JJP GNR Pinball

I guess the multiballs represent the pace of playing the songs, hitting multiple instruments during the song, makes total sense.
 
Just started watching the gameplay footage, he started a multi-ball 5 seconds after starting the game!

i bet you can make them harder to achieve in the game settings. but it does look like there are dozens of em!! [emoji23][emoji23]. i personally like them as i have plenty of machines with none or limited ones

This is a rock concert under glass ……… Best music pin out there and I’m not a GnR fan I just love the integration

Indeed, the concert is the theme and aim of the game and it seems like they've nailed it.

I love the noises it makes when you're trying to recruit the band. You have to hit the spinner to recruit Slash and it very much sounds like someone twanging the guitar whilst warming up. Small details but very nice.
 
Early reviews from those that have played it say it is multi-ball heavy.
Sounds great doesn’t it! Pretty sure I remember hearing Eric maybe Keith on the SDTM featurette that you can turn any mode/song into a multiball locking them on the Gibson head ball lock, up to 6 balls, if I remember that right it could be super cool especially if coded to add more risk/reward
 
Keith seemed super passionate about the game and the coding during the SDTM interview with him, he genuinely seemed excited to be showing off and talking about the game and code, I’m not even remotely a GnR fan but I’m considering picking up an LE next year.

The only problem with GnR is following it up! There’s no doubt having Slash involved and so keen for JJP to make this for him that he got them tonnes of stuff they wouldn’t have got (usual licensing headaches) how the hell do you top this on the next release if it’s Toy Story? I cant see Disney being as forthcoming with assets which is the very thing that has taken GnR to the next level.

I can see too many multi-balls becoming a bit tiresome after a while though. You should have to earn them and they should feel special.
 
Looks like a work of art.

Is it fun to play though? I played Maiden about 20times last night, and would've played it a 21st time if i wasn't going out... mostly fun (a few cheap drains) and definitely a one more time game.

Maiden is crazy good isn't it. I missed mine the minute it left.

Just watched as much of the Buffalo stream as possible. The game looks amazing aesthetically. Ridiculously good. It definitely came across multiball centric which may or may not be a good thing. I've heard Eric's Pirates is similar? I might buy a standard in the new year if the, quite rightly huge hype turns into lasting appeal for people.

Dunno, I really like multiballs, e.g. Stargate is lots of fun. But I get that they're not everyone's cup of tea.

That being said, GnR gives you the choice of whether you want to multiballise your song which is pretty cool.
 
The light show for live and let die is something to behold. I’m a real sucker for a well choreographed light show. Bravo.

They say there are 300 more LEDs on the CE how many of these are play field related and how many are just the topper etc ?

I believe there’s no extra LEDs on the CE playfield they are all related to the topper and cabinet lighting, I could be wrong but pretty sure that’s right, I’ve been reading and watching too much about this game.

It was posted yesterday that JJP are working with distributors to make sure only 1 CE per person to limit flippers buying multiple CEs, great move by JJP if true.
 
I’m personally avoiding streams, pinside is full of the Stern Army trying to pick faults through them. “Oh too many multiballs” doesn’t shoot as good as Wonka“ The problem is the ones trolling are the ones who have never seen or played in person and I think this has to be stood over and actually played to experiance what JJP have captured

As for multiballs one of our favourite pins here is Thobbit and both me and the little fella love the fact you have a constant stream of them which makes them fun not frustrating. He would often walk away From BM66 and rarely ever played it due to the fact the ball locks were stupid hard for him to get and most of the time me too.
Before anyone’s says the 2 ball chicken fest is an easy option that didn’t cut it either hence the reason Thobbit stays and BM66 is long gone.

I usually go a little flat after I purchase a NIB as the initial excitement of buying fades away but for the 1st time ever I’m still stoked and can’t wait to put it in adult mode crank this baby like Marty mcFlys Giutar amp and rock the neighbourhood “Quite literally”

Good luck trying to enforce that with Sales Law after the fact.
Some of the yarns on Pinside are just too funny.
What about the peeps who purchased for friends and family.

I think your right about the playfield LEDs - no more holes drilled.

Got to drive to Manchester in a min and not watched the Stream - does it show adult mode anywhere?

Age old problem not just with pinballs many sectors suffer right down to the latest must Have toy for kids at xmas. These fkers enjoy seeing kids suffer and revel in the fact they sold X number of them and made crazy money. Cluntz the lot of em.
 
What happened with Wonka. I haven't got to play one. I love the theme. Is the game crap?
Ive only played one once and really enjoyed it however like the theme implies it did seem a little sickly sweet. For anyone not having stood over one in person and played it it a beautiful thing IMO and as with all JJPs the light shows are to die for.
Its a one of these days pins for me and on the list

He puts it into adult mode after about an hour of play. I haven't watched that far yet but he says he's going to do that anyway. I'll be watching the stream tonight or tomorrow night.
 
People will complain about anything ..........

I want one but holding back for that elusive, unobtainable CE to pop up!

Edit: What's with the guitar hero noises and slot machine . lol...........
