Building a Vintage Amusement Park in Planet Coaster 2! | Lake Liberty | Planet Coaster 2 ep 1

[@JoeAndJoan7682]

This is gonna be awesome! My daughter and I are going to be building our own park as well. We loved your zoo stuff but she is a coaster FREAK! So pumped to use your work as inspiration. Thank you! Can't wait for next week

[@ZSHplays]

Ooh awesome! Have fun building with her!

Wow, you’re an amazing mom!

Omg i cant believe youve never played planet coaster before. It looks absolutely breathtaking what you build this episode. I cannot wait until the next episode!

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@sleepytomato4931]

ngl that was a huge pp pool

[@ZSHplays]

I realised this in the edit. I tried to edit around it but struggled 😆 You will be glad to know the finished lake is not that shape

[@pandaworld8166]

lmao, the minute he did the next circle all I could think was "penis pool"

[@TealDwellings]

LMAO That's all I saw hahahahaha 😂😂😂😂

[@michaelw6222]

Really looking forward to seeing your creativity put to use in PC2. I think it's a benefit that you haven't played PC1 and aren't bringing in a lot of baggage and extremely picky expectations. It's a game and I appreciate that you are just jumping right in and having some fun!

[@ZSHplays]

Awesome, thanks!

[@liam214_]

You taking inspiration from Belmont Park is so cool to me, as that’s where I spent a lot of my time growing up! Excited to see where this series is going.

[@ZSHplays]

Aw nice!

[@yellowkitten33]

Saw the thumbnail for the video and immediately was reminded of my hometown park, Lake Compounce! I love that you're drawing inspo off it, I can't wait to see the rest of the park!

[@ZSHplays]

That’s awesome! Thank you

[@bee.2392]

My jaw dropped hearing Lake Compounce lol, I used to go at *least* once a summer when I was young so it’s exciting knowing that you’re taking inspiration from it! I know you’ll do it justice :)

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! More inspo from Lake Compounce out now 😁

[@MellonBallZ0]

We’re in the same boat! I adore planet zoo, but never played planet coaster. Looking forward to trying it myself! This park you’re building is already just delightful. I love the way you’re disguising the pool as a lake! So clever

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@thefoxtrotter250]

It's great to see you trying out some new games on the channel, I hope you're enjoying Planet Coaster 2! ❤

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! I am! Although it's a steep learning curve!

[@henrygildehaus]

As a Belmont local, you nailed the build and look, although I would bank the first drop a lot more and add rougher banking overall to make it ride like the real, uncomfortable thing

[@ZSHplays]

I've added banking on all the curves since then, I couldn't find the option at first 😆

[@mrweaselszoos]

That path tool blew my mind 🤯 Amazing work as always! Looking forward to seeing how this park turns out!

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks Weasel! Yup it's been a lot of fun playing with it!

[@dariared]

I really appreciate your creativity, attention to detail and thoroughness! Looking forward to seeing more of this series 🤩

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! Next episode will be out on Saturday!

[@Boney0ne]

That coaster is absolutely gorgeous! I watched planet coaster videos for years, and have a chunk of hours in it, and I've never made anything remotely like this. You've done an amazing job. And that lake looks great!!

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@CDExotics]

I'm super excited for this series, I love your planet zoo videos. Your builds are stunning and I like how you explain what your doing and they aren't crazy fast speed builds. Some planet coaster 2 or even more planet zoo tutorials from you would be amazing!

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! I have a Planet Coaster 2 tutorial out next week 😁

[@user-TN65K0]

Am I ever going to play planet coaster 2? No, but will I watch it because it’s a ZSH vid? Yes

[@ZSHplays]

I love you.

[@BuildingMan98]

You should really give it a try!

[@MrOtter1234]

Wow, for your first time playing planet coaster, this is very good.

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@BumbleBee-uq4jr]

woo! i don’t know much about planet coaster so i’m extra excited to learn along with you in this series ❤

[@ZSHplays]

Enjoy!

[@Shashoo]

omg belmont park. that’s like a childhood place for me, love how you took inspiration from it.

