  1. They are testing the turntable not the train.
  2. Theme Park Worldwide trip updates and blogs made you feel like you were on the trip with them where, I lost interest in following Coaster Studio's trip very quickly.
  3. The taxi train is currently sitting on the inclined turntable. Vekoma building ZigZag test-construction @ Vlodrop | Page 2 | FORUMS - COASTERFORCE
  4. @GazzaThe first launch is 😴 even a bit of theming would give you something to look at instead of seeing back of house stuff.
  5. Thank you for contributing and your thrilling use of words. We are all better people for it.
  6. I think even switching up a couple of rides each market could work. At the very least what would it really cost DW to try it and see if it takes off? I would definitely not run ST at the markets because the big ticket rides you want to draw the people in during normal DW operation.
  7. Council not too keen on outside entertainment continuing to 2am, so there is a bit of back and forth happening to address councils' concerns. Council has asked for more information and updated reports on parking, flooding, noise & visual impacts. (Nothing out of the norm)
  8. It still doesn't make sense why you would spend money to install a new ride for the markets, when DW already have rides they could open up.
  9. Don't know, don't care. One day DW will open up tour group bookings again and what DW offer the tours is up to DW.
  10. The last time I went to the Billabong Restaurant 90% of the customers were Asian tourist groups. I would think the restaurant would reopen when the tourist groups come back. I also believe the sheep show closed because the tourist groups stopped.
  11. We have been friends for 16 years and I still have to give you /s 😢 I agree, you don't have to put an IP on everything and MD & HW are great examples of pointless IPs and IPs done badly. As it stands with DW, the only real theming DW have gotten 100% right (say, in the last 15 years) is Tiger Island & DreamWorks. When DW changed to DreamWorks you could be confident DreamWorks would not let DW do a mediocre job. DreamWorks would never allow a paint over. I also believe it is easier to pull of a Minecraft or DreamWorks area over a K & B Land. If I asked everybody in Parkz to design a Minecraft area, a lot of us would all come back with similar designs. A solid IP design themselves and people will blindly go DW just because it has a Minecraft without even knowing what’s in it. (Minecraft just example of strong IP, don’t shoot me people) Fuck, I told my daughter I’ll take her to the Mario movie and I haven’t seen one trailer. It might not even be age appropriate and I might have to walk out half way through the movie but I don’t care. Anyway, just thoughts, that I say out loud. When I talk about the parks, I do it from a guest perspective because that is what I am. I have no interest in ever working in a park but when I walk through the gates, I know what I want.
  12. Dreamworld didn't open with any roller coasters, it doesn't need roller coasters.
  13. If only DW had your number @Gazza Pushing Ocean Parade down to SS doesn't make one bit of sense.
  14. A train that looks like a crazy taxi train, is now on the test track. (yellow train) https://coasterforce.com/forums/attachments/7c7snhe-1-jpg.23016/
  15. Sorry @DaptoFunlandGuyI was talking more about the doing the area right, with or without an IP. As I said early, Ocean Parade is now going to have Chinese buildings in it.
  16. The only area DW has a chance in beating MW, so you need to do it right.
  17. You know moody isn't the opposite of being positive? @Guest 239DW's history after Longhurst is all about, DW losing money - cash injection - flipped. Unless somebody comes up with a real plan for DW, instead of thinking adding a couple of rides will fix DW each time, the will cycle will continue.
  18. This whole discussion started because people were being overly positive (in my eyes) on DW's future. I gave a list of negative things on why it's not all rainbows and lollypops which makes me unsure of DW's future. People, as they do around here, picked out one or two items, which took the discussion to somewhere else. To answer your question, yes it makes sense DW went cheap on the re-theme and didn't pick up a new IP, if DW are still looking to sell. Which backs up my thoughts from the original post, that I am unsure of DW's future.
  19. Who cares, it's a rebute to the gotcha question. Loads of games which kids can't get enough of DW could use. Fortnite, Animal Crossing, Pokémon all examples.
  20. Queensland Globe it better than Google Earth for QLD mapping and it's free. Queensland Globe (information.qld.gov.au) And if you click bottom right as shown. You can get some good old images.
  21. People should stop thinking within the box. What is one of the biggest money makers? Computer Games. Top of my head. Minecraft.
