Mystery Stream Next Week | What's Coming?!

It wasn't a blunder, that was the mock-up they did for GBR.

 

I hope for Preston - Crewe stream on Thursday and announcement article.

 

It really is bad compared to 90% of the other game play packs

 

If it was minor or related to the Trent Valley line I feel like DTG's ambassadors would know about slightly. From the recent videos I've watched from train simulator driver on YouTube recently it seems like DTG has also gone silent with it's ambassadors which is unusual and last time I heard train simulator driver mentioning any communication with DTG it was regarding the ATS's class 90.

 

That’s a fair point. Sounds interesting.

 

Maybe it's not even an announcement and they just haven't had anything confirmed.

 

'sThe mystery is that DTG has disappeared off the face of the earth. They could announce new PS sales, but not update the RFTV thread, or announce that tommorow's stream is cancelled, which i highly suspect it is. 10 Community and Marketing Managers and cannot do community stuff only the marketing part.

 

It's due to be tomorrow, not today.

 

Livestream is cancel ,even if it wasn't today, he unfortunately saw the future.

 

well, that was anticlimactic

 

I still think the livestream was about trent valley, but apparently something is going very wrong with this DLC

 

We could also say that our forseeable purchases towards DTG are also canceled. Until they figure out what the hell they want to do with their product.

 

I love that the most reacted emoji to that discord message is a laugh

 

From the start, I was under the impression that the livestream was going to be a preview of a release (Trent Valley?) that may or may not have been ready in time for Thursday, which is probably why they didn’t reveal what it was initially.

If a product isn’t ready, then I’d definitely rather they spend more time polishing it and ironing out bugs than rushing out a release or previewing an unfinished product.

 

What DTG has done with this puzzle is just ridiculous.
The community has had two weeks to write about it and puzzle over it, and now there’s nothing at all.
DTG would be better off just announcing a livestream two or three days beforehand, rather than so long in advance.

And when are the promised updates for May coming? They’re probably hidden behind another puzzle as well.

 

This is a solid comedy, without the need for another purchase

 

DTG - Solid purveyors of comedy, no purchase necessary.

These days they seem better at comedy than actually providing enjoyable content, maybe they should change their business model.

 

Maybe they don't even know ........ that I'm already successfully working on it

 

I hope Running Train comes to consoles someday, because I'll probably abandon TSW altogether.........I've spent about two hours on TSW in the last month. I used to do that in one afternoon.....I'm starting to see it as a bit of a waste of time on PS5 with no optimism for a fix.

 

This is what happens when people moan when they don't publish thr schedule for streams so they announce one, but then end up not being able to commit anyway.

Although I do find it funny they were so mysterious about this one but then ended up cancelling it for mysterious reasons.

Can't help but feel in future it would be better for them to just announce streams like a day before when they can guarantee to commit to it, whatever day that may be (unless that would be a weekend, of course)

 

I think everything is going to merda.

 

They cancelled the stream for Tomorrow … DTG is becoming nothing but pure disappointment…

What could’ve been ..

 

I just hope GP60M and Tadami Line come out before the (inevitable) TSW7
I can't wait any longer

 

DTG are becoming a joke right now. If there was any doubt about the mystery subject being ready on time, then whoever is lead PR should not have green lighted Harry’s bubbly announcement. At this point all they’ve done is slap a corporate custard pie in their faces. And to be brutally honest I don’t even really care now what the purpose of the mystery reveal was, just another example of premature exasperation like when they put the Class 104 on the roadmap based on a couple of 3D modeller screendumps and a, “This is what I’m doing”, from the developer.

Anyhow, off to do a bush flight in MSFS 2020.

 

Who cares? Enough still left to play for me, especially since I picked up some stuff in the sale today. The pace will certainly pick back up, until it again reaches 5 releases per month next March.

 

Indeed, no updates and also no news or stream about the new TSG route, what was promised for this month.
Announcing a mystery stream and then cancelling it with no info whatsoever sounds also not really fair.....I don't know what is going on with DTG, but it's not going that well, at least not with communication.

 

Are DTG trying to replicate the real railways by announcing & then cancelling everything? They couldn’t organise the proverbial drink in the local….
This nonsense is beginning to wear very thin now!

