OMSI 2 Add-on Berlin X10 DLC

This is an excellent add-on for OMSI2. We get X10 express line which goes from Berlin ZOO (pretty much center of the city) to a suburban town of Teltow. This is alone pretty long route aound 40 minutes but it doesn't stop on all stops. If you like do drive like me - learn the route and drive with no helpers you might be confused where should you stop - but they added a custom IBIS which actually announces all the stops. Pretty neat. This route is straight forward with limited number of turns But that's not all. They also modelled some parts of Berlin (mostly around ZOO) which gives us several nice normal lines with sharp turns and narrow streets. They also modelled a lot of the Teltow town itself which again gives us several lines around it, with narrow streets in the old town or the suburbs. There are also some lines included which start at Teltow going to Potsdam - obviously we can drive only around 1/3 of such a route but still it's a nice addition. We also have some night lines. Generally speaking there is a lot of content - really a rich add-on for it's price. We get a double decker MAN included which is nicely modelled. This bus is suitible for X10 line but if you wish to drive other lines realistically I believe you should also buy something like MAN CItibus add-on which gives a lot of nice busses to drive and it works perfectly with this route. I don't really see any bad sides of the add-on. It's very varied, very long and modelled in details (as long as OMSI 2 can be modelled in detail - remember it's an old game). They also include nice maps and schedules for all the lines as pdfs. Some of the routes are branching (depending on which time you start) and some other even require changing lines (for example you start as 625 on a shorter route and then you are required to drive to another terminus and change to 626). The only thing I dislike is that they messed something up with the IBIS setup. For example manual says to put 010 36 00 for X10 line but you have to put 510 0 0 to make it work (5 for X). It took me some time to figure this out so please be warned.

Berlin X10 is for sure the best OMSI payware addon so far. Amazing bus (MAN DD - much better than freeware version) and beautiful map - you can see that this city lives. Many routes to drive with various variants, a lot of AI lines, road traffic, people in the streets - isn't so empty like Chicago DLC. The map is large, even bigger than most of the community maps. There's no comparison... Definitely "must have" for OMSI fans.

Without a shadow of doubt, currently the best addon map available for OMSI2. Very high quality throughout and with fantastic attention to detail. I've yet to find any bugs. This map is far superior to Gladbeck, despite being almost half the price, so don't be put off by that. The X10 route itself is a fantastic long run down to Teltow, but there are also options for nice short local routes in Teltow itself, as well as the mighty M29, and the very enjoyable 115. Highly recommended 10/10

Well where shall I start? The Map: I play on this map more than I do with any other maps for omsi to be honest, and I always manage to see something new everytime I play. The map has some amazing detail to it that just makes me want to come back. The Route: The main route as the name points out: X10 is the longest route in the game. The route itself starts out in Zoologischer Garten bus station, and goes through residential areas before terminating at Teltow, a surburb of Berlin. Personally I haven't seen an express route in OMSI as of yet, so to have an express route in the game is pretty nice. I do try to mix up the busses so i'll perhaps be using a bendy bus in the rush hour or just a single one when it's relatively quiet. The Bus: Well not much can be said about the bus really, it is functionally identical to the stock MAN busses we get with the game except the ticket machine is essentially an IBIS machine too. I did have a slight problem with the driver position and that you were simply feeling like a midget behind the wheel so I had to adjust it. Overall: I like this dlc, I think it's one of the more better one's we've gotten for OMSI. Not to forget that if you're tired of just making up your own stuff, you can just find one of the many missions that have been included(one that does indeed also have you run a Rail Replacement Service!) Is this value for money? would be better if you'd pick this up somewhere cheap or wait until omsi stuff is discounted. TL;DR: The DLC is good, you'll find many hours of fun with this. Trust me.

At first I was unsure if I should spend £18.99 on a simulator add-on. After a long think I decided that it was worth the money. This is probally one of the best add-ons OMSI 2 has seen. I do recomend this as add-on. It is more than just an add-on it is a whole new modern Berlin. Unlike other maps for OMSI you are not restricted to what routes you can drive (18 on this map) Do buy this add-on, you wont regret it. Worth every penny of £18.99.

