Hey! Good morning, every month screenshot competitions... Nothing new and exciting for USA routes... Everything new comes from European routes... NO new routes in the USA... NO upgrades on existing USA routes... That's the reason I have uninstalled it and don't play it any longer...
On top of TSC mostly being a legacy game, US producers were targeting a rather critical fan base. It certainly didn't help. For newer customers there are tons of existing routes to pick from, veterans often have other sources, and in case you really run out of content, there are other games to visit as well. Existing content also means that newer offerings didn't see high sales volume, judging by reviews. A partial issue is that the US has very limited variety of rolling stock. While photographers and railfans (like myself) may enjoy the umpteenth livery out in the while, from a game perspective they are of limited value. Like the Amtrak 50th anniversary pack. Scenario packs can somewhat help it, but they are also cutting corners and hard to please and justify the value. Overall, though, I guess it's about the volume. ... and TSC being as bogus as it is, high volume means lots of complaints. So ironically it's most everyone's best interest to keep it low.
