Really looking forward to this one. I'm still doing nightly summoning circles for a Great Western route with a Castle, but this will do nicely in...
Hot take- for me, this is the perfect route length. I very rarely play TSW for longer than an hour. My poor attention span means I could never be...
One thing I'm very excited about (apart from literally everything else about it) is that this is the first route with a defunct privatised...
So excited! God I hope it's good.
Not really, however I don't think it's a problem personally. The HSTs would be on the St Pancras to Nottingham services hourly, however I'm...
I'd definitely say go for it! It's always been my favourite non British route, however I appear to be in the minority with my love for the route....
As promised, here is 45699 GalaBertaLeone. I think it's ridiculous how they've given one engine two different numbers, neither of which actually...
I just saw that today in Gloucester! When I get home I'll be sure to share the photos I took :) FYI, the engine is actually 45699 Galatea...
I honestly feel like it would have aroused less suspicion if he had just let them be! Anyway, I can't wait for "removed- JD- surprise", coming to...
I second that! [removed - JD - surprise] I'd be jumping for joy if this were true. Finally a [removed - JD - surprise],
I'm really fed up of the mastery system. Below are some challenges that I know for a fact I've completed, but mastery is saying otherwise....
I'm using headphones as well and I promise you I can hear them fine even at full speed.
Can you seriously not hear them? Even at speed I have no issues hearing them.
This is something I've always wanted Matt or someone else to elaborate on. Why is it that someone working in their free time can get more done to...
That's a bit dramatic. There are problems with the 385 but it is far from broken. I'm having a lot of fun driving it, and I think it has a lot...
I see people discussing this issue like it's the end of the world. Obviously it needs to be fixed, but there are sooo many other more important...
Perhaps a solution could be to click in to the TMS, and then you could navigate through menus with the D- pad, select what you want and then exit...
I have to disagree with that. I've done two full services and managed to do the full sequence of announcements in the appropriate places, and I'm...
It's undoubtedly fiddly, but I'd still rather have it than not. It's doing wonders for immersion.
Then what the heck was everything you said prior to that? Modern traction isn't soulless, at least for me. I've driven the 101 quite extensively,...
If I had a hot meal for every time I saw someone on these forums saying they were done with TSW3, we could cure world hunger. Bit dramatic no?...
Finally got to play this route today. Overall I really like it, however it definitely has some issues. 1. The running sounds are atrocious. I'm...
This is what keeps me from driving it for now, they should not be able to get to and sustain 90mph with such ease. That kind of performance is...
Absolutely agree with that. I hate crawling along the line with 47s and Westerns, it's like seeing a tiger in a cage. You just wanna unleash it. I...
I feel like the only person who really enjoys LGV. It's definitely my favourite non UK route (although once Boston Sprinter gets it's signalling...
Does it really matter? I see plenty of discussions about things to do with TSW in off topic. If a moderator wants me to move it I will.
Important- This is NOT due to a lack of quality, or bugs etc. I'm talking about any route or loco you bought but simply didn't enjoy for reasons...
This is taken from my previous comment on the matter earlier in the thread: Regarding the apparent lack of demand for BR Blue despite many on the...
Completely agree. I'm still mystified why there hasn't been a second route with the HST. Probably the most iconic train in the UK, and in all of...
I seriously doubt it. That's the sort of performance expected of the Stanier Pacifics. They shouldn't struggle on gradients though. The Jubilees...
A Scot is what we should have got in the first place for that route. I still fail to understand why they went with the Jubilee. I think a more...
If I had a penny for every time I heard that phrase on these forums... Despite my pfp, modern traction is why I play TSW. It's as simple as that....
Matt's driving is always painful to watch, but especially so last night! I genuinely think they need to get someone else to drive for these...
It's amazing how the general opinion on this route within the community appears to have shifted. When it was first announced and the first...
Regarding the trend of TSW doing routes with major stations with hardly any trains in them, yeah it's a shame but in my opinion it's absolutely...
Oh I'd definitely like to see closed routes, or even routes that are still around today, but used to be much different.
No need to be patronising. Not everyone who prefers modern traction is a child, and I do know stuff other than the 385. I simply prefer present...
Oh I'd certainly love a steam route in the mid to late 30s. I'd adore Swindon to Paddington in the age of the Cheltenham Flyer, with the Castle...
Matt said in the preview stream that modern stuff is more popular, so it's probably less likely to happen than more modern routes, at least for...
Some of us love those "soulless plastic modern" trains. I grew up with them, and I have a lot more fun driving them. I wouldn't have cared about...
Or just use an external camera. I have to be honest, I wouldn't have cared a single bit about this route if it was set in the 70s, 80s or 90s. I...
It's a terrible shame that it's been delayed for Playstation. I was really looking forward to playing it later this week. I had a feeling this...
I will, actually. If people cared this much about cab views why did they stay quiet when the Jubilee and 8F have (accurately) even worse views,...
If we're going to decide what routes TSW gets based on how small cab windows are, then Spirit of Steam should never have been made. It's...
I wasn't comparing it to BML, just that it's the most excited I've been for a route since BML. I seem to be in the minority in that I don't mind A...
As about five others have said previously, they're probably representing farewell railtours, which did run on the route. There is a surprising...
Not even steam drivers would have their heads out constantly, especially in adverse weather. And they still wouldn't be able to see around corners...
I believe those options already exist and are called "zooming in" and "external camera view". Seriously where were all these people when Spirit of...
I thought that was more to do with the fact that those timings were for more powerful locomotives than the Jubilees seen in TSW. In real life,...
As long as they sound close to the originals I'm happy. And besides, I'd rather have inaccurate announcements than none at all.
