Not easily worked with? I'll put that down to the AI. ;)

Yes, the involvement of Brandon and Tyler are two good reasons to buy the route. But that $53+ price tag..........

A lengthy freight run to deliver flour and produce would be reason enough to include the short sidings that go there I would think.

Fair enough. Now write this down and put it somewhere you can always find it: 1800 ( 6pm ) UK time ( 1700 [ 5pm ] during daylight saving )

Maybe the increase is driven by higher costs. But is a 12.5% increase justified? Some of that increase can be attributed to DTG's effective...

Well, Tyler certainly knows how to sell a route, it sounds very impressive and this ought to be a release purchase for me. But I'm loathe to...

Seconded!

Well it's been a disappointing week. First the delay to NY- Stamford, and now a rather meh patch. And everything comes in 3's..........

What comes across is that you don't expect much. A cardinal rule of life is if you don't ask, you don't get. And, with a company that charges...

Or, if you have LIRR2, you can just run the M7 in slippery conditions. It has the same regenerative brakes.

Well yes. We in North America are not exactly overwhelmed with route releases compared to UK/European players. Morristown is a distant 6 months...

Something to bear in mind is that the license for MTA routes is obviously pretty strict and the safety system ( which, remember, includes the...

The M8 has the same regenerative braking system as the LIRR M7, so shouldn't be a major problem to fix. At least it was spotted before release. I...

Not sure why some players are unhappy about driving with mandatory safety system on by default, providing they're reliably installed. This is how...

The average overall speed of US freight is about 20-25 mph. The goal of freight railroads is to get there rather than get there fast. However...

Will the timetable reflect the busy tempo of 125th St station, unlike the sleepiness of the Harlem Line version?

Whenever the next North American route comes along, I really hope it's somewhere other than the East or West coasts. Like maybe, the Midwest....

Goodness gracious it's just a video game pal!! :D

Given the largely urban nature of this route, would you demonstrate the night lighting? Is there plenty of ambient lighting and lighting from...

Yes, that makes sense.

It's never pointless to remind the developers of such glaring mistakes. DTG is very quick to update the game in advance of a release which will...

Well, notwithstanding the Raildriver issue, I'm glad I saved my money by not immediately buying the Czech route. The Stamford route is looking...

Thank heavens for that. Let's hope all the included locos do. This should never be a question for any route, period.

Well the problem is that many of us have been playing with Raildriver for many years ( in my case probably 20 ) and have real difficulty playing...

Doesn't Sand Patch already have a " cold start " scenario for the AC4400CW? That might be a place to implement an expert loco.

Well, according to MP the implementation of the Raildriver app for a route is fairly simple. So why not just do it for those players who use the...

Anecdotally, I count about 30 players who have posted or seconded that they have refunded or declined to purchase the Czech route without...

+2 Good thinking. I think the AC4400CW would be an excellent choice.

+1

Interesting that the moment the lack of Mastery rewards is reported, this generates an immediate response from a staff member. But after several...

No Raildriver/Hardware support= No sale.

And so far no response from DTG about the lack of Raildriver/Hardware support, unless you consider a deafening silence an acceptable reaction.

Well, if that's the case, it's a red flag for me. And the $50 ( with tax ) price ? It can wait for a sale. And Raildriver support. Also RD...

Yes the 1st amendment is under attack again, as it has been before. But, believe me, it will survive, as it has before. Anyway, this is off-topic...

Of course. But even if it's not well- reasoned, you still have the right to express it.

Well on this forum, people have the right to speak their mind and express their opinion, whether you consider it to be " constructive " or not....

I'm confused. Has the price been lowered?

Yes a bit worrying. Remember the freight component in NYT was withdrawn at the last minute Frankly I won't buy NYC Stamford if the freight goes MIA.

Let's hope not. Actually I'm on CST. :D

Had a little difficulty figuring start time for today's Roadmap because US DST started yesterday.

Too stiff for me at $50 for a single track route, despite the new rolling stock and freight component. Certainly will buy it at a better price...

Maybe someone could save me some time and point me to the evidence ( provided by DTG ) that this annual nonsense of downloading essentially the...

Absolutely. Even though I'm doubtful that anyone at DTG is listening* to the forums any more, we should constantly point out these issues...

I don't know. With those specs I don't think I'd waste my time tinkering. Even vanilla, you probably get great graphics and gameplay, right? ;)

Yes, such unfortunate accidents happen everywhere. But there's no need to depict them in the game!! Nothing to do with Czech railways however....

From the very beginning of TSW, DTG have hardly if ever mentioned, acknowledged or attempted to fix NPC behavior. ( except to give them all an...

Yes, it was an unexpected bonus to see some night running. However I was not impressed. Only a few yards of track were illuminated, the absence...

Yes, US trains have powerful headlights, but these are not usually modeled well in TSW. However, as you say, the night lighting is generally...

Yes, everyone has his/her own yardstick by which they measure a route's attractiveness. For some it's distance which I don't care about. For...

Yes, in addition to the strange and largely ineffective night lighting which would restrict me to daylight driving, I didn't notice much if any AI...
