Welcome to transport tycoon deluxe a game about moving goods and making money! Today we push it to the extreme by inviting 64 players to partake in train based battle royale where the last company standing with the highest company value wins. Players are eliminated when 10 of their shares are bought out by the competition. They have the ability to buy their own shares back but the best way to protect yourself is to raise your company value and as a result the price of your shares. Our players will be doing this by making as much money as possible by moving the worlds limited supply of resources before someone else takes them.
OpenTTD is a business simulation game in which players earn money by transporting passengers and cargo via road, rail, water, and air. It is an open-source remake and expansion of the 1995 Chris Sawyer video game Transport Tycoon Deluxe. Originally the game only allowed 15 companies in multiplayer and no way to buy out other companies. So we decided to rewrite the source code of the game to allow us to have over 100 players! So today we pushed this retro game to the limits by turning open ttd into a battle royal game! A huge thank you to EXcEptik for spending over a year to bring this project to life.
What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.

*WHO DO YOU THINK WILL WIN OUT OF OUR 64 COMPANIES!* *This project has taken over 1 year to make into a reality so I hope you all LIKE it and leave a comment!* And remember In pubg you can only have 99 deaths per game. In Open TTD We can achieve 100,000 deaths thanks to some bad train signals...
You say 6 years but the video shows five, what is it now
0:08 it sounds like you're saying "towns and titties" 🤣
Rip bobstinks
@@weirdidiot4616 There was a mistake in the setup and it was actually 8 years before we could buy shares, not 6.
@@GerrardGBalright, thanks
Buying lots of trains and stowing them in hidden depots seems like the OpenTTD BR version of hiding in a bathroom until the zone closes in. A legitimate strategy.
Bush hider strat
It's a legitimate strategy!
I do that in Fortnite XD top 5 every game LOl
rrat
@@Lorijenken i've done it and a couple of times somehow the other remaining 5 people killed themselves and i got first place lol
This was a fantastic event! A massive thank you to @thespiffingbrit and the team for putting it together. I have played OpenTTD and it's predecessor on and off for over 25 years and I have NEVER played a game of it like this one before. Also what a cracking video! Fantastic!
Hell yeah Hellish! I hope those likes go up so you can get like 4 family chicken dinners!
Halfway there
The goat
Are you going to put your playthrough in your channel?
If you recorded your PoV I am quite sure there are viewers that would be interested to watch them :) GG and well played (cheese withstanding :) )
I'm just appreciating the fact that Anime Girl Coal Mine Inc. survived to the end despite being in the red the entire game.
They had the Power of anime at their side😂
Its probably because they couldn't show their 'other' profits for legal reasons.
it's the power of friendship
@@nynvib276 one of the workers was interviewed by the competition runners, and their responses are just multiple variations of "cunny", "need correction", and "uoooh", before they were forcibly sent back to the state-backed mental ward and was never heard from again
@@azizabdul8914 UOOOOOOOOOOOH CUNNNYYYYY 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
If you'd told me twenty years ago I'd be watching TTD in a competitive setting, I'd call you a madman.
I actually rather enjoy this "Spiff roasts the players while not playing." format. I mean I enjoy a perfectly balanced exploit as much as any other red-blooded tea-drinker, but this... This is nice...
Yes he is a great commentator
The $1 Billion OpenTTD Battle Royale Competition
I do too. However I'm on the fence in regards to him snitching on Sus(about vehicle inflation plan and about renaming) in main chat to "nerf" him.
Woulda been a competition for 2nd place if spiff was playing
Id watch spiff do this with most games haha. Quite pleasant to watch and you dont know when the chaos will start cause its not spiff messing with stuff.
As the CEO of Anime Girl Coal Mine Inc, its good that spiff didnt see that the cause of the company value crash was me being unable to fix a train entanglement due to being at max loan and not being able to buy new rail tracks 😅😅😅 We are also proud to say that the company was responsible rebuilding THE GREAT FUHILL RAIL BRIDGE after it got thanos snapped.
