    Just wanted to say thank you for fixing this issue. It's very much improved the enjoyment of the game and now we don't have to keep switching views to reset the sound :D

    I'm giving Arosa a try at the moment, probably the route which was affected by the jackhammer the most (at least in my experience). So far 25 minutes without issues, before it wasn't even 25 seconds - so yeah, I guess the confidence is legitimate :)

    Yes thank you dtg it took some doing but got there in the end. Much more enjoyable now. Big thanks to the audio engineers/team.
    Now can we have the flickering textures/z fighting sorted. Pretty please.

    Thank you DTG! I played on GWR and Liverpool - Crew and i found no audio's issue. Then i tested it on the other routes (the most problematic route for the audio) and it's the same... i found no problems. It finally fixed. Thank you again!

    Played on Great Western Express and East Coastway today and the issue has definitely been resolved. The audio was smooth throughout. Thank you Dovetail for fixing this issue. :)

    This sounds promising. Haven't looked at TSW for weeks now. Will have to remove some games to reinstall TSW2 on Xbox. What about memory crashes? That was the other reason for me to delete the game on Xbox

    I really hope the out of memory crashing (particularly bad on Reisa-Dresden and BML) can be resolved soon for Xbox too. When you've spent 20 mins+ to get to your destination (Dresden or Victoria) only for the game to crash on approach is a real shame.

    DTG JD sorry for the ping but it's important for me to give this post a chance to be seen.

    I have been fairly harsh and negative recently, but since the updated I've driven all the routes that gave me quite a few issues with jackhammer (apart from SFJ and Arosa), and I have to say this change is extremely good. It's great to see some focus on such a long standing issue. And the patch in general was good.

    Thanks for finally fixing this issue. The more bugs like these that are fixed, the more confident I feel recommending this game to my friends.

    Thank you DTG ! It's an amazing work ! Now if you focus on other bugs like textures flickering and performances, it would be just awesome :)
