Hardest Table in TPA

[Tales from the Crypt !!]

Its funny how people are saying bsd is hard because the first couple of times i played it i scored over 600 million and let me tell i must have been lucky because i cant even get close to beating my high score.But i like it just the way it is....sometimes you got just walk away and come back to it later

Don't think BSD is hard, just not very interesting..and the wizard goals seem unreasonable for me..only have 1/5 atm

 

[Dedpop]

I never liked the table IRL.
Still don't like it in TPA.
No fun to me.

BSD? Yeah it's not fun..not hard, but not fun

1. Big Shot. Still cant get the 250k goal on ps3 or vita have had it since it came out. Got it on ps4 tho, go figure
2. Genie. 3mill is absurd
3. Firepower. Short games
4. Phantom of the Opera. The 5th phantom mill and jackpot multiplier goals were super hard.
5. Dracula. Lightning flippers with monster gap.
6. Fish Tales. Same as bsd but I get longer games
7. Eldorado. Wish it was an EM bells and chimes version
8. Central Park. 2" stumpy flipper drain monster and I love it.

Would make a great tournament imo.

Honorable mention: LCA. REALLY hard... To stand

Once I focused on keeping the ball off the slingshots, I got the 250k goal after a couple games.

I have to say I am not a die hard horror fan... but I still love BSD.

OK a lot of BSD fans, but I'm still just saying it's not hard, I'm sticking to it. But I decided to go through my 51 tables and try to come up with difficulty based on wizard goals/high score list. Awarding one point for each wizard goal and high score spot occupied by myself, I determined the hardest table to be Cactus Canyon, with an embarrassing score of three (two wizard/one high score).

I think I have nine tables that I only score a four on. Most of those are for lack of playing time, with the exception of Haunted House, which is what I voted for in this poll. Also got a four on Twilight Zone, just a table I never really got the gist of. Another table I just don't get is White Water. My best score is like 330 million but I see people routinely score in the billions. I guess I need to read some instructions on that one.

Award for most ridiculous pre-loaded high score goes to El Dorado:City of Gold. I think it was like 3.1 million which would put it at #24 on the all time high score list. So you would need to play 5 of the top 30 games all time to eradicate the mysterious player from your list.

Can't really say for sure but it seems the most difficult wizard goal would have to be the 3 million score on Genie. Only 100 3 mil scores have been recorded, wonder if any of those were done when the person was still working on the standard goals, wouldn't that suck.

And lastly, the only two tables I have completed all wizard goals and own the entire high score list are Tales of the Arabian Nights and Big Shot.

I say EM and Early Solid State games are hard for me, games from 1986 and up I don't have any problems. For me I guess it's because I play the newer type games, so I have no trouble.

 

[Nat-1969]

OK after extensive research today I have a definitive hardest table: El Dorado:City of Gold hands down. Yeah people may discount this because it isn't anybodies favorite table but between the difficult wizard goals and not one but two hard pre-loaded high scores (one would be #24 on the all time high scores, the other is over 2 million to qualify for the 2 million point wizard goal). Yeah, this is the hardest table in TPA.

FT serves the ball on the right flipper and it's up to you to control it. BSD however does what it wants. Ball might drain without even a chance to do something about.

Genie-Got the 3M goal on PC, but it's still a redonkulous goal.
Goin' Nuts-The bonus and 360 sec goals are unreachable
Champion Pub-Broken TPA table + 2 ultimate challenge goals = play something else, and with better flow
Haunted House-2x on 3 levels at once? If it weren't such a drain monster....
BSD-Cannot get any, and I do mean any, wizard goals.
HRC-Too much drainage to make the super surprise and multi-adjective jackpots do-able.
POTO-I keep coming so close to 5th million ramp (should be 3 or at worst 4 IMO), and the 5x jackpot increase cannot be done, period dot!

Regarding Goin Nits, there is a way to backhand the captive ball. It's tough, but doable. It'll go right inbetween the pop bumpers, and missed shots will come right back to a trap on the left flipper. So if you can get it within 50 seconds every time, you could theoretically go for forever. A couple of the hardest tables I think are Champion Pib and Haunted House

 

[RushDude2112]

I chose Gorgar, I am having a really tough time with this table myself

 

[Rich Lehmann]

I don't know if it's the hardest but Champion Pub is definitely the worst table. I don't know how hard it is since I hate playing it.

 

[mpad]

CP is so much fun. Really love the fighting training etc implementation.
Bit of a drainer though.
Never made more than 4 fights or so...

 

[rehtroboi40]

I proudly voted for "something else". My "something else" is none other than High Roller Casino. Too much of a drain monster and too few extra balls. The super surprise is out of reach and as I've posted before, I despise that Super-duper-ultra-mega-turbo-cow of a-jackpot.

It would be a coin toss for me between either HH or BSD if there was no "something else" block. In HH, it's painful to try and light 2X on all three levels. As for BSD, that 300M coffin jackpot is worse than the Genie 3M goal-that should say a lot!

 

[JPelter]

Voted Champion Pub since it's the only table I never understood how to play at all, and still don't.

 

[PinballWizzard71]

Central Park due to the small flippers! Getting high scores requires quite a skill at the nudge!
