I'm thinking it's a big consideration of DTG, but especially for consoles (who are 70-80% of their market.) There's only SO much space people are...
Yeah, itt's not perfect by ANY means. That's why they are working on improving that. However, it has to suffice sometimes when we don't have...
I keep hearing people say they want "more locos!" So, I wondered.... how many of the actual locos did we have in game already? I went to...
Can't argue there. It's your free time. I could only hope to have a job that I love so much I'd do it on my free time!
Agreed. I'd definitely put Oakville over CRR in fun and playability, but having said that Oakville is more playable already, so I can see why CRR...
Maybe we just have weird weather here, but there are spots locally where it DOES change like a light switch due to terrain, weather patterns, etc....
It's an interesting proposal to pitch to a developer (doesn't have to be DTG, could be third party too) If they can get X number of pre-orders for...
THAT is the real question.... WOULD you pay more? And are you in the minority or the majority? Not personal man, just taking the devil's advocate...
So you're gonna just complain, blame and not offer any constructive solutions? At least we know you're not interested in solutions so thank you...
I've played a few scenarios on it. It's not the worst map, but it's kinda meh. The worst part for me is the northern branch to St Ives. That...
Huh... I wasn't aware the horn sequencer on any train was speed limited. Is it a game thing or real life authentic?
Alright, let me see about recreating it. Don't have any video capture though, but could take a picture.
Well there are often red lights that come up (3 times so far for me) that make you stop in a "dead zone" to wait for traffic.... therefore you...
Was there an HST on that route in the 1990s? I honestly have no clue.
If you don't make money, the business also goes "down the pan." The customers are one part of the business yes. The "revenue" side. However,...
Not sure they're displayed in your "destinations" routing...but you can set routing destinations. I do it all the time. Or do you mean actual...
Yes, there are a few notable areas for improvement but I agree. It's a lot more fun and there are some nice (if limited) gameplay loops. I...
I know it's supposed to be "authentic" and all, but running into dead zones and areas that damage the pantograph on electric routes really make me...
Well, they are a global company now so decisions aren't made locally but at the corporate level. That's disappointing but thank you for doing the...
Good thing they don't have to turn, just go straight ahead =-) Seriously though, that's one thing I really like about the BR 628. It has very nice...
No, not THAT Rochester. The one in New York, USA. No, not near Near York City either, that's hundreds of miles away... same state though. The RSR...
Those do look like what the 1950s thought we'd be riding in by today....
That's true with most things actually. Look at how all the cars look the same, compared to the wild designs up into the 1970s. I don't think the...
Blacknred, Not sure I agree with your assessments. Sand Patch is pretty decent, lacking just more variety. I really don’t care that much about...
That's a different question but still relevant. Do we count ALL of the lines together, or just the overall length? I suppose for high speed routes...
SEHS kinda gets by being so long with having a lot of crossover. Once you make a corridor, then anything crossing the corridor (or paralleling it)...
Looks...interesting... but I don't see any diesel and just Polish track? Eh..... I think I'll stick to TSW for now. Maybe they'll come out with...
So it all boils down (again) to Brits saying "our stuff is prettier" which goes for everything from cars to planes to trains. Americans say "nope,...
I think "hate" is a strong word. I would call it more of a *yawn*. It's very boring. The usual missed opportunities to make it more interesting.
It's not a HUGE thing, but I noticed that it's referred to 3 different ways on the route. Normally it's the 628.... but when ending a run it says...
That could be it. Just didn't notice it on some other routes (and I like a lot of the daytime routes normally), but I keep forgetting that the...
That's.... the suggestion we made yes. That's exactly what's on the table. It seems like everyone keeps saying the same thing more or less at this...
It's not the length of the route, it's what is ON it. Quality vs quantity. Niddertalbahn, WSR, Oakville, Tees Valley...they're not long but they...
Yeah, you only get those mountain scenes in the last couple miles. The rest is just flat and featureless. Bit on topic but also off... did...
Why not just use the P40/F40? We already have them in game for the Northeast and Boston routes. To make it "AMTRAK" you'd just need a new livery...
What is fictional about steam engines in the American West? I didn't say the trains would be fictional...just that they wouldn't be expert level....
In option 1, which I think is what we're discussing now, it'd just be two or more linked scenarios/timetables so they'd be preplanned to work...
Well it'd be a specific scenario you'd choose, so it wouldn't be "on" unless you chose that run. It'd basically be like going into Journey mode...
After playing some more Nidder, I'm gonna have to say to me it's the best in the game (which could be entirely subjective depending on the scenery...
Good suggestions! As the saying goes, "perfect is the enemy of practical." I'm sure people with far more knowledge of the intricacies of UK rail...
