Yes I'm already kind of done with the TSW5 release. The core update is free as it should be because there's nothing in it as far as I can see...
" The gentleman doth protest too much, methinks. " ( apologies to WS ) No-one is telling you what or what not to buy, just stating their...
I haven't pre-ordered any version yet, was on that side of the fence that saw nothing particularly exciting in the preview material. Still too...
The irony here doesn't escape those of us who have gone through the saga that is New York- Trenton. What should have been a standout, flagship...
Not a real answer though is it. I mean we already knew that nothing would be done with the save feature for this iteration of TSW. Actually rather...
Oh, don't worry, no chance of that!! I hope you meant to be ironic.
Including Cajon in the deluxe package is superfluous for most of us since we already have it and it somewhat devalues the package. Maybe an extra...
I think DTG made it very clear some time ago that there is no " active development " happening with steam traction. You can assume that includes...
Here's a pretty silly thread for a slow morning when a storm has closed most things down around here. If you were cast away on a desert island,...
It's becoming annoying. Would you guys please spell Brandon's name correctly?
Not worth doing unless they have SEPTA and MARC licenses.
The saga of NYT is a comedy of errors. First it was launched before it was ready for prime time with a laughable timetable, AI issues, platform...
Problem is that you'll end up adding the 390 etc., and giving them just about the same amount of money. They've been very clever about all the...
Good luck! You might meet some folks along the way, there are pedestrians in SPG. I've taken some short walks myself along the route here and there.
Yes. Sam once said something along the lines of the average playtime in TSW was around 20-30 minutes.
That would require DTG to build a dual mode loco and Amfleet cars which they have shown no indication of doing. You can almost understand the...
Do you really think that DTG is going to produce this kind of pie- in- the- sky nonsense for TSW? I know you love to type, but I think you might...
If you want to see regional bias, look at the TSW choices in the US. It's all about the east and west coasts, ignoring the vast rail network in...
I would really like to hear about some actual experiences with this " feature ", because I share OldVern's opinion that this is largely a gimmick...
Yes, this is certainly true of the Metra locos, F40, 59 MP36 and SD70 when standing at stations.
You can see it that way. But the cynic in me thinks that a lot of people who already own Cajon Pass will buy the deluxe package, thinking...
Yes. To me, this " hopping " feature ranks along with the eye- adaptation, bouncy suspension, snow bloom, volumetric fog and other features which...
Well, it might be useful for those that have unlimited play time, but I doubt if I'll use it much since I barely have time to finish one run never...
TSW4 itself suffered from a failure to completely launch. The only redeeming elements were JT's Blackpool Branches and LIRR2 which were post-...
The silence concerning the save game feature is certainly enigmatic on the part of DTG to say the least. Is it still being worked on? Is it not...
For me the interesting aspects of the route are not so much the commuter running, but rather the traffic congestion between South, Back Bay and...
Yes, DTG has utterly failed to maintain the promise of SPG, CRR and other early freight routes. I only half-believe the excuses about access....
That'll be fine with me too ...!
The Boston -Worcester route is really the only thing I'm looking forward to. I do have a passing interest in the GWE remaster because it's one of...
Joethefish says yes!
Oh boy, Joethefish, 3000 miles away and you know how to make my day. Thanks for the info. Something to look forward to.
Take the soccer chat to off topic please. ;)
Deselecting routes is easy for Steam dwellers. You can just untick and retick as you wish. Problem is the lack of a comprehensive layer and sub...
Military is good. Pity it's not the S & D with a Q1 and Spitfires engaging Messerschmitt Bf 109s overhead. ;)
Oh my !! A short commuter route with 1 or 2 one handle emus. How fresh and innovative!! :D
Would like to add my voice to this. Don't know why we can't get a response after a year or more of asking.
Yes, you are by no means alone in your frustration. The only dedicated US freight content that's been confirmed will come from High Iron...
Many thanks.
Can we at least assume that the tracks between South and Back Bay will be populated with Acela and other MBTA commuter trains.
Without CSX freight, what will the old Beacon Yard look like, empty with a single track for commuter trains. And without the Lake Shore Limited...
Yes, if the Worcester line had been in this launch instead of SB, my annoyance might have been somewhat assuaged. As it is I'm not sure how DTG...
Hm. Then how do you account for the plethora of US routes and locos that DTG and its partners built between 2017 and 2022/3?
" Congrats Dovetail. You absolutely nailed it. " Unless you're a fan of US rail of course. We haven't received an invitation to the party.
Exactly what value does the inclusion of Cajon Pass bring to US fans buying the deluxe edition for $75, as most of us probably already own the...
Well I voted no of course. I mean how is a US player supposed to feel. I can't think of any reason to spend money on this mostly empty offering....
It's just........awful! A route we've known about for a year plus a TSW3 route we've been playing for almost 2 years. And not a single new loco....
I do have one question. Does the mention of Raildriver support mean a change in status?
Trying to pick through all the information, but, as of now, see nothing of any substance for US fans. This was kind of expected I guess. Not...
Arguably, the only thing we gained from buying TSW4 was the ability to play Blackpool Branches. The 3 core routes were not compelling in my view...
Well, the day has dawned! Not here in the US of course. It's just dinner time. But somewhere in the world it's August 20th. The coaster has...
