    SnowRunner's gameplay is a massive improvement over the previous games(SpinTires and MudRunner) but the slow pace at the start will unfortunately turn away people who haven't played those. I don't think that people will be able to put up with the horribly slow starter truck for long. The first 10 hours or so are a slog to go through because you have practically nothing unlocked andSnowRunner's gameplay is a massive improvement over the previous games(SpinTires and MudRunner) but the slow pace at the start will unfortunately turn away people who haven't played those.

As you get more and more unlocked, the game starts to be more fun. It's just a shame that it takes so long to reach that point.… Expand

    The first few hours made me question if buying Snowrunner was a mistake. The most frustrating thing in the 1st few hours is the unintuitive menu. While the interface is easy enough for a console controller, knowing how to switch between trucks without being near the other trucks is vital in this game; & there is no tutorial on how to do this.

    Knowledge of the different kind of trucks is    The first few hours made me question if buying Snowrunner was a mistake. The most frustrating thing in the 1st few hours is the unintuitive menu. While the interface is easy enough for a console controller, knowing how to switch between trucks without being near the other trucks is vital in this game; & there is no tutorial on how to do this.

    Knowledge of the different kind of trucks is vital for the 1st map in snowrunner; knowing the difference between highway trucks, offroad trucks & heavy haulers is vital to using the right tools for each task. Using the wrong tools is recipe for failure & frustration.

    In fact, there is 1 point that shows that the lack of knowledge of the differences in trucks is a showstopper for me. This was in the Island Lake map, where I had to deliver 3 contrainers of drilling equipment to the warehouse. I had no idea what the drilling equipment was nor did I know how capable my truck was. Up to this point, my Azov 64131 performed admirably despite not having any upgrades. Yet, I was shocked when it couldn't climb the slope with the cargo. In fact, the semi-trailer flipped on its side, discarding the container. This combination of heavy cargo & long slopes require heavy trucks. Even with this knowledge, I still failed because the suggested heavy truck - the Twinsteer - performed miserably in this undulating terrain. I kept tipping over at different parts of the map. In fact, my Island Lake is littered with containers of drilling equipment. Winching the Twinsteer was a pain every time because the roads in Island Lake are muddy & narroe. My Azov sank deeper into the mud each time I pulled the Twinsteer, & I was in sweat from worry every time this occured. In the end, I concluded that the game-suggested Twinsteer is shyte. I had to drive a hulking P12 all the way from Smithsville Dam into Island Lake, past narrow tracking trails & marsh to Island Lake.

    The next issue in these series of Michigan maps was knowledge of the terrain, especially so in Island Lake & Drummond Island. There was another point in Island Lake where the mud was flat, but the left side was softer than the right side of the mud road. The Twinsteer tipped over here. I found out the hard way that this part of the journey is a hidden obstacle. Amidst all these hidden obstacles, of which there are plenty, lies short tree stumps that will stop a truck going at full speed, damaging engines & completely destroying tires.

    Even in the standard delivery tasks, there were hidden challenges. Even when the terrain was predictable & the trucks capable, there are easily misunderstood instructions on the task-list. Cargo must be delivered in specific sequences, & the items themselves must be specific. While both metal beams & concrete blocks are listed in the requirements, a bridge will require the metal beams first, before the concrete blocks. Bringing the concrete blocks first will mean not being able to unload and leaving me with a loaded trailer of cargo with potential problems of tipping over when I need to do a 3 point turn on a narrow road. There are also instances where players have to be careful in the requirements - a concrete slab is not the same as a concrete block. Bringing concrete blocks instead of concrete slabs is a recipe for disappointment & rage quit.

    The cargo items themselves are inconsistent. Metal beams & wooden planks do not have such variance like the concrete. Metal beams always take up 2 points, just like the concrete slabs, while wooden planks & concrete blocks take up only 1 point. This means that players are likely to bring the wrong trailer, either ending up with insufficient space for cargo, or setting ourselves up for failure for hauling a longer trailer than the ensuing journey permits.

