I really don’t want daily updates (who has time for that, right?), but at least a weekly update on the development, some English-language videos would be fine.

You should care about the community just as much as about the press. We are not too many, but most of us are enthusiastic about your game, and all we want is some more information, some answers to our questions and that’s all:)

Don’t get me wrong, I love what you do guys, but nowadays it’s essential to work together with the community… not giving a damn about them might not be the best idea.

fcsaba

And there is already a video in english: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D73Fa6VFiME

 

A lot more should come in the next days. Be patient!

How can anyone not understand grades, or not grasp that if you want to create a route that actually gets used you should watch what cargo is already moving on the map to see the production chains.  How can someone who’s played cities in motion, railroad tycoon, and transport tycoon not have any sort of intuition about these things???  Then he blames the game for being confusing and not intuitive.

That is why I don’t like these kind of videos. I think if you want to analyse a game you have to learn it before and not just play dumb “in front of the cameras”.

I don’t like to make this kind of videos, otherwise I would do. But I can make a video showing my network.

But theres been pretty good coveradge in german videos,  some were posted today  on TrainFever’s Facebook page

Thats more entertaining then watching someone who doesnt grasp, basic Transport Tycoon game logic. Sure getting to know the controls and how things tick is different, but production chains and so on are basically the same in every game.

Also, I do know how to play TF 😉

The station automatically snap to the road. Of course there will be times when there is no proper road to build a station in the town. In this case you make a road and then the station. Also you can use keyboard keys to rotate the station manually.

You can even delete a station to upgrade to a bigger one without losing any of your lines connections. An icon with a time will appear.

My problem is only with hills, bridges and tunnels that are hard to make double tracks. But that is in the todo list to be improved before launch.
