It's out! (PC Initial Release Discussion And Feedback)

[Kevlar]

I'm not really interested in playing TPA on my PC as I'm going to get it on PS4 but installed it last night to see how it looked. I must say I'm well impressed on the whole, runs surprisingly well on my crusty old PC even with PP and 4xAA on 1080p, looks pretty good too. Some tables look better than others though, quite a few have more than a wiff of PS3 pink about them and some textures could do with a rez bump.

Hell of a package for someone new to TPA getting all the table releases upto date in one hit. Can't wait for the PS4 version now.

Has everyone got there KS tables they pledged toward to, mine aren't showing up!?

Did you send an email to support?

I'm using a matcatz arcade stick with Xpadder but TPA keeps defaulting back to controller input when I only want to control it with the mouse and keyboard.

Best game ever! The PC version is now my main platform for TPA.

Damn I just had a great game on Scared Stiff and than the freaking ball can't be found after my last ball even with Tilt. Can't finish the game

I guess that's a realistic feature of Pinball Arcade. A great game being ruined by a malfunction.

The people complaining about european prices are probably forgetting that we pay VAT for all steam purchases. It varies by country but at least where I live it's 24%. So the season pack prices are actually only 0.5€ more expensive than the US prices once you account for that.

Ah okay. For some reason you guys seperate that stuff from the price.

Inferno, I think you misunderstood him.
Pelter lives in Finland not in the US.
He pays in Euro.

I'm getting the same thing too (ERROR) in price area and goes back to table menu! Also registered but everytime i try to login it fails

Phew...thanks for the reply mbcrimpy....thought I was going nuts lol!!

 

[xNiCeGuYx]

Btw, where are the HOF scores???

 

[Gozer]

Can someone explain to me or post a link to an explanation as to how the Farsight online leaderboards work?

Are the scores pulling from all platforms or just PC?
How does comparing scores with friends work?

 

[infernogott]

How can I add friends from here to compare scores?

I played TOTAN and my KS'd T2 last night and had a great time. Sampling the demo tables I was pretty happy too. The game looks great, and I had a few crashes, but I think that was mostly a consequence of screwing around with the graphics options. Given that I don't play this game portably that often, I might switch this to be my main TPA platform.

Other than the DLC purchasing issues which has been covered extensively in the other thread, I'd really like them to add support to friends in Steam. Plenty of great ways to compare scores on there, and it doesn't rely on facebook integration.

Not 100% sure but I think there's a thread with Steam usernames around here somewhere.

It's become my main platform as well, even though I can't pick up any of the table packs until the 15th, I'm still going to enjoy the snot out of ToTAN and T2 as well.

Any way to turn off mouse click activated flippers? Not the biggest deal in the world, but I love using the mouse as a plunger and it looks stupid have the flippers go off at the same time. I'm also concerned it will interfere with "hold down left flipper" plunging options.

Isn't there a Friends filter option on the leaderboard screen? I remember seeing that in the beta before leaderboards were working.

Slightly off topic but why wasn't there a paid (2.99?) version of TPA available on steam like there was on iOS? Also, was ToM a kickstarter because when I finished the demo last night it said to buy it was 8.99 for the one table (?!)

That's actually a bug in the description. $8.99 is TOM, Ripleys and Black Hole. Going to fix that in the next patch. It doesn't matter if you buy TOM, Black Hole, or Ripley's it'll give you all 3 with that purchase.


If you don't have access to Kickstarter rewards (saw a post from lettuce), please email support@pinballarcade.com and let them know

Season 2: Price: 36,99 €, US: $39.99 -> Converted to EUR: 29,59 €

The Cab support will most likely happen before any "HD" Remake.

 

[Dan Jaquint]

This is working really well for me in my hardware portrait mode in cab, but is there any way to anti-stretch the resolution for now? Very exciting.
