[QUOTE="Slam23, post: 248216, member: 896"] The best I can manage is getting the ball right on the tail end of the banner on both sides. That's maybe 0,5 cm. I don't know how to make videos on my iPad while I play and post them, but I hope this description gives an idea. I can approximate the nudge technique but only full force, so it's nowhere near as subtle as with soft nudges. I think full alley passes are possible, but I have to practice them some more to see if they are a dependable shot. Now I often hit edges of the slingshots and flippers. I'm curious why you state that I have to take my complaint to Farsight. I wasn't aware of me complaining about something. If you refer to the difference between analog and digital nudging: it's just a fact that analog nudging gives way more control and there are a lot of youtube videos that prove that. It's also a fact that platforms differ maybe not so much in input lag (they probably do) but that the spatial resolution of input differs greatly. I'm not a technical guy but I remember VikingErik making that comparison with the PC platform saying that the PC has vastly superior resolution, which makes for more precise imput.

For the record: I like playing on my iPad because of the portability and I don't think I could be in the same league as say a Tarek Oberdieck even if I played on PC. So there's that :) so no complaints here [/QUOTE]
