Planet Coaster 2 Water Park POVs: Riverside Splash Park Slide Showcase!

[@fab199105]

I really hope they fix the graphics/physics of the slides, to resemble more realism. The two person raft slide would never turn around like that in person. I know it's a bit nitpicky maybe, but come on... it's the biggest selling point of the game. I hope they get it right... i really am looking forward to getting to play the game

[@BeyondDrewTV]

I'm with ya. They rotate wayyyy too much as of now and don't replicate how real tube slides work. Let's hope there's a post launch patch 👍

[@christophegueulette4174]

Same, the physics are disappointing! I want to see people fly!

[@sabki-]

Personally to me what you said is not nitpicking at all. Its the simple truth. The two seater would not just spin like that. The only one that should spin like that is the family raft that fits multiple people and maybe sometimes the single one

[@EmeraldBayMovies]

It's because it's literally just the spinning coaster with an invisible track and cars. All the slides are like this. It's really, really lazy dev work.

[@robkrasinski6217]

I never thought they would make the slides like a fixed track coaster. RCT3 had better slide physics despite being a lot older than this with worse graphics. But, I like Planet Coaster 2's graphics and that was a sorely missing element in PC1, working water slides and pools. If you have a older computer though you are sol unless you spend money for a new one that meets or exceeds the requirements, which are higher than PC1. And you must have Windows 10 or up.

[@goldengames5678]

I really dislike the single and double raft slides. The rider faces the same direction the whole time and not the direction the slide is going. That doesn’t happen in real life.

[@MrPr3stige]

It does on single ones, the doubles are a bit unrealistic tho

[@ytpchannel9467]

also it will be good if we had a slide with duble and single both together like at Sam park or Orlando

[@alannehme]

There will be updates w stuff fixed, added etc lets just make sure we comment the changes we wanna see under the steam page or sending emails I don’t think they’ll see every KZbin video about pc

[@001Neal100]

Back in the old days of RCT3:Soaked, you could make the test dummys fly out the sides of the water rides if you turned corner too fast or deliberately created a jump! As long as the dummy ended up in a pool, the guests would use it! These slides look like the guests are on rails.

[@TheCompletelyAverageGamer]

We’re all talking about slide physics, so I’ll chime in: Not only are the physics pretty bad, as many of y’all have pointed out, but why is there such deep water running through the slides?? I’ve never seen that much water flowing through a slide, it looks ridiculous. It’s even worse when you see the flat-bottoms of the slide (which are already horrifically unrealistic), but it further compounds the fears I have about Frontier rushing the game. Also, on tube slides, I’m really hoping the tubes get fixed so that the passengers actually are able to remain seated while entering the pool for the slide exit. It would be fun to see some guests tip over, some hop out, and most stay in the rafts. It looks so ridiculous when you see the tubes/rafts just disappear out of nowhere. Frontier, I have soooo much faith in you, but I really don’t think I’ll be purchasing until these kinds of things get corrected, along with all the other weird choices they have made with excluding coaster types and the omission of different stations.

[@goysplayground]

Wow, looks fantastic. I have more faith in the pov's of slides now! Just the special elements that seem to have some weird animations. Cant wait for episode 2!

[@Dillthrills13]

I hope they fix the tube slide POV

[@TheEmbrs]

The slides are so smooth! Nice job!

[@MrPr3stige]

The body slide povs look so much smoother than any of the premade slides😂

[@robkrasinski6217]

This looks so good, it reminds me of RCT3 Soaked! but better. I like the waterslides and swimming pools.

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Soaked! was a fantastic expansion, glad you're getting that vibe!

[@missym877]

Love the POVs!!! This looks like such a fun game can’t wait to buy!

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Hope you enjoy building your own!

[@samuelb66]

I'm really upset with how bad the waterslide physics are and it's making me hold off on buying the game until they deliver a better product. Funnel slides are my favorite, especially an enclosed one like you have. That slide in PC2 lasts about 10 seconds. Irl from my past experiences I've been in ones that can last anywhere from 20-30 seconds just in the funnel alone! it really looks like frontier went all out on the graphics and building side of the game and forgot about the people who like to appreciate their and others work

[@BeyondDrewTV]

I agree the waterslide physics need some work. Hopefully we'll see a patch soon that makes the rides more realistic!

[@scaryhobbit211]

Body Slides actually look pretty good. The tube slides though look baaaaaad. Frontier needs to do a full overhaul of those.

[@InsaneCoasterPOVS]

Beautiful work!

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Thank you!

[@BelgianWaffle]

An option to lock the spin on the inner tube slides so they always face forward would be nice. The slides look pretty nice otherwise.

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Yeah the spin is a bit excessive right now. Hopefully a patch will address it!

[@Whoisderon]

The slide physics are no where near the same as roller coaster tycoon. They can’t even fall off of the slide if the turn is too sharp.

[@CJ_Jockey]

Been waiting for these!

[@Blue-Bandit]

i really hope he posts this to the workshop when hes done

[@BeyondDrewTV]

It will be :)

[@BlockyGamez]

It looks really good!

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Thank you!

[@CartoonDinosaur.]

1:49 I feel like this slide's mechanics aren't right, it came out to quickly and almost made a beeline for the exit. In real life they sort of stay in there longer and slows down a lot. I don't know how they'd fix it though

[@eylon951]

Try to change the friction slider

[@CartoonDinosaur.]

@@eylon951 no I mean I don't know how Frontier would fix it

[@Mavgaming.]

lets goo another one!!

