Enough Is Enough!!!

Phil Mitchell Husky Voice: " 'Ello, is that you Yorkie? I've gotta tell you something... *Grunt* *Hiss* *deflate*... I get aroused by trains more then my Shirley... Now get your two tones out!"

(All in jest ofcourse)

I'll get my coat!

 

Fun fact: The truck cab is empty. The driver is in the train car, controlling the truck remotely.

 

Yes please. TSG to the stage please.

 

Ah yes. The class 150

 

Looks like a 156 to me...

 

Indeed, I've never had an issue with this forum over the years. The only time I've had a post edited was because I briefly mentioned piracy, but other than that it's been fine.

I once asked why they couldn't add a like system and I was told to use WNXX instead.

 

Go to a forum meal and they'll tell you why they say that (it's a common response).

Ultimately it's their forum and it's up to them how to run it. It's not how I would do the rules personally it but you can't argue with the results and they have to balance accessibility for some extremely highly strung and/or vulnerable people (given the hobby) as well as easy going chancers like us (as I said I've had countless warnings myself and am blocked from posting in half the forum). And no I don't have Stockholm Syndrome... just respect for the staff having met a few of them. Again, in real life, they are much more chilled than they come off in the medium of text.

I imagine a lot of the antagonism would be diluted if they changed the template warnings which start "It has come to our attention that" etc etc which almost seem designed to wind people up by overstating the perceived severity.

 

I don't know what it is like now days, but I remember originally WNXX was a contrast to the over moderation of RUK, and was quite a lawless forum!

 

Not like the good ole days but nothing ever is

I miss the internet of c. 2002ish. Just before the normies started to take over with their constant taking offence at anything and everything.

And now we even have bloody laws about what you can do ffs. If this was 2002 and I was a time traveller, I could put lemonparty.jpeg here to demo what we'll no longer be able to do in the future. No doubt it'd be deleted eventually once a mod saw it, but it'd be seen as jolly japes cause we all understand each other on the internet and don't have to worry about people blowing a nut. Now I can only weep.

 

I mainly lurk there nowadays as I don't feel welcome to express myself in my own way.
How ironic that a load of trainspotters can't create an inclusive atmosphere!

 

*Sarcasm*

 

The superior class 150

I've just been and checked this evening before going down the coast. It's defo a 150, just one of those fancy pants ones that has a six instead of a zero!

 

We really need a laughing icon to accompany the Like button!

Technically they do have the same engine and drive train underneath.

 

Slight difference I thought....?

But yes. Close enough

Is that the next goal? Get to 156 pages before the release of TSW5 lmao XD

 

How about this peculiar 47 with 2x high intensity lamps...

 

I think your a bit late buddy

 

#Before Photoshop or ai! (maybe even before Tinternet)

 

I like 150

 

Hit the uninstall button again last night the JT 86 was fun as was having a dabble on WcMLOS in general. Back to MSFS 2020 and Zusi with some TSC also. Will keep an eye on TSW but without random events or routing and no sign of anything remotely interesting DLC wise it's 300gb HD space I would rather use for other stuff.

 

Just thought I would re-post the original post, since we are now in the blackout period before the release of the latest version!

 

I've just checked ... I havn't bought anything for TSW since then ... huh. Last route was Niddertalbahn and since then they havn't published anything of interest for me. So I guess, I'm out?

 

so does nobody want to operate this thread during release chaos?

 

Jeez this thread must be around 2 years old now amd still going

 

I've been a TSW player since the early days of TSW (before 2020 was added to the name), and for the first time I have opted not to enter the presale beta group and only upgrade to the free starter pack. For the first time I really felt the need to let my wallet speak about the direction TSW is going, with an increasing list of game breaking bugs that will probably never get fixed. I'm currently trying to install it, but I need more than 250 GB to install the free starter pack (I guess because all my DLC is installed immediately too?) and I don't have that space available at the moment as TSW5 is still installed and I refuse to remove it before verifying TSW6 installation and my player profile transfer were successful. I'm really considering to stop buying any new content unless DTG ups their game regarding releasing new content with game breaking bugs. It's a pity, as I've always enjoyed playing TSW over the last 7 years but I'm tired of the yearly hassle of "upgrading" by needing to redownload the full game with all its DLC. Please DTG, consider switching to a more user friendly way of upgrading your core on a yearly basis.

 

If you look closely then you will see that this thread has been nailed to its perch.

 

If you ever feel useless, remember the HST engine room light can be flipped on

 

If you are on Steam, before even trying installing TSW6, go to its properties in the library and deselect all of the DLCs to install (or leave only those you want installed). With only 1 or 2 DLCs selected it should not require more than 20 GB of space. I don't know if there are similar options of deselecting DLCs before installation on Epic, Microsoft or consoles. The core alone without any of DLCs selected for installation requires only 6.34 GB (on PC Steam).

 

Love the photo reference. Well played sir

 

Enough is only enough, when you have had enough.

 

I'm not trying to ruin your fun here but did you know the engine light is visible in the dark when it's switched on?

 

No wonder the railways are in trouble, didn't anyone tell them that's not how they work

 

Meanwhile in the news:
Scientists explain terrifying reason they think we received a signal from parallel universe

 

Enough is only enough when you've had enough of the enough is enough thread

 

The original reason given for this post has been extended not only in time, but also over 3 versions of the pet shop what inspired it

 

Damn, the Class 150's been though quite the overhaul.

 

Was going to say. Unless ATS fudge it up, the Class 90 actually one of the better things to look forward to in TSW and doesn’t really deserve to be in our whinge thread!

 

Oh yeah, that I'll agree on, that might be the first thing revealed I've actually had a real interest in this round. The foreign routes I unfortunately have to remain skeptical on until we actually get them in our hands. Both because the companies are unproven, and because we have no bloody release timing for them. This though? While I didn't buy their route I at least understand it's solid, plus I'm more certain this will make the release cycle than any of the routes.

 

Of the three, the Czech route seems the mostly likely candidate.

However the lack of branding raises at least a yellow flag, could run into issues when DTG peer review it and check for licensing etc. (though you would think they had done that already) and it turns out the whole thing is a bit informal.

Again, I really don’t think they should be announcing or putting these things on the Roadmap until the end product is pretty much assured. That means DTG themselves actually having played the route or seen verified working video footage, not just a few static screenshots. Or even worse, as happened with the Class 104 DMU, a screen dump from a 3D modelling programme - “Ooo ooo ooo, that looks nice, get it on the Roadmap.”

 

some roadmap sections only leads to people wanting routes and then having to wait for years to it arrive
example the Japanese route Tadami Line
hopefully it arrives this year but i doubt it

 

Thing is there's a good balance between what DTG does, which is reveal something with practically no lead time. And what's being criticized about Simtrack, which is that they announced something clearly in early development only for it to never reach a releasable state. JT's probably a model counter-example in this regard, we know their content a couple months out, but they actually provide updates with plenty of images and even video on it. And importantly they do seem to make sure they wait until they have the content in a playable state before announcement. That should be the model that everyone follows, even lot of big game companies could learn that. (See Microsoft & Perfect Dark for example of a similar Simtrack type situation)

 

Well, it's currently the only reason I watch roadmap streams. If nothing new from Tadami is listed in the roadmap article, I simply skip watching the steam.

 

I mean it *looks* like its only in a single livery and presumably just the freight variant so maybe deserving a little whinge. If only we could have the value of old AP addons where you pretty much got everything in a single pack. (MK3As and a DVT pretty please).

 

Need to buy Vern a smaller glass so that his glass does not always feel half empty.
