Speaking for myself, my nose and face are fine, and it has nothing to do with TSW3 routes not taking my fancy. Over a year ago now, DTG released...
True enough, but 1) even accounting for the (as last reported) 1/3 division between PC/PS/XB, and whatever the Steam/Epic division might be, it's...
Steamdb also gives their current player numbers at around 13,000 as I type this, with owner estimations at 3-5 million. Compare with TSW3's...
No worries on the compromise; this is spectacular. Thank you!
I'm always interested in reading people's opinions on the various DLCs, but I'm not nearly well enough versed in them to be able to tell from a...
Possibly the pics that are most liked by the forum people are more likely to also be liked by the judging people? Correlation=/=causation.
This being the case, would it make sense to simply uninstall the routes you don't play anyway? You can always redownload any that you decide to...
Happy birthday!
Aren't routes given a development budget first? Seems logical that a set budget would result in set pricing. Smaller planned routes got a...
Gen 8 is a big chunk of revenue for not a big chunk of extra compilation time. How does DTG lopping off a big chunk of their revenue enable them...
With a sign on the door saying "Beware of the leopard".
Are you even allowed to say that much? Please do be careful.
I totally forgot Sid Meier and Civilization came out of Microprose. My dad loves the Sim City/Civilization genre, but that kind of...
Microprose put out some pretty good stuff, including a terrific RPG set in medieval Germany called Darklands. But hoo boy, talk about a company...
Well, it's a video game, and thus expects video game reflexes. :)
Your taking the time to write these detailed reality checks is always appreciated, Matt, thank you!
It's worth mentioning that every point you're making above is what makes DV less of a sim. DTG specifically aims for realism in the trains and...
I thought the licensing issue referred to the railroad licenses DTG has to get. UE is free and open source, and anyone can modify it to their...
FWIW, looking at the channel, I see a 4 1/2 hour stream posted two hours ago that includes EDG, IoW, and the Class 700. Is that the one you're...
After a lifetime of seeing U.S. freight trains in action, actually being able to be behind the wheel, as it were, and control these beasts is...
So if you're doing SoS liveries, do you get a steamboat? [ATTACH]
That is amazing. Best sales pitch for TSW3 I've seen yet.

One of DTG's more admirable policies IMO is their commitment to engaging with the public, both via the forums and with their dedication to...
I hate that stuff. We'd run into it all the time on pinball machines we were restoring, because people would use it to anchor screws and such on...
I will predict now that Windows 12 is coming.
That's sad to hear, since it seems like the people who play it tend to appreciate it. I thought it was wonderful, and it got plenty more good...

I thought someone said that the advertised job was Technical Director, while Jane is CTO.
Guess I could have worded that more clearly. I wasn't referring to getting a patch as a whole, just wondering if the PC patch had some individual...
Interestingly, people in the other thread are saying that the post-patch PC version isn't having the problems that the consoles are. I wonder if...
Edit: Never mind, timeline memory fail.
This may be exactly why people just say "ice". :)
What do we know? Jane is in the role of CTO, a management role, and I don't believe claimed to even be doing any development. They created this...
Just FYI, UE5 games will run on gen 8 consoles.
I have and did, my main conclusion being that while there does seem to be evidence of past questionable behavior on Jane's part, there are also so...
Don't know Jane from Adam, so I can't say I have a dog in this fight. But what gives me pause is the behavior of the attackers. While Jane's...
I remember being bummed as a kid when cabooses stopped appearing on freight trains. 50 years later, I had to deal with them on Clinchfield and...
I've just tried to make a small change in a post (replacing a question mark with a period), and got a message that the revised post was too...
It's worth a reminder that at last official word from DTG, consoles were 2/3 of the user base, and while back then we were also told the vast...
I can live without this due to having ridden more than once through the Moffat Tunnel on the California Zephyr. They cut off the outside air due...
Opportunity to educate an ignorant colonist: what changed between an ICE 1 and an ICE 3, and what happened to the ICE 2?
Shilling for more sales is rather important for a company's survival. :) Especially attracting new customers. A series of articles highlighting...
Nope, DTG has said many times that they develop for current systems and scale down for older ones as necessary. They've also said that they try...
Your post (and several of the above posts) has considerably more info than the OP. Other posts question the necessity. Just as a new route...
What exactly would this add to TSW that would bring in enough revenue to make it worth spending the time and money to implement it?
The Focus purchase was announced on April 20, only 2.5 months ago. Speaking as someone who works for a smaller company that was acquired by a...
Just had another idea: A passenger run starts as normal, but then the interior lights go out and the train becomes a high speed express, because...
A train set up as a haunted house walkthrough would be awesome, but I could see it making the licensors skittish.
Not sure of the exact method by which Humble gets the keys, but the bulk of the money by default goes to the publisher. In the case of this...
