I'll take a swole knight playing thrash metal any day. This knight has been hitting the gym for 4 decades straight. FOUR DECADES. There's a reason he's the champ. If you want to take on a soft lad playing Kenny G, I'm sorry, but this just isn't the game for you, BK will break you.

I would consider waiting to buy my LE until playing it if you crackheads would stop snatching up all the games within 24 hours of them going on sale. The FOMO in pinball is unreal.

That being said, I put my deposit in on my LE yesterday, really looking forward to being let down!

Quoted from fosaisu:

Do HUO LEs sell above retail after launch much anymore? If you're OK waiting six months or so, seems relatively safe to wait and make sure you're satisfied before you pull the trigger.

Depends on the title, from my experience. If it's a desirable theme with a solid rep for (mostly) finished code, good shots, etc, that's a lot more likely. Also depends on the size of the LE run. In Canada, it doesn't seem like LE's go up for sale that often.

Excellent! I look forward to seeing this streamed by you ASAP.

Going to be around 5 weeks I've been told, can't wait!

Quoted from SkillShot:

Game looks like fun, but I can’t get over how dated those animations look.

I have no idea what you're talking about. For a pinball machine they look great.

#2336 5 years ago
Quoted from Crile1:

Wow, are people really willing to pay 5 to 9k for mediocrity?

Guess so lmao. I used to complain about the animations and then I realized all these games with crappy displays didn't stop me from enjoying those games immensely. They are taking a step in the right direction and I applaud them for that. Can't wait for my LE

Just a friendly reminder that it's fine to like things other people don't like, and that it's fine to disagree with the masses. Think for yourself.

I still want an upper pf and I'm still in on an LE. I watched the whole stream and I still want an LE more than a pro.

I think the animations look great. Even if I didn't, who cares, how much do you look at your display? You should be happy they at least show the scores at all times.

I think the sound is great. If I didn't, I could just change it in pinball browser (or more likely let one of you whiners do it because you would rather listen to Kenny G then metal). None of you deserve this game.

I also don't really care that the magna-save button is now in the center of the lockdown bar. Adjust your strategies you old farts, it's not bk2k and you can't play it like it is. Boo hoo. On top of that, installing another flipper button on the side and rewiring my center button to it is not that difficult of a project if I decide the center button being magna-save is as big of a nightmare as you all make it out to be. But I probably won't, I'll probably just accept it because it's not a big deal. First you complain about how you only need to use the right flipper, and then you say you won't have a hand free to use magna save. Make up your mind.

The code looks pretty damn good. More than any other step in the right direction, it's nice to see a game that looks like it's actually close to being finished right on release.

You're all whiners and you don't deserve a game this good. Go listen to showtunes and play WoZ, this game isn't for you.

Hurry up and stream the damn game!

Haha, as soon as it gets here I'll do an unbox, setup and gameplay stream. My expectation is next month sometime.

Quoted from drfrightner:

I like Iron Maiden as a pinball game but I HATE the theme so I’m not going to give it a 10 because I don’t like the theme... what part of that is hard for you to understand. Iron Maiden is NOT that popular band in the USA, they’re super popular in Europe, I don’t think they have ever had a hit top 40 song in the USA. Iron Maiden has a cult following much like Kiss doesn’t mean they’re everyone’s cup of tea. Iron Maiden is not Queen, Beatles, or anything in that league.
So I’m NOT a fan of the theme its not getting a 10 from me. I loved AC/DC and I love their music the game is fun, the LE looks amazing it gets a great rating from me. I’m not sure why you don’t understand everyone can have a difference of opinion.
I had an Iron Maiden and btw I own a pincade ... do you know which game got the LEAST amount of money? You guessed it IRON MAIDEN!
So I sold it. Terminator 2 made 4 times more money than a brand new Iron Maiden.
You know which games make the most games like Ghostbusters, Deadpool, Metallica but not Iron Maiden and I’m betting not Black Knight.
So let me be super clear, Black Knight PRO is okay, but the LE/Preimum just doesn’t warrant paying more than a PRO.
TONIGHT I looked at a Black Knight sitting right next to a LOTR... you have to ask yourself what happened? One game looks like its loaded to the gills with stuff, ramps, toys, and then you look over at BK and you ask yourself where’s the beef?
I’m mainly only saying Black Knight is a game you buy but ONLY the pro because anything more you’re getting ripped off.
Look at Munsters LE with that really cool looking lower play field, you look at it and say oh yeah that is why i’m Paying more. What do you get for paying an extra 4K for an LE? Basically NOTHING!

Why does everyone think the game has to appeal to them? Some people like metal, some people like classic rock, some people like rap, some people like country, some people like folk...some people like all of them. If you don't like the music in BKSOR, that's fine, but don't shit on it for those of us who have been waiting for a new pinball machine that is for metal fans. If you don't like the soundtrack, download pinball browser and load up the game with Kenny G.

Quoted from BMore-Pinball:

Unfortunately you're in the wrong place for that..... The internets
You need a thick skin to participate in any online forum

I have absolutely no problem taking peoples criticisms of games, but I do have a problem with people who can't seem to understand that personal preference does not equal fact. Lots of people like TAF, I think it's a boring overhyped game, but I'm not going to act like it's a universal truth that TAF is a boring overhyped game, it's just not my taste.

Regardless, I don't give a shit about anything, and it feels good to not care very much, and I just want more people to relax and stop stressing about pinball and just have fun. I know it's a pipe dream, but, be the change you want to see.

Quoted from BMore-Pinball:

so what you are saying is that you don't care but you do care?

I'd care about caring if it wasn't so much work to care, but for right now I'm just trying not to try to hard to care about caring, while still remaining optimistic that if I *were* to care, it would be good to care. Ya know?

I feel like it was a mistake lowering the mode difficulty to Easy. On the Prem/LE you can destroy modes on the upper playfield just smashing into the Light Lock switch (especially after adding in the new plastic/bump that knocks the ball right back to the flipper). I'm getting Knight spelled on pretty much every game (even the bad ones) as a result of this. Basically, with the default factory settings with this code you can almost guarantee you'll be getting an extra ball, spelling knight and progressing through at least a few modes on every game. It's just too easy now.

My second game on this code and I put up a 126 Mil game completing only like 3 or 4 modes (with a 7.5 deg slope and a relatively sensitive tilt). I'm probably going to be doing some menu diving just so I don't feel like I'm close to finishing the game every time I play.

That being said, most of the update is really great, and I'm excited to get to the new wizard mode.
