as a girly with autism who loves driving simulators this is the perfect simulation game. i’ve had this game since release on xbox then decided to get it on my PC and a lot has come into to it since the start. the realism in this game is really good and i can play hours! Only dislike and bad side is the NPCS walking in the road at random moments )): it can be quite annoying. Also for your employees it can sometimes interfere with your money making depending on the cons of the driver and i’ve had a few times where the graphics on the wind mirror and mirror glitch out which could be fixed but rather than that no issues from me! . Game has good potential, hoping for more updates and features added :))

Hello players & developers. If you're looking to purchase this game beware there is a few bugs, they're not major bugs however it can effect the game slightly. I would recommend this to people who have tolerance for small issues since I have had a great time on this game and I have been really enjoying it. For the developers and people who are interested, here is a few issues and recommendations. 1. Pedestrians are reckless and cross the road without any sense which can lead to you losing your job which can be frustrating. 2. On the Logitech G29, I am not sure if it is with all other wheels, when you first load up the game, it takes a minute or two to register the wheel is plugged in, sometimes not at all so I have to re-calibrate it. 3. I feel like when you go over the speed limit there should be a little beeping sound as a safety measure, like in a lot of modern vehicles. 4. You should add walking like in The Bus, Tourist bus sim & Bus Sim 21 to give a more realistic feel to the game. That's that. I hope you found this review helpful!

I was worried about buying this game at first due to all the negative reviews. I have noticed the common theme though was bad AI and a lack of an ability to reset the traffic in the event of a major jam. I decided to buy this game while it was on sale to see if this has been fixed like the developers have stated. I can gladly say that I have had no issues with the AI, both pedestrian and traffic. After looking through the menu, I have also noticed that they added a feature to call the police, the description of this action is to clear any major jams, though I have not had a need of this feature yet. I hope that the developers continue to develop the game, I would love to see more vehicles added to the game along with more customization though, I am a believer in quality of quantity. This game does well with the quality of the vehicles. I would also love to see other passenger events added. For example, the ability to handle passengers with disabilities. One issue I have with the game is that it feels poorly optimized. I am currently having to play on medium to low graphics in order to have a smooth experience, though there is no spike lag. The specs of my machine are as follows: CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-13400F 2.50 GHz RAM: 32GB DDR4 3600 GPU: GTX 3070 Ti These specs are well within the recommended specs. Just keep this in mind when purchasing the game. Apologies for the long rant but overall I personally would rate this game a 7/10.

Initially this was really bad at launch , but now im finding myself really enjoying the game , this now has real potential to be one of the top city/realistic driving games available , keep up the great work developers , maybe add more cars to work towards and perhaps airport runs , food delivery ? , and more things to buy and own near solid 60 fps @ 4k high settings steering wheel needs a few updates to allow perfect settings but its getting there , Fanatec CSW 2.5 If mods are brought into this game it will be amazing keep it up this now has real potential

This game has a lot of potential. I personally found it relaxing when I want to take a break from high intensity racing sim. There are some suggestions that I have to make this game better. 1. I really hope to have dynamic weather introduced in the next update. It would be cool to have a weather forecast for example. Even better if you can introduce seasonal change. What's the point of having wiper and upgradable tire if you only drive in a sunny day only? It will make driving more challenging and fun. 2. The interaction with the passenger can get repetitive, so there should be more variations. It would be great to have audio interaction in Spanish or Catalan for better immersion because we're in Barcelona right. 3. After driving for almost 50 hours in this game, the map feels small as I've explores every corner of the city. So, please introduce further expansion for the entire city. 4. Improve the GPS system. There are many occasion where the GPS instruct me to go through a "forbidden" part of the city which is inaccessible. Please fix that. 5. I notice there's a throttle issue with the premium sedan car "Rhea" when driving in manual transmission. Even though I've pressed my throttle down to about 25% it doesn't register in game and then there's sudden throttle jump which accelerate car beyond the speed I intended. I gave up driving this car even though it's the most expensive car in the game I have the worst driving experience with it. 6. Make distinction between normal road and highway in the map, where to enter and exit it. Sometimes I want to test the car speed to the limit and what better way to do it in the highway. 7. Where are the bus, the motorbike, the cyclist? Please add more variation to the vehicles we encounter in the city to make it more realistic. I also notice that many stores and street shops are closed in the middle of the day, please make it more lively, add more people gathering, this will add more to the immersion experience. 8. Fix the behavior of the pedestrians. There are many times when I about to complete my trip with passenger and then they appear out of nowhere and I don't have enough time to react making me paying hefty fine and losing that customer. 9. Please make it possible to change the camera angle and set it as default. I have 21:9 ultra wide monitor and when inside the car I want to be able to see both left and right rear mirror. But as soon as I look up, or glance left or right, I'm back to the default settings. We can rotate the camera but it would be nice to have option to have a wider field of view, move camera horizontally, vertically, adjust angle etc. You can check how it's implemented in Asetto Corsa, BeamNG, etc. You know what I mean. Kudos to the developer, and I'm looking forward to the next update. Oh and please improve the stability of the game, I have the game crashing several times using intel core i7 13700-F, 64GB of RAM, and RTX 4070.
