[Poll 4 DLC#3] Buses section

mcwcow · May 6, 2011

Vote for your favourite idea for buses and hopefully CO might consider them in their next DLC...

[Pick one favourite!! And suggest for trams for I make that poll on sunday!!]

Buses
Open-top. Say it's Ayats Volvo B7L
Crown-Ikarus
Dutch Amfibus
General Motors Rapid Transit Series
Ikarus 260
Ikarus 280
Irisbus Citelis
Jonckheere Transit
MAN NG312
Mercedes Benz Sprinter City 77
New Bus for London
Scania Omnicity
Solaris Urbino 10
Solaris Urbino 15
Solaris Urbino 18
Viseon RTS
Volvo B10
Wright StreetCar

And to fill up the gap and make it to 25 items(Just to offer more choices), I'll add these into the vote.

Alexander Dennis Enviro 400, Big brother of the Jubilee Compact, perhaps?
Designline Euro V, lesser likely to breakdown than Maurice Futura, but also carry slightly fewer passengers.
King Long 6126AU, cheap Chinese coaches suitable for long distance point to point service.
Mercedes Benz T2/Vario/0814D, perhaps the most popular midi-bus in the world around the 1980-1990s.
Mitsubishi Aero Star, One of the more popular model of single decker around Asia.
Tecnobus Gulliver, modern minibus that runs on battery.
Toyota Coaster, it's low price and maintenance need attracts many operators to use it to run sur-urban routes.

Isn't that a recruitment poster for the US army?

I'd guess that people are too lazy to check what all the possibilities are, at the same time not wanting to make a vote without knowing the other contestants. There's just too many options - 5-7 would be enough.

On a side note, in my opinion a DLC for 5€ should contain a bit more than 5 vehicles - at least some new cool functionality, another scenario or a map. I'm sure I won't pay for new vehicles while a lot of them have already been made by other players as mods and I can get them for free.

Well, are there any custom made vehicles? Where can I find them?

So, it doesn't look like any of the vehicles in this poll made it into DLC #3. Still, there is always the possibility something might make it into the Tokyo expansion or, dare i say it, maybe a DLC #4?

giladteller · May 20, 2011

It's also too late for Tokyo expansion pack. Beside that, the expansion pack will probably contain vehicles from Tokyo, while most suggestions here are from Europe and America.

This thread was unfortunately abandoned by the author. So it's useless now.
Also I never thought a pool with so many options would go anywhere.

to be honoust, the one transport type i think we do not need more of are busses
by far most choise is avaible in busses, i whould love some more monorails...

giladteller · Jun 14, 2011

More monorails are needed urgently.
I think that the one thing we don't need is another ferry. In my opinion it is the most useless transport type in the game.

Not most options, all options are buses. This is a bus poll.
I think the touristic bus with open deck is nice and I would like to see it.

Ferries for me are one of the best transportation types. Generates as much money as metro, its fast and handle a lot of passengers. Too bad it's not reliable. Even AI boats can screw your lines. Helicopters are quite useless. They are good but just as boats, get stuck easily.
Until they fix it, boats need careful planning before using, but can help a lot if used with sucess. I use them always when I can.
But sure, monorails are more urgent.

I think he was commenting on the relative number of bus types available in game, compared with the other transport options. 15 buses, 7 trams, 6 metros, 3 ferries and 3 helicopters in the base game.

Marnit · Jun 15, 2011

true, and with dlc it gets even more so, due to one of them having 2 busses instead of having a boat
