Jurassic Park (Stern 2019) Owners Club. Welcome! To Jurassic park.....

Code update went well. Game over animation added to the visuals along with many code polishes.

Got mine on Thursday. Washers under star posts and they don't look bad - that's ok. No issues that I have encountered or seen. Very Nice looking game. Looks even better in person than promotional photos, streams etc. Some shots are fairly easy, some more difficult. A combo of flow and a little stop and go. Different layout.

Action button on hold down bar has limited use for this game but I could see them coding in other uses.

One thing I can't find in settings for this game is to turn off Action Button for starting games. Maybe it's not programmed in. I always like to to turn that setting off so folks with big bellys or big boobs don't start games accidentally when leaning over the game looking at the playfield.

All I see is a washer and the edge of a washer in his photo. I don't see any bunching, wrinkling or pooling or whatever going on in that photo.

You might be looking at the edge of the washer or the reflection of the edge... optical illusion - at least on his photo....

I don't think he is being cocky. He was just showing his game has washers installed by the factory and it appears his playfield is ok - at least so far. My game also has washers and I don't see any issues on mine around the posts. But yes, I will keep an eye on it.

Sure, there are some playfields that have some kind of issue of the surface being raised around some playfield posts. Hope Stern can figure out why this is occurring and they and their suppliers can eliminate that issue from happening.

Yes - I too have noticed that repetitive line. Maybe they could code in a few different dialog lines and have them play at random for that spot or do something else. When the guy says "Why would Nedry do this ? " maybe it could be fun when playing a multiplayer game to have each player reply with his own clever response. Or take a swig from your beer each time you hear this. After awhile you might not hear it so much.

Getting Chaos multiball is tough for me. Spelling it in order makes it a hard one to start.

I wonder if they could add in optional easier settings - like letting you complete the letters out of order. The letter A ramp is a tougher shot than it looks. I usually hit it one or two times a game but not when I need it.

The game has some challenging shots to it along with some easier ones.

The truck moves better if you reduce playfield pitch a hair. If your pitch is a little high the truck doesn't pivot as easy. Just a little adjustment to pitch will make a difference for the truck moving.

I missed the rubber band on the truck too initially but found that after about 5 minutes of play. The truck still wasn't moving with every hit. My pitch was slightly steep and backing off pitch a hair made the truck swivel much easier with any hits.

On the post by the flipper I tightened it about another 3/4 of a turn when initially setting the game up. Post has stayed tight. About 100 plays so far.

I tried moving the left outlane post down to see if I got less left outlane drains. To me it seemed to still get about the same number, just different types of left drains. I moved the post back to the original position after a handful of games.

I wouldn't say the game is a drain monster anyway. It is a bit of a tougher shooter. That right ramp where the letter A is looks easy - but it isn't. I struggle with that one. Have not completed CHAOS much at all. Game is fun. Sure isn't a gimme on a number of shots, though some are easier. Good mix of difficulty.
I'm an average player so I find the play fairly challenging. There does seem to be something for everybody though.

After you smooth it , maybe dip the end in some plastic handle type stuff they make for tools etc.
Black would probably be good.

Mine has a green spring and it plunges fine if you want to hard plunge. Soft plunge for secret skill shots are fine too. Guess the springs even though they are supposed to have different tensile and power may vary even within a certain color code.

Actually I think it's Houdini that has power issues from the substations, sunspots or the Russian satellites having effects on the machine.

I'd look at those coil stops for flipper issues on J. Park, seems that is the first place to suspect.

Yes - Raptor pit is extremely tough. I have not activated Raptor multiball yet.
It could use an option for easier settings in game adjustments.

Likewise for Chaos - could use an option to make it easier for us average type players.

I have done that with back hand shots , you play better than me. I usually drain at some point.

@ Bone - Any further problems contact your distributor.

Yup - both damn files. It's actually pretty easy to do. No worries.

No No No - not the read me file. Just the game code link.
Game code link will have a compressed folder with two files in it. Just use the game code link.
Download the compressed folder. Open up the folder after downloaded and copy the two game code files onto your usb stick...

I don't know about them being skipped, but the time sure could be shortened.

Nice - the lock down button can now be turned off to disable starting games that way. Big bellies or big boobs will no longer start games accidentally with the setting set to No.

Furry Hats for GOTG is a reference to Rocket the Raccoon

I wouldn't swap either. The big ugly plant vagina or swollen anus thing behind the curtain or wall on Strange Things is hideous. I'd be too scared to even play one. Play your JP and let them swap later for a new one.

...The plant vagina on Stranger Things will take a lot of hits - it might be even more prone to chipping than a playfield is ...

Dinosaurs are friendly looking compared to that thing

So you suggest holding off on loading update for now ?

Ok - thanks.

That's about the first thing I do with all my games that have a button on the lockdown bar.

Prevents big bellies and big boobs from accidentally starting a game.
