And for the first year of TSW2 there was a distinct lack of new American routes while the high speed craze was in effect. Fact is some things have...
When it comes to future steam content I think DTG might be planning on having third parties doing most of the work in the future. We've already...
I would not be surprised to see DX12 at some point, but I don't think it will happen for a while. It would need to drop support for older versions...
Why would 9th gen sales cause them to go to a new engine when they already support them just fine under the UE4 based TSW2? If anything 9th gen...
How many K-27's were present really doesn't suggest when all the screenshots only show one so far. Once we start seeing pics with three or four of...
One problem with the idea, how exactly would water and coal stops be handled on a route like NTP which lacks them?
A lot of the bigger engines were in fact newer and had quality of life features older, and typically smaller engines lacked. So yeah, the idea...
Honestly the main takeaway for me is it confirms my fears about it, the trackage might be there, but there's so much scenery that would need to be...
So you tell LeadCatcher to not participate in threads he doesn't like, but yet you're partaking in a thread you clearly don't like. Why should...
Redoing the track textures really isn't difficult, modders have been able to make similar changes within a few minutes. Building a new car or loco...
The AI needs a loco to do so, and whatever loco it needs has to be one that the player also has. DTG haven't done AI only locos, and I doubt...
Game devs do that all the time, so do sim devs, IL-2's producer likes to post weird cryptic messages just to get people speculating, and DCS like...
Why the hell would it be done by the AI? They're gonna have to use engines the player has to do shunting, there's no reason for them to be AI only.
It really depends on the loco, the UP SD70ACe isn't a bad option to have, as it appears in real life in the area, albeit rarely. But the CRR SD40...
Keep in mind this route was planned to be in 1955 initially, any thing they've got planned for it was decided upon with that in mind. A 40 & 20...
I don't get this, any diesel DLC locos that are done for the route surely would be stuff that would've been in service at the same time as the...
My argument isn't whether they should or shouldn't do shunting activities, indeed there's a lot of potential there. But why would DTG rehash the...
But would that scope make sense for what would likely be a freebie engine? I don't see DTG doing a entire dedicated Class 08 DLC when they've...
The Class 08//09 would be a really lame choice, there's already four routes it's available in, if you want to try out a 08 most players probably...
I would not mind a extension to it, but honestly I have zero interest in it going any further forward in time. I'm not a massive fan of the super...
That's because the HUD isn't telling you what setting it's at, it's only telling you which direction you're spinning it. You have to use the in...
If DTG were vehemently opposed to everything but the most unique locomotives for TSW that would be one thing. But that's clearly not the case when...
Most who argue against it being simulator say so because they want it to be much more realistic, and thus become a sim by their definition. I...
$20 at the minimum for one DLC isn't a "cheapass price" like you think it is, that's the cost of most games season passes. Even if we're just...
Most likely a DB BR 52, which is a very well known and common German steam locomotive. So common in fact that if you asked a German to draw a...
I have no clue what route it will be, but I'm gonna say that something close to Riviera or Somerset in length is likely. I don't see them doing...
We've heard DTG mention more than once that even variants of existing locos are pretty much the same as new stock in terms of resources. They're...
True, but lets be honest, with how long its been since TSW launch and all this talk from DTG about how much steam needs to be improved they really...
If DTG can publish the FGW livery at all it could just be added to the GWR route, with no need for the creator club.
People find ETS2 relaxing, and honestly you have to pay more attention with that than any of the locos in TSW2, besides maybe the German units...
So you'd much rather see people complain about route they haven't played? Well ok... I hate LIRR, it's the worst route I've never played, sure...
No reason to think that any routes in the immediate future will have any special support though, after all, Spirit of Steam's not happening until...
The Acela's a shoe-in for sure, but otherwise I wouldn't expect much more tilting trains beyond that within the next year. Keep in mind we've got...
It really doesn't seem like travel time factors into their decisions, I've never heard anyone ever say on stream it's a factor. In fact there was...
I know of and have the 1975 version off the workshop, but I've never heard of a steam era version of the route, do you know what it's called and...
The big problem I have with the version in TS Classic is that operationally it seems limited with the lack of decent sized yards along the line,...
While that would be cool, there's exactly a snowman's chance in hell that them, or anyone else for that matter, would offer anything of the sort...
Even addon makers who aim for extremely high detail like PMDG have ways for newer players to get in the sky quickly at this point. Suggesting the...
You say that like that was a issue I was specifically raising, but all I talked about was the timetables and scenario side of things. I didn't...
The preserved crew have made new and reworked timetables, and they're free updates, it's hardly unreasonable to think they could do that again...
That's horrible logic, you shouldn't paywall something just because a user's system can't handle, least you want your graphics settings become a...
My understanding's that the way MSFS and X-Plane do flight models are different, but ultimately they pretty much accomplish the same end goal, and...
To me the take away from that is that swapping out routes every year or two adds a lot of unneeded junk that could be tossed out if we just...
The way Journey Mode's done doesn't have that random factor you mention though. You have a list you pick from whatever you want to do on the...
I always use the DLC folder and they work just fine, and that's what I tend to see recommended in most readmes. They could work fine if you put...
By your logic so is trucking, that used packaging job and that milk job you took with your truck aren't nessicary related to each other. However...
You can fix a hundred small issues in the time it takes to fix one big one. Fact is it really wouldn't be hard to have a option in the menu to...
It's also not realistic to have a full arsenal of aircraft and trains you can just pick from out the gate and go anywhere in the world. In that...
Really outside of LGV and part of SEHS I don't really think the amount of detail changes much. Unless you're going at 100+ you can still get a...
It wouldn't give them more flexibility, in fact it would probably do the opposite thing, having the roadmaps gives them a free space that they can...
