new big rig over the road racing update just dropped boys
FINALLY!
glad they finally made it out of early access, ive been following its development since pre-alpha
Hell yeah
I actually played something like this game back in 2011 on the early samsung reading tablets, the only difference is that on the early version you were locked to a small town (or it may have just been me not making it past the tutorial). Otherwise the graphics, gameplay, and almost the name (the old name was very similar but not the same as the current name) are exactly the same as i remember, only you have 100 million for whatever reason. For some reason i was never able to find it on the same device again and it didn't show up on the app store by the same name. I also distinctly remember the yellow padlocks on the roads out of the town
That's literally what I thought when I saw it, this has to have been made by the same team dude
I love the fact how they were saying that $4 per gallon was expensive... if only they knew what the future held in store

The lore of the game is that America initiated a nuclear war and 600 years later the survivors are picking up the pieces in an ongoing nuclear winter.
Essentially what the Three Mile Island reactor did to Detroit ‘Murica become Detroit
@@shinsenshogun900 three mile island is in Pennsylvania, the accident that took place there while bad was minor enough that its sister reactor at the same site ran until 2019, and the history of Detroit is more complicated than being ruined by a single event
@@shinsenshogun900 Three Mile Island at the peak of it's radioactivity was outputting only an 1/8 of a lethal dose of radiation
@@ICantThinkOfAFunnyHandle I find it funny how most people are too uninformed about stuff like Three Mile Island (They probably watched the Netflix documentary and thought it was telling nothing but the truth, since why would it dramaticize such a thing?) that they think its actually true, to the point they like their comment more than both you and Absolut combined.
@@airplanemaniacgaming7877 most of the reason the three mile island incident was so historical was not only because this is was the first nuclear meltdown (which simply put didn't output enough radiation into the environment to be considered anywhere near dangerous.) but mostly the fallout of how poor their PR strategy was. This incident is probably one of the biggest reasons why nuclear reactors have basically fallen out with the public and why most of them have started to be decommissioned.
Random fun game dev fact, the really weird stretched headlights thing is because some developer in his infinite genius decided to use whats called Vertex lighting, where you calculate the lighting per vertex on the 3d models instead of the modern standard of Pixel lighting, where lighting is calculated per pixel on the screen. Vertex lighting can look okay if its a room with a static light, and enough vertices to make it look decent, something which early 2000's games did because its better on performance, but they did it on open fields, today, with barely any vertices...
Since it was very clearly originally a mobile game it makes a bit more sense-it was just a few years ago that pixel lighting was expensive for lots of lower-end devices. Definitely looks awful here tho
@@porglezomp7235 sounds like the game was hijacked or something
Also the missing anisotropic filtering, which they called heat haze or something.
@@tylern6420this PC game is a very bad copy and port of Truck Simulator USA its way better than this but it could be better

0:59 I can't believe nobody noticed that Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming have merged together into one mega-state.
the way it was meant to be
Tbh if that happened in real life no one would notice
All the states are severely deformed too and all the cities are in completely wrong places
But then the creator failed into being correct by putting Vancouver BC where Vancouver WA is lol
And it's still smaller then texas
8:00 Damn, They actually predicted the current gas prices.
Or the sign was ripped from California before the $6+ we have now, back when $4.50 was a sweet deal. lol
It's much lower now
This game is either a fever dream made by someone from the most remote most impoverished part of the former Soviet Union or someone's beautiful shitpost game and either way it's goddamn amazing!
Those 2 categories aren't mutually exclusive.....
Oh my god I remember playing this game on my ipad. There were fines for skipping weigh stations and running lights but we solved it by just driving on the opposite side of the road. Also the mobile version definitely had multiplayer.
bruuuhhh same. it was definitely something.
That would have been a scream just with how jank this game is
From I start playing ats I couldn't go back
Can't be that this game is also made by ovilex software

24:28
@27:45 Given all the "quality" of the rest of the game, I am legitimately surprised the rain was stopped going through a short tunnel.
15:50 the airport with: • 2 Metroliners • 2 Skyhawks • 0 runways • 1 prison guard tower
27:57 "I don't recognize the bodies in the tunnel" Absolutely amazing commentary.
