Quoted from Shapeshifter:

Could be first JJP I have to buy!

Likewise. I had Dialed In and got rid of it in 10 days. It was a very flat, repetitive experience to me.

Really rooting for a kickass GNR on this one. Eric is an excellent young designer. Keefer's one the all-time greats for rules.

How can you not be excited for Monday?

#336 3 years ago
Quoted from Billy16:

I'm guessing you were using these videos to illustrate that maybe we should keep looking for the good new bands?

Dirty Honey. This is an Aerosmith Cover, but there’s a lot more out there.

Quoted from greenhornet:

when asked to venture a guess, a customer is dumbfounded when she misses the CE price by over $2500. the trend is up. one can only hope that 'the price is right'.

Cliffhangers is the best Price Is Right game. Plinko is crap.

MAKES it? Really?

Quoted from seenev:

Wow... Slash could show a little excitement.

I was actually more excited for the next video: reduce your waste size the Japanese way.

Why am I seeing SD footage?

Who the hell is Melissa?

Who's playing the game in the promo video?

No way she plays in league.

From the video, I've watched like 5 minutes. Is every mode a multi ball?

Quoted from cooked71:

Seems to be Keith thing? I remember Hobbit was the same, and more recently POTC. Was one of the reasons I sold POTC - just felt like Multiball all day.

I’ll look at the stream tomorrow to decide, but man, that’s MB heavy. Now there are games where “multiball flow” is awesome: LOTR, AFM, White Water, ACDC. Those are some I love.

Some I don’t. TSPP is one. Not sure about the GNR stuff.

I'm a little worried.

#2151 3 years ago
Quoted from chuckwurt:

How common is this at their shows? Sounds like a nightmare. Reminds me of when I went to a concert for George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic, and George literally never came out the whole show. Haha

During the hey day, it was beyond bad. Infamous. Legendary even.

#2163 3 years ago

So I've watched a bit. Is there anyone else that dislikes the center scoop? I wish it was a bash toy. It's tough to miss a center scoop.

Also from what I can tell, mulitball is awarded on the plunge.

#2179 3 years ago

The center scoop bothers me more than the Multiballs.

#2182 3 years ago
Quoted from mbrave77:

guitar ball lock is one of the coolest ways to lock balls ive ever seen

I agree. It's diluted a bit b/c of all the damn Multiballs though. I agree with iceman44 though. This is a kickass drinking game.

Quoted from PoMC:

I took matter into my own hands with our Aerosmith Pro. Love the gameplay and the fun we have when playing it. But the background animations during song modes should've been video of the band. So I added it. Full assets, baby!
https://photos.app.goo.gl/KCWDoet23Y7fiQ1D6

That's kick ass. I haven't spent enough time on Aerosmith. I feel like it's under the radar.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!
#2360 3 years ago

Here's my question to those who've played it.

Does JJP GNR have "that shot": The shot that's really really satisfying to hit for both sound, risk, reward on a pin?

Examples like the scoop on MET during CIU (and a few shots on MET). GOT has the Super Jackpot Battering Ram. Etc, etc.

As bare bones as Maiden is, it's still satisfying to hit the Pharaoh target for huge points. Anything in GNR that does this?

#2391 3 years ago
Quoted from BazilBLast:

At least jjp came up with different design packages .
Stern just said oh we're making 500 Munsters LE , what ? they're popular , OK let's make it 600.

Also I think we need to understand that yeah, this pin is multiball heavy on stock settings, but that's adjustable and there is shit-ton to do.

It's not as this is coded like Munsters.

#2583 3 years ago

I’ve viewed every minute of every stream.

My issues:
Scoop location
Non-stop multiball. NON. STOP.
Nothing to bash/hit/knock down etc at all
Slash spinner is pointless except to annoy?
It might be the worst skill shot in pinball

I still want an LE.

#2585 3 years ago
Quoted from RGR:

So far for me:
Short ramps
Jets that dont fire as good as Sterns
Crapping low scoring...something I just can never like

I don't like the low scoring either.

Here's the "most advanced pinball machine on them market" and it scores like Amigo.

