Quoted from CrazyLevi:As a tournament player, this required a significant adjustment. The ball was more difficult to trap now, and center area shots were also changed drastically and more difficult to hit.
On the other side, orbit and side ramps were now much easier, or at least much more common with a "missed" shot..
This is exactly what I see! I had an original AFM for a few years and when I would play a remake this describes my experience perfectly.