You are the goat
Was the company a reference to "coalgirls" (anime subs/torrent) ? xD
Sending Anime Girls to the coal mines. What a brilliant idea. Bravo 👏🏼
The Editor making Yorkshire Teas Bankruptcy increasingly big while Spiff ignores it was just peak comedy
What an eFFing delight to watch. It looked like an Epic battle. love Spiff being the sports reporter. Epic :) !
Thank you friend this means a lot to me and the team
i liked it until he started to snitch on players , he should stick to comentating.
14:44 I'm imagining Spiff sitting at his desk behind his microphone for several hours recording this trying to get the perfect pitch and tone.
The $1 Billion OpenTTD Battle Royale Competition
It's hard to value Spiff's commentary when Sus transport took the lead shortly after he shamed them.
Lol, yeah. Sus is doing pro start and Spiff has no clue 😂
Very sus how they climbed so high so quickly.... :p
@@redslime6390 We made so many changes to the economy that they were at risk of unexpected maintenance costs. I did however miscalculate that they just ran pretty much all their trains on the same track to keep costs down relative to others
To be fair the chaos energy of that one is astronomical
@@thespiffingbrit regardless of the economy, just think about build order to get income asap. ofc you build trains before completing the route, while you build rail they are loading.
This may actually be my favorite Spiff format yet. Absolutely brilliant watching him cast a match and getting direct insight from the "players" in real time. Also props to Ocean having a perfect service record and being very aware and proud of it
Never thought I'd see competitive Transport Tycoon. It's usually the ultimate chill game for me, just hanging about, slowly building up the networks and making bank. This... is not a way I thought to play this game. It's highly entertaining to see though.
If I remember, the PS1 version of this game have you compete with the AIs in sort of campaign mode. Of course nowhere near as intense and bif as this was.
Spiff, as much as I love the exploits (and I do), I'm also really enjoying the PvP/commentary videos you've made. The marble racers, the 4v1 Skyrim hunter's challenge, your 2v2 Stellaris collab and now this battle royale are great fun and a worthy amuse-bouche for the main course. BTW, will we ever see the LTT tea-cooled PC hit your channel? Or did Bad Things(tm) ensue? Thanks for all your work!
I half expected coffee to steal the day from tea, but then hell itself rose to say no. A very spiffing ending!
Right? Sadly I didn't know about the buy train to cheese value thing. So i lost. I could have buy 50 more trains easily and stay ahead
I've never even heard of this game, and I didn't think there was a chance in hell that I'd watch an hour-long video about a game I'd never heard of... ...but holy fuck was it captivating from beginning to end, lmao. Spiff, your commentary throughout this video was beyond excellent and made a potentially boring, complex concept both interesting AND relatively easy to understand. Loved this video, and I love this format. Really hope we see more like this!
Great thing about OpenTTD? The game's free now, since it's Open Source. :D Happy transporting!
@@Shenorai ty!
@@ShenoraiI saw that there’s multiple places to download the game so do I get it off of steam or their website?
@@boombop4980 I recommend Steam, just from personal experience.
You can also play on your phone if you really want the game to consume every moment of your life. XD
This was great! I don't know if Spiff has done e-Casting for anything else, but I know it's not an easy thing to do. Lots of research, lots of knowledge needed for the game (especially strategies), the ability to interview well, and all that while keeping an eye on the game.
IIRC, he used to do (and sometimes still do) casting for CSGO
As a participant (and possible winner) of this, I can say it was a lot of fun taking part and love seeing this from a different view than I had at the time!
Spiff seems like the type of guy that could ask for an army of his fans and they would be battle ready by that night
He would have my sword
@@osets2117and my bow.
@@danielled8665 and my corset.
