[QUOTE="Shaneus, post: 160015, member: 204"] Mike, I apologise for the claims of sabotage... not sure where they came from. But there's a clear difference between platforms with how the ball behaves, perhaps it's a sampling rate thing or something. From what I can tell, there seem to be three different levels (in order of complexity, IMO): iOS/Android, PS3/360/PC, PS4. I'd have to say that'd probably be it... ball behaviour isn't necessarily different when viewed as basic calculations (ball at X speed it when it reaches Y part on the flipper will hit Z point on the machine when the flipper is activated, for example), but on a micro level it feels like there's more going on with it on PS4 than any other platform. Smaller movements that wouldn't register as anything on the ball if it had a lower sampling rate (say, 60Hz vs 120Hz). That's how I'd describe it, anyway. If it makes sense. [/QUOTE]
