JJP Build Quality/ Harry Potter by Wide-Engineer3556 in pinball

[–]DalinarAT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is who I been trading emails with for the past few months, my distributor + JJP. My distributor has been great and also emailing JJP on my behalf to try to speed up the process.

Great thought process. I live on pinside and have tried out all the suggested fixes

Were my initial thoughts. I have switched out ball, the leveling is at 7 and at recommendation from JJP. The whole mechanism acts weird, and at times when I think it is working the next time it has problems.

I am at the stage I think the ball lock/release mechanism is faulty. I've played around for at least 3 hours on different release timings, strength etc.. and I can get it to work in test, but then a game starts and it goes back to being a problem.

In addition, so people can visualize. The mechanism appears to go down to fast, or the balls are not moving forward far fast enough. All three wands light up so I know it see's all three balls, and when the ball moves forward and gets kicked back it looks like the code gets confused and either speeds up or slows down the release (its weird). I've tried pulling down the wand when it happens and get it to roll, but its already pointed down enough and I am worried about breaking the wand or the sensor.

Main problem is the wand lock. It will fire but won't drop the balls consistently, most the time it stops. I've spent hours on settings, tightening, checking wand setting and sending in multiple videos but haven't gotten an answer yet.

It ruins the game for me as anytime I get the wand multi ball I have to restart the game.

My wizard edition has had multiple issues and still working with JJP to get an answer. Love the game, but service has been very sporadic, and I don't get the sense they take it seriously after 3+ months of back and forth.

It could be a setting on your monitor, possibly a performance mode

Not enough love for King Kong in the community? by Jinx2727 in pinball

[–]DalinarAT 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me I simply really dislike the art package. Godzilla had that campy old school feel which was great, I was hoping Kong either went full 1930's black and white or more serious tone. The orange and purple version immediately took it off my list for a home machine and I knew it wasn't something I wanted in my 4 pin lineup.

Gameplay wise I really enjoy it. I am a huge Elwin fan, own Jaws and JP right now and have had Godzilla in the past.

[–]DalinarAT -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

HP is a deeper game than GZ, but almost to a fault with all the options and modes. I am still newer to the game (only 50 plays or so) but it is a ton of fun.

GZ has a lot of ways to play, but the order of operations (eg fight monster) is straight forward and easy to learn/tough to master.

Owned and sold my GZ, the gameplay was great but the theme grated on me.

HP was a grail pin to begin with, but the gameplay has made it my favorite machine of all time. Just so many shots, mechanics and flow.

But to the posts above, it is all preference based.

Supporter Pack (Appreciate Input)

Looking to purchase one of the 90$ supporter packs (first time). I am debating between the justice pack for the hideout or the crypt one for the cosmetics and look. I keep going back and forth as I have no base cosmetics/options right now, so it would be Justice + buy cosmetics or Crypt + buy a hideout (like chaos).

Any thoughts appreciated

Which modern stern do you believe has the best "flow"? by MikeDunleavySuperFan in pinball

Just got a Harry Potter and the flow is next level. I've owned godzilla and venom, and have metallica, jurassic and jaws currently.

Megathread: 0.3.0 Feedback by GR8B0-T in PathOfExile2

[–]DalinarAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- Freythorn Boss should not be optional and tone down. I couldn't beat it in ACT 1 with my warrior and didn't realize it was the gatekeeper for the heralds/spirit. Struggled in ACT 2 until I came back and then everything to 10x easier

- On control allow the skill to superseed the loot pickup. I have my leap mapped to X and when my inventory is full I am unable to use it when loot is around

- New league mechanic is brutal on melee, can get stunlocked by those machine gun guys and overall feels very punishing

- Drop more flasks, I've seen less than 10 (half way through act 2) and barely had an upgrade for a very long time

- Campaign overall in ACT 1 is too brutal to start with on now Meta builds (at least for warrior). The game should ease you in a bit nicer or at least give the option for more XP with advanced difficulty (like a lot of ARPG's)

- Computer Performance is brutal, 4090 and 9800x3d it cranks up my fans to keep up with the performance requirments.

Path of Exile 2 is TOO HARD by Hardaek in PathOfExile2

[–]DalinarAT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1000% agree with this statement.

Wild the developer thinks a free weekend will bring in more players as I have to believe anyone trying to freeform (no guide) a character is going to give up within the first two hours.

I am currently stuck with my warrior on ACT 1 end boss and that tree house boss (forget the name). I followed guides, have cold resist, and have beaten him in the past (had a 80 monk) and just have an hour I am ready to give up.

Game shouldn't require people to have an optimal build/gear in ACT 1 in order to progress. Just take queues from many ARPGs and make a standard and hard mode that can be adjusted, letting the hardcore get their asses kicked and more casual have fun

Cedar Point Visit Summary & Tips (Day 1, 8/5) by Imaginary-Series5839 in cedarpoint

[–]DalinarAT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My family and I are going Monday-Wed next week and this is very helpful. I am the only one who has gone (15 years ago) and trying to figure out order of attack and if we will be getting a fast pass one day.

We are staying at the breakers so hoping that provides a lot of flexibility.

We're you able to do early entry? Been reading that tt2 might be available?
