I mean that's exactly what layers are for, right? I''d quite enjoy having the GP38 available just for the switching services.
HMA is the only route with missing layers on console AFAIK. At least on Xbox- can't personally speak for PS.
I'm getting more and more excited for this route. I think the scenery looks fantastic (except the lighting, as usual- pls god let the engine...
I've found that you can cut the brakes out and then back in to cheat PCS if you don't want to do it the prototypical way. If you've had an...
Hmmm.... i swear i've gone to couple to static consists (that i hadn't peviously interacted with) and the coupler has consistently been locked....
It strikes me as odd that they haven't released any NS content for TSW. I wonder if they weren't able to transfer license over for some reason? No...
Good observation! Seems like the couplers default to "locked" on this route, which may be prototypical (no idea), but probably deserves a reminder...
So you can get these missing services on PS and Xbox if you start a GWE timetable service via Journey mode (doesn't matter which one, but i...
Yeah this one worked for me first time, but i've had many issues with resuming saved games across all routes. Hopefully they can get it patched...
This happened to me on my first run as well. Lesson learned lol.
Hope you're right, but i'm keeping my expectations firmly in check for now. I'm reminded of when "Journey mode" was first announced, and the...
So i see lots of speculation about what "rush hour" will be, but this above seems pretty definitive. I'd say maybe one new route in the bundle...
Just finished it now, and agree it was fantastic!! Clinchfield is quickly solidifying its place as my favorite TSW route. Question (slight...
This sounds great!
100% this should be fixed. No-brainer.
This has been an issue for way too long. I was hoping that with Clinchfield featuring chained scenarios, they had fixed it. I literally never save...
I think it would be fun too, but probably not a financially viable project unfortunately.
I'm eastern US and bought it from the Xbox store at Midnight. Do a search for "Clinchfield" in the store search bar.
The trail unit is set to "cut-in" in the tutorial. Once i cut them out the brakes work as expected. It's weird because they're setup correctly in...
Fantastic route. Really lives up to the hype IMO.
Holy cow- didn't realize the F7 had them, i don't think it mentions it in the tutorial (the sd40 tutorial does explain as you say above). Thanks...
Haven't had any issues so far, seems smoother than SPG for sure. This is on an base (non-kinect) Xbox 1.
Don't forget the SD40 has dynamic brakes- your best friend for downhill running.
For the brakes, one tap of LT will set brakes to "First service", which is about a 6 pound reduction. After that it gets tricky with the...
There's a control near the brake handle that you can toggle- it's very similar to the cut-off valve on any other EMD loco (GP38-2, etc). They do...
If you have the controls set to "classic" it does this for tutorials and scenarios on routes that are native to TSW2. The "preserved collection"...
OK, first off, I absolutely LOVE the route... But, have to vent a little. First service i ran after doing tutorial was Train 93 (i think, it's...
You have to cut-out the brakes in the trailing unit, but the tutorial never tells you this (just kinda had a feeling based on how MU setups work...
If you have the DB BR 204 DLC, it uses that track, but only for freight. I have no idea what runs there IRL. A DMU of some sort?
Only 10 hours to go for US eastern time- so hyped!!! US Freight is my favorite, so i've been really looking forward to Clinchfield. Caboose is...
I agree with your general point, but maybe this route would be in addition to a more popular route like NEC? We don't really know about about any...
Interesting. I mean they DID just create the F7A/B for Clinchfield, wouldn't be that hard to convert to an FP7....
I mean in the grand scheme of things, that's quite small. Games like Call of Duty regularly put out updates 5 or more times that size. Maybe on PC...
Quite a few people predicted a no-win situation for DTG when the whole roadmap concept was announced and that seems to be coming to fruition....
An public editor's not gonna happen- how many times do they have to say it? And there ARE 3rd party devs (Rivet, TSG, Skyhook), though i'm sure...
Weird, i remember this being a global option, not one you need to set for each route. Also never experienced OP's bug- would be super annoying...
Sweet- thanks for the info!
Intruiging! I had assumed they'd port over the DC-Baltimore section from TS20XX, but NJT is much more interesting IMO. Amtrak/NJT from NYP to...
Rode the Strasburg Railroad a bunch of times, especially as a kid. It's only about 25 miles from me. Not familiar with Reading and Northern- do...
Just get rid of it altogether, and put a "give up service" option in the pause menu. The dumbest "feature" in TSW2, imho.
I'd pre-order right now if i could *cough* xbox *cough*. But i'll be buying at 12:01am on the 8th. Haven't been this excited for a route before....
Well it wouldn't have to be immediately- even if they aren't able to travel until, say, the fall, that could still result in a 2022 release. I...
I vote yes as well, though i'd probably not prefer another high-speed route, but absolutely yes for something in Japan.
Omg i do the same thing lololol
D'oh, how'd i forget that lol.
Gary's articles are always fantastic, and i'm even MORE hyped for this route!!!
This is a great idea. I think the tutorials will have to be much more comprehensive than any that have come before for TSW. This is a more...
So, will there be a separate "Steam team" at DTG working on what seems to be a huge undertaking? As someone who doesn't really have much interest...
There's the answer, then. Saves me driving the 395 service, thanks for that- just much prefer driving the 375 and especially the 465.
Right i was hoping for a release this week, but probably was a little unrealistic with the holiday coming up. Here's hoping for next Thursday!
