Jurassic World VelociCoaster - General Discussion

[Cup_Of_Coffee]

My friend is on vacation with his boyfriend and he just texted me it’s closed, it was on the top of the list for their attractions for their 5 day trip, hopefully opens again before end of the weekend. It’s their first UOR trip!

Also, I think it is worth taking statements alluding to and comparing to other serious coaster incidents with a truck load of salt. Even people I know who opened the ride have cautioned that these sorts of rumours are by no means confirmed to even them

Yeah, it's for sure not anywhere near that level of severe at this point...

Something that needs to be looked at? Yes. Something THAT bad... no.

Unsurprisingly, it's confirmed closed again today.

I do think Universal should be being a bit more upfront here - the official line seems to be that we should be keeping an eye on the app for closures, but if they know it's going to be down for multiple days they should be making this clear.

Their current strategy comes across as disingenuous.

Good points

You're not wrong. The issue is they don't really have a known day as this wasn't planned downtime - so they don't want to underestimate it. Imagine telling someone 3 days, and it opens in 5. It's a double-edged sword. As of now, they can only promise the day of.

What if I told you it was cycling this morning?

I dont know man, every time I’ve been on it there’s a disgruntled TM on the TV right before the loading station warning everybody how dangerous the ride is.

Supposedly opening tomorrow after test runs today?

The app does say opening at 09.00am, not sure if it said that over the last few days.

Imagine if this opened after a few days after people convinced themselves it would be months lmao

Still not out of the woods yet. Have to see how reliable things are for the next little bit.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

It's down for the foreseeable future. Trying to get a handle on what's wrong though

Didn't know the foreseeable future meant 3 days lol

Weeks at most not months.

Wow these past few weeks flew by

Seems it caused UO to delete the UOAP Facebook group.

Cmon now.

VC opening back up that fast and this?

This is a way better result than I could have ever anticipated.

 

[Mad Dog]

Perhaps the initial fan reaction was an 'over reaction' to what the actual issue was.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

Cmon now.

Just pointing out how "reputable insiders" can exaggerate a situation beyond what they know at the moment. I'm not discrediting anyone, but odd to claim insider info (or the ability to get info) on everything and post vague statements.

Good on Universal to get it up and running as soon as possible. Kong entry gates on the other hand...

 

[Tbad556]

nevermind. not worth it.
