My post is largely talking about when they do factor in popularity, and they clearly don't always do that, see Cathcart Circle. There are other...
Really I think even getting to 100 miles would solve most of the length issues, there's tons of good routes that are within that range. Even a...
But they need to make routes that appeal to more than the forum anyways. For example if you know anything about US railroading Sherman Hill and...
On the other hand DTG I believe mentioned their first pick was the Piccadilly line for the underground, and I think that was due to its...
To be fair I think DTG have acknowledged the issues with lighting, the issue isn't that DTG don't know how to talk the talk, it's that they don't...
What about Windows? Or even Linux for that matter. You can develop software for either of them without having to pay them royalties, hell, Linux...
That isn't abusive though when DTG themselves are perfectly fine with that in TS Classic. Fact is DTG are their own worst enemy in that regard...
...What? What system is there for third parties to abuse here? At no point did I make mention of them being able to do so.
You might not, but that doesn't mean that there aren't people who'd hardline against that and would rather publish on their own store to net all...
The big problem with WCML & ECML is that they're long, and I don't think they can be divided into small sections as easily. With ECML I think the...
I would have to imagine that they've got at least one location and loco narrowed down at this point. I think it would be great if we could get...
DTG doesn't need to release content every other week though, most games go for major but infrequent yearly/biannually updates. Less releases can...
It's annoying since this has been a issue since TS Classic, and yet despite the chance to start fresh and not need to go back and redo a million...
I don't think it would be that hard to work out, Promontory Summit and Cheyenne 1869 have a bunch of invisible signals for the purpose of scenario...
Depends on the route, I've seen some German routes do that for sure, but on the other hand there's no such limits enforced on the US routes I've...
A lot of the trains in TS Classic really don't need anything beyond basics though. Unless you're talking about Reppo or Searchlight you really...
You can nitpick the lighting for ETS2 sure, but it's more than good enough where you can pretty comfortably play it at night. In comparison to TSW...
Realistically though if we haven't hit critical mass on routes in five years is it really worth assuming its ever gonna happen at this point?...
Horns are particularly annoying to me, because it's been partially pulled off a few times at this point. In TS Classic all of Smokebox's steam...
You're cherry picking a bit though, for every unique pick like Sand Patch there's a obvious carry over from TS Classic like Great Western Express....
Agree, as much as I like but I find it hard to recommend it seems to be particularly prone to bugging out compared to just about every other route...
There aren't many photos of Clinchfield Challengers with the double stacks, but they did exist with them for at least a short period. [ATTACH]
Already confirmed they're coming, not like much has to be done for them either, really it's just a logo swap on the tender, plus a new number board.
If you're looking for something unique I'd highly recommend the Sacramento Northern, it's a American 30/40's electric interurban railroad. The...
Come to think of it isn't there a achievement for doing 90MPH in the Class 166? Jesus I wonder how difficult that is now?
The problem with this is that it feels incredibly generic, there's nothing about this which really directly ties into TSW2. The Pringles website...
Tell me about it, seems way slower than before, not saying it's inaccurate, honestly wouldn't know that, but it's very jarring coming from...
Even so I feel like the schedule would have a couple of minutes more leeway then it does in the sim. I will say that at least those services do...
Was he the only Kuju employee to come over at the time of the buyout though? Or did others come along initially and left over the years? Keep in...
"Some" From my experience pretty much every timetable was tight, the Class 101 services in particular, but even stuff like the express services...
Except it was, Kuju's just DTG before they rebranded.
I know personally I'd sometimes actually speed through certain parts of NTP 40 MPH over the speed limit just to keep on schedule. Realistically...
I thought TRS2022 only locked the multiplayer Surveyor and a few new features, not the whole mode itself. If that's the case though then that's a...
It always seemed odd that DTG never seemed keen on doing UK routes set during the 30's, back when the big four were still intact. Even if they...
Even nowadays a lot of the area remains undeveloped prairie land, so it's fairly easy to guess how it would've looked like. And I think in the...
I get that the way they do scenarios is annoying, but it seems a bit absolutist to immediately dismiss their ability to get a bug fix patch out in...
I would agree that the track sounds are a fairly minor problem, but just because it is one doesn't mean it's worth ignoring. Audio mixing...
So? they could just as easily choose to abandon this steam route in favor of making more routes instead of expanding this one. Think about it, you...
If DTG are going to aim make routes with room for expansion then they need to actually expand them unlike what they did with Clinchfield. Maybe...
Then you've heard wrong, I do think Xbox or PlayStation do that, but not Steam. I own the original Half Life on steam, which is a game owned by...
Railroads Online's a game about building and servicing industries, as well as co-op multiplayer, those are its priorities. Train simulation is a...
My reasoning is broader, I really don't think people in general are going to take SoS well if freaking Somerset and Dorset has features that a...
Everyone's happy... Except for those who aren't, which is quite a few people in this thread, including me. Considering that even train games like...
You know what else a driver generally doesn't do? Flip switches, couple wagons, load freight cars, or get various collectables, yet these are all...
Would they do as a DLC for this route though? The Black 5 was everywhere, and it could be argued that it would make just as much sense to save it...
DTG had the license till 2019, and I know for fact that remained the case as the MSFS blog even made note of Microsoft getting the licensing back...
MSFS would've been a issue if FSW lasted that long, but Flight Sim World was dead a whole year before MSFS was even publicly announced, it was a...
That shot's from more of a head-on view point, the other shots we've been judging up to this point are from a sideways viewpoint. It's possible...
If that was a factor DTG considered when making a route then why make Sherman Hill or Horseshoe Curve? Neither are original concepts for a train...
My thought is that it looks good certainly, but the real question everyone should be asking is if it will feel good, and honestly I don't think...
