I still wonder if DTG have lost a lot of the specialised talent they employed at one time, people who understood physics, train performance and...

Perhaps you should let DTG to whom the question was posed answer that, not once again act as a self appointed spokesman…

Exactly this. Overall I like TSW a lot otherwise I wouldn’t be here and DTG have taken what was a largely ignored and niche topic in the late 90’s...

Shorter routes are indeed fine. I would happily have paid £25 or even £30 for the Ffestiniog Railway or my pet hobbyhorse, Blackpool Tramway...

Guess it could be a holding project, similar to Glossop last year which foreshadowed ECML.

I'm guessing this is one of the routes that would probably have been sorted by the Preservation Crew, if they hadn't been sent down the road.

Well I hate to say it but I really hope the Goblin Line is a complete flop for them, maybe force a rethink of the quality/quantity/price issue.

What would be the point with no more steam traction being made for the game? I had hoped for something different like the West Highland and/or...

That's pretty much the impression I got playing the TSC version and that had the noisy Class 172 to add interest. Effectively it's another Glossop...

Just called him a fanboy so expect I'll get a weeks holiday from the forum now. But his constant unwavering defence of anything and everything DTG...

Just because you are happy to sit in your fanboy heaven and take DTG's pricing doesn't mean to say those of us with a more pragmatic view can't...

You really can't get off your rose tinted DTG adoration, can you. Same could be said about those games as well which is why I only tend to buy...

If this had included the North London line as well, I would probably have parted with £30, the one handled milk float notwithstanding. But I...

This is why I just asked the question in the March roadmap Q&A - where do they honestly see TSW going, drab overpriced DLC often of poor quality....

Of course there could be an ulterior motive here, which is to make a possible subscription service look more appealing. Still no to that as well...

And having just finished a session on Snowrunner, okay not exactly like for like but when you look at what you get for each Season Pass, DTG pales...

Soryy just cannot justify paying £25 for this short uninteresting route, with an in all likelihood uninteresting train which at best will get...

Which is why it should either be taken off sale, or discounted to something like £3 with clear warnings that it's not up to the standard (ha!) of...

I was probably giving them too much credit going down the bus garage or recording lorries going up and down the High Street. Come to think of it,...

And fitting straight in the context of this thread, is DTG's outrageous expectation that we will just up and part with £25 for the 13 mile Goblin...

What QA measures/oversight are being applied on Rivet's work on Fife Circle, given concerns expressed about sound and physics on the 170, to...

And again it's a route that's already in TSC (minus Riverside), with arguably a better train (the 172) so absolutely no reason to pay this...

They are having a laugh at that price. Only £5 more for Salzburg to Rosenheim which gave us nearly 60 miles of new route that had multiple layers...

A combination of what Run 8 and Railroader offer with a nice short line could be a fresh start for US freight in TSW. Find a “fallen flag” or...

They can also come up with interesting scenarios but all for nought if the train sounds are LOVE. I mean the exterior and interior of the 170 look...

Then they can pay for their arrogance through no sale here…

I would tread cautiously buying reseller codes off places like Ebay. You have no certainty the codes haven’t been purchased with a stolen credit...

Sadly as testified by a response to my post, there are people who are easily pleased and will just accept the mediocre, trying to find all sorts...

Once again, the pedant. If they did it for SHG why can’t they help Rivet out?

Source?

As I said above, accept reality - they haven't fixed it by now, it's never getting fixed.

If you are on Steam and the local supermarkets are stocking Steam Wallet gift cards, just buy one or two a month at £20 a time and build up your...

With sounds sampled at the local bus garage after they bunged Jimmy the mechanic twenty quid for half an hour with a 1970’s portable tape...

Yes any tube or subsurface route needs to be set back a few years in the days of manual operation, to be remotely interesting.

RT is the most flawed and broken route in TSW. Don’t look for much if anything in the way of fixes from DTG as it has long since dropped off their...

Yes I think we need a bit more information. Core updates to TSW4 are free, the usual process is for DTG to rerelease as a new version which means...

As stated many times before… GWE - add the Thames Valley branches, including the freight branches though not Heathrow as discussed ad infinitum...

Moving on from sounds, the other unknown is physics. Nothing to be gleaned from the short section of the unit pulling away in that clip, but based...

The 158 could be the redeeming feature assuming the 170 is botched and it will sub for all the services. But at full price that will mean paying...

Got to go with londonmidland on this. I have travelled on 170’s plus as I said played the three variants in TSC and Rivet’s WIP demo doesn’t even...

From further comments on BROS, there was at one point concern about sand getting in point motors and clogging things up, which may have resulted...

Ah yes, got to think Goblins and trains with just one handle!

Sounds are nowhere near the standard of the 170 in the TSC Fife Circle either. But the route itself is going to be tempting, what a conundrum...

The only issue the 170's in TSC suffer from is the "speed lock" syndrome, when each intermediate throttle notch acts as a cruise control, so if...

Just posted in the other thread, after comparing with the AP 170 on Wherry Lines in TSC, Rivet sounds once again seem to be a dud.

Just off to run the AP 170 on Wherry Lines in TSC as a comparison. But got to say that sounds a bit grim. Obviously going to be a bit muted in the...

Slightly OT but in the UK electric cars are being used as justification for the massive hike in motor insurance premiums. My current insurer...

I just think it needs to be something away from the mountain railroad cliche and ISTR Matt alluding to that. Donner is just going to be another...

I worked on the railway for 40 years so will aware of that matey. If you took your posture to its logical extent then after 3 SPAD's in game it...

Regarding SPAD overide, suggested this a while back but think it was vetoed by the devs on account it could be used to stage and record...
