As an ex-bus driver, I can tell you that running late is never going to land you in any trouble, providing it’s obviously not deliberate. Running early however is a massive problem. You are potentially leaving passengers behind that hadn’t got to the bus stop at the time you left early.
My old man is a bus driver here in Australia for two and a half years now, been his dream job for decades! seeing you do this is pretty much identical to what he does and I have forward him your channel so he can check out your bus sim vids. He's very impressed with your knowledge! He specially loves the way you continuously check their tickets for fare invaders, fare invaders is the number one annoying thing that gets on his nerves as a driver. He once caught 30 people (mostly teenagers) in one day fare evading and of course they're not happy about that and ends with an assault.
Hello Jeff Being an ex bus driver for many years the saying was " you get paid for being late but sacked for being early " If your due to leave a stop at say 10.00am but leave early passengers could miss the bus. Anyways keep up the great content fella n tc
Great video Jeff! Definitely more of this map if you like it. I also want to say I really enjoy the added bus driver commentary, LOL. I really laughed at your comments about the passengers and things going on around you. It's those little things that really add to your videos!
Got some tips for you Jeff since I've also play BS18 for a while now. First of all: disable the "Too early event" when you start a route, it is just so stupid and with it disabled it just gives you a timer of the time left to the scheduled arrival time. Second: Set the value of breaks strength higher since they are way too bad in my opinion. Pretty sure this can be done in the game settings.
So here's the thing. You're going to run late sometimes and there's not much you can do about it usually and it's understandable. Often times there's a time cushion at the start/end of parts of your route and you can use that to catch up on time. You cannot, however, be early .That is called running hot and it's very, very bad. Imagine you look at the bus schedule and it says that the bus will be at the airport at 2:20pm but Jeff was in a hurry to be early and blew through there 5 minutes earlier. Someone comes outside and their bus seemingly never comes. What would even be the point of having a schedule at all in that case, right? (source: I drive buses)
And this happened to me. I left home at 5.20 in the morning and bus arrives at a station at 5.25 so plenty of time right? No because bus arrived 4 minutes early and i missed it. I spoke to a friend who was on it and he told me the bus passed 3 stops before mine and that is why it was early.
So Jeff. I'm a bus driver, the reason you can't leave a stop early is due to the reason that you need to stick to the route timetable so that people don't miss a bus even if they reach the stop at the time stated on the board.
An oldie but great game. Hopefully we will get a USA DLC with such buses as the New Flyer XDE40 "Excelsior" series. And several American cities such as Chicago, New York or Philadelphia. Might pick this up in the Steam Summer Sale.
Played the game a bunch last night and got the hang of it. Haven't tried hard mode yet. But anyway I enjoyed it, it was therapeutic, and will probably do some broadcasting myself.
I like how, if you want to be spontaneous you can exit the bus and run down the street. You can also choose the weather. I'm glad I got this instead of train sim 2.
I'm probably not the first to say this as I've not reviewed all the comments. What you experienced, where you had to tap the accelerator and them put your foot on it a second time, isn't a problem. It actually happens on real vehicles and it is called a "Halt Brake". It is an electronically controlled brake that does the same job as the hand brake, but I personally wouldn't rely on it while stopped and allowing passengers to alight and disembark. Some vehicles apply the Halt brake automatically or there is a switch on the dash to switch it on. It seems from observing the dash board while watching you play, you have two icons on the instrument cluster, which are illuminated while you're stopped. You have the Red Circle with "P" and then to the very left of that, you have the red circle with "H". The "P" comes on and off with use of your Park Brake and the "H" illuminates when you open the doors and then is extinguished when you pull away after releasing your Park Brake. :-P
Oh btw I usually am able to open the ramp with doors open (unless there is an option that prevents you from doing so that I am missing) and leaving too early is a thing you can set up just before you start the route in the options list that gets displayed.
As a challenge you should make a route that connects all the stops (the double stops like Cathedral in the old town should all be connected (so say 2 Cathedral stops, etc, a.k.a. all the dots indicating stops connected)) ride the route in round trip mode (not loop/circle mode) and start and end the route in the garage :P
Gonna have to get this a try. Liking the new map expansion. When you first got there was it just me or did it look a lot like the town on fern bus simulator?
Officer Juicy this game is going to be released on PlayStation in 2 weeks however idk about Xbox however flight simulator will be released on Xbox only next year
Revenue Agency would be like the IRS (Internal Revenue Service), CRA (Canada Revenue Agency), or HMRC (Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs) depending on where you live. IE, a tax office.
Thanks Jeff, I had to reinstall my steam account. When I got the update on Windows it changed everything on my steam account. For bus simulator and ats...Please keep making videos, I'm one of your biggest fans...
