    After problems with Gearhost and problems with being ripped off, we're gonna finally try to get this site moving in the right direction again. Congratulations to x-sector for winning his second Spotlight with Universal's Outrage. Following up X's latest streak of Disney parks, including his spotlight winning "California DisneySea" and his super runner up, "Disney Extreme Orlando", he moves over to Universal Studios and creates an outstanding park that is definitely worthy of this title.

    A park like this could certainly use a better name.

    A very deserving spoltight park, very well done X-sector. Only thing I found lacking was the Black Moon Quarry, just didn't like the haunted fences (never have...probably never will) and I didn't think the purple fits there, besides that the park lived up to your reputation of great parks. Sadly, though, some of the stuff in there will make my upcoming parks look less original...

    *Rating Scale*

    Themeing (25%)
    Coasters (25%)
    Buildings/Architecture (20%)
    Landscaping (10%)
    Atmosphere/Overall Look/Naming (15%)
    Other Rides (5%)

    *Bonus- Creativity (10%)


    Themeing- 15/25- I am sorry to say that this rating was greatly reduced due to only 1/4 of the map--- yes, the dark section. This section contrasted horribly next to the other bright and "Universal-ish" sections in this park. It just totally didnt fit in. Not only that, but this area also reminded my of a Mala park WAY too much (By many peoples standards this would be a compliament, but most certainly not by mine). It just lacked the quality and innotaveness that was featured in the other sections..... of course, this little opinion of mine might just be due to my strong dislike of dark, un-realistic atmospheres. Either way, this hurt my judgement on the park. A lot. In addition to this, many spots lacked the necissary attention to detail that I like to see in a park.

    Coasters- 12/25- I wasnt totally impressed by the coasters here. Yes, just like you would expect me to say, I thought they were way too unrealistic, blah blah, the whole nine yards. But really, the designs in many of the rides lacked a lot, and just wernt very appealing at all. I think these could have been improved by a few themeing touch ups, but again, I probably only feel this way becasue of my dislike of unrealism.

    Buldings/Architecture- 15/20- This is one of your stronger categories for this park. It is rare that you see someone get so creative with such a repetitive thing as architecture. The buildings in the space age section (sorry for not using the proper names of sections, but I am too lazy to go back and see what they are) were quite inspiring, as well as many of your other large buildings/cienama's.

    Landscaping- 6/10- Good elevation, treeing, and working with the land were your strong points here, but the score was brought down a bit by the look of laziness in areas. Some of the landscaping could have been greatly improved with a little more work.

    Atmosphere- 8/15- This is a very mixed section indeed. Some of the atmosphere was wonderful, yet some was very off in proportion to the rest of the park. The feeling inside the park was fairly nice for the most part, yet naming was a bit of an issue. Most people will have trouble ajusting to a park named Universals "Outrage". The overall look was a bit below average, mostly due to the contrasting of the darker section, but fine and bearable all the same.

    Other Rides- 5/5- The other rides in this park were actually quite wonderful, and even inspiring in some cases. A great deal of creativity was used in their making, and there was a nice variety as well.

    *BONUS- 5 extra points added to the overall score for creativity*


    Overall rating- 66/100-(Yes, I do try to be a tough rater, so keep that in mind).



    I really would like to see some more realistic work from you in the future. CDS is amoung my most charished parks of all time for its wonderful realism and atmosphere, yet none of your other parks meet that. However, definetly dont let my personal preferences bring you down. Congrats on the latest spotlight, and good luck in the future.

    Hmmm. This park was nice in places, and pure... eck, in others.

    I loved the entrance section. GREAT stuff there. However, you make a right and are blinded by that horrible red path. It hurt really bad. The coaster colors somewhat clashed too, making my road to blindness that much shorter, lol.

    The "Mala Tribute" kinda ride thing was neat, especially the custom building.

    Posix's area was ok, but nothing really stood out for me as spectacular.

    Overall, 7/10 from me. Great park, but there were somethings that shouldn't have been done in order to diversify yourself from the normal trend of parkmaking. But, keep it up X!

    It's a love/hate park IMO, and I love it... well, most of it. The dark section was okay. ;)

    However, I definitely think it was deserving of Spotlight.

    Well done, X! Now, get some RCT 2 work done. :p;)

    *whimper* mala tribute... gave me a heart attack... :0
    I almost forgot it was supposed to be a tribute, and nearly flipped my lid o.O;

    I need to calm down...

    no, i need pills, sweet pills... and... ah, lithium, you are my only fwend... *dopes up*

    oh yeah, cool park, some sloppy hacks, but brilliant theming.

