    HOF points reset?

    + 1! Then it's the question how it was scaled because of the roll-over bug. If it awarded my HOF points based on only the not-rollover part of my score, then I got 960 HOF points for only 87M. If it did take in account the roll-over (although it does't show the 187M I scored anywhere), then the...

    Buying Season 3 questions - Assuming that Season 3 starts (Mod: It will.)

    That's a good deal, I also missed out on buying Season Packs for iOS (although I did fork out the dough for them on the PC), I didn't know you could do this beforehand though for Season Three, I'll definitely consider that! With all this discount going on, it seems like TPA could consider...

    New website: Pinball Arcade Players now live.

    Wow, nice site! I really like the in-depth treatment the tables are getting. And I really like the fact that we don't immediately have a kind of repeat of the vpforums.com to vpforums.org drama on our hands that plagued that community a couple of years ago and is still an open wound to some...

    Pinball Pulse: The Ancients Beckon

    Too bad, because I had a blast with it on my DSi. It reminded me (fondly) of earler Pro Pinball tables and it has surprising depth to it considering the platform it was made for. Although I'm mostly only playing TPA these days, I do like computer generated pinball tables in addition to real life...

    Teach me how to nudge properly (ipad)

    Do you use the grid that helps display the different nudge areas? This helped me when I tried to figure out how to save balls with a diagonal nudge on Centaur. I also found that it must become a habit to do it with any succes. EM tables like Big Shot and Genie are perfect for trainig your nudge...

    No, VP, get out of my IRL!

    I just played a Tron at the Dutch Pinball Open, and had the same thing happening to me. Difference was that after it let me play with those two balls (which is pretty nice programming for contingencies I would say), it did not give any trouble. The extra ball just drained and I could continue...

    Do you score well and not login?

    I'm actually very much into the "HOF hunt" although at the time I started playing there were already people well into the 15.000-18.000 range (early-middle season 1). I thought I never would stand a chance but now I'm closing in on a top 20 TPA HOF Leaderboard position and top 10 Gamecenter with...

    PC Version 1.19.4 Discussion & Feedback

    Hi guys, I tried searching for an explanation how the PC leaderboards work, but couldn't find it. Could somebody point me to a thread? Otherwise I would like to pose the question here. I thought that all platforms had seperate leaderboards, but when I logged in on my Farsight account on my PC, I...

    Cabinet mode table packs

    That's a really good point superballs, I'm also on a rotated/swiveled 2nd screen setup, this is my preferred VP mode of playing. It's not about owning a cabinet, it's about being able to play in full portrait-mode! I too would be really annoyed when they would make that a seperate buy, but I...

    iOS Version 2.9.0 Bugs

    I can confirm this, same setup (iPad2 iOS6). And the reverse also happens (which is less of a nuisance offcourse).

    The Pinball Arcade table ratings

    Nice list! You see the usual suspects at the top, that could be read as though Farsight did a good job on recreating them or that they are popular tables regardless. On VP I was hooked solely on DMD-style tables, early/late 90's. Because of Farsight I discovered that there can be a lot of fun to...

    First impression

    I like this table, it certainly is a simple affair rulewise but it's nice to get in a rhytm where you go from shot to shot and race to race and it also feels like one of those tables that reward precise shooting by letting you control the flow. My best score was 187M but it only registered the...

    iOS Version 2.9.0 Bugs

    I reproduced this (with a score of 187M I might add... :-( ) on iPad2 iOS 6.1.3. It does not take the rollover into account. This also means the top score of 160M must be bogus. I hope this gets fixed soon because it's frustrating as hell!

    Bug iOS Version 2.8.0 Bugs

    It works fine for me if I just trap the ball on the right flipper and then hit the Vulcano target (without hitting anything else) , therefore I think it could be more of a timer malfunction, it seems to only register hits a fixed time interval after the ball is fed back to the right flipper. But...

    Tips & tricks

    Hi guys, I figure I'll try my hand at a tips and tricks posting. I have played Tee'd Off semicontinously after release and I'm quite "hooked" :rolleyes: There are four main important things to master: - plunging the ball should yield an automatic hole in one. This is not only a nice bonus at...