And most importantly, my China (porcelain for the uninitiated) hey
@@convergence1point nah man you bringing the entirety of the country of China, heck yeah lol
I think this just shows that we need more tourneys with Spiff as the commentator. Brilliantly done. Incredibly engaging.
Having been part of this, I have to say major props to Spiff's commentary and the editor(s) for this video.
I was rooting for you as well as one other company.
I wasn't expecting this to be as exciting and gripping as it was. I'm not a TTD player, but I was hooked watching this. Spiff did an amazing job as host here too, keeping an eye on everything without getting too deep into the weeds. I would gladly watch if another one of these happened.
I have never before enjoyed something like this ... shows how good commentary can make even a Train Tycoon simulation epic. Well done sir!
Hey now! This isn't a train simulator, it's a transport simulator! ...it's just that trains are so much better than all other types of transport that it's not even a contest.
Sus is a legend player lmaoooooo, buying trains to tank up his value only to bite him in the ass in the end.
Spiff: "boats are such a bad investment!" KZhead: shows an MSC Cruises commercial it just works
One of the players here, This was a great experience and i loved every second of it. While i didn't win, im happy getting 4th place and being in the video. That's why i transport for you Albuquerque! Better call Sa'll goodman transport.
I did not think I would enjoy an OpenTTD BattleRoyale but spiffs commentary has done it. So good I was on the edge of my seat. I hope this will be a yearly / monthly event.
I am a fan of Femboys Transport inc. I am really hoping they can pull off the win. Spoilers. 36:40 They could not. They were bought out 3rd as soon as the shares opened up. You did well Femboys. May your company RIP
I was hoping too, what a shame.
Femboys for the win !
Meanwhile in the future: Beating Starfield by turning the weakest pistol into the Death Star! Starfield is a perfectly balanced game with no glitches or exploits.
Lol 😂 great clickbait you win the internet today
I loved this, please do more videos with this sort of goofy content! It's a great break in the routine of the exploit videos, and it introduced me to a game I had *no* clue existed but is absolutely fascinating. I did not expect so much drama from a game with the vibe of the old Rollercoaster Tycoon, but it was absolutely cutthroat!
The most wholesome and less toxic battle royale i ever seen, good content.
It seems that the spiff co. community is just generally proper and polite, as all Brit’s naturally are. He did a factorio game similarly to this and it had a similarly good level of politeness if I recall it correctly.
I used to play this game as a kid. It really warms my heart to see that it has not faded into obscurity and that there are people out there that love to spend time on it all these years later. You really made my day thank you very much.
Love that the Anime Coal Mine survived to the end. Guess those ships weren't so terrible, huh.
To Whoever Sees This Message: please send help! I have escaped from Spiff’s dungeon to tell you all those AREN’T stock photos! Please, Spiff said he would let us out if you like the video. Dave cannot eat coal anym... I mean all is well!
I gotta say I love reading the in game chat just as much as Spiff's commentary. Seeing Sitford going "Who the hell earned 100K already" had me rolling.
I love how this game makes players apply basic economic and financial principles. For instance, sus didn't know about depreciation of assets and made him lose tons of money. On the other hand, Hellish Inc. made a fabulous move at the end.
Basic economic principles don't really apply here. Buying other companies don't increase your company value. Sus didn't lose all that company value from having trains lose 100-200k every few months. He bought shares and unknowingly tanked his company value.
sus was well aware of the value drop on trains - that's not why he lost. He spent his wealth knocking out opponents, but that dropped his own value so low that others could work together to force him out.
I may not have made it far, but I am proud of my phallic railway
o7
ngl this is the best battle royale ive ever seen. the sneaky strats . the ruthlessness. amazing
This was awesome!!! Please do it again at some point I loved Transport Tycoon Deluxe when it was first out, and the people at OpenTTD are doing a great job of keeping it alive and honest to the original doing Chris Sawyer games the notoriety they deserve!
What a fun concept. You've got a huge community, so I imagine you could do a lot more huge projects like this.
