Well, it seems that the PS3 version won't require a game update after the Williams/Bally removal. The non-purchased tables in the game menu are tied with the table availability in the PS Store. Tables removed in PS Store = non-purchased tables not showing off anymore in the game. I noticed...

And since the PS4, you have to pay (a lot) for it. 50 millions jackasses who pay for a peer-to-peer online network. No dedicated servers, the ol'-one-douche-with-a-crappy-connection-hosts-the-game. Oh boy.

Thanks for the advice, ScotchYeti. Actually, I was interested by Getaway High Speed II (because everybody says it's a blast) and Swords of Fury (because I like the 80's heroic fantasy theme in general... and the music is awesome). I have one more question: It's hard to find videos about the...

On PS3 and Xbox360, the core game contained ToTAN, ToM, BH and Rbion and was sold 9.99 $/€.

I really doubt that FS will push bug fixes alongside the Williams/Bally removal patch. Back in december, I posted a list of the remaining bugs after the last major update (the one which added the ball physics 3.0 on all tables), and Tom answer was: "For some of the problems you see, I will try...

* The Pinball Arcade 2012-2018 *

For info: It's mainly due that 1920x1080 is not the native resolution of TPA on PS3, and FS chose to apply a post-processing filter to smooth the image quality in 1080i/p (the game has a huge dithering in 720p). Therefore, it induces a 1 frame-lag, that you notice directly when you flip the...

Ok I tried. Do you play in 1080i/p or in 720p resolution? I can confirm that entering the trap door in 1080p is almost impossible on the fly due to the input lag. - If you flip at the right time (well, the right time if there wasn't input lag), the ball always take the right orbit. - So you...

Hmm? I will try tonight, but I remember it worked correctly (EU version). Stay tuned.

In the late 90's - early 2000, there was an arcade room near my university with 4 pinball tables: MM, MB, Apollo XIII and Monopoly. Monster Bash was very (very) used (slingshots and bumpers were dead, flippers were very weak - you could barely take a ramp -), but the replay score was...

As the tournament has now ended, there is still the final ranking bug: - After a tournament has finished, when a player wants to see the tournament final rankings, it says: "You did not participate to this tournament", although you did. And "None" is displayed instead of the tournament final...

I tried again, and yes, you're right, the translucent ball bug is unfortunately still there. Steps to reproduce: - Start a game on a table that is already set with a custom ball (by default). It means the first time you set a custom ball on the table, the bug does not occur. - Finish the game...

As ScotchYeti said, performing a live catch is the ultimate proof. But more generally, the ball is a lot less bouncy when hitting the flippers, you feel it specifically during multiball, when you want to control the balls as much as possible. I played iconic tables of each season (from S1 to S4...

Hello, I was cooking a changelog since the 2.32 (US)/1.30 (UE) release in November, but one month later, surprise, a new update (2.33 in US, 1.31 in EU). I planned to create a topic about that, but as there is this one (moreover with a dev roaming around! Hail to Tom Devaney!), here we go...

Nice! Going to download it tonight. Full report tomorrow. BTW, this "late" support for the PS3 was totally... unexpected. ^^ I really thought that PS3 udpates containing only the new tables were now the rule, but seeing new physics on all tables was a very pleasant surprise. For this, big...

Oh, thanks for the info, guys... If ball physics (3.0?) is now on par on all PS3 tables, I get back to TPA too! I will download the update tonight. EDIT: did you check Black Knight? Real ROM or still emulated? Well, like Morg says, there's still the required 720p switch to reduce the input...

Live catch on old tables too (pre-Xenon)? I doubt it. As I stated in another topic, I think that if a table is updated (bugfixes or anything else), it has to be re-downloaded (as it was the case with the super-mega patch in 2013).

Absolutely. Just checked yesterday if there was an update for Pinball Arcade EU on PS3... and nothing. But hey, who cares anymore? Note: at least, Farsight releases all the S6 tables in one shot alongside with the Season Pass... For the Season 5, they released the Season Pass with a few...

Placebo effect. Since the 2014 megapatch, TPA updates on PS3 only contain the new tables (no bugfixes, no new features, etc). If an old table would be possibly updated (like implementing ball physics 3.0), it would require to redownload it on the PSN. It didn't happen since... the megapatch 3...

There are some exceptions that do not require PS+ subscription to play online: - Free-to-play games (basically, ZEN/Pinball FX is a F2P game) - Games with basic leaderboards - Games that already require a subscription fee (Elder Scrolls online) - Some very simple online game modes do not...
