I think Adam explained it fairly well with Sam on the stream yesterday. In addition to the Preserved Collection team, the main core team is also...
....yea...about that. Dovetail has generally avoided that in their routes/scenarios because #reasons. There are some third party routes that...
The Welsh Marches line is available for purchase....
Exactly. And that's the point. Let's be positive. Advocate FOR your interests and routes, not AGAINST others'.
And I don't know anyone would enjoy shunting freight all over a yard. And the rest of the world has no idea why any of us would actually sit in...
If you're into that route, it does exist for TS20xx and is quite cheap through many non-steam sources. It's not the prettiest route, but it is...
"For some reason". Yes, I'm sure you have absolutely no idea why people like to go fast and drive on famous main routes that they grew up riding...
Definitely. IMO the Sheerness branch extension is the best part of the entire route in TS20xx. That said, personally I am not anticipating it.
Eh, not an UE4 issue. It's a DTG choice to not have announcements etc. They avoided doing them in TS20xx as well despite them being very easy to...
Given Matt's statements in the past that they won't make super long routes like they've occasionally done in the past in TS20xx because...
In its defense...that's their first preview trailer for a game not coming out until late 2021. Let's be reasonable.
Most important thing for me personally with an update to TS's core would be performance on modern hardware and being able to have higher res...
I think this has very little to do with the roadmap itself as a way of setting expectations and informing the community of what's being worked on...
A big surge at launch and then numbers settling to a much lower level is pretty normal, especially for something niche like this. You're going to...
I've been openly critical of a lot of what DTG is and has done, but this is, IMO, very unfair. We can complain about quality control issues,...
The original TS route came with both the Island Line AND the old tourist Steam railway.
I spend 90% of my train simming time in TS. However I do like TSW and welcome the overall move to a more modern engine, especially one with a...
No other choice I guess, but at the same time, it's always going to be a bit of a rallying cry for the TS PC crowd. I love TS, and like TSW. I...
Which is fine! I'm a PC gamer and don't play it on consoles, but if DTG wants to make a console first train sim...cool! Go for it. Just be...
Honest question, then why not just remove the XC the route and create it as a new product on Steam? Am I missing how hard that would be?
I read what Jamie says and can't help but wonder. Does he mean it's not the end because they're just going to keep releasing new routes? Or...
Ok Sam, No point in rehashing the old arguments about the editor then. It's not coming. Fine. In my opinion that's suicide for the game on PC,...
I am trying to imagine the look on Sam's face as he returned to the forums after holiday today and saw them devolve into a scene from Lord of the...
True. It features in a lot of freeware requirements. Not its fault that the two cities it links are far more exciting than the super straight...
I am still curious as to your answer to the question, "Why?". Why dump resources in trying to modernize an old semi-broken engine vs. implement a...
I despise this comparison, I'm sorry. SCS and their ETS2 cannot be compared to TS. ETS2 and ATS are orders of magnitude more popular, more...
Indeed. But old habits die hard. LOL.
I have to disagree a bit. The issue I have with upgrading the current TS engine to 2020 standards is...is the time and investment worth it vs...
Of course. However a flop doesn't mean it's bad. It means it's not commercially successful. Go look at the Steam player numbers and tell me...
All good information here. Personally I built up a really nice collection of routes simply by purchasing every edition from TS2014 onwards, often...
Dominating the market isn't really what matters here when the market is sooo small for train sims. If DTG want to grow they need to continue to...
Yea, DTG QA is fine. There's little doubt they notice and report the bugs. DTG just makes a conscious decision to launch and fix it (or not)...
Ok sure, maybe the livery editor is pointless on PC...but this isn't a PC first game. It's a console game that also runs on PC (regardless of...
I don't know if I agree with this. DTG are able to dedicate a very small dev team to TS and still likely bring in easy money if Steam player...
They do. They have a QA team that goes through this stuff. Whether or not the powers that be decide to do something about the problems brought...
That's not how I understand it. I read it as, they need to give the xbox/ps4 marketplaces significant advance notice if they want a discount...
I also don't think docking DTG for not including the Northampton loops is fair as it was never, at any point promised or alluded to.
All good points. I don't think there are many folks that will buy an AP enhancement that don't already know at least how to swap a train in a...
I think you're reading what they're saying, but not fully understanding it.
Summary of the discount questions: Upset Console Players: "Why don't we get a launch/preorder discount?" DTG: "Because XBone/PS4 tightly...
Bloom exists, like lens flare and fake chromatic aberration to simulate the look of a scene being recorded by a camera. I always thought this was...

Got it! http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/train-simulator-2020-tsw_252726#6/51.000/2.000 It was literally one post above this one in the...
I'll go scroll through 8 pages of that cluster**** and see if it's there. EDIT: Nope, not there.
No, the one I'm thinking was similar in how the Google Map looked, but it had all routes in UK, EU, and US, and they were color coded, and it was...
At some point I could have sworn someone (I think a German?) shared a link to a Google Map that had all the real routes from DTG, Payware, and the...
