Went LIVE late 30th. It is actually very enjoyable for an Alpha and stable. It was fun trying to offload at Metz on a quick run from Paris as about 6-7 people were trying to unload which meant a queue formed as people waited to unload.

I have had no lack of jobs. Especially between Paris and Metz and also Paris and Dover. From Dover I could go to London or Southampton or back over the channel.

Was anyone else stuck in that Jam at Stokes in Leige yesterday that the admins had to come sort out?

Was over 30 people involved in some way or another xD

 

[Samuel Fuller]

[Ron Squire]

Looks like its down

 

[Samuel Fuller]

Busy on the roads this evening. The server does take a while to connect but if you give it time it pulls through.

 

[Ron Squire]

how long does it take to connect?

 

[Samuel Fuller]

sometimes 4-5 mins its longer if you have already been on before as its trying to sync the time in with the server I think.

 

[Ron Squire]

i started a new game and success i am on, but need to only do the opening mission, but iam always late even though i am 1 minute away from destination and as a result i never get any jobs after that and i cant drive, so what should i do

 

[Yuri]

Does anyone want to have a trip across europe today? Can't do promods so we'll have to go into England I guess

 

[Ron Squire]

i wish i could but i have to find out how to actually play multiplayer without creating a new profile and being late to do a job event though it is a minute away and i arrive under a minute
