Quoted from T7:

It's frustrating to read so many posts on such an EASY FIX!

Exactly, if you have the game at home then its very simple to set it up and have it play perfectly with zero issues so if the problem is that on site games really are not that great who cares, poorly set up, usually the volume is low and its noisy all around you, brightly lit room etc. all this detracts from the real experience of playing pinball for me, most owners will tell you that they don't experience these issues.

Quoted from ryanwanger:

Thank you for not listing out all 24 machines that are less fun. But, I need you and the 8 people who thumbs upped you to tell us which single remaining top 25 pin is more fun than TWD? I MUST KNOW!

Zero, but LOTR's, STLE and Met LE/Pre are pretty close.

Quoted from BMore-Pinball:

I find that most pins on location suck.

Yes Sir, if you are judging pinball by the on location games.

Quoted from markmon:

It's not just the pop drains but also the amount of time the ball is in the pops. Left orbit to pops is a massive flow killer. The pop bumpers ruined the game for me and I sold mine after only 6 weeks of ownership due to the pop bumpers.

That was foolish, disable the far right pop and by applying some felt to the orbit lane guide on the right side there is a super fast direct shot back to the left flipper plus the pops are no longer an issue with regards to time spent, I hope there was more reason for you selling this great game than that.

Quoted from markmon:

This is not a solution. I played with these types of fixes and the ball bounces and hits the left most pop. I did get it to consistently come to the left flipper on a right orbit shot but it still was no a solution to every plunge ending in the pops. The pops just ruined the game for me.

Well it worked very well for me, and the pops are required during the multiballs to lighten the load but not every game can be for everyone. It really is a special pin, and my current favorite, the theme and gameplay, SFX and music just are top notch.

Quoted from cleland:

I put a small piece of felt on the right orbit and the ball always makes a clean shot back to the left flipper, every single time....never gets caught up in the pops. A simple fix (for mine anyway) that improved the flow of the game for me. I'm loving mine!

I did this and its a game changer, what a shame that some folks didn't give it time and apply the easy fixes that solve any gameplay issues but its still in its infancy and I think even though already loved by many that it shall become a classic must have pinball machine.

Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:

Anyway, TWD sounds ALOT like Avengers to me

Put down the crack pipe sir. That comparison is a joke.

Just played Siege this evening! Very nice mode

My favorite mode in pinball period, the music and SFX are incredible.

Quoted from Jeekayjay:

The drain monster gameplay is no fun, nothing interesting to shoot at, well walker is ugly and the stock lighting is totally wrong. Pretty ugly cab too

What? nothing but interesting things to shoot at, its Zombies. The LE cab is awesome but even if it wasn't who cares really, and the ugly WWalker is easily fixed if you wanted to. This game cannot be judged by an on site pro. I hope you get to play a nice LE one day.
