Things ain’t ready yet. I don’t want to say the words delayed, or complications, because I’m not entirely sure of the situation. But my opinion, my opinion, is that at this point we’d be lucky to get softs the week of. But that’s not something I really want to say, because next thing you know there’s a ton of articles coming out quoting me. So, I’ll just keep it at “oh no”.I dont know trying to find out, we're being trolled by our very own today, wish they wouldn't have said anything:_:
Again- maybe, maybe not.
Why run softs now and then try to fix the issue later retroactively after opening while trying to increase capacity? For what purpose?
This is literally why they run the trains for weeks, increase load, etc. It's not some quota that they have to run 100 cycles before they're allowed to start softs. No; they run dummies, they run water bags, they run empty, they increase capacity, they increase the amount of trains, etc etc because each change to get it to full operating speed can create issues. And the plan is always to diagnose and correct those issues prior to open.
Again, I don't know what the issue is in particular; but to think there wasn't going to be an issue as they increased the stress-load closer to actual capacity is incredibly naive.
They are aiming for their June 13th opening, not some hopeful and mythical May 24th date for softs (which wouldn't have even happened anyway as they haven't even turned over operations). If softs happened, that's just a better benefit to both us to have earlier rides and them to expand testing and adjustments. But they put this wiggle room in specifically for these reasons which are known to happen regularly.

Honestly, if I knew more, I’d share it.
As Joe has said, I’m sure they’ll have the ride open on time, anything else prior is unplanned, and might be a nice surprise.
(I was kinda fishing to see if anyone else heard anything, sorry.)That's why it was probably best not to allude to anything until the situation became clear... :read:

Is there an option for this ride if both drop tracks are down?
Even if the track is not ready Universal’s PR is lol

That centaur looks so lifelike it won't even have to move much to have an amazing effect.So just saw that the centaur is an animatronic. Should be a pretty cool scene after the free fall. Still wondering how the pixies will work?..
I’m gonna go with no.So is there any point of heading over there today for a potential soft opening?

Based off of the tidbits we've seen, I think the pixies may just be stationary objects we see throughout the ride. Don't quote me on that, but I don't see them flying around.So just saw that the centaur is an animatronic. Should be a pretty cool scene after the free fall.
