Still great after 10 years !
I bought this game back in 2004. I loved it then and I still love it today. A lot of people are comparing locomotion with Transport Tycoon, and like many other people I also played Transport Tycoon in the early years. When Locomotion came out, I dropped out of the Transport Tycoon era and started on this one. I think it's so much better for a number of reasons: I think Locomotion looks more realistic and the graphics have improved when compared to Transport Tycoon. Also the trains and vehicles look way better then in the previous game, and so does the tracks for the trains (I always hated the strange diagonal turns in Transport Tycoon)...but track-laying was better in Transport Tycoon (a click on the mouse for every piece of track in Locomotion). Only two points that really disappointed me. The first being the limits of the game, the small maps, and the limits for choosing vehicles and industries. The other one, the terrible AI for the game !! When I discovered the Transport Tycoon forums in 2006, a new world opened up for me...I found a lot of new downloads for the game, like new trains, road-vehicles, plains and ships. I also found great scenarios from great designers who spend hours of work for creating those new scenarios. I found new stations, city-buildings and new industries that could be used for the game. The most brilliant of all was the long station patch wich could be used to create much greater and better looking stations. There were absolutly great designers there who made the game even more addictive ! It all made me start to work on my own mods for the game as well wich are still downloaded today, like the Valuables and Foodmod for the game. Sometimes I'm still working on some new things, but most of all, it kept me playing and still keeps me playing this game today ! I would recommend this oldie for all tycoon-fans even after ten years, and with the new downloads that came out in that decennia it still holds it ground, even after 10 years !!
