Route East Coastway Remastered Feedback Thread

I have sat at many a red signal and had the DSD go off at me and realised I’ve left in forward with my foot on the pedal!

 

Goodaye,
Yes you are absolutely right.
Tried it today when I had a minute and the vigilance does indeed go off. I suppose I just never sat still long enough

 

It’s usually followed by the thought ‘I hope I don’t get an OTDR download for this trip!!’

 

That exact thought had crossed my mind

 

On PS5.
I was playing this route last night and I got 3 full game crashes with bug reports sent to Sony.

TSW6 has never crashed on me before and I played 2 other route before and 2 after and they did not crash.

I was playing the 2020 time table and I dint have the 171 DLC. I made 2 attempts at a service from Lewes to Brighton. First crash was just before the 40mph TSR, second crash happened just after exiting the tunnel before stopping at Falmer.

This route has never crashed on me before since relesse but I can't complete any service on it now. This is the only route that crashes the game.

 

I have since uninstalled about 25gb of DLC in US and German routes that I dont play very often and re tried the services that's previously crashed on me and now, I've no crashes anymore on this route.
There is something at the core level with memory usage and how it loads and u loads causing crashing problems even with DLC that is not route related.

 

Very disappointed that the station announcements have not been looked at. I don't have any at any stations. I've played this route inside out at all different times and nothing. They work fine inside the cab but nothing outside at the stations. Other people have said on here that they get them or they are very quite. If I play the riviera line or medway announcements are crystal clear. Any one else here with this problem.

 

Yes, I've reported it previously.

 

I assume, perhaps DTG could clarify, that the changes to the audio for this DLC in today's update were supposed to make the platform announcements audible. I spawned at both Brighton and Eastbourne and watched several trains arrive and depart and heard no announcements at all. Running TSW6 on PC.

 

Good day team

Found the one that got away !



Brighton

Sorry, but I am a stickler for rail accuracy

Thank you

 

I did hear one at Brighton on the hour. But again from the patch notes it wasn't clear what was adjusted

 

Its been like that since it released.

 

Patch notes implied they fixed that;

"Class 377

• Audio overhaul (WCML 377 sounds implemented)
• Door close button logic fixed so it can be used repeatedly
• Vigilance Pedal updated to use Alerter input"

I guess they didn't then lmao

 

For that to have been implied we have had a update for the 171/377 dlc i thought seeing as it is part off that dlc. And not ecw route. DTG Harry am right in say that Harry.

 

I’m doing journey’s in the 171 that go to Ashford International, so why is it when I get to Eastbourne it’s a terminus station? I know the route only goes as far as Eastbourne, but shouldn’t there be tracks to simulate that continuation.

 

Dont they change ends go the next station then it vears of to the right for Ashford.

 

I think you’re right. I just had a look at the station on google and it’s pretty accurate to its in-game counterpart.
That’s weird to me that a train driver has to change ends to carry on the route.

 

There's quite routes that I think.

 

Some issues can be resolved easily by loading a route, quit and then start again.

If the route has blur or slow performance then pausing the game can help remove any errors. Not all but I’ve often found it helps in some cases.

✌.

 

Yeah it reverses on itself to go down to Ashford which is even weirder to be sat on as a passenger. Was local to me seeing friends in Hastings coming from Brighton and it made me feel a little woozy going backwards the first time lmao

 

I've seen a few services that have end changes here in Yorkshire. The Lincoln to Leeds services change ends at Sheffield. York to Blackpool North at Bradford. I think LNER services that run past Leeds change ends at Leeds

 

This happens on PC at Eastbourne as well. No track at all in the station area and on the approach from around the last signal before the station. Only seen this once so far on an ECS move from Selhurst (Lewes) to Eastbourne in the 171.

 

Why is there so few jobs that stop at southeast.

 

Because that’s how it is in reality. It has an hourly service.

 

Ok thanks.

 

Even after the update when the DSD Goes off I press the circle button to acknowledge it and it still doesn’t work even after the last update I’m playing on PS5 and it’s Class 377/3 and the 377/3 Timetable this need fixing soon as possible and it’s on the east coast way

 

Because that never got updated it was just the route. For that to get updated we and update for the 171/377 dlc.

 

Played it today to give the Class 313 a stretch of its legs down to Seaford. Very impressed with the overhaul of the Seaford branch and the updated Class 313...

But there are a few things I think need clarification...

The 377/4 has updated sounds, but the 377/3 has the older less realistic sounds and physics. Both still suffer with that awful large PIS font though. So my question is will the 377/3 being getting the updated sounds? And will both sub classes receive updated PIS fonts so they match the BML 377?

A second question is, since MVL line released far superior Electrostar sounds have been created. Whilst the BML ones were highly sought after at the time, is there any chance the MVL Electrostar audio can be licenced as it has a new level depth and sharpness to them? If not I'm fairly happy with the AP sounds as they are really good too and far superior to the original, but if you don't ask, you don't find out!

It would be nice to have a fairly consistent and upto date sound package now for all the Electrostars in the game.

 

Driving 377/4 approaching Polegate (from Eastbourne) and got an AWS penalty brake, even though I'd pressed the button almost immediately...

Really starting to think I should stop giving a damn about platinum medals and just play tsw without safety systems...

 

Very weird that happened. Have you submitted a ticket or

 

I hate ticket submission forms. not worth the effort

 

PS5 Pro
I don't know if it's just a subjective feeling, but it seems to me that when I drive a 377/4 (I don't drive a 377/3, it has too many flaws for my taste), I can hardly hear anything in the cabin, even with the windows open, only the track connections on the switches, announcements, but aerodynamic noise, or something like that, is almost silent, and when I close the windows it's like a recording studio, practically silent

 

Route hopping from ECW to BML at Brighton doesn't work. Landed me here:

 

Can we please sort out the station announcements on East Coastway. There was an update a while back that changed the male voice which IMO was very good and lifelike to a very robotic new female voice that can’t even pronounce the stations properly. That and at most stations they don’t even come on whereas before the update they would work consistently well especially at Brighton and Lewes etc. it’s not exactly the end of the world but why do TSW keep doing updates that actually end up making the player experience poorer. Please take a look guys and change it back as it’s detracting from a great route that had plenty of immersive station atmosphere

 

The next stop is Brydon.
What? As in Rob?
