February 23, 20169 yr comment_228457 I would have also thought that HTC would have been involved as they headsets are obviously not going to be the same as the public pre-order ones. I would guess that they are custom builds. What also might be interesting is if HTC are heavily involved then maybe there will be other specialnesses to these machines. We also may see HTC using it as a launch vector when the Vives are released too. Which would be more advertising for the ride, which is definitely a good thing.
February 23, 20169 yr comment_228460 How is that any different from say B&M building their first ever dive coaster though? The hardware may look the same but there's a whole world of unseen untested software running every new ride. If anything they'll be less likely to fail, they've had almost 2 years of beta testing to get it right.
February 23, 20169 yr comment_228474 Buy a headset in the giftshop? And lug it around the whole park for the rest of the day!
February 23, 20169 yr comment_228475 If you are a Premium MAP they will store your over priced headset for you until the end of the day (£5 for standard pass holders). Oh and bags cost 5p.
February 24, 20169 yr comment_228481 And lug it around the whole park for the rest of the day! What's wrong with that. It would be no bigger than say a shoebox I would assume. People lug giant teddy's around the park all day.
February 24, 20169 yr comment_228486 Surely you'd be a target for thieves if you're seen buying one or carrying it/storing in ride lockers?
February 24, 20169 yr comment_228489 At about £580 a headset, I can't see Thorpe selling them at the park to be honest...
February 24, 20169 yr comment_228503 At about £580 a headset, I can't see Thorpe selling them at the park to be honest... Still not as expensive as a ride photo. haha

February 25, 20169 yr comment_228513 Someone photoshop Derren's face onto Mark's! Yeah I know these are Oculi, but hey - 1984 is real, Derren and Mark are the overlords of the earth. Ziltoid will probably come looking for coffee soon.
February 25, 20169 yr comment_228526 Do you mean marks face on Derrens? Done. I also got rid of those annoying dolls
February 25, 20169 yr comment_228530 Yeah let's hope it's really intense as that appeals to the mass family market. I have very low expectations for this and throughout the construction they have been getting lower.
February 25, 20169 yr comment_228532 Is it just me or did some posts I saw earlier go walkabouts? Glad they did as they were very spoilerific! Didn't look at them for too long to save me from spoilers!
February 25, 20169 yr comment_228533 Is it just me or did some posts I saw earlier go walkabouts? Glad they did as they were very spoilerific! Didn't look at them for too long to save me from spoilers! South Parks posted the images however Thorpe Park found them and requested them to be removed as they want to keep it top secret.
February 25, 20169 yr comment_228534 South Parks posted the images however Thorpe Park found them and requested them to be removed as they want to keep it top secret.What did those pictures have in them exactly? And they must be exciting if Thorpe wanted to remove them.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 25, 20169 yr comment_228536 It contained 4 pictures of what the vr would look like as well as 4 pictures of construction updates. The queue looked complete now with plants around the area. It also showed us the inside of the warehouse with the train carriage.

February 25, 20169 yr comment_228543 The pictures were removed following a request from Thorpe Park I believe. Whilst we can't stop people sharing them between friends, we (TPM) ask that you don't post them on the forums, or elsewhere online. Many thanks.
February 25, 20169 yr comment_228546 I don't understand why they put these pictures online if they don't want people to find them? Surely they would have known better after last time?
