Bug 200k Skill Shot Too Easy?

[goforthewall]

I'm *now* totally sure this *is* a bug - on my SGSII running Android ICS I can make the 200k skill shot every single time simply by pulling the plunger all the way back! I unfortunately haven't had the chance to play a real BoP machine, but I'm pretty sure that the highest skill shot value should not be the easiest to achieve, right?

 

[Extrema22]

Exact same thing for me. Also haven't played a original machine, can anyone confirm if it is really this easy in real life?

I'm on iOS and I'm wondering the same thing.

 

[jrolson]

Yup, I can get the 200k skill shot every time... to easy...

Correction: On my android tablet I get 25k if I pull back the plunger all the way. On my iphone 4 I get 200k.

 

[goforthewall]

If I pull back all the way I get 25,000. I find it pretty tricky to get 200,000. (iphone 4)

that's weird... every time I pull back all the way, the 200,000 are guaranteed!

Same with me!!!

Guaranteed 200k Shots on both my IOS platforms (Ipad and 3GS) . Hope it gets fixed soon, because you can get some silly multipliers going with al the possibilities for extra balls (had a 17x mulitplier going without really knowing the table yesterday) although in the grand scheme of 1-billion shots it might not matter all THAT much

I've yet to get anything except 200K on my iPad 2.

It's actually kinda hard for me to get on my 3rd gen iPod Touch. It seems if I quickly pull it back and let go I can get 200k sometimes, but if I pull it back, hold, then release it's 25k. Seems a good difficulty level for me.

 

[Patrick McBride]

OK, let me update that... just loaded it now and tried pulling back, holding, then releasing and it got the 200k every time. I could have sworn it was going in 25k before when I tried that.

 

[dyleck]

I haven't noticed that earlier but I can confirm this bug. Just tried that 10 times and had 200k for all tries.

 

[FurVid]

Can hit it around 90% of the time on current gen iPod Touch, but only about 10% on iPad 1.

 

[Brian Clark]

odd. I hit it almost 100% of the time on the iPad 1. The one time I didn't, I purposely missed the shot just to see if I could hit anything else.

 

[Shaneus]

Okay... trying again on my 4S, it almost seems completely random whether it wants to hit 200k or 25k. Like, TOTALLY random. Some games 200k is all I'll hit, others, 25k.

 

[IdontHave50cents]

Well looks like they fixed thus in the update. RIP easy 200,000.

 

[George Klepacz]

I can't get it at all now. My scores have dropped dramatically.

 

[Epsilon]

Heh...on the 360 it took me probably like 40 tries to get this goal to pop, and I think it was just luck when I did it. The plunger "resolution" is really spotty in this game. Some tables are fine but others it's like it treats an analog plunger like a digital switch.

Plunger is jumpy on the Xbox, it's almost like the deadzone is too big.

 

[laughing_lunatic]

can anyone confirm if it is really this easy in real life?

I can confirm that it's NOWHERE near as easy on the PS3/XBOX. Takes some very delicate plunger manipulation.

The XBOX version seems to have a "jump" when pulling the plunger back, almost like it skips the first 20% power, making it even trickier. I get the 200,000 maybe one in 5, on either PS3 or XBOX.
