I remember posting months ago, claiming I was re-building all my parks, once 5 * and had the cash to close them demolish them and rebuild them to the highest standard.

Well how things changed over time. All the new content since then has made re-building even more fun. Well apart from learning the hard way that re-building all my parks without Expedition, research and fossil centres was a bad idea. Because once the new DLC's came out I was suddenly aware that I needed all five islands to have the centres in place to get the unlocks. Oh well.
So over time and enjoying each update and DLC, I have once again recently begun to re-build each park again.
I don't want to dwell on the fact that I cant sandbox each island, so I will just say that re-building and operating each park has become easier with the new feeders and genes I can use. Plus each time I build, I get new ideas and am able to build better I the limited space. I have learnt how to cram 3x Large power stations, an incubation lab, ACU, ranger, expedition, research and fossil centres and the required storm defence and shelters into as little space as possible.
So far, as expected Matanceros is always a pleasure to build on. Muerta lacks true space with its layout and hills. Tacano is slightly better and the weather is great. I have tried my best on Sorna but the storms really start to grate on me.
And today I have gone back to Muerta East. So far it has to be my second favourite Island to build on. Great space and shape, flat and weather no worse that normal Muerta. I have had a lot of fun. Demolishing the hap hazard park I built in the beginning, and really concentrating on making a beautiful park. I would recommend anyone with the DLC to come back here and enjoy it a second time.
One question if anyone else has any thoughts. I have built without the "off grid" expedition, research and fossil centres. I'm thinking that they would only serve purpose for what Dr Wu was up to. And now I will never need them again. Counting the fact that the five original islands have these buildings for any future DLC's. Not sure at the minute, so I did plan them in, and only a small amount of demolishing could bring them back. Any thoughts?
