I like a challenge as much as the next person but Imandra is a joke. Whoever in Saber came up with that map needs their head looked at!

Some (or all) of the Amur maps are even worse. I like a challenge too. But getting stuck in a snow-covered mud-pit and being totally unable to move isn't a "challenge". It's a pain in the arse, particularly when this happpens over and over again.

Completed Tennessee (well, pretty much) Nice change of pace taking the racing trucks out for the challenges - so back to Amur for me now. I want that Tatra!

It must be said, it was with a sense of pride and relief when I completed Amur. Currently in Yukon myself and just started Big Salmon Peak.
Nice to do a couple of easier maps, even if a couple of the contracts are large.

Talking of the Yukon. Driving a forklift through the Canadian forests is something you'll not easily forget

I don't usually bother too much with reading the trophy list before playing a game, just enjoy getting them as they occur and sometimes laugh at the silly names they have - only when I'm close to getting a platinum will I bother looking - it's a failing, I know
So it was only this week that noticed two of them were for areas I'd long since completed. So I fired up a new save and had some fun. I also didn't realise that the DLC trucks would appear in the garage storage section, ready to use of sell. It also completely changes how I approach the game knowing the P16 was reachable relatively quickly. Two days and twenty odd hours later I almost have those missing trophies, just a few more pumpkins and a mission or so in Taymyr with the Pacific to do.

New trailer for the season 10 stuff:
New Kenworth looks cool and the Mack seems nice, and I like the look of the area. I really enjoyed the "vibe" of Maine and this looks kinda similar with the fishing stuff.
...But I'm so far behind in this game I don't even have the Year 3 pass yet. I always enjoy new content up until I get to the grindy tasks/contracts that require a bunch of trips back and forth to/from the same locations and kinda lose interest and end up not coming back for a while.

Other than jumping ahead to get the Zikz, I am doing all the maps in order - currently in Central Asia. Think I only have another couple of maps to do then I have is finished..... until season 11. I have never spent so much time in a single game.

Oh, I have but mostly in RPGs like the Borderlands games where I'm between 1,000 and 2,000 hours on three of them - Driveclub being the exception at almost 3,000 hours. SnowRunner is slowly catching up though, currently at 745. I'll probably peak at just over 1,000 though, unless a fourth season comes along.

The music is definitely very special, especially for the two Kola peninsula maps. The change of scenery too. I like how each map is well designed and has a different challenge as well as feel to it.Well I've just started on Alaska after taking 118 hours to complete Michigan. So far I'm really appreciating the change of scenery.. and music

Like with Wreckfest I’m glad the next game is something a bit different….I kinda feel like Snowrunner is pretty much the best version possible of its concept and I like the idea of incorporating the same kind of driving into something altogether more….epic. Very interested in how that turns out.

When the time comes to continue my hard mode run, I'm coming straight to the Scandinavia maps. It'll be a blast taking the base game maps on with the Burlak scout, plus you pick up a Voron AE 4380 already fitted with a top-tier engine and good off-road tyres!

Went ahead and jumped over to Scandinavia with the P16 to haul the Burlak out and rescue the Voron. Wasn't quite as easy as I'd imagined but that's a lot of missions now done and I've gone up four levels - just looking for the right point to move back to the Michigan maps - still loving the new water spray effects

After a long hiatus I got the Snowrunner itch again. I had to try out the new JAT tire pack. Most of the tires are just side-grades, but dually mud tires are nice and the scouts get a HUGE buff out of it. Trucks like the tippy scout 800 and always stuck Hummer H2 are now fun to use, they can also put in work now reliably dragging cargo around while sipping fuel compared to the big trucks.

Currently playing Mudrunner on my recently purchased PS5.
Nearly hundred hours clocked on the PS4 and will be soon doing it all over again. Not entirely sure about the resolution but the general image quality is definitely improved, not to mention the rock solid 60fps that previously would send the PS4’s fans into orbit unless you locked it at 30fps - even then, the PS4 would really sweat. The boost in performance alone makes this game almost new for me.
I also installed Snowrunner on the PS5, which I haven’t really played that much since its release in 2020. It is a good game, I do recognize that. However, it failed to capture my attention in the long run.
I do have a few gripes with SR but it’s mainly due to the driving just not being that much fun compared to MR. The physics, terrain deformation, suspension movement, as well the flexing of the trucks frame is vastly superior in MR (albeit the latter is somewhat exaggerated). The driving experience is in my opinion simply far more engaging, rewarding and satisfying in MR.
With that said, I’m certainly keeping an eye on Expeditions as it does look promising.

I also enjoy Mudrunner, the physics are better no doubt. The logging cranes are so much better, and the vehicles sound better imo. The only downsides are the small maps and limited things to do. Snowrunner has so much to do in comparison. It takes longer to just complete Michigan than to complete every Mudrunner map with one star.
I am also looking forward to Expeditions, I hope it can somewhat combine that Mudrunner feel with Snowrunner content and graphics.
