Possible Time Twister Screenshots

Wait for more screenshots before we judge atari could be teasing us in the beginning than in a week or 2 bring in the good screenshots. But the odds of that is 20% the other 70% is for a scenery pack.

Where'd the other 10% go? And the periods and other punctuation?

May the Schwarz be with you.

ok...so like 10% of RCT gamers (the enthusiasts) don't buy it. The GP will still eat it up.

I am not who you think I am.

I'm officially boycotting all Atari products. I've concluded that Atari doesn't know their rear end from a hole in the ground. This is the final nail in the RCT coffin. :(

So I guess this means no RCT3 like everyone is hoping?

I'd just like banked curves on the Arrow line of coasters. Those Teacups look nice though.

Coasterfreak2:

I can relate with you one the eye incident. I was at a baseball tourney in Kansas City, and a few friends and I went to Red Lobster. I grabbed a tooth pick and we headed to K-Mart. A part of the toothpick broke off and found it's way into my eye. I had to miss going to Worlds of Fun :(

It wouldnt be hard at all for them to make minor changes to the engine. Look at Zoo Tycoon. There are user created add-ons that only work with the Marine Mania update. That means patches were made to the original program. No problem.

Heres what i think.... I think more scenery is kinda cool but 29.99 for WW for some scenery is a FORGET IT. If they would have gave up some new rides and stuff i might've got it. it dosnt look like this is much either so im going with sim city 4 rush hour maybe ;)

This might seem as a stupid question but keep in mind my brother hasn't shipped me my copy yet (until next week, I never found the game in any store, and when I did find it was 3x the price, and it isn't available on amazon japan) but screenshots 5&6 show an inverted coaster with banked curves and ups and downs upside down. Is that possible on the original RCT" because I do not remember being able to do it on RCT1?

What is so hard about making realistic scenery? I say we boycott. Who wants skeletons w swords and giant oafs as scenery for their parks? I know I don't. Where are the flats! Gimme a balloon race, or frisbee, or pendulum, something realistic.

Bob are you referring to the purple & black coaster in some of the screens? if so then that's just the laydown coaster(vekoma flying dutchman) which has been in the game since CF on RCT1.

1eyedjack: no offense there in your post but for some reason you got my username mispelled there.

On the box, it shows those skeleton fighters, and in those pics their are skeletons, so everything on the box may be in the game, hopefully a night time setting and an airship. Yer they may be a good addition but I want it to be realistic, HUSS RIDES! And added features like the boosters back on the steel twister and a proper butterfly loop for the B&M flyer.

No offense taken buddy. As you can see from the time stamp, it was after 12:30AM. 6AM comes quite early. Add to the fact that a cold bottle of Budweiser was keeping the wind pipes chilled and lubercated.... I think you can see my point.... :) I liked Batwing when I was out there last year. Something about flying over a field was more fun than looking at a street and a parkinglot whule riding F-Flight.

Are we going to have to go through this every time an expansion pack comes out, and you all don't feel as though it's meeting your requirements? There's a simple solution: don't buy the game.

I don't think that anyone will... At least no serious RCTer.

By looking at the picks, I guess now you can have areas in your parks themed after Hell. Perfect for that 8 and under crowd.....

------------------

Well, I personally enjoy some of the new theme elements and rides, even if it is just more scramblers. If that makes me not a "serious RCTer", so be it.

Remember my face, I'll dig your grave...

I wonder if there will be games for the guests to play. That's what came to my mind when I saw those red and blue stalls in screens 1&2. Lets wait and see...

There are a few simple reasons that Atari is making nothing but scenery packs.

1. Money. It's cheaper to spit out easy to make scenery than it is to go into production all over again and reform code to put in new attractions. And also production = spending money.

2. I know tons of people that actually use the giant jellybeans and tennis rackets and crap. Why does it bug me? Because I'm an enthusiast. I know that the majority that play that game will eat another scenery expansion up. Why is that? Because it has the word "expansion" on it. It makes you feel as if you're missing something or that your version is obsolete.
Time Twister will sell wether enthusiasts are crying or not. If it bugs you that much, you can head on over to Atari's website and email their development department. I did. And do you know what they replied with? "Development of the games we produce are judged by a majority of user opinion. So far we have seen more of an emphasis on scenery. Until we have reason to believe that the public wants otherwise, we will continue to produce what we feel the audience wants." So there you have it audience. You're not doing your part.
