That sort of makes sense to me. Do Super Jets keep going until a drain or is there a time limit on them?
Although the thing stopping me getting a high number of RTUs at the moment is the Martian Multiball., Sometimes I get this lit a ton of times by Stroke of Luck (either directly or via the...
Ive just hit 142 Billion on the PS3. Reckon there could be more, but still way shy of a trillion.
Im still having problems with the right outlane drain coming from a ball that nearly makes it up the Annihilation Jackpot ramp. Whats the best nudge for this?
Also, this maybe a question for those...
Ive used the word Hack previously because I simply don't know how they are done, so have always assumed they were deliberate. This thread is quite eye-opening.
Ive also found the leaderboards quite frustrating to use.
(1) A lot of my scores don't register - Im starting to wonder if I could find...
I don't know if this is still going on the Android - but this is still happening on the PS3. It happens when you activate Multiball WHEN MARTIAN ATTACK IS STILL HAPPENING. The right flipper works though.
I've been playing this a lot recently and am currently on 90 Billion (on the PS3).
There are still a few 'rules' I'm not clear on - could somebody answer these easy questions
(1) What are the rules for Super Jets for the 2nd RTU onwards. If I roll through two sets of Super Jets before I get to...
Ive wanted the fixed camera controls for quite some while now.
But anyway, the next stage for me would be 'Timed pinball'
For instance on AFM, how about a stats screen under the table menu for:
Shortest time to Rule The Universe
Shortest time between Total Annihilations
Longest single Total...
The PS3 bombed initially because Blu-Ray was an unknown technology, and for the price they wanted for it on release, it was poor VFM given the number of games it had. It is now considered better than the XBox, because it is considered a very good BluRay player (though still an 'average' games...
My gaming style has changed recently and I really do think now is the time for FS to invest in some QA. Previously I would play one table a lot at the expense of the other tables, but now Im jumping from table to table and it really is obvious that TPA has bug and consistency issues. With a...
Dont get me wrong Im not claiming to be a TZ ace. Maybe our experiences are different.
I played TZ as a student and students are notoriously tight with their pound coins.
TZ stayed in the Union for all three years I was there. This wasnt because the Union wanted to have a table that racked up...
YEah, Id go for that. I have similar problems with RBION - I can get tired playing it now.
Not sure how your proposal would work in practice. If, as suggested, TZ makes the bumper drains more prevalent - I consider that adding just a level of cheapness to the machine and Im no fan of cheapness...
Well exactly.
It seems to me that the solution to the easiness of TZ is to encourage cheap drains - Im not sure that this is the right way to go. Video pinball is different to arcade pinball, and if the opportunity to increase the fun of a table arises then I see no reason why Farsight shouldnt...
For the PS3:
Customisable Camera Buttons or the option to disable them during play (ie setting them up beforehand). I am endlessly accidentally pressing O with my thumb.
Can the PS3 title screen be more similar to the Android. The Android is so much smarter.
All the text screens are clunky on...
Isnt the highest score on the PS3 something like 3 Billion+? I take it the top one is yours!
Im on 900 Million and always discount the 10Billion+ mobile scores because I assume they are hacks. I could probably get higher as only now am I consistently getting South America and the 2x playfield...
GEnerally its all about learning the tables, but in particular:
[a] Always learn where the extra balls are and go for them first. On TPA also go for the Specials. There is usually an easy Extra Ball on every table - you just need to learn where it is - this is your priority
[b] Most tables have...
Can we have an expansion on the note here please.
I have bought and downloaded - only have the installation pack for the PSP and the PS3 game does not automatically update.
Is there a trick to this? If so - what?
Hi Joshua - Good Lists. Thanks for this. I have a few comments regarding tables I would swop from the first list to the second.
1. Revenge from Mars is a gimme in the Top 100. Its by no means a great table, but in terms of 'pinball history' its an interesting one.
2. Id be amazed if we ever see...
I sometimes keep getting damsel ramps just to get the surfer girls 'B1tchin!'.
Pretty much all the Duke of Bourbon lines make me wish he was the first castle more often.
It depends what sort of table you like.
Off the console, this table is one of the best because the fact that virtually all your shots are loops or ramps (you arent really encouraged to visit Merlin's Magic that frequently) really suits the arcade and the game gives you a lot feel good moments...
I agree with all these.
I ALWAYS hit the temple ramp from a trapped left flipper shot unless the ramp is unlit and getting Big Points would spoil another line.
If the lane is lit, you trap the ball again and get another shot up the same ramp.
If its unlit - you get the rolling shot to the...
