Yakuzi Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) To find a proof that it isn't a joke you might prefer looking on a calendar, with clock set to UTC. It's already the 3rd April there and it means April fools is over for quite a while. So you can confirm it's not a joke then? April fools was further away when Kasper made his forum April fools joke, so you'll have to excuse my skepticism. Poe's Law strikes again Also, here's the longer experimentals announcement for version 1.0: Edited April 2, 2015 by Yakuzi links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claw Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Ted has confirmed that experimentals will be starting very soon. I don't think the exact day has been specified, but the announcement is not a joke. No April Fools involved in this one.Cheers,~Claw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also found Ted's confirmation on twitter in the meantime (see below), but like I said, after Kasper's joke April fools doesn't seem to be unique to the first of April anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mischief Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Sleeping in the hype train coal box. Less likely to get trampled by the impending hordes, cuz when we start seeing builds rotate out in a hurry there's going to be a stamped to the hype train and giddy squees that make a Justin Bieber concert sound tame.

jlcarneiro Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 One "side-effect" to version 1.0, is that the game mechanics will be more mature, so shouldn't change so much on following versions allowing mods (and savegames) to be used across versions, to those like me who don't play that much (nor that fast) it means not having to restart again...

I assume that it's a HypeWalschaerts type.HypeCoal is combusted in the firebox, which heats water into HypeSteam which builds HypePressure which powers the pistons that drive the wheels. And the Valve Gear isn't anything special, just part of the structural components really. Anyway, the Valve Gear is a Gresley Conjugated Valve Gear, just like the other A3 class locomotives.You're not the fireman. A good fireman would know this. I'm sorry.
