I live in Antwerp myself and I can tell you it's a much more beautiful city than represented in the game. The 'mayor's palace' is actually the Central Station and it's absolutely stunning. You also didn't drive through the the old town as you wouldn't in real life

The building that says Chocolate, houses "Chocolate Nation". Kinda like a museum (but not as boring) about chocolate. ;) It's very well done and if you go to Antwerp, it's definately worth a visit.

I'm loving the regular uploads once again. Keep er going.

Loving these videos. Relaxing and yet leaving me wanting longer journey's

In Ghent they had trolleybuses for a few years, but they stopped with trolleybuses a few years ago, deleted the overhead line and the most buses are exported to Bulgaria for 2nd live. One trolleybus is exported to the city of Arnhem, The Netherlands and it’s in service as a museum bus.

Damn, been watching since 2013, and look how far simulators have come, amazing graphics, and a amazing youtuber making the experience amazing for us!

So I guess those Static Cows in the fields may be related to those in Milton Keynes. I loved you interacting with the passengers as well. ✅👏

Astrid square in Antwerp is actually very well done.

Soon to have my category D drivers licens it is fun to see the bus simulator. As of now i am learning in a Volvo 8700 and an Iveco

Same with me. We're driving an Volvo 8700 too and an Mercedes-Benz Travego. I'm taking the additional DE license too.

I live in Antwerp, couple of things: 1) It mostly looks nothing like the real city. I didn't recognize it at all until you arrived on Astridplein (your arrival). It's a very picturesque city, I promise you! 2) Those lion statues you saw are actually the entrance the city's Chinatown district. (Which is more like a single street) 3) That big building you saw at your arrival is the Antwerp Central Station, regarded as one of the, if not the most beautiful railway station in the world. It looks absolutely disgusting the game though, lmao.

So happy the uploads are back again :)

Most of our motorways in Flanders have three lanes. Especially this one from Ghent to Antwerp.

I think you went the from way into the parking bay for the bus. That is why the customers expected you to open the luggage bay on the right side, not the left side.

Been playing this for quite some time and I think on average 22C for the aircon is the sweet spot for passengers

The lion statues are Chinese lion statues in real, it marks the beginning of a "Chinatown" street with lots of Asian and Chinese shops. The major office you're reffering to is in fact the central train station of Antwerp.

Loved your interaction with those germans :)

I watch these videos to get sleepy

The Lion statues are at the entrance of China town in real life. They somewhat tried to make it represent a small piece of Antwerp. It's a much nicer city in reality though :)

Nice! I love these simulator games because I'm 15 and even though I can't work, I can simulate myself working these jobs. (Even though I don't want to be a trucker because it's a stressful and dangerous job with virtually no money) Its kind of fun to see how it looks for truckers since my dad is a trucker.

All pizza is good pizza. If someone doesn't like it, it's more for me!

Re: AI Traffic. Yeah. It's an incredibly difficult problem to solve. In order for you to do it well, you'd have to spend MUCH larger amounts of processing on each individual AI vehicle than, frankly, you spend on the rest of these simulator games.

Hopefully someone can help me! Where is the kitchen clearance button on this bus?!

One of the passengers had a ticket for Magdeburg Busbahnhof lol I was in Brussels once and did not like it much, I liked eg. Brugge much more. "Winkel" means "shop" in Nederlands / flemish I believe

Glad your back but..... What's with all the adds?. I remember you saying once that you only put them at the end of your videos so it doesn't interrupt us watching?Has that changed now then?.

I just purchased Bus Sim 18 (was on special) 2 days ago. The AI traffic in that game is actually very good. I would say 99% of AI traffic gives way to your bus when pulling out from a bus stop, when turning and etc. There is just that 1% or so of cars that you learn won't give way to you. Yeah, gotta agree about that brightness in this sim, way too bright overall and certainly in some areas more than others.

Fernbus has mods in steam workshop, websties.

Beautiful city of Antwerp. You should visit in real life

Maybe it's just an American thing, but people where I live don't move over when you signal to get onto the freeway. People are also extremely aggressive drivers. That AI doesn't seem all unrealistic in some aspects.

See issues with ETS2 and promods to when it comes to speed, going up the east coast of Sweden the speed changes randomly to 70 when there has been no signs lowering it from 80.

You only really get the 1 litre beers in Bavaria in the south of Germany, and that’s mainly for the tourists. Most other places a “large” beer would be 500ml. Germans generally favour quality over quantity when it comes to their beer

TML really sucks at recreating trainstations. amsterdam centraal and rotterdam centraal doesnt look like the real deal at all. i cant wait to go to antwerp next year :D

in our country.. some company using this type bus for long haul journey

When can we expect MegaBus Sim?

Holy shit I am happy your back to making driving videos again! Although a vlog channel would be nice

On the topic of pizza I recommend to go with thin crust also fun fact pineapple pizza did not come from Hawaii It was invented by the Canadians I think we can Canadian like taking a lot of credit

Is it me or the scale of things in this game is way off? The camera from a first person perspective seems unrealistically tall and large, while buses seem smaller then they should be?

25:37 They must have washed it with Daz :)

If you took pineapple pizza away from us Canadians, there would be ... substantial loss of politeness.

The road is E17. It's supposed to have 3 lanes...

I really wish someone could come up with a bus/coach sim that had sounds that sounded realistic, as well as having physics that made the vehicle feel like it was actually on the ground and not floating above it. Like OMSI2 but up to date, this might look fairly pretty but looks very poor as a simulator. Not for me. Nice relaxing video though, thanks Squiggle, sorry, Squirrel!

He is speeding at 3:59

"But Squirrel, what about pineapple on pizza?" "Pft, its amazing......how people get so wound up over pineapple on pizza."

Hi Squirrel! Fun fact for you. I live in California, and I've seen some Flixbuses here.

That big building at the end is the train station Antwerpen-Centraal en the square is very accurate compared to real life

lol.. BIO winkel = BIO store.. nothing to fancy there.. just a veggy place and about the 70 km/h speed limit to antwerpen... dispite the satnav telling you you can go 100 km/h.. if the roadsigns say its 70.. stick to 70.. thats how it works IRL.. as i drive there daily with a truck... 70 and 50 km/h is usually during rush hours or when there is a collision.. witch happens a lot there around antwerpen...

the game is great but in ghent, antwerp belgium there are trams and they have forgotten that

It says ets2 in the description

20:40 i wonder when this will happen

Maybe dlc secretly stands for downloadable coach

there are no pedestrians crossing a street, No children passengers

Thin crust all the way. I feel that there's too much dough in deep pan, makes me feel a bit queasy by the end of it. Thin crust doesn't. I know you can put stuff in thicker crusts, but I don't care. If I want, I can roll a thin one up.

Seriously wth is wrong with the LOD transitions in this game? The buildings and other objects completely disappear as it switches to the hi-poly version. Quite distracting...

One minute late and no points! :(
