every video you make is a surprise, sometimes we wait a month and a half to get a Parkitect, others, like today, all we have to wait is a week! Thank you so much!
Oh and by the way, I'm so curious if you will reach the optional goals. I had trouble with the 5000k, but in general I built a pretty decent eurofighter, that was really long, but had several block breaks in it.
In my digging, "Dutch Gables" are Baroque style gables with decorative ends (common through The Netherlands, Belgium, etc). Dutch Hipped on the other hand, is merging a gable roof (for increased attic space) and hipped roof (for larger rain shadow to protect foundations, and increased shade - both of which highly desirable in sunnier climates). So it makes sense why it's not a common Dutch architectural element, but it is popular throughout the Mediterranean, Caribbean and west indies, and nowadays in Australasia (can vouch for that) and the south US. I suspect it's the "west indies" part of that distribution that gave it the name Dutch, but I couldn't find anything to confirm that.
as far as I can tell the design came to america from european traders, possibly from the netherlands. could just be the association of trading and the dutch that brought about the name.
I’ve honestly been looking forward to the Batavia Cay episode haha. I had a lot of fun with that scenario and was curious to see what you did with it. Keep up the good work as always dude!
The thing I like about you Silv is not just your roller coaster and your layouts but your scenery skills are just amazing I wish I had that talent. Nice vid FAV RUclipsr!!!!
They Silv, just had an idea What if, by the end of the playthrough, you held a couple surveys. Find out what was the best park, best coaster and etc by popular vote? Either way, awesome, I loved the coasters on this one. I found myself just staring at that mountain and the tangle of coasters running.
I cant really get a feel for speed without using the ride a ride mod to see what "feels" right. The scaling is kind of weird as you say. Still love the videos, keep up the great work sir!
Silvarret your Parkitect series is amazing, even on my third play through. I really enjoy your commentary, both of what you are doing, your interesting facts and history, and your detailed coaster explanations. The tutorials you provide in each video are so great. I just love that you’re sticking with the vanilla game and proving what can be done with a beautifully designed game (no shade intended to the mod creators/users out there). I hope you’re proud of all the hard work you’ve put in to help design this game. Looking forward to more... “to be honest”. 😁
Your videos are really great. Just by watching you build those amazing parks you inspired my whole gaming experience. I now love the game even more and my parks are starting to look so much better. Thank you so much 👍
Have to agree that some of the coasters in previous scenarios seemed (really) slow, but that might just be that people (myself included) are used to the speed of them in RCT and other games. As long as you are sure they go at good speeds for Parkitect you wont hear me complaining.
Only Togo I’ve ridden was The Roller Coaster in Vegas.......so as much as I like this in RCT, PlanCo (although B&M only), and Parkitect, I don’t have a good experience of them in real life. Silv was right when they said America got the shitty Togo’s.
In response to your coaster speed musings Silvarret; I find that Parkitect seems to be a bit "floaty" with its coaster speeds (i.e. they seem slower than they are) which is part of the charm and aesthetic. It allows you to appreciate what you build without a coaster train rocketing through breaking the serenity.
Ride speed seems fine to me. I usually check if the forces seem too high or too low to judge whether it's working with the game's physics model (that applies to any game).
Super fun video as always! I beat this one with a wild mouse, a junior coaster, a second steel coaster, and tons upon tons of flat rides. Oh, also, four separate food courts, one on each side of the island, so the guests would stop complaining about food. It took me a while to get the 5K profit, but it eventually happened while I was AFK lol.
Great video. With regard to your comment on 'more intense' family-coasters, I believe coasters can get away with a higher lifthill or launch, as they generally are smoother than their predecessors 20 years ago.
That's a fair point. I also think that, as the public rides roller coasters, their resistance to G-forces builds up. That's certainly something I experienced when I got over my fear three years ago.
@@Silvarret You're spot on. As the rollercoaster community matures and is willing to travel for top rides, I think amusement parks have become more international and shy away from rides that are middle-of-the-road and fair-like. On top of that, lap bars and general restraints improved, which is why coasters with higher G-forces (as you mention) are now more accessible for the public. I still remember the days when I was scared of 'El Condor' or 'Python'. But both are/were just quite uncomfortable experiences.
No matter what coaster game you throw at him, even if it’s on windows 95 he will still find a way to make the best coasters and the most scenic tracks and stations.
