Well, that’s one way to combat the F-15 exploit, disable the jet bumpers!
Yeah, that’s actually kind of a funny thing. I spent a lot of time after the fact getting them more active after watching this video. Didn’t realize while recording they needed rebuilt.
What’s the F-15 exploit?
Milking the bumpers for hurry-up or?
Yup, that’s pretty much it. Left loop -> bumpers -> side loop as much as you can -> back to bottom. Eventually the hurryup value grows astronomical.
At Pinball Expo 96 (?) this was the tournament game and multiball was set to nearly-impossible difficulty. So, the entire tournament became Left Loop All Day. Pinball action at its most exciting.
Haha, can just imagine that =)
