Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2014 8:10 amI've been "playing" TS2014 for some time now and I have to say it's not bad at all. Especially the steam engines - they're rather tricky to operate properly.
The environment is pretty nice too with the changing weather, nice textures and that thing we're all missing from FSX: raindrop effects on the windshield (pretty nice ones too). Of course you have your train-geeks complaining about how realistic it is but hey, it's the same with all sims right?

For sure , nothing like dragging a 30+ wagon , mixed freight up and over a mountain pass . You soon learn about power management . Last thing you want is have to that thing run out of go, and start rolling back ... or worse , to fast on the decline .... gets messy
Ive also a ship sim (a couple) , and as slow it can be , its very immersive , and needs a whole new skill set to do it right .
Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2014 10:35 amShip sim is one I would like to have a look at for the ocean/water affects ... what was that old game again were you had to run a shipping empire .. ? ... that go's back to the late 1980s
Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2014 1:41 pmPerhaps they'll impliment the fsx style resample method of getting imagery into the Sim.

I couldn't imagine you with a ship sim a speedboat or fast flyingboat sim yes but a ship sim nah! ships are much slower than your General Aviation aircraft and as I see it anything slow is not in Ian's hanger
