    Unplayable Slowdown After Firing Cannon in AC/DC Switch Version

    While playing docked, the game runs very slowly after firing the cannon. It never fully recovers. Other tables run perfectly fine outside a moment of slowdown in Ghostbusters during multiball intensity. AC/DC has serious issues. Also, my Switch is extremely hot after playing docked. I have...

    Switch Version Doesn't Sell Individual Table Packs, Only Seasons

    I was going to buy some of my favorite tables on Switch but Farsight is smoking some good stuff if they think I'm double/triple-dipping on whole seasons. I won't support this version until table packs are available. Some people are also reporting framedrops undocked.

    It's Jan. 7th 2018 & SPA for iOS still has a huge, ugly joystick overlay from Nov. 2

    It's Jan. 7th 2018 & SPA for iOS still has a huge, ugly joystick overlay from Nov. 2 Over two months and there has been no update for Stern Pinball Arcade to fix this glaring and, frankly, embarassing error. Of course, Ghostbusters is still totally borked with missing textures and mode lights...

    A Plea To Farsight: Quality Control Needs To Improve, Respect Your Customers

    10 months in the making Ghostbusters is the most messed up table in a long time. All 3 previous Stern tables had/have problems and bugs but Ghostbusters is easily the worst - baffling considering the time spent on it. Major gameplay-effecting issues. Stern Pinball Arcade is still a total...

    Ghsotbusters on iOS: You can't choose your skillshot

    The game doesn't register flipper input before you plunge so you can't choose the skillshot. That's a huge part of the game. Also, seems you can play the free trial with no score limit :) I'm happy to do so until they fix the bugs. Edit: seems maybe the score limit is just generous. I was...

    Ghostbuster now on iOS. Report problems here.

    First thing I noticed is that the audio quality on iOS is awful with noticeable compression and warbling. Second thing I noticed is that you can't choose your skillshot because the game doesn't let you use the flippers before you plunge. Any input registers as the plunger pre-plunge. That's a...

    Missing Sports Themes & Suggested Tables

    Just about every sport has been used as a pinball theme. TPA has many representations but it's still missing quite a few and, among those few, there's some great tables. First, let's see what we have: Pool/Billiards: Big Shot Eight Ball Deluxe Cue Ball Wizard Baseball: FT's Big Hurt...

    Frame Hitching on every table

    It's been this way for a long time now but I'm really getting sick of it. Basically, on every single table the game will periodically stutter or "freeze" for a fraction of a second, usually when the ball is moving quickly. It's noticeable and distracting. Farsight support is worthless. I'm on...

    Fathom Update Live on iOS, Can't Download/Buy Table

    When tapping on the Fathom icon you will get a "You Must Be Connected To The Internet" error. Additionally, the Fathom icon is not listed under Season 7 in the store. It's always something.

    WCS is here...sorta.

    World Champion [Cup] Soccer Released On iOS. Completely Broken, Can't Access Table. Clicking on the table icon from any place in the UI takes you to the Custom Ball DLC screen. Trying to click out of that menu crashes the app. You can't buy it, you can't play it. Only Farsight, right?

    I Want AC/DC Pro in SPA

    So call me crazy but I think the Pro model is more fun. I recently had the opportunity to spend some time with one and it just plays a lot faster. Lack of TNT drop targets and no lower playfield makes a huge difference. The lower playfield is boring and really slows the game down.

    I Was Wrong About Jurassic Park

    It's a beautiful mess. The playfield is just a rip-off of Whirlwind but with worse flow. The music is absolutely psychotic. The artwork is all over the place in quality. The callouts are a weird mix of actual samples and terrible soundalikes. The DMD has some strange things going on. The T-Rex...

    How Is The Original Pro Pinball Still So Good!?

    I just installed Big Race USA, Fantastic Journey and Timeshock and played them for the first time. I'm just blown away by these physics from 1997. It's crazy! These games are still really fun and hold up very well, considering their age. I have played the Ultra Edition of Timeshock many times...

    Cheapest PC Specs For Best DX11 TPA Performance?

    I am seriously considering building a mini cab and I'd really like to run the DX11 version of TPA on it. My laptop is what I currently use to play DX11 TPA and it's a mid-range Lenovo. I can mostly run TPA at full speed but I get framedrops and screen-tearing on my external monitor (using it...

    Dr. Who: Master Of Time Is Now Available!

    Pleasantly suprised to see the Gladiators Pack and the Dr. Who MoT pack in today's update! (Btw, TPA's FB page said Gladiators was going to be delayed on TPA's 99 cent app. Guess not, Merry Christmas!) A quick run through the trial has me suitably impressed! This is a far better and more...

    [SPA] App Unresponsive When Entering Initials On iOS. Forced To Close App.

    I can only verify this for Star Trek so far, but both times I got a high score I was unable to do anything on the screen in which you enter your initials. Tapping does not scroll, the action button does not select, there are no buttons to exit to menu. You are stuck there. You have to...

    [SPA] The iOS Version Looks Terrible

    UPDATE: I bought Star Trek because I love that table and this looks much better. The action button is still squished and too high :( There *is* some new lighting effects I've never seen on TPA! When the ball passes over the mode lights they reflect off the surface of the ball! Looks really...

    [SPA] Version 1.02 Patch is live! (12/02/16)

    What a nice surprise! A two week turnaround is pretty good for Farsight! "Various Fixes" Patch is 1.343 GB. I'm assuming it's basically redownloading the tables. Will update with observations in a bit. Feel free to chime in! HERE WE GO! Table Brightness and Ambience Sliders are IN!! Ball is...

    [Corrected] Old TPA Tables in SPA For PS4 Are [NOT] Unchanged, [NO] Old Physics

    As I said in the impressions thread, Ripley's and SST still do not have the 3.0 flipper physics in SPA. In fact, they seem pretty much unchanged whatsoever. Do not buy them if you already have them in TPA.
