[QUOTE="EldarOfSuburbia, post: 195112, member: 4106"] Try playing it on mobile sometime - it's a whole different (pin)ballgame. I've yet to crack a billion on mobile, but do so with regularity on PC. My best real score IRL is around 500M, and my mobile scores come out in that ballpark. It's swings and roundabouts. Is the Vault easier to hit? Yes. Is The Power more vicious? Absolutely. Most of the time the Vault is open, The Power is also active.... Don't forget this is video pinball, and video pinball is just inherently easier than real pinball. There's nothing you or Farsight or anyone can do about that, except tune the tables to be really hard out of the box, at which point you alienate casual players for whom even getting to one TTM is a pipe dream. Are you part of the target audience for TPA? Sure, without a doubt. But are you in the hump of the bell curve when it comes to ability? I'd say not; your scores suggest you're going to be more than 3 standard deviations from the mean, which puts you in "freak results" territory. [/QUOTE]
