    several things could affect ball travel

    are machines level?
    pitch of machine?
    cleaned and waxed?
    raised/cupped inserts (although the two titles you mentioned shouldnt have this issue)
    bubbled mylar (although the two titles you mentioned shouldnt have this issue)

    some Sterns you want to nudge the machine when the ball is leaving the orbit to return it back to the flipper, MET is one of them (if your talking about how the ball returns to the flippers)

    Quoted from Atrain:

    The ball is wild for sure. I was wondering if there was something in the playfield that was added to make the different movement. I have played games before with the same feel as AFMr. I just can't describe it very well. Maybe it is the difference of angles the games are set up at and that does it.

    check the bubble in the shooterlane
