FAQ

  • Q: Why does vehicle development take a long time?
    • A: SCS doesn't announce things that are not in the stage of Beta testing, in case anything happens, manufacturers postpone due to a design/sound issues or major licensing factors come into play which can cause a delay. [1].
  • Q: Why aren't after-market truck accessories or add-ons apart of a truck release?
    • A: What you get as "free" part of the truck is completely factory products that are still available in production and everything that comes from this brand as part of this truck when you buy or order from the factory itself. Any Tuning DLC's or after-market accessories have to be separate DLC's. [2]
