Gordon Bombay Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 No, some of FOF's theming is good, its just not kept up well anyone remember all the pattern lights that used to be on the UFO and the laser light show that used to take place when the power went out? Also, the voice that said "welcome to our ship....." PKI lets so much of its theming go to hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOF/Z 4-ever Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I agree with you, but you have to agree that it is still a heavy themed ride. Just the light shows and such are not working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Bombay Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Oh yeah, its definently heavily themed, im not knocking that, im jsut knocking how things like lights and sound dont seem to be kept up well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOF/Z 4-ever Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Back to the point, FOF still has signs up in the saucer warning people to remove loose earings and jewerly. Also tells you to sit all the way back in your seat with your head against the head rests. I see all the time people not doing that and they get off complaining. I wonder why....

HelixSpiral Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 With those seatbelts, running three trains would be a moot point. With only two, the second train is almost always finished unloading by the time the first train is ready to launch. Adding the a third wouldn't increase capacity much if at all. I'm definately not knocking the crew. Last time I rode, they were going very fast; it's just those seatbelt buckles suck. Most of the time it's hard to get them to snap closed even with slack in the belt, let alone if the rider is larger. I remember checking bars with the old restraints, and it took only about 25-30 seconds from gate-open to launch most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those seat belts suck, but its life. They are easy if the guests dont sit on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
