Ride Coasters in VR!

<< < (2/2)

B-mac:
I think our park didn't get them because they feared the guests would try walking off with the $750 Samsung Galaxies that come with the VR headset. I should be a neat experience, want to see what its like at some point.

rjholla2003:
I'm sure there's some way to lock those phones into the headsets. I'd try it if I came across it, but I wouldn't hold out high hopes for it

WadeJ:
I'd say this is coming. We were simply skipped over this year since we're also getting a new coaster. They seem to have a decent plan in place for keeping these clean and the fact that you can choose whether or not to ride with one and therefore not waiting in the queue with other VR riders, I don't see the harm by adding it. Something I'll probably try once or twice and then go back to old school :).

Blackhand1001:
Kind of glad they didn't do it at our park. They will definitely slow down the queue line of any ride that has them regardless if you plan on using them.

Ogolo:
A warning straight from Screamscape.
I thought this coaster had crappy load times to begin with add some VR gear and it gets worse:


--- Quote ---Just a word of warning for anyone wanting to try to The New Revolution VR Coaster experience at Six Flags over Georgia. According to a reader who visited the other day, the addition to the VR gear has dramatically increased the length of time it takes to load and dispatch the trains. Our reader reports that they got in line where the 60 minute wait marker was, but the true wait time was nearly three times as long… as it took them 2 hours and 55 minutes to get to the front with three trains in operation.
