Opinions on Convoy

[Radar]

I had a small glitch with the sound but that went away when i started a new game.
If using ATI graphic cards get the latest drivers.

Good Points
Huge map, wide roads, plenty of AI traffic great sounds and graphics, better steering feedback, longer journey times(some very long).

Bad Points
Interior graphics are a joke, no working instruments just a HUD, the hood cannot be seen from interior position they all look like cab overs from the inside.

No saving while hauling a cargo which is a bit stupid considering that a journey from San Francisco to Albuquerque now takes about an hour so how long do we have sit in front of the monitor to get from the East coast to the west coast (perhaps only do those journeys when you have a week of).

Silly red a green boxes for the cargo drop of and pickup points. (Not very realistic)

No driver chat
No on-line facility

Confusingly the Base.scs does not open with winrar.(considering this version was intended to be mod friendly)

The tutorial takes up most of the free trial so you end up buying it to see it's any good.

I think i will stick with PTTM for a bit longer.

It sounds half and half to me by what uve said there Radar, but i will make my own opinion when i try it on sat or sun.

After playing it for a bit longer i have put in for a refund as it is pure rubbish.
Long live PTTM

they said on truckpol that the demo is missing alot of things. buy the boxed version they said. dont shoot me if i am wrong! but i will buy that one two. not alot of money to use though. i didnt like the driving views, mirrors,dropoff cargo box, convoy possibility, have to run 20 inches from other truck , cant talk with other drivers etc. the game has been a mess. but im sick of the f**ked up steering in pttm. hehe. i wanna see rig'n'roll, hope that one isnt as big disaster at this one.

Once again, Valu soft releases a bunch more crap. We had problems with AA, PttM, and why would we get anything better this time around. Once again it boils down to a major lack of pre release testing to get the bugs out. so once again they'll have to be patches made as we the gamers complain about the different things that have to be fixed. When PttM was released I had made a number of comments about how poorly they did on PttM. I even offered myself to be a tester for any new games they wanted to release. Because of the experinces in these driving games and of many miles on the real roads driving big trucks. But once again the idea of testing the game before release went by the way side from the comments I have been reading.

all i can say is that i have about 40 minutes left on the trial period, and its likely to stay that way

Well after playing my 1 hour trial period i am still not sure if i want to buy it or not. I can see the good things about it which i like, but there r also the bad things that put me completely off the game.
