I heard the Big Boy reference too, sounded like a leak to me. ;)
An Xbox Series S thing apparently. Although technically it’s a gen 9 console, in terms of overall power it drifts just behind the PS4 Pro, and...
Indeed Series S is another matter completely having less than RAM than its big brother, and it seems DTG will need to make further optimisations....
Perhaps I’m untypical, but I’ve not seen that on either PS5 or XSX.
Is there an online petition somewhere for a BR218? That would be my no1 choice, otherwise steam era. More red boxes would be less appealing.
We all know Sam sold his soul for an RTX 3090, but how do we know what the rest of his PC is like? He could be running a Pentium II for all we know.
31 km? (Facepalm moment) It seems ridiculously short for a TSW route, unless they price it accordingly at say 15€.
DTG would need to enable the mouse in-game and as far as I know there’s no technical reason why they couldn’t, after all it works fine in other...
With LGV, DTG already have a bunch of French assets and obviously some sort of licensing arrangement with the SNCF, so why the heck have we not...
The route is fine despite some still outstanding issues with AWS magnets, but I feel DTG made a mistake by having it based halfway through an...
I distinctly remember not long into the stream the game resolution being changed from 4K to 1080p as the bandwidth was causing major stuttering...
As surprising as it seems despite the apparent lack of progress, this is a trophy route for DTG. A realisation of CEO Paul Jackson’s dream of a...
Yes! This and Quick Resume which is a really useful feature.
This is why I now run gen 9 consoles lol. :D
As a simulator or even simu-game, the biggest disappointment I find with TSW are the physics and the Simugraph elements. These have definitely not...
I fired up TSC the other day out of nostalgic curiosity and realised that despite the amazing creativity of countless folks over the years, I just...
I believe you can only map the Elite paddles to other buttons on the controller.
I actually much prefer US spelling as it makes more sense, but DTG is a British company and this should dictate their choice.
I think the TSC version now goes to Ramsgate and Dover.
Me too, I thought since Rush Hour they had new winter trees. Granted SEHS is pre-RH so maybe it was too big a job to update them. Let’s say then...
I am hoping they will be chucking out a few steam locos and rolling stock DLCs to fill out SoS and give it the variety and traffic it deserves.
I would like to preorder the standard edition outright as I already have SoS, not interested in GamePass. Would be nice to play it 4 days earlier. :(
Are the initials of the symbols perhaps supposed to represent the 3-letter code for each route?
The rain droplet effect on the camera looks good and I sincerely hope that it makes it into the vehicles; the existing effect just looks like...
Have to agree about the Avanti West Coast tortoise clue. A 90 mile WCML route could be on the cards, but which bit?
I seriously hope it’s not high speed ☹️ It would be nice if it were 90 real miles, not whipping by at 300 kmh.
(cough) Sandpatch Grade (cough) PC players bought it again in TSW2.
Let us not forget the updated Bakerloo line, it would not be beyond DTG to pop in an older route. It’s quite possible they added Joe’s timetable,...
Personally I would prefer the reveal on the stream itself, it would give it much more a sense of occasion. Putting it on the web site before will...
I don’t disagree about the bug fixing, but good lord man, if you ever tried a gen 8 version you would not be saying this. On PS4 TSW is poor...
If community managers do streams on an evening it’s surely part of their role and therefore their working hours, so surely they should be allowed...
Luzern was the last piece in the puzzle, I have now classed my TSW DLC (not for the 1st time). On PS5 at least!
Thanks for the heads up buddy, been waiting for Luzern to go on sale.
Wow you guys are hardcore! I sometimes drive without the bottom-right part of the HUD, so relying upon the locomotive instruments for the gauges,...
Just been watching the latest Digital Foundry weekly video, and they mention that Unreal Engine is known for running like a pig on PC. Stuttering...
Looks like this suicide cult has taken a belt and braces approach; if the electrified rails don’t get ‘em, the 13.05 to Queen’s Park definitely will.
TSW looks great on PS5. Between that and PS4 is really like night and day. I also have access to a fast PC and I find the stuttering is worse than...
One indisputable fact we do know - DTG will never drop support for gen 8….. on TSW2, and any DLC purchased will still work on it. Of TSW3, we know...
The one thing I really miss on PC is ETS2 and ATS. Just can’t get ‘em (yet) on console. Those and Transport Fever 2.
I have both consoles and enjoy Battlefield, rally titles and f1 games. I have to say PS5 has way better support for Fanatec wheels. Xbox has...
I am well aware mate, not my first rodeo. ;) The two settings I mentioned have been talked about by Matt in more recent streams. Yet I believe...
I do not see DTG using ray tracing in TSW3, it’s just too expensive in performance terms for the benefit it would bring. Gen 8 should be dropped...
Both good routes but HSC has more happening. DTG dropped the ball with SH by axing track 3, which would have given it a little more variety....
If they have any sense they will remove Mastery for TSW3. For all the man hours spent implementing it, I wonder seriously what real value it adds...
Back to PS5 for now to enjoy PC-like sound. As Talk Talk once sang, Such A Shame!
An example on Series X: from rest, start the Dresden-Cheminitz BR612 at 50% throttle and listen. You will hear a distinctive audio popping every 5...
Great unit and fine update to the route. My 2 top bugs: Cab sway - there seems to be none at all (my setting at 50%) which does detract from the...
Exactly, if TSW3 were gen9/PC only, current gen 8 owners would be more likely to upgrade sooner rather than later.
They didn’t (yet) fix the incorrectly marshalled wagons, but they explained the workaround of releasing the brakes.
Any opinions yet? I honestly daren’t hit the Buy button until I see some positive reviews.
