Yet another sprinter?
To be fair, it shows up in a Raltour (like the Santa Fe F7) which is supposedly accurate to the museum it's modeled from? Be kind of like spawning...
Thank you that explains it much better.
Sort of.... but I still don't understand what the "probability" is for. For AI trains? Because if I substitute a train, it's a definite thing. If...
Just to be clear, planned or unplanned? Free Roam? Or in the Editor? Because you can't just substitute any loco on any route as a vanilla...
is this the part where the door switches are "backwards?" I get that it's not ideal, but that's not "game breaking" if it's explained to people....
It hasn't been released here yet, so I'm not "missing" anything. There was talk about other routes having layers/subs on them but only the Lubeck...
Still not mentioned in the release, so people don't know looking at the release. What subs? What routes? People have been talking repeatedly about...
Yes. If it ran on it, then allow it. Doesn't matter if it's 10 years "wrong date".... I'd imagine most lines wouldn't even be obviously different...
Still just two routes listed.... hmmm
Still no mention of the "6 other routes" it would layer on per the developer. Just the one Maintalbahn layer. Hmmmm.
Not a lot of towns in the middle to go to (but for California urban commuting there's already Peninsula in San Francisco and Antelope in Los...
It would be easier to make suggestions if we had more information on what sort of content you're looking to implement or want more help on. Is it...
It's really about perception and content. Cajon Pass is actually shorter than Southeastern High Speed, but it feels a LOT LONGER because of all...
Aren't there already quite a few? Fife Circle is a long commuter route for example and that just came out. At least it seems long to me since...
Well ain't there egg on my face eh? =-) Although my point stands.... that hasn't been released so it's new information we are just now getting....
Yes and no. There could be more content, but that doesn't have to come from DTG or be all released at once. The cargo packs are a good example....
The SEHS looks so much better and it's just as long. On the other hand, I'm mixed on Wurzberg. There's a LOT to see, but some of the further out...
This is giving 204 vibes, with the bridges being too low when that came out....
This sounds like the status of the 204, not the 218. Do you have a link to this information? I've only seen officially the 218 is going on 2...
I think you could MAKE some interesting scenarios, the routes (as most are in DTG) are lacking in content as I said. For example, there's a lot of...
I wonder if anyone who is clamoring for "much longer routes" has driven the longer routes on the game, such as Wurzburg/Kassel or Southeastern...
The 218 didn't go on the Maintalbahn? I believe it did in real life. Several sources state it did. Now it ALSO went on the Niddertalbahn (and...
So anyway, back on topic... routes could be longer...but there would be consequences. Pros and cons.
Doesn't the 218 have similar horsepower to a Class 47? 2,500 to 2,750 hp range? That seems pretty decent for the time period it was built in....
He means "nothing" from TSW 3 and on. Conversely, TSW 2 and previous I think are all still locked to routes for use. At least that's how it was...
It's valid that DTG is the "publisher" of end content, but I think that criticism needs to be accurate for it to be effective. For example on a...
Has anyone ever HAD to fill up a loco in TSW? For roleplaying yes, but given that no route is longer than about 90 minutes.... Maybe if you ran a...
To be fair, you didn't make any additional point that wasn't already addressed. You don't like where DTG is spending their time. That's it....
Not sure what you mean by a "really large diesel?" The engine on the 218 is too small? I agree there aren't enough German diesel routes. But, I've...
Is DTG "putting it on" a particular route? Or is the 3rd party developer doing that? I've never heard that DTG make that call. It may be true, but...
Yes, that's why it's a "sale" for me... but it's similar to others that are just as limited so it's not "unreasaonable cost" compared to them......
a) Did you mean "TSG's pricing"? DTG isn't creating the 218. b) Don't buy it if it's not worth it to you.
Maybe it's the same answer every time because it's still true every time? "Why do you keep saying that 2+2 equals FOUR?" "Because it does?"...
Matt isn't doing it at work. He's doing it on his own free time as a passion hobby.
Yes, I thought for sure the 218 would be seen on Nidder too, but alas no even though that would be entirely accurate for the time period. I know...
While it's a personal value judgement, the Nidder to me would be even worth full price as is because I've had a LOT of fun on it for HOURS. It's...
For those complaining about the price...let's compare. The BR Class 700 is $16.99 The BR 193 is $16.99 The Flying Scotsman is $16.99 The BR Class...
Admittedly, I know very little about East German railways and routes....but that's kinda the point of this post. The companies and builders of...
Agreed. Definitely a "sale" purchase for the future. Mostly for free roam.
If it's not worth it...then don't steal it. Just don't get it. It's an odd use of the word "more beneficial" when you mean "stealing." Is it...
The average route adding them up seems to be about 75km (47 miles) That's... pretty decent. Some are half that. Some are twice that. The...
Again, the question didn't change. You are making an assumption based on your personal opinion. You don't know if either DTG or Rivet did any...
How do you know they didn't do any market research?
I REALLY like that idea. You can bundle them to sell them, but make the locos and rolling stock, etc separate for DLC purposes. Saves having to...
Adding on the last point.... looking at the Scottish rail lines in particular.... I haven't looked into getting them because of the lack of...
That last part is much of the problem. The community is very specific about needing "era accurate rolling stock" so even when we have routes that...
I'd kinda like to see what a shunter 1/3 the size of the Class 8 would be doing in the game. Could be interesting... but I fear most people would...
Valid point. As I said, I was grouping sub-classes where possible to save space and they often have MUCH of the same feel (controls are mostly...
Meaning anything introduced after the mid-1990s? Locos or liveries? Because a lot of the older stock was still rolling even then.
Separate names with a comma.
