This 100%
+1 Route hopping has so much potential with a few tweaks. It's just generally too much hassle right now in most circumstances.
Only premature if they aren't working on something new instead. Only two paid 1P DLCs in known development (one of which is a loco, so likely a...
Also just to add DTG left a TON of money on the table in the TSC era because it was the complete wild west for 3rd-party content. Since it was...
That was the original plan from TSW>TSW2. Nothing was going to carry over under DTG's original plan. It's not an unreasonable fear.
Yeah could be Spring '28 instead for sure, part of the calculus will also depend on when Gen10 consoles make their debut- i'm sure TSW will then...
Yup, because afaik the conveyor belt CAN'T be stopped- it's literally the only thing keeping the lights on, especially with them offering a free...
Very, very quiet on 1P content from DTG this year in general. Now is it more likely they're all working away on "core improvements", which will...
The 350's been problematic since the Euston-MKC route it released with, which puts the onus back on DTG (or Rivet maybe) imo. I don't get bad...
That would be fantastic! I appreciate your efforts!
Pretty good stuff all around! Certainly gonna give TSG's steam implementation a shot- really hoping they've gotten it to a good state. Any ideas...
Cool map- really REALLY hoping we see the return of CSX on this one
Lmao it's funny how when their lawyers want a patch to go out, it happens immediately!
Wish my job went on Xmas break on Dec 10th, must be nice
PC/Steam/no mods/all layers active I'm liking it so far overall. The new 140 is really nicely modelled and sounds great imo. Haven't gotten to...
Yes, this is the entire problem! It's insane to develop software this way, and the fact that DTG treats it as common practice, when it's...
Million dollar question that DTG refuses to answer. I don't know about Playstation but Xbox has a dedicated platform for betas (Game Preview Program)
Crazy to me that 3Ps are out here having to defend DTG's ridiculous testing paradigm (i.e. no console testing prior to certification) while we've...
Check out the Birmingham-Crewe discussion thread (at least a few pages back at this point). Kezz from AABS states that they can only test on...
They've admitted they don't have dev kits and can only play the retail builds on console- wouldn't be surprised if they don't actually have a PS5...
That's kind of an ugly livery- reminds me of one of the Amtrak phases but i can never keep them straight lol.
Screenshots don't look 90% done, and you know they don't do any testing lol, so there's still a tiny bit of hope
Really hyped for this one!
Looks fantastic! Are the 465's getting modern suspension upgades, etc? I saw train announcements mentioned assume station announcements are in...
Very nice! I'm interested in all of these. Always really enjoyed SEHS, so it'll be nice to get more of that area. I'd like to echo the request...
I play on PC. Do you own DTG stock or something? What's your incentive for defending their shoddy dev practices? Cause it absolutely brings...
Lol great minds think alike!
I mean maybe consider your approach? "Where else you gonna go for your train fix, console peasants?" is hardly a compelling argument. Implying...
I voted Brighton Mainline, TVL, and Trenton BML mainly for TOD5 and a timetable including the Class 700 (and any other subsequently released...
The 218 has been one of my biggest purchase regrets tbh. It's a great model but you just have barely anywhere to run it in timetable mode that's...
Link to Matt's comments by any chance? Except we learned from the Birm-Crewe debacle that there is no console testing until it passes...
Not really- not more than any other country. In fact, i probably enjoy them more because I have zero IRL experience with Germany (maybe someday i...
This is all very sad. I don't think the memory leak causing the blurry textures can be fixed without a complete code rebuild, which isn't gonna...
First time playing with new update PC/Steam/no mods Service Mode, 9W10 Crewe-London Euston 0943 Class 350/3 Pantograph is down upon loading in...
It was also kinda strange that they included Japan, Portugal, and Czechia when they aren't technically in the game yet Ah well
Actually think this could work pretty well. The highlight of the Santa Fe pack was the timetable, so i trust them to get the operational side of...
I'd like to see more Netherlands as well. They did ask in the new survey about "what countries (other than UK/US/DE) already in the game would...
Lots of valid complaints about DTG, imo, but this isn't one of them. Why do we need to know who the beta testers are? They probably don't want...
Yeah, i like getting new content, personally. If no DLC came out of a whole year, i'd probably move on to something else just tbh. I also don't...
Doesn't bother me if they just wanna sell cosmetic LOVE Edit: the profanity filter is ridiculous- a five year old wouldn't even get in trouble...
Take my money! Seriously i might never play any other mode! I need to do that survey lol
PC/Steam: Sometimes the guard buzzer will turn on incessantly when you open a door and you have to open and close it again to get it to stop....
Yes and it's pretty obnoxious
Wowwww!! That's pretty shocking tbh!! And Athena has totally disappeared as in a puff of smoke, correct? Glad i never bought that one
No kidding? Like DTG's lawyers called mid-stream? Is there a link for this?
Does an Xbox player's money not count the same? Why am i more casual if i play on xbox? Do those hours spent playing not apply? Why does that lose...
+1 And, more generally, what are DTG's plans as publisher to improve third-party add-on compatibility with other third-party DLCs? As...
Remember when they pretended they were gonna fix that issue?
100% agree! It's already bad and getting worse with each release, and it seems like especially the veteran TSC devs who are used to being king of...
That's true
