Fernbus Simulator: MAN Lion's Intercity

The MAN Lion's Intercity DLC for Fernbus Simulator was developed and published by TML-Studios, with its release on October 1, 2019. This expansion introduced the MAN Lion's Intercity, a versatile intercity bus, into the game. The DLC featured three variants of the bus: R60, R61, and R62, each catering to different passenger capacities and operational needs. Designed for short regional trips, these buses were ideal for routes like those in the Usedom, Ruhr, and Rhine/Main areas, where cities are in close proximity.

Promotion for the DLC was carried out through TML-Studios' official channels, including their website and social media platforms. The marketing emphasized the addition of the new MAN Lion's Intercity models and their suitability for regional travel, aiming to attract players interested in enhancing their simulation experience with a new vehicle type. The DLC was positioned as a valuable addition for players seeking to diversify their fleet and explore new routes within the game.

Reception of the MAN Lion's Intercity DLC was generally positive among players. Many appreciated the detailed modeling of the buses and the interactive cockpit features, which added depth to the driving experience. The inclusion of a 4-gear automatic transmission with a torque converter and reactive dashboard displays was well-received, offering a more realistic and engaging simulation. However, some players noted that the DLC was limited to a single vehicle type and did not introduce new gameplay mechanics, which may not appeal to those seeking more substantial content additions.

Overall, the MAN Lion's Intercity DLC was considered a worthwhile expansion for Fernbus Simulator. While it focused on adding a new vehicle type rather than introducing new gameplay features, it enhanced the game's realism and variety by incorporating a high-quality, licensed intercity bus. Players interested in regional travel and those looking to diversify their fleet found the DLC to be a valuable addition to their simulation experience.
