    Williams' Collection Volume 5 impressions

    "We're nowhere near the FarSight rabbit hole yet” Perhaps not, but I remain baffled by a company that cannot get a game like this working reasonably well on a top-of-the-line iPad. Perhaps they were too ambitious. Who knows? But either the game’s not been tested, or I’ve for some reason got a...

    Williams' Collection Volume 5 impressions

    CV dire here on iPad Pro 11in. Resembles a game with frame skip of 2.

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    I suspect most casual users don't give a monkey's, hence the business model here. They have a ton of data and will balance everything according to that. The issue is whether or not Zen cares about the TPA audience or not. As I've said elsewhere, if they'd knock down the price of the unlocks so...

    Yeah, the free ticket pack is 150 on iOS, and actually gives you 150 tickets now (as opposed to 50). I remain dumfounded how anyone got these tables to four stars, unless the beta had radically different unlock speeds.

    Several weeks in, and I still haven't got Medieval Madness to level one, let alone any further. (AFM/JY are on 2. BP/FT/Getaway are close to 2.)

    iOS is only 25 coins for $1. Otherwise, the outlay is the same. (50 for $1 on Android seems odd – makes it cheaper to buy 3x50 than 150 in a single purchase. Then again, perhaps someone's messed up the numbers. The ad-based tickets thing was for ages only providing 50 rather than 150 tickets.)

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    Like others, I went through the app's contact form. It took five days, but I just got a reply. Sure enough, the offer is now there on opening the app. £19.99 in the UK for all of the tables (the "Legendary Collection"). The offer for me ends in three days, apparently.

    On the above, I’ve been communicating with Zen about the offer. They were surprised I couldn’t see it. Have others been emailing them about the problem? As for tickets, etc, I am still genuinely baffled that people managed to four-star every table. I’m still playing daily, and completing most...

    Nothing to do with the former – I didn't beta test. Might be the latter, I suppose, although I can't test that here.

    Just did a delete and reinstall on my iPhone. Made no difference. (UK, if that makes any odds.)

    Seems good value though. In sterling, that’d be under 20 quid, I imagine. (I don’t see the pop-up here, and so perhaps it’s only available in some territories, or is being slowly rolled out.)

    I’ve never written for Android Police, no. The majority of my Android coverage has been for Stuff and TechRadar.

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    The articles I write are round-ups rather than reviews. So although they are recommendations, they aren't rated. They are also very heavily restricted in terms of word count. On that basis, one will mention the unlock mechanism, and otherwise basically talk about the pinball. The other has a...

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    shutyertrap: On Zen's other apps, there is a very big difference in terms of pricing, unless things have markedly changed of late. Most of those have (had?) very cheap tables, and so as impulse purchases you can splash out a couple of bucks on something, and move on to the next if you're not...

    A new update just dropped, which should help with some of the frame-rate stuff.

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    I said "unfeasibly", in the sense of them being inconvenient. Perhaps you're playing significantly more hours than I am. I've been playing the game daily for a week. I have Attack From Mars on two stars, and four more tables on one star. (As for freemium games, I'm well versed in them. Google my...

    I find the lack of straightforwardness about costs a turn-off. So I'm assuming that unlocking a table for 250 purple coins will fully unlock it at level 4? But then, notably, 350 coins is the nearest available pack, for ten quid. So it's like when you top up a mobile and end up with wasted cash...

    I'm getting some pretty nasty frame-rate judder on iPad Pro (11in). Anyone else seeing this?

    New Mustang/ACDC/Startrek tables

    Ah, so it’s not just me, then. I’d have grabbed Star Trek tonight for a fiver or so. But I already have much of that pack and am not paying twice for the same content. Bizarre decision. They just had a bunch of tables wrenched from them. You think they’d want people buying more, not being put...

    Accidentally bought season 7 pack when I already own 7 of the 11 tables--HELP!

    Best bet is to use Apple's live chat. Tell them the purchase was made in error, and they may well refund you. (I've had something similar with an app with a terrible UI that suddenly sucked 80 bucks from my account because someone's thumb was accidentally on the Touch ID sensor. Apple's rep was...
