[QUOTE="phreaker47, post: 16421, member: 853"] Agreed about the camera shifts... although it's VERY helpful to turn off the multiball camera in the options, it would be nice to have the option to disable all the other zooms that occur. As for this bug... I had a similar one last night, and it ruined my chance to move up higher on the leaderboard. I had over 9.5 billion and it was my last ball. I was in multiball and something happened to one of the balls... it disappeared although I can't say for sure exactly how, whether it drained or got stuck or just somehow vanished. But the other ball was in the lock position below the face. The camera zoomed up there, and the game was just frozen right there. Finally, the self-ejecting feature kicked in, and it released the one locked ball, but the camera didn't pan back, so of course I quickly lost the ball because I couldn't see it. The game just hung like this forever. "Call Attendant" just said the ball was not frozen, so that wouldn't work. Finally after several minutes of this, I decided all I could try was to intentionally tilt the machine... but that also didn't help. It just sat there with "TILT" in the middle, and still would not reset from this state. "Call Attendant" continued to fail (I was trying it over and over out of desperation... I wanted to get this score up on the leaderboard). Crappy. And now I've learned that the PS3 version that I play has an inherent limitation where you can't register a score over 10 billion anyway. Very discouraging. I hope that can be patched. [/QUOTE]
