I think Option A is the best, that way we can play with the rest while you guys are able to give the Sea-to-Sky the love it deserves :D

Look at a map : between BC and Ontario there is 3 provinces : Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, so there is still a very long way to go if Promods want to make Ontario. ;)
(which I don't know if they want to make it)
On my end, I live in New Brunswick, so I expect my province to be made in... probably 10 to 12 years. :) However, that would give me plenty of time to practice my skills and hopefully be able to create some nice areas myself. Always thought I could do more than just touristic signs on ETS2...

Regarding the different scenarios, I firmly believe that plan A is the best, so people can start driving to Canada. There aren't a lot of map expansions in ATS, and Promods Canada will definitely make a difference. This would also give you more time and less pressure to work on the new zones, while players might help you fixing potential bugs in released areas. Option D has also a downside: if you add the BC-99, you might need to add Whistler - not necessarily as a city but definitely as a go-through place - and possibly Squamish. Which could delay the release even more.

By releasing Lillooet and Pemberton afterwards, you allow players to discover British Columbia step by step while focusing on the next steps for your map. It's a win-win situation. Not necessarily a bad thing at all.

I think C would be the best option. It seems silly to me to have ajungrei93’s work available but not use it, however option C wouldn't take as long to implement as B or D. Then you could work on implementing option D in a later update. Personally I wouldn't mind waiting for C, hopefully it would take so long as everyone's at home.

Yes just ignore the Rocky Mountains, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba only to reach Ontario. It takes a couple of days to drive from Ontario to BC and vice versa, and driving within Ontario is massive alone from Windsor to the Quebec border is 8 hours, from Toronto to Kenora is about a 20 hour drive. From Ontario it takes 2 days to drive to the Maritimes and it takes 2-4 days to drive the Western Provinces and even longer to the Territories (Yukon and the Northwest Territories; Nunavut doesn't have roads.) Canada and it's provinces are massive except the Maritimes.

From the video, it's quite good. But when I look at the map it somehow seems a bit small.
If you imagine how big the map map for ETS2 is. But it can also be because I am so spoiled because of the size of the card, I mean.

That's because it's first version if you look at first version of european promods which was 7 years ago it was also small and it grew gradually over the years to its current size

Also I think the amount of detail in that map is going to be exceptional. They have always been quality over quantity and I feel like this is going to be another level

Yes, I agree with you on all points! However, I find the size of the card too small and, in my view, has no relation to the effort and work. Do you understand what i mean But I can really feel that I am so spoiled by the size at ETS.
