    NE is proud to present Greater America a more "realistic" park from Beejer. While not the most stunning park ever released, it is a fun little park to explore, and there's still that sense of enthusiasm that Beejer brings to all of his works. It's definitely not the NE style, but it's still worth checking out.

    I just checked out the park. The entrance and surrounding architecture are absolutely amazing and without a doubt, the highlight of the park. The woodie and wooden mine train are two of the best coasters I've ever seen from you. The go kart track has a nice layout, but unfortunately with no peeps, nobody can ride it. Some of the other coasters in the park are more reminiscient of your old fantastic style. The park as a whole seems torn between the New Element realistic style, and your fantasy style. Personally, I prefer the latter, but it seems I'm in a minority. I think that the park as a whole shows progress, but towards a sort of style that doesn't allow for the best use of your talent.

    Awesome park. That Desert Bloom area is awesome, I love how you did the landscaping and foliage there. The entrance was stunning as well, and your bridgea were amazing as always. Its always refreshing seeing your work....thanks for sharing this with us, I think it definitely is deserving of a RU spot!

    Does anyone else get a missing data error?

    Could anyone tell me, if they know, what it's called?

    Beejer, big congrats on getting runner-up!

    Due to some personal priorities in RL I have not yet been able to view your park (as well as many others last weeks), but I have seen all your other parks from the first one till the one before this one, and I always have been deeply impressed about the very special creativity, skill, and more than obvious building-fun with which you executed/showed all of your parks; that shows and I love it; am sure this one is wonderful to explore also.

    Please go on and -while I'll be seeing this one in the meantime - am looking forward already to your next one/spotlight :glare:

    ^I am pretty sure this qualifies him for the PT finals

    I am surprised Beejer has not been considered a strong candidate for a parkmaker spot by now. I mean this is like his 3rd or 4th runner-up so he is really showing consistency.

    A milling area is home to Iron Ore and Steel Mill, an intertwining (but not dueling) pair of roller coasters (the first a dive machine; the second a floorless) that wrap around a gang of silos. It's similar to the general feel of EuroSAT and EuroMIR, at Europa Park--two other coasters that interact with each other and use the tracks of the other coaster sort of as "theming."

    Just for the record, EuroMir and EuroSat do not interact at all. EuroMir is similar to Steel Mill in that it goes around some cylindrical silo structures, but EuroSat is more like the coaster inside of the pyramid thing.

    Anyways, the park was nice. I still don't care for the style, but it's different. Runner Up seems about right. I liked the bridges and some of the landscaping was pleasant, but it's still a bit messy, and I can't really get into it, even with the attempt at realism. In fact, I'd probably say to just stick with the more fantasy stuff, because while this had some better form and such, I didn't find it quite as interesting as some of your more "out there" fantasy work.

    In short, I guess I agree with Ge-Ride. I personally prefer the more realistic parks, but I think you should stick to what you do best.

    Great work Beejer, that entrance is awesome and so are all the idea little things all over the park and the almost cBass like concepts to everything.

    Good luck in the PT3 if you enter, your able to now :)

    Also a HUGE thx to Cork for handling this as I work and prepare for my trip :mantis:

    Wonderful work, you could've hired all the handymen etc. I thought it might have been fun to actually play with this park.

    I enjoyed the glance I took at the park. You obviously have loads and loads of fun building this stuff, it was a very similar style architecturally throughout the park, but I really, really enjoyed the wooden coaster around the mine and all the bridges, as I expected, were fantastic. Congrats on the runner up, will try and post more thoughts on the park if I get time to take another look.
