Dovetail Games Announcing Train Sim World 6 And Dovetail Direct: Summer 2025

I doubt it because I signed nothing just a family member knows someone at DTG intimatly. Plus I have not said a thing they have told me on these forums and never would.

 

So just pillow talk eh?

I'm popping some corn just in case.

 

How does the saying go, “Know ye the terrible price of treason?”

 

Today was the DTG Event for youtuber and Streamer.
DTG post two Screenshots and a German Guy talked also about it, but he was not in England

 

German guys as a general rule are not in England yes, they typically tend to gather in Germany

 

In my subjective experience, as someone who has never been to Germany, I think about 90% of the German guys I have encountered have been in England XD

 

As far as I know, TrainSimPlay is in England for this event. I attended the first event in 2023.

 

Möchtest du eine kleine Nachtmusik?

 

idk German guys can be in England, Jurgen Klopp was in Liverpool for like 8 years

 

Hmm, dollars, you say? Sounds shifty.

 

Do you know how liscence agreements work?
Do you know the ins and outs of how to apply for a liscence.
Also some liscences have expiry dates to them. That means yes, when they expire that you won't be able to use the content in newer versions of the game as they no longer have the liscence to allow them to do this. When that happens it's annoying as hell. Negotiating liscences isnt like dusting crops to pun a phase. Its not something done over night either. It takes time to do and can't be done just by clicking yer fingers.

Bach ist mir lieber

 

A new Acela would be realy cool, actually the new airo would be nice as well

 

I am counting on passangers system overhaul.

 

I don't live in the USA, but what I know is that the new Acela train is just being tested, although I would like to see the Airo, it really catches my attention. Looks very interesting

 

The first five sets enter service in 12 days' time.

 

All well and good but what we really need is some Amtrak diesel electric trainsets, P32-8/P42DC/SC44, maybe as a scenario pack over several routes.

 

I Like GE P32-8BWH and GE P42DC I don't like the SC44 But if we can see a route with Amtrak diesel trains, I'm in. I would like to see an EMD F59PH. They already made the Metrolink F59PH. It would be fantastic to see that locomotive.

 

Maybe it's just me but anyone else find as the date approaches, far from anticipation actually experiencing a sense of foreboding? Maybe I’m burned out on TSW trying to finish the Monthly Mastery but I’m just getting the vibe that the core updates/changes and the new content might turn out to be underwhelming? I just think they are going to have to pull some real rabbits out of the hat to convince us TSW6 was actually necessary and the content pack will be a dull US commuter route, another 60km sea of DB Red and a mixed purpose modern UK electric route. (The latter built by Rivet).

I know last years leaks were wrong, but at least it kept the interest alive and produced some debate.

 

Same, no excitement whatsoever this year.

Last year was so disappointing. While WCML S is an ok route now, it still very buggy. I don't play Frankfurt Fulda much despite german routes being my favourite and I've uninstalled tbe US route it was so dull.

The hype got me last year and I regretted my purchase when it popped up on sale so quickly. Unless it contains one or more of : The Riviera Line, A Class 50, A Valenta HST or something in Berlin then I honestly think it'll just be the free version for me this time.

Still love the game overall and prepared to be surprised. But the whole of TSW5 has not been good for me with the exception of Just Trains releases.

 

Not that fussed what's coming. I haven't bought a full TSW since TSW 2.
I've tended to upgrade with either the free upgrade or for the likes of TSW 3 and 4, when they've been included with a single route.

Besides, TSW 6 will be released when my day job is very busy. Gaming takes a back seat mostly until a brief holiday over Christmas and New Year. Unless TSW6 has a route I really, really want, then I'll happily wait for a sale.

 

I suppose the problem is it's kind of hard to be excited when we know absolutely nothing about it. Literally the only we know is that is exists, which we already knew anyway, which just burns away any excitement. Just as this time next year'll be the approach to TSW7. (Of course I'd be extremely exited if Square Enix announced a new Nier by just saying that it's coming, but then that's because it's unexpected)

I get why they said nothing other than it's coming, of course. But even some small hint would leave it being a little more exciting and a little more anticipation. Which is what the leaks last year did. Gave something to be excited about. Of course in a little over a week it'll all change

tldr; saying that tsw6 is coming when we all already knew it doesn't make it exciting

 

Given the inconsistency shown by my most recent purchases, the surprisingly good HSP46 pack and the Cardiff City network which to me compares unfavorably with the Welsh routes in MSTS, I don't know what to expect from TSW6.

Hope for the best, but prepare to be disappointed I suppose.

It will take something special to persuade me to consider anything more than the free starter pack.
