You do realize that's how businesses survive right? The 70 and 80 year olds on here won't last forever.

Well, figure out what you want and wait on sales. It's not going anywhere =-)

Children into train games isn't the intended audience? Where else would they go? If someone brought their kid into your local hobby shop, would...

I don't get the "outrage" at it. It's just good business. All those kids are future TSW customers (well present customers if they have to get...

Not sure why there's so much "disappointment." I'm actually impressed. I figured you wanted to do this all along, but didn't figure you'd be able...

I'd guess quite a few on their parents accounts... and more if they can get new kiddies in based on marketing tie-in. Surprised we haven't seen...

A few things depend on other things, but to be fair there's quite a bit that layers into WSR, even if it's only a few miles long it's a very...

Someone didn't hit the wash rack after maneuvers. Who is that troops' First Sergeant?

Saying the word "railtour" is enough to set some people off around here. =-)

Well that makes it a good choice for TSW then at least. Just like the military and aggregate packs. I think they're a good addition, and cheap...

There's more places to use cargo cars than there are 55s in the game. Rolling stock is everywhere. I can't even point to a single existing route...

You don't NEED anything. But if you want layers: https://train-sim-world.fandom.com/wiki/Layers_and_substitutions

Yup. That's the whole idea.

Anyone that says "well I" is anecdotal. You don't have to agree. That's fine. However, if you don't agree with what makes sense, then you need to...

Less revenue is not more revenue. You have finite resources.

To be fair, "casual" is the vast majority of the playerbase.

Now that would be BEAUTIFUL. But sadly I don't think so? Unless it's a third party we don't know about yet.

They just had fanfare for "route hopping" and said that's the best they could do, so.... sorry =-) Military Cargo Pack is far enough along the...

That's their "thing" though. I never said NO ONE would buy it. Just that DTG focuses on the console player and the 80% majority. Hence they focus...

May just be them trying to avoid having to include a new loco and then increase the price. Not sure there'd be a huge market for the 88. The 68...

No clue. I couldn't tell you what makes this route any different than the last 6 created for Germany and Austria. I'm sure a German might be able...

It's been stated in many different places by different DTG members. When asked why there wasn't more "BR stuff" or "early diesel" or "steam" they...

Wait... you're making the claim. So you have to prove your point. Prove that there are "shareholders" that are "telling them what to do" first.

I guess that's a fair point. Especially if it's a DRS 20 that is going all over the country.

Well if we're right and it's a rolling stock game pack, then not having a new loco makes sense. It's a low-cost, low-investment pack of mostly...

Putting the horse before the cart. Sales are higher for modern routes. Older routes were made before. They just don't get the sales. It sucks...

Oh.... that's not what I thought you meant. I thought you mean keeping a "log book" sort of thing so you can track your "career"... how many...

I really couldn't tell you what shade of blue given the heavy use of filters in "teasers." That does mean that "HAZMAT CARGO PACK" sounds like a...

They exist. Just most players won't buy them. They've done their market research and are making what sells. Before someone says it again, note...

[IMG] This 20 has an overhead warning on it. It's also the same blue. And it's local to a railway museum in Scotland. It's not the exact one...

Nah that'll be tomorrow on the "big day" the 20th. Although I predict fewer pitchforks and much more a tsunami of salt water.

Be nice if "experience points" did anything in the game, but I don't see that happening. That'd require a lot of work and balancing. Lots of work...

Wow, 90% of that you just made up to get angry about it seems. I never said you had to leave the game....just that your opinion wasn't realistic....

Is it 801 or the speed at which an 801 travels? I find that any "fast" train tends to outrun it's rendering in TSW.

To be fair, the expectations are a lot lower for TSC and there's no console players. Those are what creates most of the issues for TSW. But...

You can only be disappointed if you are expecting more than is realistic. You create your own disappointment.

I didn't say it was "bad." I simply said you didn't like that other TSW players like different "less realistic" timetables. Isn't that what you...

They aren't being made by DTG. They are being made by third parties who choose their own projects. The North London line is one guy who just...

I mean it crashes just as often randomly like TSW and has the same stutters, but otherwise TSC seems pretty stable. Then again for me TSW is...

The problem with TSW is that most of the players don't agree with you?

Which is exactly what a December roadmap would say...which is what this is replacing for a festive theme. So I'm not shocked you're not shocked.

What thread doesn't?

I mean....MBTA came out 1 month ago so it's not like it's been "forever." It JUST came out. Matt I think is working on Clinchfield. Dresden...

Must be new. Don't recall a huge tutorial. There was an optional one to get the first DE2 and optional ones after that. All you need is the DE 2...

Yes, the S series is getting rather old now.

People do get excited for a slightly different EMU with a headlight changed so.... you're not wrong. That does count as "exciting" to some people.

It could happen. I don't think it would count as "super exciting." More of a QOL update for TSW 6 like track shadow improvements.

To be fair I'm kinda burned out on Cajon Pass at the moment, but new rolling stock is always nice. Always liked the ATSF from a historical standpoint.

I've heard Aberdeen-Inverness is a beautiful route.

"Only" 250kph? Would you even be able to tell the difference between 250 and 280 by riding in it?
