[QUOTE="superballs, post: 5212, member: 341"] I'm imagining that Farsight didn't just set their price point on a whim. Nor did they set about releasing TPA on a whim. We can't use forum membership or Facebook likes to accurately guage their sales figures as I'm sure there are a lot of people that don't bother coming here or posting on the facebook page. Not to mention that there are sales for 6 platforms to consider and if I'm correct they only need to aquire a license once. I'm sure we won't start off getting huge licenses. And some of these licenses i couldn't give a rat's behind about like GnR and stuff like that. There are plenty of awesome tables that will probably have pretty inexpensive licensing to them that we will all enjoy. What Farsight needs to do is get a large core audience like us who are in it for the pinball, not the licenses. Those of us who will buy any table and possibly multiple times. From me, they are pretty well guaranteed 2 sales of any table they release, even if I'm not that interested in a table, it could be more that i've simply not given it a chance. Case in point, I would have passed over BoP if I were being selective and I would have been a tard for doing so. I have some trust that Farsight have performed the feasability testing and market research to know that this is a viable venture and as the product improves the user base will increase. As the little niggling details get polished up, fans of VP and FP and the like will start to take notice. I've seen what is coming with Mediaval Madness and if the 360 demo and the iOS version have anything to say, the bounciness of the ball has been toned down to a better level and i think they've adjusted the flipper mechanics a bit to make multiball passing, while not perfect yet, more possible as I've pulled it off a few times.
