BLACK KNIGHT GLITCH

[Wombat Guy]

First off, I love the game and how it's stays true to actual pinball machines giving me the chance to experience these great games!
My one complaint though is that on the "BLACK KNIGHT" table most of the time when you hit the top kick out hole when going for the three lock multiball the ball jams. This happens multiple times a game making one of my favorite tables very annoying to play. I know how you guys want to make a pinball experience true to form but I highly doubt Steve Ritchie intented to create a shot were the ball gets stuck most of the time and you have to shake the table over and over which half the time doesn't even help anything which unnecessarily frustrating and not fun.
In terms of glitches its very small but it changes the whole dynamic of the experice. I'm not sure if this happens on the orignal table but if I had the table I would just fix the problem or get a professonal to look at the machine since its only the top kick out hole.

Thank's for taking the time to read my post.

Black Knight bugs are so terrible that makes me sad to play it.
A pity, because it's one of my favorites tables.

Black Knight is the most broken and poor quality table in TPA right now. Easily the worst. I mentioned this just the other day in another thread, in fact. It's a pity because it is absolutely a classic table.

I think it will be remade at some point but they have provided no timeline when this will happen.

Well, it's the only big problem ive noticed with that table. It's just when you hit that top kick out hole in the top play field and the ball is suppose to lock but it doesn't always do that and it gets stuck.
So you don't actually get the ball lock and a new ball to plunge without shaking the table which most of the time leads to tilting or even in worse cases it will tilt and the ball won't even reset which can happen and you just have the words stuck on the screen which says "TILT" and they wont go away and you cannot get a new ball. There nothing you can do about that when that happens and it happen to me once on what could have been one of my highest scores ever.

At this point I wanted to find every cat and throw every cat at other cats and dose them in lava then take a flamethrower and burn my pc computer machine into tiny molten toy soliders then melt those toy soldiers over the molten cats to make an army of firelions. But I didn't do that. That wouldn't have fixed the glitch.

[Awesome!]

this happens to me regularly but one tiny tap is usually enough to get it locked. haven't come close to tilting because of it yet but now that i say that i'm sure i will

DRUGS YO!!!!

black knight? yeah there's some funny stuff[i.imgur.com] going on with that table involving multiball.

The OP ball jam is the only bug I've noticed so far in playing a dozen tables. I hope it gets fixed, of course, but a friend's actual Black Knight had more problems than this but was still fun to play.

Yeah happens here too, a nudge helps the ball drop in properly but still annoying.

Nudging doesn't always get the ball out and often leads to TILT. Often I just press ESC and do the "Call Attendant" feature to free the ball but that doesn't always work which is just pure frustration when it doesn't. Plus, the fact is you have to wait 10-20 seconds just to launch a new ball back up then get it stuck the same exact way and than have to wait agian for the unjamming feature unless your unfortunate enough to get TILT bugged were you are stuck in this permanent TILT limbo screen because the ball won't reset and even if you try to do "Call Attendant" or non stop shake the table it won't save you from this purgatory and you have to close the game out and start over.
I wish Farsight would actually do something about it.
