We started a little challenge at work this week. What is the lowest score you can get when entering Battle Royal on Spiderman.
It is really hard to turn off habits like hero and web. There is an interesting risk reward between being in multiball vs accidentally hitting jackpots. I am actually finding it fun, and forces me to play very differently.
I swear I saw @timballs start it with like 70 million or something stupid low like that during PPO qualifying. @zEn was the one who pointed it out to me I think.
Alternative objectives on pinball games is not stupid at all. I often find some wachy stuff to go for. And have always played for progress rather than points, actually (coin play).
Having objectives that carry shots to avoid for periods of the task is indeed skillful play (ATM 1B hurry up to name one).
Yeah somewhere between 70m-80m in my match vs Werdrick. I used probably 2 Doc Ock MBs plus a Black Suit to work on pretty much just villains. Also with no gate on upper feed had to shoot venom from lower left ramp most of the time. I think it could certainly be lower, especially if you stay in single-ball play!
I usually keep the Vengeance timer on mine configured to the lowest allowed time (12 seconds?) to thwart this – it’s enough time to complete if you make the shots perfectly, but usually a single errant shot burns enough time to ruin it.
More cookies than objectives but I always go for Fluffy on BSD and try to make the cows moo on AFM. Both absolutely have to be done whenever possible. Don’t ask me why.
Used to only go for Springfield mystery spot on TSPP. It’s a reasonable goal with a nice payoff if you make it.
