ProMods in the UK
Posted: 18 Dec 2022 17:15
Firstly, I'd like to say just how much I love how good the UK looks with ProMods, and has for some time. As a real life truck driver who works on containers out of Felixstowe, I can confirm that I don't think you could get that area much more accurate than it is...aside from making a driver wait for an hour at Port Of Felixstowe!
There are a few things I would love to see in future releases which would make it mod more realistic and enjoyable, and I wonder if the developers might keep this in mind as time allows. In Cambridgeshire, the area around Cambridge where the A14 and M11 meet was changed in 2020 and would love to see this reflected in the game eventually. I would also love to see the Catthorpe Interchange (where the A14, M1, and M6 meet). Currently, even with ProMods, it's a cloverleaf junction with access in all directions from all roads. In real life, this isn't the case; from the A14, you can either continue onto the M6 Westbound or join the M1 Northbound, from the M6 you can only continue onto the A14 Eastbound or join the M1 Southbound, and from the M1, you can only join the M6 if you're travelling North and can only join the A14 if travelling South. It's clearer when looked at from a map or actually driven. I, and I'm sure many other UK based drivers, would also really like to see the whole of the A1 from the M25 all the way up to Scotland if that were possible.
Obviously, I expect these are huge undertakings and I'm not under any illusion that they are quick or easy to do, even if the limitations of developing the game would even allow them. But if they are possible, I would love to see them in a future ProMods update.
