    Anyone try NBA Fastbreak?

    Both! I'm a big NBA fan, so it was't that hard. I think they did an excellent job on Drexler, he is highly recognizable. But it's definitely second tier when you think about the NBA in 1996. Drexler is a Hall of Famer, and Kidd an Allstar. Nick van Exel had some good seasons and was a clutch...

    Anyone try NBA Fastbreak?

    Well, I have some news....I bought one! I played it at the DPO a couple of weeks back, and by chance heard that it was for sale. I immediately expressed my interest and just made the deal a couple of days ago! It will be my first real life table and it mixes two of my favorite things: pinball...

    Party Zone first impressions

    Got my score up to 795M, 6th place on the leaderboards. I did it by spamming the rocket ramp from the right flipper and returning the ball there via the left flipper to Robot. This is fairly safe albeit a bit boring, and maybe the best way to stack some extra balls from the Ozone reward counter...

    Disappointed: POTO still broken!

    Latest iOS and iPad Air 2, but the problem was already present on my old iPad 2 with iOS 6.x. As far as I know, Farsight has been mum on the subject. There is a bug thread here...

    Disappointed: POTO still broken!

    Hi fellow iOS users, Although I am and will remain a big TPA fan, I'm really disappointed that POTO is still broken with the latest 4.2 release (Party Zone). When I get the grand champion score, the app crashes to the main iOS screen and afterwards remote backup will be broken and cause the same...

    Your favorite table

    When I'm not actively hunting for HOF points, I find myself firing up AFM a lot, and recently BSD. Nothing left to prove or discover anymore on those tables (although I still have to achieve that pesky 300M Coffin Jackpot Wizard Goal), but great tables to play. On AFM I'm still trying to get the...

    Tables getting too fast?

    If TPA's claim is to do faithful recreations, than the TPA table should play like it's IRL counterpart. However, no 2 IRL tables play the same. I recently played 3 different BSD's in one weekend (Dutch Pinball Open) and all three had their own quirks and small differences in gameplay and speed...

    Most difficult Wizard Goal - a poll

    +1 Have already had multiple 15M Werewolves and 9B as top score, but 300M Coffin is hard. Still working on 3M Genie too, now up to 1.5M. I don't know if it's a wizard goal but finishing a perfect Milwaukee MB on HD3 is very hard too because of the time constraints. But it's probably only...

    Most difficult Wizard Goal - a poll

    This is too familiar, I messed up situations like this before. I hate it that I have 995 HOF points on Taxi for example, if I had plunged the last ball at 100k instead of 50k, it would show 1000 HOF points....I missed countless shots on other tables where I would have started a profitable...

    Leaderboard question

    I was thinking about that (hacking being easier), but I couldn't think of a way to exploit being offline and then afterwards getting a readout of your scores for online posting. Then again, I'm a standup guy.... :) And posting how is not good anyway. Probably too much hacking happening already...

    Pro Pinball

    Hi VikingErik, You are right! I mixed the stories up in my head, but he was talking about the Web at first. He described Timeshock not in terms of T2 but as a project that had to surpass the Web in scope and complexity. Thanks for your input, also that remark about the differences between iPad...

    Most difficult Wizard Goal - a poll

    +1 for both. I got that Jackpot by chance, but I'm still working towards Super Surprise.

    Pro Pinball

    I had the good fortune of playing it on an iPad Air 1 at the Dutch Pinball Open and came away totally impressed by it. Lighting, reflections, shadows were off the charts with the pre-rendered, nigh photorealistic table, and with multiple camera angles rendered, this is working out like the best...

    Leaderboard question

    When I first started playing TPA for real, I didn't know how the leaderboard thing worked exactly. So I took my iPad on holiday in an appartment without Wi-fi and promptly posted a 1.6B Monsterbash game. It took me then another year or so, to beat that score. So now I go only to places with...

    Leaderboard question

    I don't think so, you have to be logged in for scores to be saved to the leaderboards. This is how it works for iOS anyway.

    Timeshock! The REAL Edition!

    Hi guys, Nice to see this getting some coverage. I was at the DPO and got to see the prototype up close. It looked really good and although it couldn't be played yet, it already had that Timeshock feel to it, with that crystal sitting proud in the middle. Those guys are working their butts of to...

    Bug App crashes after achieving high score...new high score not posted to leaderboard

    Hi Toolinit, I hope you had a prior remote backup that can be restored. I deleted the whole app and with a clean re-install I luckily could restore all my scores just before the POTO-disaster (iPad Air 2, latest iOS). Also remote backup is working again. I'm not touching that *&@%#$^ table again...

    Bug App crashes after achieving high score...new high score not posted to leaderboard

    I also found that remote backup wouldn't work anymore after the POTO high score crash. Anybody can confirm that? iPad Air 2 and latest OS
