I've wanted to see a Kuka like this for a long time. Could make for an even more dynamic experience than FJ currently.

New blog post says the ride is opening in Spring 2018 and is going to feature the virtual queue Universal Orlando Close Up | New Fast & Furious – Supercharged and On-Site Hotel Details Announced - Close Up

ahahhaha..

Just about a week ago we were celebrating the opening of our new water theme park, Universal’s Volcano Bay. It was a memorable couple of days where we celebrated the next chapter in Universal Orlando Resort’s evolution.

sure was memorable..

Those should have been the ride vehicles, I don't want to feel like I'm in some bus or tram.

It was said, by Sheeny (and ParkscopeNick apparently) that they heard more of that the ride has changed, with it more similar towards Spiderman now in-terms of tech.

So probably more 4d effects?

No way? I could get down with the Spiderman tech, how credible are they?

Sheehy* has been an individual that has been reliable about a lot of things. He's also been seen on the forums through his twitter every once and a while.

As for ParkscopeNick, I'll let @Joe answer of if he's valid or not.

*This is me acknowledging that I screwed up his name.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

[Viator]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

I was refering to that Nick is apart of your crew, of Parkscope.

I may of screwed up my wording, but I meant to say that Nick was apart of the Parkscope crew, that includes yourself.

I have no idea what you're talking about in regards to F&F being more Spider-Man like and that discussion between Sheehy and Nick.

Yep. Unless something dramatic has changed, they are massively overselling it with just those few phrases.

*Cough* Water Theme Park *Cough*

That is fine with me. It will be like Disaster, a once in a long while ride that eats other people not affecting my park experience one bit.

A people eater like disaster is fine for no IP or a an IP that suits this style.
This ride system on Fast and Furious is a waste!
The fact that this ride will not be fast or furious and you're on a bloody bus/tram is tantamount to them making a Jurassic Park ride with no dinosaurs!

Well it is being towed fast through the highway and city streets like that sequence with them pulling the safe, so will still appear to be fast, even though it's not really. In story, we will be going fast I mean.

I do agree though, much more could've been accomplished for this IP.

Why no rollercoaster?! Tourists are going to think this ride is a roller coaster!

That would make it three indoor coasters in a row though, Mummy and Gringotts on either side.

Something akin to Radiator Springs Racers would make the most sense to me. But with Mario Kart on the way, I could see how that might end up being too similar as well.

However, anything's better than another Skull Island type ride adapted from Hollywood's tram tour so I wouldn't complain either way.

 

[P@n!K_Sw1tC#]

Honestly, I don't think people would mind another roller coaster - as track layout can drastically differentiate one ride from another. Something like the slalom fishtail coaster in Dubai would of worked wonders for an IP like F&F. But alas, we'll get a full circuit tram ride which feels more like a sick joke than a major E-ticket. Can we consider 2018 to be an off year for UO?

True, but families and some adults hear "coaster" and can't/won't ride at all. Even with Gringotts being as tame as it is I know many folks stay away because of the fact that it's technically a coaster. The park needs more all ages attractions.

I'm more excited for Aventura than the new ride in 2018.

So I guess that the way the virtual queue works is that suddenly there will be a call for us to board our bus.

Maybe there will be a bus timetable and you're given a bus ticket similar to Fallon.
