Cedar Fair and Planet Coaster.

[Saerenzea]

Hello again everyone! 

I know this isn't strictly related to Kings Island but I wanted to share it anyway. Cedar Fair just made a bit of a partnership with Planet Coaster and they made a model of Cedar Points upcoming Steel Vengeance roller coaster. Check it out on YouTube of you're interested. I am hoping they continue and maybe add some things from Kings Island in the future. I don't think they will just do this one thing and stop. Planet Coaster has a very Cedar Fair feel to it. 

I apologize if this is too off topic.

We do have a gaming thread.

We do have the random gaming thread, but the Cedar Fair/Frontier Developments partnership deserves its own thread.

I have yet to play Planet Coaster, but having in-game replicas of Cedar Fair coaster(s) is exciting news indeed!

Planet Coaster's style has always given me a Cedar Fair feeling. From its crispness and all the blue it uses. I'm glad they are partnering!

Does Planet Coaster have all the DRM hoops you have to jump through like Elite: Dangerous?

Anyone else reminded of SIX's team up with RCT2 by this?

I don't think so. I just bought it off steam and was done.

I actually just bought Planet Coaster the other evening. It's definitely got a refreshing artsy-ness to it. I'm still trying to get the hang of it, but it feels a lot more accessible to casual users than NoLimits.

I thought the partnership with Cedar Fair was very interesting... I wonder if this will become the new industry "thing" to do. I feel like Planet Coaster doesn't have enough of a following for this to become a regular occurrence--but then again, I wouldn't have thought it had enough of a following for this sort of partnership to ever happen.
