News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

Wait how long has voice text been available to post on this site? Or is it just because I got on a new phone?

I was talking to my son, looked down at my phone and everything I was saying to him was ready to be posted

This is likely a function of the "keyboard" on your phone.

From the WDW forum:

Not a lot. Minor ride system bugs.

Both versions are working on it. It’s normal test and adjust.

It has no bearing on the split ride opening decision.

Of course I’m right
But it’s a common problem, not unique. I’d expect it to be solved way before the summer.

And from this forum:

I can confirm the news posted earlier here about the RotR delay - my source has confirmed that there are startup issues with the RotR ride.
I also can confirm a ride vehicle torn apart.

** UPDATE ** - Saw this posted....
ohplezz41 -
A friend of mine works for TDA and she says ROTR isn't coming out due to mechanical issues. Contractors can't figure it out. WDW is having the same problems but worse. TDA Operations is freaking out.

Alright, @marni1971 and @SWGalaxysEdge , these are about as conflicting as reports can get. Which is it?

I just confirmed with my source that Galaxy's Edge is being retooled into a Woody's Roundup land, to compliment Cars Land at DCA. They also said, and I quote, "lmao this vid suxxx ". I trust them with my life and will keep you updated with more that they say.

Well, you know I make everything up that I say.

Mickey Tour Guide: “And over here, you can see one of the ride vehicles—“ (Notices condition of vehicle) “WHAT THE H—“ (Sweating) “Er, sorry folks—Hey can I get you all to look at this ballpoint pen for a second?” FLASH

All right, tourist, there was no totaled ride vehicle. The flash of light you saw in the sky was not a malfunction. Swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Tatooine.

I knew I was wrong to admire your countless invaluable contributions to this site!

Luke: “Ben, you told me RotR was ‘coming along great.’”
Ben: “And so it is... From a certain point of view.”

Rocket Rods Problems - It's Bad. I can confirm that Rocket Rods is not being refurbished or enhanced. My source indicates that all the cars have been torn apart. Twenty years of my life down the drain.

Yep I use voice to text all the time on my iPhone, so nothing special for this site, just new to you on your new phone. What’d you get?

Nice.

The iPhone XS. I guess the 7 didn’t have this feature? I know it had voice text, I just mean the capability of using it on a site like this.

Cool, I have an X

I would think "torn apart" is hyperbole for "dismantled" so as to track down the source of a bug.

Ops freaking out is not at the same level as if the mechanical engineers were freaking out.

But, @britain . But if Rise of the Resistance breaks down, the stormtroopers don't eat the tourists.

 

[SWGalaxysEdge]

What's meant by "a ride vehicle torn apart"? Like, they couldn't get it working mechanically so they tore it down to do major gear work, or that it got into some sort of sig alert collision on the ride and vehicle got totaled? The second issue is unacceptable and basically puts guest lives in danger.

...exactly...cover taken off, and guts exposed.

...exactly...cover taken off, and guts exposed.

The way you phrased things was very misleading and over dramatic. It really did sound to me like a ride car had broken apart during testing, a quite different thing from taking a car apart to check what's up with it.

Found out - RotR issues are from communications. (wifi) problems.

Oh yeah? I have those problems too!