[@Shashoo]

check out balboa park too, it doesn’t have any rides or anything but it is soooo beautiful

[@ZSHplays]

Glad you enjoyed it! Balboa Park is beautiful, I've long wanted to build the Palm House there but wow, that's an undertaking 😆

[@alexubel]

Interested in watching you build in Planet Coaster 2. Have really enjoyed watching you Planet Zoo videos for a while now. They have given me a lot of inspiration, as well as building tips for my own zoos.

[@ZSHplays]

Cool, thanks!

[@heyyheyytay]

i love your builds. so inspiring. cant wait to see what you create in Planco!

Your attention to detail is amazing xD My parks are always just plopped down premade coasters with paths xDD

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@rohaninamdar6060]

The belmont park pull is crazy! I've never known anyone that is aware of it outside of San Diego!!

[@ZSHplays]

I was researching classic US amusement parks and it came up. It also shares a name with my zoo so I noticed it immediately 😆

[@seanmurtagh7476]

Just wow! Amazing work. I'm subscribed to this because I am excitedly overwhelmed by the tools in PC2

[@ZSHplays]

Awesome! New episode out in 1 hour 😁

[@onevision-cq5bv]

Really fantastic build, it was fun to watch and I learnt a lot about the customisation. Looking forward to release :)

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@Jojo.F87]

Ooo so excited! I feel that Planet Coaster is a bit out of my league in terms of building and creating, but I SO look forward to watching what you create.

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm enjoying it so don't underrate yourself!

[@mineraljunction]

nice work! seems like you're gonna transition into PC very nicely from zoo. that lake is coming out great

Ooh thanks! Means a lot from an esteemed coaster player!

First Thing what i will add 2 for my pools, let them look like natural lakes, thank u for this simple clever idea.

[@ZSHplays]

You're welcome!

[@YannBK1608]

This looks amazing man! Great concept! It’s nice to see a totally other take on the early access, I’ve been very coaster oriented myself so far 🤣 can’t wait to see more! 👀

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! I thought I'd start with what I know and work my way up to bigger coasters 😁

[@YannBK1608]

@ it’s very nice to see you go out of your comfort zone a little while still having that classic ZHSplays feel 🔥

[@samrheins4213]

Awesome park! I cannot wait to see what else you do in Planet Coaster 2!

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks Sam!

[@PSVisionGaming]

It's great that you can play the game early and you have a solid start on the very first park ever in a Planet Coaster game. I think I’ll develop a love-hate relationship with this early stage of the game, with features that were in the previous game but are now missing.

[@ZSHplays]

Hah, so you're gonna play it then?

[@PSVisionGaming]

​@@ZSHplays Oh yes, I'm definitely going to play this game! I already have some ideas of what I'm going to do. 😀

You should build a coaster based off the giant dipper in Santa Cruz. I live right by it it’s super cool and has a lot of history

[@ZSHplays]

Cool thanks I'll check it out!

This convinced me to preorder. Oh my, this looks incredible.

Love Planet coaster havent really built too many customs coasters but the old game Thrillville had ELITE coaster building tbh.

[@sparrow838_]

I'm not particularly interested in Planet Coaster 2 but, if I see a ZSH video, you know I just have to watch! LOLed at the "ending to a successful test" @5:01

You're a treasure Sparrow!

[@LeviHartz]

I am very excited for planet zoo 2 because if it’s anything like this I think it’ll be one of the best Zoo games in a long time!

Oh man some of the new features would be incredible in a zoo 2!

[@imjustlikeyou]

excited to see what you can do :)

[@ZSHplays]

Excellent!

[@veeandness]

Aw man, why did you edit the POV of the coaster, you GOTTA leave that unedited. That's my favourite bit! Riding the ride makes me feel like I'm part of it!

[@ZSHplays]

So there may have been bits where it was just a teensy bit slower than I would like (ie WAY slower). When I have learned how to build coasters properly and perfected it I will give a full POV!

[@veeandness]

@@ZSHplays I appreciate that, and your prompt response. That means a lot to us! thank you! Looking forward to episode 2! Hoping we get a cheeky log flume in soon, guilty pleasure!

