To be fair it's both sides. On some routes there are invisible "barriers" to stop the passengers from going into the tracks (WSR I think) so you...
It's a fair point, jesper. DTG has to effectively do several times the QA because it's on so many platforms compared to the biggest competition...
Why do you assume it's different for TSW given it's the same company and most of the same third parties involved?
Heard from who?
I wonder what the reasoning is behind those two decisions.
Well they have to be doing enough that Dovetail considers it worth it to not offer the game from their own website. If it were cheaper and easier...
Yeah, it's a compromise because people are insisting on "high end performance" that will 'also play well on low end systems." Since the demands...
I just heard that the owner of Unreal Engine (Epic Games?) charges 5% royalties if you use it in your game. Is this true? What other "hidden...
There's a whole thread about AMTRAK in game and why it won't probably happen... from DTG. I think it was... Matt? Maybe? That talked about it...
I didn't say it needs "additional traffic" (although it may, I don't ride that line as I'm not a local) I said it needs something else to sell...
It's not a "subject level" simulator no. It's very much a game for casuals...which is why so many casuals enjoy it. They don't have nearly the...
https://www.railwaymagazine.co.uk/5928/from-the-archive-brits-abroad/ Just thought it'd be an interesting discussion piece.
To be fair the oldest routes are mostly freight. (Harlem I believe is the only one not removed from game that is older) Just like almost all the...
They are actually in comparison and in depth. As I said, you'd have to accept the low fidelity of ETS if you want a game to play like ETS. If we...
Yes... having 50 times as many customers for ETS means you can charge less because each employee is basically supported by 50 times as many...
If you look at what is in and what isn't in ATS/ETS then you can understand why. The demands of TSW fans are FAR, FAR greater than those for...
Horseshoe Curve has a lot of new stuff that could be added (using the sidings for one) but also some locos that could be used as layers (not a...
The GWE remaster included lost of new layers of new DLC on it (802, 220, 350, 484, etc) So yes it was connected to encouraging you to buy more DLC...
Remember the remasters are generally tied into new DLC releases for the route.
Is that just when it's foggy?
James is included in the Deluxe version. What they're saying is that you get it for $10 extra now as a Deluxe package or buy it separately later...
You really should consider seeing if they could use the advice from a Shed pusher's point of view.
If it's a matter of just tweaking the horsepower, that's hardly a "redevelopment from the ground up." That implies there are HUGE problems that...
I can't prove or disprove that, but they do seem to drive differently and have different features. How much they are different or what's...
While I agree a single, better version that layers onto the others WOULD be nice... you're barking uphill if you want it for free. I've suggested...
To be fair, from the look of it, it's not even a freight-focused route (like say Sand Patch or Cajon Pass are) it's roughly 50/50. If anything,...
Paid for by...who? It's not just "one 66"... there are several of them made by different people. You can't just "toss it out" since it's not ONE...
Each "leg" is only 30 minutes to the next stop. It adds up to a full day (real time) of work. That's peak freight train gameplay. It's exactly...
Yes, there's already a lot that's not fully utilized as it is. The new Czech and Preston routes for example show just how many "empty sidings"...
Are you suggesting paying $60 for a Class 66? That's what Flight Sims do charge for one aircraft so if you want the same fidelity....
Did it not have them before? What crossing are you referring to on WSR?
I predicted between 2-3 weeks on Feb 27th so do I get the betting pool pot?
Well March 17th is between 2 and 3 weeks from Feb 27th =-)
Well one of your two choices so half points =-)
That's not bad.
This is getting off topic however, and there are already MANY threads on this issue it could be moved to. Post on any of those or create a new...
