Well... The website leaderboards are infinitely better than the ones in the game, especially since you provide us the Master Data csv file. So, a big thanks for your hard work and how you keep us informed. That has to be said.
:cool: Maybe they tried to fix the PS3 leaderboards for those tables, and they broke everything instead. \o/
On Black Hole PS3, I can't stand anymore to be ranked 6998th with a score that should be 60th on the website leaderboards.:p (but my score was not posted anyway, even when the website...
There's a new bug on CV (almost sure that it didn't happen before).
When locking a third ball with a sneaky ball (from the head of Voltaire), the Highwire Multiball doesn't start. The table is stuck and enters in "search ball mode" then releases the 3 balls at the same time after about 40...
I think "restored save and everything is clean" means that he copied his old save file into TPA folder after the W10 installation, but TPA doesn't display his highscores and completed goals, i.e. his save file seems to not be recognized.
I think FS waits now that the new tables have been released on PSN (announced for early July)... like the last tourney which was postponed for the same reason.
EDIT: bad news:
FS currently works on the leaderboards updating speed. As you may notice, in the all-time leaderboards, the score...
Yeah, the random rules would be great. But knowing FS, if they have to implement each rule, we could see all of it in one or two years. ^^
At the moment, as somebody pointed out earlier in this thread, the limited attempts with the best score registered is already in the game, via the challenge...
Indeed. :cool:
I think that's how FS programmed the tournament ranking system in first place. They were "optimistic" that all the players entering a tourney will play on all the 8 tables (and buy all the tables in the same process lol).
Because if each unique player plays on all 8 tables: sum...
It's almost true for tables like AFM, HD3, TZ, MB and CC, where the strategy is pretty simple: make every shot counts during the 20mn (except HD3, on which it's based on the biggest number of video modes). On the other hand, only a few people here are able to make the perfect game on demand (aka...
To add some advantages to be in a higher tier:
- Win a Gold tourney gives 300 pts in the All-Time Ranking.
- Win a Silver tourney gives 200 pts in the All-Time Ranking.
- Win a Bronze tourney gives 100 pts in the All-Time Ranking.
I don't remember how much points it gives to finish second or...
Yeah, but you can play as much warm-up games as you want outisde the tourney, the fact there is limited attempts changes everything. If you mess up the game, you end with a bad score. Period.
That's why I think the limited attempts per table (let's say 5) is the best choice. You only have 5...
The 20mn limit was a great addition.
But after 16 tourneys on consoles (and a lot more on mobile devices), it still lacks something very important: the real tension of a pinball tourney. Bummer.
With unlimited attempts, no fear to lose a ball, no satisfaction to score something that gives only...
+1.
It's time to implement limited attempts on each table OR only the latest score registered (I vote for this one).
Otherwise these tourney will always be a boring grind fest (i.e. I play until I put a decent score).
Yes, FS has worked on this. Quote from LAW:

Good news.
The bad news is that Black Hole and Funhouse leaderboards on PS3 are still totally desynchronized with the ones on the official website...
TPA Scorecard 4.9 is out:
