From the trailer, it actually looks surprisingly good. The graphics look reasonable, and it looks like it will be easy to create everything. The bit in the trailer where you see a brief moment with a ton of trains coming into a station looked quite awesome.

I love the fact that you go through history with it, from steam trains to super fast trains, and all the other transport types of course.

Looks like it will be 64bit only. Time to update if you still haven't.

They list Linux support on their overview page, and confirmed it to me on twitter too:

@gamingonlinux Yes, of course! The overview page has a detailed platform list: https://t.co/boFSIhbWk5

Transport Tycoon 3D? I'll buy that!

Interesting. I'm still waiting for a game in the genre to even match OpenTTD on the gameplay front. Maybe this will finally be it?

very promising indeed :D

I did play Train Fever quite a bit! It is a really good game - still it has some tricky build mechanics (somtimes you mess up roads, railways, bridges etc.) and the performance is quite bet if you play the game for a long time through the ages.

If they fix the performance and bulding issues it might allready be a much better game. Also the industrial mechanics could be improved. Let's see what they're delivering!

Train Fever had a very good base, but there were a lot of niggling issues which prevented it from being really good. If they've taken the feedback from users into account, this should be a very good game :)

Is this game like Cities in Motion?

Sounds pretty fun to me. Started following it on Steam so I don't forget when it comes out.

Even if it doesn't beat OpenTTD in every way, it looks like it might be good all on its own, and that's enough for me.
