[QUOTE="Zaphod77, post: 147477, member: 2101"] When you are SURE you timed the flipper right and it goes cleanly into the shot next to the one you were aiming for you and loosing progress on the mode, you WILL rage. It pisses me off every single time, and makes the mode an exercise in frustration. See there are three different sweet spots for each shot, and which one works seems completely random to me. You guess wrong about which sweet spot, you hit the neighboring shot. You aim for the middle sweet spot for the shot you want, but you can just as easily hit one of the two next to it, and in bushman mode, that's BAD. This phenomena happens on real pinball games after they've been broken in as well, but then you rarely get screwed over by it because real designers don't inflict this hell on you. A good example of this is HS2. You can aim for the orbit and hit burn rubber cleanly instead, and vice versa, if the game isn't freshly waxed. if it is, you hit the post instead. [/QUOTE]
