Quoted from pinballaddicted:

I do not think Stern will mess the art up. People (Kaneda started the rumour) take the opportunity to put shit on Stern any chance they get.

I listen to Kaneda and he did not say that he heard the art is bad. I don’t know where you are getting that from.

Quoted from NPO:

Good thing I d/l'ed the video before Stern had it pulled....there are still videos up if you know where to look on YT. Besides....they'll make their "oooo ahhhh" official reveal prolly in the next couple of days....
[quoted image]

It’s still on Kaneda’s facebook page where it was first posted.

#1565 4 years ago

I wouldn’t describe GotG that way exactly. I love the rules for that but Star Trek is basically just different color arrows for different modes.

Quoted from cooked71:

[quoted image]

Yep, look like pinball machines. All except it will have completely different flow with orbits and returns.

Look Star Wars and ACDC have the same layout but play nothing alike...

#2210 4 years ago

Same game, layout is identical. No one buy Star Wars it is a retread.

Quoted from kermit24:

Nice photo. But the reality is that despite the visual similarities, these games shoot nothing like each other.

That’s my point, was my post not dripping with enough sarcasm?

#2216 4 years ago
Quoted from cooked71:

Sure. Guess I’m just bored - enjoying JP2 and Deadpool at the moment because they’re at least a little different.

Both great games, I’m glad you enjoy them. I own and love DP even though it has elements from Avengers, LotR, and JM. All great Gomez pins.

#2287 4 years ago
Quoted from TomGWI:

I find it interesting people think this game is special when the layout has been done a trillion times.

Pinball has a very limited amount of space on a playfield so if you want a game that feels good it might look similar. That doesn’t mean it plays the same.

Even Oktoberfest and JP2 have a similar shot layout. That doesn’t mean they are anything alike.

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

Comparing Stranger Things to Jurassic Park makes me question if both games had the same budget as JP seems to have more in it.

JP2 definitely has less assets with none from the movie. Stranger Things has all the likenesses and audio from the first two seasons and a lead from the show doing call outs.

None of that is free and it could be the price you pay.

Quoted from DG_Amuse:

My machine was exhibiting the Demogorgon shot issue that has been talked about here. I took some slow motion videos with my phone and it turned out the ball was coming in consistently low and then bouncing around. To fix this I placed some shims (a pop bumper fiber yolk broke in half) under each of the assembly’s feet. See pics for reference. This effectively steepened the ramp, which worked like a charm on my machine. I did have to relocate the ramp-down-position switch, because otherwise the ramp would stop about a 1/4” above the playfield surface. I hit four consecutive Demogorgon shots in row after the adjustment. Hope this helps someone if they’re experiencing similar issues. Cheers.[quoted image][quoted image]

Keep up the great work. I expected fixes like this were coming, especially when you see other people hit it every time.
