Fun game.
I love the spinning pizza ala Whirlwind.
SERIOUS PIZZA !

 

[Extork]

If I had a nickel for every time I've eaten a piece of pizza today, I'd have enough to play a game of pacman. Also, starship troopers

It's a nice game but sucks to play, the button for the third flipper is all the way up on my tablet, if I reach for it either I am too late and then lose the ball because I am also late to save it with the regular flipper, or I'm moving the tablet so much that I tilt the game....any solutions to this??

Pick a table (Starship Troopers) > Table Menu > Options > (Scroll down) > Button Position

The button for the 3rd flipper can be moved up or down the right edge of the screen.
1. select the table
2. hit "table menu". hit "options".
3. scroll down and select "button position"

It was fun.
It was fun.

 

[Reagan Dow]

Dang! I was hoping for inside info from Dedpop too; now I only know about you Reagan

Not much to know ...,,,,now 15 years ago and it was rock stars / porn stars/ and stoppers. Now I, just a boring piece of junk! You are welcome to FB me, I'll accept but essentially no one hear cares about this stuff. And I concur

 

[Dutch Pinball ball]

This game..... Is so close of being awesome. Only the sound makes it non triple a to me. Could use some more adjustments but overall gameplay is fun.

 

[kinggo]

I still don't like it much....

We should all remember that FarSight says the physics in the game are that of the games they physically have in their office.

Way back in Season 3, when WHO?dunnit was released, there were a lot of people who didn't like the physics because of how floaty they were. They were also worried that High Speed would be released and have the same physics. But then it came out and was one of the most flowing and fast-playing tables in the game.

Because of this I don't think FarSight can "fix" the floatiness if it's the same way on the actual tables. But rest assured that Addams Family won't be ridiculously floaty.

I think you mean "Who wants it?" Captain!!

Still no section for ST under Stern Tables? Is someone sleeping on the job?

Maybe we should start a new thread on why ST is not under the Stern Section

i've given up on this table already. i managed 140M or so legally and all i got was some poxy point count, then i somehow managed 250M or so via some stupid bug where it kept bouncing off the rt sling and back into the left lower saucer so i kept getting free points and ended up with this semi-decent score...... but still it's only worth 47 points overall so what's the point.

ok ok i get it, i know that points are not the main goal, fun is the main goal, but in that case i would be happy to just stick with 3 or 4 basic tables forever and be done with it. let's see - AFM, CFTBL, TOTAN. ok i'm done. but we have all these tables so they all have to individually be fun to play and worthwhile putting the effort in because a good score will make a real difference to our overall tally ..... so points *are* important to gaming generally.

but not here. so why should i spend forever trying to double my best ever score on SST for an extra 47 points, when instead i could try to beat my best Dracula, Theatre of Magic, Diner, Star Trek, CV, Ripleys even ... by 20% for a bigger reward? they gotta set the target goal points tally right, it's crazy if they don't make the initial number variable based on subsequent data coming in. crazy.

anyway. rant over.
as you were

 

[IGoFirstIndy]

At this point I'm just ignoring the bugs and shooting ramps and loops. Its actually proving to be a decent strategy.

Klendathu Multiball is pretty epic.
