Drug Dealer Simulator 2 News

DevLog: Vroom vroom! Wait, what’s that ride?

There’s something brand new for y’all, Dealers.

There are now a lot of ways you can move around the map, and all of them have their pros and cons. You need not run everywhere on foot anymore if you don’t want to.

Time to show your status and buy a boat! Or something else.

[h2]Walking[/h2]
Pros: It’s free. You can get like that to nearly every spot on the island.
Cons: Takes time, duh. Also, you might encounter bandits who will try to rob you. Not fun.

[h2]Busses - Quicktravel[/h2]
Pros: Travelling by bus is relatively cheap and you can move between bus stops.
Cons: Busses drive only between 6 am and 10 pm, and there are not a lot of bus stops, actually.

Remember to buy a ticket!


[h2]Powerboat - manual control [/h2]
Pros: You can pack your entire coop party into the boat, there are no time restrictions, and you will not meet anyone who wants to rob you of your living. Oh, and you can stash some dope in your boat, too!
P.S.
There are different types of boats (smaller, bigger). In some of them you will be alone, sad but true. You have to earn a bigger boat.
Cons: Boats are EXPENSIVE. And if that’s not enough, you do need to refuel occasionally and you can dock only in permitted areas. Bummer.


[h2]Mainland transportation (car, bike) – Quicktravel[/h2]
Pros: Just like with a boat, you can travel with people, stash things in the car and travel at any point in time without a care in the world.
Cons: And just like with the boat, they are expensive, need to be refuelled, and you can’t just park anywhere.


So, time to sell a lot of dope and buy a boat! Or a car. Or you can be a cheap bunny and run everywhere on foot. The choice is yours!

DevLog: Dealer, how to deal?

Yo, so what’s the deal? Or, how do you deal?

In DDS2, dear Dealers, you will become a true person of business. And, as a person of business, you will need to set meetings with your clientele. To do this, use your trusty early 2000s phone. You know, this indestructible little brick that’s eternally burned into your memory if you ever had one.



You can meet your clients between 9 AM and 8 PM. If you respond to their messages quickly, you will earn more reputation, but if you ignore them, you will lose reputation. JUST LIKE IN REAL LIFE.

Reputation is generally a thing you should care about. If you are slow or don’t deliver at all, you’ll lose clients. You can’t run a business without clients!

On the other hand, if you take care of them, and maybe give them something extra, then they’re going to love you.

But how to wrap your mind around meetings with these dummiyour beloved clients? Well, every business shark needs a calendar! And you do get one in DDS2. Just take a look.



It's not that easy to cater to everyone. Each region has its preferred products. Once you get bigger and expand, you'll need employees to handle deliveries. Just select where you want them to work on the map, and leave the product for them in a deaddrop. Your people will take care of the rest and give you money once you talk with them (or invite them to the hideout).

However, the dealers you hire will get a share of your proceeds! Yes, the life of a dealer isn't easy. At first, it ain't much, but it's dishonest work. Only after working hard you can reap your rewards and live a life of luxury.

Taste a bit of it in the demo - incoming December 18.

DevLog: Incoming demo and the PRODUCT *wink wink*

How are you today, Dealers? Y’all ready for the upcoming demo? Good news: it’s almost here! On December 18, you’ll get a free sample of goodness to come. Make sure to play it, because this time it’s a time-limited demo. It’ll be up until January 2.

The demo will be LONG, and it will have a lot of things we planned for the full game. In the next few days, we’ll talk about what’s in the demo, how it works, and how you can use it.



Let’s start with…

THE DRUPRODUCT!


First, the facts.

In the demo, you will find 2 types of products (there will be many more in the full game): cannabis and amphetamine. You can either buy the product to sell or prepare it yourself.

If you choose to prepare the product, you can do it at a hideout.

[h2]So how to produce pot?[/h2]
  • Buy the ingredients: water, fertilizer, seeds.
  • Plant the seeds (e.g. in a growbox) to grow the plant.
  • Use the drier to dry the herbs.

[h2]And how to make amphetamine?[/h2]
  • Buy the ingredients. Different ingredients are needed depending on which recipe you choose. You can see the recipe in the cooker.
  • Buy a cooker and a pot.
  • Prepare the amphetamine base (amphetamine salts, according to one of three recipes).
  • Prepare the amphetamine using the cooker.

The above is a simple recipe, you’ll come across more advanced ones as you develop your cartel in the game.


However!

Making the product isn’t enough. You need to portion and pack it, too. To do it, you must have a laboratory tray, plastic bags or stretch wrap, and duct tape.

PSA: We do not encourage you to try this at home. You will fail anyway because these are not 100% accurate production processes. This is a game. “A great game!” you might say, and we would nod with approval. But still, just a game.

Have fun! And let us know how your chef career went in the demo. We have a special place for feedback on our Discord.

Remember – December 18 is the day. See ya on Isla Sombra!

Release date little FAQ
Q: When?
A: Q1 2024

We decided to push the premiere to the next year. We know you're waiting eagerly to play it, but here's the thing: we want to make the best game we can, and that takes time. We want it to be polished.

We're having the closed playtest, soon there will be an open demo. The goal is to get your feedback and apply it. This takes time because DDS2 is much, MUCH bigger than the first game. You'll see it yourself - the demo alone should take hours to complete! We hope it'll show you the scope of what we're trying to do, the care that we put into the game, and the reason why we want it to be just right.

Q: So, why?
A: The above. Also,

Psst, kids, want some DDS2?

[h2]IT’S TIME[/h2]

Time for a free DDS2 demo available for EVERYONE! It’s gonna be released on December 18!

Drug Dealer Simulator 2 takes you to the early 2000s. You land on Isla Sombra, a haven for cartels and small-time dealers.

The demo lets you taste HOURS of open-world gameplay in a beautiful tropical setting. Build your drug empire by growing, producing, and dealing together with your friends.

It’s a time-limited free sample, so make sure you get it while it’s there!

Aaaaand, you can play it with friends, of course! Get your game between Dec 18 and Jan 2.



The game is still work-in-progress, that’s why your feedback matters. Join our Discord (we just hit 20k members!) and help us become the ultimate crime overlo… Erm, I mean, help us make the game the best it can be.

Cheers, Dealers!
