Welcome. As you have probably realized already the community, generally, is a little unsettled at present and have identified many problems they...
I’m not overly impressed by the auto scrolling for ‘new releases’ and ‘most popular’. If nothing else they seem to be scrolling rather rapidly...
I own Portsmouth Direct and there’s been previous comment that there will be a discount for existing users. On that basis, if it has had...
JJTimothy yes that’s true and I’m sure there are lots of examples in other places. One other thing to think about when a new ‘country’ is modeled...
Despite all of the criticism of TS and DTG it’s amazing just how much interest there is in new routes. It’s true that there’s a bias in the routes...
I see what you are saying. Actually if it’s ‘brand new’ the suggestion is that it’s more than something with changes. If it’s ‘brand new to Steam’...
It may be cheaper in the UK through JT but for me, outside the UK the reverse is true On Steam yesterday I paid with the discount COP43,600 which...
Yes, it’s the JT package. On pricing (at least in my country) it’s cheaper on Steam even than the current JT sale price on the item. First...
Ok so I bought this today and it looks like good value. One small inconsistency on Steam there’s no link from the product page to the...
I’m accused from time to time of being a ‘fan boy’ for DTG or ‘ not getting it’. Funnily enough I think this is the most egregious of all of the...
Glassdoor is always an interesting insight to companies although single reviews can sometimes be rather biased - many are posted as people head...
Good post ProfCreeptonius but is it that simple? I don’t know the size of the team at DTG working in this but let’s say with Devs, PM, Marketing,...
On the editor - whether or not it's on the way, think about the problem from these angles - I'm pretty sure that DTG, to get revenue, want you to...
chelmo unfortunately it’s difficult not to agree with you. They bought legacy products and then tried to build 64 bit replacements. The business...
I’m not sure that it’s the provision of an editor that gets this moving. Yes, that would attract across some of the more hardcore simmers but what...
My guess that any separated and simplified editor - as it likely won’t be console available (and therefore not part of a ‘unified’ game) would be...
heyitspopcorn good post. On your questions my thoughts are - TSW to me does look increasingly as if it’s focused towards the console ‘game’...
@digitaldraftsman I think that DTG have suggested that this is going to be one game on PC and multiple console platforms. What I wonder - I don’t...
Juxen yes, you are probably right but perversely that might explain the TSW Console focus. As globally (with some using both) PC and Console...
Why do you say that Kestrel? In the past month I’ve spent around $200 at AP and $80 on Just Trains and maybe $20 at DTG. That’s a far better...
Juxen I agree 100% that this is very much a niche product, though if TSW is going ‘Console game’ that may be less true. I know that most of the...
No Kestrel you don’t get it. 1. The concept that there are two different development paths, one for PC and one for consoles isn’t going to...
Pschlik if they had juust made an announcement on the console section wouldn’t there have still been issues? PC users would probably have seen the...
Digital Draftsman on the bundling hasn’t that always been a strategy by DTG to get new users into the platform or buy new DLC. Take the German...
Digital Draftsman I know that emotions are running high (sometimes I have to remind myself that we’re talking about a PC/Console game when I read...
I agree with you Hightower. I think existing TS2018 users saw TSW as a replacement (not an unreasonable assumption) whereas it’s a significantly...
From DTGs point of view (if this is the announcement) adding a new console platform IS a big deal for them in terms of commercial opportunities....
Yes, nothing hit my wish list either. Having said that with APs sale last week quite a lot of ‘hobby’ money might have already been spent by the...
I can see over 30 items on sale on Steam. You are pressing the down arrow next to the first 3 items to see all of the rest of the available DLC...
TrainSim-Steve it is good that it is now fixed but the Steam forum went into overdrive with this problem. More than one thread and around 75...
TrainSim-Steve thanks for the answer. On fixing the copy you’ve done it in your post but the article it links to still, at the top, talks about...
Good news although it is an interesting thought about whether there will be any discount for existing owners. Is it even possible to give...
For anyone who has the TS Sacramento Northern route a visit to the Western Railway museum in Suisun California would be a great idea. I was a...
Sunscreen but DTG did answer the question about attending to the forums. TrainSim-Steve said early in the thread that they were looking for a new...
Nothing wrong in complaining, provided you are willing to let others express their opinions. But don’t be rude and don’t insult other forum...
No Axe, it’s just that you have made posting on the Steam forums unpleasant. Those forums aren’t moderated. I’d rather hoped, and I believe others...
I did suggest to Dovetail that letting Axe on the forum (or at least providing some friendly advice about expected behaviour standards) would be...
Hmmm, I think that many of the people on the Steam forum were t surprised when the OPs thread wasn’t answered - and it was posted more than once....
Welcome. As a fairly new member myself I’d suggest TS2018 (as it currently released as) is the legacy 32 bit game. It’s pretty well developed and...
Just to finish this up before finishing with the old defective computer I moved Steam to the same SSD that TS was on. Checked that it was working...
Of course the Stamford line is the only one that could include a bar car in the scenario! Happy days when I used to commute to Rye.
As I used to ride from Bedford Hills every day to GCT i’d Be interested. All the routes are fairly long though and at least for Southeast only...
Excellent answer. I really appreciate your advice. AP is particularly interesting. When you get those unannounced updates from Steam you always...
I'd rather hoped I'd find the response to this on Steam but I'll ask here and see if anyone knows or wants to hazard a guess (it's a variation on...
i guess this would count as ‘content’ and I understand it’s not a route. As a newcomer I’ve a lot to learn and I think any responses to this...
Actually I think this (provided the Steam version is cheaper) is really a good strategy - hard core simmers (the ones who want perfection, the...
Agree with Kuu and Ian. There is a lot of emotion running around on the Steam Forums. Kind of rather like a pitch invasion I'm not surprised we...
I’d guess that the most likely reason for the demise of FSW is the general performance results of DTG. DTG have at least one investor, Alcuin...
Thanks, to give some railway perspective over my life these have been stations involved in my life.. UK Hartlepool, Toller, Maiden Newton, St....
Early retired and living just outside Medellin. Interested in particular in UK content. Got off to a flyer with buying content in the recent sale....
