I do remember one other trick not a lot of people know about, when in automatic mode if you tap the gear select button quickly as if you were bringing up your gear stick you can actually Force the automatic transmission to either shift up or shift down to either accelerate quicker in an open straight, or if your encountering mud have the transmission downshift before it stalls out and goes back to first gear
если играешь на клавиатуре, то самое удобное это назначить передачи на numpad и при ускорении или замедлении грузовика нажимать на 5, тогда происходит ручное переключение. так же можно использовать shift но важно не передвигать курсор, он будет передвигать рычаг.
Go to EVERY OLD MAP and hunt down EVERY trailer you ever left everywhere when yoy have monstrous trucks late game. I recovered about 400,000 in trailers from all my old DLC maps 😆. And its fun to revisit old maps with a reason in mind. Just a tip from a Snowrunner fan 👌
Tricks I use: When crashed, sunk or tipped over, i quit the game and reload since last autosave. Thats faster than trying to recover. Infinite cargo- if you need wooden planks for example and somewhere on the map is a task where you are given a trailer with wooden planks that need to be delivered somewhere, id accept the task, take the planks off the trailer, reset the task and new trailer with planks will appear.
After flipping over for the 1500th time I started hard exiting the game by shutting off the console. It worked for a while then my save game got corrupted and I had to start over. Xbox One.
What if I’m OCD and don’t like having 6 trucks dotted around every map. I only use 2 trucks and 2 scouts and when not using them, they’re in storage. I know it takes much longer, but it makes me feel better
Wow, glad im not the only one lol😂😅 I also drive them back and unhook the trailers as well, or haul one back on my back to garage. I do park trailers i will use again in certian spots around the garage parking areas.💪🤠👍
Sticking to the side is kind of a double-edge sword as you probably will avoid rough terrain, however you might also flip because the side isn't flat enough.
One big tip is in the settings change steering from controller to wheel. When its in wheel mode, when you let go of the joystick, the steering wheel will recenter just like every other game with a car. When you leave it as controller, you need to recenter the steering wheel, the driving is the same as the original grand theft auto 2d game.
I figured out a lot of these on my own (trees as anchors, road trains, using the crane to get unstuck, etc), but wow this video would have been convenient when the game first came out. Excellent stuff!
Another one - bind the numerical keypad keys 12456789 to your gears, where 5 is Automatic, 6 is Neutral, 4 (with 1 and 7) are Low gears, 8 - High gear and 2 - Reverse.
@@derpasoruswrecks2773 best option for us is to tap the shift button to force the auto to downshift before it stalls out. This can also be used to accelerate faster by upshifting sooner
I also use this. Another hidden advantage of using this method is if you stuck in mud, you can creep your way out by repeatedly switching between L+ and H (offroad gearbox only)
Using a tree for leverage for a small truck to lift a larger truck is a great idea. I've been playing for a while and I'm sorry I didn't think about it sooner!
For hauling lots of logs in one trip, put all of them unpacked in the trailer/addon, remove them until you have 3 (the ammount required for packing) with the crane, pack, deliver, put 3 more back in with the crane, rinse and repeat. I've delivered 6 packs of medium logs with a single simple medium logs addon. Be careful though, you GOT to drive smoothly so they don't fall from the back of the addon. Sides and front are okay.
I tried it with long logs , when I played on the russian map , Kola Peninsula , where you have to transport 3 long logs (9 unpacked) from Lake Kovd Log Station to Imandra Warehouse , but they moved freely. It was impossible to me... I had to do 3 packed turns , not 1 unpacked
Your observations on cargo weight are correct. There is a chart that shows the difference in weight for all cargo types as per game config files - even the heaviest of loads are not more than 2 tons when unpacked. For example long logs are 0,8t vs 12 t when packed! Oil rig is 2t vs 10 t unpacked!
Great tips. For the road trains, when you come across a tight corner or don't have the power to pull it up, if your train looks like the one in the video where it's 2 trucks with 2 trailers each, you break your train and try to do each truck with it's 2 trailers, if that fails then do each truck with 1 trailer and drop your trailer, reverse back and get the second one. Depending how narrow the area is you might have to take the trailers further before you drop them but this is still a lot faster than doing 2 trips since most of the time the distance is very far. Also if you do 2 trips you might still take a second vehicle with you to use as an anchor point in some sections where it's super muddy.
