That is my point. DTG went to all the trouble of recording some decent and authentic sounds for the powered cars but completely wasted if you...
Watched the first section of the stream (ICE4) and while respecting the enthusiasm of the developers and no doubt some of the German customer...
Like SOS, with PFR there wasn’t much left to do after finishing the Journey mode other than those short bits and pieces with the 4F.
https://forum.simrail.eu/ It’s not very active though. More discussion on the associated Steam forum and probably their Discord, though I don’t...
It needs throwing in the bin and starting over from scratch, with a developer who knows what they are doing! :)
Bottom line, it’s another sawn off stub of a TSW route like many before and still to come. Realistically the odds of it getting finished are...
We had the same thing with Rivet’s Bernina and never really got a proper answer as to why it finished on the high moors and missed out the major...
Although I generally support SimRail, it has to be said that their support can be erratic. I posted two bug reports regarding SP scenarios on...
This is what I feared. So maybe not “Strike 2” in terms of quality, nevertheless like all the similar German routes it would be drive a few...
Have just done a couple of runs over this route and have to say, it remains one of my firm favourites in the game. Oozes class and the care which...
Definitely. Not only the 310’s and 304’s but the 81”s to 85’s which were regular performers on the “Cobblers” during the period I commuted from...
Sounds like a great way to do the Monthly mastery, after finishing up a run on Medway Valley!
Mainly 310's. The 304's were relatively rare south of Rugby due to traincrew traction knowledge, though they did show up occasionally.
The only long Railtour that comes to mind is the Preston Docker on Blackpool Branches but even that is broken down into several segments.
Or in Jamie’s curated responses before locking the thread down… Wouldn’t it hurt to answer questions about the night lighting and whether or not...
It comes down to the type of route too. When people suggest something like the West Highland or Kyle line then start listing Class 153’s, 156’s...
Just a thought, the stream is gone so further questions in this thread rhetorical at best.
I can't help a certain wry smile that DTG are bringing live weather to TSW yet FSX-SE which, so far as I can tell, they still maintain on behalf...
As is well known, my absolute preference is for classic BR Blue content as that's the era I grew up in and started a lifetime career working on...
Personally I would rather they got rid of Training Centre entirely and focused on doing the tutorials on the actual route on which the train...
As I said in the specific FH thread that's been started, it's a halfway token gesture to emulate Run 8.
Seems like an attempt to get one over on Run 8, who basically pioneered this type of gameplay. However it is far more suited to the open world...
Can you please address concerns about the core raised after last night's stream? In particular the new UI which is awful. Can we have an option to...
I know we have to be careful not to get personal and I know Matt is a great guy, but surely to god the EP is at the heart of everything? He is...
Awful design. I voted for Dark mode or indeed we need the option to retain the TSW6 design. Why do these arrogant corporations think they know...
This. And if the figures just quoted in the Enough Is Enough thread are accurate, this is a business with a multi £$€million annual turnover, not...
Just curious, any mention of save game improvements or fixes on the stream, more slots, chaining reliability etc?
They really need to overhaul their processes. Can’t help thinking this situation is arising because of the annual rush for a new version and the...
Doesn’t sound very promising. I won’t be able to watch the stream until tomorrow, but this is sounding like “Strike One” against taking anything...
104’s were also quite common at one time on Birmingham to Leicester and even occasionally all the way to Norwich services.
Let’s just say if I do decide to go Standard rather than free, I’ll be using my infamous two hour refund window very wisely. Particularly the...
In deference to earlier comments, I will be watching the streams and make an informed (ha!) decision whether to go for the £40 Standard version...
Maybe it will be Finsbury Park to Sandy… Anecdotally there was a precedent, back in the late 60’s/early 70’s BR ran a cheap service from Newcastle...
Nice suggestion but have to agree with cautionary comments above, also… 1. The Mid Hants would be enough of a route in its own right should DTG...
If it had come out it would be a new item and I couldn’t see DTG making an exception to their abandonment of Gen 8. Best to forget about it and...
I've asked a question too in the Q&A about night lighting. Leeds/Bradford is a conurbation that should be awash with real and ambient light...
Another one from me. You have remained tight lipped about any (if at all) changes to the save game going into TSW7. Given this is a network route...
Yes a real shame, not just for PFR but a BR Blue version would have been right at home on Blackpool Branches. Far more ubiquitous than the Class...
I think it's as dead as Monty Python's proverbial parrot.
I only ever bother with them if part of the Monthly Mastery or I inadvertently trigger one walking by. But otherwise I feel they serve little...
Can you please demonstrate a night run on the route? If, as we have been told, this route passes through dense urban areas and parallel to the...
Hence my question. Going to repeat in the Florida thread, too.
One more from me… Can you please show the inner city part of the route at night? If you watch programmes like Verdee on BBC, the Leeds/Bradford...
I certainly think that would sweeten the deal going forward if we are looking at more (not all, giving Alex the benefit of the doubt) routes...
Appreciate the response Alex, but you must see how expensive this is getting, when one DLC potentially approaches the price of buying an all new...
Well said Denis.
I quite appreciated the TSS take on the situation in his recently posted YT clip - voice of reason (as opposed to me). However even he stated it...
Frontier First Encounters for me. It was an absolute steaming pile that even went to the heaxadump code running across the top of the screen when...
Used to see that years ago with game reviews in magazines. PC Gamer or PC Format. 90%+ reviews on complete tat, which said magazine would a few...
I have asked the very specific question in the Q&A for the stream, as regards both the route and the two EMU’s. Let’s see if DTG are prepared to...
