Chapter 7: Selecting a Server for Online Play

Common Servers:

Simulation 1	Most popular, most realistic
Simulation 2	Less populated
Arcade	Casual server, no collisions
ProMods	Requires additional map DLC + specific mods
ProMods Arcade	Requires additional map DLC + specific mods + no collisions

Recommendation for new players: Start with Simulation 2.

Precautions

When entering the server for the first time, do not go directly to Calais, as it's a high-risk area for new players. It's recommended to familiarize yourself with the controls in other cities first, such as:

Hamburg
Berlin
Paris

This will be more comfortable. Rules you must follow:

Most Important:

Do not hit people
Do not drive against traffic
Do not block the road
Do not overtake maliciously
Do not insult others

Otherwise, you will be banned. Serious violations may result in a permanent ban.
