2016: Air - Re-theme to VR Coaster - Galactica

I wonder if Air's new theme will be sort of like a prequel theme in the run up to SW8?
 
I'd love to see the nemesis creatures journey to earth. It would give a continuous nemesis theme throughout the area (at least until sw8, but that could follow the same theme). At the moment, unless you know the storyline, there is no continuation across the area, a space/nemesis theme to air would sort this, maybe (if done well) it will make the area feel more immersive. Done badly, and it will further split the areas theming contrast.
 
I thought blade and ripsaw and the nemesis nosh bus that used to be there were simply just scrap lobbed from the nemesis monster

I think that both blade and ripsaw are meant to be clearing the trees from the valley so that phalanx can attack nemesis.

"The Phalanx" never existed before Sub-standard opened. Ripsaw was supposed to be some kind of machine to decontaminate the workers who restrained Nemesis. This is why it used to end the cycle with "you have been detoxed by Ripsaw".
Blade was... something... construction-y... that was never really explained very well. Maybe the swinging blade cut the steel girders used to pin Nemy down? Who knows. But wasn't it a nice coincidence that it fits in the space left by Thunder Looper? :p

Yeah, that makes sense. I'm sure that blade is cutting through the valley to make way for army type people though.
 
Both Ripsaw and Blade are supposed to be pieces of shrapnel tossed from the ground by Nemesis.
 
I always thought that Blade and Ripsaw were supposed to be excavation equipment used in the digging which ended up unearthing the Nemesis creature.
 
As far as I'm aware the Phalanx only featured in the Nemesis comic until Sub Terra, and they were a very different organisation.

I'm pretty sure I read something once that suggested along with Ripsaw's purpose being decontamination that Blade was for cutting up chunks of Nemesis for scientific tests. I've no idea whether that has any proper basis in the park's backstory for Forbidden Valley or is just a fan theory. It's probably safest to assume that it was just meant to be scrap torn out of the ground when Nemesis was discovered and went nuts.
 
Maybe a theme yes like space but has you building up adrenaline in the queue line like Oblivion, Th13teen and Smiler.
So maybe a new soundtrack...

Well IMAscore are good at mixing old music and giving it a fresh twist... they could use their talents here so the Air music isn't completely lost.
 
Hi! :)

I am pretty new to the forums but I decided to have a go at creating my own version of some Air: Galactica marketing material in Photoshop.

I came up with something like this... :)
