Ryan Routon · Feb 6, 2014

Ok guys, here is the latest beta. The cameras still have not been touched and the hud needs to be fixed, but I am out tomorrow and wanted to give you something to test.

Ok, that was pretty awesome.

The RANSOM lettering was messed up. Sometimes it's difficult to hear the Black Knight. The ball seems to accelerate at different times and was kind of choppy at times. The ball came off the left slingshot really fast. The top flipper seemed really weak.
Otherwise, awesome.

Thanks, Ryan. This is one of my favorite tables. Keep up the good work.

I think that's what Ryan means by "the HUD".

I've noticed the audio is crackly when you hear the epic "Aaaaaah, Aaaaaaaaaaah" vocal sting for the first time. Use headphones and this imperfection is clear.

Other than that the music compression is pretty good.

This is one of the few tables in the collection where I can't offer much critique about how it compares to IRL. The one thing I did notice is that when you shoot the uturn from right to left, the ball seems to exit to the far left of the playfield. Perhaps something to check on the real machine in the studio.

The "King's Ransom" box sits below the score at all times but it's cut off about half-way down. You can only see the top half of the RANSOM letters.

Kratos3 · Feb 6, 2014

Kickout shot the ball straight into the right outlane.

netizen · Feb 6, 2014

There is a duped section of the Kings Ransom off of the backbox as part of the HUD

When you advance the Kings Ransom and put a ball up the ramp and it goes down the wireform to the Left it will get hung up, and you have to nudge to make the ball pass over the plastic area and into the lock.

The mix on the audio is pretty off, the vocal samples are buried, and the choral parts in the main song chorus are clipping/hot. They either need to be re-recorded, or remixed.

Oh. My. God. I've not listened to any YouTube posts with that music and my mind is now blown. Can't wait to run through the paces. Any chance on fixing the dmd placement on black rose?

Ball shot in the right eject hole and it came out the top like I'd plunged it. Vocals are difficult to hear at times. The ball seems to be passing through the upper flipper occasionally.

I will finally see if that table is as good as everyone says.
Thanxxx ^^

Lol: thought that was how it was supposed to work...

Any pictures to share? Thanks!

coooool - wasn't expecting this either. Very nice - love the music. Only had a quick go so far. From the videos I've watched, I'd say the middle rubbers (WAR) are not bouncy enough. Wish there were more sound effects too as the ball goes up the ramps into upper play field - seems a bit quiet.

Thanks for posting these Baron!
About the upper left ramp: this is the first time that I see a transparent ramp that actually looks like transparent plastic, instead of a dull grey metal look. Excellent. The looks are great. Busy colorful table, so far so good!!

Only had a quick look, but quality is really excellent. (Tapatalk has reduced the image quality when posting unfortunately).
Playfield cutouts look better with no undesired light bleed at edges.

I think the ball lock area artwork is from an early run machine, later had a 3d wall effect.

Couple of screws missing if you wanted to be picky.

xAzatothx · Feb 6, 2014

probably should have compressed these ......... but

netizen · Feb 6, 2014

Since when did it become the thing to post images for iOS users on request during the Android Beta?

Night claims he has an Android device, let him load the APK himself.
