RCT3 Update

[T-bone 675]

I have found a picture on RCT3 from IGN that actually shows that when building a Roller Coaster, It actually gets Built the proper way. Ie: Supports than Track and all of that stuff instead of it being built at once. Check it out.

Its rather interesting for 3 reasons 1.Whats already been mentioned, the supports being built first, this means that there will hopefully be animation in building the roller coaster 2. The shadow looks as if the track has already been put into place, either its something wrong with the beta code, or its an invisible roller coaster 3.The track layout judging by the shadow looks rather interesting, hopefully this means that the layout wont be limited to merely straight track, curves and special features, it will have a completely free coaster desgin tool.

I can answer that question Nebu! Its not a beta fault in the game. I'v seen several gameplay video's, and it seems like the coaster track fades away when you zoom out. Reason: I'd say to improve the view of obstructed buildings or such around the coaster... Screammachine

Excellent, any closure on the other two points?

Well, It has been speculated that there are construction cranes being used when constructing a coaster. Just have a look at the attached screen. It looks like a crane is being used to construct the coaster but nothing of such is yet confirmed... And concering coaster building, just let me say it looks allot better. Its not paced together block by block, like in RCT1 & 2... Screammachine

Two days after the Claw! Hey, I wonder if they'll have all the most recent rides added into RCT3 such as Intamin Rocket Coasters, Gyro Swings, carnie rides, maybe even a rainbow! Does anyone actually know what's going in?

Check the Atari Community Forums for the game here. But i can tell you now it will have a Rotor. It has a big load of junk just waiting for you to read.

Thanks again mate.

I need a second opinion. Is this an Explosion as in a real disaster, or a show? I'm guessing it's a real disaster as i see no show stands. http://media.pc.ign.com/media/664/664146/i...mg_2353515.html Anyway tell me wht you think it is?

The people on the RCT2 community boards have come to the conclusion it might be a disaster. As it looks a bit to out of control to be a normal explosion. Has anyone else seen the lastest trailer? The one where they build rides such as the "Tug Boat", Rotor & Gyro Swing Thingy. It looks really nice! Worth the dowload. On another note *The demo wont be released untill Sep '27.... :mad: * Screammachine

Look at the sign on the tower in the picture. Seems like themeing of the ride and not a disaster, IMO anyway, why else have a sign stating DANGER?

its also for computers that aren't as fast etc etc, and can pan out easier, the performance

This is actually a new ride event element that they have put into RCT3. You can set the event to happen when a coaster goes over a certain part of the track. In the demo all you can do is the Oil one (which is in the pic) but there will be more in the full game.
