[QUOTE="soundwave106, post: 117709, member: 3746"] TBH I don't find them *that* much easier. Some I actually find harder... TOM's trunk shot actually seems less forgiving in Pinball Arcade then I remember in real life, for instance. TZ... in real life, it depended on the machine. Some machines in real life I remember were set up relatively easy. With good flippers and a slower playfield, it honestly was not too difficult for an experience pinball player to hit LITZ on those setups. Same with ST:TNG. Sure, you *could* set up those machines to be super hard, and I've encountered those types as well. But a lot of operators *didn't* -- after all, super drain monsters don't get repeat quarters from casual players as much, either. From what I see The Pinball Arcade leans towards easier setups. But considering a lot of real life tables were not set up that way, it's strange to hear the complaints about things being "too easy". A video game marketed to the general public should be set up as tournament grade by default? Attack From Mars is the only game I've played extensively in real life that I thought was oddly easier in The Pinball Arcade... but that might be me, since I haven't played that game in a while.
