Planet Coaster Alpha: Thoughts, Review, & RCTW Beta Comparison - KevCast

Since my review for the RCTW beta seemed to be well received, I figured I'd make one for the Planet Coaster alpha.

I don't need to watch this, this just popped up on my home page on yt. I'll sub just because
Not many May watch, but this is a gem 💎
This video came just in time for me. Ive been trying to learn for a couple weeks now. Going to use this method every chance i get. Until i get it!
I have almost 2000 hours with normal air roll, it's so hard to change muscle memory man. I tried many times to learn directional air roll in the past 6 years but I always go back to normal air roll lol
What i did to learn directional air roll was play free play only every day for a month. I now have better car control than 99% of champs
ELECTRICITY AND WATER ARE A PAIN, AND THERE ARE NO ELEVATORS. DOES THE SAME HAPPEN TO ANYONE?
lets go bro is back
Champ 3 with 1800 hours here. I love your video, you opened a mindset that i didn't know i wanted. I can't believe your down to earth mindset, and i hope that i'll use that mindset eventually. ❤❤
Might be a stretch but hear me out theme park tycoon 2 on roblox people Can build some crazy stuff but you do need gamepasses but getting gamepasses is sort of like paying for the game since roblox is free to download
Oh interesting, I'll have to check that out! Thanks for the suggestion!
@@KevCast Np mate keep up the good Work
People that have this opinion CLEARLY have never played Planet Coaster 1 at launch lol. It was the exact same mess and horrible experience. Give the game time, it’ll be fine. Stop panicking.
Bro, this is the dumbest response that I keep reading on UA-cam comments and Reddit. If you’re launching a sequel to a game you released 8 years ago, users should expect that you’ve learned from all those mistakes and have improved upon them. I’m having fun, but this whole “dude they had these problems before, they’ll fix them again” mindset is absolutely bizarre to me. Like…if they already fixed all the bugs in the first one, they should already be sorted out in the second one. Sequels are supposed to be iterative and build on what you learned from the previous game, not restarting from square one and launching with all the same issues.
Not sure where you got the impression I was panicking, but I did play the alpha of the first game pretty extensively (I even made a video about it 8 years ago lol). I'll admit I didn't play a ton of the final game at launch but tend to agree with the person above me that developers should learn from their mistakes. Regardless, I don't plan on giving up all hope on PC2, especially given some of the other comments here pointing out flaws with my impressions. I'll keep an eye on it and take another stab if any of the changes are promising!
Then the game isn't worth buying and it's not panicking to get a refund for a sloppily made sequel.
you can turn off needing power and stuff like utilities in the settings for your sandbox park
I wish I knew that before making this video 😭 but thanks for setting the record straight!
na what you mentioned is facts, i played over 6 hours now and want to return this plant coaster 2
Here is what I have to say as I watched. I also have a lot of criticisms with Planet Coaster 2; however, they are a bit more justified. To immediately start and say a game should be accessible and easy to understand without an included tutorial is rather absurd ("I shouldn't need a tutorial to figure out your game"). The tutorial, which is included and is not difficult to find, helps clarify many of your initial complaints. Other issues that you discussed such as the need for power to start rides could be resolved if you had taken the time to do so. For example, there are 3 different sandbox presents, one of which disables power and most management aspects. I agree that the DLCs are a problem and Frontier does too, which is why they apologized for the DLCs and are working to resolve the overwhelming disapproval. In result, while I do find that the DLC issue and not being the vibe you wanted are fair complaints, I think the rest of this video is unjust and paints the wrong picture for those watching the video considering playing Planet Coaster 2. The game thrives in many aspects and many of your complaints, that viewers may find discouraging, are simply untrue and unfair due to your impatience. So if anyone is reading this considering playing the game, take criticisms lightly and try it out for yourself.
Honestly, I agree with everything you said - I realized after I had refunded that there was a tutorial that I just missed, though I still think there is room to make the game more intuitive without it. I had no idea about the other sandbox options that disables power though, that's really good to know. I also didn't know that Frontier responded about the DLC packs, so that's another good thing to keep an eye on how they handle that going forward. I definitely was a bit too impatient with this game, which I tried to acknowledge towards the end, but I am open to giving it another shot in the future, especially given the lack of true alternatives. I appreciate your thoughtful response!
