Uh... what? If DTG is pitching this as a single-route poco pack, than only existing Pennines owners would be buying it. There are similar loco...
Yep, DTG already confirmed this.
Alright, some random speculation on the new DLC. -"Freight will come with loco pack"- not... a great sign, but that's beside the point. I think...
Wait, it's an add-on? I missed that. Still feel like the freight should have come with it out of the box, but that's still ok, I guess.
This is quite possibly the best communication with DTG we've had so far!
Alright, false alarm then. No more major complaints on the route, especially from someone who is not from Northern England and thus barely cares...
Nobody said they're going for a December release, though- it could very easily release closer to January. If we don't get more rolling stock by...
Not necessarily... in WSR, there were similar problems in the class 47, but someone pointed them out and they were fixed. I know these require a...
Please tell me they can model a freight wagon or two in the next few months... it isn't too late, is it?
Wow, this looks great! I did not expect this... I'll certainly take it! Already a nice rolling stock selection! EDIT: Actually, I might take that...
Ah, good point. I like the idea, I take that back.
I kinda meant beyond both routes- not much point in combining the two when you can't drive for any longer. AI LIRR or Amtrak could fill this...
Unfortunately, I'm afraid the more profitable solution to this has always been to just improve new releases. Supposedly, as the product improves,...
The main problem with longer routes in TSW is the development time- criticize TSW all you want, there is still more detail in TSW routes than in...
I would like this too, but I believe there are licensing issues.
Ah... I think this may not actually be a bug. In US locos, you have to wait about 10 seconds while switching between dynamic brakes and the...
Eh, this stuff might be fixed with the future US loco physics update. Not sure, but there's a chance. Knowing DTG, there an equal chance it won't...
Eh... it's better than RT, that's for sure. Dovetail false advertising stuff should be nothing new at this point, lol- IMO they should just fire...
That took me a minute. I'm with you on this one- ???
No, but it really gosh-darned should- it would be a huge disappointment if it didn't, honestly.
This looks nice! Might not buy it immediately, locos don't offer as much as routes. I'll probably wait a few months for a discount. One small...
The announcement post showed a service transferring from Westside Yards to Penn Station, so it definitely looks like there will be some stock moves.
It looks better than even the other DLC (look at the reflections!), is less linear than other routes, and, based off RSN, probably has less bugs...
Seriously, this is crazy! I hope this stuff gets applied retroactively too, but IDK if that's something DTG would do. At least the next DLC is...
Wow, that's kind of crazy. I haven't heard of this kind of thing happening accidentally so quickly. I might pre-order... I might wait until it's...
While the class 139 is, as Vicky says, "the cutest train I've ever seen," I think this route is a bit short. Unique rolling stock or not, the...
Yeah, both of these are visible in the screenshots and can be found on other TSW routes.
Actually, while the two companies have a close relationship and were once one and the same, NY&A is now owned by Anacostia Rail Holdings, a short...
Exactly. While I do kind of believe that a good, "well-rounded" route should usually have both freight and passenger to appease both...
Ditto with all of the above. Despite all the criticism, TSW at its core is just such a better train simulator than TS1. I can't go back to TS1...
Hm. Gary Dolzall downvoted one of my earlier posts (the one with the two not-really-complaints). That was a fairly big post- lots of stuff in it....
Wow, that's definitely what this sounds like- interesting that we have a fairly obvious hint at a loco DLC long before the base route is released....
Exactly- and Dovetail listening to the community for once is certainly worth the hype! In all seriousness, though- between the increasing route...
I like how we don't have any idea when this route is coming out and have only known about it for a day, and yet half the forum's profile pictures...
Congratulations on the first route proposal for TSW to make it into TSW! Nice work spreading the word on this idea, I know I didn't actively say...
You... do know I was agreeing with you, right?
That's kinda why I said it was a minor flaw. The M7 is great for this, I just have a small tendency towards routes with more types of rolling...
Wait... did DOVETAIL LISTEN TO THE COMMUNITY?! WHAT SORCERY IS THIS?! I'm looking forward to this one- it even includes branches! All the TSW...
Hey, I wasn't too far off on the timing of this! I predicted "October 20th" earlier as the announcement date... looks like I was only a week or...
Digital Draftsman (and, to a lesser extent, Anthony Pecoraco) just won't stop pushing this. We get it, you don't like the game (or you really have...
...I give up.
Sigh... fair enough. It was never the "evidence" I had a problem with, that's fine, but once a thread falls into debating whether TSW and its...
The freight is actually the best part of the DLC. The passenger part is genuinely terrible. It's kind of the opposite from what you'd expect in an...
That's EXACTLY why I'm downvoting! Look, I actually agree with you (I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the lower base price of WSR) but WHY DOES...
Oh boy, this has escalated into a flat-out flame war pretty quickly. This was just supposed to be on useless, baseless speculation. This is why we...
Okay, I figured out what the problem was: I BADLY MESSED UP SOME CALCULATIONS! Predicted release date: NOV. 10 (which would be crazy, as that just...
I don't think the open beta is coming that soon. I'd think around the same time the TSW beta was public, in december. Again, maybe with the next...
You're right, I may have made a mistake somewhere- the time between WSR release and RSN announcement was 34 days. Add that to the RSN release and...
