Mission: SPACE testing a "no G Force" version of the experience

[Timmay]

Why don't they just admit that they made a poor attraction and be done with it? They obviously created an attraction that doesn't appeal to adults because of the risks such as if you have high blood pressure and thrill seekers don't like it either because it's too tame. They should have just created something of quality and with an actual theme instead of creating this "spin and puke." I guess we'll be stuck w/ it for a while....

Okay, fine, I will bite.

#1- No need to admit anything, because it simply isn't true.

#2- I guess even though I am 41 years old, I am not an adult because this ride obviously appeals to me...probably even some other imposteradults as well.

#3-I am not even sure how to respond to the "quality" remark...very strange

#4- You are not stuck with anything...it is all about personal choice. Just pretend there is nothing there and you might feel better.

I agree with most of the points in I-99's post. This has a chance to become VERY confusing to guests and also has a very good chance of providing a dud of an experience as well.

This could be a good thing and it might solve most of the attractions' problems, but it also could end up burying the attraction in the ground as well. Of course, only if this happens permanently.

I'm not a fan of M:S.. but, the attraction does appeal to adults... and it does appeal to thrill seekers... The ride, even though not one I like, is quality... Adding a tamer bay would be a great idea.

I am definitely not in favor of this. After doing this, where do they draw the line? Do they make a ToT shaft that doesn't drop really fast? Do they make a walkthrough version of RnRC? How about a teacup that doesn't spin? This is rediculous imo.

Why is it ridiculous? Because MORE people would actually be able to ride M:S?? i don't see how that is a bad thing.. What I do see as a bad thing is 200 or more complaints of sickness and 2 deaths... If Disney can cut just 1 bay, not the entire ride, just 1 bay and make it a tame version with no spinning, and millions of more people can ride M:S, then i am, all for it.... I don't think this is ridiculous at all... Closing one bay to make it tamer is not alienating you or other MS lovers... They just might create millions more MS lovers.. I know if they made a tame version, I'd be more inclined to go on it than I am with the wild version....

It would certainly give people the option to ride the no GForce version, which opens up the ride to more people. It is important to note though, that the regular, original version will still be available should the other version be offered.

But the problems will remain, with people who'll do the rotation, (thus the full version) because they still don't know what their medical condition is...

T.O.T. won't be falling... in the "No Fall" version...
You just sit down, it'll give you a tour as usual, but in stead of dropping, it veeeery softly slides down.. and will only shake very much...

Then probably people will die out of boredom...

I wasnt thinking of this "no G" version as fix for people riding with medical conditions and then suffering ill effects. I am looking at this as a way for people who are afraid, or find the regular version too intense, to still be able to enjoy at least part of the attraction.

Do we really have to revisit this again. :brick: :brick:
The statements you are making and attempting to pass off as known facts are just opininons.
I refuse to believe that this attraction does not appeal to most adults, unless there was poll data to support your claim.
It is just your opinion that M:S is a poor attraction and your opinion that it has no theming. Now others may share your opinion and that is fine.

Anyways... good compromise in possibly changing one of the bays and leaving the others as they are.

So, the only recourse then is shut the ride down... By making 1 bay no g-force, you at least give thse who know they have a problem and those who are too nervous to go on the intense verion a chance to enjoy M:S... yes, i am sure there still will be issues... But, other than closing the ride down, Disney would be doing the better option....

And don't forget the people who do have a condition and know it could ride M:S without the spinning that may trigger something.....

Still accidents will occur, because of people who don't know their medical condition...
So No Disney, you're heading the wrong way...
Bye, Bye, Mission Space... what a waste...

And I personally don't think it's a bad idea (as long as it doesn't make the line for the regular ride a lot longer), but I also think Corrus has a great point too. This would not cure the problem of certain people avoiding the warnings and riding the main ride profile. I'm sure you've seen how much attention people pay around the attractions.

Now let's not start being negative here :lol:

I agree with you.. i do not like MS but I cannot call it a poor attraction... if Disney does go through with this change, then awesome.. if not, then MS is a ride I will not go on again...

Not a prayer...wanna' wager the warnings will be exactly the same for the toned down version.

of course accidents will still happen, every ride has them.. but this would at least give those who know they have something and those who are too nervous to ride the intense version the ability to ride it... i think it is a good move...

 

[Captain Chaos]

I won't wager because I am sure they will be the same.. as they are for even the most tamest ride in Disney.. standard procedure.. But, it would at least provide a less intesne, or non-existant intense experience... to those who cannot handle or choose not to handle the intense version...

 

[SirGoofy]

When I first saw this I thought it was a great idea...

But the I thought about how this will extend wait times on one of the most popular attractions. If they could do it without affecting wait times, I would have no problem with it.

 

[Tim G]

An item that rotates, creates G-Force... ALWAYS
So the only way to make something G-Force-less is to just let it hanging still... limp, with just some rocking... Be carefull one could get sick...

The whole thing is "Over-Hyped"... this is just a trck to calm the press down.
Probably 1 out of 20 will take the "just hangin' there" version...

It would have been easier to make a room with a bunch of rocking chairs and a wide-screen...

People will die in theme parks, that's a fact... Unless they R E A D the signs

They will tone down "Splash as wel... they''ll design a "just sitting there" version...

Oh... and I almost forgot the Tea Cups... they'll turn it into a veeeeeery slow merry-go-round... Before someone gets hurt...

Wait untill something happens at E:E...
