    This is the game that led me toward the path of the 18 Wheels Of Steel series back in the summer of 2015 for the very first time, seriously though, I was really addicted with this driving simulator for what it had to offer when I played it for the first time ever back in 2015, if you're the type of gamer that happens to love a long driving simulator, then I would say that this is truly the game for you, sadly though, it does not give you the option to save when you're making a delivery which I…

    Preliminary review Never played this before, the first truck game i ever played was Hard Truck 2. Got interested 18WOS series because of ETS2. Pros Accurate realtime reflections on trucks body and rims that curves according to the shape of surfaces. High quality in-game music Supports 1080p resolution Uses Anisotropic texture filtering Good in-game Tutorial There's a manual in html format in the game's installation folder Works offline without Steam Cons No AA setting either…

    18 Wheels of Steel: Convoy represents a formative era in trucking simulation, arriving at a time when the genre was still experimenting with structure, pacing, and identity. Developed by SCS Software and published by Cosmi Valusoft, it builds on the foundation laid by earlier entries while introducing more dynamic road interactions and a greater emphasis on business progression. The game places players in the role of a long-haul trucker traveling across a condensed version of North America,…

    I played this game 15 years ago in my teens. I've been playing ATS and I just found this on steam it was on sale for $5 and I grabbed it. downloaded in 5 seconds, Game started in 1 Second and loaded into game in 3 Seconds and I was instantly driving a truck. So easy, so simple. Yes the graphics are terrible in comparison to modern day standards. not nearly as many options as "New" games. But if you just want a quiet simple trucking game to play with little to no headache. just hop on here for…

    18 Wheels of Steel Across America was probably among my most played games when I was maybe 9 or 10. I usually think of Eurotruck players as at least 17+, but I wonder if there are still kids these days who also just get hooked on driving a truck in a video game.

    An excellent idea regarding the new gameplay in the form of various missions that we need to complete, everything else is a half-finished product. I wouldn't even say a half-finished product, but as if someone took the game out of the early development phase and decided to publish it. Waste of time and money.

    I have fond memories of playing this game many years ago, when the laptop I used wasn't even strong enough to run it properly, and rendered every vehicle as a simple, grey box. We were always confused why there were some boxes just sitting on the side of the road, until one day we decided to run into one and quickly figured out that those were cop cars. Unfortunately, despite having much better hardware to run this game on nowadays, it turns out that this game just isn't very good, and even my…

    This one dispite better graphics overall has a weaker art style and atmosphere than previous installations. We literary get more shiny objects in exchange that trucks looks like a cartoon clipouts in this title.

    I used to have it back in the day, couldn't figure out how it worked as a kid. Since I have it now I can imagine why. The game is missing a lot of features, like pressing a F key for the side mirrors, indicaters that you don't notice in first person mode, the truck feels like slowmotion driving. Only fun thing is that the NPC truckers honk at you as a greeting. Google describes it as the worst of the franchise, and trust me, it is!

    this was one of my fav franchise from childhood game collection, i had a bad pc, so i couldn't run that higher level graphics, beside, i am a 90's, so in my childhood ,there wasn't that much of a high end game, but this franchise "18 wheels" the great predecessor of "Euro truck simulator" developed by same company "THQ" is one of the "funnest" truck sim game, well the only thing you have to do is pretty much delivery, it could be cargo's or special or sports car or a bus full of people. .…

    1) No customisation stations. I can't change colors, or parts. 2) Can't save in the middle of a job. If you take a long job - you need to FINISH it, or ABANDON it. No other options. If anyone knows where/when I can customise - please tell me. I want to do it.

    Got mixed feeling about this one. The previous game Across America was fun, nice drive through the map. The map though was too small for my liking, I am glad that Convoy has a larger map, but not so keen on not being able to save on a job...which sucks because if real life gets in the way (And it does) you've just wasted that recreational time and may as well not have played at all. Good, your finite life wasted. I hate restrictive saves like that. Also the graphics look odd, driving is O.K…

    DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. Its absolytely terrible. Compared to previous 18 WoS games, this one feels like super cheap, no effort, worse quality clone from 3rd world country. Roads are super long, deliveries take ages to complete. On top of that YOU CAN NOT SAVE DURING DELIVERY. So either you sit in this game for 8h straight to deliver the load or just give up. No CB, no music in the game. NO TRUCK UPGRADES - like wtf? Terrible map, you can't move it while zoomed in. No markings. You have few…
