Pure speculation but not a random guess based on nothing and certainly not fantasy. There’s no source for it other than me though, and others have...
Safety standards mainly. Fire safety and crash worthiness standards.
Community Update The three people most likely to step in and say that there is no intention of DTG stopping gen 8 development of TSW have all...
NTP and the Heavy Freight pack are the best bet for UK diesels and giving them a good old thrash over the hills. You get three big diesels, the 08...
DTG do look at the suggestions. Reacting to them might be difficult though, it would be time consuming and a little pointless. They want to know...
I am very impressed by the detail they have put into the train. It all looks rather good from the stream last night. I’m not sure I like the...
Grow up everyone, especially the old people who should know better. [edit by Protagonist - you're better than that]
They haven’t.
Everybody who says they don’t get the ‘gen 8 is holding us back’ thing are also ignoring the other factors. Continuing development of gen 8 is...
This is good to hear. It’s also nice to hear that I’ve been driving it fairly correctly with my cut off settings. I’ll probably keep the firing on...
This absolute minimum price this could be is the price of a loco DLC. That big shiny blue thing is a new train, you don’t get that for free. All...
That would be as standard!
I think the major issue people have with the Class 31 is that the brakes are usually set to goods timing as the default. I use the loco a lot on...
It’s almost as if someone at DTG saw that exact video somewhere and said “make that” quickly followed by “not you” to the pacer.
I don’t know the last time DTG publicly stated their commitment to gen 8 consoles but if it was before a decision to stop developing for them was...
You are quite correct. Many people on the day they got their PS5 were calling for the end of PS4 development and I wasn’t having that. I believe I...
Hehe, I’m not saying. Basically because if it isn’t a hint I’ll have made a big fool of myself. More than I do normally!
alrighty, back to a serious discussion point that does not refer to fishes… One thing I may have mentioned here and over on the PS section on the...
I can’t actually remember what the wording of the ad was but I seem to remember it was either across all titles or specifically for trains. I saw...
DTG did advertise for the role of an engineer a while back specifically to implement multiplayer so it is safe to say it is or at least was in...
The dynamic brakes are broken on this train and have been for a long time. Above about 28 mph the braking force should drop off but before that,...
I periodically check on the PS store to see if it is on sale as I wouldn’t buy it at full price. So far, I’ve never seen it on sale. The only...
DTG are confirmed by Epic to be developing on UE5. I don’t see how you can be so confident that they aren’t with that already publicly known.
I think people also need to stop pretending they are impossible to get. That’s not true. It being difficult to buy a new console also isn’t a...
Somebody said on the forum that Rivet had messed up because the train sounded like a diesel. There is a diesel engine sound in the background,...
Yep, that’s just us taking one piece of information and running with all manner of potential possibilities. Once the official news is out we can...
They are, and of course there are conflicting reports of whether or not it’s going to get easier to get them this year. There’s still a big...
Are you sure you’re not just misinterpreting whatever data you have seen? DTG Protagonist has the actual figures in front of him, that’s been a...
He can run faster than anyone at DTG, they’ll never catch him.
True. It’s all speculation and there will be as many arguments for not changing to UE5 as there are for changing. It’s all a good thought exercise...
As for gen 8 being toast for TSW, well the writing is on the wall for that already, it’s just a matter of the timing. This August or September is...
Job swap. Boris for DTG community director? Then we will never get the truth on streams. I’d been thinking that TSW3 as a new game might be on...
Yes, I bought the original on release too. I’m not too bothered about it because it was a while ago now. Someone could have just bought the...
I bet you were very thankful for those pants. It could have been worse.
They can’t extend the track because the route is only that long in real life. Normal loco DLC for other routes is only a couple of Euros cheaper...
The whole idea is to not match it to the livery on the Island Line, as that would be copyright infringement and especially risky to do after...
I just remember that at the time of the original release the was quite a bit of talk on the forum that it should have been the new train (not even...
No, but my point was that if you keep trying to do those broken services you will get nowhere until they are fixed. You said the DLC was...
I hope the free upgrade to the original route fixes the magical appearing station. “Ping, there it is” said a relieved driver. It’s a bit strange...
When new ideas come along new things can be developed so it’s not totally out of the question that configurable track has been made possible. It...
You volunteering to collate and update that? Well done sir.
When people (quite a few people) suggested the 484 for IoW everybody in the know on the forum said “Don’t be silly, that would need a route...
And not forgetting that Spirit of Steam is WCML, so there’s one of the biggest ticked off the list.
There appears to be a bit of discussion again elsewhere on the forum as to the exact reasons why TSW does not have a public editor. Can you...
If you are trying to play through the Journey chapters and you reach a service that can’t be finished, go into the menu and move to the next...
They should have fixed that ‘defaulting to yes’ pop-up a long time ago. It has long boggled my mind as to why they designed it that way in the...
The small HUD option is now the size of the old large HUD. It may always have been big but now it is bigger since the core update that accompanied...
Why is the HUD massive now? Was it a design choice or an error?
Now that the jackhammer sound issue has been sorted on xbox can the badly looping sounds on Playstation be looked at? There have been many...
I’d like to know why I can’t see all of my train behind me on Sherman Hill on PS5. Why does it take so much processing power to render the distant...
