Well, I guess I'm one of the fanboys, too. I have to admit, today, I went to JJP FB page and JJP home page at least 20 times today hoping for the announcement.

Are you getting the latest Stern announced or are you getting GnR from JJP that might be the pin of the year?

Remember, this is all in good fun.

I feel like Eric and Keith have the whole company on their back at this point. Hope they are paid well.

Neither unfortunately. GnR is another theme miss for me but I’d love to buy a JJP in the future if the theme is right. Avengers is a miss for me too although Kieth makes great games so if I had disposable cash I’d probably get it.

#2565 3 years ago

So while I’d like to get this pin to compliment my DE GNR, it seems to be going downhill with the unconfirmed and past track record.

First off, a standard body is just a big thumbs down. Considering Eric’s prior machine is a wide and GNR is a wide, rumors of this not being wide is just in the wrong direction. Just had a full day of Indy and how horrible that machine would have been as a standard body. And this talk of less is better is just plain ridiculous.

JJP POTC didn’t really have any code updates to speak of. Not a good look. If this is what we have to look forward to in JJP#6 then I’ll pass. I don’t own a single Stern but props to them for updating code on the regular

GNR in 2020. Again, love the band and my DE GNR is just a pin that’s not leaving. It’s fun everytime I play it. Not sure how this works and may be irrelevant. When you have a PinSound with an unlimited Song list and then you’re about to drop 10-12k for a limited song list. Hmmm.

There’s a very high bar this pin needs to cross. If they do, take my money. If it comes out equal to Avengers or less. Naw naw naw to the hell naw, I’ll pass and enjoy it on location

Time will tell. Hope I’m wrong

I’m not a big widebody fan. Definitely looking forward to what Eric can bring to a standard width pin. GnR deserves a fast game; widebodies are seldom fast. I don’t need Axl’s world under glass.

Quoted from donkadelic:

I would be so in for this game if it weren't a crap band that hasn't been relevant in 25+ years. And in my opinion, never was.
Just complete pop-rock ballad cokehead nonsense music.
Why not Deftones or something, or NOFX. If the music involves men wearing tights it's garbage I'm sorry.

Sleepless night for me again.
Can't wait for JJP GnR pin

Stumbled across further history from A.F.D. one of my favorite albums along with Use your Illusion.
Man, Slash is a champion, Would be super cool if he could chime in about the pin every once in a while.
So cool Slash is gonna make the pin awesome.

This is the main reason why I like the spooky/api coding numbers. Use the date it is released, not a number. Why people think a number means anything is beyond me. The coding that is in 0.99 potc is FAR BEYOND 99% of other games that are above the 1.00 made up number.

Chris gets it!

When you make a piece of software, the version number has two purposes only:

1. Have a way to differentiate one build from another, so you know which builds have the fixes/features
2. Have a way to determine which build a user is running, so you know whether or not they need to upgrade.

A common strategy in my world is Major/Minor/Patch.

- Software is released to the public, it’s 1.0.0. Period.
- A critical issue is found that needs a hotfix (crash or similar) - 1.0.1 is released.
- We add a feature the user might notice - 1.1.0 is released.
- We add major feature changes, look and feel differences, or a big rewrite - 2.0.0 is released.

And this is exactly why I did it. Balcer gave crap about it since it was different (I like different) but I’ve seen guys see a version of .93 and say things like, “it’s now at 93% complete. “

When asked how complete a games is I usually throw a decimal on the end 92.7%, most get that I am joking, but I’ve seen guys take that seriously.

I also get asked if a game is complete or when it will be, and the answer is “when we have run out of ideas or just totally happy with it.”

Oktoberfest got a code update a few days ago.
Houdini will get one next month.
Hot wheels gets one in a week or two as well.

We still have ideas for all of them.

Regardless of numbering Keith, Ted and rest of the team have shown they continually provide care and feeding to older games. Comments about them not updating code are just silly.

#2578 3 years ago
Quoted from thechakapakuni:

Versions numbers can be whatever the coder wants them to be
There is no indication that it's a beta or a stable or a final version
What matters there is the release notes, typically in my company we only use the third digit for bug fixes, a new feature goes in one digit above.

#2579 3 years ago
Quoted from kermit24:

Ben Heck has said the CGC game is NOT Evil Dead anymore.

I wasn't asking about the game. I was asking why this user was suggesting Bruce is horrible to work with, as I've seen anything but that reaction from the horror community.

Obviously, anyone can be an entirely different figure than they present themselves to be publicly.

Quoted from rosh:

Regardless of numbering Keith, Ted and rest of the team have shown they continually provide care and feeding to older games. Comments about them not updating code are just silly.

They definitely do! But an easy way to allay people's constant fears (Not mine. I'm in no rush.) would be to exercise some transparency regarding the status and intentions towards game code. And yes, I also understand that making statements on such issues may be out of their hands for reasons unspoken to the direct public...but if that's the case, then PR or the owner could step in, and discuss plans and initiatives such as these.

