[QUOTE="Zaphod77, post: 277441, member: 2101"] Well, I played Fish tales. Plus. i've gotten way more fastcasts. :) Minus. the flipper strength variation is way too great for a table this clean. This appears to have the standard Zen Tri-Strength flippers on it. I've had at least three wildly different trajectories from the same spot on the flipper. i've had shotss less than 1/3rd of the way down the flipper go up the correct boat ramp, go around the orbit, and hit the captive ball, as well as hit all the posts between. Here's how the variable flipper strength bit is supposed to work. On a freshly waxed table, you are sure you aimed right and you hit the post dead center. On a broken in table, you aim for one shot and hit the one immediately next to it. (e.g. you aim for burn rubber on getaway and hit the orbit right next to it, or vice versa.) when the table is really dirty, you get more than a shot's width variation. the ball screams on fish tables as if it were freshly waxed, yet the flipper trajectories vary like it was so dirty you can see the dirt. Not only that, the lightning flippers aim more consistently then non lightning ones i my experience. On the real machine, with lightning flippers, more often than not i can hit all five boat shots for the monster fish in a row. That said, choking on the spinner is not uncommon. ;) Without the lightning flippers it's much harder. These lightning flippers sure don't play like the real ones did when i played it. Keyboard nudge is at TPA strength, but gives you an INSTANT non regenerating tilt warning! i CANNOT analog stick nudge to save my life. A strong keyboard nudge should come perilously close to a danger, and if you do a second one within 30 seconds or so you should get one, but you shouldn't get a warning for your first press of the nudge button. Zen warnings regenerate. real pinball ones do not. Please weaken the keyboard nudge strength enough to not give an instant warning. [/QUOTE]
