Rival CSR -incompetence or sheer stupidity

[zap987]

The server did give you retrigger, it didnt mean to give you the pick bonus. So you didnt actually miss a win. Slots dont work the way that it first generates the symbols and then the win accordingly, its the other way around. So its just down to poor design.

Its annoying and shouldnt happen, especially not with a software that has been in the market for some time already. They dont seem to be interested in fixing it which is yet another proof of their incompetence.

Several of the Rival slots have their reels laid out to allow multiple bonus rounds to hit on the same spin. This is most likely not a display error, rather an actual error in not giving the bonus round.

Yes, I agree with this.
The reels on several Rival slots are clearly deliberately designed so that you CAN win two bonuses in one spin.
If they did not want this to happen it would be extremely simple for them to make sure the two different scatters had at least 3 other symbols between them on all the reels, then a 'double trigger' would be impossible.

I have had 'double bonuses' on Future Fortunes and Wheel of Fortune, so I know it should and does work on those two.

This is yet another Rival glitch on top of all the others. This is frustrating beyond description - they would be the best software on the net if they would only take their heads out of their bottoms, listen to us and sort these (relatively minor) glitches out!!!!

Just wait till one of these errors goes in the PLAYER'S favour (like the recent Playtech Alien Hunter one - or the less recent Microgaming "illegitimate play" one) and you will see those heads move from those a$$es so fast...................

Its quite irrevelant how the reels are laid out. If the server has decided to award just a retrigger, not a pick bonus, its just down to "miscommunication" between the "win" and "visual" engines.

What bothers me more is Rivals attitude. Similar errors have been reported quite often but Rival doesnt give a heck about it. I guess it doesnt affect the number of players in any way.

Sorry, but I have to disagree strongly. It does matter a lot how the reals are laid out.
We are talking about online slots here, not rigged fruit machines.
IMO the stop of each reel is completely random - the wins are not predetermined en block by the software.
I'm the first to have a go at Rival about their stupid glitches, but in my opinion this one is nothing to do with a "visual engine"; it's a different totally stupid glitch which Rival will no doubt just bury their heads in the sand about again & hope all those nasty whinging players just go away...

Thats actually wrong. The wins arent determinated by the reel stops. I know it and wont argue about it. If someone states something else they are either lying or dont know.

The number of symbols are right tough so you can calculate the return for a slot. But you shouldnt stare yourself blind how the reels stop.

OK, prove it & I wont argue about it either!

Havent got in writing. But confirmed 100% by RTG and ITG and pretty much by MG. How could they otherwise design them to give unproportional amounts of near-misses?

The amount of near-misses has a very strong relation to how much you will gamble. More near-misses the more you will gamble and the casino makes more profit. BTW this is the exact way it was described by a former casino manager at an accredited RTG and he had it confirmed from RTG.

When I get the free spins on Rival slots I hope to get the 2nd bonus while in free spin mode because the wins in the 2nd bonus are also x's 3.
That's what I love about Rival slots.
