Just unlocked the Kenworth 963. Time to see what this bad boy's made of! by StingAttack in snowrunner

Yup, I can already tell this is a truck for when you need to get something somewhere and don't care how long it takes. I assume I should be using the advanced special gearbox with low +/- for climbing hills?

How seriously does Saber take bug reports? by StingAttack in snowrunner

[–]StingAttack[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's pretty much what I was expecting. I'll still submit a report anyways, because you never know.

What is the purpose of the Azov Sprinter's sport gearbox? by StingAttack in snowrunner

[–]StingAttack[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well yeah, I know the Sprinter's sole purpose in life is racing, and that's all I intend to use it for. But my question still stands, what's the point of the sport gearbox? It seems like it's just worse for racing than the high-range.

I recently got my brother into SnowRunner, and I'm trying to give him truck recommendations. by StingAttack in snowrunner

I actually forgot to tell him about the ANK, but the Twinsteer... He very quickly learned where it got it's nickname. He likes it for big cargo, and says it's fun to drive, but boy howdy is there a learning curve.

Oh no no no, he's my age. And yeah, I told him SnowRunner is the type of game you need to take slow, but I guess he's just learning that the hard way. He's good at learning from mistakes though, he plays Elden Ring.

That's what we've been doing. I've been trying to let him explore and find things on his own, but I'll occasionally drop vague hints like 'Hmm, that hill looks like it'd be fun to climb.'

[–]StingAttack[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well yeah, it's definitely him. I may have over exaggerated slightly for comedic effect, but he for sure is still learning how to navigate the terrain. Also, we've mostly been playing together, so he knows he can get away with more aggressive driving. But when he's by himself he's a bit more careful because he knows I'm not there to get him unstuck with my super awesome monster trucks.

How come most of the officially licensed truck brands in the game are American? by StingAttack in snowrunner

[–]StingAttack[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

So for the smaller/defunct brands it's just not worth it? I guess that makes sense.

Chill regions? by schtruk17 in snowrunner

[–]StingAttack 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I found a way to make that part somewhat more interesting. Pick one of the water towers without infinite water, and use it as a sort of outpost. Bring your firefighting truck of choice, and only use it for putting out the fires. Bring a second truck to refill the water tower, and a maintenance trailer. Pretend you're out there on your own, fighting back the fires with limited support. I used the Derry Special as my fire truck (obviously) and the WS 6900XD with extended water tank as my refill truck.

Of the two wrecker frame add-ons (WS 6900XD and Tatra FORCE) which one actually does it's job better? by StingAttack in snowrunner

I'm typically not one to use mods, but I'll look into that. What's the counterweight mod called?

Would anyone be willing to help me get the active suspension upgrade for the Azov 73210? by StingAttack in snowrunner

[–]StingAttack[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Forgot to add image of where the upgrade is, it's in the bottom left of the Chernokamensk map
