Until Gen 8 stops bringing in sufficient cash to warrant its inclusion, they'll keep supporting it.
Would be nice, but perhaps too retro for DTG and too many handles for the masses. ;)
I'm sad to say they've made few, if any, enhancements for any platform in nearly 8 years of TSW, so I wouldn't hold your breath.
If you were to splash out on a 4090 and choose only the best components, plus a top-notch monitor then sure, you could make 4000...
This route is a panacea to the WCML(S) train wreck. It is worth on its own the price of admission to TSW5, and as Vern pointed out, should have...
You can get *a* rig, but it should be at least as performant as a console and at it's something to build on. You also unlock control over TSW to...
It's all about the immersion, each route having it's own characteristics and flavour. WCML South should be choc-a-bloc with traffic, pulling you...
There is absolutely no excuse for a cut down OG timetable, except perhaps for Gen 8/Series S. Just about any modern PC could deal with the...
Fingers crossed, the Pro boost mode should lift the worst offenders like London to Brighton with all layers during rush hour at least into the...
C’mon folks, no bickering otherwise Harry might get trigger-happy and close this “new” WCML moaning thread down. I suggest handbags at ten paces. ;)
The extra horsepower will hopefully reduce some of the PS5 choppiness on newer TSW routes, but don’t expect miracles. The other fly in the...
That’s what they said when Gen 9 arrived, but when the real Gen 9-only games appeared it brought them to their knees. On the PS5 Pro you’ll get...
Alex can't really slag off DTG partners in his professional capacity, but he has at least had the grace to show some honesty on Discord which is...
Looks like Frankfurt-Fulda will be the last, best hope for keeping the preorder. The German routes are usually of a high quality so looking...
Honest of Alex (thank you), but it really just confirms what we all suspected anyway. WCML is not all bad, but Rivet need to get their finger out...
I would also like to know this. If in reality it’s 4 trains/hour in each direction but only 65 services in TSW, that’s a pretty sorry excuse of a...
It probably means R***t were involved, but they didn’t want to actually state it due to unpopularity. Yet in another sentence they say “in the...
If I really were seeking counsel from a gazer of crystal balls, I would probably agree with you! I usually like to get my point across with a...
Tick-tock, tick-tock, Tuesday 10th and still no word about WCML remedial work. My fortune teller confided to me last night: "Beware a tall dark...
One of the amphibians that live in the celebrated Forest of Cornwall?
Talking of which, an opportune visit to Doncaster Works in April '83 enabled me to capture this fellow for posterity. As far as I am aware it had...
Some of the earlier maps in ETS2 are pretty poor, but of the more recent, Iberia is my personal favourite. I have to say ATS is a much more...
If that's all the variety we have to behold these days on station platforms, I am so glad I'm not a gen Z. ;)
Now to be fair, R***t are at their best with the Swiss narrow gauge routes, and I deliberately took a trip on Bernina Line this morning just to...
Only *just* behind 46241 but not too bad for an overweight underpowered 2000 hp diesel (that whistles).
I quite enjoyed "Steady" Eddie's contribution to the stream, especially when he was keeping Matt on point. Nice job fella!
Thank you JD for the update. I honestly don't think anybody expects the big issues to be fixed day one, but a commitment to address the...
Yeah I couldn't resist TSW4 because I was seduced by all the core updates, but the radio silence from DTG regarding (most of) the big WCML...
And I thought I was impulsive lol ;) DTG have now just 6 days to convince me the deluxe preorder is worth keeping. Who the hell do I think I am?...
The fact the SB line is now seen to be a reasonable standard of quality, by comparison WCML has become a facepalm meme. Chances are the German...
The floating cars look amateurish but the shadows will probably be able to be dialled out on PC with Jetwash’s mods (lod tweaks and improved...
Bring back Sam.
Even the cleaners these days are called Senior Vice President of Hygiene Management, or similar. If guess if that makes the person feel important...
That is just disturbing.
Money talks, even gen 8 money.
Interesting that the OP uses the word Massive. Massive Entertainment (owned by Ubisoft) develop the SnowDrop engine which, if recent releases are...
I was about to comment upon how wise a statement this was based on personal life experience, but was disappointed to find it was bovine-related....
My interpretation of the fact it's not in the FAQ is that it's one of the things they're currently looking at. The OG services are after all one...
For PC players all chapters can be unlocked with this setting in the "Documents\My Games\TrainSimWorld4\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\engine.ini":...
These days DTG only showcase the content using PC as it's probably the easiest to set up for streaming. Saying that, I think they stream in 1080p...
For full immersion I shall spawn on foot at Euston and wait patiently 90 minutes for a 710 service to enjoy the realistic timetable. /irony
Be careful what you wish for. My recollections of Series X on TSW4 are of an overall very smooth gameplay experience, even on taxing routes. Over...
In a way, DTG has become a victim of its own success. One has the impression the company has grown perhaps too much, and it needs to churn them...
That’s fine, timetable mode is also there also I guess, just me being lazy. ;)
Love journeys, spend 99% of my time in this mode. One route that was disappointing was Niddertalbahn which didn’t have enough journeys, but in...
Here's hoping the German route is of a better quality, don't really care too much TBH about the US commuter effort (Antelope II). Still hanging to...
It seems DTG have simply lost the will to improve the core (okay after 8 years they finally updated the map). TSW in 2024 has apparently become a...
I’m not a financial expert but does Focus’ acquisition of Dovetail mean more pockets to be lined with the profits, which in turn means less margin...
I haven’t *yet* decided on a refund, it all depends on DTG. I would like to see a little more honesty, transparency, and engagement with the...
The PC version would have Alex in tears with the lack of shader precompilation, the pronounced UE4 traversal stutter, and the almost complete...
Separate names with a comma.
