First, hats off to Stern for getting out yet another code update today! Looking forward to seeing the changes in action.

Poll#3:

Playing the Pro, I get a little frustrated in MODES when Hurry-Ups start. I don't mind the Hurry-Ups being there, but the Sound and Countdown Video Clips seem to take priority.

This actually happens more than half the time whenever I'm in a mode.

It's even more disruptive when this happens during a Mini Wizard mode (like destroy the Deathstar). It suspends my feeling of being in the the trench.

Where should the Priority be?

How do you feel? Suggestions on how to keep the cool Hurry-Ups, but not let them interfere with the modes?

Quoted from TheLaw:

Without the hurry-ups do you really feel like you're in the trench? Like if someone calls you think it's Vaders ship and freak out?

I am TOTALLY cool with Hurry-Ups that are already a part of the mode you are in. Love those.

It's the way HyperSpace Hurry-ups and Tie Hurry-Ups take over the screen and make me miss seeing clips from the Mode I'm in.

Imagine you are about to finally destroy the DeathStar after making 7+ shots, and then the music changes to the Tie Hurry-Up with nothing but a Millennium Falcon and countdown numbers on the screen... (Making me miss out on hearing Obi say "Use the Force Luke"

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

Anybody notice Star Wars pinball polls are trending

Quoted from Dr-Willy:

i think we should start a poll to see how the polls are doing.

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

Star Wars pinball polls are popping up so fast, ain't nobody got time for noticing what's trending. But believe me comrades, the polls are trending.

Funny stuff guys. At least you voted. Thank you.

This is awesome stuff.

I appreciate your perspectives.

Not all adjustments are good or wanted by the masses.

BTW, I also like all the stacking. This thread is more about the Audio and Video interrupting the modes.

But so far it looks like pinside prefers this aspect oc yhd code to stay as is.