Again, this isn't really an issue for myself, unless it never occurs, but communication in this industry isn't exactly always continuous and readily occurring.

I do feel you folks at AP are pretty direct and readily available. That is a plus for me regarding AP for sure!

Then why are there still countless threads with issues. Quit defending beta code and few update. Get off the less is more train esp when problems still exist. Code should not only be bug fixes but features. Spooky is a good example. Scott put new features/rules into his pins. So let’s just admit POTC really didn’t do much in the way of code updates nor fix known problems. So point is, JJP should make a statement about keeping up the code this round to sway us on the fence

Pat L. did make a statement last year. All new games going forward will have "completed" code that may get additional bells and whistles as updates. Meaning more light shows, call outs, animations, etc could still follow, but the core game code will be there.

This is likely why JJPOTC has been on hold to complete the code before release on next titles. Keith will get to it. I'm just wild guessing that he is the lead programmer on JJP #6 and that takes extra time. If he's not the lead on JJP #7, we might see something for JJPOTC once the JJP #6 needs die down. Just speculations.

#2582 3 years ago
Quoted from BallPin:

Heard from 2 reliable sources that JJPs next pin will NOT be GnR. Instead it will be Toy Story.
GnR is actually done and was scheduled to come out before Toy Story, but...well....that's all I can say.

So, was BallPin just a troll? What he said appears to be wrong, and his account is no longer active.

Yeah, but isn't that what a lot of people's speculation has been for the past 1-1/2 years? That they'll get through working on a current project and then finish POTC? But then of course something else comes along to take priority, and so the speculation changes to OK they'll get it done after that project. And then the next project comes along to take priority and speculation conveniently changes to OK now they'll get it done after this project... and the cycle just keeps repeating? And still some people keep thinking THIS time it'll get done after their next priority project?

Meanwhile the facts of the situation seem to speak for the last 1-1/2 years pretty clearly:
- no new POTC games for them to sell
- only 2 updates since the games started shipping (the Sept '18 updates were prior to games shipping) when all other JJP games got a lot more attention for minor updates
- no positive statements from JJP indicating it's any kind of a priority to them for well over a year. Their only comment has been it'll get released when the wizard mode is done, and to me that's not a positive statement. That's indicating longer delay.

I haven't seen any reason to be confident a POTC update can get to the top of their priority list soon enough for them to get it done before something else comes along to bump it back down the list again. Any attempt to try to guess when it will be done or what order they'll finish projects is purely wishful thinking at this point, because the facts seem pretty clear that this update gets pushed down their priority list pretty easily.

Prior to shipping POTC, JJP had announced that POTC would be feature complete when it shipped. So Pat Lawler's announcement last year shouldn't be treated as though it's some new thing that didn't apply to POTC.

As much as I hate to admit it, Stern is killing it. Deeproot flaked out, and GnR will come and go as Wonka did, with some fanfare, but nothing significant. It's all about theme. JJP just can't seem to put it all together. They recycle (god knows why) and choose themes that are either irrelevant (pirates) or love/hate (gnr). Imagine if Hobbit had the gameplay of pirates? It would have been their smash hit. They can't milk woz forever.

I don't claim to be a genius, but theme choice does not seem like rocket-science. Choose something that MOST people like and make sure the game plays great. Toy Story should do this as long as the theme is integrated well, the gameplay is awesome and it doesn't sound like a slot machine.

Yeah I couldn’t agree more. I’m a GNR fan and not really a Toy Story fan BUT right now it just makes sense for JJP to release a Toy Story over a GNR. I’d love to see GNR, esp a game changer but Toy Story would sell way better

#2591 3 years ago

JJP may be taking longer than we’d like but they certainly aren’t as near a colossal fuck up like Deeproot. I think if GnR is next it will do well. At least I believe JJP when they say they’ll reveal this month. I think if they were smart they’d show something today or tomorrow. Cash in on the Deeproot disappointment.

Didn’t wonka win best theme? I gotta say I love all of their themes with exception to DI, and even that one I like. Stern doesn’t hit every theme either. How relevant is munsters, Batman 66, black knight? They re-did themes like rehashed JP, rehashed tmnt, and rehashed Star Wars, avengers? Some themes are timeless and can be remade, and honestly most of them probably deserve a remake like potc, Star Wars, Jurassic park. It’s all personal choice, and I can’t wait to see gnr and toy story.

Stern always has at least 1 or 2 duds a year but can afford it as they also have 2 or 3 hits a year as well. Stranger Things for example bombed terribly, BK SOR didn't do well either, Munsters wasn't well received, and Beatles seems to be a dud.

Stern is only killing it in terms of production and releasing games quickly. Personally I'll take quality over quantity.
