Update Speculation thread

It is a bus.
1) City buses have large wheel arches right behind the door to fit the extremely large semi wheels. Trolleys and trams don't have large wheels, and normally they are under the vehicle's floor, so no wheel arches.

2) The area the picture was taken shows the vehicle parked next to a curb, and shows the area right outside Chinatown, which I do not recall it having rails that close to the road.

3) The structure is a bus stop. There is a dedicated bus lane (painted red) somewhere in the middle of downtown, which has the same stop pasted on the side of the road, leading me to believe that the lane is so buses can load and unload passengers at this location.

EDIT: Nevermind, its totally a rocket

 

Well guys, it's confirmed! We're getting a bus! Probably gonna have to wait a bit on it though. It looks very good so far, even though we haven't seen it. What are your predictions on what era it's from? I'd say 90s-2000s.

 

No, obviously it's a rocket. Look at the filename.

 

This is the location:


Probably a bus, next to tracks. They do love to tease

 

I wish is more to 2000s - 2010s because the game is lacking of vehicles of this era.

 

I agree. There are only a few cars from 2005 - present.

Interesting. It indeed looks like a bus parking spot.

 

It looks late 80's-90's to me but im no expert

 

not next update maybe 0.13

 

I got early access...

 

let me guess.... omsi ?

 

MAZ-203 from russians, I believe it is being reworked here though. I thought I try if I can match developer screenshot and you can clearly see how close bus is to bus, this just is not ultra wide screen:

 

I absolutely hope not. I've been waiting for a new vehicle for months, so I'm going to be expecting it in the next update. It may not be the Bluebuck, but I'll take it.

Besides, we haven't seen the whole vehicle yet, so it's impossible to judge how completed it is.

 

i accept everything excepted soliad

 

Layout of the seats is more cable car than bus if you ask me...

 

I'm not too surprised but now I'm wondering is it a H-series a T-series or its own vehicle?

Its not a cable car. Its too far away at that stop from the rails.

 

All of the city busses I have been on have had that layout where the seats face inwards except for one or two times.

 

Indeed. But the layout of the seats is puzzling.

What if it's the bulldozer...?

Dunno, most city busses that I know of have a seat layout similar to this:



Might be different in the US though...

 

Updated

Most city buses in the US work to serve handicapped people. That's why the seats that are backed up to the wall in the dev post as well as the picture below.
This is from Muni bus service in San Francisco.

 

Makes sense.

Wasting space as usual in the US...