#2591 3 years ago
Quoted from Chitownpinball:

Watched the BP stream. My thought is "It looks like Guitar Hero The Pinball and you're stuck as GNR the whole time."

#2605 3 years ago
Quoted from kermit24:

The game is fun to shoot.

From all streams it's really hard to understand what to do. There's so many multiballs, it all looks like flipping without a purpose.

#2627 3 years ago
Quoted from BallPin:

I mentioned before a bash Marshall Amp or like MM have two Marhsall Amps pop up or just one pop up blocking the scoop during song play.

Like a Stage Door lock you have to bash - like the Sanctum magnet - to start a song.

#2654 3 years ago
Quoted from Phbooms:

i wasnt referring to the actual flat playfield, i was talking about this edge.
[quoted image]

I'm not sure if you're a guitar player, if you are, you would recognize a broken Gibson headstock is more authentic.

#2893 3 years ago
Quoted from Tranquilize:

It's a public forum about pinball. Everyone gets trashed on. It's da way things woyks.
I was defending Lawler last week and stating my displeasure about GnR this week. Next week I'll defend dialed in again.
This should be a designer's paradise. They get a free litmus test from the pinball public. Who cares if there are morons who trash games and designers for no good reason?
As for the multiball forever in GnR, how can we shut up about it? The game is brand new, crazy expensive, and will mostly go to homes. I think wondering and pondering about playing Wack-a-wacka-ball instead of what we're used to is a valid concern that I continually want to hear about. If it hurts the designers' feelings, maybe a public forum isn't the best place for them to hang out.

I can’t say you’re wrong. Opinions drive the site. Look at the opinions of $60 PS4 games. There are millions of posts on them. Pins are $6000-$13,000 toys.

#3148 3 years ago

I haven't played it, but I've been told by friends in leagues that played it that the outlanes are REALLY hungry.
Good shots "reward you" with immediate drains. Could be the reason multiball / add-a-ball dominates play, otherwise it's a quick game.

#3194 3 years ago

Jimmy The Cab Driver describes November Rain. Never forget.

#3383 3 years ago
Quoted from allsportdvd:

How is Rocket Queen on the family friendly list of songs? Are the background "noises" removed from the game if anyone has played that song long enough to get to that point
Or are those kind of "noises" considered family friendly

Those noises technically indicate the STARTING of a family, so all good.

#3642 3 years ago
Quoted from chuckwurt:

Okay just played this bad boy for 5 straight hours pretty much.
Great game and lots of fun. I only cared about my score when it was about to explode from built up song jackpots. Until then I just concentrated on making shots. Pretty easy to follow once you’ve played for a while. Helps to have friends with you so you can all help read the screens and learn together.
Favorite song was live and let die. So so good.
Favorite shot is inner spinner that feeds the pops and also the side loop. Has a shadow loop feel when you nail it.
Upper playfield is just meh. Feels almost identical to Alice Cooper. A satisfying backhand and an okay forehand and a spot target between the two. It’s very important though with the locks and the base guitar shot.
If I get into the settings later I’m definitely upping the flipper strength 10-15% for sure. Flippers made all the shots, but would play way better with them stronger imo.
Can’t wait to get more time and it and see how the code develops. Stuff like one of the album modes (the desert monster one) seemed completely unfinished.
Definitely go check this out if you can!

Good stream. Two things.

1) Seems like people were just ignoring the upper play field on purpose. True?
2) That "Keyboard Sound" needs to be stopped.

#3785 3 years ago
Quoted from kermit24:

I bet it is totally brutal.

I'm interested to see if multiballs were added for this reason.

#4010 3 years ago
Quoted from Eskaybee:

Maybe the title of this thread should be changed to:
Guns N' Roses... It's 'almost' Here!

JJP's Next Pin is JJP's Current Pin

Quoted from Roostking:

Yea, they learned alright. Present full playfield with all sorts of toys. Collect pre-order $$$. Strip playfield of toys, ship! (No pun intended)

At least with The Hobbit they said, here...No toys! right off the bat.

#4863 3 years ago

That TOTALLY sucks. I'm sure JJP will do their best to find a solution soon.

If this is offensive then don’t buy any pins from the 90s

Yep. Basically every mode on Road Show says "Hold my beer"
