Stern Pinball Venom v0.91 Gameplay w/ Commentary - 28 Billion Point Game

[@ps3man8581]

That was incredible to watch! The ball control and shot accuracy are just unreal! No wonder you're a top ranked Pinball player! Please make more of these for any other game you can dominate like this! It was super fun to watch and very informative about your decision making and the strategies involved to get the most scoring possibility. Thanks :D

[@ThePinballCompany]

More tutorials, game explanations, strategies, and overviews coming very soon!

This was a good video. You're a talented player. It's easy to see why you're number two at The Pinball Company right after Dominic.

Fantastic video! Please keep them coming!

[@TiltedSpyder]

Great video as usual! Happy to see ya back in the content creator saddle. Okay, after watching your game play and my own it looks like the "1", "2", and "4" square inserts that are lit on the middle/right side of the playfield are the playfield multipliers. They advance or start flashing every time you hit the bell tower when lit. If I am not mistaken I believe there is a MAX of up to 7X playfield multiplier as per the rulesheet. But there is no clear way to know exactly where one sits with their playfield "X" like how the shot multipliers are displayed on the LCD. At first, I thought if the insert(s) were lit solid it meant that it that was the playfield x 1:1. For example, if "1" , ""2" or "4" are lit solid they they mean exactly what they say, 1x, 2x or 4x but when flashing they are added together to total the playfield x. "1" and "2" flashing means you have 3X and "1", "2" and "4" means you have 7x. That is the only thing that makes sense but like I said I am not 100% certain how they are tallied and displayed. Still doesn't explain if you have a playfield x of 5 or 6. I do hope someone can confirm that this is how its supposed to work. Time stamp 44:55 through 49:48 displays this behavior well. Thanks again for the content and keep em coming!

LE’s haven’t shipped yet, wish i could help

I think when you timed out on Lasher you could have pressed the action button (blinking orange I believe) to add more time with Sleeper. I don't think Sleeper adds it automatically. Lots of nuances I keep learning on this game... Also, it looks like the pf multiplier stacks with the shot multiplier. At one point in a Rampage (I think?) you should have gotten 30mil for a shot and you got 120mil. So the 2x shot multiplier + the 2x pf must have made it 4x total. Great video, learned a ton!

Fantastic video Travis! Although, it does make me feel a little inadequate 😊

[@ThePinballCompany]

You're good enough. You're smart enough. And doggone it, people like you.

Was hoping to see Klyntar Multiball, and heard you comment about it, but it looks like Stern didn't add it into the game until code version 0.94, in mid-November. Would love to see another playthrough where you start this final mode.

[@ThePinballCompany]

Hopefully, I can give it a go in the future.

[@AgentFlashus]

Love the vid! Please do this for Foo Fighters pin

[@ThePinballCompany]

Coming soon!

[@TyKats34]

Dude! You should’ve had Klyntar multiball but the game didn’t qualify Knull Defeated at 41:18. Have you gotten it since?

[@ThePinballCompany]

Unfortunately it was not coded into the game yet during this gameplay recording. I haven't played it yet, but probably should go back and check it out.

[@777Sylvio]

From what I've seen, is it only possible to play Carnage multiball once per game? that's right? and congratulations on your game, you play very well, showww.

[@ThePinballCompany]

It's been a while since I've last played it. Usually I'm only doing one Carnage MB per game, but maybe it's possible to do it twice? I'll have to check and see.

[@thezombiebiker]

So, does this game require a smartphone to play in its entirety?

[@ThePinballCompany]

A smartphone is needed to connect the game to Insider Connected, which allows you to maintain XP progress and keep your levels in between games. However, if you do not care about XP and earning different achievements, a smartphone is not needed to play the game.

[@thezombiebiker]

@@ThePinballCompany thank you 🙏

[@IDrink2Much]

Please correct me if I'm wrong but you can also set up a Stern Insider account from a computer, print out the QR code, tape it to any card you have (mine is an old Subway gift card) and play Connected games that way. This assumes carrying a smart phone is ur ONLY issue. I hate being on my phone all day so I just carry around a physical card with my QR code on it and scan that.

[@ScottParisi]

@@IDrink2Much, you are correct. There are a few guys by me that come to tournaments with a piece of paper.

[@somekindofafroperson]

Bro fix the settings on your mic

[@arubial1229]

His mic sounds fine

[@ProfessionalAmateurPinball]

Fix the speakers on your phone, mic sounds fine

Bad art is a big problem in modern machines. When a game cost 7000$ you dont expect coners being cut in the animation. Another problem is boring play fields where all the shots are lined up in a row on the top of the table. Seems to be all too common in modern pins. 😒

Don’t buy a new stern. I bought a brand new (nib) Iron Maiden premium legacy of the beast. I have had it for 2 weeks now. It’s Level side to side and the incline bubble is square in the shooting bubble. 3 times the ball enters the tomb then never emerges at the gate like it is supposed to. The game eventually says pinball missing then move onto the next ball or ends game if you are on your last ball.emailed stern. Zero response. Emailed where I purchased it from. He said he would email stern also.he got back to me to send video to capture the moment. Sure enough happened again. I videoed it. Sent it to the distributor. He said he’d send it to stern. 10 days ago. Not a word from stern. Distributor says he will let me known when he hears from them. A 2 week old machine brand new and I can’t get a response from the manufacturer. 9499 should dictate some kind of customer service. Stern sucks as far as backing their product.

Here I am feeling good hitting 250mil on my second time playing the table 🥲
