I wasn’t crazy about this pin the first few times I played it but decided to give it a chance in the home environment and picked up an LE this week. I completely changed my mind and am loving it. I think the lighting and noise level of where I previously played really took a lot away from the pin. This is the one game my wife is also having a blast playing, which is a big plus.

I have a little glass rattle that’s coming from the lower right side. It’s almost a buzzing sound. If I put pressure against it then it stops so I’m pretty sure that’s the source of the problem. Any ideas how to resolve? I turned the shaker down but it didn’t seem to help.

I picked up this game again pretty much as a cool jukebox because I don't much enjoy the actual gameplay. It does look and sound amazing though (with pinwoofer kit). I find guests hate it because it’s a music pin that many people don’t get to hear any music. They get the game beeping and booping around trying to qualify a song and have no idea what is going on, then the game ends. The experience isn't great.

I would love a mode option to just pick a song and play for points. Just one ball the whole time that gives you penalties for drains or something like that but let’s you experience the concert aspect without the annoying crap in the beginning. Keep the level progression from the game during the song since objectives are already coded. I would play that to chase song leaderboards way more than the actual game.

Quoted from allsportdvd:

You bought the game to use as a jukebox? Would just buying GNR’s greatest hits on cd for $10 be a better option if you hate the gameplay?

I mean it kind of feels like that at the moment. I love the band and I love pinball, so I wanted an experience that brings the two together. I don't love the build part of the game but I really enjoy the gameplay during songs. Not knocking anyone who loves it all as I wrote that I just personally don't enjoy it much and guests have not either. You can go love the game all you want and you are not wrong, everyone has their own opinions.

Main thing I was trying to get to is that I would have loved a mode to just play songs for leaderboards. Not saying get rid of the main game, just an alternate mode. Maybe a huge hurdle to code but I'm just throwing out what I would enjoy. This is just a pin I would like to have a drink and kind of vibe out with. I do enjoy deep games, I just don't love the code of this one. Wondering what all other people would want in a code update.
