Quoted from Yelobird:Sorry I would have to disagree with that not only playing both versions but also Owning both. I get it, they Way over engineered a crazy new mech that blew the BOM out of the water and I do agree the direction change they were forced to make worked out great but it does Not compare to the engineers original disk design. That in my opinion was engineering genius! The ball went every direction including up and always unpredictable. Brilliantly. Still turned out to be an incredible game but to say that feature design was not superior would be off.
I got quite a bit of time in on a proto with the three spinning discs and agree 100%. Losing the feature didn’t ruin the game, but the crazy ball movement from the three discs was great. I really wish they hadn’t had to cut it out.
