Springfield Expansion

[pat_naughty05]

See, I'll be visiting here very very close to my 21st in just a few months... you can understand my excitement when you say such things :happy:

If Moe's is opened by that point, you'll have some pretty great bar options on UO property. Moe's, the Hog's Head, Finnegan's, CityWalk in general... be sure to designate a driver or get a cab if you aren't staying on property.

That would be a memorable 21st birthday lol You can be like I got wasted at MOE'S on my 21st birthday!

Don't worry, I plan on the full bar hopping experience, making sure to end the night on the floor of the Hogshead, drunkenly crying over how "It's all over, man! It's all over" and belting out the notes to HP's theme... but no. I'm a pretty responsible drinker. Will be a pretty responsible drinker. :look: I always play it safe. Dangerous drunk people annoy me as well as entertain me.

EDIT: But I will be having at least, like, three Flaming Moes.

Are we expected to get any more little Sledge-Homer-like carnie games? As tacky as it is, I think it fits well into the Krustyland theme.

There will be more tacky games, kiosks, and photo ops in the Krusty sub land.

See, I can only anticipate bad reception toward this. And while I can see reason for it (it is a bunch of tacky games) I kind of love it. Let's face it, if Krustyland was an actual, legitimate theme park in itself it would be packed to the brim with tacky sideshow games. In it's own way, this is good to hear HTF :thumbs:

Can't wait to see what else is in store! Bring on Springfield! Bring on Phase 2! all exciting vibes here!

Not exactly ideal. Sounds like the area will be cluttered

Soon to be joined by the Leaky Cauldron, I assume they'll have alcohol there?

If they're throwing in a bunch of new stuff, I'll hope that they arrange it in some way that wont be too "in the way" for guests passing through. Besides, aren't "Carnival" style theme parks supposed to be as cluttered as much as they can get it?

 

[Teebin]

Funny that I used to avoid the Amity area as I found it tacky, but I enjoyed the rest of the park. Seems now I will be swapping sides!

Also noticed they posted jobs now externally on the main career site. Still listed as a "New Themed Restaurant"

Plus the satire of it works in moderation. If it's actually all over the place and in your face, it loses the comedic effect and just becomes irritating. Of course we have to wait and see, but it sounds bad on paper

 

[Hatetofly]

I'm still not understanding how someone asking me if there will be more and me saying yes there will be automatically makes it cluttered. It won't be btw...

The placement of Sledge Homer is probably leading people down that path. It's not exactly tucked away, or blended in at the moment. Plus tacky is a scary word

I would expect a pretty big cleared path for passerby. Otherwise It'd be a safety hazard

From yesterday . . .

 

[Mr.Auror]

Another awesome update, Bob. You're on the ball today, man. Great job!

Because the area is already game overload.

Yeah Carnivals generally are :thumbs:

As jt said, the satire works in moderation. When overloaded, I just feel it will become an ugly annoyance. I don't care how true to a real carnival or Krustyland it is, Universal isn't a carnival. There's a happy medium that should be met.
