dare-to-fly Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Not everybody rode The Racer on its opening day, Terpy! (I'm so jealous of you for that.) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 And Son of Beast. There's that, too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dare-to-fly Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 True, but considering the time difference, Racer is more impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBInternational Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 For anyone who hasn't noticed, a new park map is now up on the site at: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/images/uploads/file/2013%20KI%20Park%20Map.pdf Not really any noticeably big changes but here's what I see: Vortex track is now more orange-y Thunder Alley is gone AZ water tower is gone Racer's supports look more detailed Also I notice the lack of a change. They did not add the new tallest dinosaur to DA. So overall pretty boring in terms of changes to the map, but still a new map is a new map. And something about seeing a new map gets me excited for the opening of the park! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CedarPointer Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I wish they had left the logo in the middle of Action Zone, it's still there and it looks too empty with it missing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creed Bratton Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Overall, like you said, not much of a change. I do however miss the days of the rides and attractions being labeled by number, thus showing more detail generally to the rides/attractions on the maps. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 It looks great but I still see that ugly white building next to Diamondback.... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIDelirium Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Huh, the metal detector canopy is back on the map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DontWantToWait42mar0 Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Flight Deck isn't easy to spot. Also Actionless Zone looks bare. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkroz Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Meanwhile a big change on another park's map! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CedarPointer Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I like how the header image still shows Disaster Transport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do however miss the days of the rides and attractions being labeled by number, thus showing more detail generally to the rides/attractions on the maps. I have to disagree with you. I'd rather the rides be named on the map rather than having to look up what they are. Just from a more useful perspective, I'd rather they not change back. Food and the like can be numbered, but not rides, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTheater Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Meanwhile a big change on another park's map! The front looks so empty without Spiral. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfanatic83 Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 And by empty you mean full of blue, B&M, wing-rider goodness, right? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTheater Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I mean empty with a big hole that used to be filled by the exaggerated Spiral caricature. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkroz Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I think it's time for Cedar Point to get a new map style, too. Citigraph! Really, Compare Gatekeeper's "height" to Wicked Twister's. Gatekeeper is barely noticeable since it's shown from such an extreme overhead angle while Top Thrill Dragster is scraping passing planes. Couldn't hurt to try out a new style next year. (Spoiler alert: they won't.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CedarPointer Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Looking at Citigraph's website is a real blast from the 90's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 You have a way of really making the Terpster feel ancient. Harumph! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