I love the speed of the rides. One of a few things I don't like about rollercoaster tycoon is just how fast everyone marches around, and how fast rides go. but i guess they needed to do that, becuse people spend literally days at a real park, vs the 3 hours you play and have to cram 3 years into that. Also, I can't believe rides like Cheetah hunt are family coasters. I struggle even with kiddie coasters :/
Random thing, but I really like the Orbiter queue. I'm guilty of mostly using flat or the symmetrically split roofs for mine. The asymmetry really works, especially with these angled beams. Gotta try it sometime with a more modern/sci-fi glass roof or something. Also - not sure how would you rate the scenario after actually finishing it, but the requirements were a bit misleading, I'd say? Didn't feel it was that bad to me - Adventure Island, Archipelago Adventures or the upcoming HappyCo Harbour definitely felt harder IMO. But then again, I try to complete all goals (so, to reference something else you've said, I already had to scrap quite a few parks I've been deep into building - depending when was the last autosave) - which also made Mystic Oasis surprisingly hard to me, since the time limit was so short. Sadly it comes at the expense of actually making it pretty/realistic, since it's actually something I haven't actually done a lot. Just whatever works.
Thanks! I agree, the scenario requires a lot, but it is very easy. Especially because you start off with many rides, a lot of land, and 2 very profitable coasters from the start.
I know this was published nearly 3 years ago, but I think the reason why your rides are slow is not your fault but the coaster's pacing in-game. Whenever I build something, it often feels like the rides immediately lose nearly all their speed way too quickly.
How do your parks make so much money, when it looks like you're barely even trying??? Even when you sometimes forget to open your rides? It's insane. I blame your coasters, they're just TOO GOOD. Don't listen to people saying they look too slow. If you got good stats and you're happy with it, they run well in game and make tons of money then that's all that matters. I am surprised that you didn't build this scenario, I thought for sure that you did! With these sort of scenarios I'm always afraid of running out of room, so I smush the rides super close together and it doesn't look as nice. You're so confident in your ride placement! I just realized that the station to the flying coaster reminds me of a mini golf hole. XD
Thank you! I recently realized that indeed, the coasters make all the difference. Not to mention that all the scenery I place does increase excitement ratings by a lot, so I can demand huge sums of money from guests for riding the coasters, and at that point the income from flatrides I forget to open doesn't even matter anymore lol.
Another nice addition to your Campaign walk-through. I saw that you have many shops / food courts in th is park. What do you think about the amount that has to be between food courts throughout the park and the amount of food courts in your park(s) in general? Would like to know how you (all) think about that.
I always liked the B&M standup coasters (Riddler's Revenge is in fact one of my favorite roller coasters of all time). Bit of a shame B&M stopped building them in favor of floorless coasters, though I can see why they did it I suppose.
You make some of the most amazing parks ive ever seen. but i cant help but be slightly disappointed that water rides and gokarts were mostly ignored. especially water rides for maps with lakes or ocean tiles.
I've only ever been on one stand up coaster in Kings Dominion in Richmond VA, USA and I guess I was just a little to short? My head kept getting banged around more then on other sit down coasters and riding it always gave me a migraine.
Silv. I know this is pushing it, but can you share that launched coaster for learning purpose on steam? I think a lot of us could appreciate it(I know I did) along, if you are willing, with the coasters from your learning video some weeks ago. Hands on approach is the best for me for trying to see what works. That Monorail Coaster you shared from wild west episode really helped me!
Do you think one day you could PLEASE make a video on roofing techniques. Or even just slow it down just a touch when you do roofing in a video. I'm really trying to absorb some of your technique. But it's soooo fast i can'T see any of the pieces that you were using Thanks again for your help
Great video, can't wait for the next Parkitect vid in the series. Btw, if it ever comes up again in a game, the word "cay" is pronounced "key", as in house key, car key, etc... Not trying to nitpick, just trying to help!
Thank you! And thanks for correcting me, another beautiful case of a word where you just have to know how to pronounce it. I knew Quay was 'key' but didn't know it goes for Cay too :')
The reason why family coasters are getting more speed. Coasters to me feel like you are not moving in them at all. There are no head bangers for example, which is really quite sad.
I wish I could build half as good as this. I don’t have that part of the brain at all, and yet I still enjoy these games. But when I try to emulate some of this stuff, it’s such an utter failure
Hey I am currently finishing this one myself. Trying to do it completely to make it looks nice. But I am struggling with making nice stations for coasters. Especially with coaster that start quite high. Would perhaps find it ok to share steam saves? In any case awesome video!
i have so many rides. I have the entire map covered in rides. The scenery is amazing, I make only about 2k a month. But I am on like year 5 and I only maxed out to 800 guests. I am stuck on this one. Edit, thanks for some ideas. I manage to beat the level finally, the scenery matters a lot.
