    In answer to your question, you'll get it when you get it, as it's physically impossible to have something before you've had it.....

    So let’s get this straight…a timetable update that was announced during the last version of TSW and that has been in the works for almost a year is not ready for consoles? What on earth have they been doing???

    They've been trying to fix the blurry textures for seven whole months.

    Or rather, what has he been doing. This is a project taken on by a developer in his free time. Joe has also had to make timetables for other routes in the meanwhile.

    Not really. I would expect the author to finish the timetables and for dtg to test it. That would be the norm would it not?

    Anyway what’s the point, this game is on its last legs anyway. One or more future bad decision could end it for good.

    Oh did he not do testing as well? I assumed the entire project was just him.

    I can’t speak for him but you would imagine dtg would actually help him out?

    I would assume they would at some point, but given Liam's insight into the GWE remaster, I'm not sure it is that extensive.

    Im not sure how you came to that conclusion. If you mean TSW5 in preparation for the inevitable TSW6; then you would be correct.....but as a franchise? No....

    I venture that they are bundling the console rollouts with the scheduled patch for later in May. The reason is that, unlike Steam to which you can upload practically at will, Sony and Microsoft have to certify submitted uploads before they go out, and AIUI it's something of a PITA. So Dovetail is killing two birds with one stone.

    OTOH, Joe may just be playtesting to see how many service layers the consoles can handle before they choke.

    I suppose to be "fair" they could have held up the Steam upload, but....

    What you have said here makes perfect sense, I'm a console peasant but am happy to wait for it to land on my series x when ready. But on the off chance we never get it, I'll have plenty of entertainment watching and reading the meltdowns that will certainly go on in here........

    Says who? Do you have any data to prove your point?

    Why do you need data? They are angering people left right and centre and have been doing so for about two years. If you think that’s sustainable think again. Just because you would pay anything for any old quality with your train hobby doesn’t mean anyone else will

    And how long is that going to last? Bigger franchises have fallen.

    The quality has been going down, the prices have been going up. It doesn’t take a genius to see where this is heading.

    So what? They bring tsw6 out and what? Kick the can for another year? Again how long can they keep doing that before people walk away and it’s no longer worth the investment?
