newpersn Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 I'm only getting basic jobs. Nothing exciting yet. I've had forklifts but no cars. I'm only level 4/5 atm
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) it gets better as you level up. I personally max out long distance first, offers the best paying jobs in the long run, but there are so many different things. ADR should be a last thing for most people with eco driving, but LDR+ECO driving = massive fuel savings (I am at 8% fuel saving so dont need to stop for fuel anywhere near as much as I did) Should add my 8% is engine alone, when I factor in eco driving, will bump to around 43% when it maxes.

featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 what did you level up out of curiosity?
newpersn Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 I think ive done Eco, Long distance and one of the hazards
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Nice. Eco + Engine Economy = great fuel savings, maxed out it can hit around 50% economy!

featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Dont forget to sign up to https://www.worldoftrucks.com/en/ They have a few good bits on there (you need the full game to sign up for anyone playing the demo)
abillybob Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Ok I have tried to hold my self back from commenting here but it seems to be such a well discussed topic, is this game amazing or something am I missing something here I thought it was just driving trucks which can't be that much fun surely!
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Try it...you'll like it. lol Its more than that, it is building a trucking empire, which is fun in it self
Sunnyknight Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Haven't even bothered with getting a loan off the bank or any of those hippdy dips. Just drive, and drive, and drive, and sleep and drive and drive and drive
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Thats the best way forward, if you do 3 or 4 journeys a day, it will take maybe 2 weeks to get your own truck (and thus, your own profit), but with a bank, you are paying off for up to 150 days...which is a pain!
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Many on other forums disagree with me on that, but its how you wish to play it.
Sunnyknight Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Given up. Trying to set up a company is a pain in the .................................................... <<< tons of foul language there. Seriously, what is the ............................................ point in having hired drivers who just stay idle. ..................................................... idiots.
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Do you have trucks for the drivers? They wont do anything if you don't have a truck for them...
Sunnyknight Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 I had 3 trucks for 3 drivers Each had their pic and the truck behind Started a job for the company.... I was the one driving for 4 game days
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Have you raised their skills? Mine made me a loss until he levelled up enough for 1 point in long distance, 1 in fragile and 1 in high value. They then started to bring in around £2k profit per drive, but they are wreckless, so just standard cabs with economy engines to save on fuel costs.
featured_spectre Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 no, but there are lots of smaller dealers, they have slightly better prices on base models, but more expensive upgrades...it works out the same overall
