Completely agree. The 'Save Game' feature would be a prime example of something that pausing new content probably won't solve. I can't imagine...
Snark is where people go when they wanna feel big but have nothing of note to say.
I'm on PS5 and I can't remember the last time I had a game crash. Bugs? Yes. No game breaking bugs for a while. When using older DLC for previous...
Agreed. Last year they declared 244k monthly active users across all of their games, down a little on the previous year as you would expect post...
Midland Mainline is one of my favourite routes now. The cargo line packs have been day one purchases, and have actually brought me in to freight...
I think there is an erroneous view that DTG has a pot of money and chooses to spend some on each whereas they could spend it all on one, whereas...
Plenty of conpanies who have some brand loyalty and significant market share do exactly that in order to force the change to the newer product. It...
Of my 650gb of usable capacity, I have TSW4 with 33 dlc installed plus a further 12 other games, 20gb of media, 20gb save games, and I still have...
Same problem on ECML.
I've dealt with Brand Licensing numerous times over the years, though I have no insight into how it works between DTG and rail companies....
Fairly easy on PS5. I've not played TSW on PC so not sure how it works, but on console, it is always the same spot where the 'mouse' pointer is,...
I think the problem is, there isn't necessarily the money is TSW DLC to fund redemption projects. You mostly have to get it right first time....
Not entirely sure how far north the old London Midland region of BR went, but I think it may have covered the BPO route.
there is a whole thread on it here: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/brand-new-mml-secrets.81269/
I would agree with BPO. I've put a lot of hours in to this route, so a lot of the signs I don't need anymore, but off the top of my head, I can't...
It's Rivet's route, so I can't see any prospect of anything being done by anyone other than Rivet. We may wish a lot of love and tlc could be put...
Real life, it would be a toss-up between the Mallard and a Class 91. I used to commute between Grantham and Kings Cross, and then later between...
I just applied a little bit of brake to stop the train gaining speed. The speed control will give the loco as much power as is needed in order to...
Whilst I don't disagree that this route needs a complete overhaul, and probably an extension, it would be done by Rivet so what's the point? It...
Not sure why I haven't noticed it before, but I was trying "back and forth" again, and I think I've noticed the problem. All the stations are...
I don't know how TSW sims it, but using only the front cab, the MML 43 does accelerate up to speed as I would expect and you can keep to the...
I just managed to retry it, and again only managed Gold (with an even worse score than I got the first time). You need 15,500 for platinum....
Yup. That sounds like PS5. This is the only game where my settings don't just save and stay the same. I've given up and now leave the speed on...
PS5 here, and no, I only got a gold too. Last time I had a go, it bugged on me and I couldn't complete it, but I might have another go later as it...
Torpedo cars are used in the UK, but only usually within the steel works. When I worked at the Scunthorpe Steel Works, they never left our site...
So far, this looks excellent, and the route feels incredibly alive and busy. It was already fairly active, but feels even better. PS5 pic below....
They are managing to improve the route, and continue to monetise it through the freight add-ons. This should absolutely be the model going...
I just drive slower in the snow. I drive at 5 or 10 mph faster than the next ATC speed down from where I am. This means I can slow to below that...
But then what is the point? It isn't about offence, it is about being effective. If we insult, we will just be ignored, and they would be right...
Actually, I think at times DTG'S problem is that they are the opposite of lazy, and they set themself unrealistic goals, which then leads to poor...
I've spent more than that on TSW in the past year. As long as it is an option and not the only way to pay, I have no issue. I probably wouldn't...
Indeed. In snow, I aim to be nearer the next ATC speed down. I look out for track speed changes and drop to that speed ahead of time. I arrive...
I've done a number of runs in the snow, and the trick seems to be to slow it down, and anticipate speed reductions. There seems to be enough slack...
I run through journey mode first, as it is a good way of experiencing what a route has to offer. Once that is done, I do the timetable.
Journey 1 of the 'Harder Than You Think" chapter in journey mode: Train 38 NY Penn - Babylon. I turned my wipers on upon exiting the tunnel and...
I've just gone back and tried it out again, and I can see what people mean about the tunnels. I had genuinely not really noticed it before, but it...
I'm on PS5, not PS4, so my experience isn't going to be directly comparable, but given no PS4 users have replied, I thought it might be better...
Yep, and that's why I've stopped buying Rivet, but will buy all Skyhook's releases on day one.
For those who are struggling with the safety systems, I was too a couple of hours ago, but it does get easier. My biggest problem is muscle...
I've never noticed an issue with the 158 through Stoke Tunnel. Sounds perfectly fine to me.
In the route introduction, on PS5, I struggled to walk down the platform to the front of the train at Long Beach. I kept hitting collisions, but...
That is an issue with PlayStation and not DTG, and there isn't anything DTG can do about it. Honestly, when deciding whether or not to pay...
It is one of my favourites too. The variety available on this route is possibly the widest in game. Nice length route, good variety of rolling...
I've always mostly stuck to UK routes, mostly because I like to use safety systems and understand the British systems and I don't have huge...
I've been mulling this for a couple of days, because it isn't an easy question to answer with sufficient detail to be helpful for Matt. I think...
I like variety. One of my favourites in game is the 101, simply because there is nothing else like it. The manual gears add another layer to game...
I don't see anybody blaming PC users. I see people asking for a quality product.
I thought that comment was too stupid to deserve a reply.
Console players can't.
Just tried a short one, and had the same problem. I turned on safety systems, dealt with them the whole route. No bonus.
