Why the double post CedarPointNut?
Why should they change an already killer game engine? If it's not broken why fix it? If they were to add that feature it would take chris so long to make the game. Some computers can't handle such good graphics. This would screw up the frame rate. It would be Sim Theme Park all over again.

While a guest viewpoint would be a lot of fun, I think it would get boring really fast. I mean, what novelty does buying a hot dog have, except that you've seen the peeps do it, and now you get to, too!. Well, I've got news for you... That'll be novel exactly once. And there's lots of new code that Mr. Sawyer would have to write to do this. For instance, how will the park be controlled while you're out with the peeps? Granted, you don't do any micro-managing (thank God) in this game, but it's a fact that an unnatended park will quickly go to pot. And there are the new graphics engines and whatnot that he'd have to do (I dont't understand all that, but I know it would be a lot), pluss, how will the peeps look when they're life-size, how will they actually walk side-by-side (does it seem to anyone else that peeps that pass each other sort of melt through one-another?), all the details on the buildings will have to be fully fleshed out... In short, this would be a major undertaking.
Now, I would be happy with the ability to ride my coaters. I even think it would make sense to get rid of the park, and just keep the lanscaping and scenery. But that still would take up a montrous amount of time that could be better spent on developing new stuff for the game we already have and love.
