Bigger maps confirmed? In this beta video?

In regards to performance, it now has the option to limit the number of guests in the park so reducing this number should help performance on lower PC's. I just played the Alpine map and this was defently a larger map. What Frontier may of done is have different size park sizes from small to large, The only way to work this out is get the same object and repeat it x number of times until you run out of room and do this on all of the maps and it will give you the smallest to the largest.

Are you sure?

The "old" map is 500m x 500m.

Can you confirm that one is bigger then this? [wink]
 
I really think you need to, at the very least, edit the first post/title as this thread is HORRIBLY misleading. There is no sign at all of an increase in park size, just bad, misinterpretation of videos.

i dont know how to edit the title

this was before i had the beta so it looked like it was actually bigger. thats what the question marks are for

this thread was before the beta was released
 
I hope that this is just a beta thing, and then the land will get big again.

I also miss all the cool landscapes that was in Alpha. I hope they come back. That was one of my favorite things about PC.

They said the beta will include all content the full version will have. So I don't think the full version will have bigger maps.
Which really is a shame in my opinion.

But later on they added some other information :

River Rapids, 2 mascot's, 1 shop and other "bits and pieces" will be added next week.

I 100% agree that the small maps are not good. I want to start building but i dont want to start all over again next week or "soon" because larger maps are released. So i definatly hope they will be added next week.
 
There's no scenario editor like RCT3? Where you could edit the map size, entrance location, set entrance prices, etc.? In RCT3 you could make the maps up to 254 x 254. Are the PC sandbox maps smaller than the largest RCT3 size or the same?

They are like 10x smaller than in RCT3. This is a huge show stopper! They make a beautiful game and then kill it with one stupid decision.
 
I wonder why non of the developers answer to this thread...

I want to know if the maps get bigger or if they stay that small.
 
Yeah I was so looking forward to being able to make a good space between each themed section... I mean why have transportation rides if it's to move a stones throw away... Instead I just can't be bothered to even play the game as its going to feel far too cramped not to mention that this doesn't feel like a beta upgrade with regards to flatnrides I mean let's face it if you played alpha 3 you have played the full game really... Not happy
 
I feel the same way Cosmik. The small maps have just put me off playing it which I hate. Whilst I enjoyed alpha I looked forward to having at least 25% more land area in the beta/full release. I think this thread title needs to be changed to 'WE NEED BIGGER MAPS'. Even if it's a cheatcode with a warning.
 
I've been waiting for the beta to go live to hear about the status of map size before I purchased. Sadly, small maps is a deal breaker for me, like it was in SimCity.

yeah this basicly

Really wanted to start my park but if it's the same size as alpha there is no use to make transport rides or a new park yet

guess I will only play with the wooden coaster and maybe make a river rapids for now

But in order to make my dream park I need those bigger maps

At least make us able to unlock them with a cheat or something Frontier. Please!
