West Coast Main Line: Trent Valley From All Aboard Studios

There you go im xbox and nothing but blurriness and ctd. I really wish it was better I could easily play that route all day.

 

Wow. That flew over your head. For those of us who have been with TSW from the early days, TVL has always been short code for Tees Vally

 

Well I did wonder, but your post wasn't clear as to whether you were making a point about identical acronyms, or just confused.

 

On PS5 there is blurriness on the section between Birmingham and Stafford. No issues on the 'fast' stretch towards Crewe. I just hope they apply lessons learned regarding textures to the problematic sections. And of course apply said knowledge to Trent Valley from the start.

 

I was adding some balance as some of the responses might give the impression the route is awful.

I do sympathise with console users. I would probably have given up on TSW long ago if that was happening to me.

 

And rightfully so. Other than the blurriness, the route looks great and has very good gameplay.

 

Patch for our existing products is on the way, we are working very hard with DTG right now to make sure our optimisations is putting performance in a much better place

 

glad to hear the route hasn’t been abandoned. is this an update we’re likely to see in the next few weeks or is it a matter of months away?

 

Can't confirm exact date but hopefully quite soon

 

Have you been able to fix the door closing early issue whereby making the route entirely unprototypical and out of step with every other DLC? It was really frustrating having to relearn having to wait until the departure time before you could close doors and negates any enjoyment I got out of the route to the extent it’s unlikely that I’ll purchase anything further dlc that is affected by the same issue

 

sounds like this’ll be coming out within the next month, hopefully blurry textures will be avoided this time round but who knows

 

Given this is the longest UK route to date and the given that the devs struggled with optimisation on B2C and to date haven’t been able to get any improvement out, I wouldn’t hold your breath. Maybe on PC we will have a good experience and perhaps they will prove me wrong on console, but if they do then the question why they haven’t fixed their first route yet has to be asked IMO.

 

Im on xbox and I have feeling this will worse than b2c. But love to be proved wrong.

 

Despite my urge to buy this Day One (modern era notwithstanding), definitely going to apply caveat emptor and wait for the initial reports and feedback to come in.

 

i’ve got more optimism than if this would’ve been released in february/march because even the busy content recently has avoided bluriness, i haven’t encountered them once on NY-stamford despite all the layers and dense scenery. plus im hoping AABS have learnt from b2c where textures can be optimised. there’s also less stations and they’re more evenly spread out

 

As mentioned previously, update for B2C is in testing, the patch focuses on the performance front a lot and we have seen some very good results during testing, we will hopefully be able to deliver the patch very soon, for now keep an eye on comms from DTG regarding patches to our existing content

 

We will see that patch sometime next year with the way things are going.

 

Guarantee they’ve not sorted the missing AWS magnets south of Crewe.

 

Only available with TSW7 super super deluxe… :p
