You can't miss it. Maybe they're going to take a page from the comic books. "Kill off" a major character, (Son of Beast) only to explain they were in a different dimension upon their return... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 They could use the Outpost 5 concept for another ride, but Son of Beast is never coming back. I suppose they could do another Beast-themed coaster (Bride of Beast?), but the park just installed a new wooden rollercoaster last year.

I’ll bet we see it at some point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestro Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 The Marketing an PR folks are paid well to cleverly drum up buzz on anything and everything. And they do a darn good job. How convinced were the local TV stations in the last few months that both Son of Beast was returning and Vortex was being torn down? Only to be completely wrong, but still get even more buzz about the truths? That takes talent. However, I will say that in exchange for the terribly long hours and the stress of running a theme park, one of the greatest joys of having worked at a park (especially for someone who had the knowledge of the "next big project") is to mess with people and watch the reactions :-) Remember the old Dippin Dots Guy theory? He didn't know. He probably didn't even think he knew. He just liked screwing with people :-) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirtimeBanking Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Long time lurker, first time poster here. I don't know if this is real or not but I saw someone posted it to reddit. Thought I would check with the pros here and see what you guys thought. Looks like someone uploaded something and meant to make it private. Already saved it in case it gets deleted. Looks legit but I can't tell honestly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fan made coaster. If it was real, it would be on Kings Island's social media account. So always check their site, or their social media accounts, and/or this site.

I did check their accounts but my thought was that it doesn’t at all look like something they meant to release, so we wouldn’t see anything on their social media anyway. Like it was an unofficial animation that got leaked or something I guess time will tell though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mistake the park wouldn't make. I also don't think they would make this detailed of a teaser this early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mistake the park wouldn't make. I also don't think they would make this detailed of a teaser this early. Yeah I don’t know what the typical timeline for releases like this is. regardless it could be a 410 drop with a 380 height. Terrible annotation I did from a screenshot on my phone shows where the footers likely intersect at the ground and the track seems to continue down for what could easily be another 30 feet, making it 410. I know the area behind FoF slopes downward to the little Miami river, so this would probably be possible, and is definitely the flavor I’m hoping for if we are getting a B&M Giga. I like this concept way too much to not hope it’s real lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I believe that the 380 height/ 410 drop is based off of the idea that a lot of people on here would like to see a drop exceed the height. This is clearly a coaster created on NL2 by someone who frequents these forums or keeps up with KI news as you see they display the post I referenced about the giga land area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Most Cedar Fair parks, including Kings Island, will normally make this kind of a big announcement in August, aka, coaster enthusiast Christmas. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeastFarmer Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Why would The Beast need to be unleashed? I'd rather she stay somewhat leashed in Rivertown. It would be great to have another coaster themed to the story line, but don't degrade the original.

Kyle100991 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 That is one of the best creations I have seen. I wish it was real. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivertown Rider Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 It looks like someone took the supports and background from I305 and they plopped some of Fury and Leviathan on top of it. I agree with others that this is not real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyrfyter Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I think the dead giveaway is the news clips. No teaser or otherwise has ever included news clips in it. It’s such a detractor to the rest of the video. Clearly amateur work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I actually think it's funny that people think it is real. No park would ever design a teaser trailer this early in the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