    Truly one of my favourite parks, but then again my taste is usually 'questionable'.

    X-Sector broke out from his old "sunnydale falls to vermonty" skin with DEO and Evolution, but this park is his crowning achievement.

    I can't believe the things in this park - things that haven't been seen before mixed with nostalgic things that everyone recognises.

    And I came up with 'Symbiotes' as a name ;) *basks in glory*

    X, i'm expecting more of the same, and more madness in the future! But I still can't believe you finished it before womb, you bastard :D

    Well Done!
    In fact, Extremely Well Done!

    Top 5 material.

    I thought the park was alright. It definitly wasn't my favorite spotlight, but it was pretty good. I liked "Ripcurl" a lot, and it was one of the most unique things I've ever seen in a park. "Symbiotes" was nice, but it was just too much like Mala's coaster for me, and I thought Mala's was a lot better. The ride inside that huge structure (the one by the whirlpool, forget the name) was one of the most incredible things ever, though. That structure was amazing, and that was probably my favorite part of the park (except for maybe Ripcurl).

    Overall, I'd maybe give it a 7.5/10.

    Everything bright was awesome. The woodie thingy ride was really good, the experience was even better. The dark section was good, but it really didnt fit in.

    Everything bright was awesome.

    Everything bright is awesome.

    Thanks For the comments keep them coming.

    Let me clear a few things up as well.

    Yes I knew the duellers would cause this problem of everyone saying something. I had a decsion with Mantis about it aswell. I e-mailed Mala to ask if I can keep them or if he could do some for me but he never replied so I was going to delete them but people kept telling me to keep them as they fitted so well.

    The Dark section well yes I agree with you all it was the weakest section but I don't do dark. :) I thought I would have ago at it as you never see a dark section from me and I got so bored of the section Posix was so nice to finish it of so cheers mate :).

    I agree with people saying some of the areas could be better but towards the end I was getting a bit bored with the park and also I started new projects so I just wanted to get it out of my way.

    Thanks everyone for the comments so far :)

    Bloody Hell, how on earth are people supposed to get 9+/10 *gawps*

    People are so hard to please these days :)

    Well, seeing as I didn't really enjoy the park, that's what I gave it. I just have a different style than the park. If the dark section was something different, it would have maybe been 8.5. I really didn't enjoy that section too much.

    A great park,one that ive been looking forward to for a while that definately deserves spotlight. But there are few things in there that I would have prefered to have seen first in other parks.Im sure you know what I mean.

    good job.

    EDIT:micool ive started a topic for exactly the things like that in beast area,go now.
  • Micool%s's Photo
    You people don't know ingenious art when you see it. :D I love it all! Well, except for those bare mountains. If I ever took up 1/4 of a map with bare mountains...ooh...um..okay then.

    *X-sector - how did you hack those dolphins into the water? Winhack? My beast won't do it! I tried for hours like a month ago, but I basically gave up on the idea.*

    I saw the park just before the dark area was done and it was amazing...

    Now i have seen it all....The dark area wasn't my favourite but the mine train was very good.

    I fucking loved ports of discovery and atlantis sea base...Very creative.
    Ripcurl was bloody creative and one of the best buildings i have ever seen in rct was The Experiences wooden temple...WOW...

    Overall this park is defintely in my top 5 or even 3 parks..

    excellent work X
  • thorpedo%s's Photo
    I can't open it cause of XP...but I will eventually. Does anyone know how to get my RCT to work on XP??? Sheesh. I've tried anything.

    Anyways, looks like a very creative and innovative park, and I hope to see it soon. I'll edit this post with my official response.

    Haha, pipe down RRP, wouldn't want to give the game away ;)

    Where is everyone? Comments on spotlights have gone down so much. It's a shame.

    Very good park I loved almost every section of it. I thought original park were a dieing breed but with this and a few upcoming gems it looks like I was wrong anyway back to the park. The Atlantis sea base was awesome I loved the whole atmosphere to this area of the park. The pod area was also very unique in a good way the temple in this area was very well made.

    The dark section I have mixed views on it kind of seemed out of place to the rest of the park but still it was well made and I like both coaster in this area.

    Overall probably one of the most creative parks ever and I would rank this park now in my top 5 even higher. Also some of the hack are great it really makes me which I spent the time to learn how to use winhack. Great park X Sector and fully deserved the spotlight.
