H2H5 / [H2H5] Round Robin | Round 2 | Match 2

Pretty much agree with zburns on this one. I voted for Peublo Canyon - mainly on the basis that the woodie was the only ride on either map which really impressed me.

ImaginIt was again, another 'safe' option - a fairly generic, nice park. The theming and archy is all very nice; as everyone has mentioned, the Japanese area is great. I didn't quite get the overall idea behind the park - neither the ImaginIt name or what you were trying to go for in terms of theme. I mean, there were basically 2 big areas - USA and Japan. Seemed kinda odd. Ride-wise, the park didn't do much for me. Shogun is the stand-out ride, and whilst it LOOKS cool, the layout again lacks any real 'goal' or purpose - it just meanders about for far too long. So yeh... it's a nice park, but came across as generic and playing it safe, with no 'wow'-factor rides.

Peublo Canyon - again, a concept I didn't get. I didn't really understand the park's setting - why is it located there? - I didn't get why there's a broken dam - I didn't get the Canyon Explorer ride. I'd have liked some sort of context for the park. That aside, I think this had JUST more to offer than ImaginIt. I didn't really get the canyon setting, but quite liked it, and found it unique. I appreciate doing something different rather than sticking to the norm. It's certainly well-constructed, with convincing elevation changes. Ride-wise, nothing stood out much - except for the woodie, which is fantastic. Ok, you really shouldn't have labelled it a GCII coaster, but nonetheless, it's a really really great ride. Perfectly paced, large drops, great, surprising and unique layout. Really hard to pull that off that well. Moreover, I could just imagine riding this, and thinking how much fun the ride would be. So yeh, a really great ride - and the only one with any 'wow-factor' on these two maps. And that's why I voted for Peublo.

Note for teams - I'd have appreciated it if you'd included some little notepad file or read-me with the download. Just a couple of sentences, explaining the concept of the park. I literally download the park and open the file; so I don't really get a lot of the concepts going on, unless you include some little readme in the download. I just didn't really get the canyon setting for Peublo and the broken dam and whatnot... and likewise, I didn't get the name or 'two themed lands only' going on in Imaginit.

They were both really good, but I definitely prefered the pueblo canyon boardwalk. Held my attention much more and had cool details, especially the log flume and wooden rc.

I'd vote if these codes would work.....so far i've only voted on two matches lol

i voted for the canes on this one.

while peublo was a good park, and i really loved the boardwalk on it, i just felt that some parts were really detailed and some parts were just too simplistic for my tastes, and i wasn't too fond of the woodie either.

edit: and the woddie in peublo screams rattler at SFFT.

RCTFAN, I had problems with it once...that was when I wasn't sure about l,I, and 1 and about 0 and O. Maybe that's the problem you have.

The thing I found that breaks the vote codes is: if you download it, and then go to download again and choose not too overwrite (because you already have it).

What happens is that NE expects you to have the version that you just downloaded (even though you didn't) and you see the code from the one you had previously. I had trouble with this and was beside myself.

Just download, overwrite, open the 'newest' version and write down those vote codes.

I also can't see how Pueblo could possibly be losing by this margin...

The same thing happened for me too. I just redownloaded the parks and used the new voting codes.

I already looked them ingame but i need a second look to decide which i am voting for.

All I did was download the parks (whilst signed in), extract them, view them and then write down the codes and enter them just like i've done with previous rounds.

There are no characters that could be confused (i.e. o or 0) so I don't know what it is, I even tried switching the codes around.

^I'm having the same problem. I've yet to get my codes to work on the first try. I always have to go back and re-download both parks, which always seems to work. I have no clue why this would happen.

Canes get my vote this time...

Pueblo wasn't really special outside of the woodie... That "adventure ride" pissed me off like none other. Perhaps the worst take on it ever executed. Horrible car type, just went through the walls with no tunnels at all, only two trains. Just... no. And that steel coaster, nothing annoys me more than a coaster that won't leave the station without me having to turn it into test mode. I seriously waited two minutes before I gave up and did that.

I voted Alpha Legends.

I felt their park had a more interesting theme and had the atmosphere that Hurricane's lacked.

I loved the broken Steam Boat and the dam was also marvelous. The woodie was superb, a great use of the landscape. I could really put myself into the park, something I couldn't do with Hurricane's.

I voted for the pueblo one.

There's no debating the execution of the Hurricane's park (although consistency left a lot to be desired), it was nice to look at. Some nice touches, and some things I really didn't like. Didn't come together in a cohesive whole, for me. However, the good parts were almost enough to get my vote.

Almost. The good parts in Pueblo canyon were just that much better. There were some bloody awful parts to this, but at least they were true to the theme being portrayed. That said, the pueblos themselves were one of the most boring parts to this whole contest. I hope you ran out of time, to be honest, because if not then it's just not very good at all. The wooden coaster was brilliant, though, and the spiral coaster brilliant too.

To be honest I didn't really like either park that much, felt that they both were cop outs, with not enough real ideas and content to fill even a small map. Half-assery abound.

Hmm, i thought us canes would have had a blow out in this round. Eh either way, just got to keep the fingers crossed until the 120 hrs are up. Keep it up canes!
-JDP

peublo canyon was unimaginative, banal, and pure dribble it is a terrible execution of an even shittier idea...this should be a blowout

Haha, so you read my reply in match 3 chapelz?

It was just my opinion though.. I'm not sure that is yours..

SF

no, that is my true and honest opinion of the pile of shit your team put out, but at least i let the stink fumes sink in for longer than 30 minutes before expressing such a disparaging review. you know to show respect to your parkmakers.

Calm down dude.. I know you don't like my opinion, but at least I tried to explain it.. I don't need that much time to separate good stuff from shit as you apparently and certainly don't go to the other team's park and make disgrace of it for no apparent reason (yeah to try and get people to vote for the other team)..

It's just a contest for a game pal, don't go apeshit on an unimportant thing in life such as a computer game.. There are more important things, you know..

SF

A little fucking cocky, eh JDP?

*sighs*

A little fucking cocky, eh JDP?

lol....I guess Kumba's rubbing off on him.

(take that any way you want)
