A good simulator of trophy raiding, set in the scenery of the formidable hinterland of the USSR. Regardless of the apparent simplicity - you think, to deliver the line from point Well, to point B - Spintires: MudRunner, in order to achieve this goal, forces you to invent a whole project. The usual strategy for actions at any location: we choose a simple car, with which we begin to conduct a study of the territory. Subsequently, the search already has a spectacle about the following, which trucks are presented at the location, where they are located, what position they are in, whether refueling, repairs and equipment are required. Then we figure out which of the trucks must be converted into a loading crane, timber truck, fuel tanker, tow truck, etc. Next, we build a path of movement, taking into account the landscape of the territory, the length of movement, such as obstacles, will it be necessary to force a stormy river or crawl around the small forest more correctly, spending more diesel fuel, but not drowning the car; or would it not be more correct to exchange the dangerous swampy swamps for a dashing mountainous serpentine. We are trying to strictly observe the decision plan as it is likely to be: and now the laborer "Laptezhnik" is loaded with long lengths with the help of the mighty "Kirovtsa" and, under the howling of his own blocked bridges, crawls through the clearing, leaving behind a dark column of soot and scaring the crows with a whistle; from the second loading point, the Ural, crippled as a result of overturning on its side, immediately moved out, loaded with its crane-manipulator, but, in attempts to bypass the checkpoint in roundabout ways, buried itself in a clay mess and stalled, not reaching the tree with a winch and helplessly rotating all six wheels, burned the final liters of solarium.
He is already supported by killing all the flora on its own path, knocking down birches like matches, the battle giant MAZ is in a hurry - a four-axle rocket truck, with a 1200-liter tank filled to the top with fuel and a trailer full of spare parts. Well, at this time, trying to go around a gigantic puddle in a private courtyard, the eared ZAZ-968 is hysterically rattling with its own 45-horsepower motor. Often, despite the perceived stupidity of the rework, the game can find a way to get out. Overturned a loaded timber truck, falling off a cliff, with all this tumbled over the roof and caught a tree between the axles of the rear wheels? Using manipulations with the box and the winch, if the truck lies on the roof, then the support of another tractor, you can actually take yourself out of any ass. My friend and I delayed a week to go through the "Flood" map, using the ZIL-130 models as the initial trucks. Or whatever your idea - to climb in rear-wheel drive KrAZ trucks on road tires into a closed garage at the Pribrezhye location along the southern slope, yes, along the mountain, with a slope of 60 degrees, through the taiga. Subsequently, 80 hours in Spintires and 40 hours in MudRunner, this idea no longer sounds so crazy.
Two updates have already been released, bringing new maps and trucks to the game; The extreme update flashed with a very fascinating find with the presence and absence of various sizes of logs at the loading points, which adds replayability to the map, as well as the need to adapt to the newly formed situation at the loading points each time. Obviously, the game has room to grow, gamers have long been demanding detailed exteriors of trucks and tracked vehicles; for hardcore, I would add a division by fuel type: gasoline, diesel fuel and the ability to inflate tires for various types of road surfaces; also the game lacks animals, the fauna is shown only by a couple of species of birds. Launch cattle in yards, chickens, geese on rural paths, old people on dumps, grandmothers in vegetable gardens, shift workers at trailers, warriors smoking cigarettes at checkpoints, and even without this, a video game, without hesitation, is worthy of attention, especially if you take into account, that there are no rivals on the horizon.
