I owned a BR for quite a while and really liked it. It's a game you have to really understand the rules to appreciate, and you need to have it set up to play fast. Great game and very unique.

Quoted from rcbrown316:

Launch shot just plain sucks and ends up in the right drain with "ya get another chance" if you don't have the plunger at the perfect draw to hit the skill shot that opens the locker. Bad flow right outta the gate.

Launch shot isn't set up right then, you need to adjust the guide the ball comes out to hit the ramp correctly, shouldn't drain on launch, had to fix that on mine.

Has nothing to do with the plunger btw... it is just a simple adjustment on the metal ball guide that the ball comes out of, adjust the screw in there to where it hits the ramp cleanly! It makes a night and day difference in the game!

POTC is great! I had that, Black Rose, and Waterworld all at the same time, love all the ship sinking mechanisms in the games. Honestly Waterworld is a great game too, much better than Hook imo. POTC is around a 4-4500 dollar game as well....

Glad you fixed your launch issue RC, It made my game 100 times more enjoyable once I fixed mine!
