Adventure World New Coaster - Abyss

The shed could always be just maintenance and queueing couldn't it? -
Yeah that happened to me once but the other time it never went the whole way over after the original direction. Just found it wierd.

Have you guys ridden Pandamonium enough times to know the cycle? I've ridden around 20 times and the other day I had a couple of rather unusual rides where the arm seemed to make a clicking noise and the ride never started 'rolling' in the opposite direction. So of my 20 or so rides this has happened twice on the same day. Anyone else found this?

Walk through scare maze Coming to Dreamworld
downunder196 replied to Gary86's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Not a soft drink person, and I'm not paying $9 for just a burger. Yes, that's what they charge for a burger on it's own... And, how do we know this isn't DW preparing a Halloween event to rival the Fright Nights at MW? Could be a special Screamworld with characters walking around scaring people? Just throwing it out there. -

AND THEY CHARGE AN EXTRA DOLLAR FOR A BOTTLE OF WATER :angry2: -
Is it just me or does each slide have one section with lines around it in the helix?

On that topic has anyone noticed how MW is lightyears ahead of DW in food and drink? I suppose SW and WNW match MW... their range of food is amazing compared to DW. -
And the green piece on the left... At least it will be colourful I guess, or can it become too colourful?
-
I like the look of those slides in the middle picture. The red ones look like you'd get decent speed and the blue one looks like possible air time!
-
Has anyone seen DW now have the Q4U on mobile? There are QR codes at different rides to find out how to do it, couldn't get a pic though. Also, the 1st row of the 2nd carriage of Buzzsaw was open again today which is good to see. It is also the first time I have seen the eastern side of the Giant Drop open too.

I got the app yesterday and it looks pretty good. I like the fact that you can now use it as your season pass. I was at WBMW on Monday and I saw all the signs up to scan for your ride count but I couldn't find the app. Wish it had of come out a few days earlier!

Sea World Storm Coaster construction 2013

Theme Park Review have some great povs of most of the roller coasters in Australia. They even got video on Scooby Doo with the lights on. EDIT: Slick beat me to it -
For 2014, top 14 new rides at theme parks around the world Number 10 on the list... has anyone heard/seen anything on this? I assume it must be something to do with the empty lot of land I showed in the first post. For anyone not wanting to open the link this is what it says:

Although this means removing the cinema, I think a great idea to replace the building is a ride which uses the same system as Soarin' Over California at DCA and EPCOT. I believe Vekoma make an 'I-Glide' or something like that. Isn't the most expensive thing and I think it would bring huge crowds. Great for tourists too if they want to 'soar' over Aussie landmarks. The only danger with this idea though is that Dreamworld could go cheap with the footage on the screen and the what the chairs do. But if they can pull it off it would be a massive hit. The added bonus too is that they can change out the footage and essentially create a new ride experience for a relatively cheap price.

Change is here! I have decided to ditch what I have done so far and start over. Except this time I will post updates showing all my progress so you guys can give me feedback. I have visited the park many times and know it very well, but it's always good to hear others opinions! The first update will come later today. EDIT: UPDATE #1 So far there isn't too much to show but I have the entrance building and have began on the surrounds. Hope you enjoy! Overview of the entrance and the beginnings of the car park. Park entrance building. Screamworld possibilities? Last picture for today, the main entrance is done but the facade still has to be completed around at the exit. All feedback (good and bad) is welcome and will be taken on board!
-
He does it a lot...
-
I know these pictures don't reveal much but any feedback, good or bad, is welcome! Hope you enjoy
-
This is why I'm getting keen for TPS! I got my Platinum Edition and Beta Testing paid for
-
NightRider anyone?
-
Thanks Randy!
-
I have the World Pass Gates but I think I'll just finish DW and if my computer copes fine then I'll build WWW afterwards. So far no issues, fingers crossed it stays that way! Yeah I won't be making a CFR so I'll have to settle with another spinning ride. It is also a CFR and it'll have to do... for now. I will also run into the same troubles for the Giant Drop.
-
I was wondering if anyone had any track lists for the music they play at WBMW & DW. I know the obvious songs (Wiggles in Wiggles World, Wild Wild West in Wild West Falls etc) but I was meaning the general music played throughout main street of both parks.
-
Thoughts? Also, would you guys like to see White Water World too? I can make both, except it'll take longer
-
For now I will post a picture every day or so to show progress. When it is eventually (hopefully) fully done I will post it like a story. So far I'm only posting it here so in the future I will aim to make it into a story Also, glad you like it!
