There is another problem that almost everyone has overlooked in Wonders of Sodor

Yesterday I saw this video by BenTenLife, where he tell what is the Schedule of the Engines throughout the day, do watch it out. The problems are as follows (Strictly connected to Timetable mode only):

  1. There are a sparse number of Freight/Goods trains in the game, as far as he has seen there were 4 services to and from Knapford Harbour to Anopha Quarry ( 2 troublesome vans and 2 troublesome trucks) done by Percy, 2 Tanker runs from Knapford and Vicarstown and vice versa by James, and if the mail is to be counted as Goods, 2 Mail runs by James from and to Vicarstown to Knapford and vice versa. Like instead of many runs by James, Emily, Gordon and Thomas, like 15 for each, and like 5 for Gordon as for some leavages and if possible runs for Percy and Diesel for Goods as well.

  2. There are no services for Balllahoo, even though it exist in the game and even features in a couple of Stories. Some of James and Emily's local runs should go to Balllahho as well

“Express coming through!”

Made Gordon pull the express and in true RWS fashion, gave him 15 coaches. I love the look of a long passenger train.

Am I the only one a little concerned about the future of Wonders of Sodor?

I know that we are a month in to this beautiful game so it may seem a little too soon to ask such a question. I also know that I may be perceived as annoying, dramatic, or entitled, but I don’t care. This is the Internet. We can feel free to say how we feel.

I’m pretty sure this post will come as a shock to no one but we really do need more characters and more locations. Like it’s not even a suggestion at this point, it’s an order almost. Yeah that sounds pretty bratty of me to say, but this is a Thomas fandom and the franchise is famous for wide variety of engines. I don’t know dovetails as much as anyone else does, but I feel like the fact that we’re not getting any Intel on when we’re getting updates Kind of leaves us feeling pretty confused if we’re getting our money paid off well. You know it’s crazy when Roblox and Trainz has more engines and locations than Wonders of Sodor at this moment. I mean, the steep price of this game is understandable for its graphics, but if we’re not getting a lot of locations and only a measly six engines, it can come across as if some people are wasting their money.

There are some people who have actually stopped playing the game altogether and move onto something else which is of course perfect but it kind of adds volume to how little the game is offering to us at the moment. Other people Who really want to play this game have either not stalled it at all or uninstalled it. Mind you these are the type of people that I hear. I’m not speaking for the general audience.

This is my first time actually playing the dovetails game, but from what I can tell, Dovetails is very, very subtle and discreet about their announcements. Not even a little teaser or a peak, Which can add up to a little bit of suspense or it could leave us up in the air about how this game will turn out. Which brings me to my other point: I fear that if This game doesn’t really announce something soon and wait till later this game would flop. I can’t really speak for marketing or other people, but I feel like people wouldn’t want to wait excruciatingly long months or a year.

With so many suggestions and a patch being released recently, I feel like the tales has plenty of room To make a plethora of new content. I will never be the type of person to tell a person or a company how to do their job, but the success of Wonders of Sodor relies on Dovetails.

Yes, I know that patient is a virtue, but I don’t think it would hurt to want to know about a specific timeline so we can get and prepared for what is ready to offer.

What do you guys think? *sigh* I can smell the downvotes Lmao

PS5 Shunting Challenges.... They are Glitched bad!

Is anybody else having these issues? I know they are not meant to be easy that's not my issue.

My issue is with the trucks seem to start shaking over junctions and once shaking they don't stop. Even at speeds between 3 - 5 MPH the trucks go flying!

Spent 40 mins today on diesels level. Going slow to try and save myself. Had trucks 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ready. Slowly back up to 9... Then at 3mph number 8 fucked off to the moon....

Mite have to delete the game till this is sorted. I want the platinum. But I can't bring myself to do it again lol

HOLY SHIT THERE’S A DOPPLER EFFECT IN THE GAME!!!

Just noticed this while playing Wonders of Sodor! If you move the camera away from or closer to whichever train you’re driving while blowing the whistle, it causes the whistle to change pitch! It gets deeper if you’re moving the camera away and higher if you’re moving the camera closer. Love finding these fun little details!

K bye.

Love Wonders of Sodor as a long time Thomas fan but my WORD they need to tweak Percy's breaking

I pre-ordered the game and played it since release and had a blast going through the stories and I've slowly been working on getting the rest of the activities done after a two week trip. I just tried doing Percy's shunting challenge and have the better part of thirty minutes I was all set to get the last designated car. I had started Percy up as I had done with every other part of the rather tedious shunting challenge and he was only going around 12 miles an hour. Despite that, apply the breaks did NOTHING. He just kept going, breaks sparking all the way to the end of the map where a buffer was, hit the buffer at what I assume was the same speed (or ten, heck if I know), and crashed, undoing ALL my hard work. Needless to say I wasn't happy as I had started to break where there would have been more than enough time to stop.

I know each engine has their own breaking capabilities but my WORD did they need to make Percy's THAT bad? I'm not asking to stop on a dime, but I've noticed his breaking is atrocious, would it be too much to ask that they tighten it a bit to not be that bad?

Name this recreated scene

Gordon is a very proud steam engine. He’s the fastest engine on the Island of Sodor. He loves speeding along his line with the wind blowing across his funnel.

Gordon’s Driver: You’ve broken the record again.

Gordon: I’m the fastest.

But not all the engines were impressed.

James: Speed isn’t everything.

Thomas: But being reliable and useful is.

Ffarquhar Sheds Update? And No Road?

I remember seeing this shed where Thomas leaves out and crashes into the Station Master's house, where Percy was getting the straw taking off of him in Wooly Bear and where the Percy's Ghostly Trick happened. I'm wondering will it be added in an update, and if so where???

Also I remember seeing in the episode better late than never, there was Road next to Tidmouth Station, right? Or was that just changed once for the tv show?

Update: Its Tidmouth Sheds

Where will the Mine go?

I wasn't sure exactly where the mine that Thomas went down was, but as it's the pilot I'm sure it would be in this game somehow some way somewhere. But it doesn't really pinpoint exactly where it is, nor does it show me a line in the game where it could go. So I'm confused where the mine might be exactly. Any ideas?
