Gardaland | Oblivion: The Black Hole | B&M Dive Coaster

Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

It's like they went into NL2 and forgot to change any colour scheme before freezing the coaster :/

Edit: ignore me, for some reason thought this was the Efteling topic.
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

^I didn't think this one had a mine theme? But, regarding the colour, I personally think that a white on white theme will look disgusting, especially with a dark, angry theme (based on the promotional material). However, we'll see how it turns out.

I'm also quite surprised that this isn't in the Construction forum yet..... :wink:

If they add suitable, contrasting theming then it might look OK. We'll have to see what they come up with.

Edit: I've just noticed that there are only a few, fairly short supports in the picture. I wonder if they're for a specific part of the ride (eg. the station and surrounding section), and whether some of the larger supports for the main ride might actually be a different colour.
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

The thing that worries me is dirt. White coasters never look nice for long, they get grotty so so quickly!
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

Jordan I agree! Although I still like the colours for the theme! I suppose it's good to see a Merlin coaster that's not black, but I probably would have made the supports black or grey?
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

Was a little surprised not to see this in the construction area yet. I has an update for y'all...

Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

Theming is orange, white track and supports? Not sure how I feel about this. :/
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

I hope to god they add some more black into the theming. Bright orange is a grotesque colour.

I totally just did the same thing and had a minor fit about the orange!!

For Gardaland I actually really like it. I think the really bright colours work when you have that much sunshine.
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

Oo it's really starting to hot up construction wise. Can this now be moved into rollercoaster construction please.
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

Are we actually going to see an Oblivion spin off here? Ala Nemesis and Nemesis Inferno?
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

^Doubt it. I don't think that many Italians will actually know about Oblivion.
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

Here's a fan made video. I really liked Krake so something like this would be awesome IMO, although I do hope they will also feature a splash feature on this one.

Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

I don't personally see what the issue is with dive machines being short, because the main emphasis is really on the drop.
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

^I still think Krake and Oblivion are good despite their short length and their signature drop does help to make up for that, but I personally think Sheikra and Griffon are in a different league being that they have two 'dive' drops and a bit more to them

I really like Krake, but I kinda hope this video is wrong because new coasters with new layouts are more interesting.
 
Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?)

New teaser has popped up online....

Looks like a mash-up of Swarm/Oblivion in terms of marketing.
