So people are complaining that wood looks like...wood? I hope vid1900 will share his opinion here.

Its’s impossible to see any playfield defects in normal play, because the game is so dark. I really can’t believe they’re still using the same lighting system as they did in WoZ.

It may just be a bad adjustment on the particular one that’s on location near me. Barcade just added it, and it’s much darker than the Champion Pub and Metallica on either side of it.

Complete opposite experience for me. My 2004 LOTR has poor color registration, and the ring insert popped out when I cleaned it a little from the bottom. My 2013 Metallica Pro’s playfield still looks like the day I brought it home.

The worst thing about this thread is that we’ll have “no ribbing!” (or “no ribing”) on every other FS ad now.

I think we’ve established that ribbing is not noticeable from the player’s position (unless you install 2000 lumens of strip lighting), and it doesn’t affect playfield wear. So what are we actually talking about here?
