It's not so much that people are referring to the two water parks in the area, the more the merrier I'd say, but it's that they're both operated by the same company, If I the consumer were to buy a combo pass, I intend to visit both SFoG and WW. With the addition of Hurricane Harbor, why should I even consider the option of a pass to both parks when I can just visit SFoG/HH for the price of a regular season pass. I personally live between the two parks, but why should I now make the drive to White Water when I can just exclude that cost from a regular season pass. Nothing there convinces me to spend more money. If these wer operated by two separate companies then the two could seriously compete with each other, drawing the same waterpark-seeking crowd to whichever was the better park. Why would SFoG now compete with themselves?

Dude, Pacificoaster made one just like that! Same colors and everything. -
[RCT2] PROJECT I: Playland Park (NCSO)
nin replied to XYZ's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Im liking this. I think you could afford to have more shrubbery among the trees, and maybe use more land textures to break up all of the grass. Grass isn't everywhere in real life, you know. Maybe open up the foliage near the station too, since you can't really see it from the midway. That, or place a sign out front. Just something to acknowledge the ride. The hut over the queue entrance is a nice addition, but maybe put a roof on it to make it into a watchtower or something. That could help the theme of the ride. -

This is awesome! The fact that the actual trains are being made just shows the level of dedication you have. Fantastic. -

I love how clean the construction of this is. The tube-style supports do wonders. -
TPR Challenge V Part II: Snow place like home
nin replied to CrazyParkManager's topic in Games Forum Moderators
RD, I'm just wondering why that sort of rule has even be made? If people want to theme their stuff alongside the actual challenge, just let it be. I guess I'm just missing the point of all the "extra" rules of these more recent challenges. -
TPR Challenge V Part II: Snow place like home
nin replied to CrazyParkManager's topic in Games Forum Moderators
Re-theming the rides is forbidden? Way to suck the fun out of this challenge. Good luck to those actually willing to participate. -
Any update here? Or is this the current version? I just don't want to start on it if I shouldn't.

Some may have seen this already, but this is my interpretation of a little Superman-themed ride that recently opened.. SCR80.BMP -
Six Flags America (SFA) Discussion Thread

That's such an awesome video! Are the black bars intentionally shaking? Or is it from a camera stabilization effect or something of the sort? Either way it's great! On another note, this is one of my favorite additions to the SF chain this year, and I'm glad it turned out looking this great. Hoping to see more like this in the near future. -
TPR's Wing-Rider Challenge
nin replied to CrazyParkManager's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
These rules seem to be missing one from previous challenges. There is no "all rides must be operational" rule. In a previous challenge I used track to add a touch of theming, not "hacking" it into the game, but just not making it a full circuit. Can I do that here? Not saying I am going to, but let's say a touch of track or something is used. Would I be DQ'd/banned for that..? -

Vengeance - Knex Coaster

That looks great! I'm in love with the station, and I wish you could build a queue and surrounding area, though that's more of my wishful thinking coming through! -
The "Preview" Thread
nin replied to DBru's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Everything is just so brown. The world is full of color, so it's okay to show it. The trunks of those trees could be different, they're dark and look a bit off compared to the traditional, default trees (which sport a light brown or gray trunk). -
Have You Ever Worked At An Amusement/Theme Park?
nin replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm a ride operator for Dare Devil Dive at SFoG. Great fun! -
I think this is great! The park's a bit over-saturated with the DC brand, but I'm assuming it will start balancing out in the next few years- if the park adds new attractions. I'm surprised with the Arkham video game theme, but marketing-wise it works well. If WB Games releases a 3rd game into the franchise, WBMW can promote that through the ride, but could also pull the franchise at any moment and create a typical Arkham-theme.

That small pop up on the flume is ingenious interaction. This is all very great. I must admit I don't care for the wing rider, mostly because it just seems a bit subpar compared to the rest. Just a bit more development could fix that. -

I don't like the orange Victorian detailing on the swan boat station. Should be a color with a more tranquil feeling, such as white. -
What Movies are You Looking Forward to Seeing 2012?
nin replied to Someotherguyuser's topic in Random, Random, Random
I'll put The Dark Knight Rises on my list, but only because I was such a fan of Batman Begins. TDK was incredibly overrated. -Lincoln -The Amazing Spider-Man -Rock of Ages -Brave-The Avengers -among others..
