[QUOTE="SilverBalls, post: 3100, member: 340"] Speaking as a sofware developer myself who has worked in a small software house of less than 10 people and a large software consultancy of 100s of developers. *From my experience there is no amount of testing you can do to simulate 10 of thousands of users and bugs will pop up. *The advantage of a small dev team is they know the code so well and they can fix things much more quickly that a bloated dev team. Speaking as a pinball fanatic too with a 3-screen virtual setup input lag is a strict definite no-no. *In the virtual cabinet world we have learnt that all TV processing/interpolation needs to switched off with pinball. *A 100/120 hz TV must be switched to 50/60 hz mode (ie: game mode, just scan mode, etc). *Also personally a wireless controller defintely shouldn't not be used.* I know lettuce on the virtual forums and I know if he is experiencing input lag then it is there and it won't be due to his setup. Back to my first point - Farsight are a small team currently experiencing a lot of issues - maybe they have released too many platforms at once but we have all been eager for a taster. *However when you look at the complexity of their product and what they have achieved plus the high quality of their product these fixes are all relatively minor and can be redolved. * They have long term plans for this product and I amconfident they will solve these issues as they want us to buy future tables!* Although Farsight can't respond to every comment maybe they could maintain a public defect list (maybe in this forum) *of defects they plan to fix. *Eg: PS3 input lag, *etc. *That way we can rest assure a fix is on the way.
