Coupon, although this is clearly a step up from Hillsburg Park, I still can't say I like it much. The foliage/landscaping was poor, the (often ripped off) architecture was mostly poor and the rides didn't do much for me. The atmosphere was minimal. I did vote 55% (bronze) however, so it's not entirely 'poor' to me. The area surrounding the log flume was pretty good, the Western area is by far the best thing you've done yet. I also really like the park layout, although there's a little too much path in the front. What things did djbrcace to in this?

Congrats both. I hope to see more of you, but frankly, only if it's themed or has new ideas.

while this was a good park, but at the same time I feel like I've seen it before and in higher standards and better execution....

It didn't seem original and that's what bothers me with this realism trend, it all seems highly reproductive instead of inspired

I like this park. I think it has got some good layouts and a lot of nice details, for example the old coaster tracks in the overgrown grass. I think you are good at building realistic parks but you could be much better with somethin semi-realistic. The Western area was the best area in this park. I'm only missing some significant Six Flags styles. A batman area or a superman coaster would have been nice. But all in all it's a good silver park.

I thought the park and rides layouts were solid, the architecture was good, the foliage wasn't too bad and it definitely felt realistic. But also it lacked any form of creativity, originality and atmosphere. You clearly have the technical knwoledge, the will to improve and the 'courage' to finish big parks (that's why I voted silver), but your work could be so much better if you put more of your own ideas in it, maybe pull off a real theme, try to make it look beautiful, apart from just realistic. Don't get me wrong, I liked it and it's well done, but I feel you could do much more intresting stuff with this game.

overall this was a nifty little park and definitely a step up for both of you. pretty good work.

the main problem with the park was that it was awfully stale. the paths were a bit too wide and everything was really spread out, which made the park feel dead and less attractive. the theming was also a bit similair conceptually to parks like six flags carolina but overall it was generally OK although not pulled off to an amazing level. but if you keep at it, and make your parks more interesting and worth more than just a quick look-over (fill your park with little things!) then you could really be strong parkmakers.

I want to see what louis has to say about this though!

and my fingers are so cold I can't type this anymore

This was phenominal. Absolutely phenominal. I'm not a massive fan of Six Flags parks (as can be seen from my votes on Robbie's and CP6's) but this was outstanding and, to me, was different. It still felt like a chain park, but it was just so much more charming. It was so much more atmospheric than previous SF parks and less stale, plain and boring.

Your style is like gijssie's, clean, subtle with detail, quaint, charming. It's just one that appeals to me massively. I can't wait to see what you do in H2H.

Really? It doesn't get more plain than this.

It feels like the old days again. You and me, completely disagreeing.

It's meant to be plain, but in that instant it also very charming and has character, it doesn't take away from the overall picture that the park portrays, where as in SFSF and SFC, it's also meant to be plain, but lacks character and charm, it's just boring, which is a major 'flaw' of those parks in my eyes.

Yes it is like the old days, the two of us completely disagreeing, but not with the lack of respect we once had

In my experience it wasn't a lack of respect, just extreme frustration and internal conflict because I just couldn't believe how much we disagreed. I didn't know it was possible to disagree like that.

I quite liked this. I also loved how it seemed that you have improved quite a lot during the making of this. From the entrance to the woody the park became better and better. I nearly wished you had redone the entrance and some of the parts near it.

What things did djbrcace to in this?

Well, I can say my involvement in this changed so much--At first it was to be a 50/ 50 duo, but lack of planning, and motivation on my end cost me to do less, so primarily I did layouts (supports included) such as Python, 1776, Rattler, The dark ride, the placement of the drop tower, the sky screamer, and the log flume.

I'm just happy enough to help him out, although the one thing I wish we did was expand the map out more rather than cutting it short.

Coupon, I like this one a lot, and you know it. I'm just kind of puzzled by the placement of some of the advertising.. Some can only be seen from the rides. Don't think that's entirely realistic. :q

I love this park! The sky screamer and the orange coaster are really well done! And the wooden coaster to!

While the park was really good I did manage to find a couple flaws. Python (BM Invert) absolutely gets no riders. The ride was not tested to get the excitement raitings, ect. I tried fixing this by closing the ride then found out that the people could not leave the line and were stuck. I think Rattler's station could have been planned a bit better. Personally I would have rotated the entrance and exit so the people don't walk on air when entering and exiting the ride. There were a few other minor flaws but I still really much enjoyed the park. I haven't been able to check out all the little details but caught the 'under water pipeline' which runs under Goliath.

Really look forward to what you release in the future as your parks keep getting better.

Excellent park. I think it got exactly what it deserved. There where some 'plain' spots, but the little details made up for it in my opinion. My favourite part may have been Old Timers(!) and the Logjammer area.
