    I prefered the original over the sequel.

    I don't like these design decisions:
      [*] You can't build tunnels.[*]You can't kill people with rate wars.[*]You can't drop off a load at a station that doesn't require that load and have another train to pick it up.[*]You can only build bridges at certain places and the manual doesn't tell you where[*]You can't set priority for each route[*]The computer players aren't restricted by the same diminishing returns as you are[*]You can't build industries[*]Industries disappear even when they are doing a booming business[/list]

      It's kinda interesting if you have never played the original, but it does lack the addictiveness and the fun factor that made Railroad Tycoon great.

      Why can't they do things right the first time around? I paid good money for the original and they withheld stuff for a "Gold" edition?

        You don't have to buy the gold edition, the patch fixes those problems.

          My latest patch is 1.05b, which doesn't seem to fix a lot of things.
