Not sure why it's an either/or. I was proposing doing both. You sell each one individually AND bundles.
Adding little things for lower cost to add gradually would sell better than larger chunks for a higher price tag. For example adding 3 locos one...
I think you just answered your question =-) "Other companies do it."
I don't see there being any "Sodor 2" =-) Different marketing style.since it's through Mattel.
I don't have that experience at all. It feels like it's what was promised for the price promised. I never expected the "whole world of Sodor" in...
So just like TSW and just like TTTE toys and videos? =-)
I could see a few DLCs a year till it's filled out. At least 2-3. Anything less than 2 and people lose interest. Anything more than 3 and you...
Over the course of the year, or all at once? Because that'd be a lot of DLCs to be out at once.
I have a hunch they didn't have anything confirmed until sales figures came out, so they wouldn't start a project until they had a solid sales...
I'm not saying denied permission. I'm saying that since it's 100% Mattel/Hasbro's property they are 100% going to dictate what is made, released...
I'd expect a route DLC and an additional loco DLC for it, although I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised with more than that, I get the feeling...
Gen 8 was already old a year ago too. It didn't run great then. It's just gotten to the point where it can't be ignored anymore. Like losing your...
Condescending how? He didn't insult anyone. He said 13 year old systems are obsolete. That's just a statement of fact. Nothing is saying you are...
Jan, can you specifically say when you're removing content and which it was instead of having to guess which it was and it not connecting with...
Was "back in the day" when you were making half as much? Making it about the same number of hours of work to buy one? While anything with a...
It's not a good point because they're entirely different games and ETS is far below TSW levels in graphics and features. ETS is FUN don't get me...
[MEDIA] This doesn't look terrible to me like those who are saying it's "like bad TSC quality." It's not really my style, but it doesn't look...
hmmm video unavailable
It's not "one product." They're just essentially selling other peoples' products at this point. As long as the core is updated to enable those...
I don't really think there's a "TSW 7 standard." There's individual expectations, but "quality" has always been all over the place depending on...
I'm going to wait and see what happens. No point getting upset over what we haven't even seen a preview of yet. Bit early to start "rating" a...
Or one book. Imagine if there had just been the first Thomas story. Until there were multiple stories, it wasn't a "series" it was a one-off....
Well you need buzz...and more than one release to make an ecosystem. One shots are always dicey.
Having 4 people and doing a route for TSC every couple years does not equal a full time studio team. It still sounds like a few guys doing it on...
I am not following that thought process at all. Was some of that monologue in your head and didn't reach the keyboard? What does SCS have to do...
They don't seem to have been releasing anything for TSC since 2023, and I can't find anything they released in their name. Don't even know how big...
That sounds like a plausible situation. I've seen that happen on projects before. QA: "Hey, you need to fix this and get back to us." Vendor: "Ok...
Doesn't even have to be PC. I think something like 80% of sales of TSW are consoles so, even if it's "only" Xbox or PS, that'd be maybe 40% of...
I wonder if they could just do the whole TSW 7 hype and their release "bundle".... and leave it at that. No new features, just a revamp of the...
I have no issues with Crewe-Preston. *shrugs* I know, I know "well that's your experience"... but it is important to keep in mind that issues can...
To be fair though, it hasn't been in DTG hands for 4 years. It was sitting at Union Workshop for most of that time. Yes, they seem to have dropped...
I'd prefer they catch it at some point before release, even if it's unfortunately later rather than earlier. Not enough to know how or what was...
This is the point where someone will say "well go play Running Train" and the other person will retort "Will I can't because it's not on console!"...
[MEDIA]
It's possible. I figure they weren't going to commit unless the first one sold, and it takes time to create a second DLC. Guess we'll see.
As a PC player, a lot of it depends on what else you're doing on your PC. What windows and programs do you have open? Music? Youtube? Social...
I know this isn't the TSC forum, but Richyrail did a video of the TSC version of the SAME route made by the SAME people so for those who don't...
If you guys think TSW is bad, you have not begun to see the amount of spaghetti games out there =-) Try to give some of the indy bleeding edge...
Well... a FEW people wanted longer services. A FEW people wanted shorter services. Most people seemed okay with the 45 minute limit that DTG has...
Background on the Tadami Line for comparison https://asocialnomad.com/japan/tadami-line/
I don't have the speed limits, but I have one of the timetables. https://www.rail-sim-community.com/index.php?file-download/123/ Looks like for...
Sarcasm is the unofficial language of the forum.
Oh no, now you've done it. You'll awaken the "THERE'S TOO MANY TIMETABLES!" people.
I can see the issue with the 3 or 4 long services being broken up. Not saying it's "game breaking" or anything, but if the goal is to give...
I don't think every service went the whole distance, only 3 or 4 times a day was the whole route run at once.
This is a fair critique on a 50 mile line with 28 potential stops. Even if you only stop for a minute or two at each stop, that can add up....
It's USUALLY usable. Plus you can only save one at a time.
To be clear I'm not complaining or asking for more to be added unrealistically. I was just explaining why it wasn't a good fit for me personally...
That is some really amazing tech =-)
Seems roughly fair for a TSW DLC these days...maybe a little bit high. The only thing possibly reducing value is that it's the first route in Asia...
