    Went thru a game without doing Crazy Dave and, yes, I was able to get different ball types on the final boss (and beat Wizard Mode rather easily). It was, however, a bit disappointing since I wasn't able to beat my previous score. 520m (Had a second boss primed when I drained the last ball) but my previous best was 540m with using the gatling pea and various other Crazy Dave stuff. Reminds me of Nightmare Mansion where your best scoring bet is to just avoid the Missions/Wizard Mode.

I think it's triggered if you don't buy anything from Crazy Dave's (or whatever its called). The two times it happened to me, I didn't once shopped at his place/car.
    Ah, Okay. Thanks for clearing that up I still have to wonder if it is intentional or a glitch? Maybe a planned bump in difficulty for getting the Gatling Pea power-up for double scores? I think I will avoid Crazy Dave next time and see how it works out. Thanks for the info!

    I am just saying it has never happened to me, and I have had the Fireball "walk" right in from of the Plant spitting out the new ball and have had 3 or 4 balls in a row, always the same color (Fireball), hit and be evaporated by the Fireball. I could see a run of bad luck but I have NEVER had a different ball shoot out in all my games.

    I play on the Xbox 360 and I've had it work both ways. Sometimes it spits out the ball I need and sometimes it spits out the same ball I already had. I have no idea what causes it.

    I didn't hit the flowerpot once in the wizard mode and I still beat the wizard mode.

    Yeah, it happened to me to when I beat the wizard mode for the first time. It does shoot out both types.

I'm not sure what triggers it, but I'm not the only one that has experienced this (a few members backed up my claim) and I have experienced this more than once now. Perhaps it occurs if you don't buy anything from Crazy Dave's store, because that's when they occurred for me. Recently, I've been taking advantage of the double scoring and I've notice that the plant will no longer spit out the correct ball.

I always have to manually change type. I reached the final showdown at least a half dozen times, reaching the final shot twice only to fail. Found it rather annoying and fired up Fear Itself instead and broke 100m on it. So, all current tables have been conquered.

    P vs. Z is interesting! It seems the easiest to get 100m on but a challenge to break 1b. Top 4500 for 100m and Top 12 for 1b. Cool balance!

    Took a break from the new tables to make another run at Moon Knight and Beat the Wizard Mode and reached it a second time (draining on the "main" multiball part of the mode almost at once LOL).

    Jumping around from table to table on the new Avengers Chronicles pack but managed to break 100m on World War Hulk and Infinity Gauntlet and reached the Thanos Frenzy Mode of IG. Took me a bit to get everything to click on Infinity Gauntlet but now I must say it really is fun, gotta love the stackable multiball modes! Edit - Also Broke 100m on Avengers, the less said about that table the better.

    Well, I was having a horrible pinball day, missing all of my shots and blew a one billion(ball 1b) save on Epic Quest by not even breaking 1.3 billion, so I figured, screw it, I will play a table I don't even know the shots on so I won't feel bad missing them. I reached (and, of course, lost to) Loki on Thor and Broke 100m (151m). So, just in time for the new tables, I have at least 100m on every table.

    In an effort to see if SuperScore is indeed working correctly (which it seems to be), I played Ghost Rider and managed to break 100m (236m), so only Thor currently remains on my 100m list. Prolly go back to Epic Quest and try to reach level 100 before moving on to Thor.

    Thanks! Say what you will about tables like Spiderman or Epic Quest with a carry over "Leveling system" but they do give you that much sought after replay incentive. Without the knowledge that the Jackpots and Super Jackpots will be slowly increasing as I level up, I would be "done" with this table and have moved on. I was checking my number of plays on some of the other tables recently released (Paranormal, Sorcerers Lair, Ms. Spolsion) and I have less that 5 complete games of each but, I moved on from them because I hit my "goal" and received all of the Achievements. Yes, more than likely I will go back to them but it will be with another personal goal (Prolly try to break a Billion.)
