Impossible and half shell are Dwight specials. Not sure it would make it here

Coop/team modes would also be great. When those first started coming out I was hopeful most games might get that feature back ported. Sadly not the case.

I wish 3v1 were on every machine. I have three kids who would love to beat me down in Deadpool

Those are also a Dwight special feature. It was cool when I had TMNT, and now that I have a Mando it's fun when playing with others especially of different skill levels.

You can't NOT Katana a Katana...right?

Bonus, this game actually comes with real world zombie defense built right in… wonder if anyone has taken theirs out and sharpened the edge?

I have a Hooked on Pinball Disco ball mod for the pro for sale. I ordered this and a Disco ball from yoyokopter at the same time a few months back. The yoyokopter one just arrived so I no longer have a need for this one. I used it for about a month, never removed the adhesive cover. It’s basically new. It’s on all the time, but still a great mod for the pro. Everyone who came over loved it. Retail is $120 plus shipping. I’d part with this for $95 shipped! Shoot me a message if interested!

Yeah these features have certainly encourage others that don't usually play to play in my house. Its taken my kids a while to get into it and my wife, but I'm getting there. The 3v1 is great along with the rest. I like impossible play for me when playing others, kinda levels out all the players skills. I mean I'm not awesome either, but definitely having everyone scores around the same makes it more enjoyable for all.

I’m assuming downloading the premium code and the files end up being LE on the unzip is normal and ok to install on a prem?

They need to fix their naming scheme. Its the same package for both

I picked up the washers idea from a post somewhere in the hundreds of pages in this thread.

For the springs, I just used 2 mini pliers & bent up 2 more coils to act as the hoop anchor on the end. I forget if I then trimmed the original 2 end loops or just bent them out of the way.

The springs trick was in the same post as the washers trick. That post recommended shortening the spring to about 3/4 of its original length. There was also a recommendation of a teen drop of super lube in the channel in which the washers slide.

Nice

I just have to say that this game has the best callouts ever. Having Deadpool at home makes this game so much better, the music and callouts are the best.

I just realized from the factory my DP right orbit touches the post at the end of the guide and has been 'normal' for me. I assume this is NOT the case. Can y'all confirm it's not supposed to touch the post at the end of the guide and I assume come down to the right flipper from the left -> right orbit?

Got a picture?

When the ball exits the right orbit it should hit the post at the end of that guide and bounce over to the left flipper. If you let it dead bounce off the left flipper it should be a safe trap on the right.

Dunno about that at all. I have mine tuned so it slides clean down onto the right flipper from the end of the rail. Post does not come into play at all. It used to take a bump to go to left, or it would center drain. Adjusted the rail so it's repeatable from right flipper to right flipper.

I wouldn't want to go through the deadbounce rigmarole.

I thought I read a post a long time ago that it is the design intention to hit that post and go to the left flipper.

Why?

Like loops and all.

I wouldn't want mine to hit the post on either exit.

Just got my machine up the front in other news after rebuilding the flippers (5k+ plays since new).

I am stoked with the flipper droop that i haven't had since new and the new flipper power.

played with a mate today and he got a .9 game, i've had a couple of .6's. That's good scores round here and i'm loving how easy the orbits and low shots are, but re learning the top shots. Scoop and top spinner is not a gimmee anymore.

Snikt and katana just happen over and over.

I just watched some deadflip DP and doesn't look like his hits the post. I ask because my mandalorian suffered from protruding post due to a saggy orbit. I'm feeling this wasn't intended on DP. Need more verification. Playable either way, but now I'm curious.

On my pro it was pretty obvious it hit the post and went to the left flipper. On my premium (recent build) it hits it but isn’t consistently going to the left flipper. I am still working on being 100% level, so it may be off a touch.

The left orbit to the ramp is working about 70% of the time as well but if I smoke a shot it hits something and slowly hits the post and drops to the right flipper.

Yeah mine comes out of the orbit and usually hits the post goes left flipper dead bounce then softly to the right.

Has anyone had a blip where when they select a battle the sound cuts for 1 second and you think it’s going to crash but then sound comes back and everything is fine?

how often does this happen? I have had some stuff happen when the sound kinda acts funny but that was when I set up a bunch of stuff and activated it all at once. I think that was just a hiccup

Looking back through the thread it seems like some bounce off that post and some do not. I am not sure if this was covered in the Gomez/Klyce interview with joelbob as to the intended behaviour here but I was just reviewing the reveal stream and at about the 44:20 mark you can see a ball go up the Right orbit but stalls out and as it comes back down it hits the bumper and goes to the left flipper. I would say a ball exiting the pops to the right orbit should have about the same momentum and trajectory as this example.

Take that for what you will. But as noted from comments in this thread it seems like a millage may vary kinda thing. There are likely other examples in this stream but that is the first one I saw while scanning through.

Not often, only had it happen twice. First time I put it down to a random event but then second time I start to wonder

Started it up today, and no balls were coming out of the trough. This solder joint just popped loose. I checked a few other joints, a few other were about to do the same. Easy fix in a few minutes with a soldering iron, but really annoying on a machine with just over 200 plays. Something to look out for.

