TSW is not a failure and despite my sometimes vocal criticism I wouldn’t also have invested in the PS5 version alongside the PC. It looks...
I suspect the guillotine would have been fetched out for that one... "It is a far, far better thing etc."
Not to mention ongoing doubts as to whether they could get Eurostar licensing.
Yes the Class 31's were used on the Bristol to Pompey services when they went over to loco hauled, from an assorted collection of Class 120, Class...
Great call, Class 205 doubtless the centrepiece with a rejigged Class 33. If memory serves me correctly most of the Canton based Mark One 5 coach...
Technically DTG were only distributing FSX after making some changes for Steam compatibility. The code base remains what the flight sim division...
The big problem is that Steam doesn’t allow neutral or percentage ratings. You have to declare whether it is good or bad with no in between. You...
If you like Electrostars, definitely yes as they form 99.9% of the driveable services on the route. Main appeal is the timetable which really...
He was with the company from Kuju days IIRC. Great guy, helped sort out several issues with a couple of my freeware routes.
I sincerely doubt Focus will want to spend time and resources on anything core for TSW2, in the same way that N3V fairly brutally exploit their...
So far as we know, no. This takeover has obviously been in the works for months and the update was announced only recently. In fact on the...
Expanding out a little and touching on something I mentioned just now in another thread… With the increasing saturation of samealike routes in...
If you include all the stuff I own in TSC then it already is saturated. Even routes like West Highland or Kyle which, 20 years ago we would have...
The only slight bug I've found, is that departing from Ueno on a fast run, the "echo" sound of being under the station roof seemed to cling to the...
Not really. Uncomfortable (the A60 had high backed seating for the longer journeys) and the older stock sounded better!
One other item which just occurred to me (fairly mindlessly walking round Vault 88 scrapping everything in sight) what slant will Focus take on...
Without access to confidential contracts hard to say. Probably business as usual though hopefully a kick up the posterior for the under...
I suspect we are still probably reading too much into a French owned corporate enterprise taking over Dovetail will automatically lead to a glut...
Not strictly true. Between New Street and Bromsgrove you should have the WMR diesel operated trains to and from the Worcester area and a half...
The only out of course events I've encountered is where it's scripted in (which means not really random) to specific scenarios. A few on the...
Again only if they feel there is a demand. In some ways LGV was a proof of concept for high speed and, while as I said I would love to see more...
And that is the point at which the game(s) and I would part company. N3V offer this with Trainz as an alternative to buying the game outright plus...
It’s Planet Coaster on rails… :) Also good for a quick blast. However as I mentioned earlier it would be great to see a SNCF classic route, maybe...
As I just said in the concurrent TSC thread, they will continue to make routes that bring in the most money, versus the costs, licensing and...
They will indeed carry on targeting the markets they see as offering the best revenue source vs. access for research and licencing plus costs.
DTG seem to be chasing the wow it's a Electrostar/Javelin/800 crowd FTFY... :) :) :)
Well I will be grabbing LGV for the PS5 (already got PC version) and the other routes for TSC. A shame DTG never made any classic SNCF routes,...
Actually playing the TSC version you get the same experience, apart from New Street which has most of the platforms filled up with (AI?) 350's....
I’m currently playing my PS5 version of TSW and it remains very impressive. So that is something TSW has over TSC, even if we can’t drive steam...
I hope it does Matt, as I posted above TSW potentially has many benefits over TSC. However there can be little doubt that TSW quality has taken a...
Oh at heart I hope so too, but they need to get TSW back to its halcyon days when titles like NTP or the classic diesel releases were Day One...
Almost inevitable there will be a reshuffle and re tasking even if no one goes “down the road” just like a Government cabinet reshuffle!
Definitely but A60, D and C stock era not S stock please.
Abstract from what I just posted in the TSC forum… Kind of interesting this coincides with the big core update to TSC. It may be nothing more than...
It is already being discussed at some length in the TSW General board. Interesting times ahead, definitely grabbing the free LGV routes (already...
One other thought, that might be wide of the mark but here goes anyway... Isn't Snowrunner primarily developed by a Russian team? It may be Focus...
As all of us who have tried Run 8 at some point have come to know and love!
Well I bought the TSW French route a while back, but the TSC ones I don't own so will be a welcome acquisition.
Roger that!
Interesting... As a fan of Snowrunner it would be nice to see collaboration between the teams to get that level of graphics into TSC and TSW....
Given in the stream great play was made of the fact this route was local to the author(s) how on earth could Loughborough station get the wrong...
Just when I was almost starting to repent and think about rebuying, the above has convinced me to hang on to my money. The whole thing is just...
Agree. Let's get what's there (or in the case of the timetable, not) sorted first and make it an appealing prospect to purchase before adding new...
Glad I paid £24.99 a few days ago. It’s a nice route but £35 (presumably in GBP), I think not. Of course the DW Alco’s are an eye watering price...
Thanks for responding Jane. My comments were somewhat tongue in cheek but I do think a working power station would have added greatly to the...
Completely off topic but I would love to see a single track route, preferably Scotland, in TSW with the tech expanded to replicate physical token...
Absolutely, I want to see all the promises aren’t just more spin doctoring in the same way as Rivet (lurching Arosa loco, 1938 stock silent when...
