We will be providing information related to the Userbenchmark test to give people a pretty good idea of expected frame rates with various features turned on or off.
Understandably, for everything to be turned on, you need the best hardware there is.
Reading today's newsletter I'm of the opinion a number of those currently testing TRS2019 are quite impressed with the results they are obtaining. However I recall similar being said about T:ANE but many were disappointed and even today whether it has ever been delivered or not is still being discussed.
Personally I've never disliked T:ANE, warts and all, although I've cursed it many times, however I believe like others I was swayed by the hype and wrongly believed that it would run out of the box on the average home laptop of the day as TR12 and TR2010 etc. had previously.
It has already been mentioned in newsletters and on the Forum that TS2019 is graphic hungry when it comes to the latest visual capabilities, my guess is that it will be a graphic beast, that is not to say it will not be impressive but I also think it would be prudent of N3V to level the expectations and come clean soonest on how such impressions are being achieved. While surveying the computing and graphic capability of users machines may inform N3V that few currently could enjoy all the benefits of upgrading to TRS2019 in the future it is doing little to develop the desire to contemplate such upgrading.
N3V said they learnt a lot from the Kickstart programme but have they learnt anything from the marketing of T:ANE. Practically every user of the Forum can quote the ideal T:ANE setting for a given hardware specification for the best T:ANE experience. I do believe TRS2019 will be an even better experience but it will be at a cost so before we all get swayed by the hype as we did previously with T:ANE what actually will that cost be, i.e quantify in hardware terms how that experience was obtained. I accept I may not like what I hear but I will unlikely be disappointed and perhaps will defer that proposed hardware upgrade purchase to something more suited in the future. Peter
I think Tony's comments are quite encouraging
Did you expect N3V to post negative comments by the beta testers? You can not possibly be that naive.
Well yeah, publicizing an upcoming game entails a degree of false advertising. Just because people are saying nice things doesn't mean they're the majority. Cherry-picking comments is common for upcoming games.
I highly doubt all of the feedback was positive.
10. I have personally been involved in every Trainz release since Trainz CE in 2002. This release has a different feel. It is at least 12 months (closer to two years) since our original release date planned. Why have we delayed release? So that it becomes the release known as “this is the Trainz I have always wanted”.
A quick question, is multipule source lighting something in the pipeline? I would love to have the ability to have streetlights and whatnot affect the surroundings, since right now night time is pretty barren and has been left behind in the quest for graphics.
Did you read beyond the first paragraph of the comment that you seem to have quoted in full?
