  • Rocky and Bullwinkle reset

    My xbox live username is "Touchy 2 Muchy". I downloaded the update for Pinball FX 2 in the early morning hours of march 15th, probably around 4 AM. When I tried to play the game, all my scores were untouched, except for the Rocky and Bullwinkle table, in which I had a score of 30 million plus. I was reset to no high score, and since then I've gotten my score back to 7.5 million. It took me months of playing to achieve that high score, and was wondering if I could get it back. I own every table in pinball FX on xbox, and can't wait to buy more tables, I'm just worried about losing my high scores, because I put so much time into it.

    Hey there,

    The R&B leaderboard was the first one we've done in any of our games and hopefully the last. We did it because the table rules allowed fairly huge scores just for repeating a couple shots over and over...and over. Since we didn't want this imbalance to make R&B far more important than any other table (in terms of Superscore), and since we didn't want to encourage people to play in ways that aren't fun, we had to change the table rules and erase the scores.

    We should not have this problem going forward because our tuning and testing process is more rigorous now than it was when R&B was released.

      I can understand to delete the highscores of R&B. My best highscore was 4,6 billion. The superscore was not influenced by tables like extreme or buccanneer. Everyone only played R&B to reach high superscores. But Zen has forgotten to delete the gained points from the superscore board. My old score of 12797 still exists. Today I reached 1403M in Nightmare Mansion, but nothing was added to my superscore. So people who had a very high score by R&B in the past have a huge advantage.

      By the way zen has to catch an eye on the spiderman table. You only have to accomplish the games again and again. The multiplicator will be saved. So you can reach millions of points with the multiball. I get 21 M for every hit.

        I know I am in the minority here, but R&B was my favourite table. Not because I could rack up insane scores, but more for the theme (loved the cartoons as a kid). Since the update, R&B is now a very difficult table to keep the ball in play, with CAKE lasting only for a few seconds, and balls now more likely to go down the side drains. With games lasting only a few minutes now, it is hard for me to enjoy what I previously loved most about this table.

          Can anyone tell me what was being exploited to get the really high scores?

          I had 50 some million on it before the reset and had a hard time getting back there. Was it the Super Combo being done over and over again that got nerfed?
