Planet Coaster

Looks like I won't rush to buy this despite the offer considering I'm still running a 3570k! It's fine in everying I play with one rare exception - if I'm playing Assetto Corsa with a full grid of AI cars. Not sure this game is justification enough to upgrade when it seems to have pretty mixed reviews anyway!

So this is down to £7.49 in the steam winter sale. How well does it perform? I’ve got a core i5 4590, 16gb ddr3 and a gtx 970, and I run at 1080p.

Not wonderfully tbh. Forget a large park without big slowdowns. Enjoyable in the meantime though.

For only £7.50 It's totally worth it.

at £7.50 its worth every penny. Truly a game you can get lost in with your imagination!

Had this since launch and still love it. The possibilities are near on limitless on what you can create if you have the imagination and the creative drive.

As others have mentioned it can bring the FPS down if you have a huge park with thousands of guests.

Highly recommend it and Frontier deserve the money.

Looking into buying this to relive the rollercoaster tycoon days, will my laptop be up for the job?;

i7 7700HQ Quad
16Gb
Nvidia GTX 1060 6Gb
250gb PCIe SSD

I got this laptop as an upgrade so no idea how good it is but it’s tagged as a gaming laptop

A good i7 will be fine.

Yeh you’ll be fine with that laptop. I have very similar but with a 1070, works fine.

Just saw this YouTube video and thought I sahre it with you all. Don't have the game myself but got to say WOW for the person that build this ride. Talk about detailed and a very well done project.

That would be awesome in VR

That is incredible! :eek:

Can't believe Frontier hasn't sorted out VR support for Planet Coaster yet!!

suenstar · 9 Jan 2018 at 14:34

That's possibly one of the best Planet Coaster rides I've ever seen, I could never have the patience to put together something that good.

sgavan · 9 Jan 2018 at 14:50

I couldn't even imagine a coaster that good, I struggle to design a good toilet block

Glacius · 9 Jan 2018 at 14:52

That alien ride video.... cant imagine the time that went into that.
