    Think what you like, I ain't tarring anyone, but there is a distinct difference between constructive criticism and whinging.

    Good day sir.

    Compering Tsw with abusive relationships is anything but civil.

    You've literally added your own opinion, to a thread about how some of us have had enough. Don't agree, don't get involved with the thread. It's not rocket science

    Granted it was bad form and a poor analogy but its not like anyone involved is name calling or bullying etc

    I never said anything about name calling or bullying though, I was referring to those who (from where I'm standing at least) seem to just want to criticize dtg no matter what they say or do and when some of us dare to disagree with them, we're told that we're seeing dtg through rose tinted glasses or we're just dtg apologists.

    Whales and fanboys too. To me that’s ignorable noise but you make a good point

    and I agree there are folks who are negative by default.

    Then you heard incorrectly. You will have access to every asset in every add-on you own and have installed; you can simply clone whatever you like.

    The funny thing is … I’m perfectly willing to download 283 gig of dlcs again just to get these new routes. There is one thing railfans have in common … we have too many trains.

    oh and then I’ll have to finally get round to deleting all my tsw2 content.

    and I’ll be happy as all hell when I boot tsw4 for the first time

    Railfans are twisted

    Whales is a term coined by the Japanese gaming market for those who purchase every DLC, game, add on etc.
    It's also an ethos for alot of developers and companies as its them who keep them funded.
    If you meant I was implying about someone's weight, your hugely mistaken

    Sadly both definitions apply to me

    a whale is also a gambler prone to losing all their money

    In which case, that could also be true in this case, as technically we gamble if dlc is going to be in working order, then lose our money when it isn't. Technically

    It was exactly the same. And it’s a lot of the same people from last year doing it. They were apparently done with DTG then but are still here now proclaiming to be done again.

    I think the pram was still fairly complete with toys, there may have been one or two on the floor. This time the pram has been upturned!

    You always get the odd attention seeker though.

    from how I read that, that ain’t the case I’ll try asking for Clarity though.

    DTG Matt or DTG JD or DTG Alex, will older routes be still open to receive future updates or content whatever they may be in TSW4 if they’re not getting any updates or future content in TSW3, As confirmed by the FAQ ?

    Edit: Clarity Confirmed, older routes in TSW4 are open to potential future updates and potential future content.

    i wish there was a more nicer thread where people could talk about whether they agree with tsw4, seems to always end up going downhill

    Whales is a term coined for a few players whose spend exceeds the total amount spend by regular players. TSW does not have whales if you leave game pass out of the equation. Whales is what some companies thrive on. I do spend a lot of money on TSW but not enough to keep their business afloat

    All threads nowadays seem to go toxic.

    That's because many members on here have their own agenda. When they don`t get what they want, they throw their toys out of the pram and disrupt what would have been useful threads.

    Its all about the likes !!

    Don't worry on the 26th once we push the purchase button the mothership will arrive to take us to our real home. Where we will live forever in peace and harmony.

    On the 21st for the preorders, or should I say pre-boarding.

    Nanoo nanoo.

    It was pretty obvious.
    TSW 3 launched, TSW 2 was dead.
    Now TSW 4 has launched, TSW 3 is dead.

    Regardless of what DTG said or did not say, anyone that thought otherwise was kidding themselves.
    Do I agree with this, not really. But it is what it is.
    TSW is an escape for me, and my expectations of the product are no doubt way lower than some on here. I enjoy the game.
    Will I upgrade? Maybe, probably.

    Agree to some extent, but In business, not all customers are good customers.

    Yes, we'll continue to update older routes as we have done throughout the years, for Train Sim World 4.

    We also expect a fairly sizeable patch upon release for some of that older content in TSW4 (some info on that in the Roadmap, but also some content still to be finalised).

    True but a bad customer is better than not having a customer.

    The most disappointing thing for me is the lack of fixes for issues in the performance, the pop in, shadows, the scenery. Some scenery is truly horrific. Im on TSC tonight and yeah the graphics and the lighting arnt as good but the routes have real craft in them. Houses are well modeled and have abundant variety. Where is that in TSW3? Peninsula Corridor has UK houses!

    As an aside - some very heated debate on this thread. Emotions are running high, so I'll leave this thread open - with some tidying and warnings for anyone who has stepped over the line tomorrow morning.

    If the behaviour doesn't improve, it will get locked.

    I for one will be getting tsw4 myself. I do get why some people are frustrated because DTG did promise fixes for tsw2 and 3 yet they haven't been seen so i do understand why you are angry i would be myself

    I think the trouble is; People won’t accept change, and are reluctant to try it I guess. Similarly to how some preserved railways live in the past about how things should be run - but that’s another completely different argument ;)
    On a positive note - has anyone got any plans for PC Creator? :D lol

    JD, This is where sometimes DTG lets themselves down.
    It was very easy to take from the stream that any content from TSW 3 and before was done. In fact, some took joy in announcing this as FACT.
    What should have been said in the stream is that older content may still be fixed/modified/improved, but only when played within the TSW 4 core.
    Clarity its what's needed, otherwise you end up with the forum like it is tonight. An absolute mess of mis-information, hate and toxicity, which at times is both sad and unpleasant to read.

    This was the clarification I needed.
    Since I want at least one of the new routes, I’ll be able to upgrade for no additional cost beyond the standard DLC price. I have no basis to complain.

    True, those who don’t want any of the new routes are getting hosed, but that seems like a small (though vocal) minority.

    Question: will future standalone DLC include the base game? So if one has TSW3 and buys something that releases later in the year, are they automatically upgraded?

    Answer of a part of the vocal minority : no, if you want tsw4, you need go through one of their tsw4 packs, not dlc.

    I see no reason for DTG to change..

    Indeed, if you want the promised fixes for the content you already bought for TSW3, you need to buy TSW4. Well, that's me out. Can't support that business model.