    All these issues are such a pity, considering that this is the only game that make fetching items such an enjoyable experience.    … Expand

    It is fascinating to see truck drivers who help us indirectly in our lives by contributing to the construction of bridges, the collapse of rocks, even the transport of consumables. And that is exactly what we are going to do in this SnowRunner, developed by Saber Interactive which is a direct sequel to MudRunner. This game has a sandbox component in the open world, which puts    8.5/10

    It is fascinating to see truck drivers who help us indirectly in our lives by contributing to the construction of bridges, the collapse of rocks, even the transport of consumables. And that is exactly what we are going to do in this SnowRunner, developed by Saber Interactive which is a direct sequel to MudRunner.

    This game has a sandbox component in the open world, which puts us transporting materials from one point to another. This is one of the main objectives of this SnowRunner, as well as making bridges and the like, but not only. Running competitions, avoiding damage to our vehicle and touring with our Scout vehicle are also part of this game. Go to the pumps to put the fuel in our vehicle. It sounds simple, doesn't it? You are very wrong because the real challenge is... to avoid getting stuck in the road. And believe me that you will be stuck several times.

    Please note that SnowRunner is a simulator. I have a thousand and one wonders about your simulation because most of what I have been analyzing is perfect, but it is something that I will talk about later. In this SnowRunner we have 3 huge regions of Michigan, Alaska and Taimir in Russia to explore. Although the game runs only at 30 FPS, it is visually beautiful and incredibly detailed. Even the movement of the mud is very well recreated.

    I'm going to start talking about one of the essential parts of this SnowRunner. I had said earlier that it was not easy to get from point A to point B, right? This is because, in addition to normal roads and secondary roads, we have paths with enormous elevations, muddy paths, submerged paths and paths with ice. To avoid these annoyances (as much as possible), sometimes the longest path is the simplest. An initial piece of advice I can give to beginners in this SnowRunner, is to start looking for upgrades for our vehicles and make part of the map visible through the watchtowers. This facilitates the preparation of the best route.

    If we are having difficulty with an elevation, in a place full of water or mud (or both), and if we have trees or poles close by, we can use them through our winch and pull the vehicle. And another thing that can help us get out of complicated mud situations is to put our vehicle in the slowest gear. In case we are stuck and have no solution, we always have the option to rescue that sends us directly to our garage together with our vehicle. And one more point, if we have any cargo in our vehicle and we want to return to our garage, we must remove the cargo, that is, we return to zero. Do not forget that we can rescue vehicles jammed through the winches.

    SnowRunner offers a huge variety of vehicles from Off-Roads, Scouts, Highways, Heavys and Heavy Dutys. Vehicles such as the Ford CLT9000, Chevrolet CK1500 or Azov 64-131 are present in the game. And each vehicle has its specific behavior. For example, the International Harvester Scout 800 (Scout) has immense speed, while the TUZ 420 “Tatarin” is not very fast, but has more torque, which is very useful in rough terrain. Another thing that helps a lot in most of these places, is the size of the tires. Large tires are easier to get out of these places, unlike small tires. As you can see, SnowRunner has the physics of the vehicles at the right point.

    Another point in favor of this SnowRunner is the customization of our vehicles. Engines, gearbox, suspension, tires, wheels, differential lock, AWD and frame addons, all of which can be customized depending on the level we are at and the upgrades we have taken. But for example, if we put a crane on our truck, it will obviously influence its power because of the weight.

    If the player is tired of playing Solo, he can always choose the online cooperative mode. But as not everything is rosy in this SnowRunner, being an open world, it is obvious that it have technical problems. For example, my PS4 crashed a few times during quiet travels I was taking. Despite these occasional situations, SnowRunner was a great surprise and is undoubtedly recommended for those who love simulators.

    Veredict: SnowRunner goes off a complicated path successfully.    … Expand

    SnowRunner would rate a 9 out of 10 if the game functioned as it was meant to. Bugs and game breaking glitches infest this title to the point where I don't want to play anymore until they get fixed. My advice to you is either wait for a sale or wait until it gets a proper patch to fix said issues.

Exploration is fun and rewarding, you may find a massive shortcut or a new vehicle. The missions started off relatively easy, but then they ramp up the difficulty and you really have to think about your next move lest you risk a setback. My main criticisms of the game are that putting a car on a trailer doesn’t work quite how you’d want it to as there doesn’t appear to be a real way to secure it beyond using the parking brake. I’d also like a dedicated button for connecting trailers.… Expand

    Hopefully the PS4 rendering was fixed in 1.6 patch, the game's back to normal.

