    Fear of playing outside (of a network)

    I've never played "on the network" so this wouldn't/doesn't bother me at all.

    ipad, iphone, kindle-compared to PS3, XBOX......

    Some would beg to differ with you. The PS3 version has it's own issues, notably flipper lag depending on the system/TV/controller used(etc.). Having a dedicated game controller & big screen TV is not really the definitive answer and may not appeal to all. Have a look at the "Flipper lag theory"...

    1.2.2 Now Out! (Feedback & Discussion Thread)

    @pinballchris: I know you said you "cleared all active apps"...you might want to try a non-destructive reset (won't delete anything nor reset any settings). Press and hold (& continue to hold) both the home and lock buttons on the iPad until you see the Apple logo (ignore any on-screen...

    No hope for planet earth (iOS PBA user reviews)

    I agree. Definitely *not* 5 star. Fix the old lingering bugs (Circus Voltaire especially ;)) and fix (allow portrait mode) the UI...then many more 4 & 5 star reviews will be attainable.

    AGE of TPA players

    Just an observation but the age groups are a little odd & may be skewing the results. They are currently: 0-10 10-20 20-30 30-40 40-50 50-60 60+ If your age is say 40, you fall into two categories: 30-40 & 40-50. Since I am 50, I fall into two categories (40-50 & 50-60) but chose the older...

    AGE of TPA players

    As was mentioned by someone else here as well, I played close to zero pinball in the arcades way back. For me it was all about Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr, Ms. Pac Man and all the other video games that sucked up my quarters. Pinball Hall of Fame, The Pinball Arcade and Zen got me playing...

    AGE of TPA players

    50 here but I don't really feel like it...my internal clock has been incorrect for as long as I can remember. :cool:

    Difficulty on TZ and star trek

    Thanks Sean. I think I've found a pic of the barrier... The white, two-post, two rubber band bumper/barrier between the red and orange pop bumpers, correct?

    Difficulty on TZ and star trek

    Which bumper(s) exactly are the ones mentioned? I tried searching around for an answer but came up with nothing...:confused:

    Difficulty on TZ and star trek

    Agreed. It's much more enjoyable to me than TZ, which is simply brutal. Still fun though...:cool:

    1.2.2 Now Out! (Feedback & Discussion Thread)

    Here's a little tip to get the screen from portrait to landscape a bit easier. Rather than rotate the screen clockwise/counterclockwise vertically to get to portrait, simply lay the screen flat horizontally (tip the top of the iPad toward your knees/feet, pivoting at the bottom edge), then lift...

    iOS - Bug CV crashing constantly whenever I want to start it up.

    Have you tried resetting the device? Not power-cycling but resetting... Press *& hold* both the Home & the lock screen/power button until you see the Apple logo (ignore any other messages you may see). You will NOT lose any data, music, apps or user settings with this type of reset. Also try...

    1.2.2 Now Out! (Feedback & Discussion Thread)

    If you've started a game, you won't be able to switch between portrait/landscape until you quit the game. At the game's main screen, either rotate the iPad (if lock switch is off) from landscape to portrait a few times or use the switch a few times. I don't have any issue switching between the...

    PS3 - Request PS3 Question....

    On the PS3, I believe the tables are all embedded in the main program. When you download it or update it, you automatically get all the updated tables available for the PS3. Purchasing a table merely unlocks the table (as mentioned, already in the program) for full use in the game.

    No Tables Loading on new mini device

    I'll be adding one more iPhone 4 to the current mix in the next couple of days (5 iDevices total) so I'll see how it goes (the theoretical problem supposedly comes with *more than* 5 iDevices). I currently have the iPad 2, iPad 3, iPhone 4 & iPhone 5 on the same AppleID.

    New interface thoughts and comments.

    The new interface itself is fine for me...yes, it could be better. The graphics are adequate and do the job although sadly with more screen taps than are needed to jump right into a table. Yes, like others here, I'd much rather have a screen of direct-access icons but if that would be a problem...

    iOS v1.2.2 Landscape-based everything.

    I believe I've found the trick. Rotate the screen to portrait (whichever way, side switch or physical rotation) *at the table's menu*. It won't rotate to portrait *if you've started a game* and it's in landscape. If you use the side switch, you may have to toggle it a couple of times to get it...
