There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I also ran into an instance where during a tutorial for a different train I entered the train through a passenger door, forgot to close it, and then when I went through all the steps of starting the train properly, the train wouldn't move even though it said I should be moving. It was because the passenger door was still open, and the tutorial never alerted me to that fact.
The tutorials need massive improvements to make this game playable. It's like the designers/developers throw you in the deep end of a pool after one poor swim lesson and force you to swim. They would argue that they are just trying to be realistic, but I would bet that in the real world, the train companies train you well and actually assist you in learning how to operate a train. The designers/developers were just lazy and didn't want to put the time in.
Also, the game crashed on me and I had to restart it. That leaves a sour taste in my mouth. This is even after I downloaded the release day update as they obviously had to patch stuff after they just released the physical disk. I've never had a PS4 game crash on me.
Stay away until they release a few more patches or, perhaps, release a sequel with improved tutorials. This was honestly one of the most frustrating video game experiences I've had in my life and I've been playing since the days of Atari.

まるで職業体験をしているかのような人間の操作を要し、没頭感は半端なく、一時的な春夏秋冬および実際と同様の24時間の時間概念があるため(列車種別・地域により24時間運用があります)大好きな人は廃人寸前までもってかれる心配があります。
私も一社会人としてかりそめの世界で労基にからむ危機感を感じました。
日本人がやるとこうなってしまうのが皮肉ですが、海外のおおらかな職場・運転士さんをイメージしながら暖かく見守るようにプレーすることをおすすめいたします。
ふつうのテレビでプレイするにはディティール・環境描画が甘く、おそらくはpc版の動画など経てここへたどりついた方が多くいらっしゃると思う為、コダワリ派は慎重にプレー環境の選定をしたほうがいいと思います。
私はHOの仕入れや資料を収集するためよく現地に赴くためそのへんは精密にできているPC版をあてにしていますが、ジオラマ製作などの素材にできそうな雰囲気はいやよくやったなと言うバッチリ感です。
シミュレーターは雰囲気で!という観点から100点に近い★5あげます。
世界のレールファンはえげつない人口ですのでps4に展開したわけですが、コールドスタートや重連(重単)・ATSの機器設定など主にほぼ説明が無いゲームと思って差し支えなく基本的には海外フォーラム・公式のウェブマニュアル(あくまでps4用ではない)をがんばって解読します。へたな薀蓄は置いといてという空気感がなんとも日本と違っていますが、困るといえば困ります。
そのあたりのサポートについてはわりと多いpc版のバグ修正対応などと比べても軽く見られているようで最近は全くないみたいです。
さすがに貫通ブレーキが緩解しない事象が発生している状況では単機なら動きますが20両とかは動きませんよ・・・
何がバグなのか設定の不備なのか、把握することから始めたほうがいい感じです。
PS4ならではのVRを使った独自展開など、海外の支持は本当にアツいゲームみたいでDLCも逐一追ってリリースされていますので展開に期待していいと信じています。あと専門用語や法規は各国共通でしょうから好きな人にはなんとなくで意味は分かるゲームですが、日本語に対応してくれるといいですね。
