Man, no wonder they haven't opened it! Pantheon is looking rough!

Took the train yesterday and it really put into perspective how close that headchopper is after the final? inversion. I can’t wait to ride it with my hands up the whole time. Should be top tier

I don't know the station kinda looks like a stone building here so it's themed a little at least.

 

[Jonesta6]

Dumb comparison, maybe, but I305 is themed to Dale Earnhardt/NASCAR yet the station does not reflect it in pretty much any noticeable way... Yet it's still a really enjoyable ride anyways.

Considering the lowering standards at BGW I don't think there should be much surprise, even if they did seem to do much more with queue theming than KD did, unless you want to count the archway with the digital display as NASCAR theming...

I'm not sure I would consider the theming standards at an amusement park (KD) as serving as a reasonable bar for a theme park (BGW).

 

[CoasterAuditor]

After seeing the stations for rides like Mako, Manta, Kraken, Montu, looking at Iron Gwazis station, etc. Yeah I am pretty disappointed in the very low budget approach to Pantheons station and queue.

The sad thing is that both Twisted Timbers and Tumbili (according to renderings) have significantly more theming than Pantheon.

In technicality it's a theme park, even if it's not cohesive across each section.

 

[mikes]

Maybe if BGW loses the subjective title of the "World's most beautiful theme park" they'll pay attention to details again

 

[GoHokies87]

BGW should start advertising this as the biggest project in park history taking nearly 4 years to complete.

At this rate primordial @ Lagoon might open first

Beyond disgusted... I most definitely hope to see a lawsuit come from this. What about people who bought passes for the opportunity but can't go to the parks whenever the hell they feel like it?

I think I'll go ahead and buy a KD 2022 pass now.

 

[RollyCoaster]

It almost sounds like if I cancelled today I couldn’t even get to ride Pantheon but if I cancelled last week I could :/ How fucking stupid

 

[CoasterAuditor]

I hate how much I love this companies parks sometimes. Seriously LOVED SWO and BGT and obviously love BGW. SWSA was perfectly fine as well (obviously a step below those three). But this company just does not care about its consumer base at all.

I must admit that I don't understand the situation. What is it that they are requiring you to do in order to ride it first, other than have a membership?

Visit the park twice between September 10th and October 31st if you are annual passholder.

OR

Visit the park three times between September 10th and December 31st if you are a member.

Note: Achieving the correct goal (depending upon your type of pass) will get you an invitation to the Pantheon VIP Party. ERT (Exclusive Ride Time) will be offered to all pass holders - I am assuming both annual passholders and members - by keeping your pass active through March 2022.

"by keeping your pass active through March 2022."

This is the part that scares me. I bet there will be all kinds of issues when people come off their free months and back into paying memberships.

on that note... i just remembered that i need to update my credit card information

So ERT doesn't have any additional requirement, right? So I don't understand what's upsetting about this. Or did they talk about the VIP party as being something you'd get before without any additional requirement?
