I bought the game on Steam and so, yup, despite delisting, everything I paid for still works. This means it's a great game for my Steam Deck even. Full Pinball Arcade, on the go, gets great battery life due to it's age too!
I'm really glad that that works for you, however for myself, it's not a series of hoops I'm willing to go through. Quite simply, if FarSight is not only going to release SPA as a pile of garbage, at the same time turn TPA into garbage, and leave me needing to install SPA as some kind of hack...
So on Christmas Eve I was reinstalling Windows on my workstation after an SSD failed and I decided to reinstall The Pinball Arcade on Steam as well. I couldn't save changes in the settings program because I got an unhandled exception error. Want to know why? Because the program did not make a...
It's not a licensing thing, it's a marketing thing. If Stern is going to push out it's pinball tables to virtual space, especially ones that they still sell in the real world, they'll stand to make more money having a dedicated 'Stern Pinball Arcade' app that people can buy rather than saying...
Guys, if you want to believe something other than mobile being the highest priority and PC being the lowest priority, fine. But maybe you should ask yourselves why the game was pushed out on mobile two months before any other platform and why PC was pushed out six months AFTER all other...
A lot of people probably don't. They just want to get their pinball on while they commute to work or wait for friends or whatever else. If making a FarSight account offers nothing but leaderboards on mobile, you'll find a lot of people just won't bother. Even on PC, I only use my FarSight...
Your assumption there is that all users buy all the tables. Every month a new table comes out, the game makes a blip in gaming news, this also attracts entirely new players who won't necessarily buy every season or buy them in order of release. The game even has individual table/pairs of table...
Leaderboards seem like a slippery area to look at since leaderboards are more likely to be used by more involved players, and players who are more involved and hardcore would lean towards console or PC.
If you look at SteamSpy however, TPA has about 450 000 'users', which is people who have...
For TPA, the majority of the money is made on Android and iOS. Consoles and PC would be a secondary market in comparison to those larger markets. Certianly they all generate profit or one of them would be abandoned, but it still means that DX12 on PC would consume resources while likely having...
I feel like very few people here actually understand DX12. Firstly, DX12 is NOT a replacement for DX11, they are both going to operate concurrently, which is a first. They have different traits and that is why this will be the first time a version of DX isn't designed to replace the later...
In my case, the brightness seems to relate to performance. I don't work in the game industry but the visual effects industry where we render things a bit differently, but in my experience the brighter the light source, the greater the impact it has on rendering time since it can interact with...
I mostly used Champion Pub since it's right next in the list but the same also happened in Addams Family. I feel like ANY table other than CV being launched and then going to CV brings it's lights down and improves it's framerate. Basically, just don't launch the CV table first or it'll be...
If I look closer, I think that ALL of the lights on CV are brighter on first start vs starting another table and then going to CV. Looking closely does anyone else see anything like that?
