Quoted from iceman44:I haven't heard a peep regarding this issue.
Not Lyman, not a F ing chance in hell I would even consider this pin. EVER
Can't wait to see the LE price with the Hulk Hogan signature
Stern has got to come up with another gimmick to suck $$$ out of the dummies like myself to pay those ridiculous, outrageous, over the top prices for what you get.
Count me out, but let the HYPE train roll down the tracks!
Quoted from iceman44:On the "lead", well they better get it F ing together going forward and at least have a playable pin like TWD from the get go.
If WWE turns out to be a Cluster F like so many others then let the BOOS reign down from the rafters!
They want to charge more and more $$$ for less, I don't see it, and more people are figuring it out.
Enough already! I'm getting really tired of seeing these types of posts. I REALLY am. You sound like a broken record. Yes we get it, you hate unfinished code on games. Guess what? We all do. But Stern is a business and their decisions are not all always going to be in our (the collectors) best interest.
If you disagree with the way Stern does business, you should call them and voice your concerns. Or, if you really feel the need to complain in public, start a thread on Pinside and address the company and what you think they are doing wrong. Or ultimately, you can also vote with your wallet and buy a game from another manufacturer. It's a free country.
But please stop being so negative. Please stop attacking the people working on these games and pretty please stop making things so personal. Just because you know the programmers names doesn't mean you need to address them by it in every single post.
Let me give you my perspective: Having talked to some of these guys during my visit to Chicago in October, I can tell you that they are all extremely passionate about what they do. And they work pretty friggin' hard to make the games as awesome as possible with the time they're given. I also know some of these guys occasionally read Pinside, so I am personally ashamed to see some of the stuff people write about them here. Would you find it stimulating to read posts bashing your work on a daily basis?
Let's make 2015 a year of actually contributing in a positive manner to try and get things improved. If you want to help out and contribute to pinball and to this community, open a bugs thread for any specific game. Or open an ideas thread. I'm pretty sure these thread are being read by the Stern team and that they help them improve our games and code. That's what Pinside should be about.
Sorry if I sound upset, frankly I am. I don't think the Stern people (nor any of the guys working in pinball, also at other companies) deserve the crap they get from some people on here for things that are mostly out of their control.
