Its an complete disappointment, its just a blank map for u to place some train rail pictures, it only interesting for 10 min then it gets boring, maybe in the future it will be way better for final release.

That's LITERALLY the point of this kind of games. It's like saying that Need for Speed sucks because all you do is just "racing with some cars", or Doom sucks because "you only shot some enemies". Some peoples here, jesus xD

Well, this game is not everyone's cup of tea.
And don't play in Unlimited mode!
You can actually start with 8.95B (3B x 3 - 50M).

I installed it spent a few hours trying to just figure out what everything is as it has no tutorial. Nothing is explained and this is NOTHING like mini metro, like i thought it would be. This is just a badly made game,due to no directions and needs to a bit smaller 21GB is too much for this type of game! I was never able to get a train running at first as i wasnt able to figure out what tracks did what so after another 2 hours I figured it out and i laid tracks everything was set up and i bought some trains BUT i wasnt able to put them on the tracks! I kept getting these red errors, So you got it! I tried for another 2 hours!!!! I tried my best and this game just didnt work for me and so i decided i'd rather spend my time playing mini metro then sit for hours on end trying to guess how this game is supposed to work.It would of been good if they added simple directions to this game but the hours sitting there looking at the screen I found myself falling a sleep due to the boring dry nature of this game. Good luck to those that figure this game out! Props to you In fact! The developer should give you guiys an award! LOL! As for myself i decided to uninstall this ASAP! Just not my type of game! Or as bigbelly wrote not my cup of tea! Goodluck!

Nah, you're just not a systems kinda guy. Just because the game is beyond your ken, does not make it "a horrible game" Watch Skye Storm play. He figured it out pretty easily.

Tips:

  • Separate feeder and local lines in medium and big cities. Feeder lines need big trains and local lines tend to be tight.
  • No rings or circles.
  • Intercity station should be located in the outskirt because of hard pax limit (10000)
  • Build platforms next to existing station to upgrade max pax.
  • Build subway/viaduct platforms on top of existing stations to simulate intersections.

I'm still unsure of what extactly is the purpose of this game, All you do is build rails purchase trains and get them running.
Took me a while to figure out how to get them trains up and running

LOL, did you even bother to read the game description on Steam?
ABOUT THIS GAME
NIMBY Rails is a management sandbox for railways you build in the real world. Design train tracks, set up lines, and get that stock rolling to make money and serve the needs of the population. Do you have strong opinions on rail projects and want to test your own ideas? This game was made for you.
The world is your canvas. Design and play on a fully detailed real world map with 1cm resolution. A rail link from Lisbon to Shanghai? Anchorage to Buenos Aires? Cape Town to Rabat? Why not!
Your tracks will need to respect real, existing roads and streets. Too many crossings may make your designs not viable.
Streamlined circulation mechanics so you don't get bogged down by the details. Build and run a large network easily.
Trams, subways, commuter, regional and high speed trains. Tunnels, viaducts and ground tracks with a variety trade offs on the environment, train speed, and your company wallet.
Simulated train and station demand, down to simulating individual passengers. Passengers can, and will, engage in train trips that make them board multiple trains, waiting in transfer stations.
Demand flow based on time of day and time of week, with time zone support. Find it boring when night time comes and the stations are deserted? No problem, start a new line ten time zones away.
Passengers will continuously rate their experience based on the trip time and the fares you impose on them, with effects on the demand of the stations they visit.
Single player and offline first.
Optional cooperative multiplayer: build together in real time with friends and others you invite to your hosted server session.

so.... anyone actually played the game? I like the idea but not sure downloading 21 GB in google maps really makes sense especially for an early access game

  • Basically a sandbox
  • Branching is hard
  • Height is not included
  • No NIMBY obstacles
  • Angry passengers (>v1.20 is better)
  • Passenger transport only

What? I installed ARK it took up 236GB How did you do that? No DLC'S?? I found ark to be an awful game! My guy ran around moaning and craping his pants even after i built a toilet for him. I even used a trainer to help alter the game to quickly build the things i needed as i like to test different things in single player and sadly thats all he did in my game was moan and poop! I used the trainer to give him EVERYTHING but i guess he liked to moan and poop! Even when chased by dino's I didn't see the point of taking up so much space for such a bad game at least i know why it was so large now thanks for explaining! I'm disappointed you don't have the intelligence to understand what i'm talking about and what gives you the impression i like nimby? Ok just skip this your not worth talking to

you, like any other dumb people of the internet, assume the other to be wrong before even considering he might be saying something that make sense.
A trainer isn't always a cheat, it can also be a software that modify your game installation or computer configuration in order to make running game easier, like lowering the graphical settings to an impossible degree, or optimising things the developper didn't think through.
You also skillfully (if you can say that) avoided answering his questions or even his point, the fact ark has ridicule requirements, ark require better graphics card and bigger storage, the only thing this game asks for that ark doesn't is ram, and let me tell you, the 8 GB of ram that ark officially asks for aren't enough to make it run "well" on most machines.

"the 8 GB of ram that ark officially asks for aren't enough to make it run "well" on most machines." Bro, I run ARK with a 4gb ram PC (to be fair I have a gtx 1060 3gb but my CPU is a old i3)... It have some lags when I'm in a place with many dinos, but in the most part of time the game runs smoothly, while this, this game here is only a map with 2D trains and needs 16gb of ram for the recommended specs...

well if you need to use trainer to play Ark, perhaps "survival" game is not for you. Single player ark is like casual game, no rush no whatsoever, so i don't get it the needs for trainer at all. In multiplayer however, there are lots of fukktards, so if i could use trainer maybe i could fuukk those fukktards clans that fukkk my base... but otherwise, Ark is just a chill game that no need for trainer.

I run it on old laptop integrated graphics, there, happy? Theres something called lowest settings and go around the files to lower everything!!! And I searched your so called not "cheat". Its a cheat, it levels the character while doing nothing and he still struggles playing. You cheat and still BAD AT THE GAME!!! No wonder you people like games like this.

He's OBVIOUSLY talking about a piece of software that optimize the game settings for him, this discussion was never about cheats, it was about system requirements, damn you people are stupid.

And by software, you mean? Coz I cant be bothered to read everything again. What software you need when you can do it manually on the game files. So whos the stupid one now? Still, what software are you talking about though?

Game Fire, Razer cortex, more probably exist, but I mainly use those two if my computer can't handle a new game.
And yes, while you can do it manually in the game files or in your computer settings, in most cases, it's both faster and more effective to just let professional software do it.

But does ARK simulate an entire world at the same time, all the time? I think not.

Ark is for pussies who want to pretend to be gamers.
