The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.

The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China's north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

yeah, lea-sad an old friend of mine bought that when it came out, incredibly hyped. Poor guy.

[-] Eco@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

fwiw i still have a strong attachment to the game and will play it every so often. i think it's fine, it just could have been great

i think it's fine, it just could have been great

many such cases

my idea for fixing spore: break it into three separate full sized games for MEGA SPORE

Cell/Creature stage: Spore, but far more fleshed out and only focusing on those two stages

Tribal/Civ stage: Civ 4, Caveman2Cosmos mod, up until space travel

Space stage: Stellaris

this will never be made but is fun to imagine

cell stage: lengthen cell stage from just a 15 minute minigame, with greater customisation
add the aquatic creature stage back in
creature stage is honestly not too bad, slightly more complex combat and social mechanic would be nice though
tribal stage could be more complex - more focus on base building perhaps?
city stage is way too quick, probably the shortest of the stages. again more focus on base building and more complex combat mechanics
space stage is pretty aimless, and managing a large empire is difficult when you're literally the only ship that can defend it. honestly if large scale combat was more of a thing it would be ideal
galactic adventures sucks

Have ya heard of Thrive yet? They're trying to remake spore and have been since like 2010. They do actually have a janky cell stage, and they're still working on it despite everything

[-] Eco@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

i've been keeping an eye on thrive, but idk one of the things i love about spore is how much character it has, and thrive just seems so realistic and serious
