Datoneguy Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 https://www.openttd.org/en/ OpenTTD is an open source simulation game based upon the popular Microprose game "Transport Tycoon Deluxe", written by Chris Sawyer. It attempts to mimic the original game as closely as possible while extending it with new features. One of the biggest being multiplayer. I remember playing this years ago, has anyone else ever touched it at all? I always loved starting up a company and clawing my way out of that debt at the beginning of the game, only to make millions with a successful transportation business. (Even making friends angry by buying them out...) I was actually thinking of setting up a server for it again at some point. Anyone have stories to share if they've played this? Quote
Chada1 Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Oh yes, I've played the crap out of this one with one of my old friends. I really liked making Water and Human transport industries. If I had any complaint it's that the settlement system is very lacking, you don't get much benefit for investing in specific areas. Quote
Datoneguy Posted August 12, 2017 Author Posted August 12, 2017 True enough, though usually the stipends for delivering people to towns were a good enough reward; I also really enjoyed seeing the settlements grow as you piped in more supplies. Quote
Guest Complete Garbage Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 I used to play this game a shitton. I kind of fell away from it after a while, but I'd love to get back into it. My favorite thing was creating unessicarily expensive and elaborate train networks, and even though I wasn't particularly good at it, I had a lot of fun. If you have the willingness and ability to set up a multiplayer game, I'd be happy to join. Quote
Azande Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 There's a new game called Rise of Industry that's in EA rn, you should check it out on YouTube. I also loved OpenTTD, would love to play with people, but I'd be quite bad ;P Quote
Diggey Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 This is my jam,used to play it on my OLd PC because that old piece of work used to only run Dwarf Fortress and TTD so fuck yeah Quote
VikingPingvin Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 I would totally dig an Aurora server. Edit: I might be able to set up an aurora server by the end of the week. Quote
