Dtg Are You Actually Trolling The Community?!

Ps.. if the fries are overcooked can I have a rebate?

 

You are thinking of the Platinum Special Extra Toppings Bazinga Edition.

 

Thx.. deffo go large then.. lol

 

they'll surely call it the Train Sim World Definitive Edition

 

Considering it’ll be a modernization of an ageing sim and will probably break even more, Train Sim MAX, at least it won’t kill people when the bugs inevitably pile up.

 

I’ve been here coming on 5 years now, and the pattern is clear:

• “new” version every year - everyone moans, I get the free version and wait for a compelling DLC
• much-anticipated DLC is released - console players bear the brunt, PC players mostly happy apart from the rivet counters
• DTG promise fixes “soon”
• fixes get forgotten or swamped by platform incompatibilities in next DLC
• more moaning, bans, e-war
• repeat

My survival strategy is to mostly avoid the day one hype, read between the lines of all the moaning, and just enjoy driving the routes that work for me. It’s just a game. One I enjoy more often than not, and one that I take an occasional punt on if something shows up in a sale that looks interesting (WCMLS, ECML, Riviera, Cardiff). I’ve only bought a few day ones, those being the routes I absolutely know I’m going to enjoy (looking at you JT and All Aboard!), and so far that’s kept my blood pressure just right.

YMMV

 

TSU will definetly support mods, but not at release. There will be a post-release update soon afterwards integrating mod support. While there is no specific timeframe for this feature, it is aimed to release a few weeks after the full release of TSU (maybe it will also release the earliest with TSU5 or never, but nobody needs to know that).
TSU will also have a World Editor, although this feature is also not ready for the initial full release. There will also be a post-release update soon after release, adding this important feature, together with comprehensive documentation.

 

This statement is not unrealistic, exaggerations aside.

A video game is generally considered "current" or modern for a period of five to ten years after its release.
However, this time frame can vary greatly depending on the quality of the title, its genre, and post-launch support.
This of TSW (and UE4) is pretty much the limit.
After all, the defunct MR NY would have been developed with a current engine.
And I'm not saying TSW is horrible.
It's just had its day.

 

In simulation games, engine age i think is fairly irrelevant, take modern DCS for example, it still uses the same engine (although updated and modified) from back in the Lock On: Modern Combat and Flanker days, to be honest i think most 3d engines used today are at best modified and updated versions of there launch selves, kinda like how modern car and truck engines are still at there heart the same as the 1st internal combustion engines, as for UE4 as engines go, it's not a bad choice, it has good support and a long history over many games, but as a base for a simulation I'm not sure if it was the right choice.

 

This video (in cloudy weather) is enough to understand what state the graphic resolution of TSW is in 2026.

 

Can you elaborate this further?

 

What is there to learn more about?
Pictures (a video in this case) are worth a thousand words.

 

Dont mean to be rude but whats your point its cloudy and its raining. That what happens.

 

I don't get it either. What's the graphics resolution got to do with the weather?

 

Yes, when you add context to said video.

 

But you really didn't understand what I meant?

Okay, have a wonderful day.

 

You didn’t say anything, that’s the point we’re making.

 

OK, I'll file that conversation under "pointless" then.
At this point, this thread might as well be renamed to "Community, are you actually trolling DTG"

 

With all due respect, if someone has trouble understanding you, perhaps instead of sarcastically wishing them a wonderful day, it would be a lot more helpful to perhaps try explaining what you said in a different way

 

DTG Harry - as this topic has now run it's course and has become more of a let's attack each other, as the original poster could I request this thread gets locked please. Thanks.
