Fix The Merry-Go-Round, DAMMIT !!
« on: October 24, 2011, 01:44:23 AM »
OK, here we go with another favorite gripe of mine.....The permanently busted Merry-Go-Round (also known as a 'Carousel') is mocking me, AGAIN, each and every time I go to the Carnival.

What gives ?  Didn't the creators of Bully know just how fun it would be to push kids off the Merry-Go-Round, or drag them off the little wooden horsies and beat them ?  Or just to ride the thing while shooting Spuds at random folk walking by at the Carnival ?

This really Grinds My Gears, which by the way I would be doing if Jimmy were allowed to run the thing for some extra $$$.  The whole first time I played the game, I was expecting the damn thing to be 'Fixed' (read, 'Unlocked'), but NOOOOOO ! 

Should be a reward for like reaching 100%, something I have done MORE THAN ONCE, since the only thing one gets for that is NOTHING AT ALL !!

Msot likely if it were fixed it would function just like the other rides. You can't interact with students on the other rides, so I'm thinking that fixing it would be a waste of time. However, it would add some realism...

Pretty much... though I can see Chuck's disappointment being able to hit people from an unbustable Merry-Go-Round :P.

I mean, what's the point in having the thing there, anyway ?  All it turned out to be is one big fat FAIL.

Recall how the New Coventry underpass is blocked, and the Blue Skies bridge is blocked....Ostensibly due to 'Construction'......Are 'unlocked' when you hit the chapter points.  Expected the same for this stupid Merry-Go-Round.  And since there is no 'entrance' for it (like the other 3 rides & the Go-Karts), expected it would be sort of like a 'free roam' thing, yah know ?  Even if it was never operable, would have been fun to get on it and maybe a good hiding spot, or hop on top of one of the horsies for a no-bust place (which that part of the Carnival sorely needs).

This thing MOCKS me every time I go there.  MOCKS !!!!

Well, most of the students and townsfolk often mention how big of a dump is Bullworth, and I guess that the broken carousel was made to make things more dumpish?  :confused:

Good point... It certainly does make the place seem slightly less glorified.

You know, there are animations for this ride (for the peds and the ride itself). But getting it working again...will need a lot of work.

That's pretty cool. There seems so much stuff that didn't make it in the game.

Is it like an iceberg? From a thing so big only a small part made it on the surface?

Precisely.
