[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 285741, member: 134"] The flippers in 'zen' mode have the same angle as what is used in TPA (yes I did screen shots and compared when first released) [IMG]https://image.ibb.co/fDoMqK/tpa-vs-zen-JY.png[/IMG] But if you play in 'Arcade' mode or on mobile 'Pro physics', the flipper bats have a shallower angle that matches what you'd typically find in an arcade machine. And then of course there's all those other aspects of physics to make things tougher. On PC I play using Arcade, but on mobile I prefer easy because yeah, it's hard enough seeing a bb sized ball on a small screen with your thumbs in the way, now throw in brutal physics? Oh, and to anyone that prefers the lighting in TPA, I'll point out that the above image is how FarSight presents the table straight out of the box, no adjustments. Just yuck. And no amount of tweaking of the lighting is going to fix the colors and lack of contrast. Here's a shot showing the difference of flipper angle...
