TBH - While I still think the entire installation is ugly and cheap, it at least is better than some of the other things in Festa, and far better than I was expecting. This at least was planned and looks like it could actually work when given time to remove the warehouse feel.
My only real issue with it is the odd location, but there are pages of discussion on that.
Soft opening confirmed for next weekend. Employees get to ride it Monday- Wednesday.
Is it me or does the announcer in the video feel completely anti-climatic/ feels like hes hitting all the details way to late in the vid?
The audio isn't meant to go with the video. The audio is a whole separate advertisement.Crums28 said:
And the voice actor reminds me of the early Anheuser Busch male voice. Nice choice! I like! Sadly, the POV lowered my excitement level a bit. Still, any chance the soft open includes next Friday?
I know this will be a controversial topic, but when you mean by "next weekend" due you mean by the 18th-19th or 11th-12th?
Here are a few more behind-the-scenes shots of Tempesto.
Some of the queue area.
Station and exit.
The entrance loop and plaza.
Looking at the entrance plaza from the Coke Market side.
Signage and facade. Note the location of the sample seat.
Look closely at the blue wall in the back. You'll see a red Temepsto poster. It was impossible to get a picture of, but there are a number of these posters lining the queue walls.
Station and some sort of staircase. You can see more of the posters along the wall here.
Looking back at the queue, for anyone who cares.
This was the best I could do to get a picture of one of the other posters.
The new Plinko game.
I know Connor shared similar shots, but I do believe there are a few different ones in here. Plus, what's the harm in a few more roller coaster pictures, anyway?

Mr. Tempesto seems to have shown up to the construction site today! Huge thanks to @SamWalkerOBX for the picture!

Looks like he just got back from a kid's birthday party playing an Italian Evil Knievel..

As against I am about this installment, seeing it run really does spike my curiosity. I guess that is what the park wants, anyway.
I mean it's still a new ride, whether it's what you expected or not. It's not like you stand in line and then it spits on you and takes your wallet or something.
