Not sure where to post this but..Did anyone else notice them doing landscaping/infilling in the spot for the 2015 coaster behind rumba rapids already?

Went on The Swarm 3 times today! Got to ride both sides on the front seats and also 3rd row on the left..My incredibly positive review -Wow.. The ride is incredible..Unlike Saw: The Ride, a 70 minute queue doesn't actually feel that long & the sound effects (up the stairs, when the train passes over) are amazing!!I don't know what all that was about 'shake' or whatever? I found it perfectly smooth every ride(although on the 3rd ride the rain was incredibly painful so I didn't notice much else)Also for me, the left side is more intense, especially during the incline loop.The themeing is A* compared to anything I've seen at Thorpe in the past or even at Alton Towers (IMO) The detail is just fantastic from the cracks in the concrete walls to the burnt trees and the bits of glass still in the church window.Also, I don't see how the white tent (forgot the name of the building) affects The Swarm's theming? To me, it fit in fine with all that moss and dirt etc on the roof & it's not like it's actually on The Swarm's island.I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this ride or it's area, I'm amazed! The only thing I'm disappointed about is that the fire effect wasn't on (but c'mon, we have to leave at least a small trace of typical Thorpe-iness in there )EDIT: That's really cool

It may not have been busy todaybut when Saturday comes..

Look how impressive it looks! It completely dominates the view over Stealth

Oh my

Wow, thanks for writing that! I'm crazy excited now

That smoking fire truck! :wub:Getting all emotional

I really hope that video is the TV add, similar to the way they showed the Thirteen adverts with the little girl.Although, it doesn't show the ride They could add it in to make it a 30 second add

Wow that advert is incredible!

It looks so fan-made

Great So excited for this now.

Is this true?

The Swarm

Posted on Thorpe's website They also posted pictures with them on the ride

Going under that wing on the left side will be terrifying

I meant if they were ever to remove it, they could always move it there instead because IMO it's their best kids ride.I know they most likely wouldn't anyway because it's a waste of money but.. It would look a lot better coming over the lifthill to see a simialrly themed ride instead of a flying fish

That spider-ish looking building is awesome :wub:Reminds me of war of the worlds & those machines in the incredibles

I just had an idea, I'm surprised they haven't planned a removal/movement of flying fish considering how close it is to The Swarm and how they could potential put a similarly themed ride there.They could always move it here?

Candles by the end of the week

I want The Swarm snow pics please

In this picture from the MTDPIt states that the dotted pink line is the 'development zone'does this mean that with a lot of persuading the government,Thorpe Park could potentially infill more land in the area of lake between Saw: Alive & Vortex?

Oh..

Haha! Oh the contrast between the swarm & joyful Neptune's beach.Wouldn't be surprised to see another destroyed-type themed ride over there in the future.+ YES FIRE!

Wow

Ah okay, thanks
