Well, I ended up buying Fife Circle in a sale just to see for myself. And, you know what? It's not bad overall. Sure there are scenery deficits,...
Oh dear, where does one begin? US railroads have a long history of working with DTG and its partners. If what you say is true, how do you explain...
Check all the boxes that show a train. Seriously though, am I the only one who thinks that the mods should delete artificially generated posts?...
That might be a valid option if you know which routes are in the TSW5 pipeline and you want them all. But, as stujoy advises, best to wait 24...
Oh, agree absolutely. Been saying that for years. Of course it was the flagship, the first route and DTG clearly wanted to kick start the...
Even if DTG/Steam use the official exchange rate ( currently €1 = $1.10 ), which they usually don't, it would be major league sticker shock for US...
What on earth is the purpose of this thread? We have one short 80 mile section of the ECML. We are years away from seeing any completion of the...
I started with a Commodore 64 back in the early 80's. Cost me $599 as I recall, a small fortune for me in those days. But I didn't use it...
There's always a lot of wishful thinking when new routes are anticipated. Just remember that routes are generally shortish with one new train. Any...
My understanding is that Gamescom doesn't begin until 8/21 anyway. Regardless I'm not that much of a gamer either so will watch the DTG Direct...
Duplicating 2 existing threads, including the official one.
Would be interesting to know why there are no American locos in the list. Plenty from Germany and the UK. Can't think of any logical reason and...
Yes, literally makes me avert my eyes from the screen momentarily when emerging from a tunnel. This " feature " really needs some work....
Buzz, buzz. Right Away, driver! (MSTS )
How childish! Even my 7th grade classes weren't this infantile. Bathroom humor should be banned from the forum and anyone who posts it should get...
There might be some news about this on 8/20. Let's hope so because it's been forever since it was announced. Maybe they could have just taken...
To me, this suspension thing is like the eye adaptation feature. Some bright spark in Chatham decided - Oh, look at this, let's do it 'cause we...
Yes, right now it seems that the low hanging fruit is the only thing DTG wants to pick. We'll see if this policy has changed in a couple of...
It's the latest release. It would be a real worry if it were not the top seller among all dlc's.
Fair enough. And, as I said, I genuinely hope this loco sells well for TSG. Making it is to their credit.
I think you may have missed the irony or tongue-in-cheek element in Old Abe's quip.
I see this more in the way of an experiment, raising the flag to see how many players salute. If it meets DTG and TSG's sales threshold we may see...
" not ready to share this just yet " ; " we'll tell you more when we get closer to release " . Trouble is, if you eliminate all the PR and buzz...
I always watch it later so that I can skip over the boring sections and/or replay parts I didn't understand. I also have a gizmo on my tablet...
" It's not me who can't keep a secret. It's the people I tell that can't. " -- Abraham Lincoln.
Well, the 3rd party routes are listed individually on the Roadmap, so perhaps they should have used a word like " upcoming " instead of " new " to...
" including the 6 new routes that were added " -DTG. Can this really be true? There have never been that many new routes announced at one time...
Do you think DTG should be nationalized...? :D
Yes, we US fans are so used to getting the short end of the stick, it's no surprise anymore. It's clearer than ever that DTG couldn't give a fig...
Such nonsense. Many of us, perhaps most PC players have both games and play them alternately, sometimes on the same day. The market is virtually...
Not to us existing players maybe, but it matters in terms of marketing to potential new players in a competitive market where catchy titles seem...
Well, I don't know about the British, but about 16% of Americans have German ancestry. I'm sure most of them know where Germany is, including my...
I probably won't buy this anyway, given the price and the time needed to deal with the complexity. But the language issue puts the kibosh on any...
Given the prevalence of artificial intelligence in the game and now on the forum, I think it should be called TSW2001: A Train Odyssey
I wouldn't expect any expert-style UK or US locomotives in the foreseeable future. I don't even see any " standard " locos on the road map. Of...
At the risk of repeating myself, I thought we were already getting the features that are mentioned in the expert 101 article, detailed modeling,...
The implication being that there is no-one at DTG itself that has the skill set to build these " expert locomotives ". So we cannot expect this...
Tell me, is there any developer, policy, project or dlc, no matter how poor, indifferent or expensive or otherwise flawed that you wouldn't defend...
I can't help feeling a sense of irony about this thread. The discussion is about a German locomotive. There hasn't been a discussion about an...
As a general question, what do we think about a thread that is initiated or generated by artificial intelligence, if indeed that is the case here....
I quite enjoyed that series in HSC. But TSC is very different in that it is scenario- based whereas TSW is timetable-based. I don't have any...
DTG's best work is very good, but you have to go all the way back to SPG, NTP, TVL and BPE to find it. And they've only put out two routes this...
This is exactly my thinking too. In the seemingly unlikely event that a desirable American route comes with TSW5 or whatever it's called, I might...
Yes, why is each paragraph cut off mid sentence or mid word? And the whole post is " written " in a very formal ( not to say formatted ) style.
To me, this thread/poll whatever it is, just demonstrates once again that the Mods were right to ban polls last year and very wrong to allow them...
Silly poll. Doesn't even mention what exactly we are or aren't purchasing. There's no collective action in the player community, everyone makes...
Bring on the sinking cars, floating trucks and flying school buses at 1am. :D
Yes, a very fair and balanced review. I stopped playing AVL largely because of the scenery issues you mention. Plus single track commuter and...
Yes, I was talking about contracted 3rd parties. At this point in time, no-one in their right mind would suggest a " workshop " type environment...
Most of the content in TSC, particularly the older routes and trains, has been and is currently being produced by 3rd parties. It seems that DTG...
