Roller Coaster Tycoon II headed for stores this fall

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

After the original spent years at the top of the charts, Roller Coaster Tycoon II will hit shelves this fall. New features include a tuned ride creation system for more control while building roller coasters and scenery, new shops and stores to help raise player’s profits in their parks, new park themes to help gamers attract new customers to their theme parks and a scenario editor with which gamers can create their own park challenges.

Read more from the press release from Infogrames.

I hope you are able to change the loop size to what ever you want. That will make it alot better.

Maybe the new game will have some new coaster concepts, too - ones that don't exist yet. Or maybe some of the newer flat rides. Or ..... a hundred other things.

I just hope Mr. Sawyer has been reading the "RCT2 Wishlist" threads! :)

I am so excited! This has made my month!

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

With all the new online technology lately, I would really love to see a multiplayer mode in which you compete against an online opponent to draw more people to your park or have a certain number of coasters with a certain rating etc.......Somehow it seems like the offseason has started all over again ;)

I can't wait but I lost my orginal copy so I will have to buy the golden ticket game and then buy rct II but then again Im not sure if rct II is an expansion pack or whole new game *** This post was edited by WILLDOG on 4/26/2002. ***

C'mon, a Mac version! I need to give those Mac test boxes some life and purpose. :) And besides, I could have my PC doing things while I play.

Yes indeed, HUGE news, been waiting FOREVER.

Now lets not forget one question... can we at least ride the rides? ;)

So this is not RCT Gold, right? This is RCT II
Frank, I would love to see multiplayer capabilities to. It would be so much fun to try and get more guests or just have a sandbox mode and build a group park!
Unfortunately I didnt see anything about more flat rides I would assume Sawyer has spent all his time trying to find new ways to keep us from using trainers and the drexler patch I guess we might get 1 or 2 new flats but nothing like what we need for a realistic park(swings kids rides looping ships old style free falls ect... )

Hurray, More hours of roller coaster bulding are on there way. To bad we have to wait till fall.

Great timing... it will become available just as the winter blues are starting to take effect!

Not sure which is better: The fact that RCT2 is coming out, or that this means the end of all those stupid rumors about RCT2 coming out.

Seriously, this truely puts my loserdom into perspective but:

This is the best coaster news I've read since SOB and MF were announced.

-----------------
If the shoe fits, find another one.

Great news!!!!!!! It's a shame that us English will probably have to wait a little longer though.

One thing i want to be added aswell as new coasters and rides (of course) is ATM machines. I hate when they lose money. You could put interest on and get mega amounts of money!! So many things to add so little space to do it!

I still kinda like the simplicity of it where you can make a well good coaster in a matter of minutes or maybe half an hour!

Lets just say the off season will be much better this year!!

The vampires back with more avengence! and rust!

OH MY GOD! BREAK OUT THE CHAMPAGNE!!!!!

THIS IS SPECTACULAR NEWS!

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

Will it have on ride videos for the coasters? *** This post was edited by Rockrc480 on 4/25/2002. ***
Hoooooray!

Says Joey whos leaving to go to CP in a few minutes for his season pass!

I went to Sandusky, but there was no Callahan factory

Awesome news I can't wait!

How can I concentrate on work, school, AND RCT2?
