No, SCS never does "demos" for DLC's, but you could buy the DLC, test it in less than 2 hours and request a Steam Refund if you don't like it.

Hi ppl know I'm coming into this a bit late any ideas if there is going to be a demo version like they did with ETS2 ?

As per JoeAlex, it's not a new game, so it won't have a playable demo. There should be some more streams with devs playing and once it's released you can watch other people's video's to get a sense of whether you want to buy it or not.

I noticed a floating-point circle at the bottom of the screen. As far as I understand, is that a gameplay indicator showing the passengers’ weight distribution, or something like that, for controlling the bus?

Looks to me like it's a g-force meter, similar (but obviously extended in 2 axis) to the one you got in old Bus Driver. Too hard braking and it goes in the red, same for sharp turns and (very unlikely because good luck with that in a heavy vehicle) acceleration. And satisfaction goes down.

[Seerman]

In any case, most people will probably just turn it off (hopefully that will be an option) so it doesn’t interfere with immersion.

[JoeAlex23]

Just watch the driving part of the video posted on the previous page and you will see exactly what it does.

Yes it’s a G meter, it was demonstrated in one of the third-party hands-on videos from gamescom.

thanks everyone for your replies didn't twig it about the DLC part sorry once again the senior moment strikes again going back in my corner with crayons

I hope it will be possible to enable g-force indicator in Car mode in ATS. I'd love driving around the various racing tracks of ATS with this indicator.

[Bandit & The Snowman]

Given the limited physics that'll be only half satisfying, but I agree I'd like it too. Have to remember which racing games have it...
