I just had a minor bug that I may never be able to reproduce.
It didn't affect the actual gameplay at all, but I felt it was worth mentioning.

In my last game of Mustang, by some freak coincidence, I managed to get two balls into the scoop at the same time, one right after the other.
And while in there, the balls did not have collision with each other. They just overlapped, like a Venn diagram.
I even nudged the table just to be sure, and yep, they moved--and then just about completely overlapped one another, looking like a single ball.
Once they were ejected, one after the other, the game played as normal, with ball caroms and everything.

But here's the weird thing: Later that same game, I got two balls in the scoop AGAIN--and this time, they DID have collision.
Because of this, one was just barely hanging on in there, as if it could pop out with the slightest nudge. I didn't risk it, but as before, once they were ejected, the game proceeded as normal.

I have never had that happen in any other Farsight pinball game or table.
Again, a minor thing that didn't have any serious effect, but it was so weird I just had to share it.

After the brightness slider update, I will occasionally hear screechy sound bursts. Happened on POTO, HRC, HD and LAH. They seemed random, but it might be from pausing during the game to fine tune the brightness levels.

Kinda curious to know if anyone else has experienced these sound bursts.

High Roller Casino

I haven't seen this mentioned, but the flippers seem to be a little on the weak side.

PS4 version.

Mustang (PS4)

-when entering a high score, after the third letter in the initial, the DMD shows a buggy screen that flips between your high score and an image of two people looking out of a windshield of a car. This happened both times that I earned a high score, so I am guessing this is 100% reproducible.

This seems to be fixed in the latest update. However, all of the local high scores on Mustang were replaced by the default ones. Completed table goals were in tact. I checked several other tables (Frankenstein, AC/DC, and Star Trek) and they still have my local scores in tact. This bug only seemed to affect Mustang.

Anyone else having this issue?

Just played some post-patch LAH.

It's playing the music during the Dynamite Feature animation.

Again.

How the hell does this keep happening?
Why have patches TWICE reverted Last Action Hero to an earlier build?!

By any chance, does it have the "MOVE THE CR---" interruption?

Just checked it again. Yes it does.

Except now I think it's even shorter: "MOVE THE--" *tong*

Welp. Time to re-copy and paste LAH from Pinball Arcade's Master List, since it has exactly the same problems as on TPA. (You'd think they'd leave LAH alone. Apparently not.)

Also, apologies for not updating as often. I can't see the issues myself on the newer tables (other than the videos that are already up), and I can't tell what's been fixed in the new revisions.

Version 1.02 (PS4) Fixes:

  • The ball seems to be very dull or dark, without having proper reflections/mapping.
  • AC/DC: Missing flasher effect in the pop bumper area.
  • Star Trek: Lights on the apron are not correct, in accordance to each of the 6 missions.

New Bugs:

Last Action Hero: (NOTICE: This table now has the same bugs as in Pinball Arcade; it seemingly got reverted to an earlier build.)

  • "MOVE THE CR---" (Explanation: After the crane arrives at its destination, the stopping sound interrupts the rest of the introductory sounds.)
  • Helicopter sound does not stop upon the attempt/completion of the skill shot.
  • Main music continues to play, even after a Dynamite Feature is collected and a mode is thus awarded with supposed different music.

A few mistakes in the Star Trek instructions:

It says that extra ball lights at warp 3. It actually lights at warp 7.

Under Vengeance Scoring and Vengence Battle, it says that they are both the second vengeance mode. Vengeance Scoring is 2nd and it should say Vengeance Battle is the third

I just played Mustang again (ps4 version) and the local leaderboards reset again. So, It seems that it isn't saving scores for just this particular table.

PC Version:

  • Settings outside of the game are not saved from game to game
  • Controller settings are not saved from game to game
  • When trying to select menu items in the controller setting menu with mouse or controller, the selected item moves up/down 2 line items instead of one.
  • Leaderboards seem to be broken. I have a score of 306k on Mustang as per Leaderboards, but I've had 112M.
  • Local High Scores are not saved
  • Standard Goals are not recognized

By the way, just checked: The setting files/High Score Files in My Games have been created.

When I think about it: Not recognizing goals/Local High Scores/Leaderboards could have something to do with the table being in "Free Table of the month" mode. On Frankenstein it works, although the Leaderboard score is taken from the TPA version.

PC version: extra flipper on Starship Troopers doesn't work - seems like it is not mapped to buttons even though in control menu it is.
and soooooo much bugs, lack of features of real tables and mispresentation.. i'll not even start to think about buying this until this stinking pile will be fixed.
