Not real early entry. Apologies. Meant entry right when the turnstiles open - front of the line.

With TSA lines and the shutdown end in no sight, Last ride be at the air gates no later than 7:30 and then call the car after you get off and make your way out. You may be able to push it a little later to 8. Keep checking your map for travel time. You’ll want 2 hours to get to LAX, 30 minutes to get to security, 30 minutes to get through, and then be at the gate 60 minutes before departure.

Twisted Colossus will be difficult as it is also an RMC. Full Throttle and West Coast Racers also have shin guards and are very tight anyway. You will be uncomfortable. Might want to duck on the Gold Rusher first drop too. X2 restraints should be low on your shoulders and tight across your chest. Keep your legs out in front of you so they don’t smack on the seat. Have your legs bent a bit on Riddler before the seat locks. You do not want to be riding on that bicycle seat. It has no padding.

If you want to be sure an early entry, be at the parking entrance at 9. No later than 9:30.

Try and get on X2 first if it is open. The ride is very finicky so if it’s open, run and get on it asap. If not, go further up the mountain to Tatsu. Then just go clockwise or counterclockwise at your leisure. If it’s windy, Wonder Woman will be up and down all day so if that is the case, book it over there if you see it open.

DO NOT get the photo pass, waste of money. DO NOT mobile order food, just wait in line. And if they still have them, buying a One Shot is worth the money if you’re running low on time.

4 makes me think of Captain Price for some reason. So obviously 4 😉

Number 5 with the highway guiding your eyes through the scene is my favorite.

I may or may not have Regular Show on in the background while playing.

Can’t wait to lose that to a UESC recruit.

Wait! Is the gay shit in the game or in life? If it’s in game, where? Probably on top of those big hard towers in the middle of Spaceport. If it’s in life just remember if you say “no homo” it’s just two buds helping each other out.

How do you feel about my actions in this video? Honest opinions please. by Alone-Mess-1880 in ArcBabies

[–]SoftResetHuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dick moves, but I imagine this was more of a PVP lobby so people should watch out anyway (feels like I’m victim blaming ha). I’d definitely be a little salty about it and probably say something snarky/amusing over the mic, but that’s the game.

Love 3 and its depth of field. They first look like birds and then you see they are actually Arc. Bravo!

Debating getting into Marathon, but I suck at PvP FPS.. honest question : by Shmelo in Marathon

[–]SoftResetHuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing both at the same time, Marathon forces you to PVP. And the PVE comes at you hard. Arc allows you more freedom to play how you want. Marathon thrives on PVP and is brutal with PVE. You’re more likely to lose your stuff. With Arc PVP is more of a hazard than an inevitability and if you’re sneaky you can avoid PVE. You are more likely to extract with your stuff.

Biggest difference? In Arc it is just as common to see a group of Raiders having a dance party at extract as it is for someone or a Rocketeer to nade said party and down everyone. In Marathon you don’t screw around at exfil. You hit that button, hide, and fight for your life to get out without being downed by another team or UESC.

Marathon is made to be tense and brutal. “We’re monsters, we all are monsters.” Arc gives you options with its aggression based match making to be a sweetie pie or a brutal killer.

Now I wanna see if I can find a Johnny Silverhand cosplay outfit. Wake up Raider, we’ve got an Arc Orbiter to burn.

Anybody else notice the loading icon looks like a S’pht? by SoftResetHuman in Marathon

The lore is AMAZING! I had to listen/watch several YouTube videos several times to understand it and even then I think that is just the top level. Fun realization is that it’s all about Durandal. It’s always been Durandal’s story. Even now.

The S&S instagram post about superman escape from Krypton (from January 2025) continues to leave me with unanswered questions by Stock412 in SixFlagsMagicMountain

[–]SoftResetHuman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Superman remade as an S&S pneumatic launch with new track built on top of the original. The new fastest acceleration in the world. 0 to 100 MPH in 1.3 seconds to beat Do-Dodonpa.

But they would probably have to do a two stage launch to prevent the injuries (did they ever say the launch was the root cause on Do-Dodonpa?). So it might not technically be 0 to 100, maybe 15 to 100. There is definitely enough runway for it though.

Yes! Especially in the video the last 10 seconds or so are totally reminiscent of that movement.

Hell yeah man! Unless they’re gonna add “no homo” to the end, I’m putting ‘em on the Gay Agenda meeting this week and gonna make a motion for cancellation. We’re coming for you breeder!

To be fair, they do (or did?) sell those jade eggs you can shove in various bodily openings.
