I love that we live in a world where there exists entire stations and channels dedicated to pinball strategy and game play. What a time to be alive! Carve out that niche fellas, keep up the amazing work and thank you for sharing🤘🤙🙌🖖

It's a crazy fun hobby. Hopefully we can keep helping people learn and understand these amazing machines.

These last few tutorials by Travis have been by far the best pinball tutorials I have personally seen on RU-vid or any other platform for that matter. The way he’s recording the pinball play then editing over it with commentary and visuals makes it crystal clear what’s going on. Zero confusion. I really hope you’re getting good feedback for these and continue to make more for new and old games alike.

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

Appreciate it Cody. That's the goal, make these games as accessible and understandable as possible, while trying not to overwhelm with too much information. The long term plan is to be consistent with Stern games and sprinkle in some Bally / Williams games.

I just checked my SIC stats for Godzilla and I have about 100 plays total and stuck at mid 300 million high scores for both the Pro and Premium (played at bars & arcades, as I don't own one). Thanks for the post. This simple strategy will help me elevate my scores.

@zillelben8742 5 месяцев назад

You, my friend, Travis, are not only gifted at pinball, but also have the innate skills required of an effective teacher. I've read the GZ rules but can barely remember them during play. I've watched 2 lengthy fast paced tutorials that attempted to share way too much info & gained little from them. I spent 45 min watching, pausing, replaying this tutorial with rule sheet in hand until I understood each element you covered. I'm really looking forward to your clear concise tutorials with highlight & textual aides, so I can both understand & progress on this really fun game. Thanks so much.

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

Appreciate it. I'm always open to feedback. If an aspect of the content can be better or bring more value to people, I'll do my best to make it happen.

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

@@NeonNijahn The ally inserts move counter-clockwise with right flipper hits. Hitting the scoop will activate whichever insert you have lit at that time.

@combochuck 5 месяцев назад

Hey Travis. I don't know how it took me so long to find this channel, but I'm glad I eventually did. While there are plenty of "how to" pinball videos, I've found them hard to follow for various reasons. #1 reason is usually because people play the game live and try to explain it as they play. But I appreciate your commentary over a recorded session, so you can better structure and communicate the topic. I look forward to watching more and thanks for spending your time and energy towards creating great content!

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the feedback. That's the idea, try to stay as concise as possible without getting in the weeds too much with explanations. With so much going on in these games nowadays, some nuances will get missed from time to time, but that's ok. My overall goal is for everyone who watches to understand the core and general strategies of each game presented.

@rexdeanrds 5 месяцев назад

@TrojanMan78 5 месяцев назад

I also generally do Gilligan (Gigan) first but I do both right and left ramps also to start jet fighter at the same time so I will have two allies. And then I generally do the same, get GZMB ready, change cities, do two ramps THEN hit the scoop so I start Titanosaurus and get allies (Rodan and Mothra) at the same time as this optimizes Rodan time, start GZMB and defeat Titanosaurus. Doing this method I have obtained a Titanosaurus score of 450ish million. Also depending on the power up it might be worth getting the Tier 1 5x time multiplier if you are trying for high scores. TItanosourus would be a good one for that as in a GZMB he can be defeated quickly.

I’m new to pinball in general and have been playing this one a ton! Glad to see I’ve chosen the correct order of operations! I kind of accidentally did the Godzilla multiball while fighting titanasaurus and got 340 mil(#3 high score on the machine). Been chasing that dragon ever since(pun intended), while practicing all the skills needed to do it on purpose now😂

It gets addicting quick. Welcome to this fun hobby! Hope to hear that you topped that score after this weekend.

@leeb2122 5 месяцев назад

Probably a simple question, but I always wondered if you fail to defeat the tier 1 monster (which is usually the case for me) and earn a re-match, should you pick the re-match and try to finish it or move on cities? In a flip frenzy H2H type scenario. Great videos, thanks!

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

Entirely depends on the game state and how many points you need. In a H2H situation, it might be worth re-matching if you haven't crossed the halfway point of the battle to qualify an ally. Especially if you're close to GZ MB. If you've crossed the halfway point and have an ally lit, there's an argument to be made to go ahead and switch cities along with qualifying Mothra for the left outlane ball save safety.

@ryanmarciano 5 месяцев назад

Great tutorial thank you. Can someone please help with the ski jump? I literally don't understand the mechanics. Hold up right flipper, as it comes over the flipper what do I do? Is it a tap-pass? I've heard you bump it? Bump what? Where? With what do I bump it? This is an honest question legit advice is appreciated. Thanks again for the great video. As said elsewhere, keep it up, please.

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

Nudge the machine upwards right as the ball is coming to the joint (between the flipper and the plastic/metal guide). Sometimes you don't have to do anything at all though if the ball has enough speed already.

@ScottParisi 5 месяцев назад

How do you play these tables?

@Rich_Ice 5 месяцев назад

How could anyone possibly remember a portion of this. I know how to start the basic modes and have only completed a couple of them with having Godzilla a year now. Basically after starting a mode all I'm doing is trying to keep from draining balls and hope I build points.

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

Don't think of anything else but the mode / Kaiju battle itself. Once you want to learn the other parts of the game, don't know of anything else but that particular part of the game itself. Once you understand how something starts and the nuance of it, then you can combine existing knowledge together. I do have a video coming out within a couple of months that explains how to learn and remember rulesets quickly.

@Rich_Ice 5 месяцев назад

Thank you. I look forward to your coming videos.@@ThePinballCompany

@alb1306 2 месяца назад

I just got a pro. I’m at the correct pitch for the machine, but after hitting the right ramp, once it returns to the my right flipper it does not come back with enough velocity to be able to hold the right flipper and then hold left and have the ball hop over to stage it on the the left flipper. It just barely makes it to the tip of the left flipper and I’ve got to flip it away or else it’ll drain. I notice he says “if the copy allows,” does that mean my machine just doesn’t allow this exact mechanic?

@ThePinballCompany 2 месяца назад

It's possible. Since the games are all their own individual build, there's always quirks and nuances that occur. If your game is at the correct pitch, most of the time a ski jump should work, but sometimes you have to time a forward nudge on the lockdown bar at just the right time. Typically this is when the pinball is just now passing the joint of the flipper (where the flipper and plastic meet). Keep your flipper up and then give it a hard forward nudge to help the ball ski jump over to the other flipper.

@filipsnell2705 5 месяцев назад

Does tournament settings/mode effect the battle modes?

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

Good question. The only thing I'm aware of that competition settings alters is the Powerup Levels as they're deterministic. In standard mode, the Powerup becomes randomized.

@lakerone 5 месяцев назад

What pitch is your machine at?

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

This one was at 7.5 degrees I believe.

@brianharris5446 25 дней назад

Thanks for this great video ! I was wondering the same thing about pitch. Do you know if the flipper powers were adjusted to compensate for the increased pitch? I just got my premium 2 weeks ago and still trying to find the sweet spot.

@DavidKlausa 5 месяцев назад

0:52 "You can hit the same ramp twice." Really? I don't think that's true on the machine I usually play on, and the rulesheet says "To qualify a Kaiju Battle you must shoot a left and right ramp..."

@ThePinballCompany 5 месяцев назад

V1.01 update changed the ramp behavior to have “Medium” difficulty be the default. This difficulty keeps both ramps lit until kaiju battle is lit. Once you change cities, the difficulty increases, which becomes needing to hit both the left and right ramp.

@DavidKlausa 5 месяцев назад

@@ThePinballCompany Ah, good to know. I appreciate the vids!
