[QUOTE="HotHamBoy, post: 248993, member: 4638"] I've heard Star Trek is just as bad, too. This has been out for months and they haven't made any improvements to existing tables. To my knowledge they haven't even acknowledged that there are performance problems or that fixes are coming. EDIT I just fired it up and gave AC/DC and SST a try again. SST is actually fairly smooth, most of the time. I do get occasional slowdown and framedrops but nothing too serious. Sometimes it's worse than others, I don't know why, because I've had worse slowdown in previous sessions. That said, multiball is still a mess and everything starts to move like it's underwater. AC/DC, on the other hand, is just constant slowdown and never runs as smooth, even for a few seconds. Something I noticed this time is that AC/DC does not feature a ball shadow while SST and MSF do. Even with shadows removed, AC/DC runs like crap. I don't know why FS chose this as the test platform but it's seriously insulting that they charge $10 for the new tables, which run terribly, and are releasing new ones instead of fixing what's already there. And who knows if GearVR is really even a viable platform for the demands of the game or if FS will get it to an accepatable state. Like I said, when SST feels like running well it's a cool (albiet it very grainy/fuzzy) experience. But i would caution anyone against paying for these tables. [/QUOTE]