I think the reason why the map is so messed up is because they made the game world first and then made the map for it, so they had to put the cities on the map exactly where they appeared in the game world, leading to that mess.
I like how they gave you the option to have it "carrer". Would be better to have a "carrest" option too though. Driving games need options for the amount of car and this game has it.
I started laughing when some one said “try reversing quickly” I completely understood that reference
21:03 fun fact, those are supposed to be overground heating pipes, and they do that up/down thing in Real Life too because of thermal expansion! here in germany they are pretty common
We have them near Temelín
Now you can do Big Rigs, maybe you could compare the two with a panel of judges and discover which one is "better"
Does RATS have infinite speed in reverse?
@@samt3412 tbf super mario 64 and half life 2 have infinite speed reverse
" *American* truck simulator" Available locations: Winnipeg, Montreal, Mexico City. Is America planning a bit of an... expansion? Should I be worried?
no.
Yes, we are. No, you shouldn't be worried.
Hide your children.
You do understand that America is the continent? I know American geography is hard for non-Americans but America does not mean "USA"
@@peachypet808 You do understand most people call the USA america for simplicity? Not everything needs to be called by its proper name.
the map at the start is accurate, it represents the average american's knowledge in geography
This game is almost as good as Disney's Treasure Planet for Playstation!
"Realistic American Truck Simulator"? R.A.T.S.? Are we gonna celebrate a birthday bash?
Mom can I have American Truck Simulator? No, we have American truck simulator at home. _American Truck Simulator at home:_
thank you man, im in a bad situation mentally and this helped
At 15:50 that is obviously the Ion Canon the rebels used on Hoth in episode V.
Actually played this on my phone like last year, feels like a fever dream watching this video, basically my experience lmao
"American Truck Simulator" creator of game messing up city locations. yeah seems fitting.
To be fair, there is a Vancouver, WA. It is a suburb of Portland that is on the other side of the Colombia river.
I don't know what's more impressive, the fact that this video is half an hour long, or the fact that I watched the full thing
Neither are very impressive. Unless you are debilitated by your attention span.
I love how they ran out of room and so just put New York right where Philly would be
Vale's best videos are with his crew. Lynx, Maivi and Novel are funny AF
Lynx is by far the funniest tho
Working just well enough to be barely playable, while also having an extreme amount of hilarious glitches. 10/10 game of the year right here
God ive been binge watching your entire youtube channel and its such a fun channel, i cant wait to watch this one. U guys are funny , keep up valefisk :)👍🏻
As an American truck driver I endorse this game as totally 1% accurate and am Definitely not being held hostage by the dev
18:23 Ah yes, the famous Albuquerque space-time rift.
if i remember correctly, this game has a glitch were the acceleration of the truck is infinite in reverse. I recall reading that some one surpassed light speed after reversing for a hour
Different game
1:02 Interesting alternate history scenario. Clearly Canada has eaten the New England Area, the northern plains, and the Cascadia region while the Dutch probably retained the colony new Netherlands in modern day New York State, causing the British to have to set their “New York” name down in the next best place, on the Chesapeake bay. Also Spain must’ve done some wacky shit with their colonies, which were most likely kept by them as were many others. The USA must’ve rose much later in this world compared to in our timeline. The Gulf of Mexico apparently doesn’t exist either, so the tectonic plates are different too. Blessed or cursed alternate history scenario? You pick. Also 15:54 IS ACTUALLY an accurate depiction of the average American muscle car driver trying to show off.
I love how they accurately put the U.S. Capitol Building in our capital city, New York City
No longer is he content to simply piss himself, now he's throwing up in his own mouth. I shudder to imagine the end point of this troubling trend
I love how the devs didn't even try to not make it look like a copy of American truck simulator.
“You reviewed this game on September 11, 2021” “Carrer” After these two I already know we’re in for something.
"Daddy, Daddy, I wanna play American Truck Simulator!" "We have American Truck Simulator at home!" American Truck Simulator at home:
I hope if the creator of this game ever sees this video, they won’t be upset. Cause yeah we’re making fun of it but it’s also insanely funny and funny to see what can happen. Also it was prolly only made by one person and it’s kinda crazy how much game there is for a small game :]
The lights looked so weird because they were using vertex lighting instead of per pixel lmao. That is GOOOOOFY
"Mom, can we have american truck simulator?" "No, we have american truck simulator at home" American truck simulator at home:
The Vancouver one makes me die because it’s semi accurate. There’s a city in southern Washington called Vancouver too lol
This was such a blast to watch, from start to finish. This really was the gift that keeps on giving.
