Just played it last night and had the same results as OP. The 395 overtook me at Newington and then sat at Rainham for about 6 min (seemingly at a...
Making a mental note to play this service. Sounds fun!
Great suggestion on this service. Just finished it with a Dash 8 leading and an SD40-2 trail, and it was a little touch and go getting over the...
Good info- thanks!
It's a "deadman's pedal". IRL if the engineer takes his foot off the pedal for a certain period of time, an alarm sounds and if he doesn't...
Somehow i just discovered this thread- fantastic!
FYI the NEC NY Route and its accompanying loco DLC (SW1000R/Keystone cabcar and CSX GP40-2) are not playable in TSW2. You might want to hold off...
The sound looping bug seems to affect all routes at times (at least on Xbox). One of the worst and longest-running bugs in the game IMO.
Thank you!!
I'd say get the MP36 and the MP15 for Penn Corridor, as you'll then have a really complete and busy route. I also really like the TVL, especially...
I'm enjoying it so far. It's a much different experience than anything else in TSW to this point. Probably won't be one of my everyday routes,...
Glad these have been added. Wish there were a few more shunting services in Acton yard- the passing traffic is busy and fun to watch.
Really like this idea!
Beyond excited for this one!!!
Very cool!! I'd like to nominate the Saluda Grade for a US Heritage route- now THAT'S an incline! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saluda_Grade
No freight services means probably a no-buy for me. Like others have said, service mode is the heart of TSW, and Rivet doesn't have a great track...
I've seen many 47's. I'm not as good at spotting the 45's, so can't say for sure.
So hyped!!! Hoping for an early April release- maybe the 8th?
Fair points. I play both TSW and ATS/ETS, and try to keep in mind that they're very different concepts and i like and dislike things about each....
Not very familiar with the 101, but is there possibly a multi-unit brake setup that needs to happen with the 6-car set?
Thanks for the info- very interesting!
Was really hoping for Clinchfield first, but Arosa has me intruiged tbh. No pre-order discount for Xbox as usual- i still don't quite understand...
I bought it because i didn't have the Class 52 and I like the idea of additional service mode timetables since that's where i spend 99% of my time...
Wait, so what's missing from the timetable at launch?? Also why is so much important info ONLY released on the streams??? This seems to happen...
Yeah, one of the best IMO.
Nice- i prefer to have it on. It's saved me more than once from drowsiness lol.
So, sorry if this has been asked, but will AWS be enabled on this version of GWR? I'm assuming no based on NTP.
I've come around on this. Since i don't have the Class 52, i think it's worth it for me, personally, at that price. Looking forward to some...
Really like it- not much to add that hasn't been said. I'd love to see the sound quality on the 465 be the standard going forward. I really adds...
I don't remember all the details of that scenario, but most of the westbound trains are slow movers until you reach the summit. If you have to...
Hopefully if it sells well they'll release both a mainline loco for substitutions (U36), and a switcher (SW7). This has become my most...
Gotta use classic control scheme (hold RS once you're in Classic controls), or plug in a keyboard.
I've had mixed feelings about this pack since we first heard about it, and this article has not changed my mind significantly. I like the concept...
Can't believe people are complaining about learning stuff. Not to mention, if you actually read it, there's quite a bit of info about the TSW2...
Have only played one of these so far, but it was pretty good- well done DTG!
Yes! Finally a new US freight route- plus the iconic F7. Really hope it turns out good!
Well, i'll add my disappointment to the list. Not so much that the roadmap is delayed (stuff happens), but that increasingly the most important...
There's never been a good answer to this that i've seen.
This is another long-running TSW mystery. My theory is that somehow it must be interconnected with some other game systems that would break if...
Maybe this will be a freebie for the dedicated fanbase....cause it doesn't sound like they've put much effort into it. I like the "different era...
This might be an internal constraint, but it's not any kind of MS restriction. There are plenty of 3rd-party games that debut on GamePass.
No arguing taste, but with the massive growth in craft breweries in the US, you're really missing out on some great beers. One just opened up 5...
The static road numbers on the coal hoppers is the bug that gets me- it's like the bad old days of MSTS. It can't be a hard fix as it works...
I'm going with a "yes, but" answer: + I like the CSX portion quite a bit. + The ACS-64 was fun to drive and well modeled. + The Amtrak switcher...
Just want to agree that the radio chatter is great and should be implemented wherever it's appropriate to do so. Another example of sound issues...
Pretty amazing that this issue hasn't been addressed yet. Goes back to the original TSW (at least for me).
Another tip- don't be afraid to go heavy on the throttle from a start with the F40. I usually start in notch 4, though some people go even higher....
I really like both, but agree if you're not into switching maybe wait for a big discount on the MP15. OTOH, the MP15 adds new services to the...
I ran into this issue after opening windows on Bakerloo, but honestly haven't played this route since just after launch. Hope you're able to get...
