So will there be any multiplayer matches?

Also how long on average would they last? At the very most, when I'm most active on the computer, I have three to four hours available, give or take

A good game of open TTD lasts a few days. Don't forget to hoard cafeine pills, and isotonic juice before diving in.

I forgot.. Is it possible, like in the original Transport Tycoon, to flood the map, after letting towns expand on land below water level?

I don't think I'd be able to play for a few days all in one sitting. MAYBE a day if I stay up all night and don't fall asleep with my computer on my lap.

I was never good at this game and barely got trains moving between things that made money, but I'd love to play some time, especially if Bay12 people were playing.

To exist or not exist, that is the query. For whether it is more optimal of the CPU to endure the viruses and spam of outragous fortune, or to something something something.

Well I'll have a hard time as I'm sure a pone pone will have a hard time staying up that long against a hat and a high dwarf :P

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

I actually don't remember that much of it either. Though I racked up pretty high numbers when I used to play it.

That last gobbo would stand there, missing an arm, punctured in a kidney, liver, and spleen, fading in and out of consciousness at the far end of where the drawbridge would go, and his last sight would be the drawbridge dropping down and smashing him like a bug.

God DAMN I love this game!

As I recall, it involved a lot of train signal placing.

I used to be able to build the most beuatifilly efficient signal systems. But always had shit luck with actiually making profitable runs. But the trains ran on time!

Yep, the signal system. I didn't understand anything about it for a long time.

Coal is the easiest thing to start with. Ship coal by train from the mines to the power plants.
