Quoted from Trindawg:

Why did this game get so many bad reviews when it first came out? I’m joining the club in a couple days. I’m trading my stranger things pro for a SW Pro on Friday. Was it the early code or something. Table layout ? Please someone fill me in.

I just joined the club on Friday - I loved the movies (except the last 3...), and yet couldn't get into this game up to now. For me it definitely was the code - there is just something about Dwight's rulesets that I haven't cared for. I am finding I'm liking it more and more with more time in a home environment to grasp all the details and fun shots though. It definitely has nailed the theme integration, and even stuck with the original trilogy - great move.

I'm still not crazy about the three-bank multiplier targets/multiplier system in general and the usage of the mini-screen though. And I don't want to handicap myself by disabling mode stacking, but having two modes stacked plus combo shots lit often results in nearly every shot being lit, muddying the actually very interesting/fun modes. "Who cares, shoot everything - its all lit" is an exaggeration, but not THAT far away from reality and was initially definitely a turnoff for me.

Quoted from setzkor:

Ok, I'm in the process of setting my premium up for play-ability...
First, are the standup targets near the orbit supposed to "peak" into the orbit itself, or is it supposed to be centered on that plastic? I'm getting a lot of bricks that hit the spinner, then come screaming back down. Just wondering where this standup is supposed to be positioned.
Second, where is the "mystery" suppose to feed the ball after it comes out? Right now, mine barely hits the left flipper on a good launch, and can just send it right down the middle...especially if timing is a bit off on my flip. If I try to dead bounce, it just drains. Is there an adjustment to this?
This game is brutal enough, I want to make sure I have everything adjusted I can.
[quoted image]

I believe the targets should be centered/aligned perfectly vertical. The target to the right of the death star shot was giving me grief when I got mine, leaning enough to make the already tight shot more difficult. They get knocked sideways just a bit and require adjustment and re-tightening periodically.

My mystery eject hits the right flipper, close enough to the end that it's not a gimme to catch or bounce over. But rarely manages to go SDTM on mine - should it really be hitting the LEFT flipper?? I may have to check the power settings and see if mine has been misadjusted by a previous owner to avoid SDTMs, or what...

Got the white wolf light baffle kit installed in my Pro - fairly easy install just a little finagling to get the mounting screws for the lightboards lined up with the baffles in place. Seems to work great. No light bleedover, nice and isolated for all the impacted inserts.

I've seen no phantom tilt issues in about 30-40 games over the last couple days, for reference on my Pro.
