    Just had a run on Rapid Transit using the Talent 2. What a truly awful experience.
    1. Barely any sound from the train - thought I was in a sensory deprivation tank.
    2. The second you close the doors, the loading counter stops immediately, requiring you to reopen the doors (and this on the ‘new and improved’ timetable.
    3. Although I earned a Gold medal, it did not count towards my total medal count.
    I think Rapid Transit is a lost cause - especially with the Talent 2. The BR 182 is a must to get any joy from the route as it currently stands.

    They released a patch that’s fixed the messed up PIS at the rear of the train and the unaligned doors but at the same time they broke the doors on the BR182 so the only to open/close the doors is to use the doors selector button but to be honest DTG wasn’t able to make this route more alive despite the BR182 added and the 143 so I completely gave up on this route and I don’t have any hope for it in the near future

    I never did care much for Rapid Transit on TSW. On TSW2, I will likely push it as far back as possible. It just wasn't a route that appealed to me.

    I only bought it (on sale) to get access to the 182, to drive on other routes. I've never driven RT except for the 182 tutorial.

    The preservation team should go through every route they’ve worked on with the aim of fixing actual problems. Too many issues linger once they’ve wrapped up their work introducing new features and functionalities.

    “Preserve” means to prevent something from deteriorating. Not a concept the preservation team has taken sufficiently into account. They are not doing a bad job updating the routes, but overall polish could be better.

    The Talent 2 sound in Rapit Transit is still strange, especially the windshield wiper, but the sound of the same model in Cologne and Dresden is a little low, but pleasant and acceptable, perhaps because it is not possible to open the windows.
    As for the counter, I've gotten lost several times with it, you have to wait until the end, otherwise it forces you to open the door and close it when completing the cycle, maybe that's how the counter worked, but they didn't update to how it is on the other routes.
    Now something that is very wrong in RT is that Talent 2 does not render properly on the external camera at a certain distance, if you move the camera away you will see that the headlights and 6 offices are irregular...

    That’s because of the LODs and it does that to other trains too

    I did a fresh install on my system without routes which are crap. RT is one of them, however i have paid for the 182.
    There is no warranty or refund for RT, so as a gesture of goodwill, the 182 should be available to customers for use on other routes.

    No on RT the Talent 2 used to be fine but a few updates ago it got broken. It doesn’t even render correctly on the selection menu. On other routes with the Talent this does not happen.

    Since TSW OG when you move backward some part become low poly and on other routes the Talent is not the same as the RT ones

    I got this route for free when DTG were giving out the preservation codes during the early days of TSW2. The sound of the talent is just awful and frankly I don't plan on touching the route again. A shame really since it has potential but just like the LIRR M7, no propulsion sounds are immersion killing. I don't think the preservation crew know what preserved means when it comes to this route.

    While yes they did fix some parts, sound is crucial in this game and I just can't play a route where the base train has barley any propulsion sound. This is why I didn't buy Harlem.

    I hope they do improve the sound eventually.

    Good morning Friends, I discovered new problems.

    In RT the BR182 does not work the commands to open and close doors with the control, only manually.

    In MSB, the Dostos' intermediate cars do not turn on the passenger lights, nor do they display the PIS.

    If DTG also broke the DB BR182 they should fix it with the working door controls from Hamburg Lubeck Route MRCE BR182. If that doesn't work to fix it why not allow the substitution of its Austrian cousin ÖBB Baureihe 1016 1116 if made to run 780 785 766.2/767.2 on rapid transit.

    I am "suffering" the same weird visual of this train, but it is the only one to have a that level of "deformity"!
    Others are just limited to the round headlights and a more distance.
    So it is not noticeable at all.
    But this one is really bad!
    I believe there is no need to do it!
    Due to you have a full model with lot of details, and just to simplify parts that are clearly visible, it is not the right solution for the visual point of view.
    May be they can save "memory" modifying some internal parts instead
