  13. Thorpe Park Blows It Up

    My review of thorpe park blows it up lets start by saying my bag got stolen with all me camera stuff in it so no more videos for 392. When I got to the park there was a power cut so had to wait 30 mins to get my pre paid tickets stealth wasn't working I went on the train for the last time and a member of staff got there wallet stolen so not a bad day could have been better.

    Really? We didn't have any problems at all, apart from seeing some n00bs standing up on Storm Surge on the final turn, splashing people at the squirty guns, totally ignoring the staff's desperate shouts to sit down!Theming was dire, espesh as it's an anniversary. Some barrels? Wow. I didn't even see any nooses! Music is all over the place, some rides playing normal audio (Inferno, Storm Surge) some playing FN audio. Some rides have new audio but it's NOT an improvement! Vortex apparently has Th13teen music, well whatever it is, the old theme was miles better and more atmospheric. Same goes for Samurai, ridiculous repetitive dance thing playing. It's not a funfair! Again, the old music was much better!Don't know what actual music Stealth had but at the entrance had the Asylum sirens blaring out. Speaking of recycling the Asylum audio, the queue music was playing in Canada Creek and Ranger County (apart from the day where they both played the awful new Loggers track list!). As for the other rides, no idea what they played, which says to me they can't have been that great or atmospheric as I would've noticed them. Apart from Rush, which still has the same audio ^_^ Didn't see any roaming actors but some staff had make-up on, as they get free face painting in the canteen. I suppose the only good thing was the lighting. Samurai had a nice change with green lighting instead of blue. But seeing as lights are essential, do they really count? :PLittle things like smoke machines would've really made a difference. Someone on here said Vortex had a smoke machine, well not yesterday! Would loved to have seen it as it's something I really wanted when I worked there! Sources have told us that towards the end of Fright Nights, more theming etc will be added. Right. So we now have to choose between a nice quiet park (like yesterday) with no atmosphere, or a horribly cramped park with atmosphere? Hmm. I know it's because of the FN days atm just being weekends but surely things like smoke machines can easily be removed/put back? And it doesn't explain the lack of roaming actors either! If they were there last weekend, why not the weekend just gone?However the park being quiet, we had a great rid count and spent it with lovely people ^_^ I shall post a trip report soon, which should be more positive than this post!

    I went yesterday and the theming is getting less I'm going again this weekend so ill se if theres more added. I agree with Samurai starts good then it play some dance track it would sound better at the fireworks thing and Storm Surge squirty guns get you wet so why not stand up and block yourself from not getting wet. Did you go with one other person coz maybe I saw you.
