For cases where a traffic jam still occurs and locks everything up, we added a “reset traffic button” that is accessible in the game’s menu.Additionally, we fixed a number of traffic lights and added missing ones. We were on it! We worked on smart overtaking of your bus and reduced waiting times on intersections and we significantly reduced traffic jams that piled up over time. We heard you! Too many traffic jams! Cars being weird.Route planning of NPC buses has been improved so they should not get stuck in areas with lots of parked cars and allow for much smoother traffic overall and a lot less traffic jams.Buses driven by NPCs will leave stations earlier if other buses or players want to use the same stop and thus move out of the way.Also, when the bus is full, passengers walk away and don’t block your bus.Of course some ”unique cases” might occur from time to time but you’ll feel a big improvement overall! They now move faster to allow for fluid boarding and unboarding.Pedestrians will be more environmentally aware: A lot less crossing the street in awkward places.It solves the biggest annoyances you sent our way on Discord, reports, mails and tweets and makes the drive experience a lot more enjoyable and fluid. The improvement process had multiple areas united under a common theme: Smooth Simulation. While we can't reveal everything today but shorten the time until release, we’ll keep you informed with video clips of our fixes and improvements □□ Follow on Social Media and join our Discord to stay up to date. We are working on a major update to Bus Simulator 21 – Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop – that will come to PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, PS4, and PS5 on May 23,2023. Now, we can’t wait to show you what’s coming. This allowed us to make significant improvements to many of the areas you sent us feedback for and which we could not tackle due to the complexity and dependencies of all interconnected systems! To get more things done during that focused development, we also added more people to the development team. That’s why we decided to reserve a longer period of time without releases. But over time, we could not make any more meaningful improvements without going deeper into core systems. Before we could touch core systems, we already had to close everything up and go into the next testing phase. In the past, our release and testing schedule didn’t allow us to do changes on a deep level. We now have some! Thank you for your continued support for us and the game over the past months! And we are excited to give you a peek on what’s next for Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop. Still, if driving busses is not your idea of fun and the last few games never interested you, then I do not see this one winning you over either.We know that you’ve been waiting for more news on Bus Simulator 21. Granted it is not reinventing the wheel with what it is doing, but it is certainly a bigger and better experience than what we had before. I think it is more than fair to say that if you liked Bus Simulator 18, you will love Bus Simulator 21. It is worth noting that there is multiplayer available in Bus Simulator 21, but I never got the chance to experience it while I was playing it for this review. There is a fair bit of customization that you can do here to each bus such as changing advertising and various colors. Visually, I have to say that not a ton has changed since the last game, but it still looks decent enough. More advanced AI in terms of the pedestrians and other vehicles on the street as well as troublesome weather can lead to issues with you keeping your bus service running nice and smooth. I like how Bus Simulator 21 throws a lot of curveballs your way to keep you on your toes. The cool thing about this is that you can jump into any one of your busses at any time and take direct control of it. Here you have to plan various bus routes, check out different bus dealers to buy new busses, keep your busses running and make sure that the books are balanced all the while delivering a professional public transport service.ĭriving the busses is of course what you will want to do, but as you expand and have more and more busses operating at the same time, you can take a more hands-off approach. Bus Simulator 21 offers a very interesting and more refined manager mode. While driving your passengers from point a to point b is clearly the main goal of what you have to do.
