Then that almost confirms that X base will remain a dead-end in the park won't add another path. Also people who are in line for Flight of Fear, when the Firehawk que is used, will have an awesome view of the new coaster
-
Getting back on topic, I do think it's interesting that the park decided to combine Firehawk and Flight of Fear's que line. However, something bugs me. Every time I've been to the park, only half of the FoF que has ever been open; the part to the right of the UFO. Does the park still utilize the left hand side of the que?

I wouldn't say this is credible coming from a user who can't even spell Cincinnati right

The Next Cedar Point Coaster
SonofBaconator replied to BeastForever's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Bringing back an old thread. B&M Flyer over Adventure Island would be my guess for their next coaster. -
I often thought the same thing, maybe create a thread around it to discuss further
-
Well that thread as well as this one will probably be locked when the announcement comes about the 2020 attraction. If it had a layout of a dive coaster or something like that I could see this thread still being used but everybody's pretty certain that it's a giga.
-
This thread is for speculation, the other is for decoding. Plus this thread was created first and we cannot "officially" confirm that the 2020 project will be a giga until the park makes an announcement.
-
The architecture of this station, by the looks of it, resembles the exterior of Flight of Fear to a degree.

Speaking of X-Base, what do you think about the legitimacy of adding a second path along the Blue Racer side?
-
With the addition of this new coaster, it only makes me wonder if X-Base will be its own section or not. The area lack's restrooms and a permanent food vendor, excluding the Dippin Dots, but we might see those emerge come next season.
-
I haven't been to the park this season but how different does it look going through the mcbr with the construction nearby?
-
Yukon Striker is the same height as Valravn but it has a longer drop. I think KI could land the "longest drop" title if the ravine is about 15ft+ deep
-
I agree. Look at the construction for this in relation to the land clearing on the other side of Flight of Fear. I'm no construction expert but even if this was related to the coaster it seems kind of "late". If this area was used for a coaster wouldn't the grass already be all torn up and reduced to dirt? This seems like a side project that could be in companion to the 2020 project.

Which Giga name will be coming to Kings Island
SonofBaconator replied to Cedar Fair Fanboy's topic in KI Polls
What would be the benefit of renaming Flight of Fear? Would the theming be changed? If the name changes and not the theming people would still call it Flight of Fear. Its one of the coolest names for a coaster in my opinion -
Which Giga name will be coming to Kings Island
SonofBaconator replied to Cedar Fair Fanboy's topic in KI Polls
People who like to jump to conclusions. Speaking of colors, I think we can speculate the one color they won't be using- red. -
@LintemuthStudios while you're not wrong, I don't think Kings Island is next on the list to get a looping coaster- especially with other parks due for one like World's of Fun. After the 2020 coaster, I could realistically see us getting a new coaster for Planet Snoopy or just a smaller tier coaster like a wild mouse or even a spinning coaster. Also it's not completely out of the realm of possibilities to speculate something along the lines of Wonder Mountain's Guardian if the park decides it's worth it to modify the Crypt building.

I feel like if the official height is under 300ft we'll be roasted by the amusement park community

An indoor wildmouse would be cool but it would have to be pretty well themed like Mystery Mine to make it work.
-
A lot of renderings and concepts show that the coaster will have a steep drop but is it possible to go 90°? Is there anything in the blue prints that would say that a 90° drop is out of the question?
-
August. I've haven't been to the park yet this season but from what I heard there are no teasers or posters similar to what we saw with Diamondback, Banshee and Mystic Timbers' construction. It's almost like the park itself isn't acknowledging what's happening.
