    Forum closure

    Gord, a huge thank you. This forum has been such a blessing and has introduced me to quite a few people I have personal connections with now. Perhaps the biggest bit of gratitude I owe you is when you made that connection with Mel at Zen, who you then immediately introduced me to. That is...

    Forum closure

    Where the hell did you find the pilot episode?? I haven't heard that in years! We sound very odd, the flow is a bit janky, but the kernals of what BlahCade would become are certainly there.

    Is this it for Farsight / Pinball Arcade?

    This has to be the silliest 'hot take' I've read in quite a while. FarSight has not made a new digital pinball table since 2018 I think? And no, TPA was not universally hated during it's entire existence, far from it. The biggest gripe just had to do with there being so much potential that...

    Indiana Jones on Mobile: Buy or "Earn?"

    In the past when a new table dropped, there would be a 'limited time' event that would offer up table parts for those tables specifically, enough to get you up to 2 stars. This was to help people who hadn't maxed out all the tables yet and were getting a mish mash of parts for all the tables...

    Zen does it again - “Zen Pinball Party” for Apple Arcade

    Uh, quick cash grab? First, it’s part of the Apple Arcade subscription, where you also have access to hundreds of other full ad free games. Second, and Zen has made no bones about it, this is reaching out to an audience that might not otherwise pay attention to pinball. Based on ranking of...

    Zen does it again - “Zen Pinball Party” for Apple Arcade

    I'm happy that the app crash that was happening every single time I got multiball on ToM got fixed. I started playing with my DS4 controller on my iPhone (I had no idea I could do that!) and yep, there's no way to exit out of the achievements screen with the controller. I've never experienced...

    My wish list for Pinball FX4 (for PlayStation 5)

    Based on what was just released with Zen Pinball Party, and assuming Pinball FX will utilize it too, there should indeed be a slider for adjusting the camera position rather than having predefined views.

    Pinball FX on Switch/PS5/XSX/PC. A mistake its not on old gen?

    Mel already told us, it's a matter of priorities in the studio. So Switch, PS5 and new Xbox will get it at launch. PS4 and Xbone will potentially see it later, but it's not guaranteed. Mel did tell us in the BlahCade interview that he certainly recognizes the install base they would be ignoring...

    Machine guns?

    Gottlieb Premiere never seemed to think through their designs much. "Hey, let's just throw it up on the wall and see if it sticks." "Sir, the entire room was just wallpapered and the glue hasn't dried." "Well then it all makes it onto the table!"

    That's really helpful info! Plus, Ted Lasso :D

    Machine guns?

    Never noticed that before, but I just looked the game up on IPDB.org and looking at the flyer, it seems they might have been going for a Death Race 2000 vibe. On the flyer is specifically says "Load your weapons, check your equipment, and start your engines. You are about to start the race of...

    Farsight support

    It's a nearly 10 year old game engine that TPA runs on. With no big ticket license, producing a new game engine to match modern expectations all so they could pump out a few more Gottlieb titles makes little sense. FarSight keeps playing the victim rather than admitting to their own shortcomings...

    AtGames Legends pinball

    Considering Taito Brazil used to do just this with Williams machines, seems appropriate. Viva la tradicion!

    AtGames Legends pinball

    That's up to Gord to create new categories. Your best bet is to start an ALP Mods thread and start posting. If it gets a lot of activity or starts others to create ALP threads, that would perhaps show how necessary a new forum listing would be.

    Arcooda is not quite done are they?

    The software that isn't Arcooda Pinball Arcade is for Pro Pinball/Barnstorm, not sure if just Timeshock or all 4 tables.