Right orbit post post:
My NIB premium May 2022 build flowed right orbit shots to the right flipper.

I put on a thicker post rubber and now it bounces leftish. I don't like the bounce. That doesn't seem like a proper orbit shot, as it can't be repeated rapidly.

I'm going to put a slim post rubber back on.

Thanks,
Jason

That right orbit exit is not really an exit at all right? On the pro left orbit goes to the pops, on premium left orbit goes to pops or lift ramp straight to the right flipper?

Exactly. It’s not a traditional orbit shot for that reason.

There’s times it returns from there still, either rattled shot, randomness, or bricked. Mine bounces off the post and goes to left flipper FWIW.

My May 2022 Premium bounces off the post to the left flipper. The Prem Bowen is playing in the PAPA tutorial vid also bounces off the post to the left flipper. 9m 30sec in.

Same here (Oct 2019 build). And I like it that way. Gives me an immediate chance to hit a SNIKT shot!

Looking at the art on the playfield the post on the right clearly sticks out more than the orbit on the left.

For people that don’t have exit hitting the post, does the post sit inward more, or is the rail pushed far out?

It’s supposed to feed the left flipper i believe.

So coming out of that right orbit it should bounce it over to your left flipper/sling.

Update: Part number for this post is #530-5332-03 in case anyone else needs one

Anyone have a part number for the metal bumper post at the front corners of the lil’ Deadpool drop targets? I snapped the threads off the top of mine by over tightening and I can’t find it listed in the manual. Marco pinball has a lot of options and was hoping to narrow it down.

Thanks

I know which way i prefer it.

Pro at the Stern factory bounces off the post to the left flipper. Keith Elwin and Zach Sharpe playing split flipper tandem. 1:08:05 in.

Premium at the Stern factory bounces to the left flipper. 15m 25s in.

Mine is 90% flipper occasionally hits the sling which can often be an instant right outlane drain if I don’t nudge it right. One of the reasons I went Prem/LE was to give the orbits more flow and to get that right flipper left orbit loop shot, such a fun shot!

Oh goodie. Something else to look into with my April build lol. Good find. May even fire up the hot metal painting stick and paint some metal on there for posterity.

Also wanted to comment here about the Drop Targets.

I am to assume the lack of dropping of the targets happens to everyone. This is not uncommon and superfriggin'annoying. I initially tried the washers as I wasn't feeling like taking out the module to widen the mounting holes. The problem with this is that it lowers the targets' seat in the PF and your slow ball likes to park it on the cutout. I then added a similar spring from my Harbor Freight kit but shorter for more tension after taking out the washers and BAM....drops. Every. Single. Time. Just needed more oomph on the pull to overcome the speed/force of the ball. This can also be tricky as you'll need a thin pair of needle nose to shimmy up in there on the two right drop targets.

https://www.harborfreight.com/200-piece-assorted-spring-set-67562.html

I don't know if you missed my post on this topic but this small fix really fixed all my issues on the stock springs. I really hope a MOD Sticky's it to avoid the headache I had on a NIB machine. Also because of the angle of the targets and the slope even on slow shots the ball never parks here. It simply rolls to the right and back out of the hole, it's it's the right target it will go to the little deadpool sensor where it detects a captured ball and the targets will spring back up and the machine will spit out another ball. I don't know if you noticed but Gomez put a sensor in this corner specifically because he designed the machine to hold the balls in this corner.

It already is. Its been marked as a Key Post and is in the list.

Thanks for the magnet and apron decal John_I at space coast pinball!

Wow, just right now I learned that this forum only shows you 10 Key posts until you click on the link to show you more. I clicked on it and saw all 42 key posts.. I do see my post now.. Thanks and apologize for simply not understanding how this all works. This site is pretty awesome.

Someone mentioned swapping out the blue pads. It looks like Ninjacamp is making some black pads.

The OG co-op mode was in TNA. Just wanted to point that out

Just got a brand new April build Deadpool Pro. This thing is gorgeous. I'm going to install a full Playfield protector before any plays. I know I'm going to play the hell out of it. What are the other must have mods and adjustments?

I have art blades and the topper ready to install. Also Shaker motor subwoofer and external Volume control. I also want to get it powder coated red.

Were did you get that orange mat to cover the glass? Can I buy the Premium action figures for my Pro?

If there are spots within the protector that still allows the metal edges of some of the ramps and guides to touch the playfield I would recommend washers. Looking at a protector from playfield-protectors it looks like you have good coverage for the Katana ramp guide however you might want washers under the following depending on how they sit:

* Left ramp. There are 2 screws under the ramp entrance as well as a post on the right side that can use protection. Check that the edges of the ramp do not rub the clear, if so possibly thin strips of mylar
* Ball guide behind Wolverine spinner. This takes a lot of shots and the edge of the guide can dig in to the clear.

The only other things I can think of is possibly a Cliffy metal shooter lane protector. Also, turn your ball eject down from factory to help reduce wear. Cliffy also makes a protector for behind the drop target bank that could be useful.

Welcome to the club, and that is a heck of a 3 pin lineup you have there.
