Here's a pretty silly thread for a slow morning when a storm has closed most things down around here. If you were cast away on a desert island,...
It's becoming annoying. Would you guys please spell Brandon's name correctly?
Not worth doing unless they have SEPTA and MARC licenses.
The saga of NYT is a comedy of errors. First it was launched before it was ready for prime time with a laughable timetable, AI issues, platform...
Problem is that you'll end up adding the 390 etc., and giving them just about the same amount of money. They've been very clever about all the...
Good luck! You might meet some folks along the way, there are pedestrians in SPG. I've taken some short walks myself along the route here and there.
Yes. Sam once said something along the lines of the average playtime in TSW was around 20-30 minutes.
That would require DTG to build a dual mode loco and Amfleet cars which they have shown no indication of doing. You can almost understand the...
Do you really think that DTG is going to produce this kind of pie- in- the- sky nonsense for TSW? I know you love to type, but I think you might...
If you want to see regional bias, look at the TSW choices in the US. It's all about the east and west coasts, ignoring the vast rail network in...
I would really like to hear about some actual experiences with this " feature ", because I share OldVern's opinion that this is largely a gimmick...
Yes, this is certainly true of the Metra locos, F40, 59 MP36 and SD70 when standing at stations.
You can see it that way. But the cynic in me thinks that a lot of people who already own Cajon Pass will buy the deluxe package, thinking...
Yes. To me, this " hopping " feature ranks along with the eye- adaptation, bouncy suspension, snow bloom, volumetric fog and other features which...
Well, it might be useful for those that have unlimited play time, but I doubt if I'll use it much since I barely have time to finish one run never...
TSW4 itself suffered from a failure to completely launch. The only redeeming elements were JT's Blackpool Branches and LIRR2 which were post-...
The silence concerning the save game feature is certainly enigmatic on the part of DTG to say the least. Is it still being worked on? Is it not...
For me the interesting aspects of the route are not so much the commuter running, but rather the traffic congestion between South, Back Bay and...
Yes, DTG has utterly failed to maintain the promise of SPG, CRR and other early freight routes. I only half-believe the excuses about access....
That'll be fine with me too ...!
The Boston -Worcester route is really the only thing I'm looking forward to. I do have a passing interest in the GWE remaster because it's one of...
Joethefish says yes!
Oh boy, Joethefish, 3000 miles away and you know how to make my day. Thanks for the info. Something to look forward to.
Take the soccer chat to off topic please. ;)
Deselecting routes is easy for Steam dwellers. You can just untick and retick as you wish. Problem is the lack of a comprehensive layer and sub...
Military is good. Pity it's not the S & D with a Q1 and Spitfires engaging Messerschmitt Bf 109s overhead. ;)
Oh my !! A short commuter route with 1 or 2 one handle emus. How fresh and innovative!! :D
Would like to add my voice to this. Don't know why we can't get a response after a year or more of asking.
Yes, you are by no means alone in your frustration. The only dedicated US freight content that's been confirmed will come from High Iron...
Many thanks.
Can we at least assume that the tracks between South and Back Bay will be populated with Acela and other MBTA commuter trains.
Without CSX freight, what will the old Beacon Yard look like, empty with a single track for commuter trains. And without the Lake Shore Limited...
Yes, if the Worcester line had been in this launch instead of SB, my annoyance might have been somewhat assuaged. As it is I'm not sure how DTG...
Hm. Then how do you account for the plethora of US routes and locos that DTG and its partners built between 2017 and 2022/3?
" Congrats Dovetail. You absolutely nailed it. " Unless you're a fan of US rail of course. We haven't received an invitation to the party.
Exactly what value does the inclusion of Cajon Pass bring to US fans buying the deluxe edition for $75, as most of us probably already own the...
Well I voted no of course. I mean how is a US player supposed to feel. I can't think of any reason to spend money on this mostly empty offering....
It's just........awful! A route we've known about for a year plus a TSW3 route we've been playing for almost 2 years. And not a single new loco....
I do have one question. Does the mention of Raildriver support mean a change in status?
Trying to pick through all the information, but, as of now, see nothing of any substance for US fans. This was kind of expected I guess. Not...
Arguably, the only thing we gained from buying TSW4 was the ability to play Blackpool Branches. The 3 core routes were not compelling in my view...
Well, the day has dawned! Not here in the US of course. It's just dinner time. But somewhere in the world it's August 20th. The coaster has...
Well, I ended up buying Fife Circle in a sale just to see for myself. And, you know what? It's not bad overall. Sure there are scenery deficits,...
Oh dear, where does one begin? US railroads have a long history of working with DTG and its partners. If what you say is true, how do you explain...
Check all the boxes that show a train. Seriously though, am I the only one who thinks that the mods should delete artificially generated posts?...
That might be a valid option if you know which routes are in the TSW5 pipeline and you want them all. But, as stujoy advises, best to wait 24...
Oh, agree absolutely. Been saying that for years. Of course it was the flagship, the first route and DTG clearly wanted to kick start the...
Even if DTG/Steam use the official exchange rate ( currently €1 = $1.10 ), which they usually don't, it would be major league sticker shock for US...
What on earth is the purpose of this thread? We have one short 80 mile section of the ECML. We are years away from seeing any completion of the...
I started with a Commodore 64 back in the early 80's. Cost me $599 as I recall, a small fortune for me in those days. But I didn't use it...
