Hi Crow, I subscribed for evercade, but I watched this for your thumbnail. Good review, i think I will check some other pinball reviews you in the future. My kids like pinball and I may get pinball fx in the future. Thanks again!!

The drain coming out of the bumpers area is borderline criminal. Just horrible design. A drain down the middle should NEVER happen directly from off a plunge. In this game, the plunge takes you down into the bumpers, right to the exit ramp and often right down the middle. Awful, awful design. PS - i think that Multiball you got @9:32 was from that top Ball Lock, and you only need to Lock 2, cause it's a 2-ball MB.

agree, it happens too often in many tables. they really need to fix the physics, this kind of gutter seeking ball physics is not fun.

Got to play this table in the Events and now understand the rules of this much better. I still prefer not to watch this series at all, but heck, I enjoy this table much more than how it was at launch.

Hi crow! Good review, good job as usual. My opinion: this table is a failure. There are a lot of good ideas but nothing works. The missions: we don't understand anything, or where to aim. I havent manage to win the first one, after many restarts. It's a shame there wasn't a second opinion to help this new designer. His first table (Godzilla) was not easy to understand, but here, it's just unreadable. Frustrating.

As far as I can see, this is not possible in the settings option for the version from Steam... perhaps it is possible for Xbox, Nintendo Switch or Playstation. I've already reported the problem to Zen Pinball. I received an email back from Gary Vadoxz a few days ago. They are still working on solving the problems. In the meantime, I notice that I play the games much worse than in Android. Often within 1.5 minutes I have used up the 3 balls in FX. While in Android I often manage to last longer than 1 hour. So even though the flippers now respond a little better, there is still a lot that is not right. It is not true that the ball regularly finds the middle between the 2 flippers and also the side exit while the side bumpers above the flippers start to bump while the ball only rolls along. They should only bump when the ball hits them. Zen Pinball has beautiful Pinball games when it comes to the design, but unfortunately the adjustment is a lot worse than, for example, their Zaccaria Pinball counterpart.

Hey I'm Steve aka WRATHBABY,been a subscriber for years to your channel. Give Discovery table a chance , it's just a more difficult design.To start mission modes you have to just spin the ball around top circle 2x with the upper left flipper then hit the red dot in front of flipper.I watched you play this in your video.After mission starts its just a matter of getting use to your angled shots around the table.I will agree the shot angles are weird and awkward. With that being said that's what gives this table a real challenge, it's nice to have a table in the collection that pushes the skill level in learning the table?I enjoy your videos and wish you a great holiday

Also re: Klingon War, what I like to do at the very start is just keep holding up the mini-flipper so that when the kicker starts flashing, I can get credit for shots there. I also shoot for the center ramp when it’s available. Otherwise, not worth it.

I'll probably get back to it, but that's my initial impression on playing it long enough to get all the collectibles (minus the table achievement on).

I think the worst thing about this table is the dmd, it doesn't give you a chance to read it , which makes it hard to know whats happening , luckily the other two are pretty good.

As far as the series, it sounds like the table is as bad as the show, so you’re not missing out on anything. Thanks for the video, Crow.

Hi Crow, Too bad it's not really playable like this. You have quite a bit of experience with pinball yourself. Me too. It strikes me that there is also a lot of delay on the flippers on the fx tables from Steam, so that you cannot respond immediately to all movements of the ball. At first I thought it was due to my old computer running Windows 10pro. But I just bought a mini computer that runs on Windows 11 Pro and should also support the best games, but it also has that slowness on the pinball machines. Even the pre-existing pinball games have that delay, which have been re-released in fx. I play it much better in the old versions. I have fx 2 and fx 3 myself and those problems do not occur there. What I also see in many games is that the side bumpers above the flippers already start to pump when the ball just rolls past them. This way you never get a good grip on the game, it immediately rolls through the side exit at great speed.

Grow is also quite annoyed since he plays FX, he often uses expletives to express his displeasure. He probably notices that too. He never does that otherwise. Then he is lucky that it is still reasonably playable. Probably different processors in his computer?

Only half way through the video, but I don't think I've ever seen you so frustrated with a table before! Achievements look to be super opaque, and even just watching, it feels really hard to know what you should be doing. Hmmm. Edit: Yeah, doesn't look like fun at all.

Maybe a lack of QA in the development process, as they're trying to push out all these tables before Christmas. There's going to be lots of frustrated kids playing this on Christmas Day!

Hmmm, For a table based on a Discovery, there is not a lot going on that reminded me of the series. I would have expected an alternative table to match the alternative universe arc at least.. or at least something with magic mushrooms, but nah, all we get is apparently a generic computer voice saying things that could be any theme. As for the table being difficult,,, that might be a good thing, once you figure out how to handle it,,if it's good pinball.

The sad thing is, those connections are there - the spinning cube target represents the spores and you get a Multiball where you explore their planet after enough shots, and there’s a mirror mode involving the alternate dimension that slightly changes the machine’s rules - but I just wish they were done on a better table.

What a disappointment - after Godzilla I was really expecting Gaspar Viragos to become one of the best new Zen designers, and this table has some very creative design ideas (re: the mini-flipper that flips in both directions), but this table is a massive dud in the rules department. Klingon War is just a massive brick wall of a first mode, and a lot of the modes don't quite utilize the playfield to their fullest - many simply revolve around avoiding a moving object on the playfield. Not to mention the very poor communication of game objectives on the display and through the rather vague audio cues. IMO, worst Zen table of the year, but every designer has their off days. Hopefully Gaspar will learn from what worked and didn't work about this table in his next release. Re: the skill shot, what the game doesn't tell you is that you practically *have* to nudge the table to the right, wasting a tilt warning in the process. Not that big of a deal because skill shot points are kinda worthless compared to what you get from spore multiball.

So they make a trio of Star Trek tables and its based on the new series which sucks but I guess it covers all the bases with a female black lead and a gay white guy etc. Deep space nine and a generic table based of the 2009 cast?????? Where's Kirk and Spock?, what a joke
