[QUOTE="Tann, post: 264048, member: 2327"] There are some exceptions that do not require PS+ subscription to play online: - Free-to-play games (basically, ZEN/Pinball FX is a F2P game) - Games with basic leaderboards - Games that already require a subscription fee (Elder Scrolls online) - Some very simple online game modes do not require PS+: > [I]Watchdogs you can still invade and be invaded without ps+ but you can't play the other MP modes and Destiny you can play the story and explore mode without it and only require plus for raids/strikes /pvp[/I] (quoted from gamefaqs) So, in case of Pinball FX, a very simple random matchup maybe do not require the PS+ subscription... Hard to find the info! This. My point of view: - With the free migration and upgrade to Pinball FX 3, I think to maybe purchase a second-hand PS4 (and for a few other cross-buy games I own on PS3). And it's possible I buy a few extra packs on PS3 to have them for free on PS4: [B]Zen Studios keeps a customer.[/B] - Pinball Arcade on PS3 is dead since the megapatch (April 2014). Since this date, there's only one update per year, and it simply adds the new tables (no bugfixes, no new features, no ball physics 3.0 on older tables!). Playing Pinball Arcade on PS3 is playing a 3 years-old broken version... :/ Migrate to PS4 requires to REBUY everything again: about 200 bucks for one game!!!! Well, no. So, I don't buy anything related to Pinball Arcade on PS3 because it is dead and I won't rebuy everything on PS4: [B]Farsight Studios loses a customer.[/B] [I]Quod Erat Demonstrandum.[/I] ^^ See above. The lighting improvement is top-notch, but yeah, the graphics models are the same (i.e. gorgeous in my opinion). Oh, I would like to see the difference when adjusting the lighting slider but couldn't find a video about that yet. [/QUOTE]
