wow a game played on a computer that is computer oriented?

now that is a surprise

LMFAO!!!!

Think you both have a valid point here. arcade isnt laughable certainly, its just an easier, simpler and quicker version of the game.
On the other hand you can't compare it to reg or orig which are much harder with more balls and bigger tables which makes potting more difficult.
You can't argue with facts, 50+ players with arc 107s, compared to 22 with orig 147s and 20 with reg 147s.
This doesnt make arcade laughable though, just easier.

On topic:

Sometimes it feels like the computer is against you but much of it is psychological, once you miss a couple of easy ones you wont be as confident of potting harder ones so you are more likely to miss... thats just how it works.

Though i have put a theory to people before which seemed reasonable, don't know if any staff can comment on this, but i reckon there is a random element built into the coding that every now and then makes a shot that is going in hit the jaws and miss. Even like 1 in 500 or 1 in 1000 shots but im sure its there

arcade anyone can beat anyone no matter of rankings

killer has arcade balls...hardly like killer where a good safety shot can lose the next man a life in a game of arcade hit and hope best policy you are sure to pot some thing..

swindon will not beat millwall so justified. what will swindon bring to the championship?
low average of fans at home and not many travelling to boost attendance at any away games

ok so the title should have been so predictable...arcade hit and hope seems to be the order of the day, regular is a little better and original is an harder game with more skill involved.

i prefer killer unless your playing in a room where teamwork helps to kill others.

sorry for misleading you in the title, but i just think the game overall is going down hill whatever changes have been made are heavily influencing the game.

You are just arguing for the sake of arguing now. Killer and arcade are played on the exact same table. Both use the arcade balls. The physics, speed, control of the white, potting angles are all the same. Hit and hope occurs more often in killer because any ball can be potted at any time. Your arguments are ridiculous. This thread is ridiculous and you are acting ridiculous.

Good safety play can be applied in all games.

The only thing laughable is your attitude. By all means leave the game if you don't like it. Nobody likes a Drogba (Edit - Sorry Chelsea fans!) That Swindon comment is still disgraceful, no justifying it.

Also just for fun:

I'm mainly an arcade man and you are mainly a killer man. The stats show that if you can play arcade, you can play killer just as well.

I didnt know you was a mod telling folk that they can leave the game

Why would a mod tell you to leave the game? Done with you now. Made my point perfectly. Carry on being an absolute moron. By the way, that's your choice, nobody is modding you lmao!

Mobay likes a good old rant! Reminds me of someone... =\ lol.


Well tbh it cant really be computer orientated, I can't see it butttt...

I'm not like....great at this game...im good but not great, and i hit 3 cents back2back then 2 max's back2back and 6 cents in 8 games...

2 guests broke and hit the pink, and I cleared. But everything went just right, i didnt fluke anything or anything like that, but i just knew i was going to make the cents (for a change).

But i guess its just "one of those days" when you dont miss, i didnt miss a shot in 8 games, i went in off twice, but didnt fail to pot a ball in 8 games.

Its like the oppisite to "one of those days" when everything goes wrong.

Its life! One big round about!

Also John is right lol, Killer = Arcade - Yellow/Green/Brown/Blue/Pink lol.

However!!!!

"The only thing laughable is your attitude. By all means leave the game if you don't like it. Nobody likes a Drogba (Edit - Sorry Chelsea fans!) That Swindon comment is still disgraceful, no justifying it."

Thats totally not cool! How dare you insult Drogers! He is a beast of a man! What a player! Best striker in the premiership and the most prolific!

Disgusting comment to make! I'm outraged

Plus slightly hypocritical to tell him off then make a comment like his yourself!

Dont worry Drogba, I love you, its all good

Haha I knew you would be straight in to defend Drogba! The "Sorry Chelsea fans" was 99% for you

Drogba is amazing, but my god he loves a whinge

you forgot about that part of my statement...
once you can do that then come back to me
