And the missing helper locos/banking coms.
Well, for once the exchange rate is fair at $29.99. Might give it a whirl.
Ludicrous!! Almost comical! Clinchfield should have been fixed years ago. Such a shame for an otherwise excellent route.
I'm interested and may well jump in to EA. However it's a little strange why, three days before launch, the EA price is still a mystery. " Under...
Two or three years ago, I would have said that TSW had the potential to overtake TSC in terms of content and gameplay. Today, however, TSW is a...
Being early access it ought to be at an attractive price which we should know tomorrow when the dedicated sub- forum comes online. Coincidentally...
I'm on my way to the liquor store. Need to stock up. :D
As there's nothing new on the TSW front, I might give CTS: Tram a whirl next week just to have something different, though I have lots of other...
Yes, a well built route and train but in the end just a short bus ride from SE London to NW London. I did a couple of runs, including the " soccer...
Somewhat related, one of my favorite routes in TSC is G-Trax's Sacramento Northern interurban route. The interurbans represented one of the great...
The big advantage of a gaming laptop is, of course, that you can tote it around on trains, planes and automobiles, play TSW in a hotel room, on...
Ah yes, the 323 reskin. Thanks for the correction.
Yes I've fallen foul of that in the past. An otherwise decent machine but a 400w psu which precludes any major update. Last time I bought a PC I...
Maybe someone can refresh my memory, but haven't one or two mods been integrated into the main game in the past?
The people who voted " good " or " excellent " must have recently arrived from a distant planet. Sure there was lots of diesel loco hauled...
The Class 104 is being made by Simtrack, a 3rd party developer and the release date is unknown at this point. Surely you don't expect a small...
Whereas I have respect for those who create mods, I don't install any myself. I believe that the developer should be the one making improvements...
Yes, it's unfortunate that PC's and their components age so rapidly and that aging seems to be accelerating. My PC is only 4 years old but it...
TSW is rife with missed opportunities. I could talk for hours about what might have been. In fact I think I will. Settle back for an hour or two....
To me those tiny prison cell windshields on many of the UK emus are in themselves a safety hazard. Imagine driving a bus or a car with such a...
No way to list them, because, although there are certainly some with universal bugs, others are due to individual set-up or driver error. Try...
Very well put. My thoughts exactly. As my broken record says: As the market leader, DTG should be building TSW into a complete train simulator,...
It is indeed a " brief look ", about a 15 second read. You'd think someone at DTG could have written a thoughtful, interesting history about the...
Haven't played it for a while, but I recall that you were deducted points for doing something to upset the comfort of passengers and/or the...
Well, now we know the real reason steam is gone from TSW. Nothing technical, nothing economic. Apparently driving steam engines is just not fun....
Yes, very good analysis from Blacknred81. And you're both spot on with SPG still being the paradigm which DTG and partners have been unable to...
Well, it's nice that someone is running damage control for DTG personnel. But actually you're right, someone from DTG did us all a favor by...
Even if that loco turns out to be excellent for German aficionados, " one swallow does not a Summer make ". And DTG is not making that DLC....
Couldn't have put it better myself. Several posters have expressed my thoughts about the June Roadmap and what it said and implied about the...
( my emphasis ) Oh how true!!
I can't believe that DTG and some players are obsessed with a minor distraction like suspension animation. With the abandonment of steam traction,...
If that's what the final version looks like, it's a real leap forward. Actually looks like a cityscape. Now we know it can be done for Glasgow,...
Don't worry, many of us are also impatient for US news. Nothing wrong with that; unfortunately you ran into a buzz saw of DTG apologists. ;)
Good luck with that. Can't help himself I guess. The QA is his favorite thread. I don't know why DTG bother with a Roadmap stream since their...
Don't get me wrong. I still play and enjoy NYT regularly, but it would really enhance that enjoyment if I saw a realistic New York skyline in the...
Well, it comes from reading the Roadmap and seeing a healthy amount of Scottish, English and German content but precious little for North...
Which doesn't make sense because, according to DTG, all the elements of AVL and SB ( routes, locos and rolling stock ) were surveyed...
The revised timetable was a big improvement but there are still some deficits including the inability to integrate freight services, platform...
Actually they are. The Class 1 railroads do have freight train schedules. They may not be as rigid as passenger trains but their major customers...
That's pretty much what I've done in the past, but, given the disappointments with TSW4, I'm going to look carefully at the contents of TSW5 (...
OK, but what loco(s), stock and route references do HIS intend to use that are apparently unavailable to DTG?
Appreciate your thoughtful response. The problem is we US players are completely in the dark. Maybe a little bit of information about this "...
The US has definitely slipped down the pecking order with DTG. There's really very little to look forward to. And I'll believe in those patches...
Scenarios then timetable. Raildriver, mouse and keyboard. About an hour every couple of days. That's it folks. Sorry to bring this up, but am I...
It would be good to know if they are actually still working on the save game feature. We've not heard anything since the basic utility was...
Unfortunately, it would appear from DTG's current business plan that they see the majority of players as demanding only joystick driven electric...
Yes, just ran from Penn to Atlantic via Jamaica in the M9. Really shows the non-linear nature of LIRR which really enhances gameplay.
I'm pretty much convinced that San Bernardino will be the US offering in a 3 route Summer bundle. My understanding is that it's already in the can.
So we should tamp down our expectations of those Roadmap entries labeled " Release Date To Be Announced ", which are pretty much all 3rd party...
