Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion Thread

^ ...y'know something? I'm dumb.

It doesn't "confirm" anything. I mean... Six Flags used a grim reaper to tease a lazy river once and nothing they do makes sense but I'll admit that it's looking pretty promising.

I started going back to the park from a 9 year hiatus back in 2015 from 2007 but I heard they got backlash for teasing the hell out of El Diablo and it just being a Larson Loop. If that's true, I'm not sure they'd want to take that risk again, but who knows.

[boldikus]

Once I saw SFMM wasn't getting anything and SFGAm is getting what they're getting, and with all this teasing, its pretty obvious we're getting the big addition this year.

 

And C R E Y S M doesn't spell out anything else.

 

(I still want it to be a kids area)

If it is indeed an RMC:

 

90% - Single Rail clone

10% - Unique Ground up construction

 

Seems about the likelihood, no?

I saw an interview with Alan Schilke where he stated RMC wanted to sell more raptor clones, but parks were requesting bigger models. And he said in fact the next one would not be a clone. So we'll see I guess..

[B&MIntaminGCI]

In the same interview he also said they’re working on a medium rail concept that we’ll likely see before the T-Rex.

 

I wouldn’t be too surprised if we got that but I’m not expecting it. It’ll probably just be a custom raptor.

[Zand]

Be great if instead of an RMC they announced a B&M Giga and everyone here lost their mind.

[RAWKIN_coaster38]

"It's unlike anything we have around" = custom

 

There are 14 custom iBox RMCs. If you take out the 3 in the Eastern Hemisphere, you get 11. So SFGAdv would be the 12th on the Western Hemisphere (counting BGT's coaster, of course).

 

RMC El Toro confirmed.

 

Or better yet... RMC Rolling Thunder.

It's amazing they made it this long, leaks are just soup du jour nowadays. Not just in the amusement industry either.

It's not always Six Flags fault. We have the footage too, it was sent to a NUMBER of outlets under embargo (which means you wait to post it until they tell you). It's nice because we can get everything ready this way and not have to freak out tomorrow morning doing a ton of work. But then a few idiots ruin it for everyone when they post early!

 

I hope Six Flags takes action against the people that post early!

[robbalvey]

That being said from what I’ve seen, this looks like a great addition!

Do I seriously need to start banning people???

DO NOT MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT POSTS OR START A DISCUSSION ABOUT IT UNTIL THE ADMINS HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO DO SO!!!!!!!!!!!

 

All this does it make MORE WORK for the admins.

 

Has the world really gotten this stupid?

 

Don't answer that...I already know...

Probably Darien Lake lol, they don't tease anything.

Have they done anything like that before? I remember when Maxx Force was leaked and it didn't seem like they did anything.

 

Hasn't the local news accidentally announced something too early?

^Most people tend to agree that TTD is better because it offers a generally smoother ride with lap bars instead of the OTS restraints of Kingda Ka. I am one of these people.

 

That said, to each their own.

[thrillseeker4552]

If it's a front row ride, Kingda Ka. Any other row and I prefer TTD.

[RollerManic]

I prefer KK as it feels more intense. The “roughness” didn't take anything away from the ride; on the contrary, it added to it by making it feel that much more intense.

I prefer TTD for the reasons you mentioned, lap bars beat OTSRs and KK has more of a rattle than TTD. Honestly, I recently rode Red Force and it's now my favorite of all the Intamin accelerator coasters. It has a different restraint system that is a lap bar that you pull down over your head, similar to Skyrush but 100% more comfortable. Red Force also goes straight over the top like Xcelerator, which makes for better airtime than the twist of TTD/KK.

[B&MIntaminGCI]

Dragster SMOKES Kingda Ka in my opinion. The smoothness of Dragster combined with the lapbars makes it like 30x better. The ONLY thing Ka has is the initial take off feels a bit stronger on Ka than on Dragster, in my opinion.

Unfortunately no. It’s all because someone wants to be the first announce what the ride is.
