No New PS3 Tables Today?

[DokkenRokken]

Not wanting to speak for Byte or anything, but I think he meant that future updates were supposed to be easier to implement post-superpatch. I think I noticed improved sound quality on a few of the tables but that might just be me. I thought there might be a chance that Farsight would improve the sound on the PS3 version as they're supposed to be sorting it out on the PS4 version.

In any case, I'm loving the new tables

If so, my bad.

I figured he was talking about the old updates.

 

[DokkenRokken]

Yes the lighting trick on High Speed is there.

Indeed, which is literally the only fun thing about that table.

Again, I'm hoping the sequel is a lot better. So far, I honestly don't get all the hype?

Just a quick heads up, the PS Vita Pro Packs for Black Knight 2000 and WHO Dunnit are currently listed at £3.99 and £3.29 respectively, presumably a cock-up on Sony's part, so just grab the cheaper PS Vita option even if you don't own one, as the crossbuy will entitle you to the PS3 version as well.

I have downloaded, and installed them, and they're working fine.

Speaking of "new" bugs (which appeared after the superpatch), US folks, have you the broken instructions on Pin*Bot? (see http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/8383-PS3-EU-Instruction-is-not-working)

 

[BBIAJ]

The instructions are appearing for me here in the UK.

Steve Ritchie table.

I enjoy it quite a bit. Plays fast without being too hard or too easy

I'll have to check, but I am tired of having a super dark TZ table. I have no idea why they even touched it to begin with? I'm going to assume it was an accident, because before, it was nice and bright. Now, it's just dark.

The same goes for T2. The table, or at least the right lights, seem dark and dim.

The posters above were correct, I meant *since* the superpatch; I have TPA also on my android device and regularly when you start an old table, a popup will come up advising about a new and improved version being available for download.

I was under the impression that the superpatch was introduced to allow for the same concept, not just for one-off update of existing tables, but to keep us in sync with Android, iOS, and the other "Royalty" platforms.

I believe that is the case. It would be interesting to hear from them about their plans with patches.

Didn't know about this and just checked.Instructions have also vanished for me.No biggie but hope that is patched up someday.


Just played BK2K!Very fun dynamic table and definitely a worthwhile sequel/upgrade to the original.That music/song is just epic!!!
Of course i also downloaded the other new tables(own all the TPA tables and will always support any new table.I draw the line at the pro mode.Only own the pro mode for Scarred Stiff.In general pro mode just isn't interesting enough to me) but i am going to try and restrain myself and not rush play all of them at once.Next i'll select High Speed.Steve Ritchie never fails.As said before, Whodunnit is the one i'm most looking forward to.I'm going to save it for the grand finale!Thx TPA for finally releasing these on the PS and i hope the next update will come asap.Everyone have great fun with the new tables!


Edit: One quibble about BK2K is that the magna save seems weak.

Just had a look, and the pro packs are available for all four tables, so it was just an error in the blog listing.

Seems like taking advantage of an honest mistake to me. I don't know who is left out of pocket as a result of this.

 

[BBIAJ]

I'd assume that Sony would owe Farsight, if they're responsible for the listing in the first place?

This wouldn't be the first time that mistakes have been made when it comes to pricing and availability of digital content, Microsoft have done the same thing on several occasions on Xbox 360, where premium DLC was for a time listed as free for example.

Mistakes happen, and the lucky early few get the advantage of that.

In terms of graphisms, Junk Yard is really a disapointment.

 

[Tann]

Why?

It seems the reddish hue on PS3 becomes the norm. Don't like it at all. :-(

PS: thanks to rubiconalpha, the last one to capture PS3 video stream for TPA.

 

[DokkenRokken]

Meh, it's not bad enough to bother me.

I'd always expect better graphics on PC, anyway.

 

[Kratos3]

I'd say just a touch warmer, but not that big of a deal to me.

 

[The Night Flier]

Not a problem for me either.Cosmetic.

 

[Johni3w6]

Not a problem for me, just glad I haven't encountered any bugs yet.

 

[DokkenRokken]

Not a problem for me, just glad I haven't encountered and bugs yet.

No kidding!

 

[Tann]

Well, guys, I mean in general...

Since the superpatch, all the tables seems reddish/orange-ish. In particular, the tables that aren't too colourful (Centaur is the worst - not black & white, but grey & orange on PS3-, then Big Shot).

a touch warmer

Come on, compare BK2K PC and PS3. Don't you think that the PS3 version is... yellow?!? (e.g. the rollover in the upper playfield!).

The pink hue is gone.. now welcome to the red hue!
