#subwaybuilder — Public Fediverse posts

when I say "only playable online" I mean that #subwaybuilder will connect to a server every time that you need to build a new piece of track, and that as you have larger network the lag from doing so will take more and more time (i've had times of up to a minute or so on large NYC networks, though it's improved a bit).

today i am going to review #subwaybuilder because i know there are some people who follow me who will consider buying it. they should not buy it.

it is a very bad piece of software. it is provided as a service which is only playable online. they regularly break things and leave them broken. it generally feels like no one pays attention to quality at all. also, their terms of service say they can terminate your service at any time for any reason, so lawl oh el.

this is a game where you connect subway stations with tracks. and this is what it does while connecting a 4-track station to a 4-track railway.

Ich solle weniger #subwaybuilder spielen.

Aber macht schon Spaß.

They released #subwaybuilder and I bought it. First line seems fine but when I want to adda a route I get: “no valid path found between station tracks” what do I do wrong?