´he knows nobody likes a Standup coaster, because its a stupid base design to have to stand in a coaster....he builds one anyway and tortures his gastes with it ...Good job XD
Struggling on this map so jump on RUclips to see what people did. Proceed to have a 10 minute stress out because time is flying by while he casually builds without pausing the game lol. Beautiful park but didn't help me figure out how to ace this map XD.
Personally I think it will be worth it if they can improve the performance. 1000 guests really shouldn't be a problem and AFAIK that doesn't run well yet. (the old RCT1 and 2 could handle a couple of 1000's guests)
They were just a gimmick, I think. I enjoyed the TOGO standup coaster I rode because it was short and simple, but for the B&M standup I've been on I would've just preferred to ride it with floorless trains tbh.
@@Silvarret i would agree standing in line to stand on the ride is a weird concept and a floorless coaster makes more sense. Stand up coasters arent as comfortable, if im correct b&m standups and floorless are the same track. And for TOGO i dont think ive liked any of their coasters ive been on but none were standup
I'm so spoiled with all the parkitect content
Someone BOSS NOW WITH FASTER UPLOAD RATE !!!!!!!!
every video you make is a surprise, sometimes we wait a month and a half to get a Parkitect, others, like today, all we have to wait is a week! Thank you so much!
It's Easter Holiday, so my upload rate is a tad faster now :)
@@Silvarret thats promising 8) cant wait for more parkitect
That's such a nice Easter gift to bring the next episode after just a week of waiting :)
Oh and by the way, I'm so curious if you will reach the optional goals. I had trouble with the 5000k, but in general I built a pretty decent eurofighter, that was really long, but had several block breaks in it.
In my digging, "Dutch Gables" are Baroque style gables with decorative ends (common through The Netherlands, Belgium, etc). Dutch Hipped on the other hand, is merging a gable roof (for increased attic space) and hipped roof (for larger rain shadow to protect foundations, and increased shade - both of which highly desirable in sunnier climates). So it makes sense why it's not a common Dutch architectural element, but it is popular throughout the Mediterranean, Caribbean and west indies, and nowadays in Australasia (can vouch for that) and the south US. I suspect it's the "west indies" part of that distribution that gave it the name Dutch, but I couldn't find anything to confirm that.
as far as I can tell the design came to america from european traders, possibly from the netherlands. could just be the association of trading and the dutch that brought about the name.
A lot of farms have that kind of roof in the north of the Netherlands. Not sure if it references that though.
I've watched your Parkitect series for two times now and I'm so happy so see new episodes! Keep them coming I love them so much! :)
Yeah I’m so happy that Parkitect videos are now coming out soo fast!
Build more food, would like to see how different food court are themed.
I’ve honestly been looking forward to the Batavia Cay episode haha. I had a lot of fun with that scenario and was curious to see what you did with it. Keep up the good work as always dude!
*Silv: Hit the record button*
*Silv in vid :* Gosh, i'm *so proud* of myself
You Pizza thief
The thing I like about you Silv is not just your roller coaster and your layouts but your scenery skills are just amazing I wish I had that talent. Nice vid FAV RUclipsr!!!!
They Silv, just had an idea
What if, by the end of the playthrough, you held a couple surveys. Find out what was the best park, best coaster and etc by popular vote?
Either way, awesome, I loved the coasters on this one. I found myself just staring at that mountain and the tangle of coasters running.
I cant really get a feel for speed without using the ride a ride mod to see what "feels" right. The scaling is kind of weird as you say.
Still love the videos, keep up the great work sir!

Having ridden a Togo standup. The helix was one of the smoothest parts of the coaster. It was the bunny hop hills that got you.

Such amazing parks i like it
Honestly watched this whole thing instead reviewing for a test. Probably learned more watching this lol. Great work as always Silv.
3 years later, and B&M is reviving the standup genre. Who would’ve guessed
amazing coaster interactions. i would love to ride each of those in turn, the park would look amazing from them.
In response to your coaster speed musings Silvarret; I find that Parkitect seems to be a bit "floaty" with its coaster speeds (i.e. they seem slower than they are) which is part of the charm and aesthetic. It allows you to appreciate what you build without a coaster train rocketing through breaking the serenity.
always a blast to see someone with so much knowledge and passion playing this game! keep it up! also - ho boy - those new scenarios look fun!
A Pretzel Loop is probably one of my favorite elements. There is nothing quite like it and it just feels amazing to ride through one
I dont even like rollercoasters or rollercoaster games but these videos are so enjoyable.
That pink TOGO actually fits really well.
