Euro Bus Simulator DLC when?

[mackintosh]

As I understood it from several interviews with Pavel, the Coach Simulator was their backup project in the event ATS flopped. As it did not, the proposed bus sim went on a backburner. I'm sure they're still working on it, especially since there obviously is a demand for it, but it'll probably take a while before they have the manpower available to devote to it full time. Then again, who knows, it could be in full swing development as I type this.

Is this a thread focused on a new game from scs or about a new thing that is known to come to ETS2? because I don't understand what is Euro Bus Simulator and what is Euro Coach Simulator, could you explain to me what is the difference between the two?

It's the same thing. Basically there is no official name for now, so SCS calls it Euro Coach Simulator, but it’s just a code name for the project and possibly will not be the final name.
About how it came about. Basically on March 20, 2013, SCS announced in this blog post that they were working on a side project that would involve buses and that it would be a new game, but using the Euro Truck Simulator 2 base. Some years have passed, and it is May 7, 2015, they spoke again about the Euro Coach Simulator, in this World of Trucks newsletter, that they were still working on the Euro Coach, but it would no longer be a new game but a DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2. From that time until today, based on statements by Pavel over the years, that the project is still being worked on, but with a small team.

@Marcello Julio so will it be a new DLC to ETS2 that will add buses to the game?

[Marcello Julio]

@Ceco Yes, basically this. It will be a DLC. But certainly separated from the truck game mode. I believe it will be possible to access via the Launchpad when you open the game and choose what you want to play.

I already understand, thanks @Marcello Julio

I'm and my partner are ready to help the SCS team in this direction. To speed up the process. We love use buses in game.

If coaches come would we use the current garages or would it be that there would be a new type of garage for us in order to buy coaches and to store them

Hopefully during this year we have some news about this project..

If it comes, would be nice to have our own route and timetable editor, rather than just making random (radiant) runs between different locations. Not sure how easy that would be in the current game.
