It's possible I'm missing it or misinterpreting the bonus screen, but yeah, another set of eyes would be good...

    Just got an 18 Mil on Shaman, thanks mostly to an extended Eclipse Multiball session.
    how do you get the ball to release on Shaman? I always get it captured, but I can not figure out how to release it for multi-ball.

      Sweet, Shaman is a nice table. Highest for me so far is 9 Million. Need to play that one more.
      Shaman is awesome, but my ball always falls down that damn right side!

      Tesla is the only one I haven't been able to crack the leaderboard yet. It's also the hardest one for me to tell what is going on.
      It is for me, too. I have found a few things to aim for, but nothing particular like I really understand what I'm doing.

        Same here and it kind of ruins the game for me... whats the deal with the ball always going out of bounds and it being out of your control

          Okay, what you've probably got is the ball capture, which is different from a lock. The capture occurs when you've done the element thing and fired another ball into the upper holes on the playfield. That ball is used for the disasters and has nothing to do with multiball.

          Locking a ball on Shaman means you have to knock down all the eclipse targets first, then shoot that same lane one more time. When you do that - you'll see a purple-looking light start to blink, pointing up the center ramp (the one one you hit with the upper right flipper). Shoot that ramp and you'll lock a ball.

          Two ways to release multiball on Shaman once you have balls locked . One is "Quick" multiball by hitting the skull (located near the left ramp) twice in about 5 seconds. One ball will be released, even if you have two locked. The other way is Eclipse multiball, which will occur if you lock three balls. They all come rolling down the lane in a train, so be ready!

          Oh, and the ball locking carries over through the whole game - doesn't all have to be done on one ball.

                  Heads up: It IS working now (my high score on V12 shows up as one from before I shut off my PS3), but your high score from before this update still isn't saved. What I mean is, if you had a high score that didn't rank from before they made this server change, it still won't be there. But from now on, it should hold your best score in memory.

                  To be honest, I think all they did was open up the all-time board to a wider range to fix it - my score ranks in the 6000's now.

                  Oh, and there's no patch - it's all on their end. I did send an email to the same guy about the dorado multiplier though - couldn't hurt.

                        Not sure if this is a by-product of the server-side fix or not, but I'm starting to see a lot of friend-related scores going up on the marquee, even though they're not near the top rankings. Plenty of names I recognize - pretty sweet.

                                The PSN is about to get a couple of bigger names for the PSone classics list...

                                As for MGS I already own the Essential Collection so I've got it on disc, but that is very nice for those who haven't experienced it yet.
