been doing this scenario tonight and I get stuck at a red light after I connect to the 2nd unit and drive back to Queens Street I have to stop to allow another train to move forward but that is also stuck at a red light
Happened to me too. The train from Cardiff Central stops at a red light and won't move. This could have been found if someone at DTG actually played this on a ps5...
I just finished it on XB1X, when you are instructed to contact the signaler, the go-ahead to proceed at restricted speeds did lag a bit, and the first Red signal never gets the White lights indicating it's okay to pass the Red signal, but I tried contacting the signaler again and I got the message "train is off Path". I took the chance and slowly passed the Red signal while holding the "Train Stop Override" I watched the train and saw it pass the signal and as it entered the station I was given a Yellow signal to proceed at caution and the Green soon after, I restarted the service, because the first time I thought I had screwed up.
The weird thing is the path for me was there and then gone the next second, it;'s like it is glitching out.
I also got stuck at the red light. Very annoying as its becoming occurrence again. . Obviously they never bother actually testing things on consoles. I'm on xbox X. Seems like they are abandoning consoles. So many problems and no fixes.
Actually DTG is putting more time and effort into consoles taking a guess say 55 45 split between XB PS and PC, a bit off topic you can now cloud game TSW5 how good ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But as I did show above in post #3 I did complete the scenario, it was a bit quirky and a little glitchy but after a restart.
So it was not just me then! the problem is things like scenarios should be properly tested I can accept a few broken services but the 5 or 6 scenarios you get should be tested and the fact it just happens on my first attempt must show they dont even bother to test. I think also having to test 8th gen consoles as well does not help. I think they need to be dropped for TSW6 so as to free up more time for testing gen 9 consoles because clearly they are rushing out content when its not ready
Update I did the scenario again from scratch as someone who likes to save I only saved once BEFORE I used the phone to contact the signaller and it did work I managed to get to finish the scenario and the train I was waiting for the signals went green. I think this may be a game save issue. I would recommend you DONT save after you contact the signaller
You're implying that they test any version properly. They probably just run an AI script through it to make sure trains don't derail and call it done.
I've just managed to finish this. Do not save during it. Don't hold circle (or corresponding button for your device) to contact dispatcher, only press on the phone once when directed. (Also, when going to the depot, check the switches lol)
I saved once but that was before using the phone and yes you do need to manually check the points. But yes good advice
Doesn't work on Xbox Series X same signal point won't turn green even if the other service stops before the other signal or after it proceeds past Cardiff Queen St CF 2870
I had a red signal issue on this scenario, but the signal wasn’t displayed on the hud. I took the chance of driving through it and it didn’t spad. So the scenario completed. Pretty poor that a DLC can release with a broken scenario though. Scenarios and Journey mode should have been tested.
And you contacted the signaler before you went past the Red Signal correct, I was expecting the the two white signal lights to turn on indicating the okay to pass the Red signal but that never did happen, unless on this route this si not an option or that is how it is IRL? I ran this service three times, and only twice was able to complete it. Once the train we needed to wait for to pass was stopped at the red signal. Almost like it's hit or miss
I've done it 3 times first time I saved after contacting signaler second time the train in question stopped at a red signal third time it went by but that first signal after the bridge before the junction will not allow me to bypass it resulting in a spad
I will give this another go, on this scenario and see what happens, I recently, and reluctantly, got Series X, I did complete it on the X1X, if it fails again, I guess I will put in a support ticket.
Give it another try, I just completed it for the Third time, on Series X, after you get the permission to proceed at restricted speed, stay below 15Mph, this time I stayed at 7Mph while I pressed and held "Train Stop Override" whether this helped or not I can't say but I did not spad out nor did I get a penalty brake. I also watched the train 2R40 as I passed by with no issues this time. And once it passed the station I got a yellow then green signal and completed it.
i'll try again and see what happens i guess it's because i went past the red signals above 15 mph, Edit even holding the override button with safety systems on still spad at the signal after stopping for the service to go ahead after collecting the disabled train
bump for notice on Xbox Series X too Edit I tried again but without safety systems on and not calling dispatch and it worked fine.
Not contacting the signaler, you should have spad out at the red signal, getting past the red signal like this should not have worked, unless a recent patch screwed up a few things. I could not get past it without spad, and I did try; I had to get the "proceed at restricted speed" message first.
Exactly the same issue on PC version. Once you have connected the broken down unit and you travel back towards Cardiff Station you have to stop at the red signal to let a service pass. This service appears to also get stuck at a red signal meaning that your Red signal will not change because the service in front hasn’t technically passed. if you contact signaller it is just access denied and if you pass the red signal, you fail. I have found a YouTube video of someone doing this scenario that replicate the exact issue, (Timestamp 30:54) This game is just continuously annoying when it is just bug after bug, and I’m seriously getting sick of it. If you are going to charge what you charge for DLC’s at least make sure it bloody works. There was nothing more frustrating than sitting in there playing for 30+ minutes to not be able to complete the scenario
the only time i contacted the signaler was before going to connect to the disabled train going downhill not going back up without saftey systems on
Okay, now that is odd, so then a wrinkle we have now with the safety system bug? It seems like a safety system bug now, along with more and more UI bugs, This is not looking good.
might give this a shot because i already tried it 3 times and it didnt work and one time the train didnt even couple.
Clearly, this one service is clitchy, I reran this Last night, I had AWS DSD active, followed the instructions to contact the signaler, went past the RED signal at 10 mph, and did the same thing as in post 17 above
The issue is not the point of going to the disabled train, it's after when coming back up not the first signal but the second one where you have to stop at
Yes, I understand that, and in Post 14 I show the AI-driven train "2R40 " sitting at a red signal, I have video of it for almost 17 mins, it never moved, and I sat at the red signal waiting, also, which is on what looks like an elevated railroad trestle, I had to restart, as I was not moving. All I am saying is I completed it again, 5 out of 4 times I was able to complete the service, with all safety systems on, and followed all instructions. Clearly, this one is bugged, it you can do it the way you did it and it should not have worked, and another player is also trying it the way you did it, and others on PS are finding ways to complete it, it's buggy, yes? I will run it again and even try what you did and record it, and see what happens.
