[QUOTE="Richard B, post: 150868, member: 306"] All the tables before STTNG (of which CFTBL is one) have had their difficulty tuned way down. The ones released since then (some more than others) have been a lot closer to the originals, and in the case of CC, harder. WW, JY, WD, and WH20, among others, play a lot like their originals. The extra balls settings are in place because FS has implemented them in the operator's menus, and they can be removed there too (one of the few reasons to have Pro). Nudging is not a big part of real tables since nudging a real table means moving a 300 pound machine, and most of them (around here at least) have tilt settings that allow for one nudge before you get a warning (or double warning), with some just going right to tilt without warning you. As far as spin and air balls (the latter of which plays heavily into Champion Pub, which is otherwise pretty accurate), FS said they were looking into it, but we've not seen it yet. I would like to see earlier tables better tuned for difficulty (especially the ruined BOP), as they've already updated the physics (cradle separations and rolling taps are now possible, and the overly bouncy physics, including the non-orbit flipper-to-outlane bounce, are a thing of the past.
