    FYI I went to to the Park yesterday and Rivals was running two trains.

    Here's so photos of it during construction and stills of it in action

    You are comparing oranges with apples. I'm trying to work out why you are not impressed by DW this time. A wise person once said this. (like 19 mins ago in another topic)
  8. Tricoart
    They’re trying to make the point that it’s unknown if Dreamworld are making, or will make, similar quality posts about the ride as those that MW made for Flash, as the time hasn’t come for those to be posted yet (Like, for example, a construction timelapse, footage of trains arriving/testing, etc).
  9. Tricoart
    I agree, I’m talking solely about the website (having ‘Now Open’ & ‘Closed’ on the same page, for the same ride, at the same time).
  10. ShakeShack
    Where was this said? I'm confused by your constant dribble.
  11. New display name
    So you want DW to show you juicy pictures of the finished Jungle Coaster before it is finished. Got it.

    There's a large track doing an arc on the back side of the buildings, with an arm that reaches over holding a version of the car. It required the same inspections as the parks coasters each morning.
  13. ShakeShack
    Here's an idea, if you think you can do better, why don't you send your resume in? I'm sure they would appreciate your expertise in literally everything.
  14. ShakeShack
    How do I spell it out easier for you, where did I reference footage of the track itself specifically going up for the flash? That's right I didn't.... I said it would be nice to see BTS stuff to the same quality, as a generalised statement. Do you understand?
  15. New display name
    I'll re-frame my question. I can't find one video MW posted of the Flash, while the track was going up. 🤔 Care to share the post?
  16. ShakeShack
    I was referencing the videos that were put out for the flash. However if you're looking for track photos that aren't taken on an iPhone standing in the one spot, perhaps check the Oz BTS shots?

    People need to calm the farm. The ride is running today.

    There's always going to be things that happen after a ride is officially opened. Check out TT2... The other thing to bear in mind is that we rarely have ride grand openings in cold and flu season either. Chances are they're working on opening crew and haven't had a chance to upskill other operators yet. One critical person gets sick and the whole thing can fall over. What they have learned from Levi is that grand opening in a less-peak period means the impacts are not felt as hard, and they've got plenty of time to iron out the kinks before the next school holiday period starts.

    @Dean Barnettdid a great thing opening the ride early. Why are you making song and dance on how they did it?
  21. STRAWS
    If DC Rivals had a massive Matainence period and things done to it like when DW did for the Giant Drop that would make sense to do some reopening announcement. Considering Rivals is not that old this is unlikley. your basicaly saying if Green Lantern Broke down and reopend a hour later Movie World should do a big announcement. Green Lantern has just reopened but at least we did a announcement for Dean. Moive World might tweet on their socials it has reopned but to make a big thing about a ride reopening from matainence even if its their star atrraction makes no sense to make a big deal out of it. Incase you missed the countless other discussions about scooby its closed cause the ride has gone past its lifespan. The state of the ride is not fit for purpose they dont close it for fun.

    I can't find one photo MW posted of the Flash, while the track was going up. 🤔 Care to share the post?
  23. Tricoart
    Guess they haven’t learned everything from Levi
  24. Dean Barnett
    It was to the post above it - how rivals opened early. The script could have been “we’re looking at opening rivals as soon as possible” - not “we’re going to announce when we think it will open”. They never the reopening - it just opened. Still surprised with the sudden closure of scooby - when their maintenance closures are so frequent.

    I'd love to hear where exactly you heard this. it sounds like you just made it up. (for all the reasons already explained in the thread) Intamin are quite a large company. They have different 'classes' or 'grades' of rides. They don't just have one technician that knows everything about every ride they've ever made. The team that would need to work on Doomsday would be unlikely to know anything about Superman, etc etc. Also they're multi million dollar rides. A return flight from Europe to Aus is a drop in the maintenance ocean. Yes. Because the maintenance team working on the ride may not have been able to give a firm date when they'd be ready to sign off? Because they've been told 'get it open as fast as you can' and they've done that, but promising a date that they miss because something isn't ready looks bad, and saying it'll open on May 29th is stupid if its ready a week earlier? They frequently run two trains, and as a matter of fact were running two trains on the weekend. As for scooby, as has been pointed out numerous times - it was a forced closure and their time in the build pipeline is not yet here. There is no point gutting the ride now only to let the stage sit empty for x months. When the new parts arrive, bring in the machines, do it all in one go and save some cash. I tell you what - for someone who claims to be such an expert in how to run a theme park you have no fucking idea about how anything in a theme park actually works. You really aren't. What exactly are you referring to? Everything in this thread has made perfect sense except your whinging.
  26. DaptoFunlandGuy
    Lol. Which one of you are brave enough to admit being so, so wrong?
  27. DaptoFunlandGuy
    A friend sent me this on the weekend, and I lol'd.

    Which is funny, given the reaction the locals had to the VRTP proposal, can you imagine their reaction to a bigger player? Truthfully, Disney would never be possible due to the government funding that Disney would ask for. I do think Universal would be willing to partner on a project if there were a local willing to pay for it - ala Resorts World. So if someone like Gina Reinhart lobbied to build a 'precinct' that included a casino, entertainment precinct, hotels and a Universal park, I reckon she'd get the gaming licence and permission to build and boom. but thats a lot of big 'if's Sydney-born here. It's a Harbour. And plenty of people care, but Sydney as it stands is built out. Your options right now are either next to the second airport (and land has become stupidly expensive out there for obvious reasons) or you have to leave the basin - cross the mountains, or head down or up the coast. All of those options are very poor choices. Sydney had the makings. Wonderland was part government owned at one time, but the Taft split ultimately forced the sale and the rest is history. There is no longer an opportunity to build ground-up. that ship has sailed.
  29. Michelangelo started following Dreamworld Gold Rush Country General Store update

    They’re also renovating the facade of other buildings down Main Street. Didn’t get pics, but the facades next to the surf shop, opposite the Claw and currently behind a showbags truck are all fenced off and being renovated.
