[QUOTE="rob3d, post: 153446, member: 18"] The thing is digital pinball is already easier by default, because of the lack of true randomness and mechanical elements. Making a table even easier on top of that makes the game pointless. Twilight Zone suffers from this. I'm a terrible pinball player and I've LITZ'ed twice a game on multiple occasions and placed 11th in the TZ backers tourney. Deliberately making a table easier is overkill, is gonna be easier simply because of the nature of digital pinball. Addams family does not have the type of draw that Star Trek or terminator do. It will not bring in people who have never heard of pinball, quite the opposite. The only people clamoring for this table are already pinball enthusiasts, or perhaps one or two people who have happened to like the movie. You don't need to pander to beginners to make a table like this approachable. Tuning it the way an out of the box machine would play is just fine. No one is saying tune it to papa tourney standards. We've asked for this repeatedly and have been told no. It requires doubling the workload and they are a small company. The best we've gotten was the possibilty of activating tourney settings in the rom, but that only amounts to things like disabling extra balls and lowering jackpots etc. [/QUOTE]
