Tower Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 The S&S doesn't even look fun to me though. It's a small ride that will probably not as much crowds as some of the other rides because it already debuted in Texas and many people have already ridden it. The only reason why it got so much heat when Six Flags announced it was because it was the first ride of it's kind. In my honest opinion, I just think that the ride won't bring as many crowds as some other attractions added to our park in the past did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrislovescoasters Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) You guys need to remember that the S&S was built in fiesta Texas, that park is starting to become big now and a ride like that is perfect for there park, where it's the first of its kind and it fits in perfectly. Where our park are record breakers and intense rides. A s&s that's basically almost the same as batman instead taller and more flips is boring. We are due for a new roller coaster and I personally think it's gonna be a B&M wing coaster. This has been predicted for a long time and if you guys ridden x-flight you will see the difference from bizzaro and green lantern. That drop was super intense and it was an enjoyable roller coaster. My point is that a park not as big as great adventure would love almost any ride, a ride like that those goes to our park is like you pass by it you ride it. I don't think anyone would goto our park for an s&s when we have world class coasters. Edited July 10, 2015 by Chrislovescoasters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say that we deserve more than parks that don't have that much of a coaster collection as we do. Although I have a really horrible sick feeling that we will probably get an S&S 4D coaster replacing Fort Independence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted July 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Keep in mind that while Fiesta Texas got the S&S ride this year we got El Diablo. Anything is possible regardless of the size of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrislovescoasters Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 To be honest I think they were testing with the flats and trying to save money for some of the parks so that the ones that did get the flats get something major next year. Plus we needed another flat ride(that's right it's not a coaster). Sometimes it does matter about the park and I think this is one of parks that whatever you get could do such an impact because how big the park is. We don't need another ride that flips you. Yes I'm being a hypocrite because a wing rider will prob do that but still if it's a launch people wouldn't pay attention to that. By the way if we were going to get something going on fort independence I vote premier if we get something at old country I prefer wing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The area that Fort Independence took up is enough to fir an S&S free spin perfectly. I hate that so much but of course since it's true there is nothing we can do about it.

bobbyd Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) ^^Speaking of premier, one coaster type that would be cool if Great Adventure built it, would be a Premier launch coaster like Superman at Discovery Kingdom or Tempesto at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. I thought Tempesto was a very intense ride that did not take up much space but still delivered a fun experience. It would also give us another launched coaster, and a looping coaster that isn't a B&M. The one big downside to this ride though, would be its capacity. On the days I was at BGW, it didn't seem like a problem, but I visited earlier this year before the summer. Edited July 10, 2015 by bobbyd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tower Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Apparently there are mixed reactions on the ride at Fiesta Texas but this post just makes me even more worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro1118 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 There's nothing to be scared about... most reports say it's a smooth, fun ride with some thrilling moments. However, it is very short and lacks variety. It is definitely an anti-climatic addition after years of (im)patiently waiting, but it should be a decent coaster unlike anything we have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK456 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) I agree about the wingrider. We don't really need one at all. We have B&M's that do everything, and I don't think they have any drastically different experiences left to offer. EDIT: I know I've asked this many times but when is the little teaser campaign going to start? I'm tired of just aimless speculation and I want the real game to begin!

Chrislovescoasters Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 It will probably start when they announce the date of what the parks are getting. Last year it started two days after they released the date so let's see if it's the same this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railer Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 The fence in the back of the Park now goes from the back of the Arcade tent, to the Flashpass Building. The Lakefront is now closed off.

Railer Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Correction. The fence is to about the "Teacups", not the Arcade tent. I think you can still get down by the lake right behind B.B. National Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
