Think we'll be on TSW31 by then? Maybe TSW36? It's anyone's guess, really.

Yeah, it's not.

This comment didn't age well.

All that aside, they still leave a ton of major issues unfixed. Too bad they are also stooping to a new low with TSW, by selling these mandatory...

They haven't improved after 10 years. Not a big surprise.

Genuinely curious if they pay you well for your efforts then. You are offering quite a unique and valuable service to them. In any case though,...

Already well ahead of you in that regard, as are quite a number of other people from what we can see so far (gotta love that Youtube like/dislike...

Considering how both Dovetail and SCS are privately held, what you are specifically asking for is not available. Sure, you could end it right...

The relevance seems very clear to me. Both types of games survive by people sticking around and buying DLC. More returning customers means more...

I already have. Multiple times now. It has been the entire basis of my point. SCS and Dovetail both make niche vehicle simulator games. Both had a...

That isn't happening though, is it? The whole point of what I have been saying is that SCS's strategies have led to an ever-growing, loyal...

The issues you are pointing out with the truck sim screenshot don't exist. The shadows are correct, and believe me, the fuel tanker looks just...

They quite literally are. They are obscured a bit because of the 3D grass. Look closer. That is a chrome tanker. It's reflecting the sky more...

When Dovetail burns through as many customers as they do, rather than growing their playerbase, yeah I'd say they are less successful than others....

Because comparing completely unrelated companies to a simulator developer is daft. I am comparing two companies who were at very similar standing...

I said more successful peers. As in, other simulator developers who have had more success. I find it hard to believe that I actually need to...

Indeed, the console market could be the only thing keeping Dovetail's head above the water for all we know. SCS has not expanded into that market...

I've seen otherwise from my own experience, and also heard otherwise from others I know who work with UE much more closely than I do. If Dovetail...

What I said was: SCS also goes back to improve older content for free, whereas Dovetail has only been doing so in these full priced re-releases of...

Don't try to pull that. You know as well as anyone else that Dovetail will let major issues sit (let alone the plethora of smaller issues), and...

They are now, thanks to SCS's success that I mentioned. Again, 10 years ago, the player bases were about the same size. You can see this for...

Seems that the reason for that player base difference comes down to the approach these two companies have taken over the past decade. They both...

You say it's flawed but basically just go on to explain why it isn't. Good job? Yes, I have zero intention of buying anything from Dovetail again....

You know what, just in case this was said in good faith, let me explain then. 1) Running with safety systems is more realistic. Hence the word...

I mean, I tend to go into opposing arguments with an open mind. It would have been foolish to go into this debate believing that you are...

Yet another flawed argument. Let's say you don't care about the new routes, or the barebones editors that will likely be quickly forgotten in...

Sorry man but you lost credibility with your argument here. First you act like nothing needs fixed with your air quotes, but then you immediately...

If they want to sell an expansion, fine, but they MUST include the fixes to the old portion of the route for free, or I would not even consider...

Also consider that maybe people don’t like being ripped off by Dovetail. Your company’s business practices put a very quick end to Flight Sim...

Well Dovetail have proven that they don't think like you or I. Existing customers seem to matter extremely little to them. Their focus seems to be...

I suppose we will see. To this end, what are Dovetail's plans when they find the need to re-use locomotives or routes they have previously...

Do you also agree that if these problems are ever going to change, Dovetail needs to be given a monetary motivation to do so by people refusing to...

The QA team isn’t the problem imo. I don’t see anyone here saying they don’t have a QA team. I am seeing people blame them for missing obvious...

You’re wasting your time by reporting bugs. Matt even said on a recent stream that even though they are collecting feedback, they have no plans to...

I also feel it is prudent to point out that on top of the astronomical cost to own all of the content for this game, they continued to sell new...

You are right, I do not want to pay for this new game. We are hearing the same promises for the future that we heard the first time around. I feel...

Sorry, but this still does not explain why it still needs to be a new game entirely. The core features could still be a free update to the...

I'd sooner be interested in them improving one of their existing NY routes, rather than continuing their current trend of releasing new half baked...

Then what is the case? Based on what you have described, and what is known about your server, sounds like Plastic is pretty close. By your own...

Nah, I can tell just by looking at it that they are using the same outdated lighting methods. UE4 supports filmic lighting (aka a much higher...

Because the quality of their work is severely lacking. This extra transparency is great, because it shows how bad of a company DTG truly is....

Comes across as another line of bullshit from Matt. “Oh well we’ve always gone back to improve addons afterwards, but we’ve fallen short on...

My opinion is that Protagonist has every intention of improving the way the company operates. He comes across as a genuinely stand-up guy to me....

Deny it all you want, but they basically said 4 times in a row that this is indeed correct. Sam: Any further work on old content? Matt: No. Sam:...

Hey I only meant that most people can see what they are doing here. An infuriating number of people don't seem to care though...

Eh, it's upgrading to a new version of the same engine. Still some work involved, but not the same as switching engines entirely. Still, it seems...

Well no kidding, I wouldn't be thrilled either if I were in his position. This is not a major new development in train simulation. This is a...

They stated that old routes will not be worked on anymore. They also stated that even though they ARE collecting feedback, they have no plans to...

You watch that stream tonight? They have now confirmed that old routes will not be upgraded in any way. They are collecting feedback on bugs, but...