The color of most EU road signs has practically nothing to do with what their function is, a yield sign is a yield sign no matter what Also, you only have to stop at a yield sign if theres other people with right of way, because otherwise it would just be a stop sign
The reason for the before time aspect, is because every stop in most of Europe have a designated time for each bus to be at the stops. So when a Bus leave to early, the chances are you wont get the Passengers that ment to go with that particular bus route, and that itself is just as bad for the Bus driver as if they are late. I have alot of Bus drivers in my family, and being on time seems to be the nr 1 thing to do in that business. So in short, to early the people that ment to Drive with your route will be late. :)
He is probably using something called a track IR. Track IR is where you but a sensor on top on you monitor and some reflectors on your head. Then if he turns his head a bit in real life his head in the game will turn.
Hey Jeff I am so glad that you're back to playing the bus simulator 18 games and I cannot believe that big truck was an ass hole but that was amazing game
So I am a bus operator in my state all times are set to when you are supposed to leave the bus stop which you probably can understand that leaving too soon you might miss a customer. Now the too late thing not sure why that is a thing in my company as long as it isn't my error why I am late I won't get in any trouble they should remove that
Jeff, I stopped this game because of the bugs it contains. Thanks to this video I now know that it is still a disaster and I will not re-install it. The only advantage the updates have brought you is that after level 8 you can throw everything open and finally get rid of that worthless challenge option. Tnx man.

I don't like these kinds of simulators but you killed it on this one keep it up my good sir you're awesome!?
Why
I like it tbh

I just got this game this morning. Haven't played it yet. Looks even better than I thought, watching you play! Can't wait to get into it...

Keep it up jeff! Loving the steering wheel cam🤩
Yay, bus Sims back, always up for watching u play this one Jeff...
Good to see this series back, I've missed it.
Next Time you cross Railroad Tracks, you should do the Safety Requirement and Stop to check for trains.
😂 1. The lady who didn’t pay and was blocking the door lol 2. The cat 😂
Nobody:
Jeff: They’re not going so I will.
Mr. Mayonnaise Man Yes that’s how driving works...
IN HELL THEY HAVE A HELLA LOT AF CHALA BREAD
Yay! More Bus Sim. Can’t wait until it is fully released to console. Hope all is good for you and others! :)
Cool Gaming setup makes these games more realistic
Dude keep looking at the house like he never seen it before lol 38:48
2:09 Lol walk on the bus without a ticket good luck to that person I wonder is there going to be 2019 version of this game.
991K! It's all due to your great content! Keep up the great work! Been here since 2012 and I look forward to many more years!
OMG JEFF ur almost to 1 millions SUBS!!!
Too early means you are leaving the bus stop before the scheduled departure time
I've been waiting a long time for another Bus Sim vid
They should've added double decker buses too. Might've add some interesting elements to the game.
Oh btw I usually am able to open the ramp with doors open (unless there is an option that prevents you from doing so that I am missing) and leaving too early is a thing you can set up just before you start the route in the options list that gets displayed.
So excited for more videos on bus simulator
Definitely more of this
I like TTC busses and YRT busses in Canada cause they have a bike rack on them.
Love the scenery! Great video Jeff!
As a challenge you should make a route that connects all the stops (the double stops like Cathedral in the old town should all be connected (so say 2 Cathedral stops, etc, a.k.a. all the dots indicating stops connected)) ride the route in round trip mode (not loop/circle mode) and start and end the route in the garage :P
Use blinker when you want to exit from roundabout
Alex Alex he’s American, they don’t know how to use .. I know I live in America, they struggle with roundabouts
Great video Relaxing to watch in the background, I love these new bus simulators
Gonna have to get this a try. Liking the new map expansion. When you first got there was it just me or did it look a lot like the town on fern bus simulator?
That's a yield sign, if no traffic you don't have to stop
This game has good sound effects on it. Better than American and Euro 2 truck simulator. When you splash in a puddle or something, it makes noise.
Jeff I just love your videos keep on doing it how you do it you’re the best!
Honestly i would love a bus driving game on xbox but it would be awesome to have all of that stuff. I love roleplaying games like this
Maybe soon, more and more simulation games have been making there way to consoles.
Officer Juicy this game is going to be released on PlayStation in 2 weeks however idk about Xbox however flight simulator will be released on Xbox only next year
Adam Elcheikh it’s coming to Xbox too
@14:07 am I the only one that saw this?
You're not the only one saw that
New flashing lights update is out
I love this game I was just binge watching all of the bus simulator vids wish it could be on console. And loving the wheel cam😀❤️
Definitely want to see more of this game. I hoping it will be on console at some point if it not already.