New player here! @ 9:08 "Use your crane to help you get unstuck. This trick could really help you one day." -- CAN CONFIRM! LOL. I just had to do that to get out of a nasty mud trap in "Drowned Lands". Literally would have been 100% completely impossible to self-recover my International HX520 without it. Watched this video when I was just starting out, and have had these tips in mind as I explored. Additional to the crane, I had the Articulated Towing Platform equipped and used it similarly to angle and dig in to push my truck forward a little while bracing with the crane in another spot. Great advice, thanks! 😄
At start if you have Season 1 pass, you have decent trucks already in first garage- International HX 520 or that KRS 58 Bandit. Bandit can be used as piggy bank if you dont like its fuel tank and better choice in my opinion is Paystar 5070 which is unlocked from level 0, 6x6 from beggining and diff lock capable. Options for attachments are nice-almost every thing which you need at first 2-3 maps. Even it can get crane+bed+trailer combo. This all for ~75K $

11:33 - unpacked cargo has less weight for cranes ) You can also unpack logs - you'll get much less weight and only 3 trees inside. And you can load like 15-21 trees in cargo trailer and the pack them by 3 at destination - that equals to 5-7 usual runs.
Just started playing. I proudly got across the “wooden bridge” river with my stock fleetstar. I had the crane, and dragged/pushed myself across the mud river the whole way. Also, I recovered 2 big trucks in the mud with my little Chevy scout truck.
Another one is if your using the controller and you see your truck tipping. Double tap Y. The direction you are looking will be the direction you will put out a winch rope Very handy at times and also pays to be aware of winch points in difficult terrain. Also, when in the cab of your truck, you can go through swamps this was as well. The winch line will shoot out the direction you are looking, allowing you to quickly travel to places like that.
dont forget the unhooking trailer. if you are pulling a trailer and feel like you are getting stuck in mud or something. unhook the trailer and the truck becomes lighter and can probably free yourself and winch the trailer towards you.
My "Hard mode" strategy: 1. Accept a contract like “Deliver a 2000-liter trailer of fuel to a cold, distant village to save civilians.” 2. Pump fuel from the trailer for driving on other contracts until there is 250 liters of fuel left in the trailer. 3. Deliver this almost empty fuel truck to a cold, distant village. 4. Contract completed "Thank you for your help. Now civilians are provided with fuel for the long long, cold winter!" 5. "My pleasure!"... And pump out the remaining 250 liters of fuel from the trailer, if it not dissapear.
Tapping the shift button to get the auto to re-evaluate what gear it should be in is one of the best tips. It keeps you from stalling and restarting from 1st gear when your forced to slow down
This is a great video to watch, it's good to see all the things I already do and learn some new ones. The one thing I disagree on FOR ME, is I do not want to just save time! I am not in a rush, I enjoy the game immensely and it's great to play after a long day at work. So multiple trips are fine by me :)
Advanced trick (more like exploit lol) that has saved me countless times: Since the devs have programmed the small cranes to open with the might of Zeus when you activate them, and they continue the opening animation even if your engine shuts down midway through it, you can use the small cranes to save yourself if you see that your truck is going to flip over (but only to the right, since that's the direction the small cranes open to). Basically, if you see that you have screwed up and your truck is flipping to the right, quickly open the functions menu and activate the crane, D-Pad Up and Square, just two buttons so it's super quick. If you manage to do these inputs before your engine shuts down it won't even matter if your truck flips and the engine turns off, once the crane opening animation has started it will play out regardless. At the very least it will hold the truck a bit more vertical so you can turn the engine on again and try to save yourself with the winch or with the crane itself (by pushing it down against the ground). At best, the opening of the crane might even bounce the truck right back onto its wheels and you can just keep going. Hope this helps someone out there o7
Thanks for your tips. Especially winch point from the rear really helps me. I barely delivered large fuel tank on first map yesterday. But winching tank's back helps a lot.
