Left ramp is a death trap

[Macca_96]

It was never like this on the real pin (I used to own it). On the real pin, if you dont make the ramp shot (not hard enough) and it rolls back down, the ball will swing to the left of the playfield. On PA, it will almost drain SDTM. Sometimes you might get lucky and it will bounce off the pin in the center (well most times lol) but it shouldnt do it at all.

Nudge as it comes off the ramp. Every machine is different, maybe the one Farsight have does this.

Yeah, I'm always ready to nudge when I hit that ramp.

Funny, I always nudge a failed Peasant ramp in MM without even thinking, but with T2, I always forget.

This. I've played T2s in real life that send the ball STDM from a failed left ramp. You can nudge away this problem effectively on TPA.

T2 I played was a drain pain, exactly as TPA. Just apply as above...

I love this about T2! Not played it enough in real life to know how it should behave, but the spiderman machine I play all the time behaves exactly like this and it also has that centre post which fools you into thinking the ball will bounce back up, but it always finds it way between the post and right flipper if you don't nudge. As soon as the ball enters that left ramp, all my spidersenses run wild both on T2 and Spiderman.

yeah the left ramp being a deathtrap happens on real games too. they got that right. one some the RIGHT one is the deathtrap instead.

Most ramps on 90's bally/williams are death traps, and we love them for it
