If the 47 sells, they could reasonably do another single loco railtour like the 55, or redo the 40 or 45. They seem like a very small developer...
There's no Chinese trains in the game so it can never be a train simulator without Chinese trains. Therefore it's always been a complete flop...
That is Crosstie's point but more succinctly yes.
Well compared to TSW 4 that has 80,000 copies... in twice the time it's been out. Nearly identical ratings at 76% too. I'd say it's about the...
Making up less than 10% of the total freight jobs?
1. It is about how the game looks. It's an image on a screen. 2. Using words like "should" is showing your opinion, not an objective statement....
It'd be up to the person to know whether they had enough space to download the full thing =-)
Jetwash- I'd agree. The only legacy route I regularly play is SPG and that's because it was ahead of it's time but it's not "better" than many...
I think DTG missed the mark by not having a team just build the whole WCML from London to Glasgow. As pieces were done, they'd ship that and keep...
Sand Patch came when that was about all there was and they spent years developing it. Comparing it to dozens of routes done in much less time...
Consider what sells and what the majority of the audience wants. That's your answer. And to be fair on DTG's side.. you have 90% of the modern...
How do you power anything with salt? (Not making fun of you, just pointing out your analogy is appropriate. Salt doesn't add much but flavor to food)
Short answer? People are looking for "high quality on the cheap." The same people demanding a lot more are rarely willing to pay for it. It's...
[MEDIA]
Did they claim they were updated? Are you going to apply that standard to every other layer that isn't exactly correct in your opinion? That's...
Which OP? The one crying that DTG is bankrupt and doomed, or the one making fun of that guy? Realistically neither is the actual "OP" they were...
Wait to see how Thomas is received. Nothing will happen before they see how that sells.
Yeah, that kinda defeats the whole purpose of a long stretch for high speed rail if you have to stop half way.
By those standards most TSW content would be "false advertising" so you'd have a helluva lawsuit and you wouldn't have bought virtually anything...
So to be clear would this be an extension to the existing WCMLS line? For say perhaps 30 pounds more? Or 60 pounds new for the whole thing? (I...
It will only get worse the more content you have to support. If you have to stock car parts for every model in the past 50 years, that's a lot of...
That's fair. I go between a lot of different games. They're all different. More sims coming out for console should help TSW find a "niche" better....
Showing there was a demand would be that "market research" for them. So far they seem to only use sales and their annual questionnaire. Neither...
But that makes no sense if there's a number of other routes they could play. Why would they choose that ONE to play if they didn't like it and had...
Easy. You said that was the "only route they had" and there's only ONE pack that it is the "only route" on it... the UK regional pack. Which...
DTG has said there's no stomach for most people paying that much or more for longer routes. Proving that wrong would be the hurdle to get over....
Nothing is stopping them extending it every 50 miles or so. They have that "route hopping" so they'd just say "hop to the next one at the next...
If a route is working for most people but not a few, then it's often issues with the specific machine and programs/settings on that machine. Are...
I was replying on that to Disintegration who said "They really made a mess of WCMLS and it's sapped all the momentum from TSW5 imo. I'm spending...
Which one? They're discussing 3 different locos at the moment. Although to be fair, the 47 has ALWAYS been almost as prevalent in game as the 66....
There are issues with TSW, always have been. It's often been very specific to systems and conditions however. Perhaps more focus on that would...
Now continue that thought..... If they didn't like it what would they do? Play it... or not play it? If they're new to TSW they'd probably just...
It doesn't take a game dev to continue to make what they were making before. It's the question of is there enough demand to justify new...
"BUT I WANT IT!" Everything that isn't what I "want" is a "conspiracy."
PFR is a great route. In my opinion (yes I said opinion, relax) it's the prettiest route in the game. SOS is also nice, but can't hold a candle in...
Isn't it the 2nd most driven route in TSW 5 per the roadmap? [IMG] Someone must not think it's that bad.
The game would be free, but they're not offering it. They're only bundling it with routes. They will probably offer it again this year. Point is,...
Skyhook is making those freight packs. DTG isn't making them. Would TSG or someone else from Germany make them? Seems like great "low hanging...
I think it's a play through. You go into a route, play then when leaving the route it's over. I'm thinking it's a typo. It's an easy mistake...
Some German diesel would be nice yes.
To be fair, Mitten is something we've basically seen before too.... is it not similar to the Semmeringbahn or Voralberg? I mean they're not...
The base game is honestly free already for TSW 5. (Hence the "free core module" that came out. You are just buying the bundle of routes that goes...
[IMG] That's 13,000 km per game session per person. Now I know I only play for maybe an hour in my game sessions.... but I'm pretty sure 13,000 km...
Is the switching "automatic" in that it just adapts to whatever is on the tracks? I think it is because if you "delete" a train the signal often...
That can be a problem since there's a lot of them, just like the 47s. Although the 47s in particular seem to have different horns? Do they have...
Two thigs remain true despite the oddly personal accusations and infighting. 1) Adding locos to a pack (even "old ones") is more value than not...
Most of the issues would be minimized if it was just 4 players max in roles you can already take. Then you don't have to "build" much and it's not...
To be clear, not the worst ones...the BEST ones.
The 47 is not a "repackage." Can't speak for the 40 or 45. If you don't like it... then don't buy it. To be fair, it wasn't initially the 40 or...
Not saying it's necessary, but VR is coming to TSW despite people being harshly against it. However, like most games it's not required. It would...
