Is it survival, sure, is it annoying survival? Not at all. Also, since it's an existing server, you can choose to essentially start where we left off for gear and what not or choose to start from beginning. It's so chill and the building mechanics are top notch. 

Black marble my man, so many things. I'm genuinely excited 😆.

I really have to give this a go at some point.  It's one of those games that I'm interested in, but also a little turned off by the survivor aspects of it.  Maybe I'm just weird.  Lol.  

i have seen almost nothing on purpose cause i want to go blind in but it seems they added a ton of stuff for us to see and do and revamp our bases yet again😁 but i don't think we need to restart, we barely touched one or two mistlands islands before this update so we should be fine
 
unless many people want us to restart then i am fine with it if we can have 10 people for example playing it

Agreed @TurboR56Mini . I think you can still do so much on an existing server. I suppose its making sure people know they don't have to grab anything out of chests, etc if they want to explore and get stuff from scratch. I'll take a look at my availability around Christmas and New Year for this.

@GazzaGarratt not sure we need to nuke the server as there is a great deal of history and fun things for new folks to explore. We did not do that much exploring in the mistlands prior to this apart from a few outposts so I think it's ok to keep it. Nothing is broken. I'm open to hear what other think too obviously.

Oh man, it's like a new game, the gift that keeps on giving. New doors, black marble, a feather cape that means I can yeet off the highest points and not die... It's feel like another 500 hours are coming...

Ooooooo it's happening! This looks spectacular and will be a brilliant time for new folks to jump in and experience the world we built and make your own contributions!!!! Really excited for what they've added here.

Oooo i've tried not to watch too much of that because all the new things excite me muchly!! This is such a fantastic game and I only stopped for a break whilst we tried to get people involved. It is probably the one server game I can play all year round knowing I'll have something to do in it.
 
One extra boss I assume? I'm hoping we can get more on this as I just love our chilled sessions where we can build loads of fantastic buildings. I wanna see a whole FG City now!!
 
Is it good news that we can use our existing server or is this enough to start completely fresh? I know this isn't like 7 Days where you don't get too ahead but at the same point many new/returning players might want a new world. I'm open to either right now.

I'm so far out of the hardware loop that I couldn't even tell you whether to go AMD or Intel anymore.

So to that end I'll suggest selling the kid and pooling the money for his PC and going to Vegas instead. 

These guys are my spirit animal....

Yep @GazzaGarratt, fixed the year too, it's a '68 not '69. Have had it 20 years now, my dad and I built it back in highschool. Bought it 2001, painted it in like 2006ish. That picture is a few years old but it was taken in the town we live now so it's current. Have not driven it in a few years which is killing me. Need to dump some money in it for new suspension, the 60 year old components need some love after a massive pot hole was hit a few years ago. I plan on dumping another 20k into it so just waiting. This is a body on frame car and they make some killer aftermarket rolling chassis's these days. They come with all new suspension too so that's like 12-15k right there. Have been working on the house for the last 7 years so it's on the back burner for now.

OOOO cars!!! I'm 36 have have had 40 vehicles thus far, current stable is the mentioned '05 R53 Mini JCW, my '68 Pontiac LeMans, and our '58 Chevy Apache. 

The map mods look cool for ETS2.

I bought a Pete 362 pack from Jon Ruda since I love cabovers and had to have it. That's all I'm running on ATS. Nothing on ETS2

Anyone tried out mods or are you running vanilla? If you have, feel free to post them below. Since coming back I'm running vanilla, but I'll be looking at traffic mods soon.

**I would recommend having a separate profile that contains map mods, as game updates break mods until they get updated**

So, when I set up Trucksbook I joined my own company to test it out.
To join FG World I had to resign from my own company, which I've done, but it now says I have to wait 24 hours before I can join another company 🙄😁
