    As much as I do enjoy playing TSW, seeing the issues that have plagued the Birmingham-Crewe route on consoles which was a route I was interested in but opted not to purchase amongst other issues with the game has put a sour taste in my mouth.

    It is very strange that DTG keep on releasing the wrong build of a DLC. This has happened countless times. Yes mistakes do happen, but surely there should be mechanisms in place to prevent issues like that from happening again yet they continue to happen

    Then there is issues regarding textures. I've had runs in Dresden-Leipzig and the Rivera line (Class 220) where the same texture issues that have plagued tsw 5 routes once again resurface. It's ridiculous that the texture issue still hasn't been resolved.

    I tried the conductor mode on the Morristown line but passengers at several stations didn't even bother to board the train and more often than not, my train was completely empty. Not to mention that there have been no improvements to passenger behavior so you still have the issues of them also getting stuck when leaving the train as well so now I don't bother to use the conductor mode

    Of course there are positives such as the passenger announcements (although announcements definitely need some improvements) , extending the Riesa-Dresden route to Lepizig and TSR is a nice feature but it is frustrating to see that we have major issues that still are not resolved. It's frustrating and frankly exhausting to see DTG making the same mistakes over and over again. DTG have made good quality content but it also feels like they don't seem to learn from their mistakes but are happy to sell you the next $40 untested bug ridden DLC in quick succession whilst major issues still remain.

    DTG can and should do better

    I don't like DTG bashing and I have always thought we are lucky to have a train simulator on consoles with so much content. This should be exciting times for DTG with so many third parties getting on board. No one minds to much if a newly released route has a few bugs to begin with. But these long standing core issues (eg blurry textures) are making the game unplayable at times.

    Everyone is entitled to their opinions, I respect that...
    But I want to acknowledge the sheer creativity in this song; it's amazing ! :D

    It honestly feels like when DTG take one step forward, they take two steps back. I agree with your point

    Absolutely hellfire.

    Of course it's not all bad but just so topical in light of the AAS debacle and all the issues from the TSW6 introduction (like broken Journey modes) still waiting on a fix.
