Oh how did I miss this!

This game is so much better than sid meyer's railroads. I can actually control which way the trains go! :D

Lets bring this back from the dead shall we!

So, anyone around here played OpenTTD lately? Any thoughts on the new version?

We should get a game together :)

i will have to get into this game sometime soon and join up. i remember having massive train systems. 22 lane train stations feeding goods producing factories, 3-4 engine trains with screen spanning loads. i think my rule of thumb was 1 engine per 8 cars. I got lax after 4 engines though.

i had one friend who decided she would use only boats. she was new to the game so i scoffed. "boats are too expensive and make too little money too slowly. it'll never work."

we played for a long time and my train based empire remained well ahead of her boat based empire. later on however her income steadily increased until it passed my own. I guess its because of the relative ease of adding new ship routes compared to building new railway routes?

I personally follow and play my games like these guys: http://openttdcoop.org/

They are crazy good at the game, and I love their train networks.

OTTD main page: http://www.openttd.org/
TTD download (required for OTTD): http://abandonia.com/en/search_abandonia/transport+tycoon+deluxe
Hamachi Server: RQOTTD
My server IP: 66.214.232.91 (Name: B12GOTTD)

Is it safe to assume we'd use Hamachi if we played?
I've tried it for other stuff, but it simply hates my computer.

Oh that info is OLD.

If I were to host (I have a Linux box I might be able to configure to the task) it would not require Hamachi to join.

Oh I'd probably join in on a game, especially if no Hamachi were required. I'm still VERY new to the game though.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.
