Pricing sucks with all the delays but I can't imagine owning an MMR and not having the color display as it is leagues ahead of a standard color display.
Tough decision.
So, having played a few MMR , they play differently to original MM. Hard to describe but flippers feel more floaty and slings are less responsive.
Are there any adjustments in the settings to get the flippers/slings more B/W like?
Asking because I want AFMR but not if it can't be adjusted to play like an AFM.
Quoted from LTG:In CGC menu you can make the flippers stronger or weaker.
Sounds like the slingshot leaf blades on the games you played could be adjusted for better response.
LTG : )
Good to hear.
So, it is possible to get an MMR to play similar to an MM?
Quoted from venom112:Wondering if the flippers feel more floaty to you because they are actually very responsive being brand new. All of the original MM I have played were pretty beat up and the flippers were pretty weak etc... Maybe cause it has brand new flippers they are very responsive.
Played it 3 times and every time it has been next to brand new Sterns/Hobbit/Woz etc and restored AFM/MM etc.
It just feels 'off' and the flippers feel different.
I am only asking because I want AFMR but not if it plays differently to the many AFM I have played.
I think these videos illustrate what I am trying to describe.
Original MM flippers look 'tighter' whereas MMR flippers seem they are more loose. Not a flipper expert but I can feel the difference and on these videos I can see the difference.
You can see the 'wobble' of the MMR flippers. Have spoken to friends and they agree so it is not just me.
Guessing they might be built differently?
And can anything be done? AFMR is off my list if this is how flippers will be.
Original flippers.
MMR.
Quoted from EricHadley:I think you are being very nit-picky. I've played MM and MMr and the only thing I notice is most MM's are old and need flipper rebuilds..... MMr plays fine, move along.......
Er, why should I move along - are you a moderator? Sorry for having an opinion
It plays different - end of. I am just trying to figure out why so that I will be informed should I decide to purchase an AFMR.
Quoted from EricHadley:New flippers will always play different than 20 year old flippers.....move along
Did you not just read what I wrote? Comparing to new Sterns and restored games.
So.......
Quoted from Rarehero:They're literally the same parts that are on a regular MMr. They're not built differently. The game allows you to set the flipper coil strength. Some report it to strong from factory so they set it lower, me personally, I felt it was too weak from factory so I set it to +3 and it feels awesome. I suggest you try to play one where the owner allows you to monkey with the flipper settings.
That is good to hear as you have a lot of games and comparisons. Are they B/W flippers/mechs then?
Quoted from Rarehero:Yes. Literally everything mechanical on the game are the same parts you'd buy for a regular MM. The only thing different is the CPU/PCB system.
Well, that is strange and can only think the 3 MMR I have played have not been set up correctly.
Looking forward to AFMR which might be announced soon hopefully
Quoted from Rarehero:Every Ghostbusters I've played has played like shit, but every owner will tell you theirs plays awesome. So - I dunno what to tell ya! I think my MMr plays awesome and feels like the old MM's I've played. If you're not feeling it, just get an old AFM.
I want an AFMR because of the new HD dots - that is the USP.
As long as it plays fast then that will be good enough for me......if the price is right
