Coasters designed on RCT?

Jools

Giga Poster
I have seen a few places, that in some peoples opinions, some rides were designed on RollerCoasterTycoon, such as; Manhatten Express and Gemini are the two that I remember first.

Are there anyrides where you wouldn't be suprised if this was the case?
 
Kumali I can see being designed on RCT3.

I mean, lift, turny drop, straight track, loop, straight track, cobra roll, straight track, twist, straight track, helix, brake run.

But other than that I wouldn't imagine so.
 
Anyone else see the RCT2 Colossus done by John Wardley (supposedly)? I'm not at all suggesting it was designed on there, just that he did it for his own fun.

I'll try and find the image and post it if I can.

Edit: Can't find it.

This is kind of a dumb topic, I mean, with enough hacking, ANY coaster looks like it could have been designed on RCT.

I think it's dumb thinking that.
Especially considering you were the person who said mManhatten Express was designed on RCT Taylor.

What I mean is (prehaps the topic title is what makes people think that is what I mean), have you ridden something and thought it was badly designed in the sense that is has a lot of jolts between elements, or seems a bit... can't think of the word... false? Basic? :?
 
I know what he means. Like snappy transitions between elements, long pointless straight track, and banking is all over the place.
Bcause that's all RCT can do he was asking if there's any real life coasters that seem like the person who built them used RCT as a guide or something. :P

He doesn't mean if anyone ACTUALLY used it.
 
Millennium Coaster at Fantasy Island, for that long flat straight after the loop before the sidewider.

Kumali is a good shout too.

Exactly what I meant :thankyou:
 
Hypersonic XLC and Dodonpa, perhaps? I mean: Banking change only occurs on bits on straight track, and the banking stays on the same angle until it gets back to flat.

Also, I bet Teeny-Weeny was designed in ten minutes with a pencil only. Then again, it's so small it simply doesn't matter.
 
[quoet]I think it's dumb thinking that.

Where the hell did I say Manhatten Express was designed on RCT? I'd like a direct quote because I never remember saying that.
 
When I got off Dragon Mountain I thought "that felt like some real n00bs first attempt at a roller coaster on RCT!

Also, when I first saw Maverick, I thought "that easy looks like something my little brother would make on RCT and I would go 'that's soo unrealistic!'")

Dragon Mountain the main one though, it was just so friggin' wierd!
 
Also Spinning Wild Mouse coaster. Especially Tyfonen at Tivoli Friheden. It seemed to have the colours that are available in RCT, had those simple RCT signs that they have and even had a glass covered station like you could change it to in RCT2. :lol:

Skip to 1:29 in this video and it looks exactly like a screenshot from RCT. :lol:

Way to sum up the topic while still managing to completely miss the point of it.

Yah, I did miss the point at first, but I get it now, though there's no coaster that really springs to mind except maybe the Arrow loopers. But, according to Jools, I apparantly said Manhattan Express looks like it was designed in RCT, though he hasn't given me a direct quote yet.
