Will we be able to ask questions for the devs to answer before the streams happen?

As I'm sure you are all aware, 6 of the streams will be during normal working hours and therefore the majority (I hope) will not be able to get involved in these streams whilst they are live.

The more i read about it, the more i feel like i have to visit.

It's only a 1,5 hour drive from my home. And would be totally awesome to meet some of the Frontier Dev's!
Is it known yet which Frontier members will be there?

The Community team for sure :)

There will always be people on-site you can talk to (we're always up for a chat!) and we will be taking questions from the forums, Twitter, and Facebook to discuss during the livestreams.

I'm curious what the Community Streams are going to be. Are certain members going to be at the event, creating stuff live in alpha 3? Or were certain members given advanced copies of alpha 3? I figured it can't just be a booth that the public walks up to and tries the game, otherwise they wouldn't have said "well-known YouTubers and community members".

Would highly doubt there'd be any Alpha 3 playthroughs in the community streams as they'd want all new features to be revealed in the Dev streams. Could have a few who are attending Gamescom (the youtube/twitch types, not just a random gamer) be part of the live streams with Ed/Bo and co. and some who are streaming from their homes?

I'd think the first Dev Stream could be all of the new features in alpha 3 and then the following days could be going into more detail of those features and upcoming features they're working on. And since all of the new features would've been revealed before the first Community streams there wouldn't be any spoilers.

In other words, the Dev Stream schedule could go something like this:

Day 1: New Features in Alpha 3
- Park Management
- Blueprints
- Water
- Lighting
- Recolorable scenery objects
- Fairy tale theme
- Etc

Day 2: Park Management / Blueprints

Day 3: Water/Lighting/Scenery Objects/Theme

Day 4: Upcoming Features / things they're working on


Edit:
At least I'm hoping that's what happens. My biggest fear is that the Community Streams will just be community videos from Alpha 2. Even though we've all seen them (sometimes more than once or twice), they might just want to show the crowd at Gamescom how creative you can be in the game.

The timing is not so good for me, BUT, I'm sure I can watch them later on Youtube :)

I hear ya, but this isn't a list of what I necessarily want or expect - it was just a guess to illustrate how the schedule could be laid out with an "overview" on Day 1 and days 2-4 going into more detail of each subject, whatever they may be.

Ahh come on. Think of the possibilities: Slowly encroaching sand dunes, logging around the park, river next to the park starts to flood, ocean next to the park starts to rise, maybe a large typhoon comes in, guests complaining it is too hot and the game begins to offer solar reflective unbrellas to cool down and also selling more water [up][tongue][up]. Definatley need some snow, and maybe a blizzard or two. [wacky]

Would actually be fun to modify the park to adapt to these situations. I can't imagine the programming though.

People who like "survivalist theme park simulation game" that is a niche market right there.

Thank God for YouTube.
I'm away for that weekend from first thing Friday morning so I'll miss most of these streams. It kills me knowing that you all will be finding out all this exciting news and seeing all these juicy new features while I'm missing out (but having fun). I think I'll have to drink more that weekend to cope lol.

This made going to Gamescom interesting to me. Let's see if there is a way I can visit you guys!
If nothing works out at least there's the livestreams.
So excited to find out what's up next for planet coaster!
