Quoted from DS_Nadine:How long till 6PM Spooky? It's allready midnight here.
haha about 1hr
Quoted from 2Kaulitz:haha about 1hr
Thx, I think I may be able to manage that.
I hope they don't talk to much beforehand.
Would watch the recording tomorrow, but how I know my luck Twitch will cut out the sound. XD
Quoted from Chalkey:Anyone know if the game at pinburgh had the latest code? Seemed really lacking and about the same as it was at Texas. I'm also yet to see anyone be able to hit it up the ramp on the upper playfield, even with a solid shot.
Nope, that was the final viewing of that prototype game from what I understand. Old code, original build, etc...
We should see a production game tonight!! Wooo hooooo!

I saw the ball going up there often. I played the RnR Hall of Fame one today and no problems there either.
I understand that there is newer code on the game that will be shown tonight.

Stream delayed a moment.
Hold tight!!
They already explained they literally just put new code on it. Shit happens, chill the fuck out people.
yeah but it doesnt look fun at all, v v limited shots and hard as hell. this aint no maiden. sadly. going to sell my spot in line i think. unless this improves ALOT. sad.

I like the lighting and the animations on the lcd but thats about where it ends unfortunately for me .... regardless congrats to spooky on another pin .
Lighting and animations are dope. Looks like Bowen is having some issues hitting shots. Not sure if it just because they are tight or if he’s had too much spotted cow
Quoted from Billy16:If Bowen can't hit the shots (no matter what his state), the rest of us are in real trouble...
ABSOLUTELY. Selling my spot in morning. Crappy playfield as I suspected. Damn shame.
Yeah, I don't want to join the bash parade, but what I'm seeing shooting wise, isn't good. So many rejected balls, not even just post hits. A shame too, because everything else looks so good. The lighting is amazing, as is the display.
they just said the left spinner is being prototyped and that's why so many rejects. I thought this game is shipping already right? Maybe I misheard. I love the look of this game.

I think he mispoke. He just meant that this one is a prototype, maybe? Kind of a silly excuse because it's just a spinner, but he's right, it is angling forward and that would cause more rejects than normal.
I know for a fact that particular game was built TODAY.
Maybe not ideal for a stream - but it is what it is.
I played 2 different ACNC in the last two days ... yes, shots are tight but very makeable. If you want an easy game with no challenge, that’d be a bit boring wouldn’t it?
Had no problems making the top playfield from either ramp.

wow - feel bad for this stream right now. I'm rooting for spooky but if this was a stern stream - holy ___ this place would be melting down. brand new game maybe not ideal but that's why planning is super important especially for the reveal (finally).
I've played this game last weekend and I had fun - it feels very good.
Yah, the stream and machine have some issues...but this looks sooooo sweet to me! Art work, light show, and gameplay seem spot on. I was worried about Alice and the call outs, but not anymore. The comic-bookish animations are really cool. For the haters, SW Stern stream was a disaster...the deathstar half opened and didn’t light. That shot is one of the most satisfying now (premium fork ramp) IMHO. I think the shots look fun and it has the speed I like. Upper playfield is well done too. If you pay attention to how the shots are made, certainly doable. Sooo glad I pulled the trigger...here comes my first Spooky!
I’m not watching the stream - I waited an hour but had to leave the hotel to eat some food.
My takeaway from quite a few plays over the weekend -
- killer artwork. Way better than the pictures. That cartoon style isn’t my type of artwork but it really looks good. Both PF and Cab look great.
- display looks awesome. Awesome cartoon graphics 100% in tune with the theme.
- sound - the Pinburgh one was quite quiet, but the RNR Hall of Fame one was louder. What I heard sounded really good.
- gameplay - as I said, shots are tight, but makeable. “Play better” and you can make them. I fully realise that a lot of guys in this hobby don’t want to “get better” .. that’s over to you. I prefer a game that challenges me to be a better player. If a game doesn’t do that, it goes out the door pretty quick.
- castle looks really cool.
Happy with my order, and look forward to receiving it.
