Universal's Epic Universe General News & Discussion

[Magic-Man]

What a difference a year makes. Last year the forum exploded with Epic like discussions. Lots of fun threads. Unfortunately, like with past land/attraction openings, interest wanes once the anticipated new stuff no longer has that new car/attraction scent. Now, the forum is often crickets, with a smattering of interest in the upcoming HHN and some new Disney stuff, but not a lot of anything else.

C'mon people, let's talk about the Epic plusses and minuses. Most everyone here that comments have been to Epic. There must be more stories and experiences that we haven't heard about. So many other theme park forums have faded away, or their discussions greatly curtailed. We need to keep this one fresh and vibrant so that it doesn't suffer the same fates of the disappearing forum sites/discussions.

Long live IU !!!

I'm more surprised that the Fast and Furious Hollywood Drift USF thread barely gets any new posts. I could have sworn the Velocicoaster thread was far more active!

Probably mostly capacity, since they screwed that up. If capacity was adequate, they'd probably would have had an AP option months ago. According to many, Universal has been surveying AP holders, but supposedly they've been indicating they want WDW level prices (4 parks there) for a limited restrictive access.

Just to keep the discussion honest, based on everything I saw, double the price was for a 3-park AP seemingly good-all-year (subject to blackout dates, which technically WDW still has as well). The implication for the discount tickets was that they'd be included at roughly current AP prices.

Thanks for the clarification. Though some of the scenarios I read from others had mucho restrictions and blackout dates. Universal may have circulated different based surveys to gauge interest. But still an overpriced Universal objective if these are true. WDW with four full parks, one of which is the super popular (with lots of attractions) Magic Kingdom, as opposed to Universal Orlando with three parks. Really pure nonsense overvaluing Epic. Epic is a beautiful park, but incomplete at this point in time.
