Tower of Terror 2 closing
Gold Coast Amusement Force replied to Gold Coast Amusement Force's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I think they are only expressing their opinion but it is perceived as being a factual statement. The only source we have to say that Tower of Terror is staying and going through a refurbishment is @Evie. -

I kinda suspected that was the case. Hoping my interpretation of that emoji is correct. -
What else could be coming to dreamworld?
Gold Coast Amusement Force replied to Mc coaster's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I hope it’s a new family water slide for White Water World similar to the mammoth falls. Or I would love another roller coaster to keep their thrill ride game strong but probably over budget. -

Is it possible that Tower of Terror might be getting it’s ride system upgraded? They didn’t take up the upgrade that the six flags version received, but would it be possible that it’s now receiving the same treatment. Or would it be too late for this to happen? -

Gold Coast Amusement Force replied to Tim Dasco's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I believe wet n wild should follow white water world in repainting majority of their slides. Here’s some photos I took today. The aqua loop especially looks terrible. -

They are locked open, than the first room I wouldn’t know how that would be set up if the queue reached their. Than entering the second queue it snakes around the screen as seen in the above picture. You than get assigned a level. -

The train only has two carriages attached at Dreamworld, one of which is not completely seating. -

The ride itself is amazing but it’s such a hard concept to market especially as a first of it’s kind ride in Australia. Dreamworld know this and that’s most likely why they have used guests recounting their experience because it is explained in a basic and understandable way for other guests instead of being explained in a harder to grasp way by professionals of the industry. Good move by Dreamworld here. -
List some of the rides or attractions you think need to be refresehd. Personally, I would say; MDMC - photos from 31 August 2019 At first impression, it is obvious the ride needs a repaint. It's faded, dirty and makes the ride look beaten up and old when it is one of Dreamworld's newest rides despite opening around 12 years ago. The ride is a family favourite and their is no reason it shouldn't be cleaned up. As you can see in the bottom left of this picture, their are two water tanks in the middle of the ride which makes you feel like Dreamworld don't care about the experience of MDMC which is rather well done elsewhere. You can also see the track is in need of a repaint. Better view of the water tanks. The whole ride area feels neglected. The launch system needs to be accessed by maintenance but they have a tendancies to just leave shit everywhere. In this one picture, you can view the ladder they leave at the ride. This photo was from 2010 and the ladder remains in 2019. It's plain ugly and shouldn't be sitting in view of everyone. In comparison, Jet Rescue has wonderful landscaping that makes the ride look much better than MDMC. You can see both launch systems technical components aren't viewable by guests and thats the way it should be done. It isn't something that is a massive problem but it's big enough to pay attention too. With a cleanup, repaint and modifications to the current landscape of the ride including the removal of the water tanks e.t.c, the ride experience could be improved drastically and be more immersive.

Don’t forget that they said Dreamworld wasn’t seen as completion anymore because their offerings are incomparably stronger... -

I’m not sure if this will be persistent through the whole ABC Kids World but the area where the seating is has a fresh coat of paint. It also seemed that other insignificant spots towards the entrance near MDMC had also been painted. Please appreciate the provided photo below as I was asked by security why I was taking weird photos.. Than again, I guess it is odd.
