It works fine on my PC, but they also did an excellent job bringing it to consoles, using the controller is surprisingly great. I mainly play it on console now.
If anyone is worried about the lag on PC when you build larger parks, know that I have an old laptop with multiple viruses that cause it to get hot enough to burn me after 10 minutes...yet it still runs fine after building a huge park. You reeeeally have to spend multiple days on each building in order to get to the point where your computer is lagging out.
I finally got my PS5 and I'm highly thinking about getting Planet Coaster for the console, thank you so much for the video. You just earned yourself a subscriber :)
hey ! i just got planet coaster on pc ( i have the console version) but i wonder if all dlc s have the same content on each platform. For example i got the vintage pack and the blueprint for the vintage zoltan machine is there while on pc its not. Which makes me really nervous because i cant find all content on the dlc ( yes i m not dumb and im aware of which dlcs i have.
I haven’t bought all of the DLCs but from what I’ve seen, the content in the DLCs I’ve purchased aren’t different between platforms. I did notice, however, that console edition generally has more premade blueprints than on PC.
I totally understand!! I just learned how to downtown the custom content from Stream Workshop last night!!! I've been missing out the few months I've been playing... but I did see alot of content identical and/or BETTER than the DLC stuff I paid for....
In my opinion you forgot 2 important things about the pc version... 1) the cost. I've bought the key from instant gaming for less than 7€ instead of the 50 and more € of the console version 2)language. For people that don't are so skilled in English (like me) pc version can offer you translation made from users. I'm playing it in Italian on my pc, i don't know how many different languages are available on console. I always prefer to play on console because it is usually easier than the pc, turn on, take your controller and play. No compatibility problems, crashes, etc... But I actually play planet coaster on my cheap pc without any graphic card and it works acceptable to me
i play console edition but i'm thinking about switching now that i know normal planet coaster on a pc has so much cool stuff and even more packs which i am sad about.
I've only been playing a few months and just discovered the "subscribe-able" content that other stream players share, last night!! Any kinda custom content you can think of, the creators are sooooo talented, makes me wanna go back to RCT3 but I'll be busy trying to use half the cool stuff lol... I can say that I got the Ghostbusters add on when it was clearanced, I was pleased it had challenges outside of the main game, but recently downloaded a couple adventure, classic rides add ons, been busy in career so haven't really had a chance to say they were worth the $....especially since my recent Stream discovery.....I was wondering if anybody ever preferred using a console control on PC... I may try trackball, my carpal issues flared back up after all the mouse clicking :-)
I am itching to play this game for the first time. But I have a Windows 10. Now I looked at the Planet Coaster PC system requirements I got minimal fine but recommended, not so much. I'm afraid that I'll buy it, (and I'm in no position to buying a whole lot) and then immediately starts lagging as I open it. The same thing happened when I got Cities Skyline.
My low-end computer was able to run it pretty well when I turn down the quality of a few things. It also runs pretty well if I don’t build big or highly-detailed park. Things like special effects take a toll on performance too. I was able tolerate the lag for a very long time. IMO for your situation, it depends on your tolerance for game lag.
I have planet coaster on pc and console and I definitely prefer it on pc. If you use the prefab coaster elements on console then it all just glitches and you have to restart the game loosing any unsaved changes. Also if you need some help the there is so much more content on the steam workshop than the frontier workshop for you to use. But just to clarify I do still respect your opinions and I can see why you might prefer console. ;)
I actually encountered that prefab elements issue while building my first coaster on console edition. That could be fixed in a patch update but I agree that there’s a lot more content on PC edition. If I had a better PC to run this game, I would probably prefer the PC edition.
From what I know you can't download console edition for PC but the PC edition has a little bit of controller support (mainly for moving the camera around)
2 years late but to note, you can't build as high on roller coasters on console as PC. Console you can only build up ~175 Meters, while on PC You can build up 625 Meters.
PC all the way. I bought beefy unit just to play Planco at PC launch and never regretted it. Great Adventure is my home park so I like building big sprawling parks with 10+ coasters. My last park had over 300K pieces placed with 13 coasters running with 15k guest and probably 100+ staff and the FPS was still around mid 20s. The slow down doesn't bother me, I would rather be able to build the parks I want rather than sacrifice park size and coaster limits. I realize it can sometimes be expensive to build a PC with top hardware for gaming, but let's be realistic, unless you are a kid who doesn't work, they are relatively affordable, mine was. And even though it's like 6 years old now, it still performs as well as the day I bought it.
Thanks for the comparison. It's free on ps+ for feb so that will be the decider for me. I have a gaming pc I never really use to game so it would be nice to use it for this but.....whatever, free is free.
Does it mean that it is better to play with the controller or not? And what is the difference between all versions of the game because I noticed several versions, including the deluxe version and the premiere, so what is the best?
I'm not sure if they are exactly the same but I never noticed a difference in graphics quality. However, you do have control over the graphics in the PC version.
There is a way of hiding the UI on console. Push the right stick in sometimes it removes the UI but you can't get it back. You have to save the game and load it in again.
Hello, I want build make disneyland, is it better on pc ? I have console and i have a limited piece ground. Is on pc also limited piece ground ?. Regards
From what I remember yes but I don't know if you could use a controller as a primary way of controlling the game like you can with a keyboard and mouse on console edition. The last time I tried that was a pretty long time ago so things could've changed since then.
PC Of Course. Reason: Mods Like The Following: 1. Realism Overhaul 2. ACSE Smooth Tool 3. ACSE Renaming 4. ACSE Camera And Also Because You Can Add Your Own Music To it. And Yea You Just Need A Powerful CPU And A Decent GPU To Run it At Good Performance.
I do have PC and console. But i will choose PC cause i have the whole deal there. All Packs and the smaller stuff... ^^ Only thing i have to say is that the console version has something the pc has not. A kind of tutorial. That is missing on PC
@@808CoasterLife Exactly. One positive the pc version has is that it has not a limit when it comes to how much you build. Unless you count the performance of the said PC as a limit ^^ I wonder how many PC's have stopped working after building the ultimative park.
I'm sorry that my video made you feel this way. Keep in mind I'm primarily going to use console edition most of the time so obviously, it's not a bad version of Planet Coaster. I'm really liking how good the game is performing (and the build limit is not a big deal). I hope that you're now informed when thinking about buying a version of Planet Coaster.
I really don't agree with the performance category going to console because if you have a decent PC you can easily smoke the ps4 version in terms of performance.
When you said you can use a mouse on the ps4 version, SOLD! I've been recently getting back into theme park creation games and recently have played load of roller coaster tycoon 3 and have loved it but planet coaster has been on my radar as the current/next gen park sim to get and that key point was my sold point.

I have a low end pc so I got the console edition and I'm loving it.
I can see why! I like how good and consistent the console edition performs!
I have planet coaster on pc but i wonder if you could connect an controllers to it ?
I believe you can connect Xbox or PS controllers but, from what I remember, they won’t be as functional as on console edition
1:28 so thats not a problem with PZ on console, good
If you're talking about the path builder, console edition still inherits the same flaws of the PC version. So to me it's both a blessing and a curse.
