  1. I would keep the, "wetness" in Rivertown and Soak City but that's just my opinion. Growing up, my friends and I would ride the log flume, white water canyon, then we took the train to Soak City since we were already soaked.
  2. I feel like the park is going back to its 70s-80s roots with its look and charm. We've seen the return of some old attractions like The Bat, Winterfest, the Antique Cars, and now Racer and I-Street are getting some work done. I wonder if Cedar Fair and Kings Island are trying to bring back/mimic the success of the Taft Era.
  3. I wonder if we'll be seeing a return of this type of design http://www.cincinnativiews.net/kings_island.htm
  4. I would prefer to have less- actor houses where there the scare factor comes from props and the illusion of "who's there?" I've been to a few attractions that have no people whatsoever, but rather had creepy props and some animated figures which made me kept thinking someone was going to jump out at any given moment. Jumpscares are quick ways to scare people but they aren't as "intimate" and people get over them quick. If they de-actor some of the houses and add some more props it might add to the creepy factor.
  5. RMC Beast
  6. I think we're gonna have it animal/fiction themed. Since 2014 Cedar Fair has added major coasters based on folklore and fiction like Banshee, Mystic Timbers, Rougarou, Valravn, GateKeeper, Copperhead Strike, etc. I still think we might get some Centurion teasing but I think it'll be something along the lines of Banshee and Mystic Timbers naming.
  7. I'm not disagreeing with you, X-Base needs to grow and I think we'll be seeing that very soon. Action Zone is often crowded and sometimes its nice to have a little more room, even if it means adding some more attractions along with it.
  8. I think they're gonna add a new section. Its been rumored for a while that they're going to add a boardwalk area reminiscent of Coney Island and other old school coasters. With the park removing their onsite dorms all attention is gonna be on that area during the 2019 season. I don't think they'll necessarily need a new coaster for their anniversary. If it were me I would focus more on appearance and drawing more families to the park- I think they have plenty of coasters to keep the enthusiasts happy for a while.
  9. This has been discussed in other threads across the forums but does anyone think Action Zone will/should be expanded? The most obvious location for expansion would be the underused Timberwolf Amphitheater as well as Congo Falls and even Xtreme Skyflyer. The land is relatively flat and rides like Congo Falls and Xtreme Skyflyer could be relocated if need be. I think this would be a good location for some extra flat rides or possibly even a large scale attraction like a Dive or Wing coaster should the park ever decide to go that route.
  10. I agree I think it would be more of a haunt attraction due to the excess of land that could be used as a haunted trail. Also they wouldn't have to remove any of those props during the regular season.
  11. @silver2005 Superman at SFNE has one of the best second halfs of any coaster in my opinion. I love how Fury 325 has some "curvy" sections during its second half that I would love KI to adapt and expand on with their own giga.
  12. Not to burst your bubble @Klabergian Empire but I made a concept like this a while ago, and it actually made the news. Great minds think alike!
  13. I thought the same thing and it wouldn't be a bad spot for it. Cedar Point needs a stationary observation tower.
  14. I agree, there are so many Wildcat clones that I wouldn't mind sacrificing one and seeing what RMC could do with it.
  15. I could care less in all honesty, their reliability leaves something to be desired. In all honesty they should spend time working out the kinks on their current rides to improve their reputation instead of adding rides we know are gonna malfunction in some form or another. I wanna see Mack excel and really take the US market by storm. I fear that seasoned US coaster enthusiasts are gonna be somewhat underwhelmed- but I can't say much considering I've never ridden a Mack myself.
  16. I agree with the first two but I would want Mack to inprove on their launched coasters before one comes here. It might contradict what I've said before about wanting a Mack but from what I've seen and heard, they're not as forceful as launched coasters from Premier or Intamin. Mack launched coasters focus a lot on hangtime as opposed to forcefullness. If you look at a pov for Copperhead Strike, the acceleration seems very slow and theres points of near stalls and hangtime during parts of the ride. I know I crap on Intamin a lot but I'd rather see a blitz coaster like Cheetah Hunt or Maverick as opposed to Maxk at the moment- unless CS proves me wrong.
  17. There might me some more room available. According to the Sandusky Resgister, the park's on site dorms are being officially being taken down. http://www.sanduskyregister.com/story/201901090052 I had fun in that place...still space is everything. I wonder if they'll reroute Perimeter Road and another attraction or expansion of some kind.
  18. I don't get why there are some people who think that we're getting a wing coaster. Granted Wing coasters are a unique experience, they don't really do much for me in particular.
  19. Very, very high
  20. I'm currently working on @silver2005's request for Dollywood. I plan on doing both BGW and BGT during the new year
  21. FC Cincinnati is a German inspired soccer team so it would be cool if they added some FCC theming to Oktoberfest- similar to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Kennywood.
  22. Is there a shed? All I see is the station, the little gas station and the covered bridge.
  23. I've been preaching for more "fun" ques in Cedar Fair for a while as opposed to being in a cattle pin, watching endless Fun TV loops, hoping a misting machine hits you. Six Flags, Sea World, and Disney have the que thing down.
  24. Also there is a substantial about of clear land from the LCS that parallels the river that would require little in comparison to Diamondback. If the old DA land is to be used, expect some type of clearing by the opening of 2019. Personally if the DA land is used, I'd imagine it would only be a small portion there the Dino Dig site was formerly located.
