Quoted from chuckwurt:

You will be pleased.

What do you know about it?
Also, anyone know if the external audio jack is ever going to happen?

Quoted from chuckwurt:

It will sit atop the game. Haha.

You're right, that will be pleasing

Quoted from Deaconblooze:

I joined the club Friday night! I've put about 80 plays on it since then. I'm having a lot of fun with this game! To give some perspective, I own IMVE, Avatar, and BSD - some of the best "one more game" games ever - and SW has me stabbing at the start button more than any of those others ever have.
I was genuinely worried when reviews started to pour in. I wasn't a big fan of GOT (though I didn't get a ton of time on it), and hearing that the rules were similar made me think I made a mistake in ordering. It's rare I ever have those types of doubts lifted so quickly. After a few games I realized that this was going to be a brutal game with a lot of strategy. The allure of lining up a huge bonus multiplier to a specific shot is stressful in a good way - it reminds me very much of Song Jackpot/Song Bonus in ACDC.
This is my first time buying a game NIB this early in development. So far it's been a positive experience. I like the clips, but I think they could be polished.. what I see often is a clip that plays, and then cuts in an awkward way. It will hang on to the last image for a few extra beats. I'm no director, but some sort of different fade or cut would probably look better, and a smoother sound transition would help to clean things up.
I'm having too much fun with the gameplay to really pick apart anything else. I think the modes will become more clear once code gets refined.

Congratulations. I felt the same way after opening and playing mine, I just keep thinking "one more..." It's got a WOW factor coming out of the box, but as you learn they game you just want to keep playing!!

Quoted from zaphX:

Has anyone fitted a shaker motor yet? How does it integrate, what things set it off?

I second the shaker motor, integrates with the gameplay perfect and adds to the effect of the game. I have one in my LE. I bought the Stern Licensed one to protect the warrantee.

Quoted from orb:

yes its happened 2 times to me. no idea what to do.

That was happening to me, but I read a thread earlier in here that said to adjust that coil to weak in settings. That solved the problem for me.

It might have been an actual number on the settings, can't remember, but it worked

BTW, another thing yo should do is move both posts in the outlanes in, and adjust your ball save time to 10 seconds, just trust me.

Quoted from jrockne:

The delivery of my pin has become very bittersweet... It is due to arrive on Tuesday. Sadly I got the call to schedule delivery while I was sitting in the Neuro ICU at the hospital. My dad who has helped me set up all my pins, and supported me in my lunacy, had a massive stroke Tuesday night. This will be the first time a game will arrive, where he will not be there to help. He is doing better every day, but has a very long road ahead of him. He is already shocking the doctors, but if you knew my dad that wouldn't surprise you. He has always been determined to prove people wrong.
Hopefully the moments I do get to play it I can just drift off to a galaxy far away, and forget about the reality of everything right now.
It brings things into perspective, this is just a hobby and there are so many more important things in our lives.
Keep your loved one close
Also:!!
I think my mom though I was crazy, But my dad didn't, and built the two arcade cabinets I have in my basement. Like I said he always supported my lunacy no matter how odd the request.

jrockne,
best wishes to you and your family. I hope your dad does well, I can relate to your situation. Hang in there and I know you'll enjoy your game.

By the way, that is a sweet arcade!! I'll post a picture of mine sometime

#1223 6 years ago

I added some mirror blades to my SWLE. I saw someone post a picture of them, and thought it looked great, and since I had some extras sitting around...
While doing so, I couldn't help but notice that on my LE there is hardware on both sides of the cabinet to support something like a blade, that really has no other purpose. I imagine if there were plans and they scratched them, they wouldn't have added that hardware, I wonder if something is still planned but not released yet? Maybe this has already been discussed?

Quoted from ChipScott:

Mirror blades and shaker motor installed!!
I hit so many dang asteroids on the video mode I thought the shaker motor was going to drill a hole in my floor with the cabinet leg!

I have that same set up on my LE (same translite, mirror blades, shaker). Looks awesome. Check out the X-wing mod at mezzlemods. Really cheap and sits perfect behind the tie fighter.
