Alright, first of all, a disclaimer. I can’t confirm whether American Truck Simulator‘s version of Chicago – famously nicknamed the Windy City – is authentically blustery. For one, you can’t get out of your lorry in ATS. Sure, the flags you can see from inside the cab are fluttering, but that could be some form of arcane developer trickery. For two, I’ve never been to real world Chicago, so have no idea just how windy it is as a point of comparison.
What I can confirm, having hauled some pickups from St Louis to Chicago in ATS’ Illinois DLC – out today, May 14th – is that driving into the latter for the first time is as memorable an experience as the best of the truck sim’s other motoring metropolises.
