On Taxi you can only make it up to the 75 on a full pull and release and on droid its 100 (Also if ya do manage to get it fixed could you up the power so it goes past 100 on a full pull?) And Scared Stiff on PS3 gets you the skill shot every time on a full pull which on Droid a full pull will be too much power. Gofers is another problem table on PS3 off the top of my head but at least you can do a quick snap make it up the blue ramp.I'm assuming it was a "glitch" based on the post I made in the second thread. Quoted here for ease."Right now in taxi after playing around with it a bit the plunger is back to pre-patch strength. I can pull it back all the way, wait a moment and release and nail the 100 every time again (Not saying that is a good thing, I think it needs more power on Taxi). If I leave the table and go back it's weaker for a bit. Not sure what it is that triggers it but it will go back to the more poppy plunger.So the new plunger strength is a glitch or the old strength coming back is a glitch... there is a glitch somewhere in there!Made a quick video. After about 5 minutes of playing it went back to the pre-patch strength. Started the video launched a few balls both were powerful enough to at least make it to 100. Went out of Taxi and back in and it was back to 75 strength on the same pull."With video included. Very old but the issue is the same.[MEDIA=youtube]C2KAbzaMP64[/MEDIA]</blockquote>
