Last time I went to Disneyland Paris, everyone was queuing perfectly apart from (it seemed) a lot of Spanish families. One woman was hitting me in the back of the legs with a pram in the Phantom Manor queue because she was trying to push past me. I was under the assumption that the Brits are world class queue masters, but the French, Germans, Italians, even a few Americans, they all queued nicely.

Ohhhhhhhh ! It's 100% off topic, but your post made me think that we could have different voices for the guests.
Several languages (or at least different accents, like voices in the game "Tropico") since guests, in themeparks have all nationalities.
That's all, sorry about the "off topic" [big grin]
And the accents should be more varied once we build a hotel
At this point, I feel like someone should start a thread that just lists all the requests we've made so far, just so they're all in one place for the devs to look at. We are coming up with a lot of ideas.
I agree. This was definitely missing from RCT3 that I enjoyed in RCT1. The line for my roller coaster (assuming good ride statistics), should be much longer than a flat ride. Peeps should seek these out as they do in real life. They are the focal point of every park.
In RCT1 roller coasters were a major source of income if you had the train capacity to support a lot of riders. In RCT3 roller coasters had similar income to thrill rides despite a significantly greater build cost.

I agree that I want to see more realistic queues. I want to see theming and TVs along the queues. Also having wait time signs would make it better.
Cattlepens!
(I completely agree, but it's existence will depend on how they've designed the game and paths)

There's queuing like a Brit, then you have the Swedes, "Give me space"

I've been in a queue before and had someone standing too close to me, and in the classic british way, I stand there silently, uncomfortable and frustrated, but far too polite to say anything.
I shamelessly robbed these images from Google.. So, credit to their respective owners..
THIS is what queues should look like...
You get the idea of course!!

Oh man, the nightmares are returning. I remember having to wait 2 exactly on that queue to go into SAW on halloween. All that zig zaggin over the "themed" metal walls. Super boring.
SAW was great though, I dont know if 2 hours great, but pretty fun.
And yes, we need thinner paths for queues as an option (maybe we can put any width we want know, just like the normal paths, so who knows). Queues are never as wide as the RCT paths. You can barely fit 3 people side by side in every theme park ive gone, and sometimes its even thinner so it barely fits 2 persons).

Yeah, the majority of queues for big themed rides have indoor queues in its longest sections. I think the only theme park (more like amusement park) ive seen with large stretches of queues in the outside for their big themed rides is Thorpe Park.
I want a building system like the sims 4 and then be able to build queues inside the buildings. As stated above a lot of queues are outside but covered. So don't know how that would work in it would be the same building system as i mentioned or just placing roofs... I want to be able to make queues realistic and not wide unlike in all RCT games.
Yup, this is what I would be very happy with... Thanks for the pics champ!
Blackpool Pleasure Beach is another one, but only in the Summer it seems. I went on the 25th of Oct (for my 27th, my idea for Blackpool, partners idea for Pleasure Beach, not quite sure who "won" that one) and it was dead in the morning, but queues soon picked up by midday.
Thorpe Park, Drayton Mannor, Alton Towers, Oakwood, Chessington, LegoLand Windsor to name a few ALL have (a majority of) outdoor queues... And then wonder why they are quiet in bad weathers lol.
Yep, that seems super strange. lol
Angelis you should be consultant to the dev team in my opinion[yesnod]
We are all kind of "volunteers consultant" to the dev team, especially on "suggestions" sub-forum right ? [big grin]
