I would say that is very unfair, I would not describe DTG routes as mediocre at best. Their quality has improved of late, WCMLS aside. Yes there...
Yes I was alluding to that in my post.
Fictional routes when done well and have a "story and location" behind them are fine There have been some great fictional routes in TSC....
The something big could just be a red Herring and might not be something most of us would consider a "big" announcement. As said we have been here...
Personally not for me. I suppose as I side project I wouldn't object.
Was about to say the same thing. Mid 80's with Peaks and Valenta engined HST's. Would love to drive a rattly class 127 on St. Pancras to Bedford...
Yes there are many routes which would be revitalised by extensions.
Well the fact that DTG are still in business and are still producing the same sort of routes surely is the answer to your first comment....
I understand what you're saying but if a period diesel mainline was produced and included the 218 I wouldn't complain. I only drive it on...
You don't have to use livery designer. DTG seem to be trying to combine a simulator with gameplay or fun elements for the less serious simmers. I...
A couple of my favourite routes (in era) are pre-TOD4 routes. NTP with an timetable and lighting upgrade wold probably surpass the new JT route as...
I agree the 218 deserves its own route. Hopefully one day.
Why would you buy anything from a developer you don't expect much from? I don't believe most reasonable thinking people would, I certainly...
Okay fair enough, I know very littl about German railways although trying to learn. Hopefully one day TSG might make a suitable freight loco for LFR.
Why "bash" as you put it? Why the need to denigrate someone else's work when celebrating another? Bare in mind DTG release several routes a year...
It seems not, Rivet lives rent free in so many people's heads on this forum!
It does look fun to drive and sounds awesome, hopefully it will sound similar in game. If it fits in with the LFR time period and is suitable...
Absolutely fantastic. So much detail has gone into the route and I love the variety of workings, it has pretty much everything. The 87 and mark...
I'd have been happy with an 85 rather than an 86. Maybe a future DLC or maybe an 81. I would love an 85 but would take an 86 first.
A WCML set in the 70's, 80's or 90's without an 86 would just be unrealistic. Personally I am glad it's an 86 (well almost certainly it is) even...
Even that's an improvement to what it will be like in 20 years
I think their route is thought to be the North London line.
Well the steam engines on heritage railways are still around of course. In the UK there are a lot of different classes preserved. If you were...
A reversal of the decision to abandon steam....well probably only likely in some hallucination filled dream.
Agreed there is no evidence to suggest people have forgotten it. It probably isn't mentioned because it is such a good DLC and people are busy...
I presume this will come with a class 378 not the class 710. From the screenshots on the development thread it looks to be high quality and it is...
Why would anyone lose interest if an add-on was delayed by a week, six months maybe but a week? I have enough to play with whilst waiting an extra...
Pantograph I would assume.
I agree, I hope that in time most if not all will get a lighting upgrade.
Would the 232 have appeared on Linke Rheinstrecke in the period it is set? If so it would be great to see it available on there, although I gather...
I am glad DTG are doing this work to improve the WCML and it is good to hear that some non-DTG people have got on board with it too. The...
I think the class 86 would be the logical choice and it will certainly be a day one purchase for me too. I would love to see a class 25 in the...
Not a bad roadmap. I like the sound of the TSG route and train that will be a day one purchase. Interesting to see another UK road developer....
I hope we do see a blue version for Blackpool branches, not blue/grey as only a few in Scotland and one experimental half engined version carried...
I doubt there would be much competition. If you like solely modern routes then you are likely to get the ATS route, if you prefer backdated routes...
Many on here are obsessed with Rivet. They presumably can't be that unsuccessful as they still wouldn't be making content. This forum gets more...
If they ever start producing steam again in the sim I would much rather they appear in a suitable period route rather than a heritage railway. The...
I was referring to their depiction of the mountain scenery and your comment that they don't put any effort in!
You haven't seen Berminalinie then?
The save game doesn't work for me unless I am on the original run. As soon as I start the next service in timetable mode the save doesn't work....
The line is now electrified and all the mechanical signalling has gone. I don't know if any of the signal boxes have survived but I suspect not...
If they hadn't abandoned steam, from a UK perspective I wouldn't have any hesitation in choosing it. That is the main fly in the ointment for me...
My hot take. Despite it's faults and the relative lack of historic content, particularly steam, it is for me the best simulator and the one I...
I would like to see North Wales coast circa 86 or maybe early 80's. The NTP stock would fit right in although you'd want some mark 1's ideally. A...
They changed the doors too as if I recall the original bus type doors were prone to opening when passing another train at speed.
I would like to see them make Exeter to Plymouth/Paignton next. Maybe set in the mid 70's utilising the Western and having the 45 and 47 backdated...
I wouldn't hold your breath. It seems anything vaguely historic has been forgotten about by DTG
It will certainly be a day one purchase for me, unless, as said above there is something very wrong with it on the stream, which is extremely...
I would love to see some Australian routes, as I would like to see many more parts of the world represented, but as said it probably needs someone...
Often DTG make comments on a thread along the lines of - this is how it will be on release and don't expect it to change, to manage expectations....
