that.

i dont think SCS planing to change the game engine ...
that will mean totally rework of all and it will take ages again lol
for that reason to make ETS3 is meaningless:)

if you remember when est2 come out it was a bit same old ets just rework a bit
and with years they just add/rework things but never reaching the look of new games

It's not like the engine has not changed over the years. SCS has been continuously improving the game including the engine all that time.

[Nåvigåtør]

The game has been in constant progress for about two years now more intensely. I believe that there will be no ETS3, not very likely, since the developers are constantly improving the existing one, that is, always a better game but with the same name, which also helps the loyalty of fans and players in general. Personally I prefer it this way as it follows.

[Jackrabbit_V6/ RSProduxx]

We should see some more obvious improvements in the engine rather soon. They already layed quite some groundwork for that lately... ETS3 not so much...

The game engine has been upgraded since the game originally debuted. It will take a long time to build a new game engine suitable for a title like ETS 2 - it doesn't happen overnight and there isn't an existing generic game engine that is up to the Task.

Graphics improvements have been regular over the past three years or so. A DX 11 update went live at 1.36 and DX 9 support options were completely dropped so it is now DX 11 or OpenGL support for Windows, Linux and Mac.

Pavel from SCS is on record stating that there are no plans for an ETS 3. There is still further game updates and further maps that have been requested by fans that can be built to expand the map. The game also has wonderful and active mod support.

1.38 is scheduled to bring further graphical improvements.

Basically, as long as ETS2 and ATS receive community support and players are still paying for content, SCS will continue developing the two games and that's it.

What I would prefer more is a tuning pack for Volvo :P

Or, if one were to be ambitious, what I would love to see is an integration between ETS2 and ATS (maybe a "World of Trucks"?).

Basically just combine the two games together and make it so that if you want to drive in Europe, you drive in Europe. If you want to drive in the USA, then you take a flight over there. Same game engine, same assets, just some funky integration to sync/connect everything together.

I think it would be pretty cool to have intercontinental jobs (Take a job from X in the US to a cargo terminal, then take your EU truck to the terminal, pick it up, and deliver it on the continent).

For future longevity they really need to make roads more varied and interesting. a lot more minor, hilly and awkward roads/tracks. Roads need to be much much more challenging. I wish pro mods did there maps as standard that would be a step in the right direction.

I don't want ETS3.

I want native multiplayer. Like TruckersMP but working in Linux as well.
