fyrfyter Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 Park with most Beast related coasters (we’ve had 3, 2 are left and I fully expect another one in the future) Quote

SonofBaconator Posted September 30, 2018 Author Posted September 30, 2018 I like how we still have land that isn't developed and how the park is surrounded by woods. Quote
fyrfyter Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 I like how we still have land that isn't developed and how the park is surrounded by woods. I’d consider that as ok, if they would at least finish the unfinished areas (X Base) and maybe add 1 more. 1 Quote

What's interesting is that they have pretty well "bricked" themselves into the space that they have. They have always built perimeter style, and have blocked off areas of their park where they would have to make major changes to expand into them. Quote
JudeHoward Posted October 4, 2018 Posted October 4, 2018 I think "Wooden Coaster Capital" would suit us well. Especially if we ever *hypothetically* got an RMC ground up. Think about it. A family wooden coaster, a racing coaster, a terrain wooden coaster, a GCI wooden coaster, and an RMC topper track. That would make easily make us the world class park we want to be. Not even including our steel coasters like, Diamondback, Banshee, Vortex, etc. 1 Quote

They have always built perimeter style, and have blocked off areas of their park where they would have to make major changes to expand into them. I don’t consider that to be true at all. The entire perimeter has service roads around it, that wind back into the park. If you can fit service roads, there is room for pathways. You can always expand beyond your current area without any major changes necessary other than adding the pathways, utilities and rides. Quote
lifetimecoaster Posted October 4, 2018 Posted October 4, 2018 After I made that comment I looked at the satellite views and it is doable for sure, but will require moving and removing a lot of maintenance stuff, service roads being one of those things. 1 Quote

They’re removing a lot of stuff right now to put antique autos in... Quote
kingsislandfan1972 Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 I would have to say that The Beast is definitely the best roller coaster ever to ride at night but that’s my opinion. 2 Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 Park with the least amount of shade. Quote

fyrfyter Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 Park with the least amount of shade. Park with the most unused structures, minus the month of October... Quote

I've been to some other parks where I longed for the big trees at KI. Even Magic Kingdom is lacking on shade compared to KI and boy do they need it even more than we do! lol Quote

Imperial79 Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 The shade isn't a big problem, but the park did use to have more then what it does now. They cut some of the branches off the tree's on International Street, so that doesn't help with having shade, and it looked nicer as well. Hope they bring back the floral style shrubs next to the Royal Fountains, and possibly the floral "Kings Island'' design that used to be in the front of the entrance, put that somewhere in the park as well. Edit and can we get some new tables on IS with umbrellas? 1 Quote

Hardly any shade for the parents there. Quote
