Welp sorry I posted this late, I was working on the very efficient thumbnail I swear! Anyway, check out the free Train Valley World demo now: tblink.co/RCETrain
The town names seem to be connected to railway history. Motala is a town in Sweden which had a locomotive factory back in the day. Creusot in France has an Alstom factory and high speed rail lines. Birkenhead has the Mersey railway. 🤔
Le Creusot is also home to a gigantic forge where they make nuclear reactor vessels, very cool place when they're not involved in corruption and fraud.
Any time you rate a bridge lower than 6, I have to compare it to the wooden one in Hydroneer that you gave a 5.9. I understand the reasoning behind the 5.9, but I have to think it was vastly overrated.
Please don't play minecraft. The best thing about Matt is that he plays random and actual fun games. If he plays minecraft he may as well play fortnite next
the double ended train is called double fairlie, there are some at Ffestiniog railway, so if you want to see some in real life, that's the best place to see them
I have one major complaint about this game Birkenhead isn't anywhere near accurate. Not enough tire fires, dinosaurs or incest. I should know, I'm a scouser
I used to live in Birkenhead. nice to see my hometown in a game :) also Janus (rhymes with bum-hole) "In Roman mythology, Janus was the god of doors, gates, and transitions". often depicted as having two faces, hence the double ended locomotive.
After watching this I gave it a shot and got 1:08:12 which puts me 3:12 over the time limit and just shy of 3 stars. Managed the other goals but I lost time in not starting the copper pipe train as soon as possible (I wanted to complete the copper city mission first) and forcing it and the steel goal train to share a good bit of track and 1 station meaning a few times they had to wait for each other. A very fun little puzzle game that could use a few improvements such as being able to tell a train which station platforms it should use or which path to take to get to it's destination (since the shortest might be shared by a few trains while the longer is better for a "direct" line). Looking forward to seeing where this goes.
one thing I don't think I've seen IRL with train networks that I'd love to see more of is what I refer to as "diverter rails" - essentially, instead of the main line going right through a station, the station splits off from the main line and then re-merges on the other end, allowing trains that aren't going to a particular station to just go by without even going through the platform. Also allows stations to be worked on, renovated and so on without just closing that whole line. It's essentially just a single extra bit of redundancy that lets the entire system run smoother when spots undergo maintenance.
It might be time to re-review your old bridge scores. I feel like this one was a lot more usefull then some that got a higher score in the past. And it looks stable and can hold a lot of weight.
I loved Matt saying "two and a half grand?" with a question at the end. He did the math correctly, he knew he did. He just also knew if he had gotten it wrong and it made it into a video (and his editors would "let that slip" I bet), we would all call him an architect, forever.
I could tell this was a sponsored video with the title. Do sponsorers do that overlay for youtubers? Or does RCE use a particular cutting tool for this? Just curious..
Day 2 of asking matt to play miniworld creata, also know among minecrafters as: minecraft but its a Chinese better more optimised with way better quality rtx I think, I mean it looks like rtx, physics, car builder machine thing, sliding blocks, rotor blocks, triangular blocks, round blocks rotor blocks, rockets, pressous oil and like everything minecraft gets from mods is already in the base game, while consuming less computational power... Source: my personal experience cuz I play both mc and mw
I abdolutely LOVED the original Train Valley. Really sad how much their other games differ from that first one in gameplay; TVW reminds me more of Railway Empire than of Train Valley.
That looks neat and cozy - tried the demo right away and failed the goal xD However two things I noticed: you can up-/downgrade trains when selecting them. Also there is no reason to keep "lucrative" lines going because of the limit of 10 trains it's better to repurpose them as you cannot do everything efficiently.
First of all, watching the video is only about "will there be a Bridge Review? :D And the second one, Thanks to the all mighty RCE, for growing my wish list on Steam. Is there golden shovel for money digging? :)
You should really try OpenTTD. It's a lot more realistic: trains can't just magically spin around on the tracks, or drive over other trains on the same tracks. It's actually really satisfying to have active networks full of dozens of trains, where you have to worry about signalling, roundabouts, bypasses and removing bottlenecks.
Why does RCE half to play such complicated games? I mean, I can kinda understand how it works but he doesn't make it very helpful with the number of times he says 'there'. 🤣🤣🤣
Decided to try the demo after watching this video. Got a 3* completion on my first try, though TBH that's mostly just because I saw how you did it, so I wasn't really going in cold. Also, got the mission completed at 1:04:58 out of 1:05:00. So that was fun.
Has anyone given you shit about your pronunciation of "Motala" yet? :D I'm not going to because how the heck are you supposed to know how obscure towns in all countries in the world are pronounced, but I do want to point out that the stress is on the first syllable, so it's MO-talah ("mo" rhyming with "moo" but short, not rhyming with the name Moe).
1.5 million in the bank? Spend it. Spend the money. Stop trying to build a bridge to nowhere out of cash and brute force your way to victory in an hour. More platforms would have helped, especially with the cows early on.
Matt you live in wales and don’t know the ffestiniog railway where they have what’s called a Double Fairlie locomotive if you love trains which I think you do you need to visit it it’s amazing 🤩
As Adam Hinckley said, the double train is based on the double fairlie, it is a super cursed design but apparently they were pretty good!. They had 2 boilers and 2 fireboxes, but they were joined together so the driver and fireman were separated, the fireman had 2 firedoors on the sides of the firebox
The bad water will flow from all water sources when a bad tide starts.... It does ruin everything. Have to redirect the water before it gets to your city when a bad tide starts

