[QUOTE="superballs, post: 136192, member: 341"] You need to remember that they (Louizou the longest but finally got some help) worked on Unity3D for over a year and a half. They didn't need to secure any licensing, they didn't have to pander to the many wants and demands of fans, they didn't need to develop the physics or graphics engine and the assets are imported from Future Pinball. Not trying to marginalize the work they did, but comparing it to FS's workload (and they aren't a very large studio at that) really isn't very fair at all. FS just got their cabinet in and they now have to develop cab modes just for that. Mike has expressed dismay in the development of things like camera views and whatnot and while they do have a lot of it complete by the looks of it, they are trying to get a lot of those details right (personally I only know first-hand of Mike's dissatisfaction with views, the rest is mostly speculation). They are also working on the DX11 lighting, developing the next table and I think they are still pursuing certain hard to get licenses. They are excited about releasing cab options, that it's a lot of work for a very small percentage of their customer base (especially for things like ledwiz and real dmd support etc) as anything more than a two monitor setup connected to a pc is going to be very very niche.
