Career Mode is SO WEIRD in Planet Coaster 2 - Parks and Restoration

This was a painful beginning. Keep going!

Darn right 😂

No kidding! I wish he would pay attention more, and not rush everything. This video was like mental whiplash. 😂

Hey, just let you know your park rating and your guest happiness will go up if you put in entertainers or mascots

The career story lines were in Planet Zoo and Planet Coaster Console too. There are a few other features covered in the second tutorial (like park expansions which was stopping you placing the monsoon chute at first) so could be worth a look. Always read the objectives in the top left carefully. Some of them are very picky. (You can pin the top objective with the toggle next to the X on the full list.) You can toggle collision on in the settings if you want a challenge placing stuff :p You can daisy chain your power and water distributors rather than connecting them all to the same point. Don't forget to do research as you progress through career, or your ride options will be very limited.

Good tips

Another good thing to know is that your generators and distributors are completely different. And it’s important to understand how they operate. Your generators obviously are what produce power for you to operate all your rides and storefront and everything that needs power. Your distributors are just to help distribute the power from the generators. You need staff pathways to the generators, but you don’t need them for the distributors. You can put the distributors anywhere you want or even hide them in scenery, but you can’t do that with the generators. So always make sure there’s a pathway is connected to the generators so the mechanics can fix them. ⚡️👍🏻 Also be aware that your generators are constantly going to shut down quite frequently, so make sure to hire more than enough mechanics. Or else you’ll get constant notifications about your generators shutting down or rides not getting enough power. It helps if you put all the generators near each other in one spot so the mechanics can repair them all easily. Hope this helps! Thanks for the playthrough, just take your time next time! OK ✅

For your first park, I think it turn out very well in the end. But I will recommend increasing the chain lift on the pre-made coasters as the ride look like it craw and using block brakes on them to use 2 or more trains. Also I def recommend Planet Coaster 2 Waterpark Tutorial as it will give you a better understanding on how waterparks work in the game as I think it could be very fun for you to try to get a better understanding, especially since some of the campaign will have you built a waterpark.

I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the campaign mode much more than sandbox mode! However, I must admit that it was a bit disheartening to witness you rushing through everything so quickly. I fail to comprehend why people do this. I had hoped that some of the tutorial would provide valuable insight to you. Consequently, I took my time exploring every aspect of the game. Unfortunately, this rushed pace prevented me from fully savoring the experience watching this. If you can, next time, I kindly request that you take your time and don’t feel compelled to hurry through everything, especially when creating content that resonates with your audience. It’s far more enjoyable when you take your time. 👍🏻🙏🏻❤️ Additionally, I’d like to bring to your attention some issues I’ve encountered in the career mode that may be relevant to you. It’s incredibly challenging to manage your staff effectively, particularly with the hiring mechanics. They often seem confused about their roles and responsibilities. Furthermore, there’s a new scheduling staff feature in the game that requires you to manually schedule your entire staff. While this can be time-consuming, it’s not particularly effective in addressing the underlying issues. You’ll constantly receive notifications about insufficient power for certain rides and frequent breakdowns. Your janitors are also not performing their duties correctly, leading to notifications about unclean bathrooms and pathways. The shopkeepers and vendors are particularly problematic. You’ll frequently have to rehire staff who refuse to work or encounter issues when one of your employees goes on break, leaving you without a replacement. Therefore, it’s crucial to be mindful of these challenges when playing career mode. I’ve observed that these issues are not exclusive to my gameplay but are prevalent among players across the board. It seems to be a fundamental flaw in the game itself. Lastly, I want to emphasize that the career mode places a significant emphasis on building scenery rather than other aspects of the game. Therefore, it’s essential to be aware of this aspect and ensure that you allocate sufficient time and resources to it. 👍🏻

@@m.hreels9822 thanks for the tips, I’ll watch out for those issues! I’ve looked at some threads on Reddit and reviews on Steam, and it looks like the staff system is a little half baked. Hopefully it gets cleaned up soon! Until then, I hope my bank account can handle some extra staff! 😆

LOL RIP janitor

For your next one if you do the build custom for the facilities you get more options like a counter or vending machine

[@HopefulWielder99]

I kinda hated this scenario haha, the terrain limitations are so weird, there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to build in some spots. In my case, my park ended up looking incredibly ugly and cluttered because of these limitations, just felt like i had to cram everything

[@azungu1190]

For the first career mode scenario, it was pretty hard