    What does it offer? One of the most fun and unique experiences in games that involve driving cars. Instead of speed and racing what you get is slow and precise driving, mud and snow.

    And a lot of satisfaction.

Yes it had some glitches and imperfections but these were easily over looked. I Spent 100+ hrs on SnowRunner over the course of a month and loved every minute of it. Then the 9th June update came.....

    The 9th June update changed 2 core components so drastically, i just can't play this game anymore. The first change was to the steering. The steering is now overly sensitive and super twitchy. The worst part though, is that it auto self-centres, After 100+ hrs of playtime i'm of course going to have trouble adjusting to a new steering mechanic. But it's not just that aspect alone, This new mechanic just doesn't coincide with the physics of the rest of the game. So not only do i personally feel this was a very bad choice for the developers to make, i also feel it was a bit of an unfair move on the developers part, to change a core function of the game so drastically. An option to choose between the old and new controls would have been a much better move (Arcade/SIM).

    The second major issue is the graphics. Since the 9th June update, it's like a soft filter has been added. The graphics are noticeably less sharp and have a blur to them.

    As i have the game physically. I decided to uninstall it from my PS4 and re-install from disc. Only this time NOT accept any updates/patches. This caused my save file to corrupt. I have lost all vehicles that weren't stored in garages and mission and game stat progress is completely messed up. The game runs for 5 minutes before a game breaking glitch occurs..

    Really annoyed at Saber Interactive and Focus Home Interactive for this botched update. They have ruined this game by drastically changing core game mechanic components that needed to be "tweaked" at most. Very disappointed for the money i've spent and the time lost with this game based on a bad decision. Will be steering (pun intended) well clear of any of their products in the future. Fingers crossed they fix these 2 flaws but i won't be holding my breath.    … Expand

    The graphics are top-notch and very easy on the eyes. Night time seemed to be a nightmare to drive in, but fortunately you can skip time easily to counteract this. Despite being very appealing, it's also very hard to tell which mud is safe to drive on and which will see you sink, which I suppose is realistic but not enjoyable for a game.

    The gameplay of Snowrunner is an incredibly mixed bag. For me the steering is an absolute mess, being very slow and unresponsive. A simple act of driving down a road is a challenge. The game boasts of detail and preciseness, but in my experience it was just fiddly and monotonous. The game begins by placing you at a massive disadvantage with only a couple of underwhelming trucks. Whilst normal for most games, this turns a game like Snowrunner which is designed to be a bit of a slog into an unenjoyable slog. Progress is too slow for me to enjoy it and the missions are very banal.

    Snowrunner prides itself on encouraging you to chart a path to your destination, but with the limitations of the game I didn't have many options. It should be said that I didn't make it past the first 'level' but I see it as a failure of the game to engage me as I had already invested a few hours by this point.

    It could be that Snowrunner just isn't for me, and that's why I haven't lowered my score further than I have. It just seems like a missed opportunity of a game to me and I won't be seeking out any other titles in the series.    … Expand

    Snowrunner is a decent game. The only flaws for me is the lack of information and accessibility which leads to me having to google the problem. Also the sound design could be a bit better. Other than that it’s fantastic.

And would have rated at minimum a seven.

    BUT, Snowrunner has a major misstep in design and code, there isn't a save function. The game does periodically save, which isn't the issue. The issue is when you quit the game. When you come back to the game, there are occasions where your trucks are missing. Meaning--vanished, gone. I spent a lot of time looking, searching through my garage, checking each map. But nope, it's like someone beamed them out of the game.

    Still, I was enjoying the game and not letting this bug stop me. I just replaced the two trucks I lost by repurchasing. I had enough cash so it wasn't a showstopper.

    Avalanche ahead. I advanced to several of the sections of the map in Russia and then the dreaded "lose my truck bug" reappeared. After I lost my 7th truck, i quit playing and will not play again unless they fix this showstopping bug! What a let down. The progression of obtaining new trucks, earning cash to upgrade and then to have them vanish is unforgivable.

