Planet Coaster, Holiday Update

Maybe I'm wrong but, here's an idea.

As you've read everywhere, management in this game is bad. Good news is that an update could fix this. But it would be a HUGE update that requires time for devs to develop.

Maybe Frontier should make a KickStarter project to ask for funds in order to make a really serious (and big) update for management. I'm willing to pay a little bit more to have true management in this game.

I'm not necessarily sure it's funds so much as time and effort.
 
Time is money. Why proposing something time consuming for free ? What's to gain ? The game has been well sold.
So don't expect devs to put 100 of hours for an update for free. It's either a DLC or something that will make money, if not they won't do it (in my opinion)
 
If they have plans to improve the management (either to a small or great extent) they'll do it with or without this supposed Kickstarter idea. Charging extra for what a few feel should have been in game already would result in a backlash. Yes they've sold well so far but it's still early days, the impression I get is they're still working hard to improve the base game to first off finish off what they may not have been able to complete before initial release and second to get on board those who are still on the fence. I reckon we've got another couple of months at least before they start looking at finalising their plans for future DLC/expansions.

I've already paid 37€ for something i dont think its worth it. The creative part in this game is amazing, but the management its just the worst thing ever done. In 10 years since RCT3 its management its still better than this. Nothing new, no hotels, not a logic guest brain... I think we already paid for that update, all of us, we deserve those free updates, thats what we paid for. I wont pay a DLC to fix something, I could pay it if it adds some content, I dont know new rides or coasters, ok, but paying for an update to fix something that was supposed not to be broken? No sir, you are wrong about this.

That worked 20 years ago. Nowadays game devs tend to support their games for at least a year or more, with free updates and such, which attract new players and keep the ones that already bought it playing (so studios can sell them DLCs and Expansions).
 
Don't forget that Frontier already earned more than £2,000,000 on the alpha alone !

If the "management update" in the future costs money... I'd seriously think about just waiting until I can buy the "deluxe edition" of the game super cheap (years down the road, if I even care at that point). The management and UI need tweaked, refined, and in some aspects reworked. Frontier knows it. We all know it. They need to fix it. Not sell it to us (again).

Oh my God !
I can not breathe.

Thanks ! Thank you so much for the slice of laughter !

After the free updates, after the paying DLC, after the scam of the "season pass", ladies and gentlemen, please discover the kickstarter campaign to ... update a successful game [haha][haha][haha]

Collider got most votes. The ride will be available in Planet Coaster as part of the Winter update on December 15th.

The poll is closed.
 
Guaranteed we will get all 4, given they will have developed all 4 up to the point of the end of the poll. Well... that is thinking that it takes a month to create test and publish one ride
:D
 
What is this "Collider" you speak of? At Cedar Point, we call it the Witch's Wheel [tongue] But in all seriousness, ya I'm glad to see the Collider won. I may be starting to venture into carnival territory here, and I'm being greedy, but I'd eventually love to also see the Himalaya,

and the staple of carnivals everywhere, the Gravitron. http://www.domainofdeath3.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/grav2.jpg
 
My vote is the Skizzer. Thank you so much that we can do it. [big grin][up]

What happens to the other 3 rides that didn't make the cut? Will they eventually be released? Will there ever be a bumper car ride in Planet Coaster? Every RCT game up to 3 has had bumper cars. Most amusement parks have them. My local park is getting bumper cars back next year, they last had bumper cars in 2009. They were gas powered 1992 and up, electric before that, but the new ones will be electric. They will be in a new location where a Top Spin was from 1998-2015. Now PC gave us a Top Spin but not bumper cars. Also, the other new ride at my local park next year is a Troika. That is called the Trihorse in this ride vote. I hope it makes it to PC. Theme Park Studio and RCT World have one, and RCT3 has a user made one.

They're probably going to be released later. It's always a good sign when they offer 4 choices...usually means they're all done anyways...so I think we'll see them soon enough.
