Transport Fever certainly looks like it could be good fun, and this new trailer is certainly drumming up excitement within me. Building up a transport empire with trains, planes and more sounds fun.
It comes from the same developer who created Train Fever which sadly has mixed reviews overall. I didn't personally try that one, so I won't spoil myself before Transport Fever comes out as this expanded game looks really good.
I am excited as it sounds very cool to progress through 150 years of tech advancements in transport. Playing through that in a game sounds weirdly exciting.
Due out sometime this "Fall", nothing more specific given.
About the game
Transport Fever is a railroad-focused tycoon game. Players start in 1850 and build up a thriving transport company. As an emerging transport tycoon, the player constructs stations, airports, harbors and makes money by connecting areas requiring transport services.
Construct complex road-rail-water-air networks in the endless game and experience more than 150 year of transportation history. Fulfill the people’s needs and watch cities evolve dynamically. Supply industries with freight, develop complete cargo chains and enable economic growth. Build up a transport empire!
Master challenges and get entertained in the campaign game mode. Two campaigns each consisting of ten missions with increasing difficulty can be tackled. Missions of the American and the European campaign tell the historical context of the 19th and 20th century and offer a wide range of real-world transportation challenges.

Everything I read about Train Fever suggested that it was broken and buggy even years after release. Hopefully they have a better QA pipeline for this game as it looks rather neat, but this is a developer who has yet to prove themselves.

OpenTTD might just have some competition after 22 years of dominating the transport genre, I'll definitely be giving this a look once it's out.

Train fever never attracted me. OpenTTD is ways better. But if there are AI players this one might be much better. Wait and see.

Loved Train Fever und really looking forward to this! Seems like they crammed in all the things that were missing from the first part!

I loved playing Train Fever! I did have one issue with it not being able to load when I used Windows, but when I switched to Linux, it worked! The only thing is that performance isn't great, at least with AMD graphics on Linux, and the keys aren't easily re-bindable as far as I can tell (since I use the Colemak keyboard layout, WASD isn't in the same place). I don't think it's worth the criticism though as it's essentially a nice update to OpenTTD.
