First update of 2018?
- Thread starter Robert K
- Start date
I can understand that, for say, a new ‘Feature’, which may break the game once introduced, and that’s why a certain amount of ‘In House’ testing is needed, but not for certain ‘Flat Rides’, as I understand it. (and that’s what I look forward too the most [happy])
But I beleive I’m right in saying that back in the ‘Alpha’ days, it was stated that all that was required to test the Engine (as it were) was one Shop, one Coaster, and one Flat, and any future additions of this sort would not require ‘testing’ as they use the same Mechincs (or something like that [big grin]) so to be totally secretive on this aspect (new Flat rides coming) I don’t quite understand.

Well they did mention that path auto-tunnelling was supposed to come with the update that came out with the adventure pack, but it wasn't quite ready, so we might be seeing that come through pretty soon 
Yeah, I'd say we're likely to get a bug-fix update in the next couple days/weeks, which might include that feature release.

I think that the most logical gameplay update Will be photo booths which may or may not be chargeable.
Hopefully we won't get another theme pack and instead get meaningful update on gameplay like sideshows. The problem with sideshows is that it would change core gamelay so would really need to be a Free update but would take a lot of time and frontier will need to find a way of monetising it.

If you want a gameplay update you will not get rides, shops or sideshows.
But you will get better camera controls, edit behaviour, adjustable values of which I'm all in for.
open the rides without tests will be the best in this update
Yes, and intellectually, I understand the secrecy. But emotionally, I think it would way beyond cool to see just a couple of "Here's what we're working on" pre-production sketches of themes and rides (with no guarantee they would be released, similar to the pic they showed us of the dozen or so sci fi themes they were thinking about) or even perhaps a contest or vote thing for the next flat as they did in the past. I believe that would really add some excitement to the boards again!
My vote would be for a real grand carousel!!!
Yep!, as my mom used to say...Patience is a virtue!

That's right. Just be patient. If we get new content for the game, we'll eventually hear about it sooner or later, and that will be exactly when Frontier is ready to show us.
While i agree with this, frontier is waiting till last minute there should be at least a month in advance notice if not 2 weeks, not 5 days
