[QUOTE="tcvpin, post: 43183, member: 1606"] Definitely noticed it was slower when I played the free version but it seemed to get faster after I bought the table. This is actually something I find a little frustrating and/or mystical about virtual tables. I understand nothing about trying to program real world ball physics. With a physical table, there are only so many things you can adjust to increase ball speed and those things can be measured. For instance, can't an operator raise the back of the table a bit? That would be measurable. But programming pinball is a big black box. What's going on under the hood? No clue. Maybe the ball is slower in the free version. Maybe it's faster in the pay version. I've no clue and even if Farsight were to explain what they're doing, I couldn't independently verify anything so I'd have to take their word for it to some degree. In the perfect program, I suppose, you'd be able to control the ball all the time, meaning Farsight can make the ball do whatever it wants whenever it wants. Yes, I am approaching paranoia. Farsight killed Kennedy!!!! [/QUOTE]