I didn't think watching people play a rail road game would be so engaging, but I couldn't stop watching! Great video!
I now want a news segment every morning where spiff does this for real companies.
This is a lot of fun to see, I've been playing since the original transport tycoon deluxe and play on pretty brutal settings to keep things fresh but never seen openttd turned into PvP before. Great idea. It's also funny seeing a bunch of them deal with track maintenance like that for the first time.
This was even more enjoyable to watch than I thought it'd be. Spiff's commentary is great and really had me watching until the end. Hope to see more of these types of turnys.
This was like watching an Esports match, except it was actually fun! Well done, Spiff. I raise my cup of Yorkshire Gold and salute you, sir.
Thanks to all the players who made this video possible! It's very entertaining to watch spif play Sims involving real people. Hopeful for more content like this!
Your videos are an absolute joy to watch! You have a knack for finding the most interesting and obscure aspects of games and presenting them in a hilarious and informative way. I always look forward to your new videos, and I never fail to learn something new. Thank you for all the laughter and knowledge you bring.
This was really fun, it may have been about 13 years since I last played this game but it's still a great deal of fun to watch, especially with this twist on things. Good stuff
Thanks Spiff, for any and all OpenTTD content! Keep it up!
This... NOW THIS is what you call a high quality action packed battle royale!
That was actually amazing to watch! I didn't expect an OpenTTD Battle Royale to be so yield so many different and complicated strategies.
This was honestly one of my fav watches thus far, would love to see some more like this once in a while :)
Take a shot every time spiff says "obscene"
Now, now, that would be an obscene number of shots.
25:20 Canpool Bridge Sucks was named so because they were the only town on the line that refused to let me to build them a bus service to grow the town faster, regardless of how many trees I planted for them. Bastards.
Gotta respect Spiff keeping his OpenTTD skills sharp inbetween Jingle Jams 💪
I know these are certainly very difficult to set up, but I really enjoy these massive multiplayer videos.
Not sure i've ever heard Spiff swear before. . . . "Swindon Sh*thole" had me in tears of laughter
Could you please censor the foul language? It's s****** Shithole actually
Yeah, it’s something you see more in streams and collabs, lol.
I can genuinely see a future playlist for this channel of commentaries! There’s just so many opportunities, Minecraft tribal or survival island would be decent, a 5 player Skyrim random kill npc event, but OpenTTD for the win, solid content.
This video taught me the way economy and corporation works way much more than most material I've learned
This was amazing to watch and a lot of fun (but not quite as much fun as drinking tea). More of that please!
Spiff was such a great commentator for this. He should do more in this format.
Transport Tycoon Delux was my favorite game in middle school - I played the hell out of it - I have OpenTTD and it's so much more expansive...I love that you're doing a video on it!!
This is effectively watching a spreadsheet with spiff commentating over top of it with clippy doing some funky flips in the corner for the adhd people. I dig it.
What an amazing grand prize! I absolutely *love* Nando's Peri-Peri Garlic Sauce. Spiff is such a lovely human being.
Spiff torturing other gamers is quickly becoming one of my favorite things.
It's refreshing to see a new and original concept, hoping to see more of these !
That was actually surprisingly entertaining to watch!! Congrats to the winner!! What a rollercoaster that was, watching stocks drop like flies, no wonder people get addicted on it
Love to see OpenTTD, and great that Hellish clutched it! Well deserved 🎉
57:09 Spiff, Nandos is neither spanish nor english in origin, it was founded in South Africa by a Portuguese and a South African (based on Mozambiquian-Portuguese cuisine) and later expanded to the UK.
First: Spiff, I could watch you doing commentary on games you're familiar with all day. Phenomenal video. CS would be enjoyable again, too. Second and last: the bridge wars was the "best" part of this video. Excellent.
Spiff, this was amazing. Normally I don't watch 1 hour vids in 1 sitting but this kept me hooked!
