Quoted from iceman44:Eddy said plastic ramps were just basically cost cutters on the interview to get other stuff in there
Uh... what other stuff?
Quoted from iceman44:I don’t know. Maybe they consulted Rick and
Morty on this one?
It’s just pure magic
I feel like I missed something here. What does R&M have to do with the Stern BOM on this game?
Quoted from jimwe5t:Wrong why? Because your beloved old timer games say so? No one says they are not good designs, cause they are. It is only being very shallow and original themes that would not cut it into today’s market, that is why your continued assertions are plain silly and wrong. No manufacturers are going to take a chance on these type of titles today, because pure business acumen and sales logic wouldn’t allow them to do so. Just look at the poor sales of a fun playing game like Oktoberfest if you have a difficult time understanding this point. Sales have been very poor to say the least.
Nah man you just don’t get it. I was ten or eleven when MM first came out and never saw one in an arcade, so no nostalgia here. I started buying machines when I was 18 and I’m 33 now. I’ve had MM for over a decade and it’s still my favourite game, and I’ve had countless ‘deeper’ games come and go since then. MM / AFM aren’t shallow, they just don’t have the obscene complexity of some of the modern games - but they are still perfectly balanced games that everyone can enjoy regardless of playing ability. If you prefer machines with more complex rules then that’s fine, but don’t confuse lack of complexity with being shallow.
Edit: MM is also my most popular game with non pinhead friends, all of whom are of a similar age and also have no nostalgic feelings towards it. It’s accessible, easy to learn yet hard to master, and has the best toy in pinball. Even my wife loves the game and she hasn’t really cared for any of my other games apart from Tron LE.
Quoted from musketd:How can anybody judge this game on .64 code? Is the true question; it’s unfair to the design team that puts all their hard efforts into the game.
Because Stern released the game with .64 code - unfair to the design team perhaps, but that’s Sterns fault, not ours.
Quoted from DeadFlip:Haha I got it. I’ll have some record me recording and posting it directly.
Any chance of seeing it in action during gameplay?
Quoted from DeadFlip:An actual stream of it is coming soon with more content for the projector. One of the reasons I’m not streaming it at CES
Ok, sounds good. I'm just hoping the projector isn't the ecto-goggles 2.0 with the limited animations.
