2D games.....

#4502 4 years ago
Quoted from spfxted:

2D games.....

I was wondering this myself. Made me think of them using a virtual pinball setup. Would make sense then their claim that the ball wouldn’t dimple the Playfield.

#4503 4 years ago
Quoted from Sinistarrett:

I cant find any solid info about any games, all I hear is rumours, speculation, hearsay.

Im just going to quote myself from 8 months ago.

#4504 4 years ago

If it’s virtual I am out. I don’t like video games, I like pinball.

#4505 4 years ago
Quoted from Rondogg:

Sees pink penis ...

#4506 4 years ago

I couldn’t find the penis

Quoted from JoeinNJ:

A little quick history behind the JetStar Roller Coaster name that is used in RAZA. This was the roller coaster that hurricane Sandy took and dumped into the sea at Seaside Hieghts,NJ. I was able to name this back when I was involved in RAZA and it’s good to see they might kept the name. Hopefully they can do the coaster some justice now that it’s disassembled and long gone.
[quoted image]

Seaside Heights was among my favorite vacation spots with my family, as a kid. That destroyed rollercoaster is quite the metaphor for this preorder RAZA ride.

#4509 4 years ago
Quoted from spfxted:

2D games.....

It sounds as though, with all those animators on hand, they're looking to release a little phone game as well, perhaps? They gotta generate revenue somehow.....

P.S. Pinball once again proving not easy....

#4510 4 years ago
Quoted from spfxted:

2D games.....

Indeed last time I checked pinball is a 3D game. Taking pinball to the next dimension? ... how ironic Lol

#4511 4 years ago
Quoted from Sinistarrett:

Read TWIP.

There IS info. Not much but still about a third here are still speculating about things that were allready reported on.

#4512 4 years ago

I was hoping for a reason to not buy another Stern. Just ordered Jurassic LE yesterday. The horror of it all.

#4513 4 years ago
Quoted from cjmjmm2006:

Saw this today. Thoughts?[quoted image][quoted image]

Advanced Mecha Godzilla.

#4514 4 years ago

Is it true that Deeproot analyzed a Jurassic Park LE and Wonka LE and said they could make both for $200 out of cardboard?

Seriously though I hope we finally see a game at Expo.

#4515 4 years ago

Are these guys showing up in Huston?

#4516 4 years ago

Another day of no updates from deeproot. Their silence is NOT doing them ANY favors. C'mon DR - sack up and provide the community, ya know.... the ones who will be buying your machines some sort of update? Anything..... just anything (other than artwork photos).

#4517 4 years ago

Dunno, I thought pink penis update was a pretty good one.

#4518 4 years ago

I dont know how anybody could maintain confidence in this company.

That's cool to hear about your involvement with RAZA! Can you tell us any more about your time working on RAZA?

I'm no expert, but there might be a slight "mix-up" with Jet Star and the image you posted of the coaster in the ocean? According to rcdb.com, the coaster that fell into the ocean due to Hurricane Sandy (2012) was called "Star Jet" and was made by the E&F Miler company. However, "Jet Star" was a popular model of coaster made by Schwarzkopf with installations all over the world. Ironically, according to rcdb.com, there were Jet Stars that came and went on Morey's Piers, NJ (1993-1999) and Casino Pier, NJ (1970-2000) long before Sandy ever hit.

Something else I noticed: The Star Jet and all of the Jet Stars were steel coasters. The RAZA artwork with a "Jetstar coaster" seems to depict a wooden coaster instead.

Weird, wacky...stuff!

Common aspect ratio this time...

It would be great if they brought the new games to Pinball Expo, but understand wanting to reveal in their neck of tbe woods first.

Except deeproot isn't going to reveal in San Antonio,, instead I'll have to drive 4hrs....at least the Houston expo will be like a big job fair I suppose....

#4526 4 years ago
Quoted from CLEllison:

Another day of no updates from deeproot. Their silence is NOT doing them ANY favors.

