Point of interest animals: I was making a trip on the eastern side of the Zimnegorsk map at night. I here wolves howling then i see half a dozen sets of eyes glowing through the trees. Creepy but nice detail. Love it.
Hey dude, yeah I was driving through Michigan about a week or so ago and I suddenly noticed about 4 sets of glowing eyes looking at me that went as I turned my headlights towards them! It did creep me out a bit but in a really good way, instantly made the map feel more alive and yeah I thought that was a really nice little detail they’ve added! I like how it was never mentioned too so you just randomly notice it one night! It’s the little things like that that help make the overall game more complete and enjoyable 👍🏻
Haha thanks man I’m glad you’re enjoying the vids! I hate my own voice lol! And nah I’m not from Ireland, I’ve got a bit of a northern accent apparently form a few years living up that way! Anyway thanks dude I appreciate it 👍🏻!
Well thank you. Highly informative. I have found this vehicle, so when I do the mission to refuel it...I will have a truck to sell. The performance you showed convinced me of that. Peace all..til the winches come out. You do fine reviews sir.
Yeah to be honest I think I was a little harsh on the old beast because of it’s stupid chin lol! But while testing and making this vid it’s kinda grown on me and I don’t want to sell it now! I bet it makes a bloody good crane vehicle too! I’ve been using the white western star as my crane truck as it’s a bit crap hauling but this DAN can actually get just about anywhere and has a lot of power too! Personally I believe too that if you upgrade the winch that it upgrades the power of the crane a bit! Not much but I did a bit of testing and it seemed to lift other vehicles easier and higher before struggling!
It’s Mr Lone Wolf That is some cool info definitely going to have to look into it. I play on ps4 and I know that they will bring out more missions but I wish there was an option to be able to replay missions later in the game while still keeping your rank. Being able to use different vehicles that you’ve unlocked later in game to use for certain missions.
kster8413 yeah well with stock winch I could only lift the transtar thing with the crane winch until the front wheels left the ground, then needed to raise the crane arm to get it higher, but double motor heavy winch and the crane winch alone would lift the truck all the way to vertical but couldn’t really lift it off the floor but again raising the crane arm does that but it definitely appears to increase the crane winch power a bit! Yeah same here dude I want to reset all missions but keep my rank and preferably my trucks but if I had to sell them all and then reset and then buy them back that would be fine! I’ve just asked on a video by Focus if starting a new game resets everything, or does it just reset the missions and maps etc but you get to keep your rank and money! If they reply I’ll let you know! I can’t risk testing it myself as I don’t want to reset my rank etc but it would be cool if new game lets you keep it! If not though I believe they’ll add this option in soon since it’s the obvious way to let everyone keep enjoying their progress and playing without being only left with contests that you can replay again and again! I’ve almost done all missions now so maybe just maybe once I’ve done them all it might offer me the option to reset them all? If I find anything I’ll let you know 👍🏻
So I'm a big fan of the azov 72xxx it's the 10x10 it's got a crap approach angle. I've played 45 percent of the missions with it even though ppl hate it. I find it's unstoppable. So the don i thought this might be a nice hidden gem just decided to pull it out of storage. Thanks for the video man
This truck is one of my top 5 trucks in game, using it in Lake kovd. I like it as a refuelling and crane and for scouting. The chin part must be fixed as it don't get stuck alot, but I have used it in lake Kovd only. Good in snow.
I mainly use modded trucks but the DAN 96320 from what I found is a ideal logging truck I struggled to find a good logging truck but the mods that I have installed wouldn't cut the mustard but the DAN impressed me so now I use the Dan for long log carrying jobs. God Bless You All.
Haha I’ve got to mention the classics lol 👍🏻! Some of the even younger viewers probably don’t have a clue what I mean lol but I’m glad someone appreciated it 👍🏻!
Love the look of the truck and it's been high up on the list of things I want to get but the nose being so low seems to certainly be a bit of an issue.
Yeah it is isn’t it! I’m loving it too! They went above and beyond my expectations with this game, it’s a game a multi billion pound triple A company would be proud of! I feel like I easily got my money’s worth!
@@itsmrlonewolf Yeah they totally blew away my expectations, and I absolutely loved the first one. It's not often that games even meet expectations, let alone exceed them. Really couldn't be much happier with it. I think it's the progression system that makes it so engrossing. Having so many goals and milestones is a strength for sure. This game is massive with tons to do, and it's only going to get a lot bigger. Thoroughly impressed with the developers effort. The truck in this video would be perfect with one more front axle it seems.. Bit of a shame. Nice video I enjoyed it.
Nick H yeah same here dude! I really enjoyed mudrunner but could tell it wasn’t a polished game with unlimited funds to throw at it (which was fine) but the core idea was there and I really enjoyed it! This game has took every single thing and ramped it up massively and added loads of stuff! You could halve this game and still consider it a full game that’ll take 50-100 hours to complete! And I’m the same mate I’m so used to being let down by the giants like EA and activision that I had kind of set my bar a bit lower to allow for the fact it’s a smaller developer etc and yet they’ve shown the triple A companies how to deliver a full complete game packed with features and content! And yeah there’s still loads to get added, not to mention mods which will keep the game flooded with new vehicle set ups etc! Yeah same, very impressed with the developers efforts, unless something special comes along then I think it’s a top contender for game of the year! It certainly deserves a lot of credit for what they’ve achieved! Yeah exactly I like this DAN but that’s it’s weakness, 1 axle supporting that massive chin! But at least it’s free and sells for more than most trucks! That 8 wheel azov I compare it to is only about $80k so you could buy that and fully upgrade it and still have change left over! But I have to say it grew on me while making this vid and after it’s submarine capabilities I kinda wanna keep it now lol!