sus
Your late even writing this
No worries Matt!
Yay!!!
Are we entirely sure that you are not Alan?
This gives me an idea: build a city in cities skylines that uses only trains for transportation.
I had the very same thought
Like this so he sees
Yessss. A train-only district on Engitwopia
Please like this so matt sees it... Great idea
why do you say it like that, yk i meant to like the idea of this dude so matt sees it right?@@RininGamingYT
The town names seem to be connected to railway history. Motala is a town in Sweden which had a locomotive factory back in the day. Creusot in France has an Alstom factory and high speed rail lines. Birkenhead has the Mersey railway. 🤔
i was wondering why birkenhead made the cut 🤣
Well, it is home to the "Wirral Transport museum and heritage tramway"
I am swedish so I spotted Motala. one of my local railways had a lot of Motala trains.
Le Creusot is also home to a gigantic forge where they make nuclear reactor vessels, very cool place when they're not involved in corruption and fraud.
I'm actually from Le Creusot! Was really surprised to see the name show up!!

You should ask the game dev to implement a feature that lets you build bridges if you send proof of an engineering degree.
Do you think they would accept a resume that has an engineer somewhere in the title?
Please don't play minecraft. The best thing about Matt is that he plays random and actual fun games. If he plays minecraft he may as well play fortnite next
True
the double ended train is called double fairlie, there are some at Ffestiniog railway, so if you want to see some in real life, that's the best place to see them
Also, the Trench loco looks like a Baldwin, used in WW1 to take supplies to the front. There are a few in preservation on narrow gauge lines in the UK
Im a simple man. I see RCE with a knob on the game he’s playing, i click. 👌🏼
i'm a simple man too. I read the word "click" as "dick"
£2000 to travel such a short distance by train? Sounds like the devs have taken inspiration from the UK railways!
I have one major complaint about this game
Birkenhead isn't anywhere near accurate. Not enough tire fires, dinosaurs or incest.
I should know, I'm a scouser
I think you'll find the incest is contained mainly to Neston thank you very much
to be fair, we did put out the tire fires...
Day 1 of asking RCE to play OpenTTD. I think he would love it.
I used to live in Birkenhead. nice to see my hometown in a game :) also Janus (rhymes with bum-hole) "In Roman mythology, Janus was the god of doors, gates, and transitions". often depicted as having two faces, hence the double ended locomotive.
You should try railroad tycoon 3 if you like trains. Its a fairly old game at this point, but was implemented very well.
Might as well go all the way back because each successive Railroad Tycoon game was a dumbed down version of the previous one.
Railroad Corporation is also basically this game but with more Stuff
Basically OpenTTD, but a little bit more modern 😃
i had openTTD on my laptop its fun (especially when you make it so that your starting lone is 90M XD
Finally! Was worried something happened to Matt!
I wonder what would happen if Matt played OpenTTD
See, what gets me is Matt not upgrading his earlier trains to better ones.
Matt trying his hardest to enunciate Cog for TH-cam captions gave me a nice chuckle
Yeah. If you mispronounce it it sound like c🍆ck

This is if Sid Meier's Railroads and Transport Fever had a baby
I was afraid there wouldn't be a video today😢
1st minute club
This game is like OpenTTD had a baby with Civilization.
It might be time to re-review your old bridge scores.
I feel like this one was a lot more usefull then some that got a higher score in the past. And it looks stable and can hold a lot of weight.
Day 99 of me asking Matt to continue playing Minecraft. Wow nice day.
hi RCE can you make a city with only trains as transportation??
I loved Matt saying "two and a half grand?" with a question at the end. He did the math correctly, he knew he did.
He just also knew if he had gotten it wrong and it made it into a video (and his editors would "let that slip" I bet), we would all call him an architect, forever.
You could engeneer much more advanced trains inf factorio for sure!
Anyone else audibly groan when Matt destroyed that tree right before the bridge review? 😅😆
0:10 "Cow shed"? Do you mean "Barn"? 😆
At least Paddy's OK.
I could tell this was a sponsored video with the title. Do sponsorers do that overlay for youtubers? Or does RCE use a particular cutting tool for this? Just curious..
Day X= 7*2 days of reminding Matt to not be an architect in the Mists of Mindustry.
Looks very similar to Railgrade, I don't know if you've played that one before.
Day 2 of asking matt to play miniworld creata, also know among minecrafters as: minecraft but its a Chinese better more optimised with way better quality rtx I think, I mean it looks like rtx, physics, car builder machine thing, sliding blocks, rotor blocks, triangular blocks, round blocks rotor blocks, rockets, pressous oil and like everything minecraft gets from mods is already in the base game, while consuming less computational power...

