[QUOTE="xZOMBIEx, post: 282452, member: 6699"] We all know about the numerous bugs and little issues he and there and while they are slowly being fixed here and there, there are still other things that could be improved on and or tweaked to improve the game overall and I was hoping if some of our requests, feedback, ideas, etc... could be implemented along with fixes... I don't really remember something being updated, added, or changed that WASN'T a bug fix that made the game better or improved on it... Yes I know big fixes does kind of "improve" the game, but let's be real, those are things that should have already been working... For example I don't really consider the ball being slow and floaty like a bug issue, that seems more like that was how it was made to be, but after playing real tables and the new Williams tables on Zen's Pinball FX3, it's pretty obvious the ball weight or speed is extremely slow... If you play Attack From Mars on FX3 and then play it on PBA, it's like 8a in slow motion... I was able to get Ruler of The Universe on PBA on my first attempt at playing it in who knows how long and after I had played it on FX3 as I was taking a look at the difference between each version, but on the FX3 version, I still haven't been able to beat all the stages to even try and get the Wizard Mode... I think the highest I've gotten so far was one stage before conquering the Mars level where you "take the fight to them"... And in real life it's almost the same to where I've only been able to beat like 3-4 stages... So the ball speed and or weight of it could REALLY use an upgrade and tweak to it...
