As people have already mentioned, there are a few issues with the route or stock, but with a bit of perseverance these are fairly easily overcome.
Where the DVT brakes are concerned, if you tap them up to continuous service then straight back down to suppression, you'll find you should have enough brake power to bring your speed down smoothly with some minor adjustments before stopping. If not, tap it up a bit more until you're slowing satisfactorily.
There are quite a few line side bushes which have wandered onto the track, which shouldn't have. These seems to be mainly restricted to the V1 branches between Colchester and Walton-on-the-Naze, and/or Clacton, and the Sudbury branch also seems to have a few. They look to me as though they've been placed using the auto gantry feature and are just too long for the radius of curve they are supposed to be lining and the centre of them are within the 4-foot. Again, not a major issue and i can live with it as really, it's not worth losing sleep over.
Where graphics settings and such are concerned, my computers not up to much these days but can quite happily run GE2 with everything maxed out, except for the World Object Density, which i have sat on 6. With these settings i am averaging about 11 FPS, which for my lappy is good! I was quite surprised to see that lowering the WOD down to 5 seems to get rid of almost ALL the scenery, as i seem to recall being able to go as low as 3 on GE1 before everything would vanish, so i assume that's also bee changed?
The only thing that did disappoint me a little is the fact that there is stock included on the CD which is not drivable, this being the 56, 37 and the 47's. For my own personal use, this isn't really that much of a big deal as i'm fairly sure i know how to make them drivable, but it would've been nice to be able to use them 'straight outa the box'. Again however, not something i'll be losing any sleep over!
Well done to all involved, well worth the pennies and i look forward to more!
