Bigger maps confirmed? In this beta video?

Ramm · Nov 8, 2016

I just saw this beta video on youtube

https://youtu.be/0L4Bd_QXiy8?t=2135

and I think this means we have bigger maps? Can anyone confirm? It certainly looks bigger, like the expected 4 times as big (2 times in both directions)

but I need to be 100% sure. Right now i'm 99% sure

in this video it also looks like its bigger https://youtu.be/kGDm8bHR45Y?t=10

That is HUGE!!! Amazing!

Curlyriff · Nov 8, 2016

Yep it appears what I had stated before with it being 4x overall when we worked through the calculation and what size we can create it is indeed huge and means we can reproduce park size wise almost any theme park in the world (bar Animal Kingdom).

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO

thats amazing

I honestly cant wait untill friday night when I finally have time for video games, those are gonna be 2 long days extra waiting for me

amazing that we finally have bigger maps, yes twice in both directions aka four times as big, thats great!

Yes definately bigger: https://youtu.be/0hTeOeZEa0Q?t=354

Awesome. I really hope that we can cut the entrance further back. Seems kinda strange entering the park that far in

have to agree with this, i hope they will update the map slightly

obviously the flow of guests is still coming from someplace but it would be better if the cave is slightly more back and looks more natural

but i love that the map is finally bigger!

Curlyriff · Nov 8, 2016

In the stream last night the entrance was much closer to the cave so maybe it is map dependant?

It'd be a good idea if you could delete the current entrance path as far as you like (to the bigger map limit ofc) & each bit of path you delete, it automatically makes the new, further back piece of path the main gates. Then you could choose how far in you want the entrance & you won't need to manually place the entrance gates as it automatically does it.

oh I didnt thought about this yet

yes I wonder what happens if you terraform that part of the map

bev1012 · Nov 8, 2016

I'd love to make this kind of park. But make a transport ride take people from the planet coaster people entrance round to the opposite side of the park to a proper entrance/mainstreet. So unless the entrance can be moved further back it's not really going to work..

Curlyriff · Nov 8, 2016

I think it would because you would still be able to go from the entrance to the perimeter.

To me, i just think it will be silly if we aren't able to choose it to be further back. I love the game, it's amazing etc. I just think if the current entrance placing is non-changeable to something like this below, then it's going to get a little annoying.

Curlyriff · Nov 8, 2016

Ah I see what you are saying. I don't think it is the end of the world but can see why you would like to adjust the positions.

This pretty much shows how big a space there is as well

One of the few who got access to the Beta early

Hum... how about we make a faux hotel, parking lot, and back lot around this part of the map IF we can't move the entrance at all that is, then just make a more rectangular map for the rest of the space or something along those lines there

Fender · Nov 8, 2016

I can't see why we wouldn't be able to move the entrance back. We have the object to customize where the entrance is, right (look at the bottom right on this video)? All we'd have to do is alter the terrain, remove some of the path, and slap down the new ticket booth/turnstile thing.

Stream · Nov 8, 2016

Check out De-Lady-Signer's video about the shops in beta. She shows that you can place down a park entrance wherever you want. I assume that means you can also move the ones that have been placed by default.

Honestly, that map size looks like the one from the alpha. It's only really viewable in the last shot so i could be wrong but it doesn't seem anywhere near as big as the others that have been shown.

Damn, i didn't even notice when i watched ctop's video. Okay, that does very much look like we'll be able to choose where the entrance is

Yea, just watched the video. It pretty much confirms being able to edit the entrance however on the alpine map she chose, whilst the buildable area looks big, it has the same white borders as the alpha. So maybe you can only have a bigger map on a couple of them!?

Palaber1984 · Nov 8, 2016

We should be able to connect to all sides of the park. Like in cities skylines you that map and can choose to connect streets in any direction

nodinawe · Nov 8, 2016

Unfortunately, the park size may be about the same for at least rides, since ctop tested placing a ride behind the entrance. This may not mean that you can't still build building behind the entrance, or edit terrain, but rides is a no-no.
