I've played a TWD LE last night at my friends house.
He told me that it is imopossible to make the tunnel shot with the crossbow.
Some other shots are also very difficult.
Is that true? that would be stupid...
The tunnel is the only one I'd consider very difficult or difficult at all, so I just don't bother with it, but it's not "impossible" (though I'm not certain I've ever seen a clean shot through it either). I can make all of the other shots the vast majority of the time and they are all drastically easier to make. Generally it's easier to make every shot when the crossbow is on its way back to the left (at least for me on my machine).
Tower is easier off the walker bank shot. Believe it or not you can practice that and get very good at banking off walker from left flipper and crossbow. Tunnel is possible also just very hard much like it's very hard off flippers
The tunnel shot is the hardest. What makes it so difficult is the speed of the crossbow motor. Since the crossbow is moving left-right so quickly it adds a slight "curve" to the ball trajectory, and the tunnel shot works best with a very straight trajectory.
Here are the best times to shoot the shots - while the crossbow is moving to the Right or Left (left is the return)...
- tunnel - right
- right ramp - right
- riot - left
- BG ramp - left
- barn - left
Quoted from markmon:Tower is easier off the walker bank shot. Believe it or not you can practice that and get very good at banking off walker from left flipper and crossbow. Tunnel is possible also just very hard much like it's very hard off flippers
Should have thought of that since i get a lot of that from straight up well walker hits..
