Not going to lie, I am really interested in seeing GTF. My wife really likes playing LOV and has mentioned more than once that we should get one. That is a pretty rare feat for her.

Its got a freaking cow sculpt...damnit I am in! (Someday)

*plus mileage.

I want to see you go rent that truck from HD, drive to where a game is, load game, drive to destination, unload game, then drive back to HD in 75 minutes or less...GO!

Maybe it is a magnet to hold the metal flap in place!

This is easily going to be AP's best selling game...now we see how they are able to handle the big orders. They supposedly have the ability for multiple lines to be set up...will they fully leverage them?

Almost got to see the game footage in there?

So is this the game Antoinette decided against being a part of?

My man is bringing the FIRE today!

Showed the video to my wife last night, and she thought the cheese was flipping fantastic and declared she wanted one. Maybe down the road I will consider the bare bones version...we will see.

I am not sure the game is ready for gameplay...that is why the video is so chopped up. That center popup ballsave thing looked like a coarsely printed 3D printed PLA piece with an ill fitting sticker ton top...like a placeholder. Several locations were to have this game on the floor yesterday and they were all cancelled.

Remains to be seen though....they were to have them in various locations yesterday and canceled them all.

He is still here...he was being his usual contrarian self downvoting posts the other day.

Considering he thinks GTF is a "flow machine", we can pretty much write off any other opinions at this point. GTF looks like a lot of fun, and I am excited to play it. But a flow machine, it is not. GTF has more stop and go than a city bus route from what I have seen. And that is okay, too.

Jack just said he is streaming the game very very very very very soon, just not tonight. Might have missed a "very".

Monkeygate seems like a decade ago now.

Definitely an AI chatbot....has to be.

Jack Danger was saying on his stream last night that he will stream this after MGC.

Ferret is on the stream explaining the rules!

This is a game you are going to have to adjust to playing, as you can see on the stream. Once they dialed in their reflexes, the shots are being made. You will have to play this like BKSOR and not drill the tank straight on. I also like the animation work...blows away AP's previous efforts.

I was one of the Youtube people...I had that going on my TV since the YT interface is easier to use on the TV. Then I had twitch app going on my phone for the chat functionality. I did not think the frame rate was an issue on either device, as one user was pointing out.

The one thing about streams is it is very hard to show the physical depth of the playfield features from a straight above camera. The camera was perfectly over the top of the game, so the center ball save was not visibly operating to the people at home...but it was definitely operating. You could see a ball get trapped between the ball save popup and the flipper every once in a while during multiball.

This game is going to feel much different in person when you actually get to play it versus what you saw on the stream. Whatever your opinion is on the game now, I think you really need to play one before cementing your opinion either way. I thought BKSOR pro was a barren pile of money grab for both stern and operators (quick ball times) when I first saw it virtually, and now it is one of my favorite games to play in the wild when I come across one.

If Fix is claiming 2000 games sold when it is really 400, then his claim of 20-30 games built a week is more like 4 to 5 games a week. How long did 300 LOV's take? A year-plus?

I went from seriously considering buying this game to just maybe throwing a couple bucks in it if I see one on location. I wanted to stick up for AP's launch originally and just chock it up to them doing things differently. But it is really starting to look like this company is run by a disorganized mess of unharnessed egos and no clear vision or business sense in any way. I feel bad for Bowden here again, because I really like the guy. But the incredibly unprofessional hot mic, a publicly unhunged artist, an MIA designer, allowing Ryan to speak with no filter repeatedly, a rumored nasty kerfuffle with one of the proposed personalities on the LCD, a low quality 3d printer farm (I see better sculpts on some homebrews) and error riddled marketing materials make me really question if AP is going to be a viable pinball operation for much longer.

How do you allow your first official stream to happen after random location streamers? How do you show up absolutely unprepared for your major stream debut with the best streamer in the business? Where is Nordman? Why would he not want to share his vision while having a large worldwide audience? I hate to say it, but that stream last night made the folks at AP look like a bunch amateurs at best. Who is in charge over there? Anyone?

I love campy. I love cheese. But those two things alone do not cloud my vison enough to ignore what a mess of a launch this game has been and how poorly it reflects on AP as a manufacturer going forward.

While not a highly desired game, Mousin' Around is more similar in target bank placement to GTF than AFM. I didn't feel that game was necessarily too brutal...you just need to beware and not smack the targets straight on.

The center targets on the tank were visibly bent on the CT show games by Saturday morning. I was going to play one and it was stuck on a ball 3 multiball just draining and recycling the ball repeatedly. There was someone in front of me trying to let it finish the game someone walked away from at ball 2.

After seeing the game in person, the closeness of the tank targets is really overblown IMO. Once they get the reliability dialed in and implement the tank target fix, this game will be just fine.

Annnnd thats enough of that guy. I don't get some of the folks on here that seem to be chronically bitching about anything and everything all day on this site. Get another hobby or something?

Was AP not aware that Nitro is persona non grata at the show? Seems odd to send them games to have at the show when they are not allowed to be at the show.

Does anybody believe anything out of Fix's mouth at this point? He seems like he is the president of a bullshitters club and gets high sniffing his own farts all day long.
