[POLL] What Map do you play on the most?

I was just thinking about what map the majority of the players of BeamNG play on most frequently. Mine has to be West Coast, USA, by FAR. Next up would be Utah, then East Coast.

 

East coast is the best map, change my mind.

 

You're missing the Automation Test Track FYI.

^
When are we ever going to get info on the map updates?

 

East Coast for sure. It’s the most reminiscent of home for me.

 

Utah, I can drain a full tank just cruising around the trails at 50 MPH.

 

I would consider it a mod since it is not available with the stock/vanilla version of Beam

but... i will add it

 

?

Yes it is.

 

My favorite map is JRI (and Italy too actually), but my most used map is by far gridmap, simply because it’s the most convenient for doing modding stuff. I really need to like actually play the game more.

 

ECUSA’s trees are too brightly colored. Change my mind.

 

I won’t, but that doesn’t stop me from liking it.

 

I thought that you needed to have Automation Installed before you could get the map, am I wrong

 

Yeah, it comes with the game. No Automation needed.

 

Italy is hands-down my favorite map. beautifully detailed, lots of variation, and the Traffic Tool works great on it. I hope more maps come out that compare in size and detail!

 

Currently: Italy
Overall: ECUSA
Favorite: ECUSA

 

Gridmap: mostly for vehicle testing

 

Let's see...gridmap isn't set up for AI, too depressing. WCUSA is super laggy and the AI there is bad. East Coast USA is best for AI but needs an update. Automation is Automation, Italy is....one car per session...A lot of this depends on AI, and because my laptop is shit, so I really have to go with Utah because of the hillside, windy road. Mostly because you can test cars with AI's there. Not like I can even run ECUSA with Traffic AI more than 3 cars.

If I had a much better rig, Italy or ECUSA might be my favorite or most played.

 

I use Grid Map the most for testing purposes.

However, Italy is by far my favourite map, although long loading times prevent me from using it often.

 

Gotta be small island, it's a road course, a rally stage, and an offroad paradise

 

Gridmap has AI roads, kind of, it is interesting with traffic how AI drives in nothingness like there would be a road. Not on pure grid though, just the normal gridmap with jumps and all.


Gridmap is one I play most, almost solely as my playing is mostly testing and building, tweaking etc. quite rarely I get chance to actually sit down and have proper driving session, yet still I can't get anything completed, maybe that is modder's feature or some condition, either way, Gridmap 90% of time.

 

American Road

https://www.beamng.com/resources/american-road.3100/

which got recently updated and has become even better.

• The best "German Autobahn feeling" highway that I have found to date. Main loop is 25 kilometers long and allows you non stop speeding across the countryside. Great speed feeling, too.
  
• There is a secondary highway with has seperated lanes which is another 20 kilometers or so I think and leads into the main highway.
  
• Lots of country roads which are very dangerous because they for the most part invite you to drive very fast which is all fine... except for the moment you come out of a elegant high speed curve at well over 200 km/h only to see a 90 degree turn less than 75 meters away.
  
• Glorius mountain roads which which again have more than one nasty surprise. Going downhill at high speed and then without warning there is a brutal turn and you barely have time to even hit the brakes before you slam into a guardrail so hard that the remains of your cars would easily fit into a pigeon.
  
• Dirt roads, mud roads and a mountain clibm off road tour that is as perilous as it is beautiful.
