And rightly so!
It is tremendous fun to just try to get from A to B and watch the tires fight the mud...and water. River crossings are jaw dropping, the physics are absolutely revolutionary.

If you google around a 'lil, you might find it in a game key store and save some bucks, just don't accidentally buy the (cheapest) Russian version.

MP is not really playable at the moment though. You can't save any progress, which is degrading the MP aspect of the game to nothing more than a "proof of concept" or tech demo to be honest. Anyways, I am confident that it will be developed/supported further.

You won't regret buying it though, I am quite sure about that from what you just wrote.

I have a lot of fun just coming up with different ways to achieve the log drops.You can even only collect fallen logs to get the quota by using the crane of course.

Once just for fun I took the Maz 535 and then the Kraz with a medium log trailer loaded it up and then pulled the 535 in front and hooked them together and pulled the Kraz and loaded trailer.

It went fairly well until the Kraz tipped over and I had to use the Ural with crane to pick up the logs again.

Not much happenings with this game.
No new maps, no mod support :hmmm:

On another note, had a jolly good fun thrashing my room after drowning all the trucks in the river map :)

Try my mod .

this :)


I've been reading on forums, people complain that once a vehicle is modded, you can't load them up or use the winch :hmmm:

I regret buying this 'game'.
Now let me make one thing clear.

This product is nothing else but a tech demo, showing us cool new physics and "oh look the mud moves omg it looks so awesome when the truck crosses a river oh awesome" - but besides this, the product offers and delivers... nothing.

Nothing in the badly working multiplayer mode is synchronized.
You don't hear other players trucks
Don't see there lights
Don't see them creating FX like exhaust smoke or all the beautiful 'mud moving' effects.
Can't use any other controllers sufficiently except x360.
Can't remap controls.
Camera controls 'questionable'
...this list could be very long...

The goal of the game gets boring after you did it once and maybe even before that, makes you askyourself "wait, what am I doing here!?".

It hurts to see a product with a crapton of potential wasted by a developer who is not using his good amount of cash to get more people on board to work on it.
Either he should have dropped it after release or hired more people who know what they are doing - then the product could one day develop into a real game.

Now, don't go there (in that forum) and dare to say what I said above.
The fanboys are strong there and criticism is not allowed, you will earn the "you got what it said on the box" arguments (which is also not true, note the synchronization errors I mentioned). The same empty excuses fanboys made with, and we hopefully don't have to argue about that title anymore, Takedown: Red Sabre.

It is like going to a car dealer to buy a car and after rolling from the parking lot you crash into the next best obstacle because... no brakes.
You complain at the dealer "Why the hell does the car have no brakes?"
He then calmly tells you of with "Well, you got what it said on the advertisement. No one said it would have breaks".
Well short: Fundamental features and functions that make a game - are missing or incomplete or buggy - therefor I do not call Spintires (or trash like Red Sabre) 'games'.
Oh and... don't ever alt+tab while in multi-player, cause it will cause a disconnect shortly after.

Other than that? Cool tech demo, would love to see so much more of it!

€: I forgot the most important weakspot of this project: No multi-player saves. No. Multi-player. Saves.
What a joke! :stare:

More like advertising: brakes on the way, and then still waiting after a year.

Never played MP and not regretting buying this game, but you still made good points.
They promised a mod support and a campaign mode right after release. Still waiting...

Exactly, still waiting.
Now, if the product would make good progress in the next months, I won't see a reason to regret buying it any longer - but for now I do.

I really hope the best though!

Necroing this thread, buuuuahahahahaha.

Yeah, left this game alone for a few months after the great truck drowning on the river. Finished the river map finally today. And when I say finished I mean started from the begining as the save games are gone and the forum is full of grief against the devs for destroying saved games :shifty:

Still, had a ton of fun and still don't regret buying it.

But there's so little done development vise.

Which is a shame, I still keep an eye on it and hope it suddenly makes a move... but nothing happens.
The potential is enormous, they just don't do anything with it.

They did buff the ZIL-130 (blue 2 axel rust bucket).
That thing used to be useless but now it chews trough mud holes :)

It was useless, I still liked it though.
But my all time fav is the orange Kamaz, great truck!
Would buy one in real life if I'd need one. :D

By the words of my Moldova co-worker: they'd pay you to take it :)
But yea, those Kamaz trucks are a regualr sight on various endurance races like the Paris-Dakar rally

My game favourite is the Ural though. I like my trucks with a nose. I'm such a non-European :hmph:

The little rust bucket that could
