Is anyone talking about the glowing green smoke rising from the cauldron? Presently, none of the smoke effects show up at night in PC1 or PC2 from what I recall.

Correct answer for Question 56: TV Question

What TV family was the first to own a computer on screen?

A: The Addams Family (The Addams Family)

During the nineteenth episode of The Addams Family, "The Addams Family Splurges," Whizzo is introduced to the world. Having been built by Gomez and his son, Pugsley, Whizzo resides in the Addams family's playroom. In this specific episode, he's used to calculate the cost of a family trip to the Moon. Then, in usual Addams Family fashion, Gomez uses his beloved computer to predict the winners of horse races for the vacation budget.

Whizzo would be featured again in the second and final season of the series. The episode "Gomez, the People's Choice" features the Addams family as Gomez enters the race for their town's mayoral seat. During this episode, beloved Uncle Fester moves Whizzo to the family's living room to act as Gomez's "political machine." Luckily, the computer seems to help Gomez in his efforts, as he almost gets elected as the town's mayor.

On the TV show The Big Bang Theory…What was Penny’s maiden name?

D: They never said

And here is the chase view for the other track.

Headed for another climb. This one is a spiral with a bridge and underpass.

More from ground level.

Another run through a small temple.

I'm a bit happy with this update as well. I do really think some of these features are being added to help support whatever is going to be in the Spooky/magic pack. Tilted structures, and that new animation box...seams good for moving headstones, Skeletons, floating objects, etc.

Ha, that's an animal shelter, but a bench and a good sami would be very nice.

I absolutely feel you. I miss the times where we had literally devs sitting in streams explaining to us how they developed certain system of the game. Meanwhile planco 2 has certain features that were never even explained to us how they actually work…

I just want to leave this video here for nostalgia purposes :)

Its realy mindblowing when you realise there is about 20-30 hours of content that was streamed to us all related to planco 1, workshop creations, community feedback or dev deep dives. That was the frontier i fell in love with back then

These streams were one of the things that made me fall in Love with this franchise.

and a plane eating tree

These are kind off the back corner of the habitat where the guests can view animals and not be distracted by the jeep as it really doesn't go back into this corner and is blocked by mostly by scenery.

this workshop item was well done. Had all the paths marked clearly, but it was still a challenge to get it all correct. If they were flat...no problem, but these angles and elevation changes did me in.

Here is a chase view of the Heroes track. I like this view as it is a better way to see the train zipping through the terrain and scenery.

A few of the treehouses are just for looks, but some of them came from blueprints that had paths configured up in the trees. Even with those figuring out the angles and the connections was quite the ordeal. Some came out better than others, but you may be some scenery not lining up very well, etc. I tried to fix as best I could, but at some point I decided I have to move on. SO yes, some of this is sloppy work, especially for me. Shops, vending machines, and vista point also entice the guest to climb the trees and use these pathways.

More zooming and fire

Nice...and aaaah the longing for working games-of-chance in the game.

Yes, and since the forums closed to focus support on their Discord server, there has literally been no communication from anyone associated with Frontier on that server.

Also, I expected the announcement that the livestreams were over. They have been doing weekly youtube trailers for JWE3, and I figured that that format would replace the Unlocked streams, as it's much cheaper to do. The fact that they literally waited until the day of the anticipated livestream to make the announcement is reprehensible IMHO. The fact that we haven't had as much as a hotfix or anything to fix the myriad of problems with the game in 2 months now, the fact that there are things posted in the Issue Tracker since the game released and have not been addressed, proves that Frontier simply doesn't care about their player base. It's about money now, plain and simple. The days of dev teams making games they are passionate about are over. Frontier has moved over to the dark side, and there is no turning back now.

I was actually using their Discord server to add to the "Suggestions" section, but I now know that this too, is a complete waste of time, as Frontier will do what Frontier wants to do, with no concern for the community. Does this mean PC2 is dead. I certainly doubt it. They haven't milked us for all the DLCs I'm sure they have planned. IF, they have a plan, which I sometimes wonder about. Right now, it's all about getting as many pre-orders for JW3 as they possibly can. So I don't expect much support for PC2 for awhile. Any DLC that we expected to be coming soon will most likely not drop until Christmas, if anything this year.

Too bad I love the kind of games they make. I will continue to play them, and I'm sure I'll buy the DLCs, if and when they come. But I'm not doing it for any kind of support I might have for Frontier. They are just another greedy game development company, like what nearly all the other game companies have become.

Agreed. Staying active in the game is for my own fun...not to support them as a Company unless things change