Really late

I love playing Bridge Review with my young son!
18 years older than "Sid Meier's Railroads!" and with shittier graphics and gameplay...
Day 14 of more peer pressure!!! i.e. Mindustry
Didn't watch it on same day, keep going matt ;)
Day 21 of me politely asking RCE to play Theotown.
Like for og thumbnail
3:09 "See this cog you weren't paying attention to? Ignore it for now..." ROFL
was a drain engineer for 10 years, then they put in new rules about no penis shapes and now everything is changed :(
Rochefort is a realy city in the french part of Belgium (:
I NEED MORE ENGINNERRSS BIGGAR BRIDGEEESS LET ME RIDE THAT HORSE (ARCHITECT) SIR!
pretty sure Creusot is pronounced as "Crew-so", but I could be wrong.
Anybody else remember the original thumbnail? 😂
Tell us the story about that time you kissed a boy in school
Day 105 of asking matt to play chants of sennaar
Day 5 of asking for Anno 1800 content
I saw the notification for this video and thought “trains… sounds good”.
👇1min club😂

Hay Matt, can you not build like a huge roundabout that goes around all the towns and then just have tracks branching of to where they need to go ?
This game remembers me Sid Meyer Railroads I used to play when I was younger, loved that game and will probably give this game a go
Day 71 asking Matt to play Fortnite for building and reviewing BRIDGES
You should play Transport Fever 2.
It's the same but better, more engineering.
The moment I saw Birkenhead, I instantly stared off in disbelief
Why is there a town from north west England in a game 😭😭😭 (the worst town too)
Yeah, was not expecting to see Birkenhead in a RCE video
@@TheMiggleB literally
I like this, it's like Mashinky light. Very cool stuff
First of all, watching the video is only about "will there be a Bridge Review? :D
And the second one, Thanks to the all mighty RCE, for growing my wish list on Steam. Is there golden shovel for money digging? :)

This game remains me of transport tycoon. I miss the classics

It's sad to say, but I may have to unsubscribe from RCE. The background music in a lot of these videos is super irritating. :(

The thumbnail's changed! I guess TH-cam didn't like the face. Maybe the nose was too long.🐘
I'm shocked that you didn't pronounce the Janus train as Jay-Nuss. Like the prank Hugh Janus.
If u want good game about transport stuff i dont know better then "Open TTD". But its old ass hell :).
first! Yay
Pls play timberland more. I am to invested in the series to be waiting this long.
I think I am experiencing withdrawel symptons
I'd love to see Matt re-visit Jurassic World Evolution 2 now that it's had 2 years of updates and expansions since his last visit.
I try and guess your score every bridge review. One of these days I'll get it!
The closest I got was 0.2 off
Dude you should play Sid Meiers railroads I’ve bean playing the game for a bit and it’s buggy but fun
4:57
Wouldn't it be better to just get the 1500 worth of tiles first, and then take the shortest route again? For efficiency?
12:33 a double ended engine is called a double fairlie. They’re pretty much unique to Great Britain.
i love the look of how this game works but i REALLY wish it had a different art style, it looks like a bad mobile game ☹
The bad water will flow from all water sources when a bad tide starts.... It does ruin everything. Have to redirect the water before it gets to your city when a bad tide starts
Day 17 of asking Matt to play Minecraft ( btw your late )
You're*
Well you are going to be waiting loong mate
Day 1 of supporting him
Day 1 of being against this request
Day 1 of asking Matt for more mindustry
Seems like sitting on so much money while having so few trains and still having slow trains isn't good...
Day 41 asking Matt to play a Multiplayer game called league of legends as the character Heimerdinger
Taco
Used to live next door to Birkenhead on the Wirral. Good little rock pub there 😂 gawd watch RCE, get memories
And I live close to Motala. We were at a rock concert in the old locomotive factory there this summer. 😁🤘
13th video of asking on every video until you play Age of empires 4.
So, this is basically Railway Empire, but with less thought given into it.
Came to the comments to see how many people would bring up the change from an efficient thumbnail to a much less efficient one 😂
This honestly just feels like easier OTTD with better graphics
I already know matt's voice tone when a video is sponsered😂 I watch way too many of his videos
I don't see anybody posting about the dumb architect that thought putting a lighthouse next to a volcano was a good idea
Have you ever played transport fever 2? Great game similar to this but way more depth
Architects can also build bridges. They are just not very good at it.
Cruesot... 'crew so' not 'crew sought' 🙄 French and their silent Ts.
I must say, this looks like a direct ripoff of Train Valley 2 :/
This game is literally just transport tycoon 2 with a graphics update and only trains
