Playing on an IPad can't be beat, IMO.

Quoted from Wolfmarsh:The app has been mostly unplayable for me since the last update.
Bah
Is it speeding up and slowing down during gameplay? That's what mine has been doing.
Quoted from pezpunk:yeah right now the app is broken on ipad2 / ipad mini. the sim keeps speeding up and slowing down, making the ball jerk around. it's unplayable. FarSight is aware and says it has a fix ready for the next update.
Cool... Thanks.
Wish I would have checked before deleting and reinstalling the app..... I lost all of my scores.
Just played a few games of Whodunnit and I'm hooked! I might have to start looking for one of these.
Also, my name is Tony, so there's that.....
Quoted from swedishc:I met Norm from Farsight Studios at PAX East in Boston. He was SUCH a nice guy and obviously is passionate about pinball and working on the Pinball Arcade. They seem to have a really good team over there.
Yeah... I met him last year at CalEx. Couldn't have been a nicer guy.
Why do I have to download all of the other machines again whenever I get a new machine (on ios) ? I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong.
Quoted from RDReynolds:I thought High Roller Casino was basically unplayable. Seriously goes 2x faster than anything else on the app! Very weird.
And yes, POTO on here is no good.
Yeah, HRC, while a fun pin, is super speedy. It's one of the games that the ball sometimes speeds down the in lanes past the flipper before I can react.... Plus, mine has been crashing lately.
Quoted from Kineticross:The next table has been officially confirmed to be Party Zone on the Facebook page.
And to answer some questions:For some reason I am not having the same problems with HRC as you. The bumpers are a bit too aggressive but other than that I have no problems with the table besides it crashing when Roulette is lit.
I agree that Phantom is a pretty terrible table, and that people who don't play the game much can skip it. Not much to do compared to future tables like Starship Troopers or The Getaway.Me too! I'm excited to be able to play this table digitally, it looks awesome and packed with things to do.
Are you sure it's not Goin' Nuts?
Glad to see that I'm not the only one having issues with it crashing. Sure wish they would update it.
17 tables coming out on the 23rd for PS4 for 30 bucks!
Granted, they're the previously released games, but I'm still excited.
I guess I'm a rube because I really appreciate having Pinball Arcade for my PS4 and iOS. Yeah... The physics of some of the games could use a little tweaking, (the fast inlane drain, for one), but I really like being able to play these tables anytime I like.
Quoted from Kineticross:Cyclone is out on PC, Android, iOS, Mac, and Ouya today.
Also, the last four tables have been released for PS4 and Xbox One:
- Party Zone
- Earthshaker
- Starship Troopers
- Addams Family
Hmmm.... Still can't get Cyclone for iOS. Still shows Addams Family
Anyone know the deal with the latest PS4 releases? I got an email saying Season 6 was supposed to be released on the 7th but nothing has popped up. If you go to the PS4 store and type in "Pinball Arcade" you only get the Stern version, although individual PA machines are also listed.
Quoted from PismoArcade:Season 6 now available for download on PS4! 10 tables for $29.99
O.K.....This isn't good.
Tried to play Eight Ball Deluxe and Doctor Who. Both are unplayable on PS4. When the flipper hits the ball, it stops after going up a third of the table. It's like all of their tables have a magnet just above the flippers.
I swear...I want to support these guys, but Geez!
Update: All tables have the same problem. Meh.
O.K.... Now I'm 'bout to lose my mind.
All of my previously downloaded tables (I have them all) are experiencing the same effing problem since the download. WARNING: Don't download Season 6. It'll affect your other tables! Mine download automatically.
ARGHHHHH!
*alcohol may or may not have contributed to this rant.
So what the hell is going on with Pinball Arcade? I've been their biggest cheerleader, but it's getting harder to defend them. Bought Season 6 several weeks ago and I'm still waiting for two of the better pins to be released. Double charged for AC/DC. Still waiting for Ghostbusters.
In the meantime, i'm playing PinballFX on PSVR and am blown away by everything they're doing. Everyone that I strap the VR goggles on is sold the minute they play.
Step it up, Pinball Arcade. Not one comment on this thread in 2 months (by me) which speaks volumes.
Al's Garage Band World Tour and Cactus Jack are still not availabe for PS4
Quoted from Neal_W:What is missing?
I paid for Season 6 for PS4 over 3 months ago and Al's Garage band and Cactus Jack are still not up. No mention of Ps4 in last couple of newsletters....Have they abandoned the format?
Don't get me started on the whole "Ghostbusters coming soon" promise from last November.
So if dropping the ball on the last multi pack (never released two promised games) and Ghostbusters being a no show since it was announced over a year ago wasn't enough, now both TPA's won't load on my PS4 and they freeze at the loading screen. All my other games work fine. I own every TPA game and are unable to play any of them. I've gone from being their biggest supporter to wishing that Zen had the license for the tables.
Oh yeah....and they double charged me on AC/DC and never made it right.
Unbelievable.
Quoted from cocomonkeh:Ghostbusters is on PS4/Xbone now for the disc customers I guess.
Seriously? Nothing yet for those of us who downloaded the other Stern games.
I've asked this before but does anyone have any information regarding Farsight abandoning the PS4 format?
I realize they just (finally) released GB on Stern Pinball Arcade, but they have yet to release the final two pins from their last season, which was over a year and a half ago.
Quoted from bowz:If they're not gonna be allowed to sell anymore tables after June 30th, and if you buy them you can keep them forever, I'm guessing that if they've got anyone with any brains in the building, those prices will be slashed sooner to the date to make sure they don't leave any money on the table.
3. Will there be discounts on the tables before the contract expires? If not, why?
No, our agreement with WMS prohibits there being any sales on their tables before we have to take them off the market.
