    Well, to start of this was a major improvement over 'blue devil'. This park featured some cool things, I liked the guitar and the top of the drop-tower.
    It kinda felt H2H inspired by the size and how you filled the map.

    I did feel like a lot of station buildings were rushed and that you guys didn't wanna really finish this anymore. The station of Guitarra EspaƱola and El Bosque Encantado were way to small. El O jo Loco and El toro didn't even have a station building. and El Toro was even a premade layout of the game, even though it was supported it pretty good. It felt like you just tried to fill the map but couldn't come up with your own layout.
    The queues of some attractions were really strong, Guitarra Espanola was (in my eyes) the big star of the park and the ferris wheel had a queue line at least twice as big. A lot of hacks were well done although it weren't the hardest hacks. For El canon, you (probably accidentally) removed the ride.

    I did like the sub sandwich restaurant, whereas it did look uninspired it also looked really cozy to eat there.

    The bike tour was a bit crazy to me, I did not really get what the ride really was because the inside was just a checkered floor.

    I also quite liked Duplo Grito and its building+queue, at least compared to the rest.

    Another letdown was that the scales on some buildings looked off. The hotel was REALLY small and didn't really add something imo.
    Other than that they were quite blocky and the details felt uninspired. The detailling was right sometimes but it feels like you added the details just for the sake of having details on the building and not so they would represent something.

    All in all a great improvement but I feel like you guys can improve even further.

    Okay, first of all, thank you. We know this is a great improvement.
    It was really fun to build this. BC had some great ideas (like the guitar) which he made pretty good IMO. El Cañon was a failed experiment by BC though. He wanted to make it invisible by changing it into Crooked House, but it didn't work, and we got a crooked house as attraction.We couldn't delete it because that caused an error trapper. I eventually made it as it had to be.

    Then, El Toro wasn't premade.BC made it. He showed some pics in the dump place, when it was another track type and train type.

    I did all the hacks I think.

    The hotel was meant to be a hospital, it was built by me. I also built the station of the bike rental and hacked it. I made the little souvenir shop and I supported all rides except for Duplo Grito.

    We will improve even further for sure, we have started other projects (with each other, with others, or solo). ATM I have like 4 projects, one is a solo NCSO park and the others CSO collabs.

    What's the purpose of a hospital in an amusement park?
  • MikaRCT2%s's Photo
    I thought it was a nice "experience" for the peeps, at least better than a small little building with a first aid stall in it.
  • Maverix%s's Photo
    The thing is though, you're only going to find a first aid stall/ tiny little building in an amusement park, not a full multi-story hospital.

    ^Well, that was a failed idea but we've got so much ideas that we didn't organized them well.
    I like this park, I think that the big star of the park, like chorkiel said, was "Guitarra EspaƱola". Mika was a good partner on this project and for a first contest, this park was not bad IMO. I did all the landscape, layouts, all the architecture except the souvenir shop and the Bike tour building, and I did also the supports of "Duplo Grito" witch was the first support work that I did.

    Me and Mika were wishing to get 30%, it was really close!

    Thanks for the feedback and more critical comments are welcome, please give a review for the park :)

    Ok ,i've checked your park.
    Definately needs work and atmosphere.
    Not a bad park btw. ,but you definately should put more time ,effort and 'love' in there.
    The foilage was boring and monotone, more variation in trees and bushes and the composition of those would have created more atmosphere, as well as more benches ,lights and fences. Also try to use the right deco for the style of architecture you've applied ,otherwise it doesn't look right.
    Generally it all felt quite rushed. Nice to see you can hack, but it doesn't make it perfect just by that.

    I don't want to put you both down ,but start working on above mentioned for a better result next time. I loved to see you two get an accolade in the future. So keep it up. :)

    thank you :)

    I'm sorry, but why not make your goal 100%? If you settle for less than first place then you'll end up last place.
  • Xtreme97%s's Photo
    Because their obvious goal is to improve. Yeah, they should ideally be aiming for 100% but that's probably impossible for anyone on this site. They're setting short-term targets which they can increase with each park/design, therefore not only improving themselves but having a record of how they have progressed as players. I doubt you're expecting to get 100% any time soon, are you?

    BC/Mika, I like the park but I can definately see improvement in the buildings and foliage. I liked some of the layouts but a few were kind of awkward. Also try to vary the supports on some of the coasters. Both of you have improved loads with this and I hope you can continue to build up your skills.
  • Arjan v l%s's Photo
    @ Shotguns? : I agree with Xtreme97 as well, you can set your goal for 100% ,but would that be fair to yourself? It must also be managable to achive that. My first 2 parks also wheren't an accolade ,My recent and first more serious park that's coming up gives me my first accolade. Improving is nice ,but setting the bar too high would kill the fun. The first 2 parks that i've build was more a learning proces and discovering the new items. And ofcourse some users like to improve fast and some in a more steady phase (like me).
  • Xeccah%s's Photo
    No, 100% of what you can achieve. spending loads of time, skill, and heart into anything and thus being rewarded for that, that is what makes it worth it.
  • Arjan v l%s's Photo
    Then you are really driven and motivated.
    That's a good thing, hold on to that. ;)

    Me and Mika were not working to get 30%, we just expected 30% in the vote process.
    We worked with fun but this didn't get any better because of time, there were some problems till the drop line (Mika crashed his RCT2 CD and I was on auditions to the theater school) so we didn't had so much time. For sure we will get better and better with time and this is just the start ;)

    Just a question,
    will the points of this park appear on Mika and BC (me) status (Hall of Fame)?
  • Liampie%s's Photo
    Eventually. Don't bother asking again, the points will be calculated and updated whenever an admin has time. Could be tomorrow, could be next week. Not ideal, but it's the current state of affairs.
  • Xeccah%s's Photo
    I really do not see why the impaitence in points. I dont really care about seeing a rank and 80 something points on failed submissions by my name. Why do you care so much?

    Shotguns :facepalm: some things can boost confidence and that is a major confindence boost probably for them I know it will be for me to.

    The point is not that I care or not, I was afraid that the admins forgot this, just that, but seems that they are busy.
