Both are fantastic additions But can anyone explain why Black Knight is so difficult!! Unforgiving in a fun and frustrating way!!!! I guess I'm not skilled enough Doesn't seem to be any saved ball here and I'm quickly to my third ball before I even can settle in to play!! Any tips HELP!!
I made that account. I can log in just fine, but I get an error when I try to look at the Farsight leaderboards. If there's a limit on GC leader boards, I'd say they could fill them with the first twenty or so tables, or pick the most popular ones. Something is better than nothing.
I am happy, that Black Knight isnt as easy, as the other tables. On the real pinball tables, a beginner often couldn't play more than two minutes for a quater. There are two magma save buttons on the top of the screen. I dont no, why they are up there, but they may help you, to keep the ball in the game.
Black Knight is pretty awesome. Finally another table I want from this collection. Seriously, I think they should have just stopped making pinball tables after the early-mid eighties.
Am I missing something here? How is one supposed to quickly punch the magnasave on while in the midst of some fast moving gameplay on the iPad? Incan't clearly see how, for example, I can man my right flipper and hit that right magnasave anywhere close to the same time.
Awesome and seriously addictive!! Especially when in his computerized voice he challenges the player....sounds so menacing
I also cant understand, why they placed the magmasave buttons on the top. I hope they will bring us the buttons down in an update.It's impossble to push them right in time now.
I still don't understand the new highscore system. I see a strange Hall of fame list, with a strange scoring system, but can't see, where I can compare my real table highscores with others? Is this still only possible with this facebook shit?
Sloppy Update Another sloppy update. In previous versions, you could at least see where your score ranked on the global leader board. Now, you can't. You'd have to physically scroll the entire list until you find your ranking. Before, you could tap the lower-right button and it would cycle through filters. Now, nothing. And GC support? Barely. The Main menu will also need an overhaul at some point, as a future spent sliding through 40+ tables until I find the one I want to play is not a future I welcome. You guys make such a great game and I really appreciate what you're doing for pinball, but your interface, front-end and haphazard attempts at a leader board are comical for reasons that aren't funny.
Game Impressions Just being a fanboy here. I just made the jump from iPad 1G to 3G and, crap weasels, this game in particular looks and plays like a totally new beast (in a good way)!
Amen. I don't know who is in charge of making the interface decisions and coding the front-end (leader boards etc.) but this is getting ridiculous. What. The. Hell. Are. They. Smoking!? Pinball without a well thought out and fully working global leader boards is just plain silly. The Pro Pinball team got a well working global leader board system back in 1997!!! That's 15 years ago! Farsight... you are borderline schizophrenic in the way that you have the POTENTIAL of an almost sublime product but completely and utterly keep messing it all up on the very BASICS. Robust front end, well thought out scoring system and solid bug tracking team (which is obviously missing as there are still massive show stopping bugs in the game.. like the ball still going through the flippers in certain situations!) should be NUMBER 1 in priority before even starting a project of this magnitude. It is all backwards now.. Oh how I wish they could get their act together.
Maybe, but I'd think if playing in landscape it would be an easy stretch from my default thumb position.
Maybe they could eventually offer us some sorting by manufacturer or the real table's release date. Not only is the current batch of tables getting a bit unweariedly, I could easily imagine a situation where I really just want of focus my play on some early 70-80's tables or maybe just want to check out some of my favorite Bally tables.
I agree with this, having to flick to the next table is troublesome. A simple listing would be much preferable. Zen is far better in this regard. I really like both new tables. I bought the latest pack, thinking I would play Black Knight the most, but the Creature table is just a-m-a-z-i-n-g. I might even prefer it to Medieval Madness.
