[QUOTE="superballs, post: 58393, member: 341"] They're not going prerendered and it's not the solution to all the problems. I don't feel like waiting again for all the tables to come out because it would require writing an entirely different engine. New graphics and rendering engine, new physics engine, new everything. The current engine has come so far and I couldn't name more than a handful of people who would be willing to start all over (including paying for all the tables again) just so we can stare at static images with a few dynamic objects and largely faked lighting. How fast do you think Silverball is going to get all their tables out, redoing all their assets and lighting. Farsight is sticking to their business model of table releases every month, like it or not. On topic. I hope they just have the effect turned off, they must be giving us the videos playing on dev machines and not on fully complete/ported tables. On the mobiles, personally i can't give a damn about ball reflections, I'm usually too busy playing pinball...seriously, I've never ever even noticed ball reflections while playing real pinball, I'm usually too busy paying attention to the actual ball.
