Quoted from Sinestro:These all work together with the actuated up/down ramp to make a mode that isn't in the Pro.
How do you come to that conclusion?
Pro has Disco Mode, just no Disco Ball.
Quoted from Jvspin:Drops slow the ball down, so I expect the Premium will be slower than the Pro.
Without the lift ramp, does the ball continue around the orbit back to the right flipper?
One way gate, stops ball, left orbit always falls into the pops.
Therefore Premium/ LE is faster.
Stern does even mention this in their press release.
Quoted from Jvspin:Yep, that's too bad. Guess they needed something to help drive premium sales.
Still think pro will be faster (meaning ball will be ricocheting around) in the lower playfield. The return to the right flipper via sword ramp will not be fast like an orbit.
It's a give and a take.
While I'd prefer 2 controled gates and therefore 2 fast orbits I'd like the Sword ramp on the Pro best, not having that extra thingy right next to it, wich feeds the ball in from the side.
What I don't get is why they didn't make a jump ramp, or an extra gate for the shooter lane, so we could just have 2 regular orbits.
But yeah, it's not the end of the world and the rest seems fluid & fun.
Quoted from MikeS:I have a feeling that the Prem/LE will likely divert to the pops the majority of the time as the left orbit is really the best way to get the ball in the pops. It will probably only go to the sword ramp during certain modes. It probably won't be a big game changer as Stern is notorious for underutilizing their extra features.
That may well be. "Luckily" till the first Pros hit local shores, the LE Video will be out so I can see for myself before maybe buying.
Quoted from Jvspin:Hmm...if I look closely at the photo with the plastic truck in the corner, the gate looks controlled, as I see a rod going to the gate from off the playfield. Granted it's a little difficult to make out what's going on from the photos.
If there is a plastic truck you're watching pictures of the Premium/ LE. THAT one is controlled.
(Just watching the pictures now I see what you mean, but still, that can't be.)
It's even written down in the features matrix and the press release. The Premium/LE controlled gate opens way into the shooterlane/sword ramp feed, so it just has to be the right gate.
But (as written above by MikeS ) it might not be a significant game changer if the controlled gate behaves the same most of the time.
Quoted from Jvspin:I meant the flat plastic truck. Maybe it's the other gate that isn't controlled.

Just edited my post.
I see what you mean now.
According to Features Matrix & Press Release, the Premium/LE controlled gate opens way into the shooterlane/sword ramp feed, so it just has to be the right gate... I think.
I the right gate would go both ways,... where would the ball end when hitting the left orbit on the pro?! Since there "seems" to be no jump ramp or additional gate closing up the shooter lane it would end up right there... in the shooter lane.
Follow the left orbit shot with your eyes and look where you end up.
035-deadpool (resized).jpgQuoted from sven:If that's so, don't balls into the right orbit that aren't fast enough to reach the top fall back in the shooterlane? Or balls exiting the right side of the bumpers (if that's possible...I can't really tell by that picture).
Slow Ball landing in the Shooterlane Happens in some games, no sweat. Auto Plunger will feed it back in.
Out of The Pops its not impossible to get there as I see it but usually it wouldnt end up there.
But there may ne an additional wird gate for the shooter lane unser the plastic figurine. Cant see it properly.