If your truck or winch is not great, do not autowinch, always winch from rear. What he didn't say is that winch power increases with the line length. That's why you can winch easily from far away but the last few metres is tough. Always maximise your line length for maximum pulling power.
Don't forget about save scumming - the game autosaves every few minutes, when you tip over or something immediately Alt+F4 the game, launch it again and you're few minutes before the accident.
Most useful tip, not mentioned here - do not use flatbed addon. Where you going uphill, at some point (steep enough ramp) the load can just slide off. Better have other addon, if load gets unpacked, it will stay in there long enough for you to notice and stop and pack it again.
Agreed - I also don't use the flatbed anymore. The sideboard bed definitely catches the load once it comes loose. This has saved me lots of times from having to chase my lost cargo down a steep hill and load it up and try all over again, only to fail again.
Another trick if youre stuck in mud or whathaveyou and have a small crane on your truck. You can extend the crane out in the needed direction and winch trees a considerable distance outside your normal winch range thanks to the winch point on the tip of the crane. This pretty much doubles your winch range. Coupled with the extended winch, it has a ridiculous reach.
Very good video my friend. I'm happy that I played the game for 24 hours first before looking up these tips. I had already started figuring these ideas out but this video confirmed my ideas and significantly accelerated the implementation of them. I came looking for a logging trick and left this video feeling like a much better player. Happy mudding friends.
If you have to drive along a sloped surface that can tip you over you can use your crane or even your own cargo as a counter weight by lifting it over to the side of your truck. It has gotten me past a few otherwise impossible areas before.
Indeed , i just saw a chart for cargo weight, unpacked cargo is strangely lighter than packed. I suppose so you can lift it with a crane? For example those pipes are around 1 ton unpacked and 5 or 6 tones packed from what i remember.
Thx About your repair station trick: There is no need to leave the repair point to fill up again. You can stay within for the whole process. Love the overloaded crane. However, I usually have cargo, the crane just barely can lift a single piece. I used the reset of maps to un-stuck a truck. E.g. I had a 73210 with crane tipped and sunk in ice in Amur Urska. No Tayga, no 605 was able to pull it out.
With the introduction of the New Game+ start even if u havent fully completed the game once already i would recommend starting any new game or if its your first to use this New Game+ and consider changing a few starting conditions. The first 1 i would turn off is the ability to recover truck. With this option turned off u cant just throw your truck into every situation becouse if u get stuck u actually have to send another truck over there to assist it. Maybe not turn this off if its your first time ever playing the game but if u know the basics i would recommend to turn recover truck off. Another starting condition i would change is the truck and trailer sell%, Trucks to 50% and trailers to 10% or 30% if u dont wanna go as low as 10%. There are so many free trailers around that u dont even need to buy any for the basic 1-2 slot cargo and the once u use can be placed on main roads making it easy to go get them if u do need them. Setting trailer sell% this low also makes u not wanna use a trailer shop as a free garage by buying a Service trailer refueling and repairing from it and then sell it back again at full price. With trailer sell% low u cant just resupply for free at a trailer store. Another setting to change is to not get a free repair and fuel if u enter a garage and instead making use of the diffrent service trailers and fuel trailers. U will find duplicate trucks that u just dont wanna use and when u find them u generally have to repair them to some degree or try to tow a broken truck back to a main road where u can have a service trailer or a truck with the Van body to repair it. Having the recovery option turned off makes it so u cant just discover a truck or drive until the tank is empty and instantly teleport it back to the garage. It also makes it so u cant drive crazy becouse if u speed crash and pop a hole in the tank and u cant repair it or if u bust the suspension your most likly gonna need to bring a repair truck over there unless your very close to a service trailer already. The reson for having truck sell% at 50% is becouse pretty mutch all trucks u get to keep need some repair and getting its 100% full value or even 80% i think it is now after a patch a while ago is still abit to mutch imo. U can unlock 2 free Scout Tatarins in Russia fairly easily each value of around 140k and even if u just sell 1 at full price u still kinda break the cash flow abit to mutch. If u wanna include DLC trucks or not i dont think matter as mutch however if u decide to include them i would set your own rule that even if u never use a specific DLC truck to never sell it becouse most of them sell for ALOT even with the 50% truck sell option. When it comes to mods its gonna differ what each person thinks is okey. Me myself i only use 1 mod and its the modded scout Khan 39 Marshal and i will be the first to admit that the thing is overpowered as hell to the point that u can pull heavy trucks out of deep mud with it if u really wanted to. I have the pre-order version of the Khan but when they nerfed it by slicing its fuel tank in half they completely destroyed its viability when u dont know where the next fuel station or fuel trailer is gonna be. When u scout out new areas the last thing u wanna worry about is running out of fuel. So thats why i use the mod instead of the in-game 1. However just like the not selling DLC trucks i have a specific rule to never tow anything that isent another scout truck or a trailer meant for scouts like the scout fuel trailer for example. I may use its winch to flip a truck over if it tips but i will never tow any truck bigger then a scout with it.
