The Scout Class Needs Some Change | SnowRunner

[HaulinAzzzovs]

100% agree. I’ve reached the point where the vehicles I use aren’t allowed to have spare tires, fuel or repair points unless they’re a support vehicle. Gives me a reason to use the smaller scouts and gives me a chance to use the Loadstar, 750, Rezvani & so forth to support them. The Croc, Tatra 805 & so forth, I’ll also use as support vehicles, but they only support the cargo haulers once scouting is complete.

ANK was my scout truck early game. P12 was my support truck.
Now, Cat 745C is my scout truck and ZikZ 612H is my support truck.

I've never used Scouts outside of turning in scout trailers to get a bit more money from maps. And even then, I'd use big trucks to pull scout trailers and lift scout trucks in truckbeds to the trailer store. There's never been a point to using them in my game.

Or make scouts able to not sink in terrain like in spin tires

Add transporting people in the game. Most trucks can only sit two thats the only thing scouts do better in this game add it to the game.

Old games like spintires and mudrunner scouts are used to go though tight places, so if snowrunner were to buff up their scout that'll make the game better.

There are a lot of terrific ideas in the comments here. Give these sorts of vehicles more reasons to exist and be used. I hope you are reading this Saber!
Maps could also be made so that there are routes that larger vehicles simply cannot fit down, which are required to unlock things, trigger tasks etc, or even unlock routes bigger vehicles can then subsequently use.

make scout its own class and support a different class and move the apache and f750 and stuff like that over and leave the actual scout like trucks in the scout class and then add more new trucks to support

Anybody playing this game I would highly advise you to take is slow and don't always just use the best fastest vehicle. I get more enjoyment by using a truck that barely can do the task, then if you fail switch to a truck that can handle it. If you just hammer thru mission with the best DLC truck you are missing out on the progression and challenge the game offers

[calebjoseph]

I can't remember the name, but I've used the red-orange Azov as a scout vehicle because it's just can't get stuck. I know it's a skill issue, but also some of the scouts can get stuck really easily so why waste time getting stuck

[Don_Mag]

Best scout? Crocodaile. Realy it is OP.

[GunnerK]

Scouts should be faster in scouting and navigating the map than Trucks

[hermanjohnson]

Most Scouts don't have the traction to help downed vehicles. Off-road class and larger anyway.
And the Burlak 6X6 is so obviously the best scout. Even if a bit tippy at times. Yar 87 and Tatarin too
It's like trying to pretend that the 963 or Mastodon aren't good. All mentioned trucks aren't perfect. But all so blatantly overpowered.
And for off-roading, support makes sense. But for trucking support covers a wide variety of requirements.
Similar to the real life automobile industry, the truck classes are based primarily on size and weight.

[Mikyramatrucksleggends]

100% sure.
scouts like ford are good if yuo run out of fuel
scouts like burlak or loadstar wich can have crane are good to put yuor vechile back on his wheels and recover the cargo that you lost.
scouts like tatarin not only are good at scouting but they are also good at helping other stuck trucks
Maybe at the beginning of the game yuo will use small scouts but fro now and for me small scouts are not that usefull anymore.
In regions like amur and kola, smalls scounts are unusuable.
for scouting, i would use tatarin and big suots like it
