Bus Company DLC

[707ROB]

Hello, bus drivers!

Can I use Bus Company DLC if I dont have OMSI 2 on my steam libery? I have it on my Windows installed.

Thanks

Hi, OMSI 2 only works with steam. So if you have OMSI 2 you can use the Bus Company Sim DLC :)

I'm fairly sure if you buy the CD version of Bus Company Simulator, it will work on a windows install of OMSI 2, but don't quote me on that. https://www.aerosoft.com/en/bustruck/bus-simulation/add-ons/2031/omsi-2-add-on-bus-company-simulator

"otes: We provide a serial number with the purchase of this download version. Afterwards, you need to download this add-on via STEAM and activate it. This requires a STEAM account. Further information can be found in the installation instruction."

I have OMSI 2 installed and purchased but I dont have it on my steam. I have it on my windows. So when I want to use Bus Company DLC I have to buy new OMSI 2 on steam?

Please can someone tell me can I use Bus DLC if I have OMSI 2 installed on my PC not steam

[707ROB]

Never mind :D Bought OMSI 2 steam version and its installing... Now im going to buy this Bus DLC too :D But yes thanks, (currently steam shows that 1,117 player is In-Game :O) Nice!

i hope you know the "multiplayer" is as fake as possible. You cant even see other players around you, only on the minimap. Reason i wont buy this DLC.

I dont know... So far I have enjoyed it :D This Bus Company DLC adds so much more to this game... But only thing I dont understand is that "Bus premission" thing.. If I have selected premissions for 3 busses then I cant remove them or something... but... everything so far so good

In the multiplayer depot (BCS) you are able to see all other multiplayer people which work for the same company if they're online and in the depot at the same time... of course.

You can do stupid things as well.
Go to the drinks machine , buy a tin and throw it upon an employee....
he/she will fall over and gets a black screen for a few seconds ... :P
Go as a group in the office and chat in bcs or with teamspeak... you always see the multiplayer characters, and how they move around in the BCS depot...

In OMSI you see all other folks who play the game on the mini map.

BCS-Multiplayer is just great ....with all it's tasks, claim, achievements, features, economy-system with depth and the global ranking system ....

It simply can't be better concerning overall features and possibilities.

just my opinion... >1.5k hours in OMSI XD .... before bcs release 150 h

there simply isn't a better bus sim out there and never will except (maybe) the "lotus project" in the future which by now has primary fokus on tramway ( I'd guess)

Ah right,..so if both you and I say were both online at the same time and both in the depot (BCS), you're saying we wouldn't see other if we both worked for different companies? Only if we're working for the same company can we see each other at the depot?

I suppose that makes sense really because otherwise, the depot would be overcrowded and cause issues like lag and freezes.

Absolutely, I agree with you there. I really do love playing Omsi despite all it's little quirks. It's the best amd most realistic Bus Simulator out there for the moment. Thank goodness for DLC and freeware maps/buses keeping this game alive.

will there be in future a way to see other player buses in the multiplayer ? rather than just seeing em thorough the map ? :)

No, I'm afraid that's never going to happen in Omsi. Omsi is no longer supported. Only third party DLC are still being made along with freeware maps and buses. This forum is now just a fan base forum giving help and advice to each other.

Omsi 3 coming ? xD or is that Lotus sim?

[Merlin]

Omsi 3 is pretty much Lotus Sim.
