April 15, 20169 yr comment_232420 I thought the preview was confirmed as cancelled a few pages back? I wasn't paying attention though as I don't have a MAP. Thorpe's replies regarding the matter have been confusing. They've said there's no "preview day", but they have also said there will be some form of Annual Pass event (which they originally called a rehearsal day). So who knows?
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232424 Ahhh the soundtrack is amazing! Praise IMAscore [emoji1376][emoji1376][emoji106][emoji106][emoji108][emoji108][emoji317][emoji317] Would love just a little more though that isn't clearly edited at points [emoji5]
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232426 The MAP still mentions the rehearsal day on it.. As did the MAP facebook page a few weeks back too... So I'm assuming that this is similar to the Galactica rehearsal they did?
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232427 I love this soundtrack. I personally love the section which was used for the trailer of to ride (not the one with Derren speaking).
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232440 perhaps they mean no soft openings? I don't think were gonna say any soft openings with that train still outside and exposed to the elements. I expect that will have to do X amount of loops around the ride before its signed off
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232444 Does anyone else think the marketing for this has gone a bit quiet? I know they released the soundtrack today but in terms of building up the opening of the Ghost Train, wouldn't they usually be advertising a new ride a lot more via social media etc by now?
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232446 They're probably waiting until they know for certain it will open on time.
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232447 If I doesn't open on time, we won't know until the morning of the 6th when there's a sign outside Thorpe's entrance... But of course, I'm remaining fully optimistic that it shall indeed open on time!
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232451 the part on the soundtrack starting at around 2:30 has got studio 13 written all over it. I know the studio 13 music was actually from the MBV film, but still
April 15, 20169 yr comment_232453 I haven't seen anything... ...however, I have seen this... What's a social edit? The edit for social media? But what makes it different to the original. The start sounds Colossus esk. The middle has an alien sounding theme tune.( I forget the piece of music?!) It sounds great. #IMAScore for fright nights 2016

April 16, 20169 yr comment_232471 Earlier today on twitter, Thorpe replied upon queries on a preview event and they confirmed it was on the 4th, with tickets still to be released.
April 16, 20169 yr comment_232486 I'm glad that building is looking top notch in regards to theming, but I'm not to keen on how they are adding all these posters which for me, ruins the visual understanding that the building is abandoned. I enjoyed the somewhat Victorian appearance of the depot, but I would have preferred if they added these posters inside the building where they cannot be seen from the outside. Regardless, its looking good so far. Will be looking forward to the opening.
April 16, 20169 yr comment_232487 Maybe they've read TPM and taken on board how much everybody hates the quality theming of Saw's exterior.

Sent from my SM-G361F using Tapatalk If the posters were old train timetables and other things usually found in victorian times such as beverages and destinations to travel to, I wouldn't mind. But I doubt Victorians had to worry with fracking, and the posters look modern. That is where my issue lies.

But I doubt Victorians had to worry with fracking, and the posters look modern. That is where my issue lies. The setting is an abandoned Victorian building in modern times, so over time anti fracking protestors would've put posters up on it (I'm guessing fracking is part of the storyline).
April 16, 20169 yr comment_232495 There's a lot of posters up around the building and queue line area. Hiding writing on the wall. I'll post some photos of the writing on wall later
April 16, 20169 yr comment_232496 Does this mean effects within the trains outside can now begin to be tested? Let's hope so!
April 16, 20169 yr comment_232498 Well 4D effects are expected to be untalised, I'd highly doubt they'd not include them if they are attempting to truely immerse you within the attraction, especially when they are really pushing the idea you won't know what is real and was is not.
April 16, 20169 yr comment_232499 Yeah, I guess you'll see something in the VR and like a normal person think oh that's cool, then the zombie will grab your arm or something both physically and on screen, I'd guess the majority of effects/electronics will relate to those effects.
