Elsmere Adventure (Rct2 - Park)

[Costakid]

Ok, I don't realy like the park. The archy is blocky, plain, and unflattering. Themeing was poor and all over the place. Most of the layouts were ok (not as realistic as I belive they should be, but acceptable), but some needed some serious work, that being said, I love the layout of the Go-Gator kiddie coaster and the Suspended coaster and how it intertwines with the log flume (Ninja-esque).

 

With this new version I'd suggest loads of custom scenery, and a masterplanning. Plan out sections of similarly themed rides and shops and build in those sections. Now if you aren't having larger themed sections, thats cool, but I find having a masterplan helps a LOT when building. Also, it seemed you didn't have any shops, resturants or anything like that, but you could probably build those later. I saw some single tile uncovered stalls, but these aren't very realistic. A few stalls here and there (representing like stands or carts) are cool, but the majority should be in some sort of coof court or resturant. Having a masterplan will help with that too. Also, you have way to many coasters. A large park will need a good supply of coasters, but you were overdoing it.

 

I'm not trying to me mean. It's just constructive critisism.

While I respect your opinions I will say that this is my park, not yours . I am making it the way I want, not how you think it should be.

[Costakid]

^Perfectly understandable, just trying to give you some helpful hints. I still must strongly urge you to get some custom scenery, it is, IMO, RCT2's best feature.

Custom Scenery is nice but tends to cause Rct2 to have the error trapper come up more. If I decide to re-install Rct2 I think I might give custom scenery a try

i dont really like custom scenery because when it is in a park, everyone says ooo ahhh look at that cool scenery. now nothing is wrong with that, but i think people who look at a park should be saying oooo ahhhh at you park not your custom scenery.

in my opinion, custom scenery is just a kind of a cheaters way to get people to like your park.

[Costakid]

^What? How is custom scenery cheating? They should be saying "should be saying oooo ahhhh at you park not your custom scenery" What? What is a park without the scenery? Just a bunch of rides plopped down in a field. Custom scenery just gives you the ability to expand the beauty of your park far beyond what the normal scenery allows for. Just because people aren't content with the crappy walls and roofs that came with the game they are cheaters? What if the custom scenery had come with the game. Would people who used that scenery be cheaters? Does using custom scenery make the game any easier? No.

 

Besides, just because you have custom scenery, doesn't mean you know how to use it. Aswell, you can make good parks with regular scenery, but custom scenery allows you to make it SO much better.

 

Custom scenery is cheating? You don't see all of the real parks with the exact same themeing and buildings do you?

 

That was actually realy funny. Thanks for that laugh.

okay, first off, your making it sound like i said custom scenery is evil. i just think that it really shows your creativity if you use what is given in the game to make theming.

 

i also didnt mean for it to sound like i said custom scenery is cheating, it just doesnt show your creativity. in other words do you want to use someone elses great work? or would you rather try to make your own theming?

i respect your opinion and i think you should respect mine.

[BiCoastal Kid]

Can we not have an arguement over RCT scenery? I don't need to witness new lows in intelligence.

[Costakid]

"would you rather try to make your own theming?"

Thats what custom scenery is. Making you own. Besides, someone's "great work" is their own, and if you steal their entire building, that isn't right, but using better walls than the basic ones that the game provides will not automatically be "great work" and it's how you use the custom scenery that proves your skill, just like how you build your coasters that proves your skill. As I said before, using the regular scenery can still produce amazing results, but the awesome scenery available can advance your skill and your park far beyond the normal scenery.

 

However, it's obvious to me that, as BiCoastal Kid so kindly pointed out, this is quite a stupid argument, and no matter what either of us says, the other will not back down. So you go on making your mediocre parks with the regular scenery, and I'll go on making my parks (If I ever find the will to finish one of mine), with my custom scenery.

I think it shows more skill if you can create a great building without the need of aids...
