I could play RCT3 and RCT2 for hours if I had to. Best ******* game ever invented for PC, anyone who disagrees is a sexist misogynist rapist white cis scumbag
Is RCT3 good? I remember playing Zoo Tycoon 2 and despising it. I love RTC 1 and 2, but it seems like when a lot of the tycoons made the transfer to 3D instead of the original isometric style, they went to **** . Does it play the way the first two did at all?
It's exactly the same as 2, only with a major 3D graphics overhaul (even 10 years later it still looks great), the ability to ride your rides in first-person, added fireworks, water shows and laser shows, a sandbox mode (can't remember if 2 had one or not), and you can rotate the map X, Y and Z "smoothly" so it doesn't have to be isometric all the time.
If you like RCT2 then you'll probably like RCT3 as well. I don't think there's any reason to dislike it, they didn't drop any functionality, only added
Those two games have similar features, but in the backend, almost everything was different.
RCT1 & 2 were written in ******* assembly language by one dude, which is pretty ridiculous for a game. It was fairly pixel-y and you were stuck in isometric view.
RCT3 was built to be a bit friendlier looking, and it used full 3D rendering. I wouldn't call the graphics great now, but it's a 2004 game, so you get what you get.
I like both for different reasons, but you should try RCT 2 before 3 (RCT 2 is more like a standalone expansion pak of 1; same engine and look but more **** to play with)
Wait... What Rollercoaster Tycoon mission tells you to get a better rating than the park next door? I don't remember that ever being possible. RCTcaptain?