 

Yep….I was the second person to vote for that…the others didn't seem appropriate!!

 

I don’t think that’s the Community’s gripe in all honestly…it’s the fact that the left hand doesn't know what the right one is doing at DTG. The ‘marketing’ team really don't know what they're doing in all honesty.

 

I think the counterpoint would be that DTG should wait until they have the finished product, test it and if it works then announce the "mystery" stream. This kind of situation, despite being hilarious just makes them look a bit silly.

 

It makes them look like a bunch of amateur kids trying to run a multi £million business.

 

This is it, right? Rather take time to fix existing stuff and better test new releases than churning out content that isn't good enough. I'm confident that good things are happening behind the scenes rn

 

The longer I think about this, the more I get the idea this stream was not about a previous announced product. Could it be possible this cancelled stream had something to do with the GBR license and an announcement of more liveries?

 

While I mostly agree with you, I don't think that it was pulled because they need to put more effort in fixing things, after all they have a fix-list a mile long already which seemingly is getting ignored. I'm sure it's just called "the pile" by now...

 

Im worried about something serious wrong intern. They canceled metro rivivals and now its so quiet around TSW so that can be a serious financial crisis. They communicate noting and what they did was concerning. I hope im wrong but is for me to much coincidence.

 

They are probably very busy with TSW7 and new routes for it. In about 4 months time, we are at the end of September, what is normally the time to release a new game. So no, I don't think this there is a (financial) crisis.

 

Lmao classic DTG comedy

 

Still doesn't explain why they would cheerily announce a mystery stream, then cancel it. Whatever "it" was, presumably was outside of whatever work is taking place around TSW7 etc.

 

Well this is the fifth time a stream has been delayed, well done doesn’t test games, like bloody hell is it really that hard to have backup people for streams?

 

It wouldn't be as quiet if they hadn't unloaded a barrage of 6 DLC on us in March. That's what, two to three months of releases usually crammed into one month and now they're hopefully busy with a barrage of Bugfixes for all that rushed content.

Just my speculation.

Besides, didn't they say they wanted to push a massive core update and lots of fixes for German content at th end of May? Only two work days left in that month....

Anyway, I learned to care less for TSW after visiting my family last month and taking a load of rail trips while there. Took my notebook with me to play some TSW. Ended up playing what, two hours in total maybe? Played far more with my sister's doggo than TSW.

Also I discovered Final Fantasy VII Remake runs like a charm on my new PC, so I've got plenty better stuff to do than care for TSW these days.

To conclude: forget about TSW, get doggos, they're much more fun and cuddly anyway. And they actually show affection.

 

That's right, it doesn't explain anything about the mystery stream. I even think the stream hadn't anything to do with an already announced product. As said before, maybe something with the GBR license.

 

I hope thats the truth but in combination with the very bizar cancellation of metro rivals im not convinced of anything.

 

Or this could be nothing more than an illustration of what happens behind the scenes many times that we never see. This time there was communication in the form of an announcement of a stream they hoped to have but unfortunately ended up not having, as opposed to no announcement of an unconfirmed stream. So communication about potential activity or no communication, what do people prefer?

 

Are the financials of DTG public? In that case we can see how they did last year. But I'm not surprised about the cancellation of MR, actually I think it was a smart move to cancel it now and not invest even more money in it. Back to your core products and products you customers expect is the right thing to do.

 

Well the conversation with Harry on Discord points to it being to hot for people to be livestreaming tomorrow as the reason for cancelling.

 

Too hot for a live stream?
I wonder what these people think of construction workers, road construction workers, city bus drivers, or any other job that doesn't involve sitting in front of a monitor with the air conditioning on?
Is there still someone in charge over there, or is everyone sending out resumes here and there in an attempt to change jobs?

 

Pull up Entertainment does and according to them last year saw revenue 280.5 million EUR.

Key Drivers

Major Titles: Driven by strong performance from titles such as Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and Train Sim World 5.

So I'm sure they are doing pretty well for themselves.

 

I'm sorry, but as in real life, it's not the numbers that count but the management.
