Casino interior needs a facelift to reflect lobby 3

Back in Lobby 2, the entrace to the casino looked like this

And the interior has two corresponding doors to match

However, now this is no longer the case, as the entrance is wildly different while the interior remains the same.

More personally, I always felt that the casino needed a grander reception area, like a statue or fountain something. Having a wider, circular entrance would be great for that.

I agree but I also believe that it should come with the Casino 2.0

I feel like that’s pretty far off, whereas the changes to the plaza are being made right now in a pretty big way.

I don’t think the Casino layout is going to get a facelift.

In Lobby 3, Johanna went through and reworked the lighting and the topology of a lot of the Casino models from Lobby 2’s interior.

That’s a shame because I agree that the discrepancy between the doors is really jarring. I’ve been hoping that it’d be updated.

ditto

While a change to the layout would be nice, I was more suggesting that just the interior entryway match the new exteriors architecture, rather than an update of the casino’s whole floorplan. Would that still be unfeasible?

I personally think the floorplan isn’t amazing and it feels very boxy but hey as long as it works. Also the design itself just feels kinda outdated and old when compared to other areas with reworks such as the majority of the plaza but also things like the casino.

I don’t think a casino facelift should be high on the priorities list however I think it’s still something that should be done to better match how great Lobby 3 looks. But considering Johanna has reworked the lighting and such of the Casino models, That’s good already.

I think a new floor plan for the casino to reflect the new exterior would be nice, but given the size of the team and the tasks set for them already, it should be something to take care of much later in development.

I both agree and disagree. The Lobby 2 interior of the casino seems exceptionally sparse and doesn’t really fit the exterior all that well. My suggestion would be to maybe go back later and maybe refresh it some when you guys finish up this latest mountain of tasks. I realize its not possible now because you’ve got TU’s biggest update ever coming into play here (and why its not reffered to as 0.8.0.0 is beyond me but I suppose there’s other reasons.)
