    • The ability to actually use the interior screens on the M7
    • See Roaches on the M3 Lmao
    • Announcements and working PIS for the M7
    • A Conductor Mode
    • The ability to move your seat a little more forward, or hunch over
    • Have the windows open to a certain amount (like halfway) instead of all the way open
    • Fix the traction motor noise on both the M7 & M3
    • Fix the stuttering on the route
    • Change the horn on the M3
    • And make the track noise louder

    second this 100%

    also fix the horns so they're loud when doors/windows are open and not when theyre closed, it was only a bug on the m3 in tsw and now both m7 and m3 have it ffs

    AND GIVE US TRACK SPEED lol

    Apparently, the track speed display doesn't actually work IRL on the M3.

    I did not know that. Probably makes sense though since the train is pretty old

    To me, it makes absolutely no sense. The MTA recently put the Track Speed display in there to prepare for ACSES, But some operators say it doesn't work while other say it does.

    Everybody basically said everything I wanted, just wanna keep this thread alive in hopes DTG notices it, if anything maybe make it so you can open a select amount of doors and not all of them on one side

    So apparently there is a New Train sim in development and ill be honest once its on console if dovetail dosent fix the LIRR or their act imma bail...I think the entire community should threaten the same, itll force dovetail to listen if they wanna keep their revenue

    Threats? Is that what people are reduced to now? If you want to buy other software go ahead, but bully tactics are never the way

    You don't. They will listen or they will not, without having much bearing on what you or anyone else outside of DTG do
    You can only control your actions and reactions, never those of another

    If your action is to go elsewhere and take your money with you then you're not accepting anything. If you continued to pay money on something you didn't like then you may be "Accepting the inevitable", but you said you're doing something else so...

    if dovetail gets an appropriate rival and is no longer left a monopoly it will force them to improve whether they like it or not and if they REALLY want to keep on top they'd listen to us for 2 main reasons:
    #1 keep their current community from flocking
    #2 make it more appealing to new players to choose tsw over a rival when first purchasing/ declaring loyalty to a sim due to it being more appealing in many aspects compared to other alternatives

    It seems as this "Sim Rail" isn't focused on the same areas as TSW. No American/British Routes.

    I doubt these two games will compete with each other as they are both aimed at different people.

    Is it even coming to console?

    Not too sure about that potential. The graphics don't even look all that better than TSxx. It's a new Train Sim, it won't have the same number of routes as TSxx or even TSW. And as I said before, No British or American routes so that's already leaving a huge amount of people out. I look at this new Train Sim not as a competitor, but as an extension by going to different places.

    potential to be on console i meant, however if the company is serious about it, it has potential to compete tho tbh im not too big a fan of the art style, its realistic-ish but in a cartoonish style almost

    touche, tho i do hope dovetail gets like a legit competitor so they can be forced to fix their act...time to go convince Microsoft to return to train sims so they can release ¨the train sim to end all train sims¨

    Perhaps change the name of the thread. If you call the thread shame some people may find it negative

    (adding new post to keep this thread up to date)
    it is quite the shame that there is nothing that'll force dovetail to fix their act as of the moment regarding issues in general..the best hope we have is some sort of competitor shakes up the monopoly on train sims that dovetail holds

    Anyone ever knows what happened to the world of subways series/ devs?

    I would suggest if you want to discuss other games you go find their forums.
    "Keeping this discussion alive" doesn't achieve much so hopefully a mod will close it

    youre not getting the point arent you?

    (incase youre unaware, the point is to simply in the end attempt to coeherse dovetail to improve and one of the ways I am doing so is bringing up competetors)

    ((to further iterate: why the LOVE would I be spending my time here if I actually loved these other sims, wouldn't it make LOGICAL sense for me to run to other games if I genuinely gave 2 more shits for them than dovetail???))

    welp, im keeping it alive to the best of my extent in hopes of getting someone in the higher ups to at least notice, once that occurs this whole thing can be wiped from the internet for all I care lool

    after all there is nothing much better to do

    Never gonna happen. Be surprised if "higher up" even look on this forum.
    If you want their attention, stop buying their products as previously discussed. I'm sure the forum monitors have already seen and picked up your displeasure from this post, maybe even commented on it at a meeting, but someone bringing up another bit of software on page 2 of a random post isn't going to do much
