[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation

[Craig]

Can we not start going over the whole dye thing again please? It’s cropped up many, many, many times in this topic, and every single time we just go back and forth with the same old rumours.

Bottom line is there’s nothing concrete confirming any reason for it going, so let’s just leave it at that and avoid the repeat discussion.

What’s the plausibility of a preshow?
I don’t know if I want one, but what are you guys thoughts on that

I don't think a preshow will happen, but maybe a video in the queue/station similar to oblivion or galactica.

I would think unlikely. Nemesis is a very high throughput, a pre show could slow down the ride operations. I would like to see the RAP queue moved to merge down the bottom by the loop (so the exit becomes wheelchair guests only). This would still keep fastrack and RAP separate but save congestion at the exit

Might’ve been in on a previous post on this topic but I’ve missed too many posts to read them all, so here it is just in case

Going to interesting to see the comparison of the new support designs compared to the old given how the supports seem to be more larger.

 

[Burks]

Is that the brand new footer/support in the foliage? . . Or is the new one going to be further up the helix?

 

[tayspru]

looking at that photo, they really do need to strip back the foliage on the rock faces in the ride area. It should look barren and destroyed, not lush and green!

 

[Zeock]

I would hope that they would strip back the foliage after the track is all in place.

hear me out... if they burnt it I think it would look cool!

Try the RAMS or Environment statement for that.

Everytime I see one of these photos I think back to my sadistic games as a child playing rollercoaster tycoon, sending trains round an unfinished track to watch them fly off and explode.

We all did that whoever played RCT back in the day.

Actually, I miss the days of creating stuff on RCT3 when I was a young lad.

I'm actually playing RCT3 again, you can get it on Steam.

Off-topic though, sorry lol.

It's even better in Planet Coaster!

And there are some great recreations of Nemesis in the Steam Workshop.

I really hope they keep the whole context clues idea, you know, with the big rocks and hole in the ground

RCT3 is now considered "back in the day"?!?! It was released in 2004, not 1783!

That picture of it rising from the bottom of the helix into the zero g is pure coaster porn. That transition from intense G force's to being smashed high up in the air to the left and over the station, is the best part of the ride hands down for me. It also aged better than both the corkscrews.

I really miss Nemesis, more than I thought I would. I just can't be bothered to go up to Towers without it.

If it wasn't for TCAAM and Sub Terra opening this year, I would probably have been less bothered myself. Although Scarefest is now my annual visit, so hopefully there'll be some new mazes as well.

Oh man.... I spent ages on RCT3, but a whole recreation of Alton in it (Under the name 'Nemesis 2000' if anyone here was on the old ATA forums).

Grey/black primer added to the tail of the station and lots of structural bits removed from the inside, notably the metal light shields:

Here's the shields in place:
