[QUOTE="lio, post: 231296, member: 3222"] I tried it in 1920x1200 - not bad, at least as long as you are using a mouse (however I miss the mouse wheel to scroll through stuff!)... otherwise not nearly as good. Luckily no problems with loosing score or anything else when joining the beta for me. I noticed that the table icons appear stretched a little rather than square - probably a result of running at a 16:10 rather than 16:9 resolution. Personally I'd prefer to have somewhat small icons with it all shifted a bit to one side of the screen so you can display an image of the full machine next to it once you select a table (then the goals, score etc. for that table could be displayed on that side as well) - I always liked seeing the full machine body rather than just an icon in the old GUI - gave you a better impression of the game you are about to play. Also I see 5 rows of icons in my resolution (the 5th is not completely visible though but certainly enough to see which table goes with the icon) but can only select tables from the upper 4 rows and have to scroll down if I want anything below that. Currently you cannot immediately see if you still on normal or wizard goals when you select a table - you just see how many out of the 5 goals you have. The credits are missing in the "settings & options" screen. Friends list does not have a scroll bar / up down arrow next to it, you can only see more than the initial entries by selecting one and using cursor up/down. Table sorting is not kept - it reverts to alphabetical once you have played a table and exit it back to the menu. The table list jumps to the top again when you display goals for a selected table - very annoying. Font and icons still don't line up next to each other when displaying goals (again probably due to 16:10 rather than 16:9). Not being able to just hit enter after the end of a game and then another time to start the next game is really frustrating... I don't want to have to touch the mouse for that. edit: any reason the Pinball Arcade logo looks like something from Indiana Jones? You know, the hat and ice pick... [/QUOTE]
