I evaluate routes for purchase by three criteria: interesting gameplay, new, diverse rolling stock, and nice scenery. Cane Creek's A+ in the last...
Sam: "This [prolonged and intense player backlash] is the kind of thing that gets the level of attention needed to make some changes." Whose...
Yeah, Sam is what Tom Wolfe dubbed a "flak-catcher" and he carries out a lousy job amazingly well. Respect.
In other words, PPP=PPP (poor prior planning = p***-poor performance)
Insult to injury. First yesterday's announcement, and then having punched us in the face now they spit on us. "Of no interest to existing...
While I understand what Sam is saying - I am not a DTG basher, just disappointed - and I do understand the business realities the firm has to deal...
That is true of absolutely every route with layers. One doesn't get "full use" (in your term) of HMA either without also owning several other...
No, but you have a pretty good idea. If it's the Dodgers or the Berliner Philharmoniker, good performances are a safe bet. The Orioles or the...
But at least on PC it can be fixed with an .ini tweak.
The problem is that when shunting, "front" and "back" don't really exist.
No branches are ever added. DTG don't do route extensions.
In which case, you're still hungry.
It's like cutting out 25% of a mystery novel-- the last 25%
If you don't like the tough, charred steak we served you, don't eat it. Simple.
Rather removes the point of "Rush Hour" to cut out the actual commuter lines!
Except that with at least two of the routes you're buying a pig in a poke. Pre release there's no way to tell whether they're worth buying. A...
I'm probably in the same boat, not as a protest but simply because the castrated route holds zero interest for me. I can run point-to-point under...
What it boils down to is that for me, any future route would have to be hit for six, as judged by the community, before I'd spend money on it.
While I understand what you are saying, and I expect it would be roundly approved by the faculty of Harvard Business School, to my mind short-term...
I voted to delay Dresden only and include the S-Bahn. Why not add London Bridge? Because it was never part of what was originally promised. The...
As to that, the six routes for the next fiscal year were chosen back in Feb-March. Three of them we know, the other three we don't yet.
That, and the staggered release makes the bundle/pass thingy far less appealing, since many players, I believe, like me never, ever buy in...
May as well make it the year 2031. There is never going to be an editor. You can stop holding your breath.
And DTG have really created a cleft stick for the customer. Imagine a player is interested in NEC. Assume further that NEC is released to...
TBH, I think it more likely that DTG's venture-capital backers are insisting on a constant flow of releases, with no slippage in shipping product....
Just buy the bundle, then delete Riesa-Dresden.
Exactly. If when RH was announced two months ago DTG had stated "Three routes for forty bucks, staggered release in September-October," and...
One question, important at least to me: Why why WHY were the airport and Meissen lines cut from Riesa-Dresden??? You've just removed all that...
German DLCs certainly have fallen into a boring rut. Why buy more of the same?
"Want?" Yes. "Deserve?" Do get real.
The decision to nerf Dresden has turned me from a "Buy whole package at launch" customer to "treat Riesa-Dresden like Hamburg-Lubeck" - i.e. wait...
The Dispatcher is a core game function; it goes beyond any one route, or Adam's team's abilitiy to upgrade. Simply put, until the dispatcher, in...
Note also that even if you have a 143 layer, the loco is too slow to keep to the passenger timetable on HMA.
Actually, it does work from the pause menu map, but it doesn't seem to: in other words, you can't see the purple line move, but the switch really...
You have to work fast. No time to dawdle!
Well, that stinks. And up until now I was looking forward to R-D being almost a network.
Don't be silly. Vendors are free to change their prices at will.
Seems logical to me, since some players will simply not be interested in one or two of the routes. There are a fair number of "only German routes"...
I'm still not convinced by the argument that TSW doesn't have better skies/clouds "because of base consoles." Red Dead Redemption 2 has possibly...
Apparently it has been fixed for Cane Creek.
While we're at this: is it true for DB that, if the train or at least the lead wagon is carrying flammable cargo, the loco uses the front rather...
I still have two of them, both from ca. 1970. Had to adapt them to liquid spirit fuel, since the old fuel tabs can't be had any more.
Could simply be the second loco for West Cornwall.
If you mean this one, [IMG] It belongs to a heritage railway. (Its real registration number is 3361 671-1 D-AVOLL)
Incidentally, in blue it wouldn't be a 363, but a 260/261 - it wasn't reclassed and renumbered as a Kleinlok until 1987, the same year Orientrot...
Or just always playing in Clear weather.
Do any still exist in old Ozeanblau, other than a couple in museums? I thought that by now they were all in Verkehrsrot, when not in private...
Red/Blue: No "freight/passenger" distinction; it's an era distinction. 1954-mid-70s all DB shunters were dark red.* Mid-1970s all DB locos were...
As far as I can tell, TSW does not model, visually, the wagon brake timing handles in different positions: they are fixed visual assets like the...
