[QUOTE="flynnz, post: 39125, member: 1436"] I disagree with this. When going from playing our real pinball machine to the "flat" virtual tables on TPA, I notice it is much harder to "see" items on the table as they all appear to be on top of each other in a mess of convolution. When playing Zen 2, I can see everything much clearer and separately simply because of the nature of 3D. To me this goes beyond just the wow factor and has a practical use. Also saying something like "It's not like it's a tool that helps me be better at pinball", is a pretty weak statement imo. Simply because you can say that about many things such as stereo sound, playing in color, having back glass art, glow effects, reflections etc etc. Anything that can make a virtual pinball table feel more real, to me, should be explored and if possible added. Like I said in the above post, since 3D is not all that complicated or development heavy to implement, there is no reason it shouldn't be added. And since a 3D feature will ALWAYS be optional and is so easy to add in devleopment, there is no reason anyone should be championing against 3D being added to TPA. [/QUOTE]
