Top 10 mejores modificaciones para el simulador de camiones estadounidenses

Advertising deals aside, it's relatively rare for real brands to pop up in open-world games. PS2 game The Getaway, set in London, featured Pizza Hut, WH Smiths, Jessops and more. También te permite secuestrar un camión de telecomunicaciones británico y disparar a una estación de policía, que tuvo que ser retirada en ediciones posteriores porque BT no estaba muy contento con eso.

This Real Companies, Gas Stations and Billboards mod takes a leaf out of The Getaway. Not the shooting up police stations bit, but it inserts various real-world companies into the game. Walmart, UPS, Shell and many others get a look in, adding an extra dash of authenticity to American Truck Simulator.

Realistic Truck Physics

Realistic Truck Physics is another way to make American Truck Simulator more true-to-life. Eso puede sonar como una pesadilla si has estado atrapando tu trailer en cada objeto del juego, pero no está diseñado específicamente para dificultar el juego.

En cambio, se centra en gran medida en la suspensión mejorada del vehículo y otros cambios que no le pondrán el juego a la cabeza, pero complacerán cabezas serias de camiones. The same mod is also available for Euro Truck Simulator 2 if you're also driving your way around Europe.

Ludicrously Long Trailers

This mod, on the other hand, could make your trucking journey hell. But if you're up for a challenge, particularly if you're streaming your journey, Ludicrously Long Trailers will fit the bill. Ever seen those trucks with two trailers? This mod dials things up to 11.

“Have you ever felt like your trailers just aren't quite long enough because you can't block multiple intersections simultaneously? Do you want to have a turning radius wider than a jumbo jet and experience the sheer thrill of having a 0-60 time measured in hours? Ludicrous Transport LLC has your masochistic needs covered!”, boasts the blurb.

El único inconveniente es que este mod maravillosamente ridículo no funciona en el modo multijugador, por lo que no tendrá la alegría de trolear a otros jugadores con su carga absurdamente larga.

Realistic Brutal Graphics and Weather

Despite the name, Realistic Brutal Graphics and Weather doesn't turn American Truck Simulator into a tornado-filled hellscape, where your trailer is in danger of getting annihilated by ball lightning. What it does do is give the game's weather system a visual overhaul, including some new skyboxes.

So, for the most part, you'll notice the weather is a lot more realistic; that includes different fog intensities that could leave you feeling like you're trucking through Silent Hill or The Mist (without the latter's deeply disturbing ending). And best of all, it doesn't require a higher-powered machine than vanilla ATS.

Slow Traffic Vehicles

Ever been on the road and got stuck behind a tractor, garbage truck or some other slow-moving vehicle? Este mod de vehículos de tráfico lentos aporta esa experiencia al simulador de camiones estadounidense y, aunque puede parecer ligeramente masoquista, este mod debería darle vida a su viaje de conducción de camiones.

You can even find yourself stuck behind a combine harvester and while overtaking is absolutely an option, you may not be the only one stuck. On the flip-side, there's also the joy of roaring past while the opposite lane is packed.

Optimus Prime

I've got good news and bad news for Transformers fans. The bad news is that there isn't a single Optimus Prime skin in American Truck Simulator . La buena noticia es que hay ocho, y aunque este mod de G1 Optimus Prime es mi favorito, también hay trabajos de pintura para las encarnaciones de películas de Optimus Prime.

You will have to purchase the appropriate truck, in this case a Freightliner FLB, then apply the paint job, but it's worth the outlay. You could, of course, cheat but that's the kind of thing only a Decepticon would do.. right?

More Realistic Fines

Finally, this More Realistic Fines mod makes breaking the law a little easier. En lugar de recibir una multa por cada transgresión, en realidad puede salirse con la suya con exceso de velocidad y correr una luz roja si no es capturada en la cámara o por un oficial de policía. De acuerdo, es horriblemente, horriblemente peligroso, hasta el punto en que su camión podría ser aniquilado por otros ocho ruedas, pero si elige correr ese riesgo, eso depende de usted. Tu monstruo.