Another trick is that unpacked cargo has no collision with environment, so for cumbersome cargo you can just unpack and pack if you get stuck with a tree or similar.
Hm, in my experience in general turning off AWD provides a better turning radius in game and this holds true for real life as well as you get a much better radius when the front wheels are not driven by the gearbox and having the max angle of attack limited by the tourqe on the input shafts. But perhaps for larger trucks as you said, and especially trucks with multiple wheels on the steering axis I can imagine why AWD would indeed improve radius.
am i the only idiot that plays hardcore? BTW if u let go of the gas and the truck swichtches in first gear just push Shift bc then it shifts in the fitting gear for ur speed and Rpm ;)
Best tip is to ignore most of this video. Drive through the mud and take your time. Efficiency will ruin your experience. Getting stuck and having to find a creative solution to the problems is the point. Just driving around the mud is dumb in a game made for driving in mud. Mod out the mud and trees at that point. Personally i want to be as realistic as possible so most of these tips are useless to me.
I love the realism, if the loads tied to the chassis the truck becomes too heavy if it’s not it’s a little more free suspension fresh mud having more compression then the disturbed mud same with the gears too downloading in at 51%1/5 downloads
Really loved this video dude , cause i was thinking of getting into Snowrunner , once the new PC arrives . Btw i think Roadtrains are the best experience to long distance Snowrunner routes .
Update: Got into Snowrunner . Already spent like 10 hours in the game over the past 2 days and damn i hate the glaciers and mud-pits lmao. Would be fun though , if we could construct better roads over those mud-pits and glaciers.
I'm an old guy who does not play video games except for Mud Runner. Played it a lot, got good at it and really enjoyed that one. So, I saw this Snow Runner just a few weeks ago. Bought it and after 20h of frustration tried to return it to Steam. No luck. My problem is not getting going. I cannot earn enough money to buy anything useful. It is impossible to get to the more difficult, boggy places with the few vehicles I have. Then I was shipped of to Alaska!! Is there a video that takes us through the beginning, telling us which and where to find the correct stuff to move from point A to point B? I used the right material from the wrong trailer when delivering...and that screwed up that. Period. Thanks for a great vid.
But you can just sell the free dlc trucks and or start on new game + make your version of hard. And start with a random truck NA truck. And have contracts pay you more. And have all add on unlocked. Only money will be the issue
Из всех советов действительно дельным оказался совет с незапакованным грузом. До остальных фишек я дошел по ходу игры ещё на Мичигане (наверняка как и большинство игроков). Некоторые советы годятся только для лёгкого уровня В общем, достаточно было бы топ-10
I been stuck hauling loads with a damn truck with no 4 wheel drive. It gets the job done but i need a good 4 wheel drive for some of the extra rough terrain.
that area in Wisconsin is easier to cross if you just fjord the river slightly further downriver instead of bogging down in that mud. saves a loooooot of time.
My biggest gripe is that it takes 3 manually loaded long logs to make one stack (visually a dozen freaking logs), then have it count as only 1 for contracts.
Hi gear is slower than auto 5, but in medium terrain as shown it keeps a much better average speed up allowing you to blast through without grinding down and up gears. It's far far more efficient than auto or lo gear once you get used to it.
I have found that you lose more time to the automatic transmission hunting for the right gear. Having the H gear stops it from shifting all the damn time.
