Announcing The Freightliner Class 70 From All Aboard Studios

The issues it landed with didn't trouble me as much then as the issues it has now do. On XSX, blurring has never been worse northbound out of New St since TSW7 landed. Instead of fixing their botch, it's now actually worse 12 months later. They've completely stopped responding to or acting on any feedback provided it seems.

Their next route in the pipeline? Bham-Shrews, with the exact same stretch northbound from New St that won't work on Xbox. Consider myself lucky I didn't get the 805 or TV, and you can add the 70 to that list. I pretty much own all the UK content except the AABS stuff.

 

I have far more faith in AABS than del boy and Rodney at ATS

 

And the timetable's dodgy. Things stopped off path all over.

 

With the class 70 I'm personally mostly interested in it for the MML timetable, but I'm still slightly concerned about the blurry textures when Birmingham to Crewe is one of the worst offenders, unless you turn the 350 off, even in spite of them supposedly making improvements to the 350.

Then if you read the feedback thread for the 805 (which I will admit I never actually bought) it's full of complaints about CTDs on Xbox, and well, I'm an Xbox user.

Trent Valley on the other hand, does seem a lot better, at least with the reduced timetable although I haven't played it for a while, but so far, All Aboard stuff doesn't exactly have the best reputation on consoles, in my opinion.

And if the 70 follows the £14.99 loco DLC pricing, I'm not sure I'll want to indulge, outside of a sale, especially when my use out if will mostly just be using other trains instead on the MML timetable

 

805 is still broken - not touching this until it’s fixed.

 

Still not got MML route yet but wonder if we get Cross Country 170 as AI only on the 70 timetable

 

It should be playable, not just as AI

 

Has AAS said already what year is the TT supposedly based on?

I'm thinking if they might even try to fill the EMR services with the existing XC voyager, some 80x and 170s

 

Still don’t get how they messed up a unit that already has two other versions in game before it’s release
It’s a iet they ain’t difficult feature wise

 

I think that's the plan, to add Cross Country services and more AI across the route.
