Quoted from SunKing:Devil horn inserts, bell lock, strobe MB, cannon modes, live songs in game. I can think of a few....
Your spot on. There's still a good amount left to implement. For the price we paid for these games and with how popular ACDC pinball has been it should have complete code.
Quoted from RobT:What competition?
The company that will be remaking a 17 year old pin? Or the other company, who also released a pin with woefully incomplete code?
I don't consider either of them to be viable competition in terms of releasing NEW pins with complete code.
Its more important how you finish and JJP has been releasing code updates regularly (I think around 20 since April) for WOZ with a lot of content in it and there's still more to come. They released rule screens over 6 month ago for an extremely deep ruleset and are seeing it through which is a nice change in this industry. It seems like ACDC is the only game from Stern in recent years that many of us can say has close to, or complete, software. I just hope that some of their other titles, especially MET (sounds like an update is coming soon), get complete. I know with ACDC I held off on buying one for a while just to see how many more code updates it would get.
Quoted from charliex:I heard that the ACDC code is done and they have just been slow to release. Should be coming soon.
Wow, really? That would be awesome. The last update was in March so having another would be great considering how some game play features could be used more.
Besides Star Trek its been really quiet in general on the Stern code front.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:That would be an awesome mode. Plus you could have it, that when you lock the 3rd ball in, you play the mini playfield to determine what your jackpots are worth. Maybe have it so the mini increases it 1 million per hit. Light the grid fully at first. If you make all 5 shots, then each shot only lights one at a time, adding a million to your jackpot each time. So everytime you do that multiball, you could have 1 million jackpots one game, or 20 million on another, depending on how well you did on the mini.
Great ideas. I hope we get another update for ACDC. Its been nearly a year since we received an update...
Quoted from Deaconblooze:What's the benefit to us as consumers? The only thing I see is Stern potentially increasing their profit margins.
Sadly that's probably the truth. I doubt they will lower the prices of new games that use the boards and increase the amount of interactive toys in their games...
