Just noticed now but doomsday destroyed has been removed from park map in app as an attraction completely. Still shows on the map but no name or icon

A shame they don't have it operating until they knew what to do with the area. Like that would've been nice to help alleviate some of the stress on the other ride lines

It was very unreliable and was costing the park a lot to keep it running because of all of the work it needed

The ride was only unreliable because it was being run out of spec. It was essentially run into the ground due to “modifications”. 
The ride just needs an overhaul to return it back to opening day condition, which the bean counters said no to.

It is, but it’s been happening for decades. It’s probably easier to list the rides that closed that they announced would be retiring, but here’s a list of what I can think of that has closed without notice:

Looney Tunes River Ride

Arkham Asylum/Lethal Weapon

Batman Adventure: The Ride

Bermuda Triangle

Sea Viper/Corkscrew

Pirate Ship

SkyHigh Skyway

Sea World Train

Monorail

Mach 5

Aqualoop

I agree, it is total bullshit that they would treat their assets and customers like that, but here we are..

To be fair Mach 5, LTRR & Batman all had contracts for their replacements signed when they closed. They of course varied in quality but at least they were there.

Cant say much about the others which have either taken years to get off the ground or still sit as empty plots.

To be fair, they were still closed 'without notice' which is the issue people have - not getting a chance to ride one last time, etc etc.

The park knew they were going to remove it and instead of announcing it and giving people the opportunity to 'say goodbye', to give fans of the attraction a little 'send off'...

They Kingda Ka'd it.
