Season 5

[FlippyFloppy]

Now we're nearly into September. If I only had the interest on the money that I paid up front. :/

It's been going back and forth between QA and the Programmers. It's still being worked on. Sorry about the wait.

I think as long as we have waited for an update we should get some s6 tables also ..I want Dr who in this update otherwise us xbox one console players will have to wait another year for the next batch of tables ..Because i do think Dr. Who is the next table PLEASE ADD THIS TO THE NEXT UPDATE

I never purchased it on XBONE because they never fixed the X360 one. I can't justify dropping the cash on yet another platform. The delays are insane, regardless of who is responsible. I'd much rather play it on my 55" than my 24" PC but that's just the way it has to be.

It is what it is. I'm sure sales of TPA have slowed down on the XBONE, and they are probably going to wait until Decemberish before giving us the rest of season 5 while they release half of season 6. One update to accomplish two things. Then we'll have to wait for another year for the other half of 6.

I think this version of TPA is the best. There is a slight delay in flipper reaction on iOS and PC for me. While the XBONE version is perfect. I will keep supporting this version as much as they keep releasing content for it.

HDMI is a wonderful thing.
TPA will run fine on a modern laptop as well.

I think in this century everything works with HDMI:
PC, laptops, consoles, tablets and smartphones, so what is your sentence for

He was complaining about being stuck on his 24" computer monitor and not being able to play on his 55" screen.

One cable = solution.

CycOd3liC is right and that has nothing to do with the cable. Adults don't have the PC in the livingroom where's the big TV (just nerds)
and the PC somewhere else. And no one will carry around his PC or huge TV. Therefore exist consoles and monitors.
Or a 50 meter HDMI cable to the second floor ?

Well, in ideal living arrangements you would be absolutely right. I've also done the SteamLink method and it works pretty well, but it's just not as convenient.

It's good enough, just not ideal.

You must not spend much time with adults. I know plenty who have a pc in their livingroom. Considering that most laptops nowadays can play TPA with dx11 with a smooth framerate, it's not a huge reach to think a computer could be within reach of a television.

I used to do this with my old Lenovo laptop with DX9. TPA looked very sharp when connected to my 47" Vizio. My issue was the serious controller lag. Ever since I got my GTX 950 for my desktop, I've had my computer hooked up to the TV and TPA looks and plays perfectly with DX11. If one's graphics card has an HDMI port, all you have to do is spend $10 for a cable and you're good to go.

I'm not sure if the controller lag is related to laptops in general, or if it's just mine. It probably is just my laptop, as it is fairly old.

While I wish TPA had better console support (for the good people who still prefer console gaming), I have no major complaints with TPA on Steam. Not only do I get the most current tables for TPA, but I can also play Zaccaria and PP Timeshock Ultra-the last two are not available on any console, save for mobile. And of course Zen, which is available on every platform.

Steam's sales are the way to go too.

Ok for starters, I wasn't addressing you, I was addressing the person who said flat out that they had steam.

Second, yes by telling me to blank underline blank underline, you clearly validated the use of quotes around the term 'adult'.

I was also responding to someone's sackless, backhanded attempt at an insult.

By the way, do you have some strange, non-existant version of windows that asks after installation if you intend to use the pc for work or play, and then disallows any software that doesn't fit the usage profile?

I get that some things are a better fit for a console. As a longtime Xbox 360 user I understand delays, but moved on when a better option presented itself.

I am going to go out on a limb and state that most people do not have a PC in their living room. Yes, I have had a PC in my living room before and once I got Steam Link, it was back into the office. Now I have moved and in-between homes right now and there's no room for it. Steam Link over wireless just doesn't cut it in my current situation. I am disappointed that I dropped a ton of money on the 360 version which hasn't been updated in forever (and still broken mind you) and I'm not about to waste money on the XBONE version which is also way behind. As much as I don't care for the ZEN tables, at least they made them port over to the XBONE where I didn't have to buy them again. I have literally bought every season for IOS, ANDROID, STEAM and XBOX360. I'm not willing to drop dough on another platform after the bad taste in my mouth on the XBOX side of things.

Steam is my platform of choice and once I get back into "normal" mode, life will be good again.

I also have a capable laptop that I can hook into my 55" TV, so thanks for reminding me. At the same time, space, as usual, is limited.
