This game is broken!

[MagyarMatt]

Endless freezing and crashes. Nothing new for a game downloaded through Steam though to be honest. Steam really should take this down until it's fixed and stop ripping people off by getting them to pay for a broken product. Terrible, just terrible which is a shame because when the game decides to work for 5 minutes it is actually a lot of fun!

I don't have much issue except on initial loading

[dropolite]

I have the same problem and therefore the same issue. I bet we dont get our money back if it dosnt work!

Today.. most companies like steam or ubisoft game developers like ubisoft and uh well most game developers are producing buggy games.. and that this world we live in is gonna be full of con artists! they charge you a decent price for a game that if it is full of bugs should be sole for 2 or 7 bucks. when a game called silent hunter V came out it was expensive and buggy as hell but the companie did not bother to patch properly or beta test it before release.. I think thats what is happening to most games now a days is that they don't bother beta testing it or anything or patching it at all.. no support or anything.

[GreenKnight4Life]

Pretty much. It's notoriously bad in the PC gaming scene - Customers are doing more of what the QA department used to do.

Now that almost everything is "connected" there's a growing attitude of "we can fix it with patches down the road. Let's start selling the product as soon as possible." I partly blame big empires like EA (maybe valve too, idk) who often make unrealistic and stupid deadlines for studios to meet. Deadlines that have crippled game launches. Poor developers watch as years of their work falls to terrible ratings and scathing reviews all because the publisher made em release an unfinished product..

yeah a change in their ways must be made.

make sure your sound , video card drivers are up to date and run as admin , if that doesnt do the trick, then verify the files and see what that does, or downloaded it from a different internet connection

[poofyswine]

thtas right mine has no problem loading or doing anything the game is fine and i reccon its on of the best train sims out there and atleast they got all the major buggs fixes like no multiplayer this game is not a scam and i reccon its worth the money. i just dont know why no body playes it its fantastic and realistic appart from the de-railing side of things but other than that the game is really good and dont judge my spelling i type fast

[plumeofsmoke]

Not judging your spelling. but the game doesn't seem to be my type of game. it's just choppy for me.. and I already updated my video card... the funny thing when I played my a different game before I updated those drivers.. the game I was playing was acting a bit laggy before it was not.

don't hold your breath waiting for the perfect game with ni bugs to appear

[Mr_Tea_Rexx]

well i found out that the steam DLC dont work because you have to actually add keys to the your launcher, i had to buy my DLC from http://www.simulatorcentral.com/index.php/ and add the key to my steam version and now its downloading the DLC, dont buy any DLC for this game on steam, do it from this http://www.simulatorcentral.com/index.php/ site

[plumeofsmoke]

the perfect game is more like the old games that were out for xp and possibly windows 90's
the game I had that was by microsoft is train simulator and that was a good game it was not buggy at all I found... and microsoft flight sim x or microsoft flight sim 2002 or something like that not sure but those were pretty good sims that barely had much bugs.

looks are deceiving.
Rail Simulator released in 2007. Auran (now N3V) Trainz in 2001. Microsoft Train Simulator 2001
