Quoted from Rarehero:

You can’t even explain why it would be fun or how it would even make sense. Pinball machines don’t need microphones and cams so you can talk to friends. Just do that with your phone. I’m poo-poo’ing it because it’s a stupid idea with no real world fun application. If you want to play online games with friends, play Mario Kart. Play Fortnite. Pinball is pinball. Playing “against” other people on different machines in other locations is just “wouldn’t it be cool if....” talk.

The major appeal of pinball is that it's analog and tactile. Online play is neither of those things. I'm with RH on this one.

Quoted from Coindork:

Ok, who wants to bet that if you put a webcam on newer pins so that you could play online against other players that within a week someone does it naked.
Pinball snap chat roulette anyone?

You're giving it a whole week? Haven't been on the internet much, huh?

Quoted from Aurich:

I would never actually leak shots of a game right before it was announced, that's crummy for all the people who worked hard on it. But I think everyone will be happy with the real photos, it's what you'd expect from Zombie Yeti, aka high quality, thoughtful work. I imagine they're coming soon.

Way to humblebrag that you have them already.

Quoted from chuckwurt:

So hit the sewer at the wrong time and you’re ball feeds the drain.

Casual players hate him because of this one simple trick!

I love how Kman is advertising for TPN. Real smooth.

Quoted from Rarehero:

I dunno, to me the 1up was all off key and weird. This one is pretty good, but the little insert voices like “we’re really hip” sound weird and British lol...but the song itself is pretty good.

There's some weird unnecessary processing on some of the part too like 'turtle power' has some kind of auto-tune vibrato on it or something strange.

Quoted from jawjaw:

I won't necessarily defend but not a big deal for me. My MET has two targets side by side that do the same thing. FH has three targets for hotdog and they all do the same thing. Those targets don't really make or break a game imo. Like it not, Stern has to make cuts somewhere otherwise everything is a premium+.

If there no rules that differentiate them, I don’t get the beef - but I’m sure the hate for them includes the desire for there to be rules that properly use individual targets. I’d expect non-skilled players like them, as well as ops (less to break; less to fix)

What I’m seeing in this thread is an obvious easy/cheap way stern could get more people to cough up for a premium or LE.

Quoted from PoMC:

Uh oh, there's a TV on one of the inserts.
<Mod makers furiously begin 3D printing miniature, old style, CRT televisions and placing 1.5" LCD screens in them to play cartoon episodes on a loop>

You act like these aren’t already readily available. Head on over to the marketplace page and ORDER NOW!

Quoted from zeldarioid:

Newbie here; saw a comment talking about something related to "add-ons" that were released for Stranger Things after the fact that players felt should've been included in the game(s) from the beginning, and thereby wondering if that will be the same situation with this new title. Can someone summarize what happened there?

UV reactive art baked in to the playfield. $300 add on UV lights to be able to see it.

Quoted from yancy:

Are you sure there's actually an 8-ball multiball? I wouldn't even want that. Anything over 4-5 is worse than just having 2 or 3. I think the extra balls are just for staging purposes. Not sure you can ever stack enough MBs to get all 8 in play at once.

Depending on pizza toppings you can get extra balls added in (lord I hope that sentence made sense) -- Jack started a 7 ball multiball on the stream at some point because he "had 2 gummy bears" whatever the heck that means.

But I agree with the "that's just too damn many" - it's a wow factor thing, but it's not useful.

Lol they locked the club thread.

Because there are no owners yet.
