New Newsletter 3/26/07 ~ More Updates, Changes, And Surprises On Their Way To VMK!

[Maleficent2]

All I can say is WOW!!!!!!!!

 

[CCoasterRyan]

WOW.

This newsletter has my attention and I can't wait for the changes. It's funny though, it has took this long for all the good, useful changes to finally come...I still miss the old days though. Good times!

Until then, I guess we are all just going to have to wait and see what suprises are to come

 

[VickiV]

I think that the new pieces may come in phases and not all at on time. Look at the down time with some of the minor changes that have occurred. I think some might just end up as host prizes too.

Since Sword in the Stone is next to the carousel, perhaps the new room will be Mary Poppins. I haven't seen the Sword in the Stone movie in so long, I can't remember what is in it, but maybe it will be something for all the guys, like another kind of castle or forest of some type, maybe something along the lines of Maleficents fortress, but different.

Oh my did you say Winnie the Pooh??? That's my vote for sure!!!!
Lady

the Sword in the Stone at the parks is in front of the Carrousel and is part of a show where a lucky guest gets to try and pull the sword out. Not sure what it means to the game but sounds awesome.

I love the idea of the Dark rides! wondering which will be the other they announce. Mr Toad? Winnie the Pooh?

Clearing a room awesome, but will wait to make sure there is no bugs before playing with that button

Thank you Yavn and VMK staff for all of the upcoming changes! Can't wait to see them actually in the game

Hi Not sure this helps much but I enlarged the picture:

Bug

As said in the newsletter, some items will move when a player passes by them. Who's ready to get hit in the head with the queen's croquet stick!?

From looking at it, it seems that the track could also be used for the Snow White Ride, Pinoccio Ride, and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Perhaps one of those would be for the other vehicle because each of those rides run on the same type of track.

I LOVE those trees. Anyone notice how one of them is changing colors? AWESOME! And dont forget those flowers for those of us that want to start a garden.

And finally... a dream came true - We have arches to put rides under!

But, does anyone feel like that background to that room is kinda tacky? It looks like a Hollywood movie set.

As for the other stuff, the clear room button seems like a lifesaver.

The new hairstyles scare me The Alice hair is bigger and puffier (cough to Fox.he) than the other hair. The boy's hair is pulling me into wonder. But seriously - does that really look like Troy?

I think it's pretty cool, actually. It shows an attention to detail, since when you ride the real dark rides you can see some of the lights and stuff. Gives it more of a dark ride "feel" rather than the usual idealized outdoor environments that you see all around VMK.

The bridge is cool

That's how it really looks in the attractions though, with the "stage lights" and fake backgrounds ..

 

[Imagine Ears]

Sounds like the normal pieces(straight, uphill, downhill, turns, etc.) will all be the same, the only difference being the start.

 

[PrinceLegolas]

Right on Cap!! You said exactly what I was thinking, except I also thought that with the room being so plain it can be used for any of the dark rides!

 

[bevgray]

I agree that the "other" dark ride might be Peter Pan due to the "flying" hints. Peter Pan's Flight is a classic Disneyland/Disney World dark ride in which you fly in a pirate ship over London and then on to Neverland. Oooo! Very exciting!

 

[jazstar87]

i think that for those who thought the kingdom lost its mojo...they just brought it back big time ;D

Heh, I am not that excited...just more time for us to spend playing games to actually buy this stuff and I am going to agree that the 120 items is not all for our use.

so since it is flying month or something...after almost a year or two of it being first seen, Is flying carpet magic actually going to be released?

I also think that vmk did bring back the mojo! This is the best and coolest newsletter for me in a long time! Right on vmk

I also think (and so hope it is) the other ride might be Peter Pan because of the hints also. On the claneder it has things on there to do with flying. So in thinking ...I was just thinking that if it is Peter Pan..well that could be a way to bring in Pirates for the theme month of May. Which the new Pirate movie is coming out!! Not of course I don't know....it its just my thoughts..but it sure would be cool? !! I sure hope so!

Seriously, you just need to let that one go. By this point it should be obvious to everybody that Flying Carpet had more bugs in it than a frat house kitchen. We are never going to see that item in the game. It's time to just move on.

Uh.. yeah. It had more bugs that a frat house kitchen, but they've probably worked most of them out by now..

 

[HeDiedxILive]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!



(Does anyone else see grass carpets??????)




AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

 

[bevgray]

What I never have understood is why, if flying carpet was so buggy, were they able to release bat magic? I would think the motion and the code to support it would be similar.

 

[BellHop58]

So I wonder if there is going to be another ride competition. I would love to create a ride with those pieces! Too cool.

 

[Imagine Ears]

Could be something to do with placing the character on top of the moving object, and putting it in a sitting position.

 

[cat_herder]

Very cool! I love dark rides!

I just need to make sure I stock up on the furniture that's currently out.
Like Doc, I believe that if we're getting a lot of new furniture, something will go. I'm sure that there won't be a release of all those pieces, but I'm sure that we'll be getting quite a bit.

Can't wait to see everything!

I was thinking the same thing about the current fantasyland furniture. I have small collection of it, but I will be adding to it.

I lucked out when they took the tiki furniture away because about 6 months earlier I had decided to try to collect at least 5-10 of everything when they took away 1-2 things earlier.
