Considering it was good enough to lead to an open source project to keep it alive, an unofficial patch for the retail game that expanded its scope massively, and as a result, it just seemed to tick all of the right boxes. With Transport Tycoon, it was a phenominal success as far as I can tell without any hard figures. The list of transport style games that I have include If Phil Steinmeyer makes another RRT game though, I will buy it.įor me personally, I’m a little jaded with transport games right now.
My conclusion from the long post below is: the quality of transport games of recent times have been fairly poor. Any theories? Was the market just tired of railroad games? I need to play around with RRT2 since I grabbed it during the steam xmas sale last year.Ī lot of you guys seem to like RRTCIII, but I don’t think it sold all that well. I don’t think we ever completed an mp game. I liked RRT3, but it didn’t seem to be the most stable game in multiplayer.
Yeah, Firaxis actively promoted it as the return of the series to them. I still don’t get what they thought they were doing with that title - previews specifically promoted its lineage to the earlier games and yet when it was released I remember seeing a dev post (possibly here) where the dev acted like they were surprised people were expecting something closer to the RRT games. So even though the economy is probably better and the graphics definately are, RRT2 seems to offer more gameplay. Plus putting in rail doesn’t deform the map in RRT3. For full details on how to activate please follow this link: /kb_article.RRT3 just doesn’t have as many good maps, and as cool as the “ride along” aspect is, it really drives home how abstract the game is. In order to activate this game, you will require a third-party 'Steam' account. And all maps are real (based on satellite photography from US Geological Service and other sources). The design and interface are true to the character of the fabled late 1800's railroads. Period video and pictures are interlaced with the game. Everything about the game is centered around an authentic look and feeling of the railways. This game is about trains for people who love trains. If you want to hop on a plane, car or ship, hop on another game. This is a real railroad game, not just a strategy game that happens to involve railroads. It can take you from a normal, well-adjusted, well-rounded person to an obsessed, singled-minded, one-tracked train head. It can take you from penniless manual laborer to powerful multi-millionaire. It can take you from the year 1804 to the year 2000.
It can take you from New York to South Africa. Includes Railroad Tycoon II and the expansion The Second Century
