I still don't see why some think Xcel's launch is better than bigger, faster launches.

Xcel's launch has a quicker acceleration, but it seemed to be over so quickly, lasting just over 2 seconds. I favor TTD's launch as you get a better sense of speed, really letting the acceleration sink in.

 

[SAW_gameover]

1)Stealth
2)Rita

Simply because they're the only Launch's I've been on

 

[SaiyanHajime]

Kingda Ka front row > everything.

 

[Hixee]

^Nearly.

TTD front row > KK front row > everything else.

 

[SaiyanHajime]

I havn't done TTD front row. But it's at CP, so instant fail.

If there was a near-clone of Maverick anywhere else, it would be better than Maverick.

 

[nadroJ]

Kingda Ka front row > everything.

See now I did like Ka, hence why it's in my top ten, but I just find the launch on Stealth much more exhilarating and satisfying overall.

With Ka I just feel like the launch goes on for too long and loses its 'oomph' whereas Stealth goes off with a bang and before you know it you're vertical. I like how snappy and gut-wrenching Stealth's launch is whereas Ka, although obviously faster, was a lot smoother and therefore a lot less enjoyable for me.

 

[Nemesis Inferno]

TTD is awesome... And makes Stealth go hide in a box...

So basically it goes...

TTD

Dodonpa FTW.

I think I'd actually take Zaturn over all the other Intamuck launches.

 

[tks]

Isn't Zaturn exactly the same as Stealth?

 

[Screaming Coasters]

1. Furius Baco
2. Rita
3. Thunderlooper (That big clunk at the beginning of the launch was amazing)

Furious Baco
Rita
Speed Monster

Dodonpa's was literally breathtaking. Shame about the rest of the ride, it's balls compared to the launch.
