Yes there's a bus that will take you to Epic from city walk and vice versa
They really need to figure this out.
I didn't find it as intense, however it is definitely faster which pushes you back into your seat more, and some people may interpret that as being more intense. Velocicoaster is still, by far, my favorite coaster. My problem with Stardust Racers is with the extra speed and change in directions, I felt like the lap bar kept jamming me in the abdomen to the point where it hurt. Like riding in a car with a seatbelt and your constantly going at high speed, and then breaking hard and the belt jams into your stomach to keep you from flying out. IMO, it was uncomfortable.
Oh, interesting! We were wondering what the issue was. I know Tiana's Bayou Adventure had sensor related problems, and I was wondering if that was becoming more of an industry problem. We were instructed upon boarding to not cross your legs and I thought that was an unusual instruction.
About time the mods are cracking down on those posts. Getting tiresome seeing 10 posts made every day begging for spots and willing to payJust as a follow up from my previous post, went back and seems like more people are posting about the extra VQ spot situation and it’s gotten to the point where mods have started scrubbing threads. In this case someone had *eight* spots, no mention that they had extras, and yet this happened.

Judge away! I realize it's crazy, lol. This trip (mostly Disney with one day at Universal) was a fluke. I was supposed to be in Spain with my husband but he's too busy, so I asked my daughter if she could get time off, and we decided to go to WDW. We did Disney many times when kids were little, and Universal once. Never planned on going back, and it's highly doubtful we'll go back again (maybe if we have grandkids?) I already had Park to Park tix to USF/IOA with EP for a day, then Epic tix became available so I jumped on it without even thinking about it! Hoping 6 hours will be enough to walk around and get a few rides in. The only ones I'm interested in are Curse of the Werewolf, Mine Cart, Wing Glider, Monsters Unchained and HP (I realize this one likely won't happen).
Speaking as someone who normally doesn't enter a park until later in the day, but was at Epic from 11am to 9pm during a preview day, I think you’ll be fine! I didn't intend to get to Epic until 1ish, but my hotel room wasn’t ready and I knew I’d need lunch, so I just went to Epic earlier than planned. I really didn't do much from 11a to 2p: strolled a couple lands, ate a long, leisurely lunch, and saw Cirque Arcanus. Everything else I experienced from 2p-ish to closing: Yoshi, Werewolf, Monsters, Wing Gliders, Mario Kart, a long dinner, casting spells, and lots of looking around. Had I gotten into the VQ for HP, I’d have had time for it. I opted not to do them, but wait times were low enough that I could have done Stardust and the Carousel multiple times, too. My advice is just keep an eye on wait times and bounce when they drop dramatically, especially toward evening.
going in a few weeks (if you're after June 19th, I will let you know).
I don't think so...Ear Scouts did a video on this. In his video he mentioned it actually opened up before the window was supposed to. There are a lot of flaws with the current system for VQ's. I'd argue theres been a good bit of flaws with the entire roll out of this park, but thats a topic for another day.
I think as the tech gets more intricate, more problems are occurring as well on top of the sensor issues. I read an article the other day of someone who has ridden Monsters Unchained a handful of times, and they said the ride is outstanding, but they've yet to ride it, with all of the animatronics working properly. Reminds me a lot of the Rise of Resistance issues.
I had so much fun on this ride.
It's great that Epic has different coasters for everyone. I love Donkey Kong while some of my relatives though it was too rough for their joints. On the other hand, I couldn't wait to get off Werewolf while they thought it was a blast riding sideways. Our kids didn't go on this trip due to school, but I know they will love Hiccups and Stardust.
I can’t do the big coasters but I can ride Big Thunder. Would you say this is about the same intensity of BTM?
I love this question.
Excellent! Those I can do.
Anyone who can handle BTM should be fine on Wing Gliders, which feels a little faster to me, but much more smooth. Werewolf I also found to be very smooth - just so SHORT in duration! Both are very family-friendly and not at all on par with Velocicoaster or even Mummy.
