The light bulb is also missing from the "Heart of Rock 'n' Roll" plastic even though it still flashes. As far as I know, the "Jackpot Ready" plastic never flashes and as you pointed out, it's missing the light bulb as well.

And again...please soften the contrast on the white elements of both tables, especially the flippers, as they are somewhat distracting at the level of contrast they are currently set at.

@FarSight...while I understand you guys are trying to get back on track with monthly table pack releases, please don't rush these tables out if they're not finished yet. The Dr. Dude table, while almost complete and already plays great, still needs a little work as most of us have pointed out.

I would love to see these kinds of small things get ironed out before the official release later this week / month. I'm generally highly attentive to detail, so these little things tend to nag at me when I see them.

Had a quick game of Dr. Dude. Not perfectly smooth, but much, much better, even during multiball.

Firepower (in portrait mode with camera view 2), was on ball 2 with 5x multiplier (took me a while to get this goal) and i enabled multiball. during MB one ball drained and i shot one up to the top lock above and to the right of the FIRE rollover lanes (least i think that's where i shot it) the accumulated bonus then promptly collected and (again i think) Firepower announced "1 million points, you win" (don't hold me to this exact wording). Then the game ended to highscore registration with one ball up the top of table and one ball active in lower table (i think on a flipper). registered a score of only 573,080 which was what was showing on the display.

A bit disappointing not to be able to continue with the two balls in play, and of course the third ball still to play. IPDB user comments has nothing to say on the subject

Hey, had the exact same thing happen to me on firepower the other day too! but it had nothing to do with the bonus multiplier only due to the multiball. And it only had this once all other multiballs drains within seconds, haha.

Edit: Mine had to do with collecting the firepower bonus (the middle shot that is).

Me too ... The seam in the middle of Dr. is killing me. Hope its fixed before release because its a pretty bad one. Don't know how those keep sneaking into final releases. :(

Update due in June, but I can save more than € 10 a month if I don't get a new phone. Might put that money into a Nexus 7 or 10. :)

I can vouch for the Nexus 7 - plays Great! I think a replacement one is coming early summer though.
Might save a bit of money myself at update, and go to an S3, rather than getting the latest latest.

A very weak launch in Firepower can let the ball exit the launch, but leave the camera stuck in ball launch mode.

Verified on my Asus TF700T

Edited to add that flippers don't work, for what it's worth

Portrait mode

Camera 2 setting for both plunger and table

Kindle Fire HD 7

FP - Multiplayer Mode
Accomplishments seem to go to next player in line, except for player number 1. This includes lock lights center targets, and FIRE / POWER.

Occasionally, one of the center target lights will be unlit with new player, and stay unlit through ball. This won't carry over to the next player.

Ball ejects out of top hole, and as if on tracks, quickly goes down the "R" lane, each and every time. I don't remember that behavior on the real pin.

Flippers are way too WHITE. Also, I can confirm that the camera issues in portrait are on the KF HD as well. Otherwise, loving the table.


Can you Android beta testers try out multiplayer mode and see if you can find the same issues? Cheers.

Ok, that was odd. Had crappy first ball, and then Player Two got the P1 center targets AND all locks lit. KF HD

Edit: Yes, it seems like P1 is the only one playing an honest game. Any thing that P2-P4 accomplish does not carry over to Player 1.

Dr Dude, multiplayer. After Major Dude multiball, drop in FPS causing stuttering. No way to enter initials for 2nd high score

Edit: I've never played this table before, and it has its charm. :)

Device - Nexus 7 Stock JB4.2.1 - rooted.

Table - Firepower

Description - strange multiball bug. Whilst on 3rd ball, I'd activated 3 ball multiball, drained 1 ball, played a bit longer, drained another, was cradling the remaining ball and doing something else simultaneously @ work. Suddenly another 2nd ball was dropped into play (I didn't see where from), but when one of these 2 balls drained, the table thought all balls had drained and game ended.

Frequency of occuance - once so far.

:) got a lot on at work at present have you Nik ? hopefully, you always have a boss key strategy prepared just in case req'd


..... but when one of these 2 balls drained, the table thought all balls had drained and game ended.
also had my game end in a similar fashion, only for me, i'd only lost one ball from three, and was only playing ball 2.

when i think what i might have scored :)

audio in Firepower

Firepower..... just been comparing with PHoF TWC version

The graphics in TPA are a huge improvement.

as for sound, the mechanical clanks of the ball hitting the guide rails, when falling into the ball trough, being shot from the plunger to the stops above the roll-over lanes, hitting the stand-up targets in centre of playfield, and the general noise of the ball rolling around on the table seem mostly to be significantly toned down if not absent in TPA. Can we not have these mechanical sounds also in TPA ?

the lack of action on the pop-bumpers, already mentioned previously by others, is also very noticable in it's absence

As for the ambient noise and that menacing drone that increases in intensity and in pitch..... this is most excellently done..... it unsettles my play every time

Laughing :D - I was eating dinner at my desk on my break actually, when an email flashed up.
I'm too conscientious!

I think this has been mentioned for Android, and I want to confirm it for the Amazon release as well. On Dr Dude, the "jumper bumpers" have been given a tranquilizer. -- Kindle Fire HD 7

Doesn't look like we're getting animated jumper bumpers, no version has animation so far including the 360 video Farsight has put out.

After the excellent Attack from Mars and Genie release last month, this is very disappointing to me. Definitely going in the wrong direction.

we are a bit short manned this month and I am getting pulled off to take care of another project but the issues are being logged. And before you say to hold back on the releases and fix bugs, i like getting paid ;) But like I said they are being logged and will be taken care of eventually.

Gotcha. Well except for Multiplayer mode on FP, the tables are certainly playable. We know you guys are doing what you can, Ryan.
