[QUOTE="BlueMarble, post: 127906, member: 1430"] I think giving the players options is the way to approach this. If a player wants a dark table with a bright ball that should be the player's choice and you should be able to turn that option on if you would like to. Everyone's television sets are set differently in terms of brightness and contrast (in addition to screen response times and things like that), so it will look different for everyone. I love playing with the setting on dark on PS4. But I also wouldn't mind being able to see the ball better if I was completely focused on getting a good score. In fact I think that would be the best way to play. Dark settings with a brighter ball that is easy to track with my eye. I sometimes change the ball color on iPad to yellow or green so that it shows up better because I lose track of the dim silver ball on the busy tables' artwork. Ball reflection and color would also be a great option to have available on PS4 (and the Steam version as things get updated to match PS4). Of course the best option is to play real pinball, but in that case you aren't dealing with screen response times and framerates! So, the visibility of the ball isn't an issue there. We need options available in order to overcome the limitations of simulation. [/QUOTE]
