EEP 17 Eisenbahn.exe Professional – Aufbau- und Steuerungssimulation
EEP 17 eisenbahn.exe professionalThe Leading Railway Construction and Control Simulation
With eisenbahn.exe professional – EEP you can create complex railway worlds from your PC or laptop. You modify the terrain, design mountains and valleys, equip your facility with real estate and set up a sophisticated traffic system. The various traffic lanes can then be populated with rail and road vehicles, which can be regulated with a sophisticated signalling system. Air and sea traffic is also represented. However, the focus is set on the railway world with steam, diesel and electric locomotives, as well as passenger and freight cars, all available in a wide selection. In addition to the high quality reproduction of the rolling stock, which aims to be faithful to the original, EEP offers a great depth of play with endless possibilities for building and operating a great network with complex scenarios.EEP EISENBAHN.EXE PROFESSIONAL 17 – NEW

A bit on the pricey side at the time of review (>£50) and i was very sceptical but i decided to give it a go. I am only 1 hr in and have barely scratched the surface but I am very impressed already. Coming from the Transport Fever/Tycoon camp there are many comparisons but EEP offers a lot more if you want to be creative and create a realistic world. I would say that TF/TT is more of a resource management game at heart whereas EEP is more about building a realistic model railway and you can actually control your trains directly so you can do a bit of the old shunting of cargo yourself and there are also timetables.
The only downsides i have found so far is that the fan-base is predominantly German so there are limited English speaking videos though the tutorial videos and manual included with the game are second to none. The other downside is that camera manipulation can seem a bit clunky but that is really only because it differs from the generic style of camera control you get with most games and I am getting used to it already.
If like me you are on the fence, then i suggest you give it a go and you will be surprised at the detail involved and how professionally it has been put together; definitely worth the money; you get what you pay for.

90% Positive, But some bits need a look at
TLDR - If you like OpenTTD, Transport Fever, Model Railways, Steep Learning Curves, Grab it
For the price tag of over £50, there are a couple of bits that would need to improve before I could recommend buying it. Some things that are missing, or not obvious, that could do with looking at.
Firstly, the camera movement is non intuitive and there are much better examples of 3d camera movement in nearly every other game.
Even though it says its in English, none of the assets are translated (so prepare to spend more time scrolling through the lists than you should, to find what your after)
For 2022 and £50+ the graphic quality is below what i would hope for/expect, not bad but not great.
In regards to rolling stock available, there is a decent selection so my fears of what you would call a demo's worth of usable stock was not realised.
I Would have put this at thumbs down, and will if certain fixes don't arrive i will change it to a thumbs down, but this game is a recommend if you are after what it offers because there is not really any other alternatives out there... At point of reviewing, I'm not going to give it its first negative review, Because on the whole for what I have seen so far Its a good investment. Your getting a train set simulator.
