Hey all,
Made a account just to post some questions. I am really interested in getting this game after seeing videos and reading up a bit, but the lack of available information regarding Planet Coaster features is unsettling. I have tried Google searches and forum searches looking for a simple FAQ/Q&A regarding the game. Perhaps I am just blind and there is one. If so, please point me in the right direction.
Questions
Q1: Will the game have the "always online" functionality that Elite Dangerous does? (Single player offline being dropped from Elite is one reason I ended up not buying it, but that game in an ugly can of worms I don't want to get into)
Q2: What is the general stance being taken regarding online functionality? Is it just for sharing creations, or will it feature the ability to create with friends?
Q3: Will I be able to accidentally, or intentionally, murder my park guests? (Very important lol)
Q4: Is this game going to have micro-transactions. If so, what kind? (Purely cosmetics or dlc pay walls) (Note: I have seen this discussed in other posts, but nothing definitive has been stated.)
That ends my most pressing questions. I REALLY want a good theme park building game, and currently Planet Coaster looks promising. I am worried about how Frontier plans on handling future dlc as I am not the biggest fan of Elite's model. It has me VERY anxious about pre-ordering. For now, I will be watching carefully as more details come out regarding the game. I have seen to many good games crushed by day one dlc, base content locked behind pre-order or "Deluxe" edition paywalls, etc. Forgive me for being so bitter, but the current gaming market has left me burned one to many times. Thanks for reading and any help provided!
