With 50 minutes to go, it's time to look forward to the 3rd Round! We have 14 routes in 7 ties, so let's take a look. Routes listed below outside...
I do wonder if Clinchfield may have a revival as more Americans wake up.
Especially when Kinzigtalbahn - which in my opinion is a substantially better route than WCMLS - is being punished for its issues against BML...
We are LIVE for round Two! Ties 1-7: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/tsw-world-cup-24-25-round-2-section-1.87827/ Ties 8-14:...
It's time to get the ball rolling on the TSW World Cup's knockout stages. We have 14 ties, Seven of which will be here, and the other seven of...
I'll fire it up tonight and run until about 20:00 UTC tomorrow.
Last one for now: I've realised I've listed MBTA Commuter as '32'. It's on 23, and as such is below San Bernardino Line (29), which will,...
^ As there's 28 routes, I'll have to split this into 2 polls. Games 1-7 will be in one thread, Games 8-14 will be in another. Apologies, I know...
Round Two Let's take a look at this first. I'm typing this live as I draw so the order may be strange. We'll start with the format. Format Round...
Well, ladies and gentlemen, it's over for Europe and Britain... So, let's take a look at the results. Just under 2 hours for North America!...
As it stands... We have some tight races here in the European section, let's take a look as we head into the final four hours. Group A: A tight...
As it stands... With Six Hours to go, we've got some runaway trains alongside some close races, so let's take a look at the current position here....
You could even call it London Commuter, perhaps?
I think the group helps it TBH. Cathcart - my pick in that group (bias) - is a commuter-only route so doesn't really trump WCML in that regard,...
[ATTACH] Routes ordered in terms of their difference compared to 2023, just for anyone interested. LIRR Commuter the big improvement (on LIRR),...
Two Hours in... [ATTACH][ATTACH] As things stand UK:A is a wipeout for the bottom three routes with SEHS / Preston - Carlisle splitting all the...
Of the current group leaders it's got the lowest vote. I think it's probably helped by the fact it's with Bakerloo Line so votes from that will...
All voting is up and running, threads linked below! Buckle up folks as we get ready for another thrilling competition. EU:...
Voting for Europe is now live! Due to poll-size restrictions there is no spacing between Groups C, D and E, so be careful when voting. All...
We are underway here in the British section! Finished voting here? Take part in the EU and US sections via these links: EU:...
We are live here in the American conference, so all systems are a-go! Done voting here? Go and vote in Europe and Britain too! EU:...
UPDATE: Britain is now up and running (32mins late, my best Northern impression short of cancelling it) It does allow me to do that, but I don't...
Europe is now live, Britain to follow. In the cases of the UK and Europe - there will be no (or limited) blank options due to restrictions with...
Correct. Anyone with any number of routes can vote for any route they wish.
Hauptstrecke Rhein-Ruhr with a revived timetable, MSB in an LIRR Commuter-style extension to Fulda or Würzburg (or both) or NTP. West Cornwall as...
All threads are live and ready for the polls to go live tomorrow. Some information for when that happens: Voting times (UTC) UK/EU: 12:00 Sunday...
Welcome back for the 24/25 TSW World Cup! It's a much more passenger-focused setup for the US as we have the recent additions of San Bernardino...
Welcome back to the 24/25 TSW World Cup! It's a much less Germany-centric European lineup this year, owing to the arrival of the Swiss-Italian...
Welcome back to the 24/25 TSW World Cup! We've got a few new routes joining us this year, including WCML South, the Suffragette Line, Rivet Games'...
I'd say the favourites are among this five: Last year's finalists: Blackpool, which is a solid route and, of course, won last year's WCML -...
A thread will be done for each section of the group stages (UK/EU/NA) and likely the same for the second round (probably split into two) just...
Definitely not. If we count ECW as a network then we'd have to count Peak Forest, Birmingham Cross-City, Midland Mainline, Tees Valley Line,...
Basically the Cardiff City section of the network with little else outwith, beyond the Penarth line. I guess it lives up to it's name, at least....
The Metrolink loco is the only other new DTG announcement as of yet.
Dovetail have produced as many British routes as German routes (both 16) and that's not counting Vorarlberg. Including content on the Roadmap...
They used to. Skate 3 has a ****-ton of adverts ranging from Adidas to Dr. Pepper to T-Mobile. Older FIFA Games used to allow players to select a...
TSW VR - based at least on this Forum's reaction to it - seems like it will go down as a gimmick and little more. If the entire game is Harlem...
The 150 on WCL is poor quality in terms of sounds and how it plays, so Dovetail's own version - with a version wearing the RR livery - would do...
It would definitely do Rivet / West Cornwall a really big favour. It would probably bring WCL up from it's spot among the worst in the game.
I still think that including both Heath High Level and Cogan - which both appear to be within the track area shown - would be huge for this route....
A solitary drive session may be 45 minutes, but it will be possible to run multiple in a 'shift' without doing the same run multiple times.
The route is DTG so i'd guess (hope) it would be them, although I wouldn't mind the 150/2 model being reused from WCL as it's quite a solid one.
You've answered your own question here. Mildmay Line is - without the two branches - a linear run with no variation apart from the PIS going...
KGX to Posh (false advertising?) would probably be much better than most parts of the ECML if it had the Hereford Loop and plenty of commuter...
Onto America... To finalise our group stage, we'll do the US and Canada in it's new format. Rather than a straight shootout between two groups of...
Threads for Group Stage, and Knockout round voting will be posted in this section of the forum when they're live.
Europa... It's your turn. Europe, let me start with a correction - there's only 23 routes here, so Group D will have Four routes. Regardless,...
1. Skyhook? 2. Barking is just for authenticity which, on a route of the Goblin's small scale, is expected. 3. The D Stock is close enough to the...
Better judgement - recognising that this week will be dominated again by Season of Reveals, plus the inbound WCML South Update, has prompted me to...