This is definitely a well made criticism of the game. While I personally enjoy it for what it is, I can certainly see where you are coming from as I've run into a few bugs here and there. Keep up the good work, and I hope you can find another Theme Park Sim that fits your model! (Parkitect is a great alternative to me as well 😉)
Continue these videos bro. 🐐
Kevpert is that you
I've played it 4 hours since I got it mid November. I've been frustrated for about 3.95 of those hours and haven't wanted to break it out since. Such a shame
About 2 years ago I told my friend "I wish there was was a way to train on a map with no floor, no ceiling, no walls, just a forever free fall. Then I can just mess with air roll and see what does what" and here we are...
I was just thinking that watching someone do helicopter resets. Thinking I would probably need an arena like that.
I know I need a pop filter 😭 We'll have one before the next video, promise 🙏 Apologies to your ears in advance!
Best Air Roll Tutorial
Good effort and thought put into your process. However, you need to sit down and watch the Losfeld 2 hour thesis on air roll. Mainly because your method on how to turn is quite limited compared to Losfeld’s reverse clock method which greatly increases your turning abilities in the air, including verticality. Also Losfeld’s method of only starting from the neutral revolution is more straightforward than trying to remember what the car does at different parts of the rotation.
Yea I definitely think I'm going to have to give that video another watch, as you aren't the first person to bring up his methods here. My goal was to give people an easy foundation to start from, as that Losfeld video is pretty dense with information, but perhaps that's needed given the complexity of the mechanic. Either way, I'll definitely give it another go and report back with what I learn!
@ for sure. I think what isn’t out there is someone condensing and simplifying his video (while giving him credit). That would be very valuable. If you do watch it, focus on the “turning 2.0 (reverse clocks)” and the exercises section. The “clock” section is a rhythm training mechanism he devised but it isn’t meant to make you turn better. Whereas the “reverse clock section” actually gives you insane turning capabilities. But you need his foundational principles to do reverse clocks such as only turning on the neutral revolution. The “exercises” section shows that applying his actual method isn’t that hard or complicated (unlike his video lol); I learned the most from the exercise section after I spent time watching the video to understand the method. Good luck!
super helpful! I appreciate how you're not overly energetic for no reason (every other youtuber lmao) very chill

Is that a PC only map pack
It shouldn't be, as it works on my switch as well!
@KevCast thank you
map doesn't work for me, it drops me in the field at the roof? anyone have this problem?
Weird, sorry about that! I know of a couple other out of map packs if this one doesn't work. Try these ones: B85B-DBC9-471F-2DDA 70CB-1AC0-391A-0F7F
@@KevCast Second one works for me, thanks! Great tutorial btw
Online free play update seems to have broke quite a few as well
@@KevCast Having the same problem, first 2 codes spawn me in the map, last one spawns me outside but theres a shot clock.
any other ones handy?
did kevpert forget his yt password? You got the same ass camera settings using the civic too
Im thinking the same thing
Oh wow, I only recently heard of Kevpert but didn't know our settings and cars were so similar - a true man of culture!
Hmmm very fishy
Great video, this is pretty much how I learned it. After this, all you really need is to put hours in the game and get creative in freeplay between matches
Easiest subscribe of my life.
i use air roll right and have a tutorial on my channel
Im 35yo and i just started playing RL 6 months ago
Love to hear that man! Hope you're enjoying it!
Great video! One thing to experiment is also spinning the joystick (air roll L - counter clockwise, Air roll R - clockwise). Vary the speed at witch you spin the joystic as well as the size of the circles you make with the joystick. In a way, you are spinning the joystick along with the car and it sorta feels like you're balansing the way the car turns or "leans" or "falls". If you slow down the spin of the joystick the car will turn in one direction and when you speed up, the car will turn differently. The point is to not analyse anything, just experiment by feel as if there is a direct connection from your thumb to the car and you just try to figure out that connection. Fun fact, if you spin the joystic 2 times faster than the car (2 circles in a second) the car wont turn at all. Also, if you spin the joystick to the wrong direction, it will cancel everything and the car will also just go straight forward.
