Creepy Rollercoaster Will Kill You with Euphoria

[pearcinator]

LOL...That would be an awesome way to kill oneself (if I was ever going to)...it would be better if at the end of the ride if the cart goes into a morgue.

-Experience being 'on top of the world' before you die
-Give your last words (hopefully there is a recording)
-Press the button if you are certain you want to die
-On the way down...smile for the camera
-Die by going through the hectic (but fun) loops
-Cart cruises to the morgue
-Recording and photo are placed with your body so that family/friends/loved ones can see that you died in a fun, enjoyable way.

So...essentially it's the perfect death.

wow, now I really want to find my Rollercoaster Tycoon CD.

I don't have one, but this thread is making me want to hit up Steam and see if they sell it.

They don't. <link=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/rollercoaster_tycoon_deluxe>GOG does.

(DO IT! IT'S SO WORTH IT!)

They do have Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 [http://store.steampowered.com/app/2700/?snr=1_4_4__13], though. Someone, give me the rundown on the strengths and weaknesses of both!

One: The thing that started it all. Personally, I find the maps and scenarios to be better/more satisfying.

Two: Virtually identical to the first, except with more attractions and MUCH better customization.

Three: Suddenly embraces 3D, first-person roller coaster riding (AWESOME), and the visitors suddenly start behaving like real theme-park guests, having families/friend groups/etc, and you get cute things like a mom and dad standing at the side of a merry-go-round watching their giggling little girl. The sound can get overwhelming, though, and the ride-building isn't as satisfying for some reason.

I'd get RCT1 first, mostly due to price, to see if you like it. They're both totally worth your time.

The following is the prepared recording for Euthanasia Coaster passengers:

Please keep hands and feet inside the cart at all...why am I even bothering? They're dying regardless!

What do you mean I won't get paid if I don't do it right?!

You can't edit this?

*sigh*

Alright, no food or drink on the ride, no cameras or phones, and remember folks, smile big for the camera. Thank yo-

There's no camera?

Well it's in the [bleep]damned script.

It's not my fault the script is [bleep]ing wrong.

Don't you dock my [bleep]ing pay.

[loud crashing noises]

I swear if the check bounces I'm going to tear off your [bleep]ing-

(End recording.)

While anyone who's played Roller Coaster Tycoon is guilty of designing a coaster that killed people,

But I didn't MEAN for it to do that! I just sucked at coaster design! I ONLY WANTED TO BUILD A BETTER SHUTTLE LOOP!

Do you know how many virtual families recieved virtual letters in their virtual mailboxes about that virtual incident? A lot. You are virtually responsible for so much virtual grief. I'm just kiddin', they probably deserved it. The ones that virtually died in the virtual incident I mean, not the virtual families. They virtually deserved none of that virtual grief...

Thirty one. Thirty one sped to an untimely death. And I was powerless to stop them. Why oh WHY did I let it go so close to the edge in testing mode!? WHY? AND NOW THEY haunt me in my sleep. They won't let me rest. Just THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF MICROSECONDS OF "100010011101101001010101". Constantly. Thirty one times. And WHY oh WHY do coaster trains explode if a single car goes off the track? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Well virtual lesson learned, never test a virtual prototype with real virtual people, especially when you're experimenting with new virtual fuels. Hold the virtual phone...all the virtual coaster train cars virtually exploded? Did you virtually coat them all in virtual rocket fuel?!

RCT3 us just kind of terrible. You can ride your rides now which is cool, but it is ugly and just really doesn't feel as fun as the others. Also Chris Sawyer (the guy who made RCT 1&2) had no involvement in it.

RCT2 has a bunch more rides, and improves just about every ride already in the game. Also has a coaster designer mode. On the downside the scenarios in this one are really shitty and uninspired. Many of them can be won just be raising ride prices and doing nothing else. However you can download the RCT1senarios redone for the game.

I'd say go for 1.

Unrelated fun fact, Chris Sawyer programmed RCT1 almost entirely in Assembly.

Now this is how I want to go out of life.

 

[CodeOrange]

This is the most terrible idea I have ever seen.

I mean come on, it would be way cheaper to just supercharge one of those UFO centrifuge rides, and it would have the same effect.

But will it blend?

No really, I would imagine if one of those were supercharged, it would just become some sort of giant blender. This is of course me speaking with no knowledge of physics.

 

[darthricardo]

I love how he brings up the thought of population control at the end of it. That... doesn't seem quite right, somehow.

 

[PancakesSUCKTHEYDO]

This should be a dethklok song.

The dethkoaster....

 

[Brutal Peanut]

I don't even enjoy regular roller coasters. They make my chest feel tight,..I also get motion sickness fairly easily when it comes to certain rides. I'm the 'hat and purse person' in the group waiting for everyone to get off the ride, by the exit.

Sounds a bit worrying, ...to me.

 

[Aris Khandr]

I find this idea hilarious and awesome in all ways possible. It is good someone is finaly thinking of good ways to kill yourself. It is just silly it has to be done in a hospital and boring needle like a deathsentence...

HUMBUG! I say to that! Rollercoster of death is the way to go! Soon we will also have Whirlind ride of Doom! Bumpercars from Hell! And a Free Fall that NEVER STOPS FALLING!

I'm just imagining an amusement park where everything will kill you. With carnies trying to convince you that their Carousel of Doom is the way you want to die. It'd be strangely amusing to watch people compete over who gets to do me in.

 

[Linda Bridget]

I'm surprised no one has said this yet.

Well if the drop doesn't kill you the rest of the ride will.

But seriously you will never see this in the US because even if our laws make this kind of thing illegal. (I say this because when my sister tried to commit suicide and failed the cops would have arrested her if she had not had a history of being mentally disturbed) No investor would serious place their money in the construction of this thing. Because they are all about repeat business.

 

[jonyboy13]

Can't you just pump them up with drugs and then inject the poison? Same effect...

 

[Rabish Bini]

This is the most terrible idea I have ever seen.

Nah, the worst ideas ever is the jump-to-conclusions mat

 

[Somebloke]

So nobody gets the impression that this is an *art* exhibition?

(...making everything, including the fellows rap, part of the installation; more designed to make you think and possibly convey a point, that is not necessarily to be taken at face value.)

 

[thatcanadianguy]

Cue reference to suicide booth in 3... 2... 1...

please insert quarter and choose your method of death. todays special's are suffocation by nitrous oxide or death by chocolate.

 

[Alcamonic]

Wait wait wait... At around 2:45 he says that in the future it might be used against overpopulation. Which country is seriously going to kill off people in that thing?
I can think of more fun ways to die, like duct-taped to the front of a train.
