    Marvel Pinball / Zen Pinball 2 : cross-app table purchase? (PS3)

    I would not say Vengeance and Virtue is bad - in fact, X-Men is one of my favorites. X-Men - classic layout, lots of modes, good "real pinball" feel Thor - fun, but a long-player. Modes are fairly easy to complete. The S-shaped cross shot where you have to hit the start button to drop the ball...

    Does it make a difference what Android phone you run this on?

    A "mobile hardware good/bad/ugly" performance list might be a good thing to set up as a pinned thread. I can vouch for Pixel XL 1 running perfectly and smoothly, and iPad Air 1st gen being playable but with a significantly lower framerate.

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    Absolutely agree. I am in a good position now, maxed out on parts for packs 1-3 and all pack 4 tables at 3 stars. I should easily have the pack 4 tables maxed in parts before pack 5 drops. But new players coming in today will presumably get random parts across all tables; it will take ages to...

    New, extensive, update out: new menus/UI, lots of polish, fixes

    This update is great, it's a lot clearer what is going on and there are fewer clicks to navigate around with keyboard only. Picked up the starter pack on sale on Steam yesterday, it's an even better bargain right now with the summer sale discount. I'm personally really excited for the new...

    Volume 4 out on iOS

    My impression is that on Android, the initial release of the volume 4 build was so messed up that nobody saw the "plain old purchase" option - either it was left out on purpose or bugged and didn't show up for anyone. By the time they fixed it a few weeks later, I had already unlocked the volume...

    Master List of Issues -- Williams Pinball

    I have been going with the assumption that the first crate is actually the "hard" reward, whatever difference there is in the awards algorithm between the easy/medium/hard chests - if not, then having the reset put your first challenge on "hard" difficulty but only award the "easy" chest...

    BlahCade Pinball Podcast Daily Challenge Strategy Videos

    Agreed - if you have a failed attempt on a really hard challenge but it still outlines good strategy and/or demos something interesting (like triggering Secret Mania in Junk Yard for example) I would say it would definitely be worthwhile posting it. Especially for 1-ball challenges, which have a...

    BlahCade Pinball Podcast Daily Challenge Strategy Videos

    Just watched your first two videos, you absolutely should do these for all the tables and challenges as you develop approaches. Awesome job! That "Total Annihilation/loop to bumpers" strategy for AFM is a really good approach. I can't wait for the next video!

    Williams Pinball Vol. 4 – May 28 – White Water! Hurricane! Red and Ted's Road Show!

    Absolutely agree with everyone. When playing a Williams table on Zen I don't feel like it's a re-purchase at all, I feel like it's a new game with the same basic rules. The look and feel is entirely different, the strategies (what can you backhand, what can you hit on the fly vs. trap, how do...

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    Ok, less than 90 minutes after writing the post above, I opened the Android app, it did a little extra download at the loading screen, and now the "video for part" offer is there (and I got a Road Show part for it), and they have added parts for the new vol 4 tables to the regular daily...

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    I'm seeing the exact same thing on Android. I have never seen the "free part with ad" in the store. I'm at experience level 37. So I'm gathering that the "free part with ad" offer is being removed from the store when you have maxed out the parts for packs 1-3. Is the "free part with ad" only...

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    On Android, the timed challenge for last week ended last Thursday evening for me, and no new timed challenge has started as of this writing (Monday afternoon) - unlike last time the timed challenge ended, where a new one started up a few hours later. Standard daily challenges are unchanged, at...

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    On Android, I have never seen a "Free Part of the Day" anywhere - I believe someone said it is in the store area but apparently it does not appear at all if you have all the parts maxed for packs 1-3. Possibly this feature has been removed entirely...

    Volume 4 out on iOS

    On Android, I never saw the offer. That is very frustrating. I was totally ready to buy when they released, now I have all the new tables up to 2 stars so they have lost the sale.

    Is TPA alone enough for you, or are you also buying into Zen’s Williams app?

    They play completely differently. I used to think that Hurricane on TPA, for instance, was a really great, fast, smooth shooter. But playing it in Zen has made me it feel floaty. I do still play a bit of TPA for some of my favorite SS tables, Eight Ball Deluxe, Fathom, F14 etc. - there's still...

    Bug The Starfleet insignia below the Alpha Quadrant ramp never lights up

    This has been a bug since launch on iOS. I have reported it directly to Farsight, quite a long time ago, and there have been numerous bug fix releases since that time and it has not been addressed. My guess at this point is that it will never get fixed, but I would love to be surprised. A...

    The Pinball Arcade table ratings

    Mustang and AC/DC are both great implementations, and Mustang's rules are really good. In my opinion these two tables are the pinnacle for Farisght.

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    Love that idea - and you're right, I think a lot of people would spring for both the Pro and Premium/LE, even more so if there are differences in the rules and layout.

    Volume 4 out on iOS

    I have been vocal about my frustration since the Android version came out last week, but to Zen's credit they have made some really good improvements (particularly the hard parts cap prior to the pack 4 release, the 3 parts per table for challenge rewards in the timed challenges for the new...
