As a result, they want to push the game early and bank on their nostalgia shares before they come crashing down. The release date of November 16th was announced only a few days ago, so it seems clear they know their competition has a superior product. To put it plainly: Atari is trying to cash in on nostalgia as soon as possible. However, if the word of Reddit user JimmyPLoveis anything to go by, then RCTW's updates haven't done anything substantial in terms of fixing the abundance of technical issues with the game. To be fair to Roller Coaster Tycoon World, the footage was taken during beta, and all three games have had multiple updates and fixes since then. Parkitect, on the other hand, has been positively received by fans as an updated version of Roller Coaster Tycoon and its sequel. This is in great part thanks to the fact that it is developed by the same people who made that game. The game lacks any of the formulaic features that players are familiar with, and it rarely does what you want.Īs a result of these upsets, Planet Coaster has since taken the title of Roller Coaster Tycoon 3's successor, as it provides many fixes for what the game did wrong. The games look pretty, and building what you want is fairly easy, as the UI is very straight forward. Meanwhile Roller Coaster Tycoon World has a poorly designed UI, poor animations, and plenty of bugs. Parkitect has been out since May 5th, 2016, while Planet Coaster is due for release on November 17th.Īs can clearly be seen in the video, both Parkitect and Planet Coaster are highly intuitive and well designed titles. In the above video, Nerd 3 shows off the three main competitors for the amusement park tycoon sim genre: Roller Coaster Tycoon World, Planet Coaster, and Parkitect. Video courtesy of OfficialNerdCubed's YouTube channel But this Wednesday, Atari is seeking to release its latest title, Roller Coaster Tycoon World - which many tycoon fans are calling an "unfinished, unpolished, hashed game".īut what makes this any more controversial than the typical unfinished game release? The game is coming out only a day before its competition. Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 saw a great divide in fans of the series thanks to long loading screens, a lack of character, and poorly designed UI. The series' glory days are long since gone.
