I agree with this, Just Trains have set a new yardstick. I wonder how much they've spent on it though? Will they actually make their money back? I...
I said the route length, including the area it covers, was probably baked months ago, not the work on the route (as it is) itself.
I'm 99.999999999% sure they've got one. Most software houses don't share them with customers (rightly or wrongly), not least because it's full of...
Did I say otherwise? (Checks) No.
TKessel You're making the classic mistake of acknowledging a broader problem and then denying that it exists for your pet example. Of course DTG...
@Dinosbacsi The danger of selectively quoting is that you can take things out of context, like you just did.
TKessel Buyer beware. If it's not fit for purpose, you might have legal recourse.
@Dinosbacsi There are ways and there are ways. And I never once said that people don't have a right to report problems or complain.
If you're worried about DTG 'conning' you yet again (you really need to have a word with yourself), then wait, watch the early YouTube stuff, read...
How do you know that? (That it's all just fluff)
The thing people don't get (commercial people in the software industry are the worst): the more you develop, the more there is to maintain but,...
I'd argue that Birmingham XCity is pretty good and Brighton, for all its quirks, is a fun route to drive. But, yes, Blackpool and Niddertalbahn...
TKessel I'm pretty confident that DTG know they mess things up but I'm also pretty confident that they try to improve as a result (it's...
In what you've just 'asked for', you've underscored what a nightmare managing a development backlog actually is!
Of course, report your problems. But repeating yourself won't help (it just creates a lot of noise for everyone else) and some of the, quite...
A serious question: have you ever worked at a software development house? I have (for over 30 years) and, believe me, it can be immensely...
Are DTG perfect? Nope. Can/Should they learn from their past decisions? Yep. But constantly repeating how rubbish they are generates a lot of heat...
My point is that people in software (producers, designers, managers, developers - designers don't make decisions in a vacuum btw) don't generally...
The route length was almost certainly baked in months ago, so it's not worth getting depressed about. It's also a waste of everyone's time going...
If only all the software geniuses on this forum would get jobs in software development, the world would be perfect!
