[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 292759, member: 134"] Pro mode is the new Williams physics. If disabled, you are playing standard Zen physics, which includes higher angled flippers and less spin on the ball. Do you ever play real tables? They were designed to have the random player have about 30-45 seconds with each ball. Site operators could change outlane posts to be hungrier, increase the rake of the machine, and do all manner of scoring adjustments. The idea was to find just the right balance of making a person drop that next quarter without making it so easy that they never had to. The purpose of multiball is to confuse you into losing balls quicker, not so you can run up a big score (that’s the carrot they dangle). Read any pinball flyer and all it does is pump up how high your profits will be. [/QUOTE]
