In recent years, a large and active community has emerged on our Discord server. Many members are therefore no longer active in this forum and contributions from new users were not answered or only answered late. We are therefore closing this forum with immediate effect.

    Hello there; I want to suggest some roads which are missing in my opinion. As i always try to drive the real Flixbus route, these three (for now) roads should be there.


    1. It is actually there but not active. The intersection in the screenshot, we can use while coming from Graz to Linz but we cannot enter that road to go to Graz from Linz because it is not open to enter. While it is already done there, i don't understand meaning of being closed. It would be better to open, so that we won't go to Graz via Vienna!

    2. Roads from Regensburg to Linz : I remember someone else also mentioned about this connection. It will shorten the road to Linz and Vienna and it seems a real must there as Flixbus follows that route via Passau in the real life.

    3. Bielefeld-Paderborn : These two beautiful cities are there and we can drive some routes which includes both cities. However, to go to Paderborn from Bielefeld, we have to drive a long road instead of going there directly which is the real route. It is another missing road to connect two cities.

    There are surely more but that's enough for now. I hope you will take my advices into consideration for the next update. Thanks in advance!

    I want to count some opinions to do:

    1. I believe we need some improvements more than DLCs at the moment. For example, please make the map to be able to select our route except selecting cities. Some routes don't have "places for resting" and we need to change the route but i have to check the roads as i cannot select on navigation/map.


    2. Map DLCs we like generally but in my opinion, there is something lacking to give the feeling of the countries. France highway is same with Germany in the game or same for Austria/Switzerland. There can be similarities but even signs are so different in real life, you can check Austrian road signs for example. France highways have different lines , "Cut Lines" on the right etc. If you care these details, it will make us happier. Not only landmarks.


    3. AI: I know you have improved a lot since the sim was out but still, AI needs some touches. Plus, you can add more AI vehicles.


    4. Economy: I believe, you could work and bring this instead of Football DLC or Tourist Bus. Things you have added in TBS, would be very good for Fernbus as you all know. We want to establish our company and improve. TBS System seems enough to enjoy the sim.

    5. The Weather: We have 4 seasons and even foggy scenes. So, it would be nice to see the real weather in the simulator. Take Flight Sim as example and you can make the sim take weather reports from the closest Metar Stations (Like Frankfurt Airport EDDF) and get into the game world. Sure it needs internet connection, so Offline weather mode must also go on as it is in the sim.


    6. I don't know if it is possible or not, but it would be nice to add another feature. You can implement all Flixbus schedule for AI Flixbus busses in the map, they can enter cities and bus stations just like us or go out of bus station when it is time to depart. You can check Flight Sims for it again but i know this is so hard to do, not like other requests.


    7. I know that you are working to improve sounds in the game but please take care of it more. They need to be improved a lot.


    8. Bus and AI Trucks Physics: I know you improved a lot and i m happy with the result but the driving physics still need to be improved. Along with our buses, please improve AI Trucks speed and physics.


    There were more in my mind but i remembered these at the moment. Please give an attention to my words :) Instead of Map or Bus DLCs, if we improve the game such way, it will be more stable and better. Then we will go on DLCs for map and buses.

    By the way, next map DLC after Be-Ne, should be Czechia and Poland. Especially Czechia and Prague is so crucial for Fernbus routes from Berlin, Dresden to Austria etc. Thanks in advance.

    I have mentioned about this in Feedback topic, There are many routes in Germany either. Sometimes i have to change route and make it longer but still i cannot reach sometimes.

    And again, people answered me by saying that we can give a break wherever we are, yes we can but it doesn't accept it as rest to give XP and makes it "-" point.

    We need some more Resting Areas on the roads, there are routes with lack of Resting Areas and we cannot reach in 4 hours which causes - points in the end. I would love to see different style of Resting area but even if you put the same model, it is ok.


    Meanwhile, there was different Resting Area around new Luxembourg, it was different than others but no resting green lines placed, just gas oil. However, the building was there, i think you should make it resting area while there is good model.

    I would love to see Mercedes Benz coaches, not only Tourismo but also Travego. However, MB creates so much licence problems. For me, that's ok to see them without licence either just like Comfortclass.

    Before anything else; I want to see an economy system just like TBS. It will change it a lot, to establish our company and trying to buy buses and pay them, selecting true routes to get more money with true bus types. But for it, they need to improve passenger numbers and make a rational AI to create true number of pax for the routes. So that, it will make difference and we will have to open/close true routes and stops.

    Another issue i want to say, Fernbus can have a real weather engine implemented. As we have 4 seasons in the game, the game can get closest real weather from the closest stations. If there is someone who enjoys Flight Sims just like me will understand what i mean. I remember there was such option in Omsi even. It can be option for the user to set in game settings if they want Online realistic weather or not.

    I was following and it was mentioned before to bring some classic coaches in the game. It would be so good along with the economy mode as we can buy them as "Used Coaches" and cheaper then "New Coach from Factory" option.


    There will be more things to write but in time, no need at once :))
