same pinball..but plays differently

[Dirty daz]

hi guys  just wondering  ive had two tz pinballs that both played differently  eg the ball bounces around in different places,flippers smooth/heavy  maybee the angle was different but the two games both played totaly differently
what do you guys think?...  DAZ..

new rubbers, different colour rubbers, rebuilt flippers, new coil sleeves ??

So many variables.

Like playing a particular title on site that hasn't been maintained, and then playing the same title in someones collection.

[Strangeways]

A restored pin plays better than a reconditioned pin which plays better then a shopped pin which plays better that a sited pin

Even the simple task of flipper rebuild kits and changing coil sleeves in slings can make a pin play better

Regular cleaning and waxing makes a huge difference

[AskJacob]

also could throw in a mylar vs diamondplate vs waxed varnish factor in the mix.

so many things involved in the pinball experience!

Cheers

The benefit of home game advantage like the home ground - no 2 are the same probably.  Just too many things that can be different, even if slightly.  You could probably set yourself a task of having 2 play exactly the same and never quite get there.  Maybe there's a challenge there...

i remember playing pinbot when it was new, two different pins and 2 different sites (both pinbot)
one was harder to play than the other, yet they were both only a few months old and both clean.
