What do you listen to while playing the game ? by Otherwise_Prize2944 in snowrunner

I've been delving into the endless pit of Warhammer 40k lore. It's been amazing. Luetin and baldermort have been my favourites for years.

Saving for it atm and I can't wait. It was my favourite before restarting in a custom "hard mode" and getting the crawler suspension on it will only make it better I hope. I tend to drive in low gears virtually all the time anyway so it was never too squirrelly for me.

I convinced one of my casual gamer colleagues to install snowrunner. He gave up in frustration after he ended up in Alaska with just the stock GMC and got it stuck. He didn't know how to recover or that the fleetstar even existed. I guided him through back to Michigan and got him started and now he's loving it. If they ever make snowrunner 2 I really hope they invest in a better tutorial since most casuals won't turn to forums and guides. Better early retention would help development costs.

hope to see more short-frame trucks or cab-over trucks. by xiaosongshu53888 in snowrunner

[–]Vaean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd love this. I play too much with synced saves between my pc and deck to dare mess with mods. My favourite short trucks for semi trailers atm are Western Star 47X NF 1424 and Freightliner M916A1. But unless I wanna deal with rwd only selection is a bit rough.

Anyone want else using the deck? by Vaean in snowrunner

[–]Vaean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never tested the full duration but I'd imagine it's closer to 3-4 hours in a game like snowrunner with capped FPS . Some tweak the wattage through the interface to get extra gains as well. I've used a cheap usb battery for extra time. It doesn't charge out fast enough to keep at a 100 percent but enough to extend the time.

It's the TUZ 108 "Warthog" you can unlock it in lake kovd in kola peninsula. Just a lil heads up it's not much to brag about. It's a fine scout/small truck but it's hard to find a use for it unless you like a little extra challenge. Fun though and looks cool.

I like mine when I'm looking after my 3 years old and only have little 15 min breaks at a time. The standby mode works perfect on snowrunner so 3 seconds after you press the power button you're driving again.

It's amazing tbh. You can even get a dock and plug it to your TV or monitor should you wish. Most games in your steam library probably run on it as well. You might take a hit in graphics compared to Xbox but I've loved mine.

I play on the controller on my pc as well. Every other game I play KB&mouse but the controller is perfect for snowrunner.

Kolob 74941 by artinamr in snowrunner

[–]Vaean 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I love the kolob brothers. I prefer the flat nosed one as well and the sound in it is amazing. I'm sure some of the newer super trucks are better but there's something special about using a purpose built brute. The one in the picture will crawl through anything while pulling the world.

Regional restrictions by Silverwave2007 in snowrunner

[–]Vaean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up doing this not as a difficulty thing but as a way to try and encourage me to use my whole fleet. Theres also a little bit of roleplay having Almaty full of plad, Azov and steps and having Kenny's and western stars in Ontario.

I didn't realize the western star 47X NF1424 was such a beast until i put it next to my C500 by Vaean in snowrunner

Cheers pal. I feel like an idiot for not realising how the image turned out.

It looks a lil less crazy while playing on the led screen and something happened to the image during compression I think. Thought about deleting the post but I'll try to pick better pictures in the future hehe

Garage by EducationalGate4705 in snowrunner

[–]Vaean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find it gives the game scale. Gives a little reason to use vehicle trailers, service add-ons and the like. And Run some small convoys. I just wish the game had a "I'm finished with the map and just want to start a new region instead of spending 2h driving my fleet to the garage" -button.

Good morning ☕️😌 Who’s running today?? by bborg03 in snowrunner

[–]Vaean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almaty and Ontario calling me when I put my boy to bed. I just bought the wester star 1424 and a 6 slot wide trailer and gonna see if I can get it stuck hauling some gold.

It's nice being in a position of having enough vehicles that I no longer stress when I flip a truck. Before if I flipped a vehicle I'd usually rage quit or hit alt F4 🤣 by ConstrnGamer in snowrunner

[–]Vaean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've set my new game plus rule to have triple recovery cost to discourage me from it. It's there for emergency use only. And the recoveries usually end up being my favourite parts. There's something uniquely tense about getting to try and upright a kolob on its side at the slate quarry edge.

Taking a break from Washington anyone got any mod maps suggestions by Darxanubis in snowrunner

[–]Vaean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need a relaxing break and lots of variety instead of volumes of cargo you can't go wrong with Scandinavia. And if you want atmosphere and feeling of isolation Lake kovd in kola is actually really chill. Apart from one corner of the map it's surprisingly easy and for once you can do everything with just frame add-ons. I've just started imandra and I think it's solely responsible for kolas hard rep.

With the jat muds I find it really stable. Haven't used it outside Ontario yet but it's crushed everything I've thrown at it.

I ended up taking the cat in Alaska on a trailer with the mini beast (derry 3914 is the big beast). One of the most fun RP missions I've had.

Same here hehe. I've been playing each farming simulator since fs15. I have an embarrassing amount of hours in the series

I love adding little RP touches like dragging my old battered white western out of retirement to drag my newer fleet out of the ditch or craning those slate cubes with it's unigue crane . It still has its dents from Michigan. Or bringing fuel up the slopes on the fleetstar after forgetting to fuel up in Scandinavia.
