Only played Riviera so far and this is obviously before all the layers appear next week, but it’s very smooth on Xbox Series X. Not had any...
Only had time to do one run so far, but it was superb. Was really impressed with the scenery between Plymouth and Totnes - for all the focus on...
Worth noting if you go PS4 to PS5 or Xbox One to Xbox Series then your DLC comes with you.
Why does Xbox end up with old build issues every single time?
Given how close to launch the stream was and given WCMLS at launch last year wasn’t great, feared the worst going into this. Shouldn’t have done,...
Glad we’ve got the 52 rail tours for at least a little taste of that era.
They’ve given everyone the earlier version so it gives anyone who didn't already have it all the loco/layer entitlements that come with it.
266 for me. Which considering I’ve got 2 young kids and very little free time, is pretty good going!
On a similar note, I pre ordered deluxe on Xbox and it’s now fully downloading all the included content (no others until 30th, obviously). So...
All the layering mentioned in the new article about this route sound excellent. A lot of packs required but luckily for me it’s all stuff I...
Is the short spur to the north west of Newton Abbot included to any degree?
He did a fantastic job on the new BCC timetable so don’t have any concerns about his timetable for this one.
I quite enjoy the early access period without layers as for 5 days the game actually loads quickly as opposed to taking 5 minutes to boot up.
They commented on Facebook the other day saying a Voyager layer will be added as part of the next update.
Like them all but TSW4 was my favourite. They’ve obviously quickly done away with the music in scenarios, but the music when you got the Scotsman...
Hadn’t realised there were going to be playable 08 and steam shunting services, that’s great news.
Just watching the preview stream and much prefer this UI colour scheme to TSW5. Think 4 is still the high water mark however.
I know the 20 we’re getting in the Cargo Line 5 nuclear isn’t period appropriate for Heysham runs but I do wonder if since a period appropriate 20...
I think it’s pretty rare. I’ve driven a service on WCMLS using the 378 but can’t recall ever seeing one as AI.
Worth noting that in real life there is now an hourly service from Leven that goes via Dunfermline rather than Kirkcaldy, hoping this might be...
That would be amazing, especially if the Golant freight branch was included.
Very excited about the Deepdale branch being included, it’s a fascinating little section. Had a mate in high school whose house backed into the...
Looking superb! Hope they’ve done a good job at modelling the Alexandra Stadium…
There’s some interesting freight workings around that section too from Burngallow, Golant, Par etc.
There was some video footage in the direct last night and it looked nice. The interior entrance to Crewe station looked spot on.
Looks very nice.
Those shots look so much better than the washed out footage in the Direct.
It’s nowhere near as long - right now on a Pendo it’s about 45 minutes from Preston to Crewe so presume only slightly more in the 80s. Presume...
In fairness the little gameplay snippet looked gorgeous. Fingers crossed it drops in TSW6.
Wonder if the APT will be a mastery layer?
Deluxe for me, pretty excited for everything announced to be honest. Not sure how people think Riviera wasn’t frequently requested?!
The layers mentioned in the FAQ sound excellent, including AI steam (and playable shunting) at the two heritage lines which are on the route. Some...
We already know JT members were involved in Riviera from that Totnes asset.
Love how we’ll now have Crewe in three different eras!
Wonder if Fiddlers Ferry is included?
Genuine question around the Riviera line as I don’t have an awful lot of knowledge around it - would it have an interesting timetable?
Enjoying it so far, only problem I’m having is blurry textures but that’s a core issue. Always enjoyed the route and it’s finally getting close to...
In fairness to the original timetable, it used everything it could at the point it released, just a lot more Scotrail came along subsequently.
The (remastered) Cathcart timetable and the 158 timetable for Edinburgh-Glasgow basically use all the Scotrail layers. Fife Circle doesn’t for...
Would love a modern timetable for Shap.
Is the new timetable separate?
Sounds like exactly what BCC needed and sounds very positive that Rivet have got a timetable guy in. Unless the preview stream looks concerning...
Preview stream confirmed for Thursday. Presumably not far off.
At least it still exists I guess…
Seem to remember when the Pendo came out that DTG said Avanti had wanted only the refurbished units represented in the game, so wouldn’t hold out...
Historically Xbox have sometimes had a post Ultimate Sale week where a bunch of DLC for titles featured in the main sale get discounted. This is...
Worth bearing in mind that we don’t know if Crewe is the terminus - could easily be a mid point.
Apologies if this has been mentioned before but noticed a slight issue at Barrow Upon Soar station.
I’m hoping the 170 pack for BCC will launch with a fix for this as it’s absolutely ridiculous.
Carlisle poll tax riots? :D