[@CobraDom-67kore]

Heres my proposal to fix the physics. It seems they had an idea for executing it, but either ran into crazy bugs or dident have enough time to fully implement it. From what i see, they tried to implement dynamic spinning animation into a path based animation system. The only thing missing is the proper slowing and speeding and swaying onto the sides. Becuase they already got the swaying side to side and smooth camera down in rct3, this probably means they had to come up with a system that works with the segment based editor. It looks like they copied the velocity based physics of coasters and put it on the waterslides, however lateral forces werent taken into account. The single and double tube slides as examples of this. The solution I see is to keep the same physics with the flat bottom slides for the big banana thing and a type of track peice that is flat bottomed, this alowes creaters to choose when they want the spinning. Then, create the concave type of track, a little smaller in radius, which uses path folowing and the same system they used on the gold rush swinging train and bobsled coaster. Then final tweaks to the physycs to keep them from going so fast, and badabing badboom. A decent waterslide. Im no game dev, so somebody please fact check me on this and see any potential problems with this fix. I know its not easy to switch between types of physics without some snapping or camera glitching, but hope are that with an improved system and lots of pestering frontier will aknowledge this.

[@vanapotamus6348]

every slide you have made looks much smoother then any of the blueprint slides

[@adrenaline_thrillz7175]

Did they get rid of the drop slides like they showed in the promos? I can’t find it anywhere

[@vanapotamus6348]

Make a trapdoor slide complex

[@realcoasterfan]

Now, I would be excited as anyone for PlanCo2 to release if I could be. See, my console doesn’t support it and my laptop is too slow to run it, so I’m gutted. But, this series is great! Keep it up! I would also like to see a vertical start on one of your slides!

[@Spealer]

Bitrate hs seen better days lol

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Oof obs reset to default settings and I didn't notice before upload 😅

[@christopherfinch-mccollum1753]

Looks great! Quick game question: is it possible to attach trash cans or benches to the blank animatronics?

[@BeyondDrewTV]

You can! But guests will no longer use them once attached

[@christopherfinch-mccollum1753]

​@@BeyondDrewTVThank you!! Not a problem. Do they work to block the AI still? I'm too impatient to wait 3 days to find out 😂

[@jamesreed7133]

why is the video so blurry

[@ryanslizzard7778]

even the lighting inside the slides looks worse than 2004 RCT3. the only thing that's better about the slides from RCT3 is the way they look from outside, and that's definitely not enough for me.

[@obvious2886]

I feel like the kinetic energy of the slides side to side motion is just not there

[@mikon524]

The physics on some of these waterslides dont exist

[@creepydude6826]

Why am I getting tube rides?

[@pilacheer]

I hope they can just cross their arms for body slides

[@maximewestbrook9967]

As a dev who read all the comments here, I am sad to say that it is highly unlikely they patch this physics problem with waterslides. Patch updates following a game release can occur for slight changes, or new features. Here we are talking about changing the way the slides work, which implies re-coding the whole stuff again… Same thing for the short slide pieces we have for the final release (I thought I saw a post from planco where we could see long slide pieces, but When seeing everybody’s early gameplays, I can think of 2 things : Either none of these gameplays are being played with the final version of the Game (highly unlikely but it is my last hope), or the final version still hasnt been displayed yet and will be available for everyone in a couple days

[@BeyondDrewTV]

I appreciate your insight into many people's concerns. It seems an odd, and maybe rushed choice to implement such a huge part of the game in such a lackluster way. Thanks again for your comment

[@ryanslizzard7778]

I'm getting annoyed by this "changing the whole code" take. They made it work better in 2004. Make it work, it's 2024. The water of the pools and the way it reacts/interacts with peeps is hella realistic, but you cant code some fucking correct inertia? Puhlease.

[@maximewestbrook9967]

@@ryanslizzard7778 not saying it isnt doable, just that thinking it one way, and then refactor the whole logic will be complicated from their perspective. Here we clearly see that slides are basically roller coasters, where peeps act as the train itself. Because the same logic was used for these slides, this is the reason im saying it is unlikely we see a patch regarding this issue. But yet again, I do hope that I am wrong, and if it were up to me, I’d fix this for sure…

[@briankale5977]

glad that comment aged poorly, quickly. already being fixed, the body slide should have already shown you it was implemented partly.

[@MisterPlucky]

Idk if it’s just me but I feel like people and the test models go down the slides a bit too fast. I know in real life that some people like to push themselves hard so they go down the slide fast on purpose but I feel like some water slides don’t go too fast either way. Again, it’s probably just me but hopefully someone gets what I’m saying

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Yep I understand what you're saying. It's almost like they're on a track instead of moving naturally. Frontier has announced they are looking into fixing this though which is great news!

[@FunFacts73582]

SIX FLAGS ROCKFORD?????

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Yes!

[@FunFacts73582]

Make the two huge slides

[@northlandwiffle]

The physics and camera for waterslides in this game are horrible

[@northlandwiffle]

It’s worse than RCT3

[@BeyondDrewTV]

Some work needs to be done, that's for sure

[@rehanpoonawalla7406]

Yikes they still have yet to fix the funnel slide physics. Genuinely disappointed since we already had some physics for the tubes all the way back in rct3

[@JoshB333]

Omg they look so bad wtf

[@EmeraldBayMovies]

I'm going to be skipping on the waterparks entirely until they fix the physics and weird shaping. This is just pathetic work from Frontier.