Most folk also don’t know But you get bonus points for not recovering at all. When you finish a region or map set. You get stats at the end and if you never once recovered a truck. U get bonus points. I have never recovered a truck once
по поводу того, что не возвращать грузовики, я чаще возвращаю, это удобно, никаких проблем с топливом. в гараже есть пункт, показывающий на какой карте твой грузовик, но пока там нет функционала доставки/переноса к нему, то искать по картам раздражает. а что качается логистики грузов, просто больше тратьте времени на анализ контрактов и заданий.
I'd disagree with some tips of yours, altho I have one huge tip for you: Low+ gear in deep mud can cause wheelspin (due to way too fast wheels rotation speed compared to their grip), resulting in bigger fuel consumption, and worse performance than Low gear, this one saved me several times 😉
1: after a contract, or any drive, your truck is gonna need fule, and repairs this is an off road game, so instead of having to drive a gas and repair truck all the way out to where ever you just finished a contract just recover and when you need to go, go. 6: if a truck is broken and needs repairs in a zone, switch your truck and it will be repaired if in zone
Me playing this. Hey there is a big trailer with all the steel beams i need. Go to get trailer with my best heavy duty truck. Manage to move the trailer 50' and get stuck. Struggle for half an hour with winch. Ok i just need a bigger truck. Sell most of my trucks and head over with my new $140k bigger truck, this is sure to work, hook up to stuck trailer, manage to move the trailer 10' and get stuck
Можно сказать что в игре есть пара настоящих Сноураннер это колёса низкого давления на Треколе и Хантере, на них легче заезжать в какие-то горы, например чтобы открыть БТР в Зимнегорске.

Seed the trucks around and retrieve them when you need them. Simple as that

This is a great video to watch, it's good to see all the things I already do and learn some new ones. The one thing I disagree on FOR ME, is I do not want to just save time! I am not in a rush, I enjoy the game immensely and it's great to play after a long day at work. So multiple trips are fine by me :)
Advanced trick (more like exploit lol) that has saved me countless times: Since the devs have programmed the small cranes to open with the might of Zeus when you activate them, and they continue the opening animation even if your engine shuts down midway through it, you can use the small cranes to save yourself if you see that your truck is going to flip over (but only to the right, since that's the direction the small cranes open to).
Basically, if you see that you have screwed up and your truck is flipping to the right, quickly open the functions menu and activate the crane, D-Pad Up and Square, just two buttons so it's super quick. If you manage to do these inputs before your engine shuts down it won't even matter if your truck flips and the engine turns off, once the crane opening animation has started it will play out regardless. At the very least it will hold the truck a bit more vertical so you can turn the engine on again and try to save yourself with the winch or with the crane itself (by pushing it down against the ground). At best, the opening of the crane might even bounce the truck right back onto its wheels and you can just keep going.
Hope this helps someone out there o7
Thanks for your tips. Especially winch point from the rear really helps me. I barely delivered large fuel tank on first map yesterday. But winching tank's back helps a lot.
If your truck or winch is not great, do not autowinch, always winch from rear.
What he didn't say is that winch power increases with the line length. That's why you can winch easily from far away but the last few metres is tough. Always maximise your line length for maximum pulling power.
"Stick to the side of the road"
Amur: We don't do that here...
Overload is Very OP 🤩
Don't forget about save scumming - the game autosaves every few minutes, when you tip over or something immediately Alt+F4 the game, launch it again and you're few minutes before the accident.
Best tip video I've seen. Very clever tips that don't take away from the experience.
I already use every one of these lol but I learned the hard way.
Stability with unpack truck makes sense. When you pack it, the center of mass is higher, making the truck tippy'er.
Most useful tip, not mentioned here - do not use flatbed addon. Where you going uphill, at some point (steep enough ramp) the load can just slide off. Better have other addon, if load gets unpacked, it will stay in there long enough for you to notice and stop and pack it again.
Agreed - I also don't use the flatbed anymore. The sideboard bed definitely catches the load once it comes loose. This has saved me lots of times from having to chase my lost cargo down a steep hill and load it up and try all over again, only to fail again.
Another trick if youre stuck in mud or whathaveyou and have a small crane on your truck.
