tuxedoman52 Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 ^^Funniest signature I've ever seen I don't think the old The Bat trains will be returning. They definatly don't have the old trains and I don't how they could replicate the old trains. Quote
fanofFirehawk Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I wonder if you will see the new Midway for The Bat. I hope that they do something nifty with the station I mean they did start to take out the old email queue in late September so why wouldn't they put some new stuff in or will they just design a queue to hold a higher capacity crowd and expected increase in ridership.

Yeah, good thing they got rid of the old email. Way too much spam getting sent there. In all seriousness, I doubt they'll do much to the queue. Even without the part from under the station, it's still one of (if not the) longest queues in the park. Even with Banshee next door, I'll be surprised to see that thing reach the midway. 4 Quote
fanofFirehawk Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 LOL, I guess I won't be using the voice recognition software that comes with the phone I was on. At the very least the station will get a new coat of paint won't it? Quote
shawnofthedead Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Invertago as screamin demon or king cobra would be brilliant! Yea, then we can rename The Beast to Son of Beast. I would like the be paid a designer for the park, apparently all you have to do is rehash old ride names. Quote
Spectrum91 Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 ^And you're still missing the whole point of renaming Flight Deck to The Bat. 9 Quote
The Interpreter Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 ^^ And if you were a paid designer for the park, you'd design within the parameters you were given. If you didn't, you'd likely be a former paid designer. Maybe the paid part. Probably not. 1 Quote
homestar92 Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Is there an Artist rendering of what The Bat will look like with it's new colors? Here you go: 29 Quote
Kat Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 ^ LOL!!!! That's just great. That's quite talent, actually anyways, am I the ONLY one hoping for Invertigo to be renamed Stinger?? For those that don't know what Stinger is, it's Dorney Park's Invertigo: Quote
Adventuro Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I don't think any of the other rides need renamed, besides sky flyer. The rest are okay. Everyone has trouble calling rides by their new names so that's annoying, Quote
calakapepe Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Which I don't understand, hahaI never slip up, I only use the old names to make it easier to let my friends know which ride I'm talking about. Just in case they only know it by the old names; I go to the park regularly enough that I quickly and easily use the new names. Quote

MagnumFan Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Hopefully nobody dies on this version of "The Bat". As a kid (born in 76) we got to go to KI maybe once every other year. I remember most of my youth getting there and seeing the sign "The Bat is not operating today". I love the new colors and think it's a good name, except I don't see why the park would want to dig into an old wound of a failed ride. 2 Quote
MagnumFan Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 :Facepalm Nevermind. I'm an idiot. I can't find any evidence anywhere that a death actually occured. I just took my parent's word for it. I was only 7 years old. Parents aren't supposed to lie. 7 Quote

I'll "edit" too...lol By your words, though, you would have visited only twice when the original ride was operational. I think that "most of my youth" may be overstating things a bit. 3 Quote

IndyGuy4KI Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 A rendering of the sign for The Bat, featuring the new logo: TheBat2 by Diamondbacker, on Flickr It would be cool for it to be a LED lit sign! 3 Quote
homestar92 Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Wouldn't it be cool if they enclosed the lift hill like AE's final hill and gave it eerie music and some candelabra along the walls? 1 Quote
Kat Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 It seems like every injury related to a ride wants to get called a death 1 Quote

LoraX Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 i was thinking the same thing Kat. It is amazing how many 'deaths' never occurred. Like I heard 15 were killed on Son of Beast. A rendering of the sign for The Bat, featuring the new logo: TheBat2 by Diamondbacker, on Flickr I just noticed the detail of the ride in the background - how cool. 6 Quote
calakapepe Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Thanks for the color alterations guys! Looks like you will be rewarded for the efforts you went through to make them this time! Quote
Creed Bratton Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I was bored, so, here is my render. Great editing! I want to say that the trains are going to be all black...but not sure if I read the press release right. Quote
DJSkyFoxx Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Really enjoying all these rendered pictures. Helps one get an idea of whats in store. I can't say enough how much I enjoy the orange and black...I truly feel that this will give this poor coaster some much needed attention because the current color scheme really never did anything for it. It was just...dull. I know it was meant to have jet fighter colors, but its more likely going to garner up more attention with the new colors and name. People will be more interested in what is has to offer. 11 Quote
