The first patch fix list is fine but in order to go from being “Really Cute” to “Really Fun” I think the second patch needs to address these glaring gameplay issues. It would need to have a “wye” intersection as they’re called: For instance there is no ability to get a train from A to C in this track layout. Related to the route creation…it looks to me that there has to be a “flowing” route between two stations in order to get a train to traverse the route. The way the consist creation screen blocks the map is annoying…the way additional stations get pre-loaded with the previous consist is annoying too.

Like somebody else said, the route creation screen is awful. They’re not really even big enough for me. The maps just aren’t big enough for the both of us. I don’t like playing against AI opponents. I really dislike the track over track bridges that you get. I don’t like the fact that track can’t go UNDER other track using a tunnel.

I have not yet been able to figure out why I can delete track sometimes and other times I can’t. But the gridlock problem is just too annoying even though I like the basic idea. Unlike some other people I like the idea that one track = one track rather than having some kind of abstracted one track = slow / two tracks = fast system. The train routing thing is definitely my #1 complaint. It’s also a bit of “damning with faint praise” as well because I feel as though the game doesn’t have a lot of depth or substance to it. This is a compliment because I really like the look and feel, I love the 3D models and the little animations. On the other hand my basic description of the game so far is “It’s really cute!” On the one hand I like it, and I’ve actually been taking a half hour or so away from WoW to play (which is something!) I’ve been holding back on commenting further because I’m not sure exactly how I feel about the game. With this game two opponents in one city gets pretty messy. In that respect I like the RRT version where you had a “train duel” whenever you tracked into an opponents city and the winner kept the city. If I wanted to nitpick anything it would be track laying with multiple opponents. Still, no crashes, it has run pretty well on my machine. it’s as though each new track laid has to recompute the entire track laying AI. The only problem with this is a couple of times late in game with opponents it gets very laggy.

So I manually make crosses from that top track down to the bottom. If you make a new train, it will sometimes place on that new track (it’s unused). The top track is brand new, the bottom one old, and it has some single branches to say an ore mine. Three tracks side by side for a long distance. Every switch allows the train to get further before needing to stop for leeway.

Even when I have full double track between two destinations I manually cross track with the single track tool. The game tries to pick the unused track for routing so make sure your new track has links back to get to the destination(s) you need to reach. As the game moves on I double track more and more. I double track to max around stations, single track on sections with nothin interesting or light traffic, and I have connectors on the double tracks that route back to the single tracks.

I skimmed the manual so really just did what I thought I should do as far as track laying. Sure it was fun, but it was a different style of game. To be honest I like playing a game and being done in two hours. I have had no crashes, and although it’s a “lighter style” game than say RRT, it’s still fun to play and I’ve enjoyed it so far.