Quoted from lpeters82:

I don't totally disagree. Perhaps what should have happened was for deeproot to reach out to zombie and applejuice right away. Negotiate deals with them in secret and then just start working on machines. Hire whoever they want, but don't announce or reply to anything...total radio silence. When machines are ready, make this huge splash by announcing to all Zidware customers that they can come and pick up their machines. The entire pinball world would have had a "WTF" moment. Zero drama, just a standing round of applause.

I stand by my statement from last year, the best thing they can do is to stay quiet until they have something real to show.

#4527 4 years ago

I saw 40 new post and I.......I thought something new was announced.....and.........and.......I........oh **** it.

People, DR is not making physical pinball, at least to start! Making 2d apps to satisfy jpoop buyers, at 9.99 apiece. Then who knows.

I don't know what the F* you're talking about. For those of us actually involved and watching Jpop twittle our money away on his Wordpress updates, nothing is going to satisfy until there is a machine to play.

There are plenty of RAZA cabinets waiting to be filled.

People here actually played RAZA and it is not an app.

If you have interrest in this visit TWIP.
If you just want to write BS visit Facebook.

That said of course they may do apps since they have multiple studios.

Thanks for proving my point. When will DR be producing a physical game again, now that they don't even have cabs now? If you don't think DR is above delivering a game, which satisfies the obligation as an app, well I'd send in even more pre-order money... Can you scan and post your entire contract, does it ever say pinball machine as we know it? Serious question.

I didn't give them any "pre-order" money... And have no plans to. Only pin machine shipping cost.

Exactly, Occums razer is all about the simplest solutions usually the end solution. Apps for th masses first, then maybe, just maybe pins in 3 years.

OMG troll elsewhere and get lost.

Jeff played the machines and described them. It's more focussed on mechs then usual.

Ok white wood, cost, designer, who's on software, music and video assets. You know, relevant information. Oh, there is a new pic of hybrid dinosaur! Yay.

Ok, so Nov 2019. Thats that's the announce date/release date for DRs first pin?

#4542 4 years ago
Quoted from Roostking:

Yes, it specifies "pinball game machines". I don't think there is much else that it is referring to other than machines "as we know it".
But what the hell... I've been wrong before. (that's why I'm here isn't it) Fly boy even thinks I'm stupid.

Relevant info will be announced no doubt in due time. So toss your broken record

You mean telling us all this in advance like every other manufacturer does... NOT AT ALL?

Adding to this a lot of that has allready been answered if you would just read TWIP and gather some info instead of trolling around.

Sorry you meant "MOMMY PLZ FEED ME NOW I'M TO DUMB AND LAZY TO USE THE SPOON!!!
IN ADDITION I HATE MY LIFE AND LIKE TO MAKE EVERYONE SUFFER AROUND ME!!!" with that?

You troll, I get moderated, I see it coming. Good job.

If you're really interrested (it does not seem that way) just read the last TWIP post on deeproot, as I MAY HAVE MENTIONED.

Quoted from DS_Nadine:

OH I could not resist using the metaphor.... it doesn't come up often. For any others who may flash back to RGP...

There IS no spoon.

Don't know what you're talking about but I got a hunch...

"No arms, no cookies!" as they say here...
(...wich is actually horrible, disgusting and discriminating.)

November can't get here soon enough!

Thanks for the info! Hoping for an awesome launch date!

BTW ya derp, here is DRs very own jpop showing off his whitewood. Irony.

When I see a run on this topic, I think: "OK" something good is coming down... At this point, nothing significant, it's like an emotional roller coaster: Up & Down.

I'm in at $4,750 and it's no secret (posted many times). I could have taken the $$$ offer, but choose not to. The option was get $$$ today (from offer 1 year ago), or ride it out.

I hope DR will come though and say "I told you so; look at the cool game(s) we have for you now", especially to those of use who stood tall from day one. I'm hoping that wasn't a short-sighted mistake on my part. I do hope DR will honor those of us, who feel he and their team, will come thru on such a toxic situation with JPop.

We will see.
