  • Incredible depth of simulation with a high degree of realism, making it the best train simulator for those seeking authenticity.
  • No additional DLCs required; all content is included with the purchase, providing great value for money.
  • The game features detailed safety systems and realistic train physics, enhancing the immersive experience.
  • The graphics are not up to par with other simulators, and the user interface is basic and not very intuitive.
  • A steep learning curve exists, especially for those unfamiliar with German signalling and terminology, which can be frustrating for non-German speakers.
  • Technical issues such as crashes and bugs, along with a lack of comprehensive English documentation, hinder the overall experience.

    The graphics in this simulator are generally considered simple and not particularly impressive, with some users noting low frame rates and a lack of detail. However, many agree that the graphics are adequate for a simulation focused on realism, and they complement the game's depth and driving experience. While not visually stunning, the graphics are deemed acceptable for those prioritizing a realistic simulation over aesthetic appeal.

    • “The graphics are sharp and look realistic but are not as 'fancy' as in other train simulators.”
    • “The driving feel of the trains, the depth of systems, and the excellent sounds means the graphics are more than adequate; in fact, they complement the rest of the simulator perfectly.”
    • “Personally, I prefer the Zusi 3 graphics since they look sharper and the performance is great even if you have an old system.”
    • “The one thing I'd keep in mind however is that the cab view is very, very ugly; even if you don't care about graphics, you probably won't want to use it.”
    • “Graphics aren't great while also having fairly low FPS.”
    • “The simulator had terrible graphics but already featured a rather good driving simulation experience, especially in contrast to most of the games existing back then.”
  • stability
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, with numerous bugs leading to confusion and frustration among players. The in-game monitoring system, referred to as the "cheat screen," is also flawed and can negatively impact player progress. Overall, while the game has potential, its frequent bugs and high costs for downloadable content detract from the experience.

    • “The game is buggy and confusing.”
    • “The in-game monitoring system, the 'cheat screen' made to serve this purpose, is also buggy and inaccurate in itself. If you use the cheat screen, you will lose credit and jeopardize your career.”
    • “'Train Simulator' and 'TSW' by DTG are nice but often buggy and expensive (DLCs).”
  • optimization
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is well-optimized, delivering excellent performance even on older PCs, with users noting that the graphics, particularly in Zusi 3, appear sharper while maintaining smooth gameplay.

    • “Performance is great even if you use an older PC.”
    • “Personally, I prefer the Zusi 3 graphics since they look sharper and the performance is great even if you have an old system.”
