Mezmerizing! Vacationed in Germany in 2015 and stayed a block away from Alexanderplatz. Bought Doner at the train station, walked all over Berlin on Xmas day. The BEST! You brought back some great memories.
Neukoln and Charlotenburg doners were my favorite. I lived in Berlin for 7 years. Spent my childhood there. Xmas in Berlin is the most beautiful thing ever.
When I was a bus driver in London in the early 90s we didn't have satnav, you had to go on a bus route you were going to drive as a passenger and just remember it. I started out with London Transport and drove the Route Master back then, apparently they'd just stopped doing the skid pan training ! Moved over to London & Country after that and they had a new fleet of Volvo double deckers, fantastic buses to drive. The money was crap back then but I loved the job, had my regular route, 127 in the Croydon area down to Purley. All the old dears were lovely, giving you sweets etc. Great memories. I'm now a self employed coffee machine engineer, bit of a change of direction, don't ask lol !! This looks great, might have to give this a go, thanks for the video.
I couldn't care less about fancy graphics, but I like that the subsystems of the bus are being simulated. To me, that goes a much longer way in terms of realism.
Just a small note from a real bus driver. There's a little protocol we always follow. We get on the bus, start it up, program the tachograph, operating modes, and so on, and when everything is ready, we let people on. We never let anyone on without checking first that everything is working, because if you let people on and something doesn't work, you'd have to get them off... And that's not cool. Good job anyways. :)
@@jaymac7203 lol..hence the phrase " Busmans holiday". I drove buses years ago in London and as I love driving it never really felt like work apart from the shift work . I'd still play this if I was a bus driver. I love flying as well ( Cessna 172 ) in real life and love flight sims. Who'd have thought lol !!
I'm a former transit driver and I have played this game for a couple hours. I have not played it in months but I can say that it's slightly fun. It gets a little mundane after a while. I wish there was more exciting features like having to deal with erratic passengers, or something equally exciting. Because that's something that transit drivers we deal with every single day. Plus being an American, I kind of wish there was some American city options
I know this Hood. The details are astonishing its almost a 1:1 Map. Only a few minor things who don´t match in my opinion. However i have never seen a Map with such 1:1 details of a City. And yeah Bicycle and pedestrian are missing in the overall Berlin experience. But it may still come.
Yeah, I can just imagine, coming home after a long shift of driving a real bus and playing this, at least everyone paid, no free loaders or abuse 😅 The bus looked pretty cool, clean cab, the iBus & ticket machine was working and the windscreen was clean 😂 11:06 that Mercedes just pulled out, typical Merc driver😡
Love it emgee 😆....I drove buses in the early 90s in South London, most of the time things were fine with other traffic and passengers. I do remember a couple of occasions where I had problems , I remember indicating to pull away from a bus stop at Carshalton train station, looked in my right wing mirror and nothing there, as I pulled away a red XR3i came flying down the side of me , honking his horn and then decided once in front of me to jump on his brakes ! I was doing about 25mph by then, not quick but a bus is heavier than a car ( there's a surprise ) and does not anchor up as quick as a car...needless to say I hit the brakes and hit the back of this idiot's car, up went the tailgate, bumper pushed in, glass shattered ! damage to my bus, the number plate swinging on one screw and that was it !! Luckily I had witnesses to say it wasn't my fault, some passengers said he was driving like a dick and came out of nowhere. He said he'd only just got the car, the bus company didn't pay him a penny from his claim. Another incident in Tooting high street, guy jumped over the pavement barrier straight into the front of my bus, I braked , hit him and sent him flying back over the barrier, to my surprise he got up and walked away !! an old dear on my bus hurt her knee as it hit the seat edge in front of her, other than that all ok.
I'm a bus driver and these games feel so empty. A real bus is full of sensations, noises, people you talk to; you feel its weight, you feel the wind pushing you... In the game, it doesn't happen. It feels empty to me. I am not saying its a bad game, it's just not meant for real bus drivers. :P
Do those road imperfections (like at 2:55) actually have any effect on the driving physics, or is it just a visual detail? Visually I miss those "polished stripes" which are present in every tarmac road. It doesn't look very realistic without it.
@@georgivanev7466 still is but since the launch of the game the performance is becoming shit as every update rolls out, this is what i see from the reviews, it is early access yes which they have stated it will take 8-16 months but now it has been 21 months.
11:02 Now thats the realistic bus driving experience. Drivers behaving like they own the road and got the right of way even when they don't. Damn dangerous to cut off a bus. I'm a bus driver myself and I wouldn't touch my brakes in this situation. If you choose to play stupid games you will win a stupid prize. I won't risk my passengers health and you'll loose against 25 tons.
