Villain-Con Minion Blast (General Discussion)

Wow just like the rumors were pointing to like a month or two ago

Wild how that works!

Rumors of Villain Con’s demise were greatly exaggerated.

The theme park community panics very easily.

I have heard that top leadership has told the design team it must be open by the end of July. But, the design team is still concerned with that time line.
Should be interesting to see how things play out.

I am really interested in this attraction. It’s something different.

Exacerbated by the fact that the gameplay is highly complicated

'Cause It immigrated from the greatest little place on Turkey Lake, Universal Creative!

Another day, another update. Worth noting that I think they got a bit carried away as there's no TM Preview announcement on UOTeam.

I have heard that it is the staff for the ride that is helping test the ride out. Not an open call for team members across the resort.

Now that I would believe. Exciting progress nonetheless!

ETA (noting again that there's nothing on UOTeam and no TM friends of mine have been informed of previews):

Yea so no. It’s a very limited test with select Team Members including managers from other departments. Not open to all TMs from what I can tell.

Until we see it listed on UOTeam as actual Team Member previews, I would not get too excited.

Honeslty Villain-Con opening during HHN would… oddly fit since it’s Villain themed?

I can’t imagine this being open for HHN. HHN drunks on a moving walkway with weapons? Recipe for disaster.

Forget that, where does the house in there queue if the ride is running? It's just not designed to run both at the same time.

Now previews are starting

Let the info leaks begin.

I find it hilarious that not even two weeks after the forum freak out from the usuals the thing is in TM previews. Clown shoe brigade.

Interesting to note, nowhere does it call it "previews," only still calling it "ride testing" but at least this isnt paid all day testing for commissioning staff only.

It wasn't a freakout, it was a simple conversation discussion/debating Universal's strategy on how they approach their projects.
