My RTX 3080 and Ryzen 9 3900x system could not maintain solid 60 FPS in 1440p. Tourist Bus Sim is plagued with optimization issues. Let's move on to the most important red flag - optimization. It is a nice touch by the devs most likely used as an incentive to purchase this game. For regular bus routes there is no check-in process, so passengers just get on the bus.Īlso do not forget that buses purchased for Fernbus will also be added to your DLC library in Tourist Bus Sim or vice versa. In shuttle mode, you have to check-in passengers individually based on the reservation name (no express check-in). Surprisingly, passengers never load their luggage even when you pick them up from the airport. You can also purchase property to offer housing to your drivers.Ĥ) Passengers actually board the bus instead of teleporting into the bus as in Fernbus. It is a bummer there is no visible body damage, but there is visible dirt on the bus if you do not wash it. You have to schedule service visits for your buses to fix body damage or oil change. You also have to refuel and wash your bus as well. You have to drive to the port to pick up your newly-purchased bus.
TOURIST BUS SIMULATOR DRIVER
You gotta use your driver instincts to slow down.ģ) In the company mode you get your own SUV and a buggy. Sometimes the game does not tell you to slow down. You have to really watch your speed limit or you will crash. Slow-paced driving doesn't necessarily translate into boring gameplay because making it through twisty roads feel more satisfying than ever. On some portions of the map there is a fairly short intercity highway, so you will end up driving through two-lane twisty side roads most of the time.Ģ) Due to the nature of the roads, the speed limit is lower than in Fernbus. Entering and leaving the airport feels just as great as in the Frankfurt airport from Fernbus. My favorite location is a detailed airport with multiple entrances and designated bus stops. There are also a few relatively big cities. There are plenty of these small towns around the island. If you have visited small touristy towns anywhere around the globe, you probably know what I mean. Here are the main differences from Fernbus that I came up with:ġ) The setting is different, and it feels real. Traffic density around 65-70 seems to be the sweet spot. You can also lower traffic density, but then the island feels empty. If you wish to complete your route without accidents, you gotta be patient and forgiving because the AI will cause traffic jams or accidents. For context, stop and yield signs are still present. My impatient ego definitely appreciates that about the location. On the bright side, there are very few traffic lights. Get ready to hit the curb or anything on your way while making a turn on a road meant for compact vehicles.
TOURIST BUS SIMULATOR DRIVERS
Just as in Fernbus, AI drivers are aggressive and leave you very little space to manoeuvre around. Driving through twisty intercity roads or through tiny city roads surrounded by dumb AI will be your main challenge. You are surrounded by tourists, but you certainly aren't the one on vacation.
You basically drive tourists from point A to B on coach buses or shuttles. I think it closer to Northwestern Africa than Europe. Instead of central Europe, the game takes place on the Canaries island of Fuerteventura. Tourist Bus Sim is a spinoff or a reskin of the Fernbus Simulator. There are plenty of pros and cons, which I will try to explain thoroughly down below. I recommend it because it is a unique game set on a real touristy island.
