what happened to audio?

Ok, so there is room for improvement. Apparently most of the devs who worked on PC1 did not work on PC2 resulting in a mess of a game. But, they are trying their best to fix it with free updates every month. The kerb toggle is coming this month, as well as security guards and Sci-Fi theming. If we make enough noise, they will listen to us.

still, the systems and coding stays with frontier. its not like the dev team of the first game deleted everything and left the planco 2 team with nothing to start with. its just another one of those aspects where they could have taken the first game, improved and build upon that. but no, its gotten even worse than the first game. the screams on the rides sound so cheesy, goofy, horrible and unrealistic. i just hope they come back to work on this too but i highly doubt it.

The sounds where Frontiers strong suit back in the day. That also goes for Planet Zoo. Lately, the sound quality has declined. I think it's because of their financial situations. Layoffs, so there are now maybe less expirienced people at work and they cut corners in time and quality.

As someone for whom sound is extremly important, I am mourning with you about how things are right now.

especially interesting is around the 30 minute mark.
i just dont know what they did to the audio with planco 2. feels like a step back somehow compared to the sounds in planco 1. tbh even the background coaster sounds in the menu sound better than the actual ones ingame :/
any chances we see an improvement here in the future?

Wouldnt it be so cool to get these behind the scenes dev vlogs again!

It would really help us see why they have chosen to do the things the way they have.

Maybe the first game is more polished, but it had several years of updates and DLC packs. It's not being updated anymore. No working water slides and pools. But, it has a lot of things that are missing in PC2 like scenery, building pieces, flat rides, tracked rides, and more. Both games feel incomplete at this point. RCT1 has stuff that 2 doesn't have yet, and 2 has stuff that 1 will never have.
