It’s a great concept, but the patents definitely give a ThrillVille vibe of impossibility lol

So I guess we’re back to this for a ride vehicle, especially if it’s based on BotW/ToK which I’m pretty certain it will be since it’s a nice mix of realism and stylistic fantasy that’s unlike other properties in the park.

Wouldn’t that be Spider-Man/Transformers? The SCOOP is basically an updated Indy Jeep right?

Full sets here and probably a bit of a wider vehicle. They can be different.

I'd don’t hate the idea of a boat ride, I just think it needs a little extra if that’s what it was. Something like Shanghai’s pirates rather than just normal Pirates. Or like a… boat scoop? Lol

They can pull a Maelstrom and just have a backwards drop lol

If the ride is filled with scenic elements and dramatic sets, no need for too many "thrilling" elements.

Boat SCOOP is my new favorite yet-to-be-and-probably-won't-ever-be developed ride vehicle.
Oh, get down, turn around, go to town, boat scoopin' boogie.

Somebody in the game will make a cooler vehicle than this six hours after the game releases.

Unfortunately Universal canceled anything even remotely related to suspended ride systems, and me having this knowledge precludes me from wishing it into existence on the pod I’m afraid lol

Do you think Nintendo could force their hand to re-think a ride system? Whether it’s this or it’s a trackless system which have also rumored to be cancelled throughout the resorts… I wonder if Nintendo has the power to change their thinking.

Would you say they... suspended any exploration of suspended ride systems?

that makes sense; after all, these systems were ... hanging ... by a thread for quite some time.

They heard how the E.T. Adventure vehicles sound like someone crushing a bag of graham crackers coming into unload and got scared away.

Well I bet they were super pissed at the last suspended ride they just built, similar to how they were super pissed with Kong and canceled all trackless stuff.

Expensive to build and maintain. And a pain to evacuate.

Totally blanking right now, what was the last suspended ride they built?

Altogether doesn't shock me that this is scrapped after JWA and MoM suspended were scrapped. While this concept is so so cool, it definitely doesn't sound practical. And considering the brutal amount of downtime that basically all trackless rides face, I'm totally okay with them not re-exploring that avenue any time soon
