While it works in the video game industry, I think it would be a terrible idea for the pinball industry, its hard enough for some manufacturers to get code completed for the base game, imagine adding the work load of additional code, plus how would you know what is part of the standard code and what will be extra/paid for?

Fully coded, complete games, some deep (TWD, TSPP) some shallow (IM, TRON) depending on play style but all base code complete upon release or within the first 12 months of release would be ideal and welcome. And if extras get added like CIU in MET etc that's just the icing on the cake, but at current pin prices there should be no additional paid for code!

Yeah I don’t get your comment either, the last 10 months haven’t been great but now we have code coming with more scheduled finally some light at the end of this tunnel.

Genuinely excited to see what lyman has planned for the minor villains, very unique and innovative code is a bold claim but if anyone can back it up and deliver the goods it’s Lyman.

DI is pretty damn fun IMO, so much so my misses who is not a player at all wants one, in perspective I haven't been able to ever talk her into paying for a pin before, but she is all up for going halves on a DI

Admittedly my misses likes the emojis and selfies

Oh well you can’t win them all, she’s got her looks going for her

That might be the most exciting thing I have heard so far this year, Brian is simply awesome he’s either designed or coded some of my favourite games ever made can’t wait to see what he can do with a new game

I don’t see why Eddy couldn’t do an Elwood and make up his own rules for his own games, heck Eddy could probably code the thing himself too.

Indiana Jones, The Shadow and didn’t he code Funhouse? All 3 of those are pinball greats, very exciting to see Eddy return to pinball, well done Stern!

That will be a shame especially for GOTG, I just watched that video you linked Sinestro in the owners club thread and Save Xander is completely lacklustre it’s just the scene from the movie playing nothing about it is interactive or really feels that linked/connected to gameplay what the player is shooting, it could have been an epic multi stage wizard mode instead it’s a movie reel - and I have an LE on its way to me.

After ST VE which none of us saw coming, there is every chance we might see a GOT VE at some point, which would hopefully bring a minor update/bug fix like ST is getting likely fuelled by the VE release.

GOT VE with changes is pretty interesting but I don’t buy that the BOM on a TSPP VE is too much for Stern to swallow, the prices of Premiums and especially LEs these days are surely enough for Stern to make a nice profit even on a TSPP VE and it’s a VE I would definitely be interested in if it came with upgraded sound etc

Because I think there is an finite number of titles that could be released/vaulted, TSPP is one of those titles that I think would do well as a VE as it’s often seen on here in posts along with TRON as a VE that is wanted.

The Kiss code is coming along with GB & AS. Plus there’s no need to Vault Kiss, if what people say is true there are lot of distributors who still have Kiss stock.

Corrected to Lyman.

Sauron is in the game, I haven’t seen the Mr Sinister mode though, as far as I was aware it wasn’t coded yet, where have you seen that? Got a link to hand?

Wasn’t on the SOU announcement this month but looks like GOTG just got another code update little tweaks but still another code up!

New code seems to have just dropped.

PRO/PREM/LE V1.04 - Sept. 6, 2018
=====================

- Added USA_13 Coinage 1/$1.00, 7/$5.00
- Update to nodeboard firmware v0.25.0
- Added adjustment to scale GI, Insert, and Flasher LED brightness, range
is 25% to 100%.
- Added adjustment to limit GI, Insert, and Flasher LED Max brightness, range
is 64 to 255.

Please tell me your joking? That’s nuts!

You said the colour GI isn’t coded, I would expect that to be coded especially since it’s a asvertised on the feature matrix and one of the reasons some people may have brought a Prem/LE.

And colour GI has nothing to do with code depth, so you have lost me a little there although if anything better lightshows draw in casual players and are a nice pay off for better players.

Just doesn’t make sense to have colour GI and not code it/use it.

That’s exactly what I meant, if there is colour GI it should most definitely be coded and used.

I was surprised when you posted saying it wasn’t, as colour GI is awesome in games like TWD and a game like GOTG would benefit from some colour GI in the code as the game is gorgeous!

It’s a great approach, offers something for everyone, I just can’t understand why they would put coloured GI in a game and then not code it or use it.
