the tutorial is not great laying Track: bad Train dispatching: bad Train management: bad I didn't even bother to go any further
I played many of the Train Management games out there and there are definitely better ones out there
I like this one better than Railway Empire. Actually need to think about your routes and their profitability,
You know, I have had this game in my Steam library for about 2 years, and played it only once when I first bought it. At first, I thought it was mediocre. BUT... Boy was I wrong! I was bored this weekend, and thought I would give this game a serious go. And wow! I have to say I am impressed. I'm a big fan of train games... from the old Transport Tycoon to the new Transport Fever series and so many others in between. But RC beats them all for its powerful simplicity. What I mean by "powerful simplicity" is that the devs made everything so simple, it is just amazing. And yet, despite such simplicity, it has powerful background mechanics, from research, to station improvements, to character development (you have a character you can develop in skills and experience and knowledge), to corporate accounting. In RC, you're not just running trains and moving cargo, you're managing a transportation company. You can buy land and industries as well. By simplicity, of course, I mean it's super easy to do what you want to do. Track building is super simple. Setting cargo types is also super simple. And setting the direction of the track is the easiest I have ever seen! You don't need to fiddle around with switches, lights, and stops when controling the trains. You set the direction of a track simply by clicking on it until the green arrows point in the direction you want for that track. Simple. Easy. Wow! Installing track switches is super easy too. Just put your mouse on the spot on the track where you want the trains to exit. Your pointer will turn into a green dot. When you left click, you can already see the new track segment extending from that point as you move your mouse around. Then click on the spot where you want the switch to end. Also, to allow more trains to use the same track, make sure to build the track in short segments. When you lay down track, every time you click the mouse you create a new segment of track. A new semaphore is automatically inserted on the track every time you click your mouse. So if you build a long track with 2 clicks of the mouse, you get 2 segments of track with 2 semaphores. Here, only 2 trains can run at the same time, one in front of the other. But if you build the track with 6 clicks of the mouse, you get 6 segments of track with 6 semaphores. In this case, 6 trains can use the track, one after the other. Trains will not enter the next segment unless it is completely vacant of trains. So the more segments you have, the more trains will use that track at the same time. You can see the semaphores if you zoom in close. Or, if zommed out, you will see yellow dots where the semaphores are when you are in track building mode. Another thing I find really handy is how the products that a town produces and needs are displayed right by the town's name. When you hover your mouse over the product icons, you see the price, and the time it takes for the town to consume or produce one unit of that product. So you can determine how many railcars you need of each cargo type to ensure you deliver enough to keep the town growing. It is such a convenient feedback to help us run our trains more efficiently. It's like the devs sat down and said, "Let's make a train game that is super easy to play, and yet super powerful to keep the player engaged... like forever!" And they pulled it off just fine. Devs, I'm sorry it took me this long to play the game and write a review. But you guys and gals deserve a round of applause. You really showed the other guys that a challenging train game does not have to be hard to play. You kept the challenge and the power, and made it super easy to play. Well done!
sem tradução para português o jogo morreu para maioria dos brasileiros, eu abandonei o jogo igual mais 5 amigos meus
Bon jeu de gestion ferroviaire avec un gameplay simple et efficace.
太好玩了,百玩不厌
刚开始还行,结果加入了对手公司后就直接卡死了,比如我抢占了AI要建的车站后,AI就不动了。并且AI不能使用我的铁路,导致AI没有收益,他的初始车站也是直接废弃了一直是一条铁轨,我给她花钱也不行

好玩
