I don’t totally agree with price being attached to route length. A dense route with multiple stations and cities to build is more work than a wide...
Does the class 710 share anything with the Talent 2? I know they are both Bombardier... every time I look at it I can't shake that they look similar.
Yes. Your purchases are tied to the Playstation store itself, not just to the PS4. If you bought a DLC for TSW on PS4 you will also own the PS5...
Dynamic weather is a fine balance in a game like this I think... most days in real life, the weather never changes much all day... and fi it does...
From what Matt said in the stream that isn't the impression I got... I thought he said that they didn't add any NEW services for it on other...
At the end of the day its going to boil down to: 1. Market - how many people are buying it. 2. Cost/effort to make - how much...
For me, at least currently on TSW4 I get 60fps pretty steady in MOST situations on PS5. Drops to between 30-45 in busier areas or stations but by...
A big thing that changed starting with the 8th gen is both the consoles went to x86 processors instead of their old proprietary stuff (like that...
Occasional stutters on PS5, not so much ECML but for sure SEHS in spots. The odd thing with TSW (on all platforms) is that even when it is...
The argument is that Gen 8 would be holding back Gen 9, since the game has to run on Gen 8. IE that the graphics are dumbed down on Gen 9 or the...
I am not sure how much the Gen 8 is holding back anything else. It is not like TSW runs amazing on Gen 9 and PC as is so that there is room to...
amtraknick1993 I hope you don't mind, but I combined your writeup with some minor modifications and photos of the signals from stephenbabalola01...
Thanks for this thread, I am just getting into the Antelope route now finally so this is very useful information to make it more realistic (and...
You need a college diploma to pick out which Dosto to use, there's so many of them and they all have their own quirks and bugs despite being...
I hope they just change their business model a bit so that the core updates come as a free thing every year. Even if they release it at the same...
Thats what the horn is for.
Another great thing about a Japanese route is it might open up TSW to the entire world of Japanese customers who might not have been interested in...
This. Honestly the biggest problem I have on this forum sometimes is the moaning you hear from individuals when a specific piece of DLC isn't the...
The storefront thing on PC now is so bizarre. I haven’t really played PC games since back in the early 2000s when you had to buy everything in...
Good question. These are the 3 things I have found most challenging. 1. Figuring out PZB and driving the German trains without getting e-braked....
It likely varies based on the company as well. I think some of the license holders don't even want to see their trains dirty/weathered which is...
So recently TSW4 came to Xbox Gamepass... I have Gamepass Ultimate but I already owned TSW4, so it wasn't super relevant that it showed up, but...
I feel like the licensing issue can't be for the whole route and must be for a specific part of it or a specific rolling stock. I don't think...
Trenton was also an extension/expansion of an existing route, granted it was a route you could only play on TSW1.
On the flip side, when I first went to Europe (Denmark/Sweden) we rented a car, because thats just what you do when you want to get around when...
Yeah I am not against the "expert" loco and them costing a bit more but at the same time I don't want to see them start releasing dumbed down ones...
Once you get into more complicated simulation stuff its not a bad idea to plug a keyboard into even a console. Keyboard works with TSW on console....
I just changed the way I play a bit so I was wondering what sort of setups other people use and why. I am a console player so since I got the...
I would imagine that the amount of time and effort to create steam content was not giving them the returns that justify it vs putting those...
Exactly. Marketing for a freight railroad involves massive multi-million dollar businesses and contracts. Their customer are bulk commodity and...
The "world" doesn't literally mean the whole world. It means that when you play the game there is an active world around you, more to do with the...
The licensing they are working on might not be for the MTA/LIRR itself or the M3/M7 that we already have. It could be something specific with...
It is one of the better routes I find, if you are into it's style of game play (all stop commuter EMUs). The 323 in my opinion is one of the best...
I am super interested for this one. I know nothing about Japanese railways but love variety in the game. A few years ago I had absolutely 0...
Haha, yes. Welcome to what got me involved in this forum/community in the first place. In the TSW2 era firing up Sand Patch Grade, not being able...
I do like freight quite a bit. I've played it a lot on all the major regions. US: This is really what got me into TSW. I have hundreds of hours...
Yeah the gameplay on AVL is kind of like a freight route on easy mode. The fundamentals of running it are the same as a US freight route but it is...
Hey Matt, In the stream you mentioned that with the San Bernardino line, there will be mixed consists with the Bombardier and Rotem cars, as...
Most TSW routes aren't set at the exact present day, they focus them on a specific time where they can get the best reference material for...
I will say I’m more of an east coast than west coast fan when it comes to passenger stuff but I am interested in this new Metrolink route. Some...
Yeah I would really love to see LIRR re-done with all the things that have advanced since TSW 2020. It is really such an iconic route in North...
I actually did look into freight railroads locally but when I found out the hours/working arrangements I figured I'll stick to TSW in my spare...
I'd like it but I wouldn't want one that was all in tunnels... I like the Bakerloo route because it has a decent above ground portion.
Except sometimes fixes are super quick, like within days/week of release. Seeing multiple DLCs release for this game it seems like after each...
This might seem like a small thing to some people but its kinda mind blowing that 4 months after TSW4 releases we still only see 801 234 on all...
I feel like this route looks... OK... the scenery is basically accurate as far as the configuration of roads, rails, buildings, tracks, etc... it...
The game runs great on Series X from a performance point of view. I don't have too many crashes or anything. I'd say upgrading from a One X is a...
US/Canadian routes definitely need a "guru". I think DTG actually does a surprisingly good job on them considering all of the devs are on the...
One of the few advantages of the Xbox (and all consoles) is there is one system with one set of components and they know if they can get it...
Yeah… I mean I guess it does give the freedom for people to play a PS4 version of a game instead of the PS5 version but I can’t think of many good...
Separate names with a comma.
