So I just submitted a refund request for Cardiff. A route this short should really have more detail and quality like Cathcart or Suffragette Line....
I think one issue is that it would have to be something that works the same across all routes like conductor mode. Station staff would only be...
I agree with all these points. I wanted to say the whole Thomas thing is a calculated business decision. Rather than put out content that will...
Ahh but see the adults in the room have decent judgement about how to spend our money. Children have parents who, as long as they can afford it...
The game is a simulator. How do you simulate something that isn’t even real? That would be like if Euro Truck Sim let you drive Optimus Prime and...
They haven’t made a new route yet. It looks like they’re developing one, but I’d say saying they “made” one is not accurate.
That push is not going to come from Focus. Focus is likely what’s squeezing them harder to shorten dev times to decrease costs. They’re only ever...
I’d interpret this as just “rule of fun”. Don’t get me wrong I’m not happy with the arcade-y direction DTG is moving in. But since it’s clear that...
The amount of services and trains isn’t the entire issue. London Commuter has a bigger timetable and also has to model a busy London environment...
Season of reveals put us several months out in terms of releases. In fact I would be pleasantly surprised if time is found to toss in any more...
Not to mention Mildmay is a solo dev so that may take a LONG time compared to other dlc at the same stage of development
This probably belongs in off topic but I do find this topic interesting and I think you make good points. So I’m a social worker and in grad...
The problem isn’t blended braking. In blended braking, the dynamic brake cuts in proportional to what air alone would be doing while backing off...
We have more gamified features. Not more simulation features. Flight Sims and the upcoming ship simulator are leaning more and more into realism....
I feel like this post belongs in the suggestions or off topic threads. This channel is meant for content already in TSW. Hopefully a staff member...
Here's my thing with Gen 8 console support. As routes become more and more graphically and memory intensive, it's going to take DTG more and more...
This was discussed nearly every day in the leadup to LIRR 2 on the Discord. First, if it's not on the roadmap, DTG doesn't have plans to do it....
You should not be holding the train with just the independent brake especially with passengers boarding. It's a passenger train so there's no real...
Holy run on sentence, jeez. That's like 3 sentences in one. Impressive. Anyway, I don't find any trains currently in TSW challenging to drive. As...
Jamie, Pull up that clip!
Ctrl + Enter and Shift + Enter enable all safety systems
It’s complicated though. DTG is a business after all and as much as we would love to see them take some time off and do fixes, they have zero...
Patches have been very rare for recent DLC. I’ve noticed they really only come back to fix crashes or things that have huge widespread complaints....
Have you made support tickets? Unfortunately support tickets are the only reliable way DTG finds out about issues. Even then, they tend to only...
People also need to stop implying that DTG could've bullied MTA out of mandatory safety systems because DB or the UK companies don't require it....
There is a modder in the Train Sim Community community working on a mod bringing the route up to the current day including OHLE and extending it...
It's gonna be a route out of Glasgow, home to Willy's Chocolate Experience.
The difficult part of getting another freight loco is that all of the freight operators besides DB/EWS have denied DTG a license and won't work...
I don't think deep despair is really necessary considering the circumstances. Let's keep this in perspective: it's a game, something we do for...
See my post right above this but basically, yeah it's possible, in theory, but pretty much everything north of Hegewisch is Metra owned so unless...
I made a very detailed suggestion in the suggestions thread for Metra Electric and I would love South Shore, the last of the interurbans. NICTD is...
I'd prefer mountain passes to the midwest. The passes can have some good scenery if done well, and the challenge of maintaining power up a grade...
I may be wrong but I've been told freight doesn't really run on FCL. There is a modder working on a new timetable that fills out the services and...
I think freight cars are fine as there are plenty of photos online of them and there's no interior or sounds to model. Locomotives are the hardest...
Really love the insight and insiders perspective here Matt and appreciate you being transparent with us. It sounds like many of the things the...
I tried the route for 45 minutes then refunded it. Here's the thing. Detail-wise, DTG was at the top of their game on this. The route and scenery...
It doesn't go to Toronto. It just goes between what's already in the route with Toronto as the off map destination. This doesn't lengthen the...
Airlines? This is a train game so there won't be any airlines. As for "a US license", the US is not like most European countries with just one...
I think Simugraph and just the general setup of TSW requires more detail and inputs than TSC. TSC also reuses a lot of sounds and the sounds...
Was this really necessary to say? No one's attacking the amount of DLC you have. and like rennekton said, you already asked this question. No need...
Unfortunately, I think all of our wishes for an underground/subway/metro route are pointless because Matt has said they don't plan on ever doing...
I’m not quite sure what you’re suggesting. Are you suggesting those routes be added to the rush hour package? That isn’t possible. Rush hour was a...
There's a mod which adds a 700 layer to London Commuter
Read the Bernina Line manual. It explains everything regarding changing the type of current.
Another Metra suggestion! Great minds think alike I see! Check out the suggestion I just made for the Metra Electric District w/ NICTD South Shore...
Right? I feel like the only way DTG would agree to that would be if you fronted money or had proof of liquid assets with a signed contract holding...
My suggestion is for the Metra Electric District. Metra's 5th busiest line, the MED is an electrified commuter line operating from downtown...
There's so many assumptions and false comparisons you're making here. 1.) While English may be much more common, having technical conversations...
Yeah the previews used to be informative, learning about the trains, the route, the history...not so much now. Now it's just 20 repeats of "Chat...
I do miss Sam. Not only did he call attention to issues in content and answer questions directly without legal-speak that neither confirms nor...
