Is that a 2 storey teacups ride?

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

^it certainly does look it, but not quite. If in fact it is, Atari's attention to detail has slipped dramatically. That looks like a double-decker carousel, but with teacups. There wouldn't be a counter-rotation inside the ride-base.

What an exciting announcement - Suddenly - everyone's interest is piqued once again...

I'll just wait and see what Joz can do with it.

[zacsta_1997]

About time. I have a feeling it won't be as good as the others but it looks like something to give a look at.

If this is pay-to-win I propose we all heard over to Atari and kill everyone.

Ah who am I kidding, we'll all just get uncle torrence to buy it for us.

This one is being developed by Pipeline Software, not Frontier developments like previous titles. Atari are still the publishers.

No micro transactions in this one like there are in RCT4 Mobile.

Hope it'll be as good as RCT3 and a must they need to do is add service stations, with track switch tracks to all the roller coasters to store other trains during of peak seasons. Just gives the hole game a much more real life affect.

The 11 year wait is finally over ???

[Reanimated35]

That's some strong-ass track right there.

I hope they keep custom rides.

Actually it's co-op - I remember doing a survey on that about a year after rct3 came out.

my gtx 780 Ti is ready. about damn time now make it over 9000 times better than rct 3!

My Intel HD Graphics 3000 is hopefully not going to have a heart-attack. It's RCT, how resource intensive could it be?

[bladex]

^well that is real gameplay in the video and it looks pretty intense to me so yeah don't think that card going to cut it

[Reanimated35]

I wouldn't rely on an Intel graphics based system, it's possible I guess, but worth the upgrade anyway. It will be pretty resource heavy unless they dumbed 3 down a LOT. In saying that, I upgraded everything a month or two ago so I'm set

[bladex]

it's going to be resource heavy. the trailer is a preview of ride cam mode so everything you see in the trailer you can actually build in a park.

[Reanimated35]

[bladex]

lets hope not LOL

[Jay Jay The Jet Plane]

You know what was crap? Roller Coaster Tycoon 3DS!

[westical]

it's going to be resource heavy. the trailer is a preview of ride cam mode so everything you see in the trailer you can actually build in a park.

Unless my eyes are failing me, isn't about 90% of the trailer video of a real ride POV?

[Reanimated35]

Only the last 2 or 3 seconds are in-game footage

Just need Gazza to drop in and tell us what ride it's from

[Zanstabar]

^Pretty sure it's Goliath at Magic Mountain but I could be wrong

[Jakev8]

Hahhahaha crack up^^^^^

[bladex]

aw what i thought it was in ride cam mode BAH. it better have water slides in it from the beginning

This is exciting news!

I really hope it does offer everything RCT3 did but more of it. I'm really looking forward to it.

When they say early 2015 how early do they mean and when they say for pc will it be on mac?

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

let me just use my powers of telepathy to ask them....

They're saying that it varies by Country. In Australia - our 2015 financial year has already started, so it's only days away from release! Many other countries don't start until January though - so they'll have to wait longer.

They also said if you enter the cheat code "subscribe" on your phone and send it to 199 55 00 32, Big Brother will let you inside the game for a day to ride all your own creations!

/sarcasm

We don't have any internal contacts at Atari. When they say 'early 2015' it's like Sea World saying 'Wild' opens 2013⁴₅ never. They won't set a date until they're assured it's ready for release.

As for PC MAC... here's a story. I worked for an organisation that developed a program. It was a popular program for many people, and users entered the multi-millions. Many Apple fanboys screamed for a MAC version, and for years, they said 'we are looking at doing one'.

A year or so ago, they finally brought out a MAC version after spending thousands (a helluva lot) developing and testing.. In it's first 12 months, barely 200,000 MAC users used the MAC version of the program.

Get a windows emulator. I'd rather they spent the extra on making the PC version rock-solid than diverting development funding on trying to make a square peg fit into a round hole.
