Multiplayer support

I think there should be a server where you can upload your park for other people to visit. It would be like a list where you can search for different parks and for users who create them. And if you create a park and upload it, you would get a reward based on the amount of people that visit your park. And people could maybe rate your park after they've seen it. If this makes it into the game, I hope there is a first person mode where you can walk around and get the full experience of someone's park.

Fingers crossed !
 
Multiplayer is not for me I'm afraid, but I'm not condoning it. If multiplayer is what you like, then by all means, but I prefer to play these sort of games on my own. I have no complaint about people making their own parks and sharing them with others, like we can in the other RCT games, by downloading them from a community site.

I guess the "new thing" is not about "sharing a save", but more something like : find some parks online, click on "visit this park" and visit the park in the first person view, in real time.

This can be new ! Not the "sharing file system" which is a bit outdated for this year. [yesnod]

Wow yes I want to just click and visit. I don't want to dowload put it in the correct map and open wait untill the game crash...
 
I Hope that your Friends avatars are highlited, if they visit your park to see when he is moving along.

Generally if someone other than your friends visit your park he should be highlighted

Haha, I had not thought about that ! It would be great to see our friends (highlited) to walk in our park when we are building it.

Amazing idea !!! [big grin][up]

Sooo... The best multiplayer experience will be:

- You can share your park in-game.

- You can visit parks of your friends/other players (normal cam)
- You can visit parks of your friends/other players while walking in it and test the attractions (first-person cam)
- Friends/Players can visit your park (normal cam)
- Friends/Players can visit your fark while walking in it and test the attractions (friends are highlighted, first-person cam)
- Build together with friends (max 2-4 players). (You need to be friends to build together!)
- Messages and updates/status of visitors (Option, toggle on/off)

There Must be an option to toggle on off, if you like to see them highlited. And an option if you want to see the speech balloons right above the guests, with his thought!
And if you don't want see speech balloons, you can see his message history by click the avatar.

Whahahahhaa [squeeeeee][squeeeeee][squeeeeee][up] Genius piece of art. It is art with words!
 
In my opinion a co-op system is something this kind of game should have.

I don't know how far you can go in this game to build a great and huge park. But imagine to build a very gigantic park with your friends.
- One friend is managing all the needs for your visitors like toilets, food etc.
- The other friend creates some nice buildings and decorates them in an awesome way.
- And then theres maybe the crazy guy who builds some insane Roller Coasters.
ALL at the SAME time! Wouldn't that be cool?

If this is not planned, we should be at least able to visit our friends parks and test the rides. [yesnod]

It is 2016 so yes... every game should have a co-op!
 
Co-op would be cool. I still hope for a competition mode. Maybe where your park would be paired up with a random park for a week. And you could track growth, visitors, revenue, guests satisfaction, and safety to make a score and compare the parks score. And whoever wins gets some sort of in game reward. This would be good only if it doesn't over-complicate the game.

Like a statue you can place in your park?

If I got involved with multiplayer, which I doubt I will, you would see something like this if I entered your park.

INFOS
Coasterbuff: is at your park entrance deciding whether or not to enter
Coasterbuff: left a message for you " Can you lend me some money to enter your park, I have lost my wallet?"
Coasterbuff: has entered your park and looks happy
Coasterbuff: has left a message for you "Thank you for the loan, I will send you a cheque later"
Coasterbuff: has just bought an ice cream from " The Ice Cream Stall"
Coasterbuff: is sitting on a park bench, licking his ice cream.
Coasterbuff: has gone to spend a penny
Coasterbuff: is walking towards the wooden coaster
Coasterbuff: has left his walking stick in the toilets, so is going back for it
Coasterbuff: has found his walking stick and is happy again
Coasterbuff: has just met Joel
Joel: is talking with Coasterbuff
Coasterbuff: has just entered the ride "The Death Coaster"
Coasterbuff: is crapping himself
Coasterbuff: is looking green
Coasterbuff: is not feeling very well
Joel: has gone to fetch the paramedic
Coasterbuff: is lying on a stretcher
Coasterbuff: has just entered the first aid room
Coasterbuff: is now leaving your park saying "That coaster was too scary"
Coasterbuff: thinks he entered a park from RCTW, with a coaster as weird as that.

I don't know if I would like the coop park stuff, I'm more of a fan of building a park then sharing it via a system to share it on. I am always worried it will turn out like Sim City where people will get into your park and start to destroy all your hard work by finding some way to get around not being able to build and all that.

Now I'm not sure what the best way of going about this would be but if MP is done right then it could be a blast for sure. "If its done right".

I am really not sure about co op in this sort of game either. As long as they had choices on whether to go full coop, "friends" coop or hide in your own park and don't let anyone in mode [yesnod]

Yes, you have to choose which mode you want to play. Singleplayer or coop (friends only or online). That's the best option. You can join parks of friends / players but not if they set a password. We hope Frontier would make multiplayer for us.
 
There should be:
  1. The Planet Coaster maingame
  2. A free Visitor-Client
  3. An official Live Server (or an user hosted dedicated Server)

After a Player has created a park, he can decide to put his Park online.

There are two ways:
  • Open the park while playing (a number of visitors can join / Player hosted)
  • Upload the Park to an official server (a huge number of visitors can join and of course the Park creator, too). Maximum 1 park / each player.

The Visitor-Role:
Before a visitor joins a park, he can pick a character or create one. He can take some things within the park like for example camera, backpack, Spray can [squeeeeee].
Every visitor got about 100$ to spend each day each park.
The visitor can:
  • walk around (third/first person)
  • doing rides (third/first person)
  • go shopping (food, souvenirs...)
  • rating rides and the park
  • do bad things like vandalism [pirate] (Spray can, destroy things, stealing, spread garbage...)
  • making photos and selfies
  • doing a job to earn money for example a cleaner guy, mechanic, security, critic...
Every visitor has a vault to store photos and souvenirs.
