I did not find an official feedback thread so I wanted to share my thoughts here which I got so far. I played Dresden Riesa with the Vectron, S Bahn Vorarlberg and the Azuma. The game looks great, I love the volumetric fogg! The Vectron is so great, looks and sounds good, what a masterclass train! All in all its a very good first look so far. I noticed small bugs like floating passengers or passengers pilling up to a big crowd after getting out of the train. I also saw some unpainted BR 143 in only red or Dostos in only blue. I think thats because of the repaints not available in TSW4?! Some missing OHLE on DRA. I can't wait to get my other routes there for the layers! What a great game!
May I paste my review, originally for Steam, in here? -------------------------------- Despite being the 4th game now, and people already paid lots of money blablabla, this is just my second time paying for a TSW game (I started with TSW3) and this is really a fantastic game. Don't get me wrong, I am still mad at DTG for not fixing so many bugs there are (take Munich-Augsburg as an example). But it's still great. The things I like: Free Roam, absolutely fantastic Siemens Vectron, new favourite locomotive with lots of functionality, and it's home route is DRA, nice Vorarlberg, haven't actually tried it yet but sounds great already Dresden-Riesa's TOD4 upgrade. it looks good now the fact that TSW3 routes also get volumetric fog because they both share TOD4 however, what I dislike is: not being able to use your other DLCs you own(ed) in TSW4s early access (this WAS something I disliked) that the Vectron for TSW3 is an accidental update and it's just a broken and early build of it. 8/10 P.S.: if you want to bomb me with Jester rewards, thanks for the Steam points
Thank you for your feedback! I already posted in older threads that München - Augsburg has a lot of unused potential in it. And yes there are some bugs but for the routes I play nothing game breaking. I play on the Series X. Enjoying it since the first game! And the thing I really love is that you can always bring all your routes and addons into the new version of the game!
Hi JD, I'm loving the game so far but may I ask is there going to be a patch out for PS5 to have the release version of the game because alot people seem to have the wrong version on PS5.
Just so you don't miss them, we've re-structured our forums and moved all feedback threads to a new dedicated area which you can find from the main forums list, or via the below link: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/forums/player-feedback/
Yeah really loving it, just awesome what comes with TSW4. All the addons all the updates coming with it just great work! So addicted to it!
I've asked internally, and I believe everything is up to date (I mentioned a build number earlier, but that wasn't correct. 1.007.000 is the correct build on ECML).
JD will there be something done about the KWG ICE 3 headlight cone disappearing when going farther than 40m away from it? It'll prevent people bombing the forums with that report when they see it with volumetric fog, and the light is missing.
Well for some reason for me there's no platinum medals on ECML. Edit: Or showing up in the timetable.
So, whilst I am enjoying TSW4, like I have enjoyed every previous version of TSW, I have come across a bug that is preventing me from using other locos/trains in timetable mode. This bug is present in all routes and isn't limited to when I am trying to put in other vehicles. The bug (PS5) Whilst in timetable mode or any other mode, when trying to select the map to show where I am and also select paths for my spawned train to go, the map flashes on and then straight off. There is no way to view the map of the route. Even when in pause mode and on the map tab, the square button to view the map makes the map flash up and then the menu reverts back to the screen where you can quit, restart, reset physics or go into photo mode. I am unsure if this affects systems other than PS5.
Are you having that bug on the azuma when going at high speed the brake percentage dial seems to move when it shouldn't, or have you got that PIS glitch where it's not the PIS shown in the showcase for the azuma. And I'm on PS5 to.
And the DRA not showing red when pressed or if it is it's very hard to see but when I was watching dad rail and when he pressed it, it was fully red not hard to see or anything.
Yeah really loving it, just awesome what comes with TSW4. All the addons all the updates coming with it just great work! What do you mean with overbright? In which situation?
Yes. I have the brake gauge moving/flickering issue and also in certain situations and lighting, I can't see the speed on the speedometer because the lighting is so washed out. I haven't tried the DRA switch yet. I tried it in timetable mode and it isn't restricted to when I spawn in my own loco/train. On my stream tonight I was running a timetable service with one of the available trains in timetable mode and the map issue was still present.
The whole daylight scene is overexposed which washes out gauges and other things making them really hard to see. This was also an issue in TSW3 when they introduced eye adaption to lighting.
This seems just to be a PS5 issue because I watch other gameplay vids on other consoles and the bugs present on PS5, are not present on other consoles(PC,XBOX)
Another thing is that the train number on top of the doors is just a black box but when watching other videos on other platforms the number is there. Edit: (can't put photos for reference it won't let me)
could this thread be renamed so that it's inclusive of all platforms? There's no general feedback thread in the player feedback forum section, only ones for the routes and some bugs are present on all routes, not just a specific one.
I renamed the thread but DTG Alex posted this link above for the feedback area https://forums.dovetailgames.com/forums/player-feedback/