Was a great game - truly was the best DLC for OMSI 2. Recently, however, the game no longer works. The developers decided to update the DLC, which sounds great, but they did a terrible job of it! Firstly, the update changed all the IBUS codes for the routes, whereby it took me ages to find them on the developers website, which is only in German and demands you register with them before you can get the new manuel - they haven't updated the manuel on Steam. Secondly, the new 'bus computer' thing is all in German, which isn't a problem as I understand the authenticity, however the new manuel has only little and vague instruction on how to use it. Although if you set the year to before 2014, you get the old 'bus computer', this still uses the new IBIS codes which leads to the following issue. Thirdly, I've noticed a lot of times now when using the pre-2014 'bus computer', at the last stop the bus computer freezes which is very frustrating! No buttons work on the ticket printer and and Q button does nothing, neither does turning the electronics on and off nor requesting maintenance. The only way to get around it is to either manually set the destination (but then the automatic announcements do not work) or delete that bus and insert a new one. The former option only works 50% of the time, often placing the new bus far away from where it should be and at the very edge of the map. Finally, since this update, the collision mesh keeps on not loading and causing the map to not load. I don't know what to do anymore and have given up on this DLC, it's very frustrating! When there is a problem with the collision mesh not loading, I get loads of error messages, all in German!!! In summary, thanks to the developers for releasing this update prematurely and ruining the game, I'll be wary of purchasing any DLC off them again!

Very nice addon, the buses are very easy and nice to use, easy and fun to drive. Although the back swings out alot in corners, so be careful and check both sides of your bus before making a tight turn. The map is a standalone map, NOT an expansion to the original Spandau map as mentioned earlier by Steam user Drunk & Disorderly. It is huge and takes you right to the centre of Berlin with it's shopping streets, busy roads and pedestrians and cars parked all over the streets. Literally. This addon is great and you have to buy it.

Where shall I start? This map is very detailed and one of the most realistic maps even considering the base map included with OMSI 2. The number of AI lines, simulated suburban trains and vast amount of sights to see makes driving on this one a pure joy. The main line you can operate your bus on is X10 but there are several other (somewhat shorter) lines which are partially modeled and simulated and they are equally fun to drive on. The MAN Lion's City DD is a really nice bus to operate, the sounds are realistic and the bus being a double decker adds up to the experience greatly. Pros: + Really large map with large number of AI lines and realistic schedules + Construction zones, cars parked in the bus lanes and the sides of narrow streets make the driving experience more realistic + A whole bunch of modern AI cars (including a Scania truck with a semi-trailer) + The bus included with the addon is really nice + Seasonal lines: train replacement bus (SEV) included + 2 bus depots in two different settings + Detailed user manual (in English and German) is included as well as real timetables and cheatsheet for IBIS codes Cons: + While the map is very well optimized you might experience lag spikes near the city center + Due to the performance limitations of OMSI 2 the number of AI cars is quite low compared to the real thing + The map failes to load properly at some places but this can be fixed by reloading the game I would love to see the lines only partially modelled in this one completed once. Especially the line 285 and X1 would sound interesting. I strongly recommend this DLC, it's one of the bests available for OMSI 2.

Nice map when it works. most of the time doesnt even load and when It does it only loads about 100m then the whole map just glitches out and you end up on grass and driving through buildings.

Really good add-on, although £18.99 is rather expensive. I mistakenly assumed that this add-on would be an addition to the original Berlin.hof map/depot file - it isn't for anyone else making that assumption. Regardless, the map is still great and you could argue that having its own map is an advantage, considering its large variety of scenery objects, locations, timetables & routes to enjoy. Personally I've only played the map twice now, its colossal compared to the other maps, even some of the mod maps aren't this big! Considering its in Berlin, I'm yet to find the same places such as Rathaus Spandau from the original file set in the 80's/90's, but as I say, I've not played the map much yet.