Thanks for the suggestion! This sounds pretty similar to the "Losfeld method" video that's out there, but I honestly couldn't quite get the hang of that when I tried it before. I'll give it another shot!
@@KevCast Yeah, I also used quite a lot of different approaches when learning. I think for me, just like you teach, learning to know how certain adjustments look and learning to recognize how to manipulate those in 3D (no matter the camera angle) was a big thing (intead of having to wait to see the hood or the bottom of the car. I'm not familiar with the Lostfeld method but I also used some rhythm utilisation myself. For example, if you are turning left, you turn right by doing the exact same adjustment by repeating that adjustment 0,5 seconds later. In terms of rhythm, you count to 4 as in music (1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and). Or just "1 and 1 and 1 and... etc. if certain adjustment now turns you left or wherever, to do the exact opposite or mirror adjustment you just time the same adjustment to fall on the "and". This means in practice that if you are turning say left, by doing certain adjustment everytime you see the hood (one adjustment per second) you can still do the same thing but you just do one with only 0,5 second in between and them back to normal again. Another way to think about it is to go from upbeats to downbeats as in musical counting. This method is cool because you dont need to analyse the position of the car at all. You only need a reference point and that is always the adjustment you're currently doing in any given time. The only thing that changes is the timing. I developed this method because at one time I had a tendency to easily turn one direction but not the other (as I was doing a "slalom drill" where you just fly forward with a lot speed and try to zig zag left and right as fast as possible). I personally used the "brute force" mehod mostly where I would fly fully boosted through the first levels of neon rings and medieval rings. I used the rhythm method and some others (the spinning mehod) where you don't need to analyse the position of your car to do the adjustments and just tried to get the hang of it intuitively without thinking about it. It still took like 100 hours or something but the brute force method was SO powerful for me, because you get some many black out moments so quickly (because you don't have time to consciously analyze what you're doing) and that's where the intuitive learning happens. And by the way, learning the other direction (I started with ARR but later also learned ARL, which actually became my main air roll) was surprisingly easy. It wasn't like learning it all again from the beginning, because you already had trained all the "mirrored" skills.
If you start air rolling at all, do both
Agree 💪
Three*
i don’t think that’s true. one DAR and manual roll is all you need. just mirror depending on what wall you are. the only time i use my non dominant air roll direction is stall resets which… are cool, ig?
Yes I can do both
Free air roll is useless if you have both directional air rolls

Great video mate! Worth watching 28 min ✌
Underrated bro
Appreciate it 🙏
@KevCast no problem g. Keep going.
Este tutorial es muy útil, más aún para quienes estamos aprendiendo desde 0! Muchas gracias por el video, Kev!
Really Helpful :)
This was such a wholesome tribute and I agree with the sentiment 100%!
Ayeee dope vid bro! Also I remember some clips in there 👀 although epic taking control of RL is a little scary at times it still makes me feel like they’ll put money into it and maybe listen to the community more and more. Not exactly epics fortè but 🤷♂️
Thank you man 🙏 and yea not to say I'm overly confident that Epic will do anything good for the game - maybe they'll get their head out their asses eventually - just that Rocket League will survive and evolve despite them.
nice video man! I don´t even play RL but you got a new subscriber
Bro, I swear on my life I'm not lying. I noticed I had never made a review on Steam before, and RL is my all time favorite game. I accidentally ended up writing this novel about how much I love RL. The way my Steam review sounds is EERILY similar to this video/script. Anyways, I share your passion for this game. I also truly believe that in the end, RL will be okay. I think a lot of people are doomist right now in the community and I've been trying to spread positivity whenever I can. This game is WAY too unique and WAY too fun to just "die" out.
That's amazing about your review, I'd love to read that! And totally agreed about the future of the game - thanks for spreading positivity!
Cadence, pacing, production 🔥🔥🔥! I love this
Love this
Hell yeah
