[QUOTE="Crush3d_Turtle, post: 10569, member: 484"] Let me start this off by saying that I know this is how the real table is but frankly I find the scoring on this table to be broken by the billion point shot. At this point, all of my top highscores are above 1,000,000,000 which renders the rest of the table completely useless. Take the skill shot for instance; the highest multiplier I have got so far in a game is 20x. Even if I manage to hit the 200,000 slot on an extraordinary turn I will get 4,000,000 points which is 0.4% of the score required for me to even get close to the lowest possible score that can be on my highscore list. Or as another example if you get unlimited millions on the heartbeat ramp you would need to make that shot 1000 times which I think is quite absurd. Even the jackpot is completely useless since the highest I have even seen it is just over 3,000,000. So basically a table with a fantastic layout and great ruleset has been completely ruined by a single grossly over valued shot. This leads to the problem of the coming down to rinse and repeat paired with luck. I have gotten to the point where I can cycle any ball from the left flipper up the heart ramp and then up the shuttle ramp with the right flipper with about 90% consistency. But, even after I make several skilled shots and get both balls locked to spin the Big Wheel it all comes down to luck. I find that after I get to the 4 Billion score point the game simply does not want to deliver any more billion point shots.