Beach has been my fav so far can't wait to see your take on it
Loveeee this! These are honestly amazing and I love what you do in these parks so much!
I realized that your standup coaster is similar to Black Hole Express’s layout, even tho it’s a MK-1200 and not a Togo Stand-up.
Ride speed seems fine to me. I usually check if the forces seem too high or too low to judge whether it's working with the game's physics model (that applies to any game).
wow such an unexpected short release after the last one! i'm craving for more parkitect videos from you : D
This was the surprise i (and like everyone else it seems) needed right now! thanks silv :D
One of my fav B&Ms is a standup coaster, Georgia Scorcher. Fun ride.
Super fun video as always! I beat this one with a wild mouse, a junior coaster, a second steel coaster, and tons upon tons of flat rides. Oh, also, four separate food courts, one on each side of the island, so the guests would stop complaining about food.

Six Flags Over Georgia has one of the best stand-up coasters, Georgia Scorcher. It just got a new repaint.
the B&M stand up coaster Riddlers Revenge is awesome
Yes another video! Nice work Silvarret!

I feel like your "intense" coasters are going at family coaster speeds. Coaster Canyon will be a nice challenge for you :)
You know that helix is made Mack rides but I still loved your video
yay i love this series
Here comes the flat ride cavalry!
You make some of the most amazing parks ive ever seen. but i cant help but be slightly disappointed that water rides and gokarts were mostly ignored. especially water rides for maps with lakes or ocean tiles.
I'll focus a bit more on these in the future! Actually, the next episode will feature go karts.

Looks like you get 100 guests per coaster, this is gonna be tough for me lol
I wish I could build half as good as this. I don’t have that part of the brain at all, and yet I still enjoy these games. But when I try to emulate some of this stuff, it’s such an utter failure
This park looks amazing. I would like to play Parkitect myself, by you know .. Planet Coaster right?
This is my dilemma every day still...
The standup was great, especially compared to the 3 togo clones that paramount made in their parks
Like, I get the need to do time lapse, but I wanna see how you build this stuff
Hey I am currently finishing this one myself. Trying to do it completely to make it looks nice. But I am struggling with making nice stations for coasters. Especially with coaster that start quite high.
Would perhaps find it ok to share steam saves?
In any case awesome video!
Does parkitect run well on Macs because I’ve been thinking of getting it.
OOF, I heard "Happy pearl harbor" Im like excuse me
bruh yes!!! more parkitect!!
I'm very conflicted, I love Parcitechet, But I really want the Uzuri Gardens!!! HELP!
i have so many rides. I have the entire map covered in rides. The scenery is amazing, I make only about 2k a month. But I am on like year 5 and I only maxed out to 800 guests. I am stuck on this one. Edit, thanks for some ideas. I manage to beat the level finally, the scenery matters a lot.
Seems like this game can still use some optimization? Any info if they're gonna work on that framerate ?
I have no idea honestly, but I agree - for me, the graphics could be toned down too though, but the game could definitely run better as it is.
´he knows nobody likes a Standup coaster, because its a stupid base design to have to stand in a coaster....he builds one anyway and tortures his gastes with it ...Good job XD
Does the game get stuck with so many people? Or runs smoothly?
framerate definitely drops near the end of the scenario.
Idk why I had hard time getting in the zone for this map. I had to restart 3 times cause I didn't like how I started it
Teacups never got an entrance?
Do you have the pov mod for the coasters
It ist so a good project
Isn't it smart to start out with some shops?
But how to download parkitect?
Why don't you do povs of the coasters? There is a pov mode.
I want to keep this series entirely vanilla, and avoid breaking the isometric perspective.
@@Silvarret ok
Which coaster do you like more: Taron or Helix? I personally prefer Taron :)
Taron, for the scenery and atmosphere. Helix is almost just as good, though!
Love
Struggling on this map so jump on RUclips to see what people did. Proceed to have a 10 minute stress out because time is flying by while he casually builds without pausing the game lol. Beautiful park but didn't help me figure out how to ace this map XD.
omg yes
Is parkitect worth $30
I finished campaign mode after about 240 hours playtime and haven‘t even touched scenario mode yet. Just buy it!
That depends on what you're into, but if you like the old Rollercoaster Tycoon or Theme Park World games I think you'll like it.
Personally I think it will be worth it if they can improve the performance.
1000 guests really shouldn't be a problem and AFAIK that doesn't run well yet. (the old RCT1 and 2 could handle a couple of 1000's guests)
Do you have a Mac because I’m concerned with how well it will run on macs. But at least steam has a refunds!
Where is uzuri gardens?
