The game is crashing loads since the update. Also in the path tool, when selecting any other path type than default the icon does not change, but you do lay the selected path type. Annoying to see DLC coming out when the game is still this buggy at its core. I hope this gets a hotfix soon or we get another update before christmas.

introducing new bugs, now we can't put staff in zones ... GG

Are you sure about that? I have several workers in various personnel areas in my park and I have had no problems. The only thing is that if you open the menu of work and rest days, if you select the area to assign, it does not stay saved in the menu, but however if you click on the worker, the area you have selected does appear, therefore the problem is the UI that is bugged, but even so the worker will go to the area you have assigned to him.

WATER??? I can no longer delete water as in ponds - - - this is a hold up

[Yrrejutusa]

Game is nearly unplayable now. Things work for a while, then not. Research screen is blank, guests don't visit shops, cannot place paths at all (at random times), game crashes sooooo much. Everything was good before the "update".

[副本本本咯咯~]

78X3D 79XTX 24.12.1 24.9.1 Go to pieces，Please fix it as soon as possible 。Unable to play properly

[SLG]

There was some download today when I logged into Steam for Planet Coaster 2.

[cearaivory]

Okay, now how about fixing the bug where guests are getting stuck on rides and won't leave!

Oh cool paid DLC already. What an absolute disappointment of a sequel so far

If there was only a way you were not forced to pay it...

[RobBoss1]

Half the patch notes are just things they didn't finish before release. Lets not pretend things like separate loading/unloading stations were something just added due to demand after launch. It was almost expected after making multiple previous games with this feature. Glad we can decorate tracked rides and transport rides finally, but wasn't decorating rides one of the biggest things advertised before the launch of Planco2?
The game is STILL unfinished yet we are already 2 DLC's in?!?! This is how you ruin a companies reputation forever...

I have now decided: I have written a negative review and made it clear what I think of the way Frontier Dev. treats its customers.

Fortunately, everyone can decide for themselves whether to write.

If Frontier doesn't understand it any differently, then there will be negative reviews.

I've had enough. As of today, the UI is also broken.

[jdiddie424]

I cant access the workshop or franchise. it says "cannot connect to game server. check to make sure connected to internet." Im connected to the internet and everything else is working. frustrating

[sumiin]

[♡Ⲙⲁⲛ𝓰ⲟ♡]

We are witnessing another RCTWorld in the making.

[Turtles]

How do you repair and refurbish the steam train?

[ItsMeSkeptic]

When can we expect more updates? DLCs? (Talking scenery pieces. I've tried the viking roof now, even in blue)
