So do you just sell the vehicles when you find them? I’m trying to grind xp to unlock some of the nicer trucks.

Also took this shot, this game looks so nice

Yes red glasses but only because I’ve lost some because of the bugs, I lost the Paystar because of that so I cheated the money back in to buy another one

I'm playing this too. Still using the starting GMC with a couple of found upgrades. I really need something AWD.

Yeah I was only saying to a friend yesterday it's almost like cheating because it is literally a go anywhere vehicle.

Do we get charged for any of the materials at the various spawn points?

You mean stuff you pick up for missions? Like wood, consumables? I don't think. I at least havent noticed the money go down

There are a ton of bugs on the snowrunner forum page, 10 times worse than when farming simulator 19 came out. Touch wood since I blew the dust out of my PS4 I haven’t had the game crash

Basically the whole game revolves around picking up goods and equipment and delivering them using trucks across large maps where mud and snow is your enemy. If you've ever seen a show like Ice Road Truckers then Snowrunner is the computer game equivalent of that. Its good fun, in a limited kind of way. I never got into Mudrunner, the previous game in the franchise, but Snowrunner seems much better. Mainly because the graphics are much nicer.

My main issue with it is that unlike FS where if you get bored doing one job you can go off and do something else on the farm with Snowrunner there's nothing else to do. Its a very focussed experience. I know that thats its joy though for some people. It just does one thing but it does that thing really, really well.

My other issue is that it can be incredibly frustrating. You can spend ages chugging slowly across a vast map with a huge haul of gear loaded on your truck only to get impossibly stuck in mud or tip over to then just have to start the whole thing all over again to then possibly get stuck in mud again. Repeat again and again. Its can be quite brutally difficult a times, especially until you unlock decent trucks. Again though for some people thats the real gaming challenge of it. It is a satisfying experience once you complete some of the missions though.

You can play it online where I bet its good fun. Its quite a lonely lifeless game in single player.

Agreed with Mobias. Frustrating at times but it feels pretty damn amazing to finish a job up after hauling a flatbed and trailer full of goods through the mud!
