Players have expressed significant dissatisfaction with "ON THE ROAD - The Truck Simulator," highlighting its lack of polish and numerous gameplay issues. While some gamers appreciate the potential and unique features, such as the ability to exit the truck, many feel that it falls short compared to competitors like Euro Truck Simulator 2, leading to a largely negative reception.
ON THE ROAD is the closest PlayStation gets to a Euro Truck Simulator-style autobahn sim. It models over 6,500 kilometres of German motorway and country road across 16 cities from Hamburg to Berlin, with licensed MAN and Scania rigs up to the Gigaliner, an economy layer for founding a company and hiring drivers, and the uncommon touch of stepping out of the cab on foot.
The ambition is real but the execution has not kept up. It is the lowest-rated game here, and both critics and players point to the same faults: dated visuals, clunky controls, poor traffic AI and lingering optimisation issues that leave it well short of the PC sims it emulates. It earns its place only as the most authentic long-haul German-road experience currently on console, a pick for dedicated sim diehards willing to forgive the roughness, not for newcomers.
