Quoted from lowepg:

Sorry but its ridiculous to think any real company is going to let people publish negatively on facebook....

Actually most real companies allow this. Walmart, Best Buy, Target all leave it unless you post profanity. Even Game of Thrones' daddy HBO allows it there. It is a similar process to negative product reviews. The train of thought being that if you delete it, the customer will go somewhere else where they have no control (like pinside) and just be more vocal about their issues and rile up the masses and reinforce a negative image of them. These companies allow it and try to address it at an individual comment basis to show they care and to quiet the negativity as much as possible.

Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

Does "exciting sword fight display mode" mean a video mode on this one?

Yes, the apron says one of the things you use the button to do is "Wield your sword in the video mode"

Quoted from chuckwurt:

Also, be ready for the LEDs in the flood lights on the slings to pop out like other games. How the hell has Stern not remedied this yet? Seems like a simple fix if you mess with it for a bit.

Funny as this happened to ours on route the first day. Op had to send over someone to get it out of the inlane so it could be played again.

Quoted from LOTR_breath:

We had both GOT pro's reset more than once during our launch party, running v.1.02. We tried for several hours before the launch to update the code and completely struck out. We even tried 5 different thumb drives and 2 different downloads of the code. Anyone have similar problems?

We had this same problem. Just in case anyone else hadn't seen this in the other thread, the failed update was because the file is named incorrectly on Stern's website. It was missing an "_" so they game doesn't read it correctly. Once you rename it, it works fine.

The op near me got his yesterday. I got to the Iron Throne wizard mode last night, but it doesn't seem like it's all there yet. It starts as a multiball, but it seemed like the mode locked up when I drained down to one ball. The red arrows were lit for shots and I would combo the center ramp, left orbit a lot, but I didn't really get points for it and the same graphic was displayed on the screen the entire time. I did it on ball 2 and when I started ball 3, I was still in Iron Throne with the same problem. I just kept throwing it up to the pops to get my bonus x up as that was the only thing to award points. It sucked cause I couldn't really get much for points on ball 2 and 3 cause of it. Anyone know how it is supposed to work?

Quoted from Ballsofsteel:

finally played the pro today at pinball jones in fort Collins.
the shots are more fun then I imagined, the light show and color changing inserts are great.
got wall multi ball, started some kinda 'king' mode, lit the dragon house (the insert/house that isn't selectable vs dragon). I closed out 5 houses I think? got some great combos going, the game has the best flow I've ever encountered (no magnets and vuks).
few letdowns was the 'show' clips on the dmd, they seemed super distorted (reminded me of SM), low pixel quality. was cool to see the mammoth? clip come up. the 'video mode' reminded me of playing pitfall on Atari, but i'm sure they will update it.
The dragons wings flapping was cool, about what I expected.
got 980,000,000 on my 4th or 5th game I think, I can't wait to see what they do with the code.
overall the shots and depth of the code is already making this machine a combo monster. ball times are long, but it's refreshing as I enjoy the higher scoring system as well.

The "some kinda king mode" is the Hand of the King mini wizard mode...very lucrative at this point. The main wizard mode Iron Throne...not so much.
