Quoted from Doctor6:Not that I can tell. I played the crap out of the new code, and it works great still.
End of the Line is within reach with this new code. I did three CIU modes tonight, and that was after accidentally starting Seek and Destroy. If I had left the last insert column alone, getting a fourth would have been within my grasp!
I did 3 CIU as well so I will try to do 4 soon. I love the super spinner!

Quoted from Fezmid:Found a change in 1.8 that I'm not happy with on the Premium. With the last version of the code, when you hit a ramp, the arrow started flashing blue and the opposite ramp started flashing red to let you know what ramps to hit for a combo. If you hit the right ramp, the piston target behind FUEL would also light red, letting you know to aim for that. Now when you hit a ramp, it turns blue, but there's no indication to hit the opposite one for a combo. Kinda sucks that they'd take a feature out...
There is a setting for this behavior in the game specific settings.
- Added combo lights adjustment. Default is FLASH ONCE (show lamps once
for a small period of time, then turn the lights off). Other settings:
ALWAYS and NONE. Competition + Director's Cut are set to FLASH ONCE.

Quoted from Fezmid:I also think there's a bug with the colors but I can't figure out how to reproduce. There have been several times where I've seen the arrow behind the right orbit (behind the spinner) flash a peach color a few times before stopping. Not sure what that is about but it never used to do that...
It's a light orange lol... and it's not a bug. It means the super spinner is lit for bigger points. A super spinner is qualified by completing a set of guitar picks.

Quoted from J85M:Unfortunately it seems that it’s becoming the pinside norm these days. Take the Beatles reveal thread 5-7 pages of pure moaning and negativity about a game none of us had seen or played.
I think I would be a bit upset too if there was a game theme I really wanted and it was priced ridiculously high with just an average layout and rules. But, since I am not a Beatles fan it doesn't really bother me.
There's lots to be thankful for in the hobby though and I am grateful Lyman polished up Metallica like he has. When I first bought Metallica 5 years ago, I wasn't really sure I liked it. I wasn't a Metallica fan, but I wanted another game after ACDC and this seemed like a good choice. I have come to appreciate that the gameplay can be approached different ways. You pick what you want to do on your journey on and through the CIU modes. And it's just so fun because of that diversity, great dots, sound, lights, music and rules. Just an overall great experience to play!
Colordmd is icing on the cake!
