Love the series. Love the West Balkan Expansion. I keep thinking I'll put out a series but I've got the beta of FM and figure - that's a bit much. So maybe later. In the mean time - another awesome video my friend! As soon as the DLC came out I knew I was going to want to watch for you and your series on ETS!😀
Thanks, Stewart! I can certainly understand how it'd be hard to divide time between FM and ETS2. FM is a huge world of focus, and such a great time! I hope you are enjoying it. It looks like you've got a couple of other series going as well, with OOTP and the As no less!
@@ZillaBlitzPC I am lol - I think its the best FM I've ever played. Grated I've only played about 3 years or so but still. And yeah, OOTP is going - well, not great but I knew it'd be a huge rebuild. But I have enjoyed very much the series and ETS. I even keep thinking one day I'll try Snow Runner again but I'm not brave enough for that just yet lol
Stunning drive! I've been driving to the south of you around Montenegro/Albania and there is some spectacular scenery there. There are definitely hidden roads too, I found 3 in a single drive!
Oh, good to know, I think we're heading in that direction with the Holiday Coastline achievement. And I will start to open my eyes for hidden roads now too. Most excellent stuff, thanks.
I use the first pronunciation of the Split, but don't know if that is the correct one :) Split is the only place in the West Balkans that i know something about. We have same situation as Belfast, Ireland. The Split has shipyard knows as Brodosplit, since 1922. There may not be as famous ship as Titanic...atleast for majority of people. In the late 80's and early 90's, partly during the Croatian War of Independence, a 4 almost identical cruiseferries were built. Quite large at the time, but not the largest. All of them still above the surface. In the Baltic Sea area they are refered as "The Split Sisters" as all of them were operational around same area. Now only 2 of them; M/S Gabriella and M/S Crown Seaways still in regular use in the "cold waters", Gabriella between Finland and Sweden, Crown Seaways between Denmark and Normay. M/S Mega Victoria is in operation between France, Italy and Corsica. Previously was operation between Finland and Sweden under the name of M/S Amorella but was sold not too long ago. M/S Isabelle has been stationary in Tallinn Estonia some time as it was/is used as floating hotel for ukranians. Apparently has been chartered to Canada for 7 years and may leave soon. Isabelle also was one of the many ships that rushed to help survivors from the sank M/S Estonia back in 1994. Isabelle rescued 17 of the 137 survivors.
That's a very cool story about Split, thanks for sharing. It's amazing to think about all the history in these places, and how each ship or set of ships has its own fascinating stories. Thanks!
Good to see Colorado winning through and the other match up is a hard one as I loved both states but did end up picking one. This DLC is amazing and shows the great work SCS put into their content and the views wow spectacular and way to avoid a sticky toll situation there you got lucky with nobody in your rear. That 90 park even I would have managed ha ha it was so easy, which means another perfect delivery 2/10 on a roll. Great episode mate!
I know, right? That was barely a 15 XP parking spot. Maybe 40 XP. But certainly not 90XP. Anyway, that makes up for some of the really hard 40XP spots. I'm curious to see how Montana does against Texas. :)
You were so lucky at that toll that you didn't have cars behind you 😂. That could've screwed perfect delivery right up. The perfect delivery Gods were smiling on you. 2/10. Good work
In retrospect, very much a yes on that one. It's unusual that a car didn't pull up in the time that I was being confused and lost. That could have totally messed up the delivery. I probably would have backed up and pushed the car out of the way, but that would have triggered a damage fine, for sure. We could use a bit of luck in this! :)
Oh my goodness you did the same thing I did and picked a car thru instead of the truck one and had to back out....lol. I did the exact same thing in the same spot. First time I've really played ETS and the roads are crazy narrow. I out did you in wrecks in just 3 deliveries....lol. Great video.
Haha! I just couldn't see anything to indicate that that lane was for cars only, but it might have been the position of the sun? Not sure. But yes, the roads in ETS2 are crazy narrow, especially switching from ATS. Really important to hug the outside edges on many turns so you don't clip guardrails, signs, curbs, whatever on the inside. Great that you're giving it a new shot. I think you'll really like the nimbleness of the European trucks once you get used to them. You can turn in such tight radii compared to the US trucks.
@@ZillaBlitzPC Tight radis yes, and you need every bit of it. Above the thru point I found they have pictures over each thru, car or truck pictures instead of the red or green lights. But yes they are hard to see, I had to get pretty close to see the difference.
Keep in mind there's two WoT events right now. One for Road to the Black Sea and one for West Balkans. A lot of jobs will take you between the two and give you credit toward both.
D'oh! I didn't realize that. I thought it was that deliveries in either area counted for the one event. But yes, most definitely, that would make the most sense to zig zag back and forth between the West Balkans and Road to the Black Sea cities. That'll reduce the deliveries by about half, for sure. Thanks!
Most definitely, I'm excited to get back to Iceland. I want to drive around in the Balkans for a while more first, though. Lots to see here, and I'd like to reach level 36 for that last skill point. :)
There is a quarry in norway. Squirrel drove there

Yeah, the lane width was a pretty good giveaway too, but it definitely fooled us. :)@@NerdyNanaSimulations
Finally, someone who completes the achivements
I definitely enjoy tracking them down. I think they add a short-term goal element to the game, which I really enjoy.
@@ZillaBlitzPC agree ! have fun!
I've never played the game, BUT, I think even _I_ could do that parking job! ;-)
Hahaha! Yes, for sure. That has to be the easiest 90XP parking job I've ever seen. :)
@@ZillaBlitzPC maybe they just mixed up the 90 and 40 parking spots or something...
Very possible, yes. Or just mis-evaluated this one. :) @@pterrok5495

i did orient express in one day. The 'secret' is to have all types of trailers. mount each of them one by one and search for jobs until you find one.
trailers which provide most amount of jobs: low bed, curtainsider, container carier and insulated
Yes, these are great tips, thanks!
you can countinue your promods carrer. Promods has come back
Oh, good to know, thanks!
After a 4-hour ordeal hooking up my G920, I discovered that I can't drive as well as Mike. My hubris has bitten me again.
I bet you'll improve quickly. It takes a bit of time to adjust to a new wheel. You got this. :)
I reached level 31 in ats so I was able to reward my self buying a max speced Volvo VNL.
Congrats, nice work! And a nice truck too. :)
I put wall-E in my truck
Zilla blitz, will you play promods when 2.68 releases?
Most definitely, I'm excited to get back to Iceland. I want to drive around in the Balkans for a while more first, though. Lots to see here, and I'd like to reach level 36 for that last skill point. :)
7:30 noob
do do trucks matter experiment in ets2
Yes, that's the one we'll do first. :)
Texas is the best state in ats
We shall see!
I've found one hidden road so far, in Nis.
Oh, nice work!