@@itsmrlonewolf Well said. So refreshing to see a "niche game" done to such a high level of quality. It's not about marketing or targeting demographics. It's about making a great game. It seems as though people are really enjoying the game, and Saber and Focus deserve all the success. Thanks for the good conversation, looking forward to more of your videos, cheers!
Nick H yeah exactly dude and hopefully this approach pays off well for them and shows some other companies that if you deliver a great game then the money will find its own way without being wrung out of everyone’s wallet! No worries dude and thanks man I appreciate it 👍🏻!
I'am convinced that the developers gave us a great game but they trolled us so hard, by basically making all of the starter cars flip over, and the ones that dont flip over, would be slow as all hell or worse... have highway tires😂 I want to specifically direct your attention to Pedro bay, as i like to call it TROLL BAY the developers have put like 3 different roads all slightly angled so that when you come along 1 road has a slanted very well paved iced road and leads to some uneven rocks you can actually see this at the beginning of pedro bay, and then as you go through there is a bend on the paved road near the pipeline where theres like a very well dugged in hole covered in snow, and the road pans in such a way that if you where dirving along it normally (the road is also found near a slight turn) with say offroad tires or mudtires or all terrain tires or basically any tires that dont ressemble chained tires and even wit hchained tires you would most likely end up in the hole as the slant on the road is so noticeably big, by the time you notice it you'll just be sliding everywhere honestly, the slant in the road is found a bit farther ahead of where you found the ank mk38 by the way, whoever of the developers thought that was a good idea id like to come knock on their door ive now got 2 sideboard trailers stuck inthe same bit of ditch. Also that 1 bit of road leading up to the service site between the service hub and the service site, in North port (1st map) alaska theres like this intentional mud bit where any truck you take there (quite literally any truck even the huge ass 73 inch tire ones) go through such a slow pace, you wish you where dead, as if that wasnt enough, once again between the service hub and the service site, after the mud pit they put a slightly slanted offroad section they actually put 2 in the same area the first one is not too bad if you take it easily enough... but the 2nd one They put a giant rock in the middle of the road (not a giant rock but like a normal road rock) my first time going through there was with the ANK MK38 and at the time because it was dark i dint see the rock, so the rock went underneath the truck it got caught the tiniest bit, and the truck just went rolling down, and i swear to god suddendly it doesnt feel like mother nature is at fault here, more like the developers and it feels plain and obvious, where as other areas just feel "natural" i feel some cheeky little bastard at the office had too much fun making this
Ernesto Chang haha yeah they’ve definitely added lots of little traps and all sorts purely to catch us out! I know the places you mean on Pedro bay because I’ve crashed at all of them lol! The one near the entrance with the leaning ice road I crashed one of those massive special trailers there and couldn’t get it back out so had to reset the whole mission! They’ve definitely made sure that no matter how careful you are something will make you roll or crash etc and make it turn into a rescue mission lol!
@@mrorlov2706 I dont use scouts their purpose in the game is not highly regarded as the best use, the only one i do use is the TUZ 420 tatarin and that is reserved specifically for rescuing huge trailers when they flip over (as usual)
The Dan is one of my favorite heavy haulers. The second Derry Longhorn is better, but fookin ugly to look at. It pains me to say it, but the Russian trucks look better, and most perform better than their American and Canadian counterparts. Too bad they couldn’t get the rights to use the actual trucks they’re based on. Kamaz, Ural, etc would have got some good advertising.
Yeah I really love the sheer power of this thing! It’s grown on me since making this lol but the nose hitting too much is an issue that if it had raised suspension and bigger tyres it might help! I’m not selling it though but I don’t use it all that much if I’m honest! The Azov 5319 is basically a better more practical version of this that goes a lot faster too!
@@itsmrlonewolf also the main version is the Baz 6909 ( 8x8 ) but there was too much 8x8s in the game so the devs took the 6x6 version( baz 64202 , i am not russian so i dont know details )
Sky cloud studio oh right that’s pretty interesting and makes a lot of sense really! Thanks for the info dude I appreciate it 👍🏻! I kind of like how some vehicles aren’t as good or as good as they could be, keeps a nice bit of variety to it but yeah I can see why they make an 8 wheel version in real life lol! Still I like it, I use it here and there for things
Possibly dude, I’ll have a little play around but it depends what the footage comes out like, to be honest it looks like a lot of trucks would just have their wheels either side of the river, I could do it so at least 1 set is in but I think they’ll walk it like it’s not there as it’s so shallow, but I also have that shallow water part a minute or so before but I’ll see dude, I’ll bare it in mind and it may appear in a future video 👍🏻