    I DO NOT recommend buying this game with this major bug.    … Expand

You start a coop mode, gain progress, unlock new missions, maps, vehicles but all your friends can do is follow you in those few vehicles they unlocked at the beginning.
    The terrain is getting more challenging, the cargo is getting heavier... You don't seem to have any problems because you unlock more and more big and powerful vehicles (and save them in your garage) . What about your friends? Well, they still follow you in their 3 silly vehicles because in order to get these monstrous trucks you have in your garage they have to: 1. buy them; 2. play the game solo; 3. use your vehicles. And still at the end of the day, after playing a lot (with you), they check their progress in solo mode and it turns out that all they've achieved is completing a tutorial.    … Expand

I got it through gamepass initially, but after playing with the logitech g923 wheel and shifter I had to give my money to them, plus I purchased all the dlc. The game is incredible deep, with lots of activities, it is also very detailed and aesthetically pleasing. The game requires tactical thinking, understanding which vehicle is best suited to the job, planning your routes is essential, and many roads, well me and you would not class them as roads. There's many upgrades and customisation available for each of the vehicles, including some great personalisation available. Initially the game is quite overwhelming, but I like a game like that. What I've come to realise quickly is its an incredibly relaxing experience. I put on my favourite artists on in the background while I play or jump into party chat with friends. With it being available on Gamepass on Xbox I would say give it a try, if you have a wheel I would say it adds massively to the immersion but a wheel is far from essential to enjoy this brilliant game.… Expand

If these shortcomings get ironed out I would give the game 9 to 10 out of 10 points.

    1. Community mods do not work reliably and are therefore useless
    I had a simple equipment mod downloaded and activated via the ingame mod browser. I bought the piece in game in the garage and fitted it to one of my trucks. It worked nice until when the next day I played the game the equipment was gone and with it my money for it. In game the piece of equipment was still available in the store but it looked like I never had bought it.
    This is extremely bad because imagine your whole fleet of vehicles were modded ones and you bought them with your limited money and the next day they would all be gone!? You literally would have to start over with the game! Imagine further you would at this point have played for about 100, 200 or even 300 hours, all gone! Therefore mods are as of now for me not usable.

    2. Control scheme is in part horrible and not freely customisable
    There are 4 predefined control schemes but unfortunately all of them are flawed and you can't customise them. For example in one of them the "handbrake" and the "winch release" are on the same button. So if you have the handbrake on and use the winch, as soon as you want to release the handbrake the winch will also get detached! If the controls were freely customisable one could at least correct such short comings but as of now you have to life with rubbish like this.

    3. Immersion breakers
    Every fuel station, production site and quest location has some huge running yellow and/or red dotted frames on the ground. Further the borders of the areas of the maps in the game that surround the usable terrain and that you can't cross with your vehicles are bordered by huge running stop signs that hover over the earth. It all looks really ugly and immersion breaking! And there is unfortunately no way to at least disable these. I at least don't need them.    … Expand

Its claimed this is a realistic element when the real life purpose of a which system to return an overturned truck to an upright position, it makes no sense for it to disable itself when the vehicle is over turned. The solution? An end game upgrade unlock meaning you have to suffer through the bulk of a play through before access to it. Crawling three quarters of a map only to role at the last moment is realistic the first time, frustrating when the truck you bring to recover it rolls in the same place trying to recover, infuriating when you are forced to fast recover the vehicles all the way back to the garage and repeat the journey again, get there only to find the warehouse doesn’t contain the options you need and nowhere is it marked what type of supplies are stored at any locations meaning its pot luck you will get the goods you need to complete the mission, only to roll again crawling to the next warehouse rinse and repeat the fury until the controller is broken. A realistic reflection of my real life failures it may be but I ask is this what you intended to deliver to the gamer? A miserable gut blow of realism in a world I came to for a fun escape from the real. This is a brutal game for a brutality sadistic gamer who is seeking to self-harm through the medium of game play.

    It is fascinating to see truck drivers who help us indirectly in our lives by contributing to the construction of bridges, the collapse of rocks, even the transport of consumables. And that is exactly what we are going to do in this SnowRunner, developed by Saber Interactive which is a direct sequel to MudRunner.

    It’s not an easy game, per se, but then it never claimed to be. Once you get your head around the time and patience aspect, SnowRunner is going to engross you. It won’t win any Game of the Year awards for being niche, but then neither does Train Simulator. If you can convince some friends to join you, then even better. But even as a solo experience, there’s some absolute joy to be had when you get stuck into it.
