Subject - Global Rails: Revolution [2.0.3]
2.0.3 is a major update for Global Rails: Revolution that will add the long-awaited mission mode, electrification, over 15 new trains, and a variety of large-scale city improvements. It was planned to be released in September, but was pushed back several times.
So, where is it? This is a question that’s been plaguing the community for months, and the truth is, it’s still in development. We started this update shortly after 2.0.2 was released in August, but over time, more and more was piled onto it until it became the biggest planned update for the game.
A week ago, we set a release date for December 4th at 3PM EST, confident that we would be able to finish the update in such a short amount of time. Programming mission mode, building entirely new skyscraper and shopping districts from scratch, wiring up the mainline with catenaries, making a fully detailed auto train depot? Who are we kidding, we couldn’t possibly do all that in one week.
Quite frankly, despite the short amount of time we have each day to work, we continue to set highly unrealistic goals for ourselves and completely ignore these factors. We deeply apologize for the absurdly long delays and hope you can forgive us, as we will be taking a more logical approach at planning out updates in the future and making sure we are as transparent with our fanbase as possible.
As always, we truly appreciate your support, we wouldn’t be where we are without you! We’ll be back very soon with more update news on our official Twitter page, so make sure to follow us there!
