    MG Download Poll

    It's well documented that the size of MG casinos right now is er, a little on the large side (diplomacy ) but has it actually put you off downloading one? I don't mean "ooh it annoys me so it probably would" or "ooh it annoys me so I'm gonna vote yes", I mean has it already in a single specific instance made you decide not to?

    I voted yes because I was going to join up the Jackpot Factory slots freeroll and then thought "you know what, its not worth the pain of the download/install"

    (thats why I am asking!)

    I voted no, but what their size HAS done is make me buy a new PC with the BIGGEST hard drive I could get, dual 300Gig drives

    I can fit every damn MG casino currently operating and still have room for music & video

    What MIGHT put me off though, are the monthly updates on existing casinos where the promotions are "crap". This is down to time, not so much lack of space. Such casinos remain installed, but do not get logged into and updated each month.

    Incidentally, some of this casino obesity is not necessary, why does Jackpot factory have the files for "Agent Jane Blonde" slot? This is a Grand Privvy "special". Does this mean that every MG casinos downloads EVERYTHING, whether the games are offered or not. There is also an installation file relating to "hidden games", so maybe this is what knocks out those games the casino does not currently offer.

    Download has never been an issue with me. I only play a select few games and always start of with Multi - Hand BJ. Then I download my favorite 3 or 4 Slos in the Background.

    So do I, and that's why I get pissed to no end that I am forced to have all 200 or more games downloaded on my computer at an MG casino. Let me d/l only the ones I want. I definitely voted yes Simmo, and it's about time they do something about it.

    I don't seem to get an option. they just all download and the biggest issue for me is not the initial install but the fact that for the first 4 hours, the games run slowly and judder - basically unplayable - while other games download in "background" (Athlon 2.8Ghz).

    I tried installing one to demo for a freind a couple of months ago and after a while he lost interest saying he couldn't play it like it was - slow, juddery and too frustrating. We even left it "downloading" for 2 hours, went to the pub and when we came back it was just as bad.

    I have to admit its very rare i notice this type of problem. It is all down to how fast your pc is which im sure VWM would agree with me on. i run a core 2 duo and its very rare slowdown or judder occurs for me even when installing a new Mg from scratch.

    Tourney download

    I just downloaded Jackpot Factory on my laptop and had no problems at all and I have a small HD and am wireless...

    I also have quite a few other casinos on it..took me just a few minutes to download ALL the tourneys offered and it was very quick in my opinion...now, I never have checked to see if anything else was downloading in the backround while aI was playing the tournies...but who cares..I am in it for the freebies!
    Today is the Tomorrow, you thought about Yesterday...so live as IT IS your last tomorrow!
