the game is not crap, the game is okay. Smile
No one is sure if the game will be released on the 13th of august. some say it's more likely that it will be released at the end of this month. There is no official confirmation of the release date.

This is the year 1850. It's an age of radical change and new departures. The era of mass production and mass transportation has just begun. The resourceful entrepreneur has plenty of opportunities. It's a time to build empires with just a little capital and a clever business idea. New manufacturing plants are springing up everywhere. The world craves goods of every kind. Towns are growing at a breathtaking rate. But how to get the goods to the customers? How can workers get to the plants? Who will haul the vast amounts of raw materials?

it just looks like the normal games. i dont like tycoon games with their lack of attention to detail and 1 million clicks to setup a shop selling pies at £2. so tedious, and he scenarios are all the same just a dif time / location and slightly harder as u progress.

Game is fine in my opinion... It won't be Doom3 or HalfLife2, but it sure has it's own following... I am sure popularity of it will grow even more once their is English version out....

The german release wasn't that good after all, very buggy game. But they might have fixed that in the english release.

The game looks good, but judging from the demo the control interface is quite suckage.

Well,Kondor I don't think it's fair to compare a managment game to a FPS hype game.Anyway, I think the game is nice, bring back the Transport Tycoon spirit.
