It is possible that they might want it to become a bottleneck area?

I didn't want to start a new thread so I'll ask here, does anyone see Congo Falls getting the axe anytime soon? I don't know how feasible relocating the ride to another section of the park is. The only true reason to close it would be if there was a better attraction to put in that area. Thoughts?

I could see two coasters toppling Diamondback's height in the future. First, obviously, is a giga since those immediately outrank a hyper in terms of height. Second, I could possibly see a dive coaster in the far, far, far future; when dive coasters are at virtually at every popular park. I have a theory that dive coasters are going to be the next invert given their popularity with the GP and how compact they are. I'm honestly surprised there isn't a single dive coaster at any Six Flags park, especially since they love to clone coasters and rides.

Because you always have concepts to post when there isn't really anymore news on a giga besides the document I posted on page 108.

Well it does but when you construct a coaster, you have to cut down trees to make room for equipment and such.

Kiddie Kingdom looks like a traveling carnival

I'm sure those lockers will be utilized if the new coaster comes to X-Base

Diamondback has the best layout of all the hypers ever made- it uses the terrain to its advantage and has that splashdown ending. A lot of those coasters that are in the top 10 for steel and wood incorporate terrain in some type of way.

Plus they have 4 kids coasters and a kids log flume to boot. Planet Snoopy, in theory, is an amusement park inside of an amusement park.

I'm afraid that any change to Planet Snoopy will hurt its chances for winning another golden ticket award. I don't know how popular the petting zoo is but I feel like you could add some more rides in that area. I still think a new coaster would be nice.

@McSalsa Would you said that said KK hyper would be better than Diamondback?

I think it was used to be either a shaded shelter for animals or an animal holding house back when LCS existed.

I wonder if the park will receive more haunt talent with the addition of employee dorms.

I said it before and I'll say it again: rebrand- remove the existing props theming, repaint the track and supports, and change the trains to fit a western/ antique theme. http://www.themeparkreview.com/parks/p_345_3124_knotts_berry_farm_pony_express

From a GP perspective, imagine a coaster that's as tall, if not taller, than the Eiffel Tower. People would go nuts.

I think something that needs to change is the gap between rides and haunted houses. I remember when the train, antique cars, and the late Phantom Theater were all haunted attractions. I wouldn't mind if they sacrificed their weakest haunt maze to bring these back and have scare-actors throughout the rides. Heck I wouldn't mind if they changed the shed to have haunt jump-scares.

This^ I should have been more specific.

@beastfan11, no I welcome it! Anyone can post on here

I agree that haunt has been declining, I think its the competition from area attractions like USS Nightmare, Land of Illusion, and Dent School House.

Fun Fact, Kings Island's #12 locomotive had a nearly identical locomotive made in 1972 for Lakeside Amusement Park located in Salem, VA. This locomotive was later bought by Busch Gardens Williamsburg in the 90s and received a huge overhaul to where its not even recognizable to its original design. https://www.facebook.com/Fireup611/posts/did-you-know-that-611-is-not-the-only-roanoke-area-steam-locomotive-still-in-ope/830368660471477/

Every once and a while you see myself or other creative users post theming ideas and unique concepts on different threads, so I thought I'd create a thread for everyone to share their KI concept art

A couple of things to consider about the actual layout that might be answered this fall. Will the antique cars path compromise the Field of Screams que tent? Field of Screams is returning for Haunt this year so I feel like they aren't going to touch the tent or the area, unless they get rid of the tent last minute and re-route the Field of Screams entrance for next season. Here's my crude concept.

B&M was listed as a company the park was working with for a project so I'm 99% sure its a giga

Oh so the station is going to be in the peach basket location, interesting
