New version update of Zen Pinball 2: v1.02

[twsh]

It seems in PS3 the "automatic" nudge has disappeared. But still missing a "Screen lock option" in Vita.

Odin's gift bug on Thor table has NOT been fixed.

Neither has the misspelling of Ymir as Yimir on the DMD after you select one of his missions.

I noticed the silver coin value on PvZ seems to have dropped. It used to be $250 (the operator's menu still says that) but now they only seem to yield $100. That does make it take a little longer before you can afford the 2x score upgrade. This seems appropriate now since you have to work for 2x scoring a little.

On the other hand, I think that maybe 2 shots per letter for You Have Mail Multiball would have been a better choice than 3 per letter. If it had been 3 per letter from the beginning I wouldn't be thinking twice about it, and I agree that it was definitely too easy to start up before, but now it seems like its gone too far in the other direction, especially when you consider the extra shots it takes to activate the ball saver now. Plus it seems very sensible to me if one shot made the letter flash and the next made it solid, and it took an even 10 shots to start the multiball. It used to be 6 and now 14 seems a bit drastic of a change I guess.

All in all I guess the updates did do a good job of eliminating what felt like endless multiballs on this table though.

PvZ leaderboard <i>hasn't</i> reset. I suppose you couldn't really, since everyone would be in uproar about it.

It has been done on Pinball Arcade under similar circumstances. An alternative would be to either change the font colour or put a marker next to scores achieved on v1.02. This way, old scores stand, but it allows players to make a fairer comparison.

Wow what a change for PVZ. I wanted to see what kind of change was done so I started a quick game. You don't start with your Kickbacks and it's much harder to get them IMO. You have to hit the orbits several times. I'm not sure how many times you are supposed to do it but it felt like a lot. Getting ball save is the same. You have to shoot the orbits a lot more than before the patch.

You've got Mail takes more shots to hit. I think you have to shoot the ramp 3-4 times in order to light a letter.

I couldn't tell if the fixed the multiplier from Jack-in-the-box quite yet.

PvZ leaderboard hasn't reset. I suppose you couldn't really, since everyone would be in uproar about it.

I don't think it will make a massive difference. You Have Mail doesn't score a huge amount of points. If anything, it means you can activate the main missions quicker and get to the wizard mode without always having to pause for You Have Mail all the time.

I am sure glad I got my score in before the changes!!!

yes i saw the same extra ball glitch on pvz , it was clearly lit and when i hit it i got nothing i think it may be the jack in the box reward , if its 10 orbits shots ifor extra during ball save i didn't light it like that ,
and if its 10 orbits shots for extra ball during save thats hard

Trophy card

Hey shogun, your sad sad trophy card is upsetting me... Not only are you missing images, but if you go to your profile, it actually has the wrong completion percentage for the game... Why don't you use the trophy card from my site, psntl.com.


shogun00's trophies

It's far more accurate, has much more information, up to you... Just thought I'd make you aware of it!

[Dorktron2000]

Looks like Extra Ball is glitched on Plants v Zombies now. It doesn't always register once you get one. Also, I can't tell a difference in the multipliers advancing but I still need to test this more.

[shogun00]

as for the kickback lights on blade i don't think they fixed that

Yep! It looks like they ignored that one. I just pretend that they are dead bulbs. It's pretty common to see in real machines.

[maink]

yea 3 nuges was fun it made the game more fluid , i think they just wanted to make it harder basically , but some tables still have 3 and street fighter has 5

as for the kickback lights on blade i don't think they fixed that

2 nudges

i am not impressed with the nudge changes at ALL one of the things i liked about zen2 the most was 3 nudges instead of 2, i have not seen one Not One complaint about 3 nudges why are you doing this zen

all other changes and patches are great don't get me wrong there but back to 2 nudges this is vary lame and was unaware that this was coming why

Edit: i do apologize if it sounds harsh but i keep seeing my favorite games Nerf things that make no sense to Nerf

[maink]

for the nudges you gotta wait 5 secs on certain table like tesla , moonknight i think it s 2 now wait about 7sec

for pvz 10 the table doesn't start with kickbacks anymore
10 orbit shos to activate one side same for save once you have 2 kickbacks
MAIL ramp now it 3 shots for each letter to activate so 14 total to start multiball , or you can get it instantly from the jack in the box which i think they fixed , but i haven't had time to test it fully

for fear itsef probably the avengers multiball bug if you have the neutral ball lit at the same

and im pretty sure de avengers bug yhat caused restarts

See! We do listen to you guys!

That's why you guys decided to ignore my suggestions?
