Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

[Parkscope Joe]

This is the area in which I'm hoping there's still some significant planting yet to come. I'd like to see them try to visually blunt the sharp corner of that building (as it juts out towards the main path) with some foliage.

I mean there's clearly a MASSIVE planter there...

I couldn't make that out, so that's good to hear.

It's getting pretty clear the waterfront on the left won't have that much more foliage but I think they're still planning on the right.

 

[GAcoaster]

I wonder if they've had any human riders yet?

I'm not sure we're talking about the same area. This is the section I meant:

Yeah we're on the same page, I did a nonsequitur about the general landscaping. My bad.

Thought I think you'll be disappointed as I think that turn will remain "exposed" for guests to view. The building will go behind plants.

Did someone really leave a door open behind that kiosk?? First the weak perimeter fence, now this ARE THEY TRYING TO LET THE ANIMALS OUT???

 

[Scott W.]

I wonder if they've had any human riders yet?

I think so.

 

[MartyMcFly]

I think so.

hmm we haven’t even seen the big water bottles ride yet, surely that has to happen before humans

 

[Parkscope Joe]

People have ridden it.

As long as they do something about the building, I'll live with the rest.

There should be foliage around the turn, but mostly low so you can still see it.

As long as they do something about the building, I'll live with the rest.

There should be a lot around the first scene building when it’s all done. Like they have on the right side of the merch kiosk also on other side.

Is there still a water feature planned for the front of the Discovery Center/Entrance to the coaster?

Doesn’t look like it. Looks like it’s designed as an enclosure with fences.

Few things compare to the feeling of seeing this coaster run in person. Universal is embracing outdoor kinetics a lot at IOA.

Also I’m kind of wondering about how the queue storyline will play out. Kinda hope they nerd out and explain the concurrent Park/Land situation. After all this IS technically another park on Isla Aventura, not Isla Nublar, right?

Pretty sure once you enter the new coaster’s queue you’re in the actual Jurassic World from the movie. (Same with Raptor Encounter.) The rest of the land is same as it always was.

In the first room in the queue, they should have videos of Masrani and Claire basically doing a corporate sales pitch for the other Jurassic Resorts around the world. SYNERGY!

"In celebration of the opening of our spectacular new Jurassic World Isla Nublar Resort, all our Jurassic Resorts around the world are receiving gifts!

Our Jurassic World La Brea Resort is receiving an all new river adventure attraction with a spectacular underwater peek into the new Mossasaur aquarium. Our Jurassic Park Osaka Resort just opened the all new JW Flying Dinosaur flying coaster. Our Jurassic Park Sentosa Resort is receiving the world's most immersive quick service kiosk where guests can take on the super spicy VelociChurro or the massive Churrosaurs Rex.

So I am thrilled that you here at the Jurassic Park Isla Aventura Resort are about to experience what I think is the most exciting attraction we have ever created. The Jurassic World Velocicoaster!"
