Covid-19 Update

I may get slated for saying this but this Covid-19 was planned, all the films we’ve seen, 28 days later etc, this social distancing and other things.

Stay safe, positive and keep your eyes open, those of us who are awake to this all. No doubt people are sick, and why was this released in the atmosphere?

Now is the time to be a union of us all

 

Unfortunately, due to the progressive policies of many post-war Governments in the 1950s, the "baby boomer" generaton had been allowed to accumulate vast amounts of material wealth..... evenly distributed between the undeserving under-classes. As much as 50% of wealth is still owned by the general population, when this number, should, of course, be closer to 0%. If you allow people to have wealth - then you allow them to have freedom to self-determination. And nobody in power wants that....!

Attempts have been made to extract the property wealth from the older generations, through schemes such as "equity release", or as Carol Vorderman puts it - "the equity release service....".... - so that the wealth can be returned to the very deserving few families that should own everything and have complete control over everything... This would leave the rest of the populace in abject poverty, and subject to economic slavery - which is, of course, as it should be. But this process is taking far too long. If America is to be made "Great Again" and if the "Great" is going to be put back into "Great Britain" - then something has to change, and quickly.

A shake-up was inevitable. Western democracies can't go on just being democracies. The far right has been mobilised in nearly every important economy on Earth. Pestilence is the first step. Then you close the borders. A rise to nationalism through greed, fear and envy. And then - soon comes war. And then famine. And then the righteous few will re-gain Dominion over the shattered Earth.

Um - Is that what you were trying to say....? :D

But..... in any event - we have Train Sim World and Train Simulator 2020, to keep us all distracted from the oncoming oblivion, as we are all made subject to the "Global Curfew"... This ability to get lost in a world of trains is a not inconsiderable mercy. See - the guys at DTG aren't all bad.... They have given us trains to play with, well... until the electricity runs out...! There is a bright side to everything.... if you look hard enough...! ;-)

 

Extract property and wealth by destroying the worlds economy?
330bn and counting on the UK budget alone.
Best of health to you and your Family/Friends. Hopefully we can get through this relatively swiftly and without unnecessary losses.

 

Oh - I don't actually believe the conspiracy theory nonsense..... COVID-19 is just..... a part of life....

Actually I am an optimist.... Although the horror that will unfold over the next two years will be the worst thing to happen to human-kind...ever... even worse than 1939-45..... Afterwards.... we will have the following.....:

- nurses and cleaners will be respected members of society, and hopefully paid properly;
- the UK's NHS will not be sold off for profit for a small number of people to exploit, and it will return to being a properly funded public service;
- the positive impact of lack of human activity on climate change will be directly measured, pointing to changes that must be made in how everyone lives in the future;
- people will be more prepared to make the changes necessary to save the planet, having lived through COVID-19;
- businesses will have to move away from extreme efficiency Just In Time models to robust stress-tested models with distributed reserve capacity to respond to shocks and treat every worker more fairly;
- the horrendous zero hours culture will get wiped out;
- the world will be in a better position to understand how the next industrial revolutions, including both remote working and deployment of AI should actually be rolled out; and
- democracies will become more socially democratic, and internationally more co-operative - they will have to co-operate..... to survive.

It will actually "cost"..... $£$ trillions. But that's just numbers. The loss of life will be impossible to put a price on.

STAY SAFE GUYS - And hold out - it's gonna be a very long haul. But we'll get there.

 

Stay safe guys!
I've been playing this everyday, even learned PZB now

 

It's very nice that all of the DTG employees are in homeoffice now. That is a good effort to keep them all healthy.

I'm very hypped for the arriving of the DB BR 204 at the moment.

Stay safe.

 

Its good to see that everyone is still seeing COVID as a global impact and glad to see the wonderful team at Dovetail continue to make sure that there staff and team members are safe. Keep up the hard work you are doing to bring one of my personal favorite games come and grow up with TSW3.

 

Well done effort by the team but at that time there are mask-painted trains SEHS 395 002 395 017 WCML Over Shap 390 112 390 042 GWML 800 321 Kassel Wurzburg ICE 4 9213. I wonder if they will be made in-game or shared via Creators Club

 

You do relise the thread is from the beginning of the pandemic...

 

like what highland beastie said, this thread was made at the beginning of the pandemic. dtg are working normally now

 

Oh wow, I didn't realise we'd gotten to the zombie outbreak phase of the pandemic already, with this level of necromancy.

 

The fact that Martin also copied the post #2

 

Come on guys, we can get through this!

 

My mum who wasn’t born at the time still thinks ww2 is ongoing to be fair
