Some speculations, please ;-)

The Rail Simulator forum was very busy leading up to the UK release on October 12th 2007, this is a read-only copy of those discussions for historic and review purposes.

Some speculations, please ;-)

Post by KlausM »

Hi all,

in the lack of any news -- since the release data has moved to Q1 2007, which is also the last mentioned release date of the US version, I wonder whether the two versions will actually be merged to a single version, containing three British, one US and one German route...

Hi Klaus
I don't know.......but I always thought the release would be Q1 2007......which will slip to May 2007.
The problem is if you launch a programme...and genuinely tell everyone its 24 months development...they all switch off.
The good news is the retail price being banded around of £34.95....I always thought it would be more like £49.95.
Cheers
Jon

Speculated and accumulated and recycled on an industrial scale.

They should call it Kuju Rail Speculator.

What we realy know would fit in a single page of the forum.


Still....It keeps some people off the streets where they would be a danger to traffic.

They certainly should...information has been, and still is outstandingly poor..............and it gives everyone something to do, while we wait another 10 months before anyone can play it..... :lol:
I've posed the question before and never received an answer....but what is this forum actually for?........if not for speculating about Kuju rail sim.

He was browsing while I posted.

That's why, like yourself, I'm hidden.

Agree, Wookey's OK and showed talent.

A new sim will hopefully see the like return.

Cheers

lol, aah john, those were the days! :lol:



well thanks for the comments both, sorry about the lack of progress on the dockyard route, my (real) work really is what has taken away the time i used to spend on it.
also because i was originally building it just for myself, i've used many objects from on here and other routes which leaves me with the huge task of getting permissions sorted, and i was getting sick of the problems i was having with trains on the tight curves aswell.

I'd love to release it one day, even as it is, maybe for someone else to finish, its really just finding permissions that could be tricky.

How do we survive until 2007 for release?

It sounds a near impossible task.

I don't want to open an extra thread for it, but I just noticed that on their homepage, Kuju have replaced the picture of the three locomotives in the shed with a cab view of the HST. I hope that this was not done because of some nitpickers complaining about the mismatching loading gauge of the shed and the German locomotives...
