Just discovered your channel while searching for takes on this truck. First off, fantastic execution. It’s clear that you spent the proper time to review the truck fairly. Second, your point about level req really hit home as I’d never used it during my first trip through the vanilla game. I recently started a NG+ and chose to retain my Lvl 30 rank. Bought the truck in Black River and can confirm it’s extremely useful in the early stages of a save.

So glad that NG+ came out. Now players can use trucks they never used before and utilize them wherever. I bet it crushes Black River:)

This is straight up my favorite truck. If I need freight hauled in crappy terrain, this is my number 1. I just have to plan the trips for fuel routes and have a backup supply on hand.

Hey Nathan, thx for another great video! Also, I have to say, since I found your channel I changed most of my perspectives of the trucks and my way to play in Snowrunner, and I just love the way that you always show a good side of the "bad" trucks in your reviews, and because of that I changed most of my strategies and decicions in my hard mode playthrough and it's being amazing.

@@NProvince Considering just the base game, maybe the cover should of been one of the KOLOB's or the Derry 45? The cover vehicle on MudRunner was that huge Russian 8X8 missile launcher truck, which was one of the hardest trucks in the game to get as picking it from the start used up all 5 out of 5 stars (MudRunner had kinda a points system so you could say pick multiple lower powered truck, or 1 really good truck (4 stars) and 1 crapper, or in the case of the cover truck being able to pick only that truck for a map). And as far as finding it in-game (you could use in-game trucks to help expand your fleet), only 1 or 2 maps even had this truck on it. So while no truck is necessarily had to get in MudRunner, since picking this one meant no room for support vehicles, you could say this one was the hardest to get. So if we apply that to SnowRunner that the cover truck is one of the hardest to get. Then it would be the KOLOB on the Russian side and maybe Derry 45 on American covers.

While swapping out the useless utility box for a loader would have been great, that is what the SD is for. The SD stands for "Severe Duty" and is the chassis style that Freightliner used to mount extra equipment such as the loader cranes. We have a number of log loader Freightliner trucks, and they are all the SD models. The nickname for a Freightliner truck is Freight Shaker. Not because they ride rough, as most would claim, but because it just fits phonetically, heh.

Great review! It’s annoying it can’t have the fuel semi trailer since this sounds like it would be one of the perfect trucks to operate as a mobile fuel base far out of nowhere. It would fix 2 of its cons already: always a trailer attached on the saddle so it’s more stable, and a lot of fuel as cargo so it’s fuel consumption and tank size aren’t that important.

@NProvince

Жыл бұрын

Thank you! I agree it would be nice to be able to haul that. It would open it up to be used as capable fuel support in quite a few places.

To be fair, these trucks in real life are usually in a convoy that includes a fuel tanker, so I’m not surprised about it’s fuel economy and tank size

The conclusion is the same one I came to the hard way with the P16. I had seen and heard all the good stuff about it, so when I first went to Drummond, I made a special trip just to unlock it. I proceeded to try and have it do everything under the sun. Unsurprisingly, it failed at a lot of it. I ended up using other trucks instead, and lamented on Reddit the P16's underperformance. Somebody pointed out that the P16 was purpose-built to haul heavy logs in muddy terrain, and that asking it to do other things wasn't really the point. After that, I started using it just for log work. Lo and behold, it started performing quite well. I still think it's a little underpowered (but the bigger part of the issue is Snowrunner's total lack of a torque mechanic), but remembering that some trucks are only designed to do one thing is a very helpful grounding tool.

Very good points made in this comment. I think acepting what a vehicle is rather than throwing it away is a better move. Like you explained it grounds you. The issue is sadly that everyone wants a "do it all" truck that is the best leading to most people playing a select few trucks. In truth, when I start leaning toward that mindset, I have to actively make myself put effort into trucks that fall into a certain niche. Its really nice to use them as so. Great comment!

The lack of tire selection is kind of unnecessary. I edited the files to allow every truck to have access to every type of tire, but left the max size stock. This greatly improves the game without breaking it in my opinion. Some sizes are just way too small, but that's part of the fun.

I wish they would buff all the american trucks, it's one of the reason I've taken a break from the game. It's just so boring to use always the same trucks because if you use a different truck you get punished. btw I enjoyed using the M196A1 on the 2nd map of yukon for heavy transport.

Man I wish Saber would fix the Gooseneck trailer.

As for the truck this is another I sadly don't use much, I think I'm just not fond of the freightliners in this game to be honest. Out of my 3 saddle low truck options, I have to say the Navistar and Derry 31 comes long before this truck.

@@NProvince I don't think it's necessarily a clearance issue. The Step-Deck has low clearance but with the way it's programmed it often tends to act like a sled in that it slides over humps, rocks, etc. The Gooseneck does not share the Step-Deck sled like properties. The Gooseneck, especially in the rear is constantly getting caught, hooked on stuff, digging in, etc. The hit boxes are probably realistic for the shape of the trailer. But it makes for terrible use in game. It'd be better if they just programmed it with a flat bottom or something so it slides easier.
