Poll:- Interest in mapping Flipper control to Face Buttons on PS3?

[iCub]

The FAQ currently states that it is possible to remap flipper control to LEFT crosspad and Circle. I am informed that this IS case on Vita but NOT currently an option on PS3, where we are limited to the shoulder buttons.

Personally I find using the shoulder buttons to be uncomfortable over long periods of play and would love the option of using the face buttons instead. Any combination of a direction on the crosspad and a button would be more comfortable. It would likely also be of benefit to those with smaller hands who may find it difficult to fully access the shoulder buttons. I remember back in the day, this was the control scheme for True Pinball on the PS1 and it worked rather well.

LEFT crosspad and Circle

or

RIGHT crosspad and Square

I was wondering if anyone else would appreciate this as an option....

How do you actually create a proper Poll thread on here?

OOps! I realised it is possible to actually create a vote thread on here from another post, but I am unsure how to go about doing it. Such a noob. Can anyone advise? Failing that then just leave any thoughts on the matter below with a thumbs up or down.

You can add a poll by clicking "thread tools" and then "add a poll to this thread." Either way, I will send your suggestions to the team

Thanks for the help BarbieBobomb; I followed your instructions so hopefully it has worked Also, thank you very much for passing my suggestion on to the developers. The level of community interaction from you folks at Zen Studios is really impressive and I'm sure builds strong customer loyalty. A lot of other developers could certainly learn from your example.

P.S. I saw on Twitter that an "AMAZING" new table is due out in a few weeks, but that it isn't Spiderman related..... Any hints??

Thanks! I see that the poll is up now... YAY!

Hmmm a hint... the table is crazy, awesome, and I am so proud of our team for constantly reinventing pinball with each new table. We'll be revealing soon, so you won't have to wait much longer to find out what it is

Lol, you guys are killing me with all these hints and "coming soon" news posts. I cannot wait to see what the team has done now!

Also, to stay on thread, I wouldn't mind a left arrow and circle configuration for flipper controls but I think I would still mostly use the shoulder buttons.

the poll is open for a few more days (I set it to 14 days I think)... but it seems to be showing a preference.

IMO more choice can only be a good thing.
