  1. Stealth, let me give you a diaper and call you baby, cause you're about to be dwarfed by this BEAST of a coaster!
  2. I too am disabled, not in the sense I need a wheelchair, its more a learning disability. But I can safely say Thorpe won't be a good park if they haven't got access for the disabled. Seriously, exclusion is among the worst sins someone could committ. Everyone wants to ride Thorpe's rides, it wouldn't be fair for the disabled if there were no access. And furthermore, I'm certain the public won't like it either. Thorpe will lose popularity and thus visitors.
  3. I mightn't be going, but I bet it'll be some old rusty vehicle Thorpe picked up at the scrapyard, got it all cleaned up and rigged it with dynamite!
  4. Another rainy day in Ireland. Old news, says I

  5. Holy **** this looks intense! Can't wait until it opens. And now, is there anything left, I ask?
  6. Guys, I'm not joking. Can someone get me a list of Thorpe Park CS? Thx
  7. Ok gentlemen, I have a Screaming Swing and some custom scenery. If someone can pass me a list of CS for a Thorpe recreation that would be great.
  8. From what I can tell, Thorpe are really focusing hard on this. We might not be getting any explicit detail about the coaster, but that is probably because the end is only a few months away. As the time draws near, I'm sure Thorpe will produce bigger, better and more revealing information about The Swarm. For now, all we can do is wait for the year to pass.
  9. The Swarm-Must..........ride..........at...........all..............costs!!!

  10. OMG The video kicks soooooooooooo much ass! Thorpe, you'd better not be lying about that 127ft drop, with that particular element and a whole lotta other good stuff this ride has the potential to rake in trillions of visitors a day!
  11. And yes, a visual reveals the coaster train to be a Wingrider. Thorpe has truly held up its end of the deal.
  12. Gentlemen, upon refreshing the countdown site, the ride's name is revealed to be..............THE SWARM
  13. THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!!! 2 MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!Time is up! Ok Thorpe, lets see what u got!
  14. 5 minutes!!!!!!!!! C'mon LC12! Show us who you realy are!
  15. Same reason why I wouldn't pick war as the name. Maybe something like Impending Doom would do it justice.
  16. Thorpe set out to make their coasters fast, furious and almost-deadly. This goal overcame what they wanted SAW to be; a perfect immortalization of the franchise in one epic rollercoaster. Sadly it revealed itself as nothing more than a simple addition to Thorpe's ever-growing collection of coasters. This LC12 better be worth the quid I pay to fly over and go there. If Thorpe belly-flops this, I simply cannot look at it as The Nation's Thrill Capital anymore.
  17. Queueline benches for sure. Last time I queued for SAW the line was massive, it took a huge while before I could sit in the car. By then me walkers were stinging hard.As for theming, well, Thorpe wanted to theme the station around Jigsaw's hideout, they got it horribly wrong, seeing as his hideout was a meat packaging factory, not some old rusty warehouse. And they also thought his hideout would have to be full of traps visible to all who entered. Again, wrong. Jigsaw wouldn't want the police getting their hands on his traps (evidence for his crimes) that he sees as therapy lessons that make life's losers appreciate their lives more than wasting them on drugs or other **** like that. Now SAW Alive, it focuses more on scaring riders ****less rather than showcasing the traps and hoping the riders would be afraid of them. The ride itself had nothing to do with SAW, other than the fact it was to be treated as one of Jigsaw's newest games.
  18. 15 hours to go! Can't wait to see what happens. But for the love of the Flying Fish, don't call the ride WAR. Its just too obvious. Think about it, I walk onsite, I look around and I say "OMG What happened here?!" Then I see the sign (moments after I already guessed what happened) and I go "Of course! Its sooooooooo obvious! I mean c'mon, I knew this well before hand! Message to Mike Vallis: give your next ride a less obvious theme related name."I'd take Cataclysm or Apocalypse, either one would fit, but not WAR.
  19. I've been looking through countless sites to see if there was anything linking LC12 to Gears Of War. I'll tell you though, the font on the WAR in the video and game logo look the same. My honest opinion? Thorpe is getting a Gears Of War ride.
  20. It took me a LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG while, but now I am back, and glad to hear Thorpe's getting a new ride, and post apocalyptic too! I hope this doesn't turn out like SAW, that ride was clearly not scary! (In my opinion at least)Aside from all that, did anyone hear anything else on LC12?
  21. You don't seem to understand too well. I meant for Storm Surge plans to be scrapped around 2009/10. And then comes the Looping Coaster
  22. Another problem is that every file I download ends up compressed and this seriously affects my game. Where can Ii download uncompressed files? BTW I have all the Worx downloaded, but they're not showing in the game. Do I have to install or activate them or something?
  23. 2006-Partnership with Lionsgate does not work out2007-Project Dylan changed, SAW The Ride extinct. Replaced with Wooden Coaster named: Calgary Wooden Wildride2008-Deal struck with current owner of Thorpe Farm, becomes part of Island C reserved for 2012 B&M Wingrider2009-Thorpe Belle revamped into new horror maze: Aliens. (not the movie) Themed to show a UFO has crashed into the S.S. Anne, with its alien passengers waging a war for survival against human military forces.2010-Not much, other than a new paintjob to Colossus, keeping the original paint scheme. Also a bit more Mayan theming.2011-Storm Surge scrapped. New ride proposed for construction. Type: A Looping Coaster. Name: Xplosion. A hotel is also proposed for construction.2012-B&M Wingrider named: Chaos Theory is built on Island C. Underground railway also built to transport visitors to different areas of park.2013-Stealth transformed into a dueling coaster, renamed "Speedway". Extra theming including sponsor banners like "Dunlop" and "Yorkie" are tied to rails along the launch tracks. Queueline retraced to link both stations. Entire track revamped into a racecourse weaving through the track of Chaos Theory.Thats about it from me.
  24. Yeah, if this is something no one's ever attempted before then sweet. So, are any of yous gonna help me or not? I have Port Atlantis finished and now I'm working on Lost City. I have Quantum, Vortex and Zodiac up, I simply need Rush, and the type of queueline and fencing for each ride.
  25. problem is I'm going it without custom scenery. Is that bad?
