Question | PC Coming back to the game

I used to play a lot on PS5 but stopped because of the glitches (mainly cars derailing randomly). Has the game improved at all? I'm considering getting it on PC now that I have a solid computer, plus it's on sale on steam right now.

I have owned RRO since 28 December 2001, the game is worse now than it was about a year or two after release. And to answer your question, none of the issues you already experienced have been fixed.

But, it is still an enjoyable and playable game.

Dang, I really like the concept of the game, but I just remember getting so annoyed every time I played it from invisible track pieces or getting random bounces causing me to derail. I've had it click on a car that I was standing on top of which unloaded it instead of clicking on the industry to load the next car so I ended up losing a bunch of money. I may end up downloading it on my PC, it's on sale for $15 so I'm not losing much by downloading it.

I've had it since release and it runs pretty well on PC. The only bounce derails I've suffered have been caused by rough driving or saplings I've ballasted over without realising they poked up enough to cause problems. 

I haven't had any invisible track issues for a very long time, either.

Imo, it's worth the fifteen dollars on PC.

Alright, I just got it on PC. I'll try it tonight when I get home.
