Tsw 7 - What You Want?

Frankly just the exploding costs of PC hardware alone should justify its inclusion. Stuff like Crucial exiting the consumer market is going to be making the idea of maintaining a top of the line gaming PC to get acceptable performance in TSW out of the question for many regular people.

 

Will there be any decent PC hardware left for us plebs soon, or will it all be sold to the tech bro billionaires for their AI fantasies?

 

I hope we won't have to ask ourselves this question... but as for food...

Here in France we've had anti-theft devices on meat for quite some time...

 

In the UK we have it on beef steak at quite a few places!!

 

Happy New year everyone !!! . What i would like to see from tw7 a 9th Gen only version 2/ an Upgrade to unreal engine 5 like they have done on there new Ip Metro racers & South West train with the Voyager Br class 450 in SW livery

 

To be honest, I'm beginning to think there won't even be a tsw7. Metro Rivals has clearly taken priority, (Even the hecking tsw loading screens have Metro Rivals on them). Sure they'll say "oh they're separate teams", but that doesn't inspire much confidence they are of equal importance. How many people actually work on tsw still and haven't been transferred over? Sure there's no way to know that, but I suspect it can't be many. Look at the December roadmap, there's a whole two pieces of first party content, (New York to Stamford and the DB BR 147);

Compare that to previous roadmaps from around this time of year;
January 2025; (because I couldn't find December 24, maybe season of reveals replaced it)
This has Mannheim - Kaiserslautern, F59PHR, Thomas and Friends Visit the WSR, Cardiff (OK that was Rivet), Zwolle - Groningen and the Koln-Aachen update.

Now December 2023;
Here we have two US routes, two German routes, and Austrian route and a UK route, plus Koln-Aachen update.


Compared to previous years, dtg clearly has a lot less to show for itself when it comes to first party tsw content, not to mention they've already started subcontracting UK stuff...

 

They seem to be doing a TSC where they start off and they mostly leave it to the third parties, probably improves the chances of something working first try /j

 

This. They may not state it publicly but I’m betting they have mortgaged the farm on MR being a success and it could be quite serious for the future of DTG if it isn’t. As I’ve said previously, Giants have jeopardised the future of Farming Sim following their failed venture into Project Motor Racing, leading to massive downsizing and staff layoffs.

 

How could it possibly be a success though. Where is the player base for that game?

I guess you do get surprise 'sleeper' hits sometimes that just capture people's imagination, but I don't see it myself.

 

That is exactly the worry.

They have gone to the trouble of creating NYC Subway lookalike tunnels and trains for MR yet continually trot out the "no access" excuse for not creating a Subway route in TSW, which would sell like hot cakes. And no one who even wants to half seriously drive the Subway is going to give house (hard drive) space to MR. Not just dead in the water but IMHO stillborn and we just have to hope it doesn't take TSW and the dregs of TSC down with it.

 

Yes, framerate goes up, but also the ghosting and artifacting can get worse than TAA.
And I'm not confident in DTG to implement it correctly.

 

Ebula and equivalent systems, nuff said

 

I don't think there is any reason why they did this other than stopping players using previous version of TSW? I have TSW3 loaded onto my system and it runs perfect, I have asked can I port my progress back onto the old version of TSW...I am still awaiting a reply?

 

I want....

mo speculation about the next TSW before early summer each year!