You can extend the crane out in the needed direction and winch trees a considerable distance outside your normal winch range thanks to the winch point on the tip of the crane.
This pretty much doubles your winch range.
Coupled with the extended winch, it has a ridiculous reach.
Very good video my friend. I'm happy that I played the game for 24 hours first before looking up these tips. I had already started figuring these ideas out but this video confirmed my ideas and significantly accelerated the implementation of them. I came looking for a logging trick and left this video feeling like a much better player. Happy mudding friends.
Ps. I love your final tip. Who knew how picky we could get about our mud. Lol
If you have to drive along a sloped surface that can tip you over you can use your crane or even your own cargo as a counter weight by lifting it over to the side of your truck. It has gotten me past a few otherwise impossible areas before.
I've done this more than once to prevent tipping over on a negatively-banked turn.. Just boom your crane over to the uphill side as a counterweight.
using tree as anchor point is very good because if it’s muddy or snowy you slide all over !! like the truck being pulled in jurassic park lost world
Indeed , i just saw a chart for cargo weight, unpacked cargo is strangely lighter than packed. I suppose so you can lift it with a crane? For example those pipes are around 1 ton unpacked and 5 or 6 tones packed from what i remember.
Thx
About your repair station trick: There is no need to leave the repair point to fill up again. You can stay within for the whole process.
Love the overloaded crane. However, I usually have cargo, the crane just barely can lift a single piece.
I used the reset of maps to un-stuck a truck. E.g. I had a 73210 with crane tipped and sunk in ice in Amur Urska. No Tayga, no 605 was able to pull it out.
With the introduction of the New Game+ start even if u havent fully completed the game once already i would recommend starting any new game or if its your first to use this New Game+ and consider changing a few starting conditions. The first 1 i would turn off is the ability to recover truck. With this option turned off u cant just throw your truck into every situation becouse if u get stuck u actually have to send another truck over there to assist it. Maybe not turn this off if its your first time ever playing the game but if u know the basics i would recommend to turn recover truck off. Another starting condition i would change is the truck and trailer sell%, Trucks to 50% and trailers to 10% or 30% if u dont wanna go as low as 10%. There are so many free trailers around that u dont even need to buy any for the basic 1-2 slot cargo and the once u use can be placed on main roads making it easy to go get them if u do need them. Setting trailer sell% this low also makes u not wanna use a trailer shop as a free garage by buying a Service trailer refueling and repairing from it and then sell it back again at full price. With trailer sell% low u cant just resupply for free at a trailer store. Another setting to change is to not get a free repair and fuel if u enter a garage and instead making use of the diffrent service trailers and fuel trailers. U will find duplicate trucks that u just dont wanna use and when u find them u generally have to repair them to some degree or try to tow a broken truck back to a main road where u can have a service trailer or a truck with the Van body to repair it. Having the recovery option turned off makes it so u cant just discover a truck or drive until the tank is empty and instantly teleport it back to the garage. It also makes it so u cant drive crazy becouse if u speed crash and pop a hole in the tank and u cant repair it or if u bust the suspension your most likly gonna need to bring a repair truck over there unless your very close to a service trailer already. The reson for having truck sell% at 50% is becouse pretty mutch all trucks u get to keep need some repair and getting its 100% full value or even 80% i think it is now after a patch a while ago is still abit to mutch imo. U can unlock 2 free Scout Tatarins in Russia fairly easily each value of around 140k and even if u just sell 1 at full price u still kinda break the cash flow abit to mutch. If u wanna include DLC trucks or not i dont think matter as mutch however if u decide to include them i would set your own rule that even if u never use a specific DLC truck to never sell it becouse most of them sell for ALOT even with the 50% truck sell option.
When it comes to mods its gonna differ what each person thinks is okey. Me myself i only use 1 mod and its the modded scout Khan 39 Marshal and i will be the first to admit that the thing is overpowered as hell to the point that u can pull heavy trucks out of deep mud with it if u really wanted to. I have the pre-order version of the Khan but when they nerfed it by slicing its fuel tank in half they completely destroyed its viability when u dont know where the next fuel station or fuel trailer is gonna be. When u scout out new areas the last thing u wanna worry about is running out of fuel. So thats why i use the mod instead of the in-game 1. However just like the not selling DLC trucks i have a specific rule to never tow anything that isent another scout truck or a trailer meant for scouts like the scout fuel trailer for example. I may use its winch to flip a truck over if it tips but i will never tow any truck bigger then a scout with it.
