Whats the 2 other symbols on the Supply Drop Mini Game - I know one is Ball save doh I can't see whats the symbol for it. The other symbol and reward I have no clue.

I need to know the symbols of the other 2 and there rewards.

Gotta say: I do not miss the video modes. Would much rather play these mini-games instead of lamo video games!

Video modes have their place. I absolutely love the ones in SoTD. The "shell game" type video modes in Excalibur and Pasha are a little stale though. I do like mini play fields though. The Baxter Building mini-game in F4 is awesome. However, mini-games like defeating the guards in Pasha, the cellar game in Nightmare Mansion, and the mini-playfield in Excalibur get a bit tired too. *shrug* I like mini-games that give me a break from playing pinball for a few seconds. LOL

Here are the ones I've come across:

- man: awards you a Commando
- skull: starts Red Skull Multiball
- parachute: Extra Ball
- X: lights the Bonus Held sign
- square: starts Castle Zemo mini-game

3 more to go! Feel free to add to the list.

I also search for all the Howlers as quickly as possible as I feel you can make really good use of the different guys and can call in supply drops once you have all of them. So far it just haven't worked out nicely yet - I loose too many balls trying to get all of them

Same here. I'm having a lot of problems consistently hitting the Howler hole. In comparison, I can pretty much nail Captain's Hole (ooh aaah) on demand. There's just something about that Howler shot...

The other problem with going for Howlers early is that the ball loves to bounce off the targets and head in to the right outlane. So I try to build up my kickbacks first.

Mostly though, I'm using the super-generous Ball Save time to get shots on the Cosmic Cube. It's designed as a ball drainer, so might as well hit it while it's safe. If I'm quick enough I get can the first Sleeper Lock before the ball save expires.

I also encountered the Assault ramp glitch where you have to hit the castle ramp but the shots doesn't register even though there is a countdown.

I may have had the "Slows down countdowns" commando activated when I hit this bug, not sure.

Not for FX2, it will come out Wednesday morning at around 5 AM EST...

Don't know the time frame for PS3, but it comes out tomorrow for them.

and...

- bottle (?): 10 million points.

- first aid (?): temporary ball saver

1 more symbol to go! I'm betting it's Start Sleeper Multiball!

[Womble]

There can be only one, gentlemen. :-)

cough 382 million cough

Defeated the wizard mode on my first (real) ball. Almost made it to the next wizard mode too, but flubbed the next 2 balls badly. (Had x10 and Extra Ball and Bonus Held, and I still managed to fluff it.)

I suggest a new strategy, R2; let the Wookie win. i.e.

- get the Bucky ball saver at the start

- then get both Kickbacks

- then go only for the main missions (i.e. Captain's Hole and Mine Entrance Hole.)

- I never shoot for the other Howlers. If I accidentally start a Howlers mission, I let it time out. The reason for this is that I always want Bucky; he gives me a 30% chance of ball save on any drain. Priceless!

Thoughts?

Where is the table? I need to play this table

[UranusIsBroken]

Dammit. I thought Tuesday was the release day for Xbox Live content. ****.

LOL I would KILL for a new pinball table right now.

[ihearawitch]

Hell Yeah. I cant wait, sounds like my type of table. Last thing i needed was another iron man.

Tuesday IS the release for new XBL content. I got up at 5:45 this morning (I'm a dork I know) to fire up the xbox and grab this table and all I saw was the old content from the marketplace. About an hour later there were about 25 new items added to the marketplace but not the new Pinball FX2 table!!

Me = sad panda who is now at work

I got Ball Save from completing it but I don't know its symbol. Could be a First Aid sign not sure.

LOL Me too! I passed out at like...8 last night. I spent all day at the gym and was exhausted. I woke up this morning at like...4...and my face lit up like a kid on Christmas. Fired up the Box, and...nothing. Was definitely disappointed.

I don't know why you guys are having problems remembering the release date. It was announced a few weeks ago along with the trailer.

June 28th for PSN, June 29th for XBLA.

About 17 hours to go until it hits XBLA.
