CoasterBuzz Games file exchange open

Jeff's avatar
Not precisely related to CP, but I thought I'd pass along that I'm beta testing CoasterBuzz Games here:

http://games.coasterbuzz.com/

You'll need to register on the regular CoasterBuzz site first to upload or download anything. We're currently accepting and exchanging files for Roller Coaster Tycoon, Hyper Rails and No Limits.

No Offense, or maybe this is more of a question, (and I only ask this becuase I am an editor for another caster site). Did you open this becuase thrillnetwork.com did? Or did you already have the idea?

You're not serious are you? Do you think I ever look at anything Thrillnetwork does? Last time I went there it had a blank home page. Oh look, it still does. What a joke. That site is for kiddies who post things like, "OMG did u c wht cp is bilding!!!!111 it roXorz u!!!!!1"

Think about it... what possible reason would I have to incur more bandwidth use when CoasterBuzz is already the most visited site on the Internet behind RCDB? I did it because it was easy to build quickly and all of the exchanges I've seen so far kind of suck, or are too heavily biased toward one game.

I've been considering doing a file exchange for ages, and since no one seems to want to support Hyper Rails, and RCT2 is coming in three weeks, it was time.

Thats fine, I just wanted to get an answer. I'm glad that you did do it because the 'Speed Zone' outright, just sucks!

Two suggestions: Separate different game platforms, like RCT and HR. I think it could ease searching, and make less clutter.

Also, somewhat on the same wavelength, having the choice of how coasters/saved games are sorted. For example, having the option of sorting by most recent, alphabetical, etc.

Other than that, so far so good! Can't wait to see this when it's in the final release!

What would you say if I told you I met my Homecoming date at Cedar Point?

As I said, it's beta, not complete. As it says on the home page, "More complete features will rollout over the course of the next week or so."
