If you don't like the ball speed in Zen mode, wait till you try it in Arcade!As others have mentioned, this is how a real ToM feels, not how TPA has it. Now it's fine for you to prefer that, but know that FarSight got it wrong while Zen has it oh so right. Was this the first Williams pack you've bought from Zen? Because while you might be a bit off put now, give it a bit more time. In Zen mode (what they call single player as opposed to 'classic single player' which is the new WMS physics) the ball has fewer random variations of bounce, the rubber are a bit more subdued, and the flipper angles are the same as in TPA. Watch the ball speed closely when it dribbles out midfield and comes back to the flippers; you'll see it start slow and then accelerate as one would expect. Go back to TPA and you'll see the ball always maintains the same speed until it makes contact with another object.Once you get used to some of the new (and correct) angles the ball trajectory has, you'll start enjoying longer games again. You've got muscle memory from TPA and you need to retrain your brain. You may not have bought the pack for the other 2 tables, but maybe dive into those since your perception might not be so tainted, and then come back to ToM. Or go ahead and give the classic single player a whirl and experience what a real table would act like, and then go back to Zen mode. It'll seem much more friendly afterwards, believe me.
