well this is just a game ... not real life and it is already established that this game is not even close to being as complicated as the previous games.

This game was designed to be easy to learn and quick game play for multi player.

Looks like the game will be fairly customizable soon.

I have same cpu as you , 2 gigs of corsair ddr2 , and a geforce7600gt. Game runs smooth as silk... I downloaded a patch from the AMD site for the dual core processor, helps games interact with the 2 cpu's. Things that could happen if you dont have the patch is game lock ups , crashes, and weird grap...

I am going to make a wild guess and say it has something to do with your computer not the game. Most people are raving about the patch and how it saved the game for them. The demo doesnt have everything the patch has. Your problems sounds like video ... or maybe the CPU. Useful information would be ...

I have played them all. I have played them all quite a bit ... I still like Railroads! for what it is ... This game certainly isnt the worst game I have played. I am dissapointed a little that this isnt RRT4 but thats life. All the articles I read said that the game was based on RRT 1 .... no mentio...

5) how do I make the spline tool work? Once by accident I was laying out track and it went into a strange spline curve mode where I could change the curve. Never ever managed to go that again in many hours of play! Start laying track by left clicking and releasing ... extend the track how you want ...

Last time I checked the title of the game was Railroads! not Railroad tycoon 4 . The game doesnt even have tycoon in the title... I think that should be the first hint that the game isnt going to be RRT4. You are not the only one to feel this way about the game tho. The game is designed to be easy t...

In my experiance the shorter the crossover the less chance of a head on lock up. I dont usually worry about a 200 mph crossover since the train is about to slow down to get into the station or is just leaving a station. In your example how does a train get from the top track get to any other track t...

you cant block a buy out .. all you can do is buy them out first or expand faster than they can get income ... I think buyout first is the better option.( with my limited experiance in online multiplayer) It can become complicated ... I think .. so best way to learn is to play. Steal other people st...

Simple is always the best ... trains dont seem to beable to see past 2 signals ... and they will switch to a track on a crossover even if another train is on that track ... in some situations anyway.
