Rival Slots and Casinos.. Need Some Input!!

[Zodiac]

it changed unfortunately nothing Rob, absolutely nothing

the most horrible connecting is at paradise8, it make no fun so i let it uninstalled

Playing at Simon Says and ThisisVegas is easier and don't make so much trouble although it gives also connecting problems

and at Davincis Gold always the same: in, out, in, out, in, out ...............

so, makes playing no fun

it didn't solved anything

in my case, i haven't even been able to login at all because of some "critical" error. no support, no solutions, no technical team response even after i sent them their "debug" file. the 24 hour wait has become the new year

i got one e-mail from pantasia saying they saw i logged on and is everything ok now? what?!?!?!?!

the thisisvegas rep seems to be the only one from rival with a clue...and i never even signed up there.

Hi Rob,

These payout issues were brought to a head last year & although things got a little heated, eventually the slots were adjusted and I think everyone was happy with outcome.

The free spins on Cleo & others are simply not hitting again as they used to. Then when you do get them, you repeatedly get nothing.

I have had 40 free spins before on Cleo and won $1 - and it does suck!!

Obviously I'm not the only one who gets jack on the free spins.

but since the paytables were changed about 6 weeks ago

Now I read that you guys have been screwing around with the pay tables again!

Then in this thread it shows you've been doing it again...Or is this just a carry over from that

As I know you guys (Rival) have a habit of tinkering with slots and their payout tables I thought it best to let everyone know how long this has been going on for.

Again my question is why can't you leave the damn payouts and the slot mechanics alone? Other casino do and still make money. You think after being busted so many times you'd learn to leave the slots & their pay tables alone

(This thread goes for some 9 pages, well worth a read.)

they have reduced the paytables on slots, when I asked Live Help for an explanation here is what I got. It appears the tables have been cut by at least 50%. I like the software, great customer service, but what the hell are they thinking!!

I was a little quick with my first analysis of the paytable change, I said they were reduced by about 50%, I was WRONG, more like 75-80%, what use to pay $1.50 now pays .25c

The 5 reel slots have been revised with not just changes in the paytables, but in the reels as well. This means even though one particular win may pay less, if you hit the freespins (which now occur more frequently) you are looking at 15 freespins with 5x multiplier for some of the games. Freespins can also be re-triggered. The games are much looser now.

The thing that bothers me is this statement "The 5 reel slots have been revised with not just changes in the paytables, but in the reels as well."

If you can change the slots reels then wouldn't this affect the pay-out %...From memory you were asked Rob who does your pay-out auditing...and I'm yet to receive a response on that one.

I was always under the impression that legit casinos would have their games audited before release. But if your constantly changing the reels and the pay-tables then no audit is going to prove anything, is it!

Unlike MG which is a no-go area for me 6pm - 11:30pm (ridiculously intermittent connection ) I have not had any troubles recently logging in & playing at Rival casinos. (I did have problems a few month back).

However several times when I just wanted to check something on their websites I have suffered ludicrously slow or even no connection.
I don't know anything about servers, or where theirs is located (the Moon?) but they urgently need to do something to improve internet connectivity.

The are still many problems with the software, unfortunately. I had no problems playing a few weeks ago, but last night was rather a pain. Took several attempts before I could even log on. Then after playing I went to the Cashier section and receive IE Script Error pop ups. Doesn't matter whether I click 'yes' or 'no' to continue runnings scripts on page, I can't tell whether I've met WR. Also, clicking the current promo I'm playing, doesn't go anywhere and I can't get a look at the T&C again for the bonus I'm playing. Can't remember if there's a max cashout on it or not.

I'll try again this evening, and if all else fails, I'll have to contact CS.

At least I'm not the only one...

Funny, I don't have connection or interface problems. I install it where it wants to go, and I use winpatrol and when installing 'scotty' asks me if I want to allow the program to make a registry change in host sump sumpn and I've always replied, 'no'. Might be part of the reason?

(I do get all kinds of funky error messages when I accidentally open two incidences of the same casino in rapid succession)

[NASHVEGAS]

I just installed THISISVEGAS and so far no problems but I was just experimenting with their BJ in fun mode as I am prolly done online playing BJ for real and going to just stick to B and M's til my online questions and issues are clear if ever. Or I simply prefer a real deck versus a hearsay random shuffle deck!////sorry for derail!

[Mousey]

Had no problems at all logging in, playing, and no script errors in the cashier a short while ago. (I've cleared the WR and made a small WD. ) Rob is aware of the player connections and error issues. The Rival team continues to plug away at getting these issues resolved.

well thankfully(i think) i never have any problems with running the rival software on my pc, but as much as i like the software and the cs i get from the rival casinos i must say they have some crappy slot payouts and in the free spins unless its one of the i slots i can barely make $3 on the 10 free spins, this they need to change

So I guess you could not offer any advice for a newbie at Rivals on which slots to try....fyi I like the 9 liners like Thunderstruck at MG.....any rec's appreciated......too tired to search and read threads...TIA!
