Official Avengers Table Thread

[Rafie]

@Rafie. All my achievements have registered on my game first time. Even the Avengers Cap DeathSave/ Bang Back popped first time too and I know others have had trouble with it...

Thank you! I'm just glad I'm not the only one experiencing this!

If you guys have any specific questions about the table I'd be glad to try and answer them. I started out scoring very low myself. I had a head start on everyone else, though. I looked at my stats page and roughly half of my games ranged from 1-40 million points. So I certainly didn't just start up the table and find everything to be easy. The way the scoring works you can literally make the same shot during a mission and have it vary from 1 million to 20 million points. It depends on which ball you are using and how high your mission bonus value is at the time. It's a confusing table to start with. Once you get the hang of it, I'm sure your scores will improve. Good luck!

Oh I know how to do a Death Save, just was confused as I didn't know what a Bangbuck was.

It would be awesome it someone films a short vid of themselves doing this, Just can't seem to get the timing down of when I nudge Up.

Sorry for the quality, recorded today at my summerhouse with a lousy camera, made 2 extra accounts just for you my love.

FWIW, I've never experience this when playing the PS3 version. It always goes through the gate each time.

I'm beginning to wonder if there's a glitch on the 360 version, that's causing this problem.

I'm playing the PS3 version and it happens about a third of the time for me. This design decision (or glitch, whatever it is) alone makes me hate this table. It's just ridiculous that you have to actively avoid the Black Widow ramp the whole time you're playing.

I got a quick question. Have either of you found that your achievements for the new tables are barely registering?

Well the bang back one is a special case. Someone confirmed that you must get the ball up to the slingshots for the game register it as a bang back. Just getting it up the flipper doesn't count.

I must be lucky then, because I hit that ramp over a 100 times and every time it went through the gate. The only time it didn't (just once) was when I nudged the table, when ti was half way through the gate.

Believe it or not, I didn't have trouble with that one at all. As a matter of fact, the bang back achievement is the only achievement that is showing for me on the new tables. The rest appear on my xbox when I go to the achievements, but the numbers don't add up and it won't show up anywhere else like mobile devices or even my computer. Oh yeah and I just got the Blitzkrieg cheevo too. I hate that stupid robot! It took me 7 tries. LOL It kept shooting the last million for me.

I got a quick question. Have either of you found that your achievements for the new tables are barely registering? Let me explain. I got both the WWH and Infinity Gauntlet cheevos fairly early before anyone on my friends list. This is was Wednesday morning. Now yesterday night I got the "bang back" cheevo for The Avengers and that one is the only one that shows. All I have left is the Fear Itself one, but the others aren't showing. I just wanted to know if I was the only one experiencing this.

I think it has something to do with the fact that the leaderboard was not active for the first day or so. The two achievements that I scored during that time (Hulk and Fear Itself) is showing in the game but did not register officially on Xbox live so at the moment it is showing that I have two less achievements than what I have actually achieved. I think you have to reload your profile (as was explained in one of the other threads) and then reachieve those achievements for them to register.

Sometimes the loki mischief targets (targets below the area where loki stands) can change, i think when you hit certain lanes. But at least with the hulk ball you can switch the loki mischief targets for his mission (duplicates, the moving green target) by hitting the hulk lane (the one on the farthest right). This is helpful if you haven't completed the duplicates mission and the mischief target is not the moving green one. All you do is hit the hulk ball up the hulk lane and the target will change. This allows you to use the correct hulk ball for his duplicates mission, thereby maximizing points for this mission.

I have not confirmed if this works with other loki mischeif targets. For example, i am not sure if you are trying to do the "repair the engines" mission, if the wrong targets are up will the correct ones pop up if you hit the ca ball up the ca ramp or the im ball up the im ramp.

****, i just realized this does work for all the balls. I am scanning the rule sheets as i type this. If you go to the rule sheet titled "character lanes" AND SCROLL ALL THE WAY DOWN, it says that shooting a character's lane will rotate loki mischief targets to the corresponding character's game mode. So use this to your advantage to maximize points.

I'm pretty convinced now that there is something seriously wrong with the Black widow ramp. I just had a great game and was one shot away from starting the Wizard mode again and adding at least another 300+ million to my score and the ball went down the left outlane for no particular reason... I really can't see what I am doing differently for it to go down the right lane.

Played through the wizard mode 2 times (and almost a 3d) and by the end of the game all the missions (with the right hero) was paying out handsomely. I'm quite sure that this table is going to end up with one humongously big score as the top score

Agreed, i am on the ps3 and have lost a few balls because of the ball catching on the gate instead of going cleanly through it.


How many times can you collect the ca 8 (9?)-hit combo extra ball? I was able to collect it once per game. Any idea about how else to get an extra ball?

Long time lurker, long time lover of this game.
Absolutely LOVING all the new tables. The wait was worth it.

Just had an awesome round on this table, and this is the FIRST time I broke the top 100 on the leader boards on any table in the game. I know this won't stand a chance in the long run, but I'm pretty damn hyped right now. Hell, I haven't even broke 1 billion on any table. Most of you guys here make me damn jealous with the scores you all put up.

BTW, that left outlane is my absolute nemesis on this board. God... so many drains down that side. Too annoying.

anyways.... I snapped a pic at the end of the round, was terribly annoyed since I only got 1 extra ball this round (missed my shot at the EB w/ captian america 2 or 3 times during the round) so this was only a 4 ball round for me. Hit the Wizard mode, but building up the jackpot throughout the round was just insane with the points at x11.

Keep up the excellent work Zen.

If anyone figures out how to stop the Black Widow ramp from randomally draining your ball, please let us know . Designers, this would be a great place for you to chime in, since everyone seems to find this very baffling.

Yea no kidding. I've noticed this problem too. Seems totally random. Hence why I called that left outlane my 'nemesis' because it seems totally random if the ball is going to kick to the left flipper, or flat out drain. *edit* with that said... at least making a 'death save' is EXTREMELY easy on this table.

This is bar none, the easiest table out of any table in the game to constantly make that sort of save. Done it numerous times in a row.

[lasvegaspinballhalloffame]

I pretty much figured out to just avoid the BW lane, unless you have a ball save, multi ball, or the actual BW ball. Very easy to activate ball save on this one too.
