This game is not a racing game. This is more of an off road simulation game that is real in depth with how your vehicle handles the rough terrain. You drive through an open world map accepting missions and contracts to earn money. You can also play it multiplayer and that’s one of the best features. If your an off road, trail riding fan you may want to give it a try but it’s not an arcade racer in least bit.

Better than I'd hoped for!

I'll start by saying, this game won't be for everyone (though, it should be...) If you like fast paced, shooter, run n' gun games ONLY, then this probably won't be to your liking... On the other hand, I enjoy those types of games too - but I have a deep fetish for big rigs as well. Add the realistic physics, the challenge of trying to complete the tasks (which I find to be easier than the last games, unfortunately), the real-name truck licensing... It's a must have. I play a lot of trucking simulation games and this one let's you go where those ones don't... off road. It's doesn't have a huge following compared to GTA and Last of Us, but hoping enough of us like these games to keep them going for a while. Plenty to keep you busy and does just enough to keep you wanting to earn for that "better truck." I've not reached the end yet, but I don't need to in order to tell you this is absolutely a good game. My only gripe (you knew there would be one), is the amount of times I've seen it crash on PS4 Pro... Could be my original drive or could be something else, but sure wish a fix was in the works... Game loads fast enough, but a hassle when you're in the zone and it kicks you out. If you like driving (not racing), trucking, or off-roading, I'd suggest picking this one up as soon as possible - hours of challenge for an awesome price.

This game has a lot of potential but it seems to be lacking the fun factor that I was hoping for.
The graphics are good but the actual driving physics aren't realistic. They did a decent job with going through mud but on dry payment, not even close. The Chevy truck that you can get is slow as mud. When you floor the gas. It barely takes off and takes forever to reach 30 mph. This makes traveling from one location to another very mundane and boring.
The game also suffers from some glitches that hopefully will be patched soon.
So all in all, I was pretty disappointed with the game and probably wouldn't have bought it if I would have played it first. It gets boring pretty quick.
The disc was also scratched on the very edge from where it came loose inside the case during shipping. I was going to complain about it but it doesn't seem to affect the game play, so I just let it go.

I was shown a trailer for this game from a friend and did not really put any more thought to it. Around the release date of this game I seen a couple of reviews/gameplay and was really interested, so much that I purchase every DLC for it. I really enjoyed the challenges of finding the correct vehicle for the task, the planning a head. I would search out a task and see if there was anything I could take with me so I could knock out another task that was on route. I played on a ps4 pro, before the patches and bug fixes were released. Ive had to restart the game twice before being able to beat it. Sometimes I would just listen to a podcast and get lost in this game.

Extremely large open environment! You might never finish everything. Very fun after you figure out the game. You get stuck often and need to be good at planning ahead. Highly recommend!!!

Offroad simulator where you are a big rig trucker trying to deliver goods through many different types of terrain and weather. Not a racing game, more of a simulation so expect slower gameplay.

The tasks are fun. You don't have to stay on the roads. The winch is a great tool, it can be used automatically or you can pick the location on your truck and the object to winch to.

Ok game - gets a little tedious getting stuck in mud or trying to see really where all the roads are at night - but the 14 year old seems to like it - plays it once in a while - but not as much as other games
