Yea, while I like Hagrid more overall at this point, the first ride on Spider-Man remains the most transcendent experience I've had in a theme park.
Nothing new fwiw
I hope now that work has wrapped up they can turn the fire effect back on. I’ve missed it.
How long has the effect been missing? It's kind of the best gag in the ride.
Everyone was sure the Revenge of the Mummy fire was never going to come back when it was off for an extended period of time, and then it did. I'd assume the same will happen here until proven otherwise.I hope it doesn't get replaced with a fog/projection mapping effect or something
Bursts of flames are a Universal staple
I'd be sad

USF in the 1990s was all about the FIRE!I thought that the opposite, i.e. Sprays of water, was a Universal staple.

I know its been off since October for 100% certainly. I think its a big missing hole that its off. I cant ride now and not feel something was missing. Universal we need it back.I believe since late last year. The easy guess is that it’s cost related and will be back when we’re on a bit more sturdy ground. While it’s a great effect and adds to the experience, its absence doesn’t “take away” from the ride - if that makes sense.
Come for the fire, stay for the squenchingI mean, who doesn't like fire? Probably the best UNI ride would involve both fire and water, hence why Spiderman is so successful.
To be a true Universal ride you must have fire, water and/or fogUSF in the 1990s was all about the FIRE!

The heat effects coming from the flame of Doc Ock's one tentetacle also hasn't been working for a few months now.
The fog in the sewer transition and when Doc Oc blasts you were at full blast when I rode two weekends agoAlso disappointing.
Are any of the non-water-spritz effects currently working?

Only missing effects were the heat and fire
