Quoted from 27dnast:

I absolutely love F-14... I came close to selling mine a month or so ago and came to my senses.... No WAY! Not going to happen. It's my go to favorite game.
I have it cranked up.... The kickback is set so that it must be activated (no beginning of the game freebies!). And the playfield is currently at 8.125 degrees (can't make it any steeper!). It's so fast... Unforgiving.... Fun to punish!! I'm thinking about setting the entire rule set to extra hard.
My next move is to wire the missing flashers.... Possibly add black balls

I have mine set the same way.... steep pitch, kickback must be earned, no t-o-m-c-a-t memory, 3 balls. Pulled off the mylar, came out near perfect, waxed, with new balls, freshly rebuilt flippers, serviced/adjusted slings and pop bumper.. Fastest pinball machine ever made. And my favorite game.

Quoted from Pinwizkid:

I am usually a total purist with my games, but if CPR made a mirrored backglass for F-14 like they did with Whirlwind, I would buy one immediately. The F-14 logo has so much potential to look awesome with mirroring.
Anyone else interested?

I'd definitely buy one. I really hope they do this.

Quoted from GPS:

Hi
Switch seems to be working just fine, just a lot less intensity of the pop bumper than the one I saw last eve.
Not sure this is a switch issue

Mine had the same problem. I'd recommend actuating the pop bumper by hand and see if you can feel any friction or resistance. If you can, fix it! You might have to disassemble and clean it, or replace a part...
