At some point you would need to bite the bullet and pay for the base system. But think about those of us that already have a P3 and have enjoyed prior games on it. We get to pick up Heist! and any other new modules for $2500. There's no better deal in pinball right now.

Granted I got in super early, which included a lot of incentives, but I'll have the base system and FOUR playfield modules (not counting the software-only games) for $11K. That's insane.

If $10k is too much I got my used one for sale for cheap. Also have to say the service from P3 is top notch. They are very fast to respond to tickets, same day, etc. Great company support.

Best p3 game so far.
This is the make or brake game for p3.
I love the upperplayfield.
And specially that crane thats made with a ton of parts, no money saved.

From an engineering standpoint you would have to figure out how to protect the entrance. It’s done now with rubber posts. The challenge probably isn’t insurmountable but also not insignificant.

Will they get to the point there you will need to upgrade the CPU in the older units to play some new games?

Man I wished you were local to me. I’d do my POTC SE for your P3 plus cash.

Fantastic question.

It is entirely possible that game developers can push the limits of the system, however we factored in some fairly massive overhead when building out the base system. Most of the games on the platform don't even move the needle in terms of load. Everything also uses common off-the-shelf parts. We also never *remove* support for anything as we upgrade the software to try to make things painless for customers that might be on different hardware versions.

Looks like a lot of fun - excited to play it..

“Stuff” in the lower 2/3rd doesn’t just mean ramps. Inserts, custom plastics, dancing martians, non-video art... you know, all the things that make it look & feel like a pinball machine.

Not trying to take anything away from people who love these. It’s interesting. I’m looking forward to Nick’s stream and want to play one. Always willing to have my mind changed.

None of us know how it shoots but it’s packed. The first time I played a P3 I was surprised how much I liked it because people constantly hate on it. I didn’t like Lexy enough to buy one but this has better theme and integration.

It’s strange but I’m more interested in this than anything from American Pinball and they used to make games filled with non video assets.

Everything on the P3 screen can interact with the ball, so there's plenty of "stuff" all over, including side targets on the lower 2/3 of the screen.

^^^ THIS. Plus, how much mechanical interaction is on the lower 2/3 of AFM and pins similar to AFM? Last time I checked, AFM has two flippers, two slings, and two jiggling martians activated during exactly one mode... on a static artwork playfield.

Maybe p3 could do some custom plastics for around the sides that can be swapped in? I would think the screen gives enough if not more “custom art”

Please post back with a link when you're starting the stream!

First P3 game I would really like to play!

Actually 4 and 2 modes.

p3 actually has less open area than AFM does. AFM hardly has anything on it at all.

He's saying only 2 of those are on the bottom 2/3 of the playfield.

Quick stream, but looked great. Once plane ticket refunds come in, this game is mine.

Ok, crisis averted, I should be back online shortly. I'll see if the same link works. I adjusted my lighting q bit based on feedback. I don't have a ton of room or any expertise in streaming or playing, but I do have cameras... I guess that counts, right?

Change the camera facing the player to face the upper playfield to see the toys please. Want to see all the crane action.

Thanks for the stream.

I think it's a great looking game, with the city as a 'world under the glass', some nice loops and ramps and the crane. I hop to find one to play someday here in the Netherlands (or Belgium of Germany or so). If I really like it, I might buy one. I've never bought a NIB game before, and I can't spend that much money without playing it first, but I do like the idea of having a good game (that what it looks like to me) and have possibility to change modules to have other games as well.

Just finished running the carpet cleaner. Let's do this!

Take 2:

gstellenberg can give you information about distributors in your area.

Sorry I didn't see this before I gave it another shot. I am unfortunately extremely limited in my streaming setup. The player cam is the laptop that is running the streaming software... and if I move it, everything will come unplugged (I'm not usually a streamer).

no worries, thank you for doing this.

Looks like some nice flow and the shots don't seem too hard. I mean, if Nick can make them, right? (I kid, I kid)

Not wrong!

That's what ultimately changed my mind. Playing Lexi at Bat City Open and really getting to chew down on the rules and shots. It took a little adjusting to get the 'feel' of the flippers and slingshots, but once I could just focus on rules and shots....man, I want that game. I just don't have the money.

That crane looks amazing. Seeing it jet out. Well done.

Thanks for streaming Nick. Game looks great.

Just saw this happen in Nick's stream above, very cool!

I'm about half way into watching this stream and, man, this game is looking amazing. Very clear directions on the screen about what to shoot at, call-outs and music are awesome (love the air-raid siren), lots of interesting modes (under-flipper shot is a great idea), multiball starts are exciting and a lot of personality in the characters. There's even a car chase. Looks like a heap of work went into this. Congrats Multimorphic!

Nick, has to be the luckiest guy in lock-down right about now. Would love to have one of these to play.

I understand you want to get info out, but don't want to confuse new potential customers. P3 Multimorphic has nothing to do with American Pinball. They are based in Texas and per Gerry's email, they have machines and playfields already built. Obviously, supply chains will likely slow or dry up soon, but he said they are going to keep building until/if that happens.

You can easily edit your own post.

Great game to own during a lockdown.

I dropped the streaming equipment at Gerry's yesterday and got to play it a few times. Man, this game is really fun. I was definitely getting the "just one more game" feeling and was super impressed with the crane, very versatile and well integrated into the game.

It's also a bash toy which is really cool.

Looking forward to putting even more time on it! Well done Gerry and team!

Jeez, I'm super tempted to get one.. How long is the estimated wait for a new buyer (full game not just the drop-in)?

With the caveat that all production estimates are subject to the change due to the current virus situation, you're currently looking at probably 3-4 weeks for a new machine w/ Heist.

That mini playfield had more on it than some full games

Imagine with the crane the games people can make now! I'm so excited for this as a game and for other people that want to tinker and create games!

Yep, that playfield is packed, diverters and VUKs everywhere

Super packed. 2 magnets, multiple diverters, a pop, bunches of stand-ups, 2 ramps and that crane! Extremely versatile and works perfectly. I've been amazed at how well.

My daughters have been playing pretty much non-stop today... I have to beg them to let me join in.

As far as making games with it... I might have an idea or two... But gotta finish one thing before moving to the next, haha!

There's a side job where you are tasked with trapping a ball under the upper flipper... Instead of returning the ball to be re-shot like many games, the ball is actually safely tucked under the flipper - when the scoring is completed the flipper pops up and out comes your ball.

It's like magic and would be better expressed in a video by someone who can play well.
