actually the major attractions to parks is the roller coasters and like I said they need to add alot more than one cheap new ride as 2$million is a drop in a hat compared to what other parks add yearly and this would be ok if they actually added stuff yearly ,but they dont.and the park is real proud of themselves for adding this and actually think this is alot of money thats why im so bitchy about the park and in the last decade more things have been defunct than addedby a long shot and their prices are amoungst the highest in north america by far you dont make money buy charging more you make money by actually adding things and charging less so you get alot more people in the park and then once you have in you make money off other oulets in the park (marketing lol) which they are out to lunch on

I did send the park an email about the lack of night hours the responded by saying this is what they think works best........ ....duh of course you guys decided the hours lol! im sure 80% would agree night hours are the best.

they wont because the people running the park are actually clueless and lack what a real park should be like just look at the sad summer hours latest open for playland is 8pm most nights 7pm or 6pm wtf? (pne hours dont count) the park the way it is right now is designed for failure bad rides -over priced-and banker hours which I have no clue why they close so early what do they want to make home for dinneras parks look best at night with the lights on which most parks in north america stay open till 10pm or later ,but not playland!!!!!!!! BOY DO i SOUND BITTER,BUT iAM NOT REALLY! it just kind of sad the way the park is so poorly ran especially after the removal of the wildmouse which could have been refurbished and anyone over the age of 30 wold also know over the years of attractions that have been remooved like the Sky Glylder which is now a ski lift on seymour mtn and the removal of the old dark ride which was I think called wild safari? and the indoor butter fly with all the disco lights and this is just to name a few of the things they have removed there was once a double ferris wheel which was actually one of the best rides they ever had here is a link to one.

well where do other parks come up with money and of thats a bad way to think if you are running a park as you have to spend alot of money to make money and this why playland sits empty most of te year with a lame amount of visitors 350,000 a year only and with the poplutation of vancouver being arond the 2.5 mark there is no reason why the attendance levels should'nt be around the 1.8+ to 2million thats the kind of thinking that keeps the park as sad as it is and they could pick up a real good coaster from a few parks that have gone under for the 3- 6 million dollar mark are even pick up a half decent coaster ( SPEED THE RIDE) from vegas for under 500.000 $ as im sure by the end of the month will be up for sale I sent he park a link for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9j%C3%A0_Vu_(roller_coaster) which was s ride like this and it was 600.000$ which now is in idaho I believe here is the link ihttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73QaEJ6VFyA&feature=related is possible to up grade the park for not alot of money.

of course ,but really the park is still kinda real lame and has alot of work to go before it becomes a half decent park and they should really be adding a hyper coaster and a view other giant rides as soon as possible .

its about time they added something and good to hear they are not going to up charge like they have with the last two rides besides the westcoast wheel and its funny that playland seems to think a 2 million dollar ride is alot of money because it far from it they still need to add another 10 good rides to make this park worth a trip as the only ride before this worth going on was the coaster which is a 7/10 at best wooden coaster.....oh well atleast its a move in the right direction for now...but now just dont take another 6 years to spend 2 million dollars as like I said its not that much of an investment for a ride.(the most they have ever paid for a ride) as they have a history of buying used 2nd rate rides like the metal coaster,the beach party to name a couple.
