Xbox Xbox Sale

I would pick up the Preston- Carlisle but the only the TSW 6 version is showing the sale price and have no intention of paying/ redeeming MS points twice

 

TSW5 is on Game Pass although it’s leaving soon.

I’m not aware of any plans to add TSW7 to Game Pass at this time. It’s certainly not on there currently as far as I can see.

 

My bad there was a button on the free starter pack beside install that said upgrade to Ultimate.

I thought that meant upgrade to Gamepass Ultimate as they sometimes do with other games.

But no its upgrade to the Ultimate Edition.

Don't worry I will see myself out.

 

Most likely not, as this is normally not the case on the Xbox store for TSW DLC. Routes are also updated/patched in later versions of the game, so playing them in TSW6 or 7 will give the best experience anyway.

 

What do you mean, you can buy this route and play it on TSW6 or TSW7.

 

if you buy the older versions you’re entitled to the new versions so would get the upgrades

 

Yes, but playing the routes on older games can give you bugs which already have been fixed in newer versions of the game. So the only reason for playing on older versions of the game are archievements, but U don't care about that.

 

I do care about that and got refunds for 3 DLCs (Train Sim World® 6: Glossop Line: Manchester - Hadfield & Glossop, Train Sim World® 6: Peak Forest Railway: Ambergate - Chinley & Buxton, Train Sim World® 6: West Cornwall Steam Railtour) after purchasing them in a previous sale and realising they only worked with TSW6

 

It’s totally not like they said they weren’t going to be compatible from day one of tsw 6, it wasn’t a secret or anything

 

it was before I was active on here and I wasn’t hanging on every word of the dovetail directs, it was only after I bought them assuming they’d work like previous DLCs I’d bought that I googled it and found out they weren’t compatible so I got a refund.

That stance from dovetail makes it even stranger that they wouldn’t include the older versions in sales. Especially when some of the older routes have been improved so you’d be playing more for an inferior version than the upgraded version on sale.

 

There currently two versions listed on the MS store. One for tsw 6 and another for tsw 7

 

Agree 100%. I'd love to mop up some of the outstanding achievements from TSW4 DLC, TSW5 DLC etc. but it's unreasonable to have to pay RRP for the DLC when I can get exactly the same DLC for 50% off or more for TSW6 in a sale.

I suspect that killing off the DLC back compatibility has probably cost DTG more than they realise. Certainly both you and I have kept money in our pockets that would otherwise be in the DTG coffers as a result.

 

And one for 5, but you can buy the one with discount and play it on TSW6 and 7.
