[QUOTE="vikingerik, post: 238311, member: 3745"] HRC has no flow [i]in TPA[/i]. Because TPA tuned it so poorly. TPA's flippers can't shoot up the middle and can't make a rolling shot to the ramp. And every other shot except the slot machine is too tight: both orbits, and all the standup targets in Craps, Poker, and Roll & Win. You're supposed to make flow shots to those targets and orbits for the casino games. And you're supposed to have a good chance to regain control after doing so. But Farsight made the flippers and kickers too fast and strong and violent, most notably that extra set of kickers in the lower playfield. HRC's rules are great, aside from the randomness of the casino games, although the Cheat Game feature exists to help with that (which is enabled from ramp shots which are actually possible to flow and loop on the real machine.) I've played HRC as a real machine quite a bit and like it a lot, probably in Stern's top 5. It's just a shame Farsight tuned it so poorly yielding a result that just isn't fun to play. (Just realized this is the LAH forum/thread, apologies for the topic drift) [/QUOTE]
