Quoted from Joey_Bada_Bing:To Those of you with this pin at home, do you have the replay/extra ball turned off so it’s just the extra Balls at reactor 3 and 6?
Yes - I have it just at 3 and 6 reactors, no replay/EB score related.
Also just thought I'd say Hi from over the pond.
I bought TNA from another UK pinball owner in March of this year - my first pin, and it's been brilliant.
I also do not get tired of it, and play most days - the audit says I've played just over 2000 games since getting it.
This thread is also really useful, and it's great that Scott both responds to posts and continues to improve/develop the game.
As a first time pinball owner (used to play at college 30 years ago), I've enjoyed both playing and the maintenance - cleaning, replaced all the rubbers with Titan glow, added an led strip to the rear of the backbox and under the cabinet so it glows purple, and had a couple of wires come adrift from the flippers, so have brushed up on my soldering too.
Currently considering the illuminated drop targets mod, and trying to decide on the best strategy for potentially getting a really high score.
I have only one comment really regarding what is displayed on the screen, and that is that I find I do not have a lot of time to look at the screen during gameplay as there's too much going on, so if it's not already maxed, I find it hard to keep an eye on the reactor value. About the only time when there is a chance to get a glance at the screen is when you lock a ball. There's then a second or so to glance up at it before launching the next ball (beating the auto plunger). Unfortunately, at that moment, the screen no longer displays the reactor value, as it is going through the "ball locked" display sequence. It would be good if the reactor value was still visible at this point. Just a suggestion!
Anyway, cheers for such a great game, and mine is going nowhere - especially as I have since bought a second pin (BK3LE) in the house, and have permission from my wife to add 2 or 3 more to a cabin we are putting together in the garden!
