Kings Island has made their coaster plan clear-and it's not what you think

[@jonny-b4954]

No way they're getting a T-Rex. I don't think they even have the trains developed for it. Let alone it's a prototype, so it wouldn't be cheap.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

The main point was that outpost 5 is being used for the coaster and also a raptor could fit I just bought up a Trex because of capacity

[@elementoftheride]

I think we are right, just because someone says there is an otsr in the adventure express queue doesn’t automatically mean that it’s a single rail going to outpost 5.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

I never said it's a single rail for sure I just know it's outpost 5 like I have said since the summer and I mentioned more expensive coasters and said they would have to wait till 2026 but they could get a raptor in 2025 and still replace vortex in a few years. It will make Kings Island fans shut up about getting a new coaster but also help ki still be able to replace vortex soon

[@quentenmajoor5861]

I like the idea of a Mack Extreme Spinner coming to the park.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

Sadly I think that's too expensive because cedar fair said they don't want to spend 30 million dollars on coasters anymore

[@richey0995]

Man I want an RMC hyper hybrid cuz that lift hill structure would look so cool in Kings Island’s skyline, they could probably even go for the hybrid height record and still not crack 15 million dollars. As for Cedar Fair not working with RMC I’m sick of hearing it, let’s not pretend like we know everything that goes on behind the scenes, maybe they really did stop working with RMC back then, but who’s to say they won’t 7 years later?

[@Outpost5Explorations]

Or maybe they still work together and no one looks at the important detail of a RMC less park that deserves a RMC in the cedar fair chain have not gotten a coaster since 2019 or 2020 meaning they were planned before or about 2018

[@billyost74]

The Son of Beast station is no longer on the park’s map on their app.

[@michaezell4607]

They're probably not getting a coaster in 26 since they're getting one in 24 for the kids area of the park.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

That does not reset the coaster clock and a kids coaster is not even really a coaster for a park because it cost as much as a flat ride so yes 2025 or 2026 Kings Island will add a massive coaster

[@classicamusementparks]

I have serious doubts that we see anything big in 2025.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

A raptor is not huge 5 to 7 million is small

[@pancake_2_]

@@Outpost5Explorations they are getting a coaster this year so maybe not anything in 2025

[@Outpost5Explorations]

@@pancake_2_ yeah but it's a cheap coaster so they will get something in 2025 it's either a cheap coaster such as a raptor or something for the water park but they will get something

@pancake_2_ kings island gets A coaster every year at this point

[@drewbaum]

Could we see a GCI Titan track? as we saw at Worlds of Fun last year, with Zambizi Zinger, they can make some pretty intense coasters. Also ZZ at WOF shows us Cedar Fair is not afraid to reuse names of defunct coasters. So could we see a GCI Titan son of beast reincarnate?

[@Outpost5Explorations]

Maybe but not next I just don't feel GCI is ready to do something like that

[@TheAlternateYT]

@@Outpost5Explorationsthey are ready, they spoke to my club at college and said they have pitched RMC type layouts but no park has taken them up on it! I personally don't think Ki will do it though.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

@@TheAlternateYTyeah but even if they are cedar fair will not buy the first and a reason GCI will not sell many of the RMC layouts because I don't think they can offer the price RMC does

[@TheJordan08]

Another W video, keep it up!

[@Outpost5Explorations]

Thanks

[@Country_Veteran_]

Hopefully a Vekoma Multi launch

[@Outpost5Explorations]

I have thought about them putting a raptor in outpost 5 then go multi launch in the vortex plot

[@Bnizzofashizzo]

Intamin baby

[@Shockwave_Thrill]

Good vid!!

[@Outpost5Explorations]

Thanks

[@jandrew1994]

RMC Raptor's suck. KI desperately needs an Intamin (probably intamin blitz) or RMC hybrid. Right now it's too much of a B&M park.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

I mean I wouldn't say they suck and ki can easily get one in 2025 and still replace vortex with a intamin vekoma or RMC in 2027 so it's just a cheap addition to the park to shut people up for a few years

[@JJJJ-he8bz]

If parks always did what enthusiasts wanted they would go bankrupt

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

@JJJJ-he8bz facts that's why I find six flags underrated people really be getting mad at them for not giving six flags America A RMC Ground Up Hyper Hybrid

[@CoasterGuy95]

Cedar fair (respectably) doesn’t work with rmc due to them providing awfully built products (not the rides themselves, the ones I’ve done besides JDC are awesome, personally not my thing though, I prefer sustained airtime to quick pops that rmc does) but their coasters are built horribly. There should be no reason Wonder Woman is having the issues it’s having currently. I just don’t see cf working with rmc again unless they can improve their build quality

[@Outpost5Explorations]

I'm pretty sure they still work together that's false

[@CoasterGuy95]

@@Outpost5Explorations in terms of replacement parts? Absolutely. But new products, I’m sorry man I just do not see it, between SV structural issues, rmc nearly breaking twisted timbers entire transfer table because they forgot about track expansion in heat, all the raptors issues they just most likely would prefer to work with someone else that can provide a equally intense but more reliable and better made product.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

@@CoasterGuy95 yeah but RMC has learned over time and newer raptors and hybrids just don't have the same problems as the ones from 2018 and ground up coaster since then have been fine. I think cedar fair will give them a second chance because you can see clear improvement

[@CoasterGuy95]

@@Outpost5Explorations stunt pilot at silverwood broke a wheel bogey, all the new raptors have rattles and their trains are built horribly. Wildcats revenge structural and footer issues keeping the coaster closed for 2 separate 2week long stretches last year, arie force over speeding its brakes. These incidents are all recent issues too, within the last 2 years, rmc still clearly has yet to improve on the quality of their ride hardware and rides (structural, footers). Rmc while they make good rides just cannot build good hardware. Additionally we’ve seen Intamin improve their products with reliability, but CF still hasn’t worked with them again. Which sucks yes but at the same time they’re very picky with who they work with, CF wants mainly high quality reliable coasters, and RMC simply does not provide them currently.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

@@CoasterGuy95 WCR footer was cause by ground hogs and not RMC themselves and all roller coasters have issues like are we forgetting pipeline over shot it's brakes and crashed Orion had trains collide on the lift hill every ride has issues in its opening years so you can't just look at those you have to look at year 2 or even 3 to decide if the ride works and for the raptor I have never heard jersey devil or wonder woman flight of courage being rough and the trains have some small issues that are being worked out so they will have everything fixed and ready to go by 2025 and we all know when the merger goes though RMC will work with these parks because six flags loves RMC

[@thebe_stone]

they don't really work with rmc or intamin anymore.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

They still work with RMC that's just a made up rumor and one day cedar fair will work with intamin again

[@drewbaum]

Great idea but Cedar Fair doesn’t work with RMC anymore and that’s rumored to continue into the six flags era.

[@Outpost5Explorations]

That cedar fair RMC thing is fake 😂 the so called evidence doesn't even look at Major details

[@WapoStudios]

@@Outpost5Explorationsit’s not fake, you’re coping.

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

Honestly I think the next coaster at Kings island would be a b&m dive or S&S Freespin

[@Outpost5Explorations]

I have thought about a dive but it's my least favorite idea
