Rolling launches, which I tend to include in my virtual coaster builds, kill the suspense of a standing launch (which is one of the few things I am still afraid of on coasters - going from a standstill to a fast speed without knowing when it will occur) and in my opinion feel more intense as you suddenly gain a boost of speed. I've experienced the one on Volcano: The Blast Coaster, and Maverick technically has one too - but you come to a near stop before accelerating through that dark tunnel, so I'm on the fence about whether it's a standing or rolling launch.
