Really quite good if you approach it expecting an 'arcade simulator' and not a 'simulator simulator' as oxymoronic as that sounds. I came into CTS26 expecting indepth route and fleet management though found out very quickly I wasn't going to get that, what I got instead was an incredibly fun casual transport sim I have enjoyed far more than if it was a 'real' simulator. All the vehicles are beautifully modelled inside and out with (almost) fully functioning cabins, fantastic physics, wonderful little details like drivers waving at you and a vibrant city to tie it all together. Great controller support too! It’s not all fantastic though. I don’t like the navigation, the blue arrows break immersion (if that’s your thing) and are only visible to the next stop, I have found myself at a bus stop on an intersection unsure of where I’m actually meant to be going next, you can turn these off but then you’re on your own (no GPS or alternative navigation system). While Tramau is definitely lovely, it doesn’t necessarily feel alive; there are no random events like road works, there are practically no pedestrians and no where near enough traffic for it to feel like a truly large city. I assume this is probably for performance as it’s optimised pretty poorly too, on my rig with everything almost maxed I can occasionally get 60fps.

This game is a massive step up from the previous iteration of CTS. The Good: 1. Love the buses in this game. The physics and the sounds really do add to the immersion of this game and make things a lot more realistic. 2. Love the friendly interactions that you have with your drivers whilst you are driving a bus route. It does really add realism to the game, as that is what drivers do in the real world. 3. The game also does look really good too. 4. Yesterday's update (at the time of posting this) is really good. Option to skip out stops and make more direct routes is a massive win in my book. It has allowed me to free up space at bus stops along my route, which can easily get overcrowded by other routes. However, I do have some problems with this game, The Bad: 1. My biggest gripe is the navigation system. Right now, there are arrows on the floor which help guide you to the next bus stop en route. However, I do not like the fact that when I change my destination display on my bus, that the navigation system doesn't update at all. This really does kill the immersion and weakens the realism a fair bit for me. That is really the only serious gripe I have with the game currently. Definitely would recommend and is one of the better bus sims out there right now in my opinion.

Hello everyone! I definitely recommend this game. It's very enjoyable and quite realistic. I wouldn't call it an absolute masterpiece, but it's definitely a strong contender. I've been playing it since release and I regularly make videos about it. Feel free to check out my playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7p6hS7jc5UQp3BnoPNpaF_ZD0xxGkNuR As for the downsides, I'd point out a couple of things. First, the optimization could be a bit better. The second thing I really miss is an automatic "look into the turn" feature. Right now, the driver always looks straight ahead unless you manually move the camera with the mouse. I'd love to see the driver's view automatically turn slightly in the direction you're steering, similar to how it works in ETS2. I don't use head tracking, so this would make it much easier to judge the size of the bus and see where I'm turning. Alternatively, it would be great to have keybinds for fixed camera angles, for example 65-80° to the left and right. That way, while making a turn, I could quickly glance left or right and then instantly switch back to looking straight ahead (using reset camera pos). I also want to suggest that the developers focus on adding as much transportation as possible to the game, such as small buses, double-decker buses, maybe even taxis, etc. Overall, I still highly recommend the game and I'm looking forward to seeing how it continues to improve!

It has it's flaws. Advancing in the game is sloth speed. You're gonna be constantly short of "points" which you use both for planning lines and for buying vehicles. On the contrary the vehicle number limit based on player's level wasn't a problem a single time. Even with this, it's one of the better public transport simulation games. Big plus for more announcement languages and the ability to change tram stops. It's so fun to come up with your own tram stop names. I can only recommend.

Has potential. Would not recommend it off-sale though, DLCs are crazy expensive