Then you couldn't handle History Time (3+ hr video).
"This is no family friendly match, this is STREET OTTD now"
I just hosted a drone meetup flying 24K drones at an abandoned nuclear plant, then went to Friends trivia with my girlfriend for dinner... And somehow, you made watching train statistics for an hour still a most memorable part of my night... I don't know how you do it, other than by being the spiffiest brit. Thank you for your videos man! :)
the entire concept of OpenTTD Battle Royal is amazing. I want this to be fleshed out as a real mode.
I was going to put this on in the background... was not expecting to be absolutely glued to the entire video. Fantastic event!
i kinda want Chris Sawyer to see this, to witness what has been done to his masterpiece in name of profit and entertainment. I may play TTdL / OpenTTD for years but god i am so bad i only discovered the 3 tile 2 station road in middle bus for growth/rep bomb from Spiff this year!!! i am useless at the game.
This kind of video is really fun to watch, could you do something similar with other games, like the organ harvesting one?
I played the absolute hell out of this game as a kid. Glad it is still getting air time so many years later
I can feel the Valefisk energy in the intro to this video. 11/10, would torture again.
This was genuinely very entertaining and interesting
I have to admit it was a good video! I do hope you host more for the videos, and maybe find a few other games that allow similar game play. You've been a great show host! Also should have been company 69 to win... just because it would have been nice!
It was riveting! I was glued to the screen the whole time. Good job on the editing spiff!
I've had an itch for OpenTTD, this makes me want to jump back in! Great concept, can't wait for more!
I really enjoyed this! But I was wondering (if you do this again) would it be possible to show the survivor's company values and profits at the end? There were still a few too many players for me to clearly read the graphs
Dang, I've been interested in The Hauling Hooligans since they were mentioned and been cheering for them since they made top 10 (because damn, I'm a fan of the How to train your Dragon franchise), so it was a real shame for me to see them get eliminated. But still, a very fascinating game.
This was a lot of fun to watch. I don't think I would've stuck around if it was uncut but this was a blast and a very well done to the winner. ;)
Absolutely brilliant! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I wish I could of Caught it live!
Lol my notification clipped your video head to "ive turned trans" 😂😂😂
This is such a good game! OpenTTD may just, be one of the games of a time.
I have never heard of Open TTD before. Somehow, this hit my feed. I watched all of it. It was great.
‘Scott Fail is gone’ A brilliant Scottish train reference name -ScotRail is the name of Scotland’s train company.
As the player who managed the original Scott Fail (not Sus renaming effort), that was exactly what I was going for. But obviously I went with the reference to ScotRails real name!
@@Scottland89 Haha nice one man. Sus obviously went for the Abelio approach and bought Scott Fail to strip it of a capital.
I fear for TLF now Spiff is showing an interest in transport franchises
First- er second anyway Legendary spiffing, Britt has blessed us with a new, never before seen exploit ahh truly balance as everything should be *“Sips Tea aggressively”*
that was an amazing game, and i honestly want to see this sort of content more often. you do so well giving the play-by-play!
This is THE most intense and cool battle royal I've eeeever seen! Amazing idea!
Imagine you own a train company and a competitor starts forcibly relocating every citizen out of the cities you operate in Also, considering how this game happened during WWII, it'd be really interesting to see a transport tycoon game like this but you must deal with being a business during war times. Perhaps in England or France
Jschlatt collab please. US vs UK challenge. Defend the might of Yorkshire Tea against Guns, Eagles and Cheese.
He stands no chance against my superior dastardly british train powers
What an amazing idea man !
Loved this, should do more things like this in the future. Shit was compelling af.
I have to say, i fully support this type of "racing" content, being a fan of racing and F1, the commentary is excellent, and I'd love to see repeat contenders in an economic battlefield.
Let’s go my fellows tea lovers another splendid video to watch by the spiffing brit
