By navigating to these points the black fog is removed revealing the local topology. Most of the map has been charted, except for the northeast section which has four watchpoints. Your goal is to deliver 8 points of lumber to the sawmill. This is entitled “the bog” and for good reason. To have this as an opener to the challenge mode is ridiculous and shows no regard for any kind of learning curve.Ī far better opener to the game is to try the first single player map.
This is nigh on impossible in the interior view as you have no idea as to the orientation of the trailer in regards to the surrounding environment and your vehicle. You have no functioning wing mirrors or even a periscope rear view mirror.The end challenge is to reverse the tractor and trailer into a muddy yard. This is almost like driving with blinkers on. To gain one of the stars you have to use cabin/interior view. Challenge One is a perfect example of the limitations of the game as a full on truck simulation. An additional three stars can be earned by completing scenarios with further restraints. These task the player with a number of objectives from a tricky hill climb to a nighttime trailer rescue. For example, the nippy UAZ “jeep” is only one star, whereas the 26 tonne E-7310 behemoth is four stars.Ī new addition to Mud Runner’s previous outing is the inclusion of nine challenge maps. Each vehicle has a star or balance rating governed by its power. Each map has a balance rating denoted by stars. Before you start blazing a trail through the forests of eastern Europe you can choose up to three initial vehicles. Once you have completed a map, you gain a progress point which unlocks the next sandbox. On starting the game you only have access to the first single player map. I’m no Spintires veteran so I can’t comment on any of the changes. These have been reworked from the previous game and retitled. There are six maps included in the base game and more to come if mod support is updated in a future patch. So a fresh start for one of the most compelling and original games to come to Steam over the past 3 years.
This new update/reboot now has a different publisher but retains the original developer. Suffice to say the community surrounding the game is hardcore and pretty volatile. Spintires has had a much troubled and storied history which I won’t dwell on too much.