@@Xpertgamingtech it will be less, yeah. The problem is .... the tech isn´t moving forward fast enought for the mainstream people, cause companies like nVidia and AMD can squeeze us with little performance boosts with every new generation. But taking double the money for every gen. Just look at the Framerates in the current Unreal Demos ..... It´s just pathetic that a 4090 isn´t able to handle this for around 2000€
The graphics are fine, but the way it gains speed and the lack of tilt when turning, or inertia effect when braking makes it very unreal. Whoever did this simulation never drove a bus in his life. Thanks for the video.
Very good! Just the people need some upgrades. People are so integral part of being a bus driver that they could use some higher quality models, facial expressions, animation and output.
If it were me, I would have been on my phone while driving, emailing the local authorities about the state of the roads. And I would have definitely got out to clear the rubbish around the bus stop. Not my job, maybe, but best to keep things tidy!
We're getting the electric Citaro at my work next year and I'm very excited. I'd choose electric over diesel in a bus any day in terms of comfort, but a lot of them aren't nearly as reliable yet as diesels. So to have an electric Mercedes might just be the perfect bus
Great video as usual. I was expecting a bit more from the engine update though. Cars spawning in the distance, passengers clipping through one another and road lines being drawn right in front of the bus are not conducive to immersion. And that nuclear strength lighting on the passengers faces when they enter is something you'd expect in a 30s horror flick.
Did you enable Nanite+preserve area to all meshes including foliage ? from what i understood this might give you few extra frames and improve preformance ? do you desrtoy asstes or hide them ? because recreating assets is very taxing on your system.
They need to do that in the game engine core and make it a permanent feature. But the way these game developers work is they're just updating the engine version without optimizing any assets to the new engine version features, which is so sad. Practically no difference in game performance or looks between Unreal ver. 4.5 and 5.
Ich glaub, dass du es alleine nicht schaffen würdest. Du würdest dich überarbeiten und bevor du es verkaufen kannst gibt es immer wieder Sachen die du neu machen müsstest
I quite like the game actually, but I too have a problem with it's overall performance in some areas. I know my computer isn't a top level one, but come on. It's been in alpha/beta (w/e) for several years at this point.
The game is very beautiful, but the contrast in the game image is too much, the colors are too pale. If this can be changed from the image settings, the game can be played more comfortably.
The most important thing here is a VR headset which is definitely there but which is somehow never mentioned. Without is game wouldn’t be a half as realistic.
If the game runs terribly on your PC, I think you should consider getting the ryzen 9 5900x or 5950x. 3900x is suffered much from cpu bottleneck as you are using 3080ti
Bus interior shadow not good, interior glass reflection is not showing up. Other vehicles shadows are glitching in close distance, also decals on the roads arr glitching or flickering. Looks like their LOD(level of detail) is set very close, thats why shadows, decals etc showing details when we driver is very close to them. Passengers do not have realistic animation. Other than these, the game looks photoreal!
Is the map real life or fictional? (by the way, thank you for the video, I didn't know this game existed although I like driving games since I was a child).
@@phili_f1398 wow. It's a very interesting game. I really wonder why it isn't widespread. I've never stumbled across it in recommendations or read about it in simulator news website or forums.
The game looks good except for people. The streets are empty, the passengers' looks and animations are like from 2010 or even earlier.
The Streets are empty? I see a lot of cars man.
@@American_2 there are no people on the sidewalks
Yes that's true. People move and act like ghosts, not living people. This should be fixed in former updates.
Yeah it also doesn't help the realism that people can walk THROUGH other people 😂
It's a driving simulator, yes. But seeing people flying through others is funny/ridiculous and breaks every immersion

It should more in this game. Amazing detail. I think Its visual detail currently.
I love your video this is my favorite channel I wish you all the good luck keep up the good work
the sound of the blinker springing back sounds extremely like COD shotgun sound effects
Do they have an India or Amalfi Coast version? That would be a pretty intense experience.
I've driven down the Amalfi coast in a Fiesta, from Naples to Sorrento, narrow windey roads ! Wouldn't wanna do it in a bus lol !!
The temptation to give it the full Keanu Reeves Speed is too great
They really should have a 'Speed' scenario with multiple tracks.

Wait... did the AI just sense that he wanted to pull out into traffic and stopped to let him in?!?! Thats nuts!
When a bus is at a stop and has it's blinker on that it wants to go, you HAVE to stop.
They just coded that in.
