Extra Ball is lit on the Right ramp (the big spiral one). There’s an orange Extra Ball light located at the very top of the ramp to indicate it (the light is not on the playfield)
Is there a way this wording can be cleaned up to make it less confusing?

Well, I’ll be damned. Thanks!
Yeah that signage is basically invisible to me with how I look at a playfield. Took me a while to notice anything was even there.

It’s X rescues not rescue streak.
Super supply drop #5 is also an EB

I won’t spoil it, but at the start of Invalid Frenzy there’s sometimes a funny quote. Just a little easter egg I just discovered today.

So how does Raptors in the Kitchen work on the Pro if anyone has gotten that far? Because it doesn’t have the lock in the Raptor Pit like the Premium / LE does.
So… Invalid Frenzy is the best thing ever in any game. I kinda hope Escape Nublar is just 6-ball Invalid Frenzy.

What. You mean to tell me I can stop panic flipping and draining trying to make sure I get to a six streak for an EB? Glorious!
Whoa. I accidentally stacked raptor multiball and trex multiball tonight and it was super sweet!
Trex had one letter to go before feeding time and I had smart missile ready to fire with raptor multiball set as the award.
I clipped the truck ball to fully spell trex and then hit the amber target to start raptor.
I quickly hit the left ramp for raptor jackpot purposes and then the left inlane post held the ball and then began the trex feed pre-multiball animation. The ball on the inlane post became my only ball (perhaps the flippers went dead or my raptor balls just drained quickly; it all happened so fast that I’m not sure).
More balls came out, and it took me quite a long while to realize that I had both multiballs running at the same time. And when I did, I was very happy! Overlapping red and blue raptor arrows went purple and I got much larger totals than I’ve ever gotten for both on the newest code (trex 130M, and raptor 300M).
It’s a tough thing to start intentionally, but it’s quite a rush to play both multiballs at the same time. @dasmico was there at Free Gold Watch and he compared it to his 4-ball Trooper multiball trick discovery on IMDN.
I’m curious if it will work on the premium/LE models? Perhaps if the dinosaur head is programmed to go down to initiate the feed trex multiball start despite the fact raptor already started? And will this stack be “fixed” with code updates or left alone? I vote to keep it. It’s so cool!

Nope. Escher found that awhile ago. I thought it was cool too!

@sk8ball We had JP pro in a tournament a couple weeks ago. It seems like the winning strategy amongst all the players was basically just to start CHAOS and then they won. Of course not all players managed to get it and not all went actively for it, but still it seemed like the scoring for CHAOS multiball was somehwat too large compared to how easy it was to achieve it.
is the scoring for chaos MB planned to be adjusted somewhat to make other strategies more or just as lucrative?
Really? I just suck at chaos because I never find it scores that high. Chaos total: 8 million is pretty common for me …

The winning strategy was to hope you got Amber Slings.

Chaos is pretty worthless actually. I’m sure if you look at the high score tables everything else but invalid frenzy trumps it.

What code was it running?
The initial release Chaos was the way to go, but on more/most recent code I only use Chaos MB when trying for later Dinos.
So much in the game is worth more points AND more fun to play.
Chaos multiball being updated as we speak with stage 3. Stage 1 being made easier also.

Shoot my go to has been TREX in match play or finals. Getting to that second one is pretty lucrative. It’s the one you hit a shit then the truck and back and forth.
P.S. sent my check for my JP. Maybe I’ll finally learn this game once I get one in house.
Yeah was going to say, I ripped thru it today and only got 200 mill. Given the amount of jackpots that I got I thought it scored a bit low.
I noticed for “King of the Island”, on the most recent code, that it has a different intro if you capture both the T. Rex and the Spinosaurus before starting it. Does anything else change if this happens? If not I still thought it was a really nice touch.
Also, another minor bug you might want to fix - if Clear Paddock is selected off of the Smart Missile, it’s fired, and it’s successfully collected, you can hear the “shoot the Set Trap targets!” callout even though they were already completed for you.
