Am I good?

Post by libik »

If I have 1,000,000,000$ income in year 2030(starting at 1950) only with trains and 14,000,000,000$ company value?

And?

That's absolutely not comparable.
Consider:
- different initial loan
- different newgrfs (industries, vehicle, train and plane sets, town sets, bridge sets, base cost mods)
- different different climates (yes!)
- train acceleration model, and many, many more settings

We won't know how good you are unless you show us a save game or some pics ;).

Does it matters if you are good or not? As long as you have fun.
Stating that someone is good is always relevant to someone else.
If you are not ready to work a bit for your ideas, it means they don't count much for you.
OpenTTD and Realism? Well... Here are a few thoughs on the matter.

also, everyone is good at this game in a different way. For example ottdcoop build massive, flowing, jam free networks that handle amazing numbers of trains,but some people are good at making realistic layouts work with very hard settings enabled. Money doesn't really come into really, as anyone can make a plane route from the four corners of the map to make huge amounts of money per year.

No.

That would've been much catchier and more dramatic if you had just quoted the first post instead of having a disclaimer at the end :P.

This is his version of a publicity stunt, since you haven't posted a save game, why would we even believe you?

Maybe your network is not as optimised as it could be and that someone else could make a few adjustments and improve the income dramatically.

Post a few screenshots and a save game.

I certainly am getting some use to it right now.

Can we just let this topic go or get locked or sth.?

Answer btw. - if you're not bad, you're good, libik.

I'd say your company value (the $14b) is a combination of your earnings per year, your acquired funds, your possessions (aka trains, cars, planes, railroads, hangars, stations, ...), and the value of your shares.
