    FPS is like 20 after update. When moving route map it won't move smoothly. fps there is 10. Game is unplayable due the bad screen movement. Older routes works well but this East coast main line is horrible.

    Honestly with the horror stories I am hearing from 8th gen console users, this feels like an "...or get off the pot" kind of situation for DTG at this point.
    If you're going to keep supporting last gen consoles, it can't be done halfheartedly by continually degrading performance to where the game is a pale shadow of what those players originally purchased. There's a point where you need to make a call to either commit to maintaining a certain minimum quality level in the last gen product, or make it clear to everyone concerned that this is no longer possible, for whatever reasons, and call time on it, rather than continue to take advantage of long term loyal customers who, let's be realistic, have mostly been playing and financially supporting you for years at this point, if they're still playing on a console that hasn't been physically in production for several years at this point.

    Sounds like they've finally reached that point where 8th gen is unable to cope.

    Tried one service headed to Milton Keynes Central and it crashed, this is a bit weird since the crashes appears only going to Euston from what i'm reading here

    Well I'm having PS4 pro just for video streaming services because I don't like to use tv:s remote control to search series from there and I'm using my good PC for flight simulator and other what demands good platform. Sometimes it's just nice to sit on a sofa and play from big ambilight tv. I use PS4 to play good old games wich I know they are good. I never bought any game expect Far cry 6 for PS what I don't own for PC. It's more like nostalgia to me. I'm 46 years old, so gaming isn't a thing in my life. And graphics on TSW5 are just game graphics. They didn't even try to do it looking real. It looks a game. At London Euston station at afternoon there's 8 humans so it's not what my PS pro isn't capable of. For example Green hell is running very nice where you are in jungle. It's looking stunning. DG has poor graphics engine and due the old routes works in newer games they can't change it. I did ECML- scenario where was big soccer game and lots of people and I have to drive that extra train and it was empy all the time.

    I had this same blue screen crash one time just before Euston station too but when I continued from last save point I managed to drive in Euston.

    Thank god I just upgraded to ps5 after playing this game on ps4. And let me tell you ps4 simply can’t run this game so in my opion DTG needs to either make games good on theses old consoles or just drop support for them and focus of the future of this game titles. It’s sad that most of the customers are running older consoles and paid a lot of money for a game that DTG never told anyone will be bad. I feel like they never once tested the game out on 8th gen consoles or if they did I then lied to our faces about the quality.

    I can relate. 's why I have a disc based Series X, to play my collection of great XBox games of the last 23 years. Just tossing in greats like Fromsoft's Otogi series, or Knights of the Old Republic at 4k60.

    I’ll admit, that’s one thing I always loved about XBox. Since I’m on PlayStation, I have to resort to my potato laptop for stuff like Fallout 3/New Vegas since I don’t want to strain the old PS3 any more than I must at this point.
