Train Sim World 6 Might Be Doomed

So many conspiracy theories, is this the TSW forum or the Joe Rogan show?

 

This is why the aliens don’t visit us.

 

No you never do anything to upset your employer. I wouldn’t say anything about my employer so why should Matt?

 

second this, you would think more people would go out Into the sun in this heatwave, maybe, relax, go to the beach, have a jog, but people won’t for some reason…I think there’s a saying that you can be too online

 

The GTX 10xx cards were pretty great when they came out and somehow still hold up today. The GTX 1080 Ti, the Bette Davis of 2010s PC gaming, can still do well compared to even the newest cards. Unfortunately they have no ray-tracing support and the 10xx line won't be getting updates for much longer, but it was a great run.

 

The GTX 10xx, 16xx and 20xx cards were good performers in their day and might still have decent specs except for the most important one - memory.

You need a card with at least 10 GB these days because there's so much more data to store and you really don't want to tap main memory. Think why the 4090 has 24 GB, overkill maybe but not for long.

That's one reason why consoles struggle a bit. I expect 10th gen will have a few more gigs to cope with this.

 

At this rate we might just get a post that just says “Matt.”

 

That would be very funny. Maybe the next time the 1st of April happens?

I've got a 3060Ti with 8GB. I should have gone with the 12GB 3060 Not-Ti, but I got it years ago. I plan to build an entirely new computer; my current one is really bottlenecked by its CPU. It can do alright regardless, but probably not for newer games. The most recent major release I've got on it is Cyberpunk, which runs decently.

I'll probably upgrade when my PC really starts to feel dated. I spent a lot of money recently on a MacBook Pro, which turned out to be a very good investment. I'd like to see what happens with SteamOS, because I'm more than willing to ditch Windows altogether.

 

I really dont have a clue why you think cutting gen8 is a good idea.
If its possible for a route to be released in full for gen8 because its more like a Maintalbahn route with the lenght and timetable etc. then i dont see why DTG should leave them behind, especially with a free starter pack existing.

But what do i know? I just believe what the developers say because they have logical arguments instead of saying "No it doesnt. Im sorry but it just doesnt.",
with the only argument being based on a "what if".

 

Because the developers work for Dovetail and have to do what they are told. At some point they have to kill the game for that generation moving forward.

They have already started to not release routes around gen 8, its only going to get worse, especially if gen 9 is struggling, which it is.

 

But if gen8 still provides valuable income, which according to DTG it does, dropping it will do more harm than good.

 

Well, exactly. DTG is obviously comfortable making addons that don't work, and aren't released, on gen 8. So what harm could it actually do to the franchise to keep gen 8 around for those addons that do work on it?
