Have they done a ramp configuration before that goes in and out of the back wall like that?

#1159 6 years ago

Speaking of which, does anyone know if the hands move up and down and if the fingers move separately?

#1167 6 years ago
Quoted from Rarehero:

LOL are you kidding!?!?
They're just decoration. They don't do shit.

Just asking as some people here are analyzing gameplay already, and the hands could be an influence on gameplay. Probably way too early for any of this gameplay analysis is my point.

#1169 6 years ago
Quoted from Wolfmarsh:

This is a clear cost cutting move by Stern to not include an actual genetically engineered raccoon in every game.

A possum has been done before:

Quoted from Rarehero:

Yeah, just givin' ya crap. But the Groot hands are just decoration...kinda like Sega Godzilla:

I hear you but the Groot hands are placed to block the ramp shots it seems. Anyway, in due time everyone will know on reveal of gameplay video...If they do not move this would be moddable..

#1176 6 years ago
Quoted from Rarehero:

Dude. We know. They're pieces of plastic hovering over the playfield.
Why would anyone mod them to block shots? That sounds like the shittiest mod ever.

I guess you know this from underside playfield pictures? No motors maybe? That'd be more informative than "Dude. We know".

Quoted from Pimp77:

We know this by looking at the pics and checking the matrix they released. They would be touting the shit out of moving hands!!! They’re static!

This is on the matrix for Prem and LE only. "All new EZ Slide cabinet brackets for smooth and easy playfield access". I wonder what that is?

#1180 6 years ago
Quoted from BillySastard:

You can tell from the pics that each arm is one solid piece and the back part of each arm is underneath a ramp. Pretty hard for them to go down with a ramp blocking it.

I think I'll wait for the gameplay video. You guys are probably right about the arms being static but it's too early to analyze whether I want to buy it or not. It would be odd to option a static toy on Prem/LEs. Not that it hasn't been done before, but at least the Millenium Falcon lit up. Thanks!

Quoted from Rarehero:

I know because I know. LOL....me, Pimp, others here...we've been doing this long enough. We KNOW Stern isn't putting motors in the game for moving arms or some kind of complex finger puppetry system...it's just not happening....and if it was, they'd be telling us & showing us. Borg puts big giant molded plastic things on games...that's how he rolls. Kiss - giant plastic Gene head that doesn't move. X-Men - Giant Wolverine and Magneto that don't move. TWD - giant Well Walker on a hinge that flops a bit from impact, but no motors to make him move around and be scary or nothin'.
Arms are pieces of plastic. Don't do anything. Trust us.

Well we all have seen Stern's past games and the GOTG feature matrix and know Borg's MO not sure where you are coming from. I was just asking in case someone here actually has seen it, not anything more or in this case less than that. Anyway I'll wait for the gameplay video or if anyone has insider insight here on the game.

#1194 6 years ago
Quoted from Pimp77:

Look at Star Wars LE /Premium: the matrix says the same thing.

Missed that. Thanks...

Quoted from cosmokramer:

Didnt you hear?
All the cool kids are using the term "deck" now...

Technically, JJPOTC has a deck. A side to side moving ship deck.

#1539 6 years ago

Sometimes we'll use a pinball machine for a cards table. So we play a deck on them.

#1544 6 years ago

Hopefully GOTG is on deck for my next gameroom purchase.

#1558 6 years ago
Quoted from Vino:

So the groot hands move with the songs?

Oh boy....a dead horse has risen.

#1710 6 years ago
Quoted from twenty84:

That is only the the half of it. She prefers the Chris Pratt rendering on the pro trans light (he is small and wearing a mask on the LE version) so we are buying a pro trans light to put in it. I'm sure Stern loves us.

LE art blade has a Pratt image.

#1779 6 years ago
Quoted from Whitenoise3000:

Meanwhile inside Stern headquarters:
Brainstorming session:
Jody “We’ve just had our doors blown off by the features JJPOTC and AFMRLE. How do we respond?”
Stern “Hey, I have an idea: Unfinished code, cheap construction, no shaker motor, no real backglass, old WWE trim (no laser cut on LE obviously), and make the power cord an extra!"
Group: "Brilliiant. But can we raise prices too?"
Stern: "Duh! You saw those idiots buy Batman 66 right!?"

I thought we had a customer advocate now in Zach Sharpe...I believe that we do.

Quoted from frankmac:

Are there call outs?

He said on the stream that they are playing a special code install, no callouts. The game will have them though sounds like multiple actors, I think, but not sure on that.

Delivered Pros do not have the callouts either, need to download the updated software when available.
