Bobsled Coaster?

Kage079 · Jun 12, 2016

Hey everyone, I've searched but I have not seen any mention of it until now so I decided to post this here..

Do you think there will be any kind of Bobsled Coaster in the game? If it is included I won't be expecting it anytime soon, but I'd love any kind of confirmation [big grin]
I always loved Rct's flying turns and toboggan ride!

Cheers,

Kage

I really hope so too, I've not heard it mentioned yet either but I'm sure if we ask nicely... [happy]

There was one in RCT3 (also made by Frontier), so I hope there will be one here.

There are no signs of them yet. But there are no signs yet of a lot of things that WILL come [tongue]

I really hope those will be in the game, and since they are quite common in parks around the world i expect them to be in the game. Hopefully they will get confirmed soon.

Here is an example of one at Knoebels Amusement Park in Elysburg, Pennsylvania, USA:

or the La Vibora Front Seat on-ride HD POV Six Flags Over Texas:

Just when it starts to pick up speed it is practically stopped
It is too short a ride.

I've never ever been a fan of bobsled coasters... My least favorite thing ever. But obviously it would add an option for those who do want to use it.. And it IS something that exists in reality! So why not?

Kage079 · Jun 13, 2016

Wow! The one at Knoebels park looks amazing [big grin]
I also thought the Schweizer Bobbahn at Europapark was pretty fun, but I can understand why some people would dislike it [yesnod]

For any confirmation I guess there is nothing to do but wait

I love the Bobsled! Maybe for me the most favorite rollercoaster! So I sure hope it get's included...but I don't have any doubt about that! [cool]

Here is a verry good Bobsled coaster from The Efteling - Netherlands.

It's a rough ride with a nice speed. Because of the steel "track" its makes an amazing thunder like sound.

Nice, but for me I would like fewer braking areas.

i agree, i want all types of coaster, at least all the ones from RCT2, but the Bobbaan from the Efteling is more like the Flying Turns attraction of RCT2, wich is a version of the bobsleigh coaster, but i would seperate them, like they did in RCT2.

The brakes are there so the ride can handle a lot of trains, otherwise the line gets to long for this ride. But a track containing fewer or non brakes would be awesome to ride!

Vampiro · Jun 17, 2016

Maybe we need both versions indeed...

Personally i would love to have at least the "Efteling" versions. Which contains single cars (no trains).
Hope to see them being confirmed soon [big grin]

I've never rode one in real life. When I first tried building them in RCT I thought they were a joke [tongue] very scary not being able to have any big hills lol. But they can be fun to build once you get the hang of it, I like pushing the coaster to its limits in the game [up] The Efteling is rather boring, but the Knoebels one looks cool.

How about the Virginia Reel? Those were great from RCT and I love seeing older rides.

The rides at the Efteling are not the most trilling rides in the world, bit they are the best. The theme and the story is what the rides at the Efteling make so good.

Even though they are not really important to me, I would enjoy them in game! had a bobsled coaster in any big park I made in RCT3. [yesnod]

I agree, as much as i love "De Efteling", the bobsled coaster isn't the most exiting ride they have. Still i would love to have it in Planet Coaster, especially the Efteling version since its quite different from regular coasters as it doesn't have "trains" but just single cars like real bobsleds.

Hopefully they will come...

Same here, they always were my "main attraction" in my snow/ice theme.
