How so? Do you have a software version that no one else has? Completing a hero doesn't do anything as far as making villains easier from what I have seen or read. Of course it should....but as of now, I don't believe it does.

I can see what you are saying. When I first played the game it felt very claustrophobic on the left side. I remounted the Wolverine over and it helped the gameplay a lot. That being said, it is still an incredibly poorly designed toy. I have him mounted as good as he is going to get. Out of the Beast lane a bit, his left elbow up so he doesn't catch balls on his ground off elbow stump, right claw down so he doesn't hit the Iceman ramp when it comes over. I also made sure he wasn't over so far that it made the Xavier shot harder and I've actually hit the left Nightcrawler from the left flipper a couple of time on the fly. I really dread the day when I have to reposition him for some reason.

After I got him remounted and played a bit the cramped feeling of the left side went away. The only time it becomes an issue for me is during multiball. In multiball all I seem to do is hit Wolverine and hit the posts on each side of the Iceman ramp. That's not really all I hit, but it feels like that a good bit of the time.

I also think that if someone would have the skills and means to license, design and make a thinner, nice looking, problem free Wolverine for this game they would sell at a 1 ratio for every game made. That is what Stern should have done instead of worrying about cutting the LE and Pro playfields differently so he mounts different and especially when they had to break out the grinder to grind the toy's elbow down. They screwed up, they know it...they didn't fix it. It's pretty much as simple as that.

So in summery, I like my X-Men. I am in hopes it will get even better with continued software updates, but I will also admit there were many mistakes on this game and if someone can't get past the big mistake that is the Wolverine toy....that is very understandable.

He said in 1.23 it was a chore. In 1.23 there was only Weapon X Multiball for Wolverine. Nothing has changed concerning Wolverine (Weapon X Multiball) from 1.23 and 1.24. He made it sound like in 1.23 there was no reason to beat Weapon X Multiball (it was a chore) and now (1.24) there is some added incentive to beat Weapon X Multiball that makes villains easier to beat (which it doesn't).

Even though the LE was released first...it is no secret that the Pro was finished first (and I'm guessing designed first).

Look at all of the early "official" X-Men pictures. They are of the Pros (with the LE differences Photoshopped in). They moved Wolverine FROM the Pro position TO the LE position and made a bad situation (cause by the poorly designed figure) even worse. I still can't figure out what they were trying to accomplish by moving it? His claw still got in the way of the ramp. Even in the original, Pro position, it wouldn't have hindered the spinning disc or Nightcrwalers.

The only fix that they did was grinding off the elbows and agreeing to send new figures to people that complained.

I understand what you are saying now. You mean since you can have a villain mode started and then start Weapon X multiball....that naturally helps you complete that villain (since it is a multiball and has the ball save).

I originally thought you were suggesting that beating Weapon X multiball on 1.24 somehow made Wolverine do more damage against villains after that (which it doesn't).
