EM- 5 ball
Solid State- 3, or 5
Modern- 3 & leave EB on, or adjust outlanes, PF angle, tilt, and settings if too hard.
Pinball is supposed to be difficult and fun at the same time. 5 ball on a modern game with minute+ ball times is just too long, especially if you have 3-4 players, and extras, etc..
Going 5 ball just cause a game is new is like skipping chapters in a book, don't you want to enjoy the challenge a bit? Doesn't anyone enjoy finding things and figuring out the rules?
