1729 Posted March 27, 2018 Report Posted March 27, 2018 sight off topic but slammer is still running in that advert XD but opening this saturday, be intreasting whats changed advert looks like the block sections are back and theming been put in it Quote
RockerRollercoaster8 Posted March 27, 2018 Report Posted March 27, 2018 I've got a thery that at some point on the ride a person on the car will change from a normal person to a zombie (actor) on the break run or when the lights go out? Could happening randomly? It might not be possible with safety and the restraints, but that would be pretty cool if that happened! Upping the scare factor I suppose..? Quote
RockerRollercoaster8 Posted March 27, 2018 Report Posted March 27, 2018 Also any word if they are actually using animatronics on the ride? Or has that been thrown out the window now? They might wizz over a zombie or a ghoul from Duel or tomb blast, to install on the ride! ? Quote
streetmagix Posted March 27, 2018 Report Posted March 27, 2018 I've seen the 'member of the public is actually an actor' thing done a couple of times and honestly, it's something really special if it's done right. The issue is having enough actors to fill one seat in each train. Also they would need to queue otherwise people would twig pretty quickly. Quote
MarkC Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 If all goes to plan we shall be posting live updates of the ride tonight! Enjoy xxx JoelAllen 1 Quote
MattyMoo Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Hurrah  Hope that motorbike is screwed down properly - that looks far too easily accessible for people to mess about with! Quote
TPC Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 I really hope "the ride" part of the logo looks clearer in person. Quote
J.S217 Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 The signage looks great. Love the idea of the area the Dock Yard. I think it fits the current Amity area over all. You have The Town the Beach now the Dock Yard. Quote
JoshuaA Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 I think it looks perfect next to Storm Surge..  Ugly. onair 1 Quote
TPC Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Why is Storm Surge not included in the Dock Yard area? Thinking about it, it fits amazingly well with the water (as docks), the top of the structure and its' location. Quote
Stuntman707 Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 We will find out tonight how good it really is! Bare in mind it’s a press night too so it will be the very best it’s going to get and way better than it ever will be when it just opens to the public. Quote

Whatever Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 viner Daz Black's opinion on the ride (via his instagram story): Â "So we just got out of Thorpe Park. We did the new Walking Dead ride. Do not bother. Honestly it is the worst **** I have ever seen and we got soaked, we were in the queue for so long-" (video cuts) "And the old ride there, No Way Out, they just stuck a few zombies on the walls and it was over in like two seconds and it was the ****test ride I've ever done" Â BIG MOOD have basically no expectations for this ride. Ruined X totally. onair 1 Quote

pluk Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Well, good job I was sitting down when I read that! Shock. Ringo and Mer 2 Quote
TPC Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Credit where credit is due. The theming is nice, but it still doesn't fit in the park very well. Quote
Marc Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 The battery packs are on one of the trains, lighting up the more noise / vibrations there are! Ringo 1 Quote

GetEchoes Posted March 30, 2018 Report Posted March 30, 2018 Just now, Stuntman707 said: Hmm, mixed reviews What development doesnt get mixed reviews? From what I have seen it looks well themed. If you didn't like X then you wont like it as there are no ride changes anyway.  As usual, be a try it for yourself and make a decision I recon Marc 1 Quote

IAC is well themed, but that doesn’t automatically give it a free pass on being a good attraction.  There are many other factors to consider too, the least of which the idea of the park turning a decent family coaster into a thrill machine just so they can brag about using another bleedin’ IP...
