It is hardly a big deal, whether or not it was intentional it is leading to discussion, intrigue and some excitement, which for DTG is a good...
I have recently discovered the joy of the German routes and using PZB and the PZB helper is great. Although I keep getting PZB and Sifa mixed up...
Agree with that, I can only think of one person who was banned (twice) and they managed to wind up pretty much everyone on the forum, no matter...
And some would still come on here saying how awful TSW is!
It would be nice if the train you are travelling in had more realistic physics. I wouldn't expect every AI train to have so, though.
I got TSW when the GWE express came out, not being a fan or American freight routes I wasn't interested in the original release. I bought the...
The standard MG Maestro was quicker than the equivalent Golf GTI or Escort XR3i. The turbo was a beast. Mine is just a 1.6 Mayfair but it holds...
Unless you have been hiding under a rock surely you would be aware of all these problems before purchase unless you purchased it straight away I...
BX's were great, you won't find many modern cars with their ride comfort. Modern cars often can't be moved when they go wrong when the "computer...
Hence why I still drive an Austin Maestro, modern cars are souless unless they are particularly sporty! Even those manufacturers like Renault and...
No although they were entering service in reasonably numbers by 1958 they would have been vanishingly rare on this route. Allerton depot which...
Well yes I do agree the type of route or services will make a lot of difference even in a modern route. But the difference in operating different...
This, I feel, (difficulties of the class 101 brakes) surely makes the case for variety in the sim and why it is good to have a mix of old and new,...
Yes it would certainly add some much needed variety and game play if they did so.
And right on cue. Here I am sitting in the cold on Langley Green station as one of these reliable modern trains has broken down and the train...
For me probably LIRR as it doesn't seem busy enough. It wasn't really the immersive, busy commuter route I was expecting.
I am not trying to convince anyone to differ from their interests and I would never try to. I merely would like a simulator which represents as...
Yes I agree with this, I wouldn't expect DTG to abandon its business model. But surely one route out of say five or six being set in the past...
It would be interesting to know what the demographics for model railways/simulators are. I am middle aged but have left model railways behind,...
Well I have never seen anyone say I don't want to drive a class 47 because they used to leak oil in 1990! Also, you are totally misrepresenting...
And what on earth does that matter when making DLC for a simulator? Next time I see a model of a GWR branch line at an exhibition, I shall...
I would say you are wrong, we all have our own different interests, just because you grew up in that era and have no interest in the trains of...
I agree with this, I had the opposite view, that modern trains were boring, I didn't drive them much in TSC but have done more so in TSW, as there...
I have been playing SOS quite a lot and it is a better experience. Although the lack of AI loco sounds are grating. Hopefully they will be fixed...
London Midland you really should be working for DTG/Rivet. Your pack may even attain them more sales as like above your enhancement pack is more...
I haven't delved into the TSW scenario planner yet. I have used the TSC scenario editor a lot and despite it throwing a hissy fit at times you can...
I agree with the points in the opening post. London commuter shows what can be done, for me it is the most immersive TSW UK route and I was...
I was going to get this when I heard that the braking issue was not an issue, however reading the comments I will wait at least to see if any of...
Well yes that is true there are lots of people calling for older routes which is why it is confusing when they apparently aren't popular. But...
Thanks for the reply Matt, on what I know is a busy day. That has made me feel a happier to have some clarification and to hear nothing is ruled...
Well I am only going on what has been interpreted by comments from the "horses mouth" so to speak. I expect the majority of routes to be modern...
If comments by the executive producer are interpreted correctly then we will only be seeing "modern" content from DTG for TSW and looking at the...
So that not only rules out BR diesels/electrics, it also rules out steam as well! It also rules out much of the early privitisation period too!...
Hear, hear, I could handle the lack of BR routes a lot more if we had more variety to the more modern routes. Hopefully the Skyhook route will...
This is just semantics?! For me a full route would be the beginning and end of a service or what would be considered a complete journey or a...
Well I am not a PS user (PC user) but I had already put off pre-ordering it now I think I shall leave it totally for now and see what develops. I...
I am sure I have heard in the past Matt waxing lyrical about BR routes and traction, I might be wrong however. I am sure if they feel that there...
Yes would be very happy with a route like that. And precisely, the sim can be as much a time machine as a representation of todays operations. I...
There is a new sim which does just that. Check out Train Operator 377 on steam.
It would be better than nothing though. I run the AP class 86 and 87's on WCMLS, it is set in the post Pendolino period but once you populate the...
That is a good point. And that seems to be popular, maybe I should buy it to add another one to the sales figures! They say BR doesn't sell but...
Well yes I was thinking more of UK content in particular. I have been driving my German routes quite a bit lately so I see the value in more...
They have several BR trains which were widespread and would cover many routes, the class 31, 37 and 47 in particular and of course we know the...
It makes you wonder what the catalogue of UK based DLC will look like in a few years! Maybe steam will get sidelined and TSW will be basically a...
Unless the demographics of the users differ greatly, if BR doesn't sell why did the recent TSC Huddersfield route come with BR period stock?
I can't see JT or ATS making any period routes either. It is hardly going to be simulator encompassing a wide variety of British tastes if they...
Has he commented on the brakes?
That is extremely disappointing to read. Particularly the no longer considered part. It is four years since we had a BR blue route, I think it is...
I think little details like this can add something to a route and as said are likely done by different artists. They also probably help make the...
Well no I know, but even when he seemed to be less distracted he seemed to use step 3. That is why I decided to see what the likes of Dadrail make...
