The Munsters by Stern

Recommended Posts

I've owned one, perhaps one of the best looking machines available.

After finishing the modes twice with two balls (average player) it was time to move it on.

How many games did it take to accomplish that , I know of one that might be on the market very soon with less than 10 yes ten games played

What a great theme let down by code

Will just have to stick to Deadpool .:041::041:

Maybe 50 games? Once I got the roll on it and understood the limited rule set it seemed easy, although I would have the odd game where it kicked my ass.

Compared to a twd, got, Batman, tron, Deadpool or even a system 11 game like dr dude, it’s a joke of a game although beautiful to look at for us pinheads

Been the problem from this game from the get go.

Customers expect more than what this offers code wise, and so we should.

 

I knew this game would get to this point quickly and feel for current owners as the price will most likely tank hard.

 

I really wanted one early, dodged the bullet , and now wouldn't go near it.

 

Terrible job Dwight Sullivan.

It’s not a mode based game. What was your best score in 50 games?

 

I’m not going to waste my time defending this game, but comparing it to a system 11 or even a 90’s game, is laughable.

Not sure if getting a high score on a game qualifies it as being a fun game though. Is that what you mean?

 

I ended up getting over 1 billion on a 5 ball sited pin and it just wasn't fun. There was nothing in the game that I thought was exciting, or that there was a payoff for doing something. You can time out modes. And its better to time out some of them. eg SPOT. Hitting that SPOT shot is almost an insta drain. You get awarded SPOT for having him pop up from under the ramp. You don't actually have to hit him a bunch of times in order to get awarded the light lit for that mode.

 

Lily is simple - ball only has to bounce over to that huge target 4 times. Herman is only 3 shots... You don't even know how many points you are going to be awarded when you get a Super Jackpot. Half the time its less than 1 million. At least if you knew how many points were on offer you could decide if you wanted to risk that amount.

Firstly 5 ball is cheating [emoji12][emoji23][emoji12][emoji23] Every game gets boring on 5 ball.

 

What I meant was the game is about risk reward and scoring. There’s a lot of depth that’s not so obvious because it’s not a traditional mode based game.

 

I’m talking about Premium/LE because that is a completely different game - I can see why the Pro could be seen as limited.

 

Having said all that, I completely understand it’s not everyone’s game. But the amount of hate this game gets is completely unfounded. The idea of “dodging a bullet” because you didn’t buy a pinball machine is ridiculous.

Laughable because the system 11 game is better? ;)

Yeah I agree. But I only get to play what's sited near me and most of them are 5 ball. I guess its because they are $2 a go, so operators want to give the punters a fair crack.

 

I just wish you knew what risk you were taking to get the reward :) Theres nowhere on the screen that says how much your Super Jackpot will be worth.

Looks black and white to me and it looks shit, that's my opinion..... If you like it great but I am not a fan

 

If that is black and white then you have not looked at a CENTAUR...

Every artist would refer to it as greyscale....

 

Yes the colour versions look way better.....

 

I was hoping for an actual black & white as this is how it was promoted and was also mentioned as the 1st black & white machine since Centaur...

 

That is my point....

 

- - - Updated - - -

 

Black and white TV is actually a greyscale picture

Is greyscale a modern term?

 

Greyscale has been used as a term to describe colour banks in flooring for over 3 decades and does not include blacks and whites...

This actually includes charcoals and greys....Very common colours in flooring for a long time now...

Yeh, that definitely needs to be fixed on the Super jackpot screen, but after a while you get to know based on the amount of Supers waiting to be collected and the multipliers.

 

Are you playing a Pro or Premium? The lower pf rules during Munster Madness are really cool.

So the answer is yes, it's a modern term as black & white TV's have been gone for over three decades :)

The more time I spend with my system 11’s and 80’s bally the more I relize that is a very ordinary release for stern. Definitely a miss from say, Iron Maiden

It's all just an illusion, so are the dots black, white or grey?

I'm gonna say white.....Am I right.....

I am colour blind but these colours are no problem....I think

This is like a picture you focus on for 20 seconds and look at say the sky afterwards and have the image burnt into your retina...

Cool as

Massive code update peoples....NOT :(

 

New code 1.01 released

LE/PREMIUM V1.01 - September 23, 2019

=====================================

New:

- Added a Topper test in the diagnostics.

- The plus (+) button will move the hand to the next hour first going

around a couple times and then stop.

- The ENTER button will make the raven come out for a couple seconds and

say the current hour.

Tweaked:

- Improved the Topper clock. The hand will spin around a couple times before

coming to a stop on the desired hour.

Moved to SYS 2.34:

Updated to nodeboard firmware v0.51.0

Using LEFT+START to end a game during bonus count could leave game graphics

on screen while in attract mode. This has been corrected.

Added Service Menu selection UTIL->ENDGAME. This selection is only

available when there is an active game. When selected the operator will

be prompted to confirm that they wish to end the current game. Once

confirmed and upon exiting the Service Menu, the game will be in attract

mode.

Added Standard Adjustment "ALLOW LEFT+START TO END GAME". Values are:

"NEVER", "FREE PLAY ONLY", and "ALWAYS". Default value is "NEVER".

During an active game, if the LEFT FLIPPER+START BUTTONs are held for

two seconds, the game will be ended.

Added Standard Audit "TOTAL PLAYS ENDED", which will track the number of

times a game is ended via the Service Menu or FLIPPER+START BUTTONs.

Added Standard Adjustment "CREDIT FORMAT". Values are:

"ACTUAL FRACTION" and "REDUCED FRACTION". Default value is "REDUCED

FRACTION". For a USA coindoor when inserting three quarters:

"REDUCED FRACTION" would display "1/4", "1/2", "3/4"

"ACTUAL FRACTION" would display "1/4", "2/4", "3/4"

Update Italian translation of "ENTER INITIALS" to "INSERISCI LE TUE

INIZIALI"

Coin door interlock switch support for Spike2.

LE/PREMIUM V1.02 - September 30, 2019

=====================================

Fixed:

- Topper test in the diagnostics was not showing up as it should.

- The plus (+) button will move the hand to the next hour first going

around a couple times and then stop.

- The ENTER button will make the raven come out for a couple seconds and

say the current hour.
