Farsight, you knew about the issue with the canon shot when cradling the ball yet still released it? What the actual hell guys?

You see this insane blur, right?

Twilight Zone, Firepower, Black Knight, all had major issues at beta (and most still have) , which despite repeated tester reports were released onto platforms where it was known they could not easily be patched.

If you haven't figured out that this is standard management dictate yet, what have you been playing?

It's taken me 15 games to identify it, but it's there. The dreaded TPA idea of "Randomization" on the L Ramp feed; just like in CC and what was in AFM Loops. A really slow rejection feed will show the "Bump" redirection the most prominent, but when the rejections feed puts the ball in one of, at least, 5 places there is a serious problem.

The SDTM was much more playable.

Also why are the camera angles so different on iOS compared to Android, yet again?

Same blur as VenomPlug for me, playing on Galaxy S3

That blur is only there in view 3. It's a very bizarre thing.
Views 1,2+4 are all clear.

Crystal clear on all 4 views on N7.

I was referring to the Auto Fire insert blur and how it changes depending on view chosen.

The back of the cabinet blurriness is usually dependent on the device GPU etc.

I wasn't replying to your post netizen, but here is the auto fire insert.

-Some kind of strange filtering issue going on here, I will take a look at it but it appears to be driver related since this was both happening on N7s?

-@Carl - I will check to see if this was fixed elsewhere (or if anyone knows if this was repaired on ios let me know here since something might have broken elsewhere in the Android engine).

No it was reported for an SGS3, either another SGS3 or a Note, and an N10 (but specifically the 'Autofire insert' for the N10 view 3 only).

Is Pin•Bots EBs fixed yet?

Edit: Of course not! Still nothing for 1.4M or special...:thumbdown:

I just lost the HUD on resuming the app again, had no pause button or score display. App ended up unresponsive.

This never happened before this version.

Sorry this is a quick reply after a few minutes try before going to work, not had chance to try it fully or try other tables.
By the way this was in portrait view.
Update. Tried T2 in Landscape view and all four camera views are working. So doesn't seem like any one else reporting the zoomed in camera on portrait view, might be specific to my tablet though all other tables work fine.

Same issue on my Archos G9, can't see the bottom of the table and the flippers....

Good to know its not just me with this problem(sorry). I'm playing T2 on view 1 in portrait as the other portrait views on T2 are unusable and I don't really like playing in landscape view.
Also suffering from the blurred Auto Fire sign.
I am enjoying this table so fingers crossed that these issues get sorted.

DrainoBraino · Aug 26, 2013

Yep mine is blurred as well, first thing I noticed when I tested the free demo. Didn't buy.

Ryan Routon · Aug 26, 2013

That's very odd carl, nothing changed with the engine this round. Is it just that table? Anyone else seeing this?

Hey, guys that are having issues with the camera, are you seeing this on Flight2K and going nuts at all? We had some camera engine changes during that update to be more align with ios but it looks like that is causing issues.

Flight 2k seems to be consistent with iOS but going nuts is different.

iOS view 3, Android view 3

The iOS view is focused more on the playfield.
Generally it seems like the angles are far different on iOS, with much more open views that allow for full sight of out lanes in view 1 etc. Space Shuttle is another good comparison of how different the views are between the platforms.