Hah, I noticed in the edit, don't worry, the finished lake is less... suggestive

[@Aramar5]

Nice start! I preordered te game this morning 🥳

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks! Enjoy!

[@claudefrancis26]

I feel like ZSHplays could advertise anything to me and I'd fall for it. Like you I haven't played the first one and a massive fan of Planet Zoo, but this looks pretty great. I didn't really have an interest in the first one and I don't really think this one is for me either, but I definitely thought about it while watching this, I just have to keep reminding myself that I don't own anything that would run this game 😅

[@ZSHplays]

Haha, glad you enjoy them

[@Denuhm]

This is amazing I love it

[@ZSHplays]

Thanks!

[@JessDezan]

Im so excited 🎉

[@Patrick73]

No custom music and custom billboard option is going to be a huge gamebreaker for a lot of people, sure hope this will be enabled at launch

[@ZSHplays]

I don't know why it's not there. For me, PC users expect it, and console users don't expect it, so just put it in the PC version and leave it out of the console version.

[@Patrick73]

​@@ZSHplaysi agree, hope youwill besharing your coaster and awesome park, so nice to see how you turn it into a lake.

[@theBlodynn]

I am so so using this as inspiration

[@ZSHplays]

Awesome!

[@ZakPerryMusic]

I live less than 10 minutes from Lake Compounce! Classic park with some stories

[@ZSHplays]

Cool, I'm adding a ride from there in the next episode!

[@Amm17ar]

Something that might be helpful would be inserting images of the coasters you're inspired by. I think it would be nice to have a frame of reference for what you're hoping to build for the audience and those who arent familiar with the park!

[@ZSHplays]

Could be but, I worry about copyright

[@Jayrbrts]

THIS HAS MADE MY final desicion to purchase the game so easy Will definitely buy it bow

[@ZSHplays]

Excellent! I'll ask Frontier for commission 😉

Slightly yes, but I'll see how it looks once I've finished the lake

[@ZSHplays]

Aha cool, thanks

[@howardwhitehead3853]

most rollercoaters have a small incline with normal track, then the chain lift is fully straight. I'm a rollercoaster enthusiast by the way.

[@ZSHplays]

You are the kind of person I need to hear from! How does the car get up the beginning of the incline? From the momentum of the drive track?

[@howardwhitehead3853]

also the drop should be banked (tilted) inwards, to reduce uncomfortable lateral force.

[@howardwhitehead3853]

also rollercoasters with a square track (B&Ms) should have the chain lift start flat, then bank upwards.

[@ZSHplays]

See I knew that but I couldn't work out how to do it! I will learn today, thanks for your help!

[@howardwhitehead3853]

@@ZSHplays Normally the incline is small enough and the tires are fast enough that it doesnt need mmuch speed. Just use one of the smaller pieces (5m or 6m), and point it between 30 degrees and 45 degrees.

[@jrh3987]

Are you going to put this as a blueprint on Planet Coaster 2? The Belmont Park coaster?

[@ZSHplays]

Once I've sorted out a better station and queue line I will do

[@AvastPirateGirl]

If it’s Belmont Park in San Diego it’s very bumpy and kinda rough I used to live in San Diego,CA and have rode it many times

[@ZSHplays]

I imagine 1920s coasters were pretty bumpy!

[@johngaddis1801]

Are you playing on console? If so, any sense as to the Oswald Build Limits? I'm curious how much (or little) can be built on the PS5.

Nah I'm on PC, I don't have any further info on the limits at this time

Nooooo! Why did they not add a Beach / Ocean map! I am so bummed about that. It was the one deciding factor if I was getting this game on day 1. Seems like a huge missed opportunity!

There is a thailand style beach map in career mode you can use in sandbox. Very small buildable area though

I mean, I literally show you in the video 😅

[@EvanBear]

What's the point in franchise mode for planet coaster? In PZ the animal market is shared between players but it's not like that's the case here.

[@ZSHplays]

Your park is online and you can have other people build in it, there's also challenges every week
