According to the FAQ, it says Coney Island will have rollercoasters. Does anyone know if you can ride them? That would be sweet!

That would be stupid and a waste of time, in my opinion. I wouldn't be surprised if it was added.

It would be absolutely amazing if you could ramp up the steps and drive on the tracks. I guess I'm going a bit overboard...

Ah, driving on the Roller Coaster tracks would be MUCH more fun. Great idea.

I read that Kid has a calmness meter. A rollercoaster ride can boost up his adrenaline!

where did you read this?

I read it on that french website Driver-Dimension. Be sure you get it translated. The grammer's goofy but I tried to put the pieces together, if you know what I mean. Said something about a calmness meter, don't get me wrong.

Alright. I've been to Dimension before, but after they told us that 10tacle was making driver instead of reflections we decided they weren't a really valuable source of info. So I'd say that it might be true.

well thats negative
i hope its ridable, and not alone, there should be a huge line to make your way through (one way or another) and then you'd be on with a ton of people :p

Actually its an police detector meter. It flashes more and more when the cops get closer and stays flashes if you got a tail.

It was my way of disagreeing. Sorry if I sounded mean.

Yeah it would be fun to do and maybe it should be featured as a mini game for dpl because dpl is all about driving and you can drive a rollercoaster so it would be better if it was a mini game.

Untill you get hit by the train or you hit the train.

Here's my photoshop of what the screen will look like. The police detector is the pink around the speedometer.

So you've seen the real HUD?

I don't mean to go OT, but pirjay, what IS your avatar of? It almost looks like a jellyfish to me.

Looks like an x-ray of a pelvis to me

I doubt there will be rideable roller coasters, ever since Driver 2, when you could get out of the car (and you'd expect there be something to do out of car), the games have felt somewhat empty, as if theres nothing to do, and it gets worse everytime. Hopefully PL will fix this. Ridable roller coasters would be cool, at first, but then I probably wouldn't bother riding them again, it would be fun to drive on them though, like one of the mini games on Stuntman in the arena, it had roller coaster tracks (kind of, they were built out of ramps) that you had to do laps around, it was so hard.

I don't see why ridable roller coasters would be a bad idea, gives you something to do out of car, since they're downgrading this section this time.

It's a picture I took and photoshopped. Originally, it was smoke. I think it looks like some kind of broccoli ghost. LOL, I'm special.

Yeah you're right and maybe it should be this one minigame where you can be the ticket person that collects the tickets for any roller coasters and it would be better if you were able to drive one like in take a ride mode and there could be a minigame on it too. And if San Andreas had a hover ride in the game then I don't see why there shouldn't be a cheat or even a way to unlock a roller coaster to drive around in. It would be pretty fun if they did something like this.

I thought you meant to drive the roller coaster on the tracks, but that would be cool to run from the cops in a roller coaster

I suppose it would be a great idea too if they did something like that for the game.
