Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 Hey guys, I'm here doing a small project. I'm in a hurry, so I'm going to keep the introduction short. This is a park that I'm making for one of my favorite bands, Metallica. It will be on a 105x105 slot of land. I hope to be able to get this project finished by Thanksgiving. Also, you guys are the only ones who get to see the updates! an older picture of Jump Into the Fire. Damage Inc = Food Court House of Memory's(memory remains) = Vekoma Madhouse.(watch the music video!) For Whom the Bell Tolls = Frisbee Jump in the Fire = vertical coaster
dmaxsba2408 Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 ...of my favorite bands, Metallica. Mine also. Good luck with your time frame. Hope you can make it happen.
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 22, 2009 Author Posted October 22, 2009 ^I finished that one park in 2 weeks, and that was 156x156! Heres some more pictures. Station view! Yes, I like this song, and I think st.anger gets way too much hate :/
the ghost Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Sorry TLM, but if you are metal you need some crazy guitar solos, something St. Anger lacks.
Stoksy Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Not a big music fan, BUT, the park looks really good. Is that I a woodie I see in the bottom right...
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 22, 2009 Author Posted October 22, 2009 @Ghost. Oh, I still like St.Anger. I don't care if its a new style, I listen from anything from Slayer to Queen to The Beetles to the Misfits. My taste in music is very open (I just hate most rap, and a lot of stuff that you here on #1 radio stations) @Stoksy. WHAT! Go get 15$s and go to your local target, go to the music section, and grab the Master of Puppets Album! LOL. More screens. trailer. One (couldn't think of anything else :/) overview enter sandman
CorkscrewFoley Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Not a fan of Metalica at all, but the park is really nice. BTW, your last few pics aren't showing. Can't wait to see more. One more question, what work bench are you using for the queues? I love that more than what we are given with the game. Cheers.
the ghost Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 I'm thinking the teaser is ride the lightening! (not much of a metalica fan either, but a slipknot park is doable maybe) anyway, keep it up. BTW, did you see Zobieland? The beginning of the movie with as the bell tolls was awesome.
Stoksy Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Stations look very blocky and bold... I LIKE THAT
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 24, 2009 Author Posted October 24, 2009 CorkscrewFoley - I made it. the ghost -no, its not ride the lightning. Yes I did see that movie, I was expecting soundtracks like Beyonce (garbage) and Black eye peas(garbage), but instead theres Metallica and Van Halen!. Also, the movie was funny! Stoksy - The funny thing is that I'm basing these stations and buildings from spotlighted parks Layout of ride you guys need to guess the name of it. I'll give you another hint. Its not on any of the new albums! Trailer layout.bmp
Vintage Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 The Day That Never Comes. or... Turn The Page. This park looks great. I especially love Enter Sandman.
Pure Impurity Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 I'm gonna say it's either Creeping Death or The Call of Ktulu. I <3 Metallica, by the way. Here's somethin', as I'm writing this, I'm watching Man v. Food, in which Adam's doing the "Four Horsemen Challenge". Coincidence?
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 26, 2009 Author Posted October 26, 2009 Vintage - no, no, and thanks Pure Impurity - BelgianGuy - No. ------------------ Hey, I have a question to ask. Does anybody like the look of this style I'm doing? Which is more interaction, not piling rides on the side, and using terrain with the rides a bit more. If you guys like this, I may take my major park (sunrise), and play around with it, to make it more interactive. (I've already started on that version BTW, just finished the whole entrance, and started working to the right side of the park) Oh yes. . . . . Battery. This has one of the highest "intense" ratings ever. Tieing in with my other B&M launcher. Must be those inversions
BelgianGuy Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Please sort out your foliage it needs work
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 26, 2009 Author Posted October 26, 2009 ^I'm sorry to say this (and it may just be me who sees this), but I can see that the foliage aswel as a bit of the area is unfinished. Also, I'm going to say this before me and probably some other people get mad. Don't do what I did and post just the negative stuff. Even if the park is worst that a dump. -Matt K.
Pure Impurity Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 I bet the next one is Fight Fire With Fire! Dueling coaster, perhaps?
BelgianGuy Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 I don't want to stress on the bad but I'm the teof guy that only posts something that's at least 95% done I see that you have a cool layout but you'll need to get the folige right to make it pop, my own weakness is foliage so I tend to be very critical about that specific subject And sorry to go off topic but if a screen in generally bad and I don't like it I'll say it no matter what(this isn't the case here, just the foliage needs work)
Tchu Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Nothing wrong with criticism, but sometimes, on this board, the criticism is a little blunt with no helpful nature to it. As a personally lousy player, looking to improve, I always appreciate to see when people say "I like this because the [insert building/ride/whatever] looks great and is very realistic" as opposed to just "I love it". The same is true (perhaps more so) for negative feedback. Saying "Your buildings/foliage/layouts suck" or "your rides need work" doesn't offer much insight. What's wrong with the foliage? What could be done to fix it? How would you do it differently? Or why does the layout suck? Too boring? Unrealistic? What changes could be made? It's those sorts of things that will actually help people make changes to better their parks. Personally TLM, I think your foliage looks good. Maybe not spectacular, but good. I know foliage is difficult in RCT2 because there's only so many quarter tile options, and if you choose custom scenery and what not to incorporate in your park, there's less spaces available for varied trees and shrubs.
Pure Impurity Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Actually, I think the foliage should be replaced with buildings. I think it would fit the theme of the song more, and you already have a Damage Inc. themed food court .
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Pure Impurity - I dunno about that being a coaster. Also, if I were to make buildings surrounding all the rides, then the park would be called "Metallica Lego Park!" Also, with Damage Inc. Food. To be honest, I have no idea why I made it like that, but I'm going to keep it as it is. That, and I can't really think of anything to add with the title. (Aswel as 1/2 of the songs) BelgianGuy - Well if you haven't noticed, I use a pretty stranded set of foliage. The tulip, the shrubs, the buschs, and two of the trees. This has been my default for almost a year now. I don't see why your complaining now! Tchu - I know what your saying, normally when I post (replying to a project). I try to make my views worth reading. If I don't like it, I'll say why I don't, and how to improve in most cases. UPDATE TIME! BelgianGuy, if you don't like it then heres a bunny with a pancake on its head! It looks lonely :/ A new meaning to the "big block of death"
Fat-G Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 This is really good. I love the Theming you have put into this.
BelgianGuy Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 I'm sorry but I'm still no fan of the foliage, make it look more natural, TBH I think it looks random use more quater-tile grass to fill up some grass tiles, also use more variation in land colours that often helps aswell But the layout is very cool and I agree some buildings wouldn't make it look bad
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 ^I'm guessing the bunny didn't get to you
themeparkman25 Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 I spy with my little eye, a custom supported coaster with TWO regular supports left! Tisk tisk. Just playin' Matthew, but kind of not really.
