Crashed after 30 minutes of play. Except that, so far so good, although it looks too simplistic as far as ecomics and building are concerned.

same here crashed about 30 mins in, also id say this is like a very cut down version of railroad tycoon 1-2-3 with nicer graphics ... bit disappointed tbh as railroad tycoon transpot tycoon etc are some of my favourite games ever.
edit : geforce 6800 btw not ati

The automatic pathfinding done by the signals sucks. As far as I could see you could only build trainplatforms servicing up to three tracks per city and you have no ability at all to influence the signals. Thus I get regular lock ups of trains. I would have loved a more detailed signal system like it is being used in TTD.
Otherwise the game is pretty fun, love the graphics. The difficulty level seems to be pretty low though. I started a game on Tycoon (although without oppontents) and managed to get the highest rating in the list when I retired after 2 hours.
Crashes are not that frequent (although they occur). The most annoying one is the one that occurs when I enter the options menu. If the game crashes then I have to delete my settings files to make it start again.

Just feels too simplistic. I would have expected a more detailed and complex game.
Apart from that, it's okay.

I agree, this game like many others lately have been noobified to appeal to a broader audience.
Personally I prefer more complex games with some micro management and stuff, but it's still a fun game, I just doubt I'll be playing it for long.

After quite a few hours of playing Railroads! I got fed up with the crappy AI routing, automatic signal placement and the inaccurate track laying. After the "Oooh shiny detailed graphics!" effect wears off you start missing TTD.

Well after playing this for a few hours have to say im very disappointed.
It looks lovely and graphics are nicely polished but.. the gameplay is very dull. Theres no substance to the game at all... Feel like all im doing is laying down track, and even then theres just two options for that.. single track and dual!
I find trains getting stuck due to having no control over the signals. As someone else has said in this thread there is a big lack of control, a game like this NEEDS options and control.
Oh and what the hell are sky scrapers doing in 1871??..
An ok game but could of been alot better... gonna see if i can find RT3

What is TTD? |
Transport Tycoon Deluxe, by Chris Sawyer. Have a look at:
http://www.openttd.org
This is an excellent open source version of the game.
If you are interested in playing, you might want to have a look at this link too, since there is a possibility to download the necessary files from the original TTD (graphics files).

Is it only me who got fuckin low fps?
It's at 10-12 all the time.
Sometimes it drops to 3.
No change in fps if I change any graphic settings.
I hate you.
