I find touching faster and more accurate than swiping, although the latter probably makes more sense as a replacement for the real thing. I flip with my thumbs and shoot up with my index fingers to touch the nudge areas. I've got pretty good speed with it now, but it took a while before it got...
It took me the better part of a year playing TPA on my iPad to get touch nudging in my system. Then it probably took another year to develop automatic reactions. I still suck at using the up nudge.
Btw: Dizzer2012 just posted a 700B game on Jackbot, almost 6x the next best score. Kind of takes...
The saucer has some faux-randomized releases, some straight to the middle pin, others a bit skewed to the right flipper and some which already bounce around in the alley near the saucer and go into the slingshots. They don't feel different to me as far as I remember. It took quite a few games...
Few posts indead, but it's also been the release week of Rescue 911, I was busy with that. I just today put up a 251B game, that's way up from my previous best of 28B. Had a 43B game in between. I actually had no clue where I was scoring-wise while the game was going on, and just squandered the...
Hi Invitro,
My 32B was a bit by accident, not intentional to just pass your score :) I was actually aiming for the 48B that Tarek posted earlier, he is already up to 99B. I think this game will take 100B plus, it just takes somebody to potentially sacrifice a very good game. We'll wait for the...
Now that I have enough games under the belt so to say, I'm wondering if something is up with the Jackpot switch recognition. There are two lock holes in the "upper playfield", the most left and farthest from the upper flipper is the Emergency Room, the other one is located near the Cave-In drop...
Hi Flippyfloppy, thanks for asking. This is what happens: I play the POTO table and beat the top score. I put my initials in and where they became weird in earlier TPA versions, now they were put in normally. It even seems like the score got saved to the leaderboards. (It's a modest 12M this...
I'm gonna bump my POTO issue here, getting the top score still crashes the app when doing a remote backup. The issue with strange uppercase letters appearing in the high scores seems to be fixed. iPad Air 2 with iOS 9.2, latest TPA release 5.8.0 #8
I'm not hating it. If you play for score, then it's a bit of a one-trick 300M jackpot pony. I do like the technique involved to keep it going, especially getting back to the starting position of having one ball on the lower left flipper and one ball one the upper flipper if you get out of that...
Is it worth including the scores on Fish Tales? I've been playing that one of late and saw a very narrow scoring window at the top of the leaderboards, to avoid the rollover. You have to aim very carefully not to go over and FUUTA's score is quite the achievement in that way. Normally I wouldn't...
I haven't played it that much but I would certainly rank it above both CBW and LCA. I remember a deeper ruleset for one. The helicopter may get old in long games but was a fun toy that you actually get to play with a bit during gameplay. I think it has a better theme and nice implementation of...
Thanks, I get the idea! That second one I never heard of or seen before. I know the people behind Pinball 101 are making 102, I think this move would fit right in... :)
I feel a bit torn about posting now because of the events in Brussels but I just got a 9.9B game for a 7th place on the overall leaderboards. If I had watched those more closely I could have gone a bit higher, but rolling over is a definite risk I didn't want to take. I'm very happy with my 1000...
relaxation : can you post the video about the hand-off elsewhere? I get an error when I try to open the video on that site (maybe it's not valid outside the States?)
