  • Open TTD is a classic transport tycoon game which focuses on making money and having fun whilst glitching out the economy and breaking the game to your friends dismay. A more accurate description would be this: "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."
    Anyway today ladies and gentlemen we are going to be using British humour to see if open TTD is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits. Or if the fact that the unlimted money glitch is broken. Yes so today we brake the classic video game of Open TTD with some fantastic exploits.

    What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.
    So sit back relax and enjoy this Transport Tycoon challenge!

    The exploit on the original 1990s TTD was to build a tunnel from edge to edge the whole length of the map. The cost would eventually wrap round to a negative number if it was long enough and give you hundreds of millions to start with.

      But eventually after a certain amount of time the money integer would go down negative equal amount. Unless you had the four billion cash, you'd be screwed.

      Another exploit in the original was to buy 75% of a failing company. You keep their business screen on while their finances go in the red until the company collapses, then you sell the shares for hundreds of millions. You can help it along by isolating all their vehicles.

      My favourite exploit from original Transport Tycoon (pre-Deluxe) was that whoever owned the railway half of a level crossing owned the level crossing... so you could build level crossings on competitors' (or city-owned) roads and just bulldoze them to your heart's content. Deluxe fixed that "sadly".

It's really interesting how the small things count, because now there isn't a need for airports or trains and your economy focuses more on trucks.
