Ah, wouldn't it just. I have this recurring dream ( nightmare ) that TSW is headed towards a completely electric future, at least in Germany and...
Relax! It's only been a year and a bit since rush hour passengers were due to be added to BML. And it can't be much more than that since SFJ and...
Maybe, but I doubt very much that the elimination of the pre-order discount was done in the interest of fairness. If it was, why not announce that...
Yes, but it's really a combination of route length, quality of scenery, locos and rolling stock and gameplay/ number of services. So a short...
It's a constant problem on the forums. Posters voicing their own opinions, yet claiming to speak for everyone, using words like " we " and " all...
Me too. I used to watch the streams regularly when DTG Protagonist would hold everyone's feet to the fire. In those days, they were genuinely...
I like Oakville a lot, even though it's still an unfinished route with so much untapped potential and still awaiting a patch. But what really...
This dlc looks interesting. I mean it's full of red boxes, but at least they're older red boxes, which are a bit more engaging. And the driving...
Have to say, all Sharon E's shots look OK and perfectly acceptable to my eyes. I just don't see the issue here. Probably down to settings or mods.
Regarding " Loading last checkpoint ": I had actually asked this question back in June, 2021, so you are correct, Chief, though I was really...
I know what it is. I was looking for a more informative answer. And it was in all iterations of TSW, up to and including TSW2.
It is hauling something though, or are they just empty cars? And it is ubiquitous, at least on the services I've run. So, I wouldn't consider it...
How did they work? Were they related to the save game function somehow? I would like them back, they were useful sometimes when you accidentally...
If I ruled the world, I would change the name of this sub-forum to " General Discussion " rather than close it completely. There are and have...
In 2021, " Rush Hour " arrived with enormous fanfare. As it turned out, one of the three Rush Hour routes never got the passenger numbers promised...
I decided to run that service to check my performance. Leaving Victoria: 46-48 fps. Passing Battersea: 54-56 fps Leaving Clapham Jctn: 60 fps Held...
I find it amusing that the offending word is actually an American slang expression with several meanings, most of which are not really that vulgar...
Of the routes you don't have, OldVern, the one I would recommend is HSC, which I bought when it launched. I just recently started to run it and...
They certainly should. There's more than one route that could use improved signal visibility. I'm thinking specifically of Cajon Pass, but there...
Actually, I wasn't joking about the birds. They really should be in the game. Maybe they're hard to model. But yes, ambient wildlife is fine,...
No, it tells your story not the whole story. That may well be true, but that's not the same as players' experience on their home machines....
Just ran 1W02 to Brighton via Gatwick. Played with nary a stutter, very stable 60fps, Folks, I sympathise with those who have difficulty with BML...
OK, I surrender. Bring on the cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters and guinea pigs, what have you. Oh and would you give all those cats a litter box,...
And what makes it difficult to analyze is that, if 1000 people are playing the same route at the same time, there will be 1000 different...
No, we don't all have " generally bad performance " and " massive stuttering ". Some do, to be sure, but you are really only speaking for yourself.
The route itself runs near- perfectly on my admittedly pretty high- end machine. Little to no stuttering or hanging and a consistent 60fps...
Yes, these are the important issues for me, much more than the quality of the road traffic, which is never great in TSW anyway. I'm bothered by...
Well, if cats are the reason you bought the route, I'm pretty sure you could have picked up a real one for $40 or less. :D Don't you think that...
I haven't popped for this route yet. I've read the " bug " thread and there do seem to be a myriad of issues, perhaps revealing a big problem with...
I believe it's " storm in a teacup " or " tempest in a teapot ". ;)
No need for a new thread. We don't need donkeys in the route ( any route ). Or cats, colored cattle, green dinosaurs etc. In fact let's get rid...
I've had HSC for quite a while, but I'm just getting into it. While it doesn't compare with the TSC version in terms of locos and rolling stock,...
She's a very tall cat, in relation to her surroundings. What are they feeding these animals?
DTG face a difficult choice. They cannot delay a release indefinitely, because lots of players would be upset if that happened. So, if there are...
I agree. It seems that spawning and animating road traffic accurately is just too difficult with the current tools. I can't think of a single...
I recall a couple of scenarios in TSC when someone pulled the comm. cord and the train made an emergency stop. But they were purely narrative,...
All of the American freight routes offer some great gameplay. I personally would recommend Cajon Pass and Sand Patch Grade. I'm currently...
No, not to worry, OldVern, there is a largish team whose only job is to design collectibles like fluffy dinosaurs, donkeys, colored steers??, and...
Yes, last year I thought Rush Hour traffic and passengers were " the wave of the future " Now I realize that " Rush Hour " is a thing of the past....
Yes, I'm doing the same thing, at least for a while until some of the bugs mentioned are fixed. If they're not, I'll wait for a sale next year....
Yes, because that's how consumer prices generally trend., and people are used to small price rises from time to time. It actually doesn't matter...
I think a modest price increase every couple of years since TSW was launched would have been more palatable than the sudden 33% increase in the US...
Can we assume, then, that " Rush Hour " hasn't reached Birmingham yet. Yet another route to add to BML and Harlem etc., missing that feature,...
I vaguely recall something about not being able to record real announcements due to copyright issues at certain stations, though there are some...
Right. Well, it should have been there anyway because, like many players, I like to go walk-about ( or should I say fly-about ) when playing a...
Your spelling is improving. Keep it up! :D
I'll be looking for your review in a day or two. Positive or negative, might knock me off the fence one side or the other. " Heavy is the head...
:D Unfortunately, I'm rather fond of expensive wines, the price of which I never, ever complain about. :D
From players' initial reactions to the route, I'm almost tempted. If only there was one more train, perhaps a 1st or 2nd gen diesel stopping...