This feels like ohio
Its been so long since a video literally made me cry tears of laughter. Just...amazing.
i love the thought that this is some messed up world that is so broke the US has one taxidermized police officer to keep the speed limit enforced on one road
"Why are the gas prices so expensive?". I wish those prices were a joke :(
1:28 *We did it, guys! We won the war with Canada and took all of their important cities!* *Sound the battle cry: MURICA!*
This is either a scam or the greatest parody on Steam
33:40 Nice going, you insulted the sun and it left.
1:44 you know the game is good when a word is in the wrong tense and lots of words are misspelled.
Can confirm, Chicago is right next to NYC and we often have turf wars.
"Can we add the minecraft cave noise in post?" Me, vaguely aware of what's being said while playing minecraft: "....Why are there cave noises in the sky?"
Good ol' glitchy simulator games.
Radio: "We warn about a lunatic on the wrong side of the road." Vale: "A lunatic!? There are hundreds of them!"
Its like the big rigs over the road racing of the modern era. Except with functioning slopes, birdges, AI, grammer and a maximum reverse speed that doesn't exceed the speed of light.
Fun fact : There actually is a Vancouver in Washington. So hey, they got that one right! Sorta...
Can you get a mission, teleport to the location, and complete it without driving? I feel like that would be so damn funny if that's the case
cant believe colorado has conquered utah and replaced our capitol with denver 2
The actual game description on steam "Travel across USA as king of the roads, where you are a trucker who delivers important cargo across impressive distances! USA Truck Simulator offers everything a trucker’s heart desires!" not to mention it's part of a bundle called "Success Games #2"
"One day I caved..." 9/11 20th anniversary 🤔 A coincidence, I'm sure.
no pistol shots in road rage accidents, not american enugh.
The official driving simulator for SWIFT transportation.
This is literally the greatest spin-off of American truck simulator😂
I love how some of the game actually works like the car ai
My father was a trucker in the USA. I lost him to the infinite out of bounds );
8:00 and now those are actual gas prices
"I don't recognize the bodies in the tunnel" might be the best veiled reference I've heard recently
I know nobody cares, but at 15:00 that's Snails House playing on Rhythm faintly in the background, one of my fav. artists. Heavily recommend and hopefully helping whatever rando out there is searching for a source.
I could imagine a desert bus video would be top tier
A worthy spiritual sequel to Big Rigs. You are winner.
8:07 considering recent events this joke is even funnier
Well the successor of Big Rigs. How splendid.
Arguably Vale’s greatest video of all time
Ought to check out, "Big Rigs Over the Road Racing" if you want the definitive trucker experience
ITS TRUCK MONTH!!!!
Why do i feel like this would be even better vr
26:51 Average Canadian Highway 8 months of the year.
oh dear, you made me shed a tear or two tooo hillarious
This was the most terrifying experience; very realistic
I think the weird headlight behavior is because the headlights are a gourad light source, which uses gradients between polygon verticies. This works fine when you are in an environment with small and regularly spaced polygons, not so much in wide open spaces that are trying to use as few polygons as possible.
i like how vale is confused/amused by the fact that he has to use the reverse gear to go in reverse
I remember Simon & Lewis playing this on "Trucking Tuesday"
Main menu misspells "Career" as "Carrer" This game is off to a good start.
It wont be long until Vale plays every truck simulator for each country
I'm gonna tear up, this is the greatest looking game, alr 2 seconds in the video, let's goo
I like how for a second one of them acted briefly shocked that Vancouver was in Washington when there is a Vancouver in Washington (just north of Portland Oregon so its actually too far north but I do realize that the game probably meant Vancouver Canada)
22:10 "Penality", a Mortal Kombat fatality where your character gets sent to a maximum security prison in Wyoming.

The fact that this game doesn't just crash to desktop immediately is a miracle.
