For what do you need hex?!? What did you change, the savegame?

Sorry, but are you so naive that you think the demo is a full game?

I am 100% sure you won't get any trains in the demo, you don't have the Sprites for it. Why I know it? I have written an extract application...

Btw. Some people in austria have the full version already....

I played it................... Well, looked at it. I didn't know how to give orders to my horses (boo

) so I stoped, it wasn't worth the trouble....... I will probably get the full version, to check all features out.

Well, I've had 12GB of downloads so far this month. I have a total of 75GB to play with for the whole month (tt-forums uses 30-40GB/month). If I think it's going too high, I'll cap/remove it, but otherwise, it should be fine there.

You could just download it from GamersHell, works like a charm

Altough in my personal opinion the demo sucks

Stupid lame game. TTD forever!

me and my bro loves it... for it stars early finish late and looks hella cool...

Yuk!!

Very wise to include just horses

Well, this is yet another example of how graphics cannot make a game good; the graphics rule, but the gameplay sucks, totally not intuitive.. sucky interface, sucky mouse movement (view jumps everywhere when I use my right mousebutton to 'look around')

I can read German, so I figured that wasn't the problem

Maybe it needs a bit getting used too? You didn't expect the games' interface to be an exact copy of TTD's interface, did you? And as if TTD has such a great interface...

I agree that the demo sucks ...
and people don't think full version will be much better :/
it is nothing comparing to TT(D)

Hate those order-giving routines...

Stopped playing the translated demo after 2 mins..

Once again - TTD Forever!

Gurluas2000 · Post by **Gurluas2000** » 10 Jun 2004 05:09

i still like it... but i definetely agree its f*** hard to give orders.

Hyronymus · Post by **Hyronymus** » 10 Jun 2004 06:16

Isn't the difficulty for giving orders a trade-off for the ability of setting more specified orders then in TTD? And who notcied you don't have to buy an arrange wagons anymore? You only have to tell what goods to transport and the game figures it out itself. You also seem to be able to buy a vehicle and put it into a serice anywhere you like. And didn't passengers have destinations, I thought I saw that on the town info.

This Game sucks really ...

The original TT & TTD is much better!!

Gurluas2000 · Post by **Gurluas2000** » 12 Jun 2004 18:28

i like it... but i need to learn it...how do i give orders?

gryvix · Post by **gryvix** » 13 Jun 2004 10:34

well to make a route go to Farhplan click a horse and press the <=
then click the stations you want it to go to

then click on the stations individually and choose on your left what good they gotta carry then press also <== then press ok/V-sign

Villem · Post by **Villem** » 13 Jun 2004 13:36

Once you played TTD, you can't touch enything more complex than it even with a 40 feet pole >_<(im experiencing this everywhere, if the game is even bit more complex than TTD, i get confused and hate the game afterwards)

But be careful not to use right-click scrolling, because it will close the opened window. Talking about bad interface design...

I think that a-train has a better user interface.

This game is so really annoying, while you may be able to get the hang of it they shouldnt have broken away from convention so much. Building is an ass, with the build window closing on right click and loosing your plotted build, and otherwise just being generally dodgy.

There is no support for dual monitors. I try to scroll my mouse just moves onto the other monitor, great, so if im building or giving orders and want to move in the direction of my other monitor I have to use the map, and the map is supprisingly difficult to use.

Oh, and so much more...

Maybe they will patch it with a totally reworked interface
