I didn't know it was possible for a ride to look as out of place as Storm Surge... It really sticks out like a sore thumb. I also really don't think this is the right coaster for this park. This park is heavily themed and intracitely designed - this roller coaster seems the opposite (obviously it's hard to add theming to a coaster as tall and short as this). I feel like a really impressively tall B&M flyer with a theme that is more theatrical and imaginative than ferrari, would suit this park perfectly.

I agree entirely - it's both annoying and completely unnecessary.
-
It genuinely does seem like it!
-
Well, to be honest, I thought that the staff were dressing up as Derren Brown! We all know how much he loves to rock the flat cap and braces look...
-
My excitement is finally building. Surely actors would only appear in themed uniforms with opening imminent?
-
Well, having an opinion on something that you have actually seen in the flesh is very different to having an opinion on something that you've never seen before. I cant stress how important wording is on forums. For example, you said 'Universal is overrated' as opposed to 'Universal seems/looks overrated.' The latter clearly explains that it is based on POVs/ images/reviews rather than personal experience.

Jupiter is the worst planet ever. I've never been there but I've seen some POV's and it looks way overrated...
-
Whilst I agree that this will probably themed to Mutiny Bay, we don't know that for a fact. Even though the entrance is in Mutiny Bay, it could still be Katanga Canyon themed, or it could be part of a whole new land with absolutely no relevence to pirates.
-
June the 17th is my guess for opening... 2016, that is.
-
If that was true, DBGT would be themed to Nitrogenie!
-
Having 3 of the big five down is really not great for the park.
-
Guys, the reason that DBGT isn't opening on time is due to Merlin exhausting their budget on Tim's personalised headset...

Food loop. Everything is better in Germany. Six flags Batman: the ride clones, or Six Flags Superman: Ultimate flight clones?
-
I love Nemesis Inferno's. It's catchy, yet not annoying and the atmosphere it creates as you enter the station is amazing.
-
The Smiler's bores the poo out of me - being in a 3 hour queue with that in the background is the worst.

2017 - new refurbished next gem Intamin log flume (replacing Loggers) 2018 - RMC in the old town, with near misses with Loggers and lots of interaction. 2019 - lost city enhancements. Colossus repaint and new trains (those on altair). Also, retheme of X, with a new exterior making it look like a proper pyramid and just make it more Aztec like. 2020 - major Rumba refurbishment and an air race replacing samurai 2021 - Mack multi launch using terrain on the island behind the swarm with a Japanese myth theme and new zamperla disk o in this area.

How are they measuring the intensity of the 'world's most intense LSM launch'? G force?
-
I genuinely find Saw more rough than Colossus. In my opinion, Colossus is the superior of the 2.
-
Mars sky diving or Bungee jumping?

Join the club, it's just a sandwich isn't it? Another confession: I find Stealth boring. I used to be like you miles, very excited, nervous and those lights going from red to green would petrify me - this was why I used to love it so much. For 3 years is was my favourite coaster, but one day in May, I rode it thrice, and I was with friends who didn't appreciate Stealth. We kind of got on it without realising and it no longer gave me that thrill and excitement. After 30 rides, it doesn't fulfill my need for thrills anymore.

You don't really notice the corpse too much. It's those axes and the spikes board beneath it that give me the creeps. To be honest, I don't really like horror as a theme for rides. Dark themes are fine, but Horror just isn't for me. I will ride DBGT though.
-
Cedar Fair. Those gigas! Liseberg or Phantasialand?
-
True. Though I haven't ridden any 4d coasters, I don't think they're up to much. Are the S&S and Arrow 4Ds better than the Intamin ones?
-
I'm not suggesting that you sugar coat your criticisms, I'm suggesting that you turn you criticisms into constructive ones - so, Thorpe can improve. I also agree that the prices are "way to high", but if that is the case then saying "these prices are way to high, if they lowered them the park wouldn't find that they would have happier customers and therefore an increase in business" could be seen as more helpful. I'm sorry if I'm being really patronising here by the way!

Not forgetting the Zacspin.
