Dear Frontier Development Team,
We, as members of the Planet Coaster 2 community, are reaching out because of the deep love we share for this game and its incredible potential. While many of us have been vocal in our feedback, it’s important to understand that this passion comes from wanting Planet Coaster 2 to become the best theme park simulation game possible—one that sets the gold standard for years to come.
Why Communication is Key
One of the biggest challenges we see right now is uncertainty. Many players feel disconnected, unsure if their feedback, ideas, and concerns are being heard or addressed. There’s a real fear that the game may not receive the long-term support it deserves, which has led to frustration and doubt among even the most dedicated fans.What would change everything? Communication and long-term vision. Looking at Planet Zoo as an example, its seven years of continuous updates, DLCs, and improvements created a thriving community and a game that felt alive and ever-growing. We believe that with the same dedication to Planet Coaster 2, this game can evolve into something truly extraordinary. But for that to happen, we need clarity, hope, and a stronger partnership between the developers and the community.
Our Hopes and Suggestions for the Future
1. Open and Transparent Communication• Regular updates (even weekly, bi-weekly or monthly) about the game’s direction and priorities would go a long way. Share developer diaries, discuss why certain decisions are made, and be open about both challenges and successes.
• Teasers, Easter eggs, and hints about upcoming features or improvements would help reignite excitement and keep the community engaged. It would restore the hype and the anticipation that the game once received and make the players look at this game in a more positive way.
2. Involve Long-Term Players and Content Creators
• There are players, content creators, and theme park simulation veterans who have spent countless hours in this genre and are deeply invested in its success. They are willing to help—even for free—by sharing their insights, playtesting new features, and providing constructive feedback before public releases.
• Giving them a voice through involvement in roadmaps, early testing, and idea brainstorming would not only improve the game but also foster trust and collaboration.
3. Fixes, Updates, and New Features
While the creativity and visual beauty of Planet Coaster 2 are undeniable, there’s a shared feeling that the game lacks some depth and interactivity beyond building. Expanding gameplay opportunities could transform the experience. Here are a few ideas:
• Interactive Elements: modular restaurants and hotels, walkthrough attractions, on-ride photos, viewing points, playgrounds, climbing areas, customizable shows and events and more Management options for coasters and rides, such as customizable operations. Each of these features would add entirely new layers of gameplay and engagement and would add many new ways to play this game.
• More Guest Reactions: Let park guests respond more to interactive elements—reacting to water fountains, lighting shows, music, the weather, and creative player choices. This would make the parks feel alive and responsive.
• Depth and Customization: If ambitious features (like fully customizable shows) aren’t feasible, consider simpler implementations, like pre-set performance templates. Even simplified versions would add meaningful diversity and gameplay options.
• New Scenery and Features: Players love the creative freedom in building, but there’s always room for more scenery, objects, and mechanics to enhance park design and customization.
Keeping Hope Alive
Right now, many players are worried about the future. A game as ambitious as Planet Coaster 2 needs time to grow and flourish, but it also needs consistent support and reassurance from you, the developers. This doesn’t just affect this game—it affects the trust players place in your other titles, like Planet Zoo, as well.As a community, we know we have a part to play, too. Supporting the game—even during its early, imperfect stages—by engaging, providing constructive feedback, and purchasing DLCs is something we are willing to do. But in return, we ask you to meet us halfway: to communicate, to listen, and to give us hope for the future.
We believe in Planet Coaster 2’s potential, and we believe in you. Together, through collaboration, transparency, and commitment, we can help this game become something truly remarkable.
