    CC Tactics and Strategies

    Considering only about 1 shot in 6 makes it up either left or right ramp (as opposed to the middle one, which is near impossible to miss) that makes it one of the biggest causes of a drain for me. If I actually try to go actively for Polly, I'm almost sure to lose. The thing is, when I don't...

    Left and right ramps are probably the most difficult shots on the table :S

    How much playfield repetition can TPA stand?

    BK2000 isn't really that similar to BK.

    Goodbye XBOX

    I think that really depends on what kind of games you like to play. I think a majority of the games I have on my 360 aren't available for PC :)

    Table Pack #21 speculation

    Check out Asylum's output, they keep making movies like this. Usually they are either an obvious cheap knock-off of a big blockbuster, or an intentional "so-bad-it's-good" movie (which sort of ruins the point, though) about sharks: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:The_Asylum_films

    CC Tactics and Strategies

    I've been trying to play for combined lost mine and showdown multiballs, and it's really backfiring for me. The quickdraw targets are easy to hit, but I find that they result in drains too often, especilly the one on the left. Starting gold mine is pretty simple though, almost too easy, but at...

    The Humble Weekly Sale: Zen Studios

    The redundancies in FarSight's instructions seem to be due to the fact that they want the instructions to work as a reference manual, where you can look up any single part and get all the details they need, which I think is admirable. That's a problem to anyone who wants to read through all the...

    Table Pack #21 speculation

    The hint picture is usually related to the table of the month as well, so the tornado part might as well be related to Whirl Wind, yup.

    Bug Game reverts to launch view during Final Frontier

    While doedje makes some fair points, I don't think it applies in this case. If a bug is only relevant under certain conditions, or not critical for the use of the product, then other issues will unfortunately take priority. But at this point we are talking about a bug that pretty much results in...

    The Humble Weekly Sale: Zen Studios

    Yeah, the points that show up when you make a shot is a great form of feedback, that TPA would also benefit from (although it would be difficult/impossible to implement properly due to emulation)

    How do you do a disaster drop on Whitewater?

    According to this page ( http://www.pinballarcadeplayers.com/content/white-water ), the goal is "Collect a Disaster Drop Reward" I guess that just means shooting Disaster Drop three times to spot a hazard, or 6 to advance raft. Should be one of the simplest goals ever. I personally never shoot...

    THX-Phobia (fear of digital audio)

    Wow! Haven't heard Kode IV in ages

    Overrated?

    Wow.... Now i see what you guys mean! Apart from some annoying "digital" issues with flipper accuracy (I'm gonna make another post about that one of the next days, it happens on multiple tables, at least on PS3), I have enjoyed this table a lot, now that I finally decided to buy it on PS3...

    Bug Game reverts to launch view during Final Frontier

    I somehow managed to avoid the bug most of the time. I'm not sure what I did, but through a mix of various settings, it now only stays in plunger cam for a short while before returning to regular camera. The result is I can now play Borg multiball seriously, meaning I now get scores that could...

    Bug Game reverts to launch view during Final Frontier

    Holy crap... I finally bought this table on PS3, remember seeing this thread a few times. I was pretty shocked to see that this bug still exists. And not only does it happen a lot, it happens almost constantly, whenever ANY multiball is started! The game is practically unplayable, competitive...

    I'm certain it was a joke :P

    Outlanes - One of the features of the pinball we hated the most :D

    Are you serious? I've seen TONS of drains no one could have avoided. I've had the ball drain several times by it jumping OVER the flipper, during otherwise controlled play. Even the top players will tell you there are always situations where nothing could be done. That's pinball. edit: Or are...

    Table Pack #21 speculation

    Did FarSight say that they had something special planned for the end of the year? Sure, Fish Tales is a great table (providing they didn't include the lightning flippers!), but so's AFM, WH2O, WW, and really, the majority of tables they have put out this year . Fish Tales is probably the single...

    The Humble Weekly Sale: Zen Studios

    I bought it even if I'm never going to play them. Or, I would play them, but it's another "Steam only" deal. It's really sad that Humble Bundle has gone so far from their initial concept of DRM free games, but I still like to support pinball games in general, even if I'm not much for supporting...

    What tables did you play today?

    I just shoot for the saucers when they are lit, otherwise I keep going for the middle drop targets. They tend to bounce the ball to the left, causing it to hit a lot os juicy stuff up there (as well as lighting the bumpers), and hit the "shelf" in the top left side on its way down, ensuring a...