Складний режим для кого зробили?
Nice video. I think the "mud refresh" one is the most useful.
Excellent video! Thanks so much for the tips ...
great tips -- i especially like using a tree as an anchor 👍🏽
Some great tips, thanks. Found the stacked cargo very interesting .
Another tip is to look for the Tire Comparison spreadsheet. There is such thing as the best mud tyres for the current truck you are using.
TOP advices I've ever met! Respect!
Cranes turn with more force than a winch pulls 😉
and, as in real life, the closer you pull the end of your crane to your truck, the better lift power. (the shorter you boom your crane)
Another trick is that unpacked cargo has no collision with environment, so for cumbersome cargo you can just unpack and pack if you get stuck with a tree or similar.
Hm, in my experience in general turning off AWD provides a better turning radius in game and this holds true for real life as well as you get a much better radius when the front wheels are not driven by the gearbox and having the max angle of attack limited by the tourqe on the input shafts.
But perhaps for larger trucks as you said, and especially trucks with multiple wheels on the steering axis I can imagine why AWD would indeed improve radius.
best tip : if you flip over your truck press alt+f4 (wait for save sync) and load game again, mostly it will load before the crash
wow. Great tips. Thanks for making this video. The overloading trick is brilliant
am i the only idiot that plays hardcore?
BTW
if u let go of the gas and the truck swichtches in first gear
just push Shift
bc then it shifts in the fitting gear for ur speed and Rpm ;)
Mudrunner vet here. The only conceivable way for me to play, is hardcore. Far more rewarding.
Best tip is to ignore most of this video. Drive through the mud and take your time. Efficiency will ruin your experience. Getting stuck and having to find a creative solution to the problems is the point. Just driving around the mud is dumb in a game made for driving in mud. Mod out the mud and trees at that point. Personally i want to be as realistic as possible so most of these tips are useless to me.
This comment is useless to me.
@@AcceptanceDevOps this comment is useless to me.
I love the realism, if the loads tied to the chassis the truck becomes too heavy if it’s not it’s a little more free suspension fresh mud having more compression then the disturbed mud same with the gears too downloading in at 51%1/5 downloads
Really loved this video dude , cause i was thinking of getting into Snowrunner , once the new PC arrives . Btw i think Roadtrains are the best experience to long distance Snowrunner routes .
Update: Got into Snowrunner . Already spent like 10 hours in the game over the past 2 days and damn i hate the glaciers and mud-pits lmao. Would be fun though , if we could construct better roads over those mud-pits and glaciers.
Alaska and Yola's so tough!!
Alaskas not that hard
I'm an old guy who does not play video games except for Mud Runner. Played it a lot, got good at it and really enjoyed that one. So, I saw this Snow Runner just a few weeks ago. Bought it and after 20h of frustration tried to return it to Steam. No luck.
My problem is not getting going. I cannot earn enough money to buy anything useful. It is impossible to get to the more difficult, boggy places with the few vehicles I have. Then I was shipped of to Alaska!!
Is there a video that takes us through the beginning, telling us which and where to find the correct stuff to move from point A to point B? I used the right material from the wrong trailer when delivering...and that screwed up that. Period.
Thanks for a great vid.
Sending you to Alaska is mean. The best thing to do is come straight back to Michigan. Save the Alaska map until your trucks and skills are better.
But you can just sell the free dlc trucks and or start on new game + make your version of hard. And start with a random truck NA truck. And have contracts pay you more. And have all add on unlocked. Only money will be the issue
Из всех советов действительно дельным оказался совет с незапакованным грузом. До остальных фишек я дошел по ходу игры ещё на Мичигане (наверняка как и большинство игроков). Некоторые советы годятся только для лёгкого уровня
В общем, достаточно было бы топ-10
The whinch from back is a very cool advice
The Azov 73210 😍
THX for theese tips Cyrus, it helped me a lot as a newbie! 😉👍👍👍
Good tips, but I don't go to other maps to get my roads reset. I like the challange
Very very much appreciated 👍 thanks for the advices
8:53 also if the truck is top heavy use the crane an a counter weight
I been stuck hauling loads with a damn truck with no 4 wheel drive. It gets the job done but i need a good 4 wheel drive for some of the extra rough terrain.
that area in Wisconsin is easier to cross if you just fjord the river slightly further downriver instead of bogging down in that mud. saves a loooooot of time.
