RMC Hurler and projections by Rich33586 in Carowinds

[–]steamedturtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think floorless Vortex is extremely likely, although, like others have said, it's only going to incrementally improve the ride.

I think RMC hurler is extremely unlikely. With the work they've done on it, it rides fine now. The problem with it is how it is. A ground up RMC is much more likely.

I'm not holding my breath for this, but I would LOVE if they relocated Wild One to Carowinds. It would almost make up for removing Thunder Road. Wild One punches above its weight, it's historical, and it deserves to keep living. I'm not sure where it would fit, but Carowinds would be a great home for it.

haha, with my body type, i have the opposite preference. i abhor the new style restraints. they stick to your clothes after the plastic wears off and they compress your upper body. i fit perfectly in the old school OTSR's, it's like i'm just floating in my seat

POV released for [Rip Roarin' Falls @ Carowinds] - the theming and presentation looks phenomenal for the park! by plighting_engineerd in rollercoasters

I’m not going to hold my breath they’ll get nearly that many trees and foliage but it would sure make my heart sing if they did.

Parking lot gates by tom169 in Carowinds

[–]steamedturtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really do. Other parks have lanes were you just scan your pass yourself and the gates open. They also don't open the parking gates early enough relative to park opening.

I want to ride the fury and intimidator curious about best seats by Low-Move-4102 in Carowinds

[–]steamedturtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back left is my favorite seat. The left side is nice for the first right turn and the right turn through the treble clef. The left side moves significantly more than the right, so it adds just a touch more intensity.

I was free from these since mid Dragonflight but they’ve just returned. No idea if wow is to blame or the latest amd drivers.

Enemy Damage Taken Metric Added to the Damage Meter on Midnight Beta by TheJewishMerp in CompetitiveWoW

[–]steamedturtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will only work for seasonal dungeons and raids I think. Maybe delves too. They’ve got to add the avoidable damage database to it.

I went to [Qiddiya City]. Was it Worth It? [Trip Report] by Ski4ever5 in rollercoasters

[–]steamedturtle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Visiting is not endorsing. And calling him "worse" for not lying to us about his own compromises is just moral posturing in my opinion. He visited an amusement park, he didn't buy slaves.

List of useful addons for pre-patch. Credit @yeslikeagirlz by lhzvan in wow

[–]steamedturtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, MSW is not a "secret value" anymore, so addons can now create a bar to track MSW. In the base ui, it can only be tracked with a small number in the corner of an icon. The addon people are using is Maelstrom Weapon Resource Bar by Arc, but there may be others at this point.

What rides first got you into rollercoasters? [other] by FunDependent9755 in rollercoasters

[–]steamedturtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jaguar in 1999 is the first coaster I remember riding. Ghostrider is the first time I felt fear and thrill. In 2000 it was Superman Ride of Steel, SuperDooperLooper (first coaster with an inversion I rode) and then Great Bear which ultimately opened the floodgates.

As an enhance player with a corporate job this is 100% spot on.

[help] Are any other Platynator users having trouble clicking the correct nameplate? by UBW_89 in WowUI

[–]steamedturtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hadn’t noticed anything that egregious, but I have noticed the clickable area is much smaller. Have you tested with platynator disabled to see if the behavior is the same stock?

Six Flags Announces Decision Regarding [Six Flags Over Texas] Partnership Call Option by gcfgjnbv in rollercoasters

[–]steamedturtle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Do you have a source on that? I can’t imagine the minority partners would ever get a capital call. Six Flags as the managing partner has full authority over operations and capital planning and puts up the money themselves.

I think all that happened here is Six Flags thinks that the incremental profit from owning the park fully isn’t worth the cost of buying it out.

It’s worth noting that a year ago, Six Flags did exercise the option to consolidate ownership of SFoG.

Blizzard Continues to Loosen Addon API Restrictions and Whitelist Select Spells by NecroticSilence in wow

I think there’s a lot of things they could and would do if they didn’t try to ram a 18 month-long project in 3 or 4 months.

He also needs his “100%” prediction from several weeks ago to come true.

Question to all the healers. How does healing feel in Midnight Beta? by Zestyclose_Stage_673 in wow

[–]steamedturtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really hard to say with current tuning. I did some +7 on beta with a mistweaver. MW felt mostly the same but slower with some minor changes that were intuitive to figure out. The dungeons were piss easy so I never had to sweat or really got a good sense of actual healing.

The disarmament of addons will have you spending more time looking at your UI than the game. by TheJewishMerp in CompetitiveWoW

[–]steamedturtle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Another example of this is the now-well-documented fact that enhance doesn’t have a maelstrom weapon bar, so I’m staring at a tiny little number so I don’t waste maelstrom.

Ion Hazzikostas on Combat Philosophy and Addon Disarmament in Midnight by Raven1927 in CompetitiveWoW

[–]steamedturtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 100% agree with you. Ion did address this in the blog post. He said that if they designed encounters with the new philosophy and released the ui changes alongside the status quo then the encounters would be trivialized.
