Just cause it's not the horseshoe curve doesn't mean it's not a good route. It has a really steep grade, which should be a nice challenge, and we...
No, the horseshoe curve is on the Harrisburg-Pittsburgh mainline in Pennsylvania. Sand Patch Grade runs from Cumberland, MD to Connellsville, PA
Will the timetable services be identical on PC and console, including the new switching services? Thanks and i think it looks great so far- can't...
This COULD potentially make a big difference- the skies in TSW are awful and make everything else look worse IMO.
Looking good. As an Xbox player i'm really looking forward to Sandpatch. Most of the NA freight in TSW2020 is either ancillary (Penninsula...
Totally agree with AP/Mastery being pointless, along with, honestly, the whole XP and leveling system. I feel like all of that could be scrapped...
Totally agree regarding end points. They should have either gone: NYP/West Side yard to points North/East or Sunnyside/NYP to points South/West...
Ahhh i always forget you can run CL47 on ECW.
So does AWS work on NTP even if turned on in the cab? I just did a CL47 run the other night from Manchester to Standedge Tunnel before i got...
Thanks for posting this.
So i just ran through Miles Platting last night on Xbox 1 X, (CL47x1 loaded oil service) and while it didn't crash, there was defintely some...
I've completed this scenario with no issues. Sounds like you've tried just about everything, so you might just have to restart unfortunately....
Good info- maybe i got mixed up on that, or there was a bug. I will try again tonight and see what happens.
Quite like it so far. Looks and sounds great. A few small issues, but no major bugs that i've encountered. The "Rail Freight" scenario has you...
Strongly agree!!
Plastic Pal you make a lot of good points there. The in-game documentation is woeful- i think they'd really benefit from having a technical...
I like that i can have AI traffic without having to fuss with the game too much. Yes, it can get repetitive to some degree (which i think can be...
Dinosbacsi sorry, my comments weren't aimed at you in particular, it's just something that's used way too much in gaming discussions IMO. Totally...
I think the "lazy developer" trope needs to be permanently retired. It's brought out every time there's a bug, missing requested feature, UI...
Who knows, really? Different games do these roadmaps in different ways- could be a lot of detail over a shorter timeframe (say, a year), or a...
They mentioned making objectives more clear as a feature in TSW2- it's sorely needed in some cases like this. It's weird though because some are...
I mean obviously there will be more content down the line- DLC is the basis of the whole revenue model. I realize we shouldn't expect them to...
I will be buying day 1. It's 2.5 routes (HH is new for me on Xbox, but i've already paid for it in original TSW, so i'm splitting the difference...
NY-Trenton would be 58 miles, which seems to be in the ballpark for route length, and you could also have Amtrak NE Regional and NJT Commuter...
I'd argue console players should automatically get a discount on TSW2 seeing as how we've already paid full price for a game that's been missing...
Well, i have to say i'm pretty excited about this announcement. I play on Xbox and am a big US Freight fan so having Sand Patch finally...
Since the PC thread should cover most glaring bugs/needed fixes , i'll stick to something Xbox-specific: I'd like to see an Xbox One X...
Fair point, and since GWE seems to be abandoned, ECW would be the only choice. Not really familiar with the 313, is it an EMU?
Looking forward to this, especially with additional services. I think TVL has become my fave UK route- it was too empty at launch, but has been...
To play devil's advocate, we've already seen 3rd party content (DB BR 204)- without a publicly released editor. If i was a betting man (which i'm...
Late to the party, but finally got to fire up the 204 last night- i quite like it, the sounds are great and it's fun to drive. The scenery at the...
This is good detective work!
But this ISN'T a AAA title, and that's the whole problem. GTA, COD, et al. sell millions and milliions of copies (plus microtransactions and...
I'd be cool with an LIRR MP15, but i'm really hoping if they go back to LIRR after all this time they release a more substantial package akin to...
I really hope so- it would be a great enhancement to the game.
That actually lines up quite nicely with pay day lol
You can only use it on the NEC New York route. Select that route, select "Timetable", then pick the GP40 from the list. Have fun!
Agree with your analysis in general, but i think it's more a question of resources (time and financial) than desire. I'm hoping that 3rd parties...
I'm the opposite wherein i'm great at starting games, but terrible at finishing them. Of all the games i played last year, I think Resident Evil 2...
This is a fair point- was out of the sim scene for quite a number of years, so didn't realize there was a "golden age" so to speak. My bad...
synthetic.angel Callum B. You both make good and well reasoned points here about maintainability of the code base, and I agree it could be a...
Looking forward to this add-on greatly, though a bit disappointing that there's no new rolling stock added. Even color/livery variations of the...
Sometimes i'll ride a train as background while i'm reading stuff on my phone, but yeah otherwise i'm saying, "let me out" before the first stop lol.
This made me laugh only because that Miami route is one of my biggest TS regrets. Looked like it would be cool, but i just remember it being miles...
synthetic.angel Some good points here for sure. I'm not totally surprised about the PS4 GPU load optimization- i mean that's the entire point...
I'm encouraged that they're at least thinking about it, and i imagine that merging the timetable and signalling IS a challenging task. Also an...
ProfCreeptonius Very good points, and i think it proves what you are saying when i think about what i value in the game. I also would like to...
I agree, generally speaking, but also just think it's a problem endemic to the legacy revenue model of train sims. "Nobody is rushing them?",...
Have you tried gamerdvr.com? It has some annoying ads, but you can share clips from there.
DTG are you kidding me with this???? Thanks for the quick reply and uploading these.