I always just crossed a little bit south of that road. Currently doing the Wisconsin maps 🤘
Wish I knew 😄 but thanks a lot 👍🏻
My biggest gripe is that it takes 3 manually loaded long logs to make one stack (visually a dozen freaking logs), then have it count as only 1 for contracts.
Keep stacking the logs on the trailer but dont pack them.
Awesome video thanks man
i understand the high range gearbox one, but to get back p to speed i usually just use the clutch tapping thing
Great tips! Thanks!
Those are very good and useful tricks! I was expecting more common stuff
9:52 ive never used high gear as it never works . i thought it was high gear but it just slows down, every time, loaded or unloaded.
Hi gear is slower than auto 5, but in medium terrain as shown it keeps a much better average speed up allowing you to blast through without grinding down and up gears.
It's far far more efficient than auto or lo gear once you get used to it.
I have found that you lose more time to the automatic transmission hunting for the right gear. Having the H gear stops it from shifting all the damn time.
Those where some real good tips
You are a genius thanks
Great tips. Thank you!
I don’t want to save time in this game I want to drive for hours non stop I love this game 😂
Most folk also don’t know
But you get bonus points for not recovering at all. When you finish a region or map set. You get stats at the end and if you never once recovered a truck. U get bonus points. I have never recovered a truck once
no bonus points. In fact, there are no points at all in the game, only money and experience
on which maps do you recommend using high gearboxes rather than off-road?
Just found this game on game pass. Awesome game
Thanks for the tips! I play with wheels and pedals/kb mouse and my UI goes nuts often , what do you use for controls?
по поводу того, что не возвращать грузовики, я чаще возвращаю, это удобно, никаких проблем с топливом. в гараже есть пункт, показывающий на какой карте твой грузовик, но пока там нет функционала доставки/переноса к нему, то искать по картам раздражает.
а что качается логистики грузов, просто больше тратьте времени на анализ контрактов и заданий.
I feels smart because Ive done some of these already.
thanks for crane tip man helps a lot
This was very helpful, thanks!
Half of the stuff he says I can't make out... but I still understand
bro this is very helpfull thanks
I'd disagree with some tips of yours, altho I have one huge tip for you: Low+ gear in deep mud can cause wheelspin (due to way too fast wheels rotation speed compared to their grip), resulting in bigger fuel consumption, and worse performance than Low gear, this one saved me several times 😉
1: after a contract, or any drive, your truck is gonna need fule, and repairs this is an off road game, so instead of having to drive a gas and repair truck all the way out to where ever you just finished a contract just recover and when you need to go, go.
6: if a truck is broken and needs repairs in a zone, switch your truck and it will be repaired if in zone
Me playing this. Hey there is a big trailer with all the steel beams i need. Go to get trailer with my best heavy duty truck. Manage to move the trailer 50' and get stuck. Struggle for half an hour with winch. Ok i just need a bigger truck. Sell most of my trucks and head over with my new $140k bigger truck, this is sure to work, hook up to stuck trailer, manage to move the trailer 10' and get stuck
Amazing winch tips
Amazing Persian accent aside, the tips are good and helpful.
Very nice Video .. Highly Recommend to who begin this game
great video mate keep it up!
is it worth playing with a gamepad? don’t wanna invest in a steering wheel just for this game? thanks
Steering wheel is clunky in this game. You can't easily look around with a wheel. I'd say a gamepad is better
My tips: 1) dont use American trucks
2) dont use scout vehicles
They ste both useless.
Можно сказать что в игре есть пара настоящих Сноураннер это колёса низкого давления на Треколе и Хантере, на них легче заезжать в какие-то горы, например чтобы открыть БТР в Зимнегорске.
Random supportive comment.....
Great video ... great accent