I'm Happy with my G27, However if I ever need a new wheel it will be a thrustmaster. :)
Their customer service and warranty are garbage.
Awesome Jeff busted the lady in the door and no ticket nice
I love bus
2:33
"I don't wanna see Purrly, I don't wanna see it."
What kind of a cat does they own if Jeff so refuses to look at a picture of it...
Revenue Agency would be like the IRS (Internal Revenue Service), CRA (Canada Revenue Agency), or HMRC (Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs) depending on where you live. IE, a tax office.
It is about time... I been awaiting this game. Mostly because I am hoping to get it on PS4.
Thanks Jeff, I had to reinstall my steam account. When I got the update on Windows it changed everything on my steam account. For bus simulator and ats...Please keep making videos, I'm one of your biggest fans...
ahh Jeff and his dad jokes 😂 keep it up man.
The color of most EU road signs has practically nothing to do with what their function is, a yield sign is a yield sign no matter what
Also, you only have to stop at a yield sign if theres other people with right of way, because otherwise it would just be a stop sign
so yellow and red yield sign same thing, got it
@@jfavignano no, the red upside down triangle is a give way sign, the yellow turned square gives you the right of way. You were right in the video.
We're rooting for 1M subs 🙌🏾 BTW love this game 👌🏾🤗😍

The too early message came up because in the trip settings, you enabled 'too early mode' or something like that at the bottom of the settings
I like these episode keep doing more jeff love them
PLAY MORE OF THIS GAME IS SO AMAZING I MISSED IT!!!!!!!! :D
Blinker should be used when leaving the roundabout.
Amazing video keep up the awesome work
Jeff, there is also a new DLC in Ferhnbus. A new bus. Maybe look at that?
Breaking the 4th wall xD
I'M SO HYPEWD FOR THISa
Great vid jeff
LOVE THE WHEEL CAM
Well done Baku
Can't wait till bus Sim 18 release on PS4
It will be called Bus Simulator on the Consoles
@@joshuaratcliffe8431 thanks for that info I thought it's just a fake news
@@briceallen9578 ir is fake news
Nice one jeff🖒🖒🖒
14:08 the truck and the car
RIP
*OH MY SHINDIRU NANI*
CNG buses are really sluggish up hills thats a real life thing haha. Mostly due to tune.
Gonna take some practice but like it better than the controller.Watching you actually got me to try my wheel again.Thanks.
Awesome video can't wait for the next one
Hey Jeff out of curiosity, What kind of keyboard do you use?
some buses in Australia when the door is open it locks the pedals, wont work till the door/s are fully closed - Is that what you mean ?
Wat up Jeff good stuff bro only you can make this shit entertaining
Do you use a vr, or how do you get the camera to turn as you don’t move your hands
He is probably using something called a track IR. Track IR is where you but a sensor on top on you monitor and some reflectors on your head. Then if he turns his head a bit in real life his head in the game will turn.
I've been looking at getting this, might have to pick it up once I decide whether to get a TrackIR or a Tobii !
Hey Jeff I am so glad that you're back to playing the bus simulator 18 games and I cannot believe that big truck was an ass hole but that was amazing game
Do more multiplayer please.
14:06 imho the doors have to be closed.
So I am a bus operator in my state all times are set to when you are supposed to leave the bus stop which you probably can understand that leaving too soon you might miss a customer. Now the too late thing not sure why that is a thing in my company as long as it isn't my error why I am late I won't get in any trouble they should remove that
Ministry of Science is supposed to mimic the Church of Scientology. Food for thought
Jeff doesn’t use his indicators leaving bus stops which adds time
It was good to watch
they should just update the npc's dialog smh lol!
You should play TSW: CSX Heavy Haul again.
Funny how you fail to indicate twice at the roundabout yet indicated to change lanes which doesn't even count towards score. 🤔
Jeff, I stopped this game because of the bugs it contains.
Thanks to this video I now know that it is still a disaster and I will not re-install it.
The only advantage the updates have brought you is that after level 8 you can throw everything open and finally get rid of that worthless challenge option.
Tnx man.
finally!
Awesome vid
Is this any way like driving a car ? Pedal wise and steering?
It’s a long car that steers like a boat
I like your videos
I want more of this PLSSSSS DO IT AGAIN
this video was made almost 2 years ago now so I highly doubt it.
@@thatrandomguy7892 this comment was made almost 2 months ago so I highly doubt it
Great video👍👌
Is the map big and is it worth buying please?
I would say yes if you ask me
the map extension is so good
Hi Jeff keep up the good work. Hope you are doing well.
Awsome video
