Roller Coaster Tycoon games

**dashoe93** · 07-9-2007, 07:29 PM

I like the game a lot. The game itself sorta died off, but still has a fun concept. I have them all and my favorite is the second one. The third one is good for riding the roller coasters and such, but it lags a bit and takes awhile to load a park.

Discuss the old game lol.

The original was a groundbreaking game with enough expansion material to kill a baby. The second expanded on that concept and made it so much better.

Chris Sawyer is a god of simulation games for coming up with that himself.

The third.... I didn't like it too much. I played it for around a hour then got bored of it. Then again, it ran like **** on my computer. I may give it another run after I finish playing Stubbs the Zombie.

Hey DS, you have any of your old parks on you? Back when RC2 was released, I had a fairly badass modified version of Six Flags Belgium.

funny as you calling me DS (i dont mind) since i thought you ment DarkShark. I still play them game but not as much as i did a few years ago. I have most of the saved games and all the parks i made and crap from then. I hardly play the premade ones amd i usualy make my own with a few downloaded objects and rides. There are some great downloads from other sites, but i need to remember some of them. They made great objects and shops and crap like that.

I made a lot of rides, but WAAAY back then, they got deleted. But they were so old and werent that good.....since i dont know half of them. I have a bunch of good rides i made up. i could send some too you if you want. someof them are not mine, but are really good. just search the internet and youll fine some great rollercoasters and crap.

And there is this tutorial on how to make your own ride. takes a LONG time though, so thats why i didnt even try to. brb with linky.

I loved making my own roller coasters and I really liked seeing how well my park could make a profit. I wish they would make an updated version that was better than RCT3.

blargherness · 07-9-2007, 10:31 PM

Roller coaster Tycoon, Zoo tycoon, loved 'em.
I'm in love with the original RCT but I got RCT 3 for the random extras. Making fireworks was pretty cool though I don't/didn't see how it benefited your park. Making a doomed-to-destruction coaster and riding it first person to it's explosion was interesting. Creating roller coasters with unfinished tracks to deliberately harm park guests was fun. Was it me, or did they take away deaths in RCT 3? I swear the guests would die in accidents in RCT 1 but not in RCT 3.
Either way, great games.

God, that game is great.

I haven't played roller Coaster Tycoon in such a long time. I used to spend almost every day playing it non-stop when I first got it.

I think I'll start playing it again.

Chief0678 · 07-11-2007, 08:48 AM

I still play my Roller coaster Tycoon game. I still didn't get passed Katies World yet. It's been a while, but I still love the game, no matter how hard it is. The graphics may not be the best, but it's ok.

Katies World isnt that hard. (from what i remember a LONG time ago, beating The first set of parks) I cant remember the park since all my things got deleted and had to restart. I didnt feel like doing them again just because i knew them all.

I also completed Loopy Landscapes and working on Corkscrew Follies. The first one with the expansion packs have soso to challenging scenarios. The second one's Scenarios get a bit boring after awhlie since having them all to begin with doesnt make you want to do them. The third one's objectives are all completely different. You need to do three things three times, only they get harder up.

Any other info, just ask.

That game is great. I still haven't completed loopy landscapes and corkscrew follies yet though. Those parks where you have to finish developing the rollercoasters with highly intense excitement ratings are bitches.

exacly why i skipped them. Neverland park is nearly impossible. But then again, if you start creating other rides (costing money) you could start gaining profit to make other rides. Loans hardly cost anything. 10,000 as a loan costs about 16 dolloars a month. Stinks how they put intrest rates on RTC2. I just did the easy ones instead of the ones needing a certain length. Once you get a bunch of rides going for some cash, you will be able to have enough money to make such roller coasters.

It's a fun series, but I like the original with the expansion packs was the best because of all of the unlockable theme parks.

Telvanni_guard · 07-15-2007, 04:40 AM

I could ever figure out how to Sync up rides.

"Shuttle loops are godly whe synced!"

Great.. how do you do dat?

I miss playing that. Still have it for the Xbox. Don't have an Xbox anymore though.

sjoecool1991 · 07-15-2007, 02:11 PM

I can upload some of my tracks if you guys want.
We can exchange tracks.

**dashoe93** · 07-19-2007, 11:43 PM

bump because it's a really cool game.

ive havent really got to upload any rides, let alone them being good to my expectations. I want to show how good i can be at making rides. I dont know where to upload though. Ive lost all the download sites and forums ive had from another computer on favorites.

**Silver_Brian** · 07-20-2007, 12:10 AM

For some odd reason my new computer can't install the expansion packs. =/ Anyway, I remember Arid Heights was the was greatest fun to screw around in. I think my sister and I beat all the original scenarios twice since they all got erased the first time. Also rebeat almost all the orignals again on my other computer. Many hours were spent on that awesome game.

PS as a side note, has anyone played the Caesar series? Really fun as well once you get the hang of it.

masterhickle · 07-20-2007, 12:19 AM

I kind of lost interest after the series expanded; I never really liked any of the others as much as I did the original.

I always enjoyed designing my own coasters, and pretty much perfecting them - having a high excitement rating with a low to medium intensity and nausea rating.

I'd like to start playing again, but I can't find the CD for it =(

yeah, it takes about 3hr 20min-4hr 20min (depending if its October year 3 or 4) to finish an objective.

And what is this Caesar series? never heard of it.

Lightknight924 · 07-20-2007, 11:47 PM

With Rollercoaster Tycoon and Loopy Landscapes, I had a sick park in the free park place. It was literally, like Disney World, it was that organized and big.

Unfortuanately, I drowned everyone and made an army of stone dinosaurs and preteneded like they took it over.

The End.

Bahamut-X · 07-21-2007, 12:17 AM

I LOVE THIS GAME

Started playing this again recently, owned the **** out of infernal views (rollercoaster tycoon 2).

Some of my custom made babies:

Lava flow. Was trying to go for a mountain / canyon type ride with waterfalls and crap. Tons of fun making it.

Haunted halls. I didn't like the other castle rides, so I modified the style and made my own.

Bloodrush and Hyper Pressure. Best rollercoasters I've ever made.

Post some of your guys's coasters and other rides.
