Aliens (NetEnt)

[dunover]

This pretty much sums up my feelings about it as well, i think you sometimes are a bit overly negative about NetEnt slots but this one really deserves the Dunover takedown.

i never got to the queen in my first session but i have played a bit in free play today and got there a few times, haven't managed to kill her yet though. And the best feature i've seen so far was about 130xBet.

So Dunover i think i am not alone in wondering what will you name this slot? they made it tricky for you this time since it's just one word.

OK, I'll be a little more objective here. I like DoA, hate St*rb*rst (but it's good for a WR grind-out.) I love Wild Rockets, Evil-lution is good and JaTB is too as is Wankenstein. It's the recent releases that seem dire.

I've just realized why they made it so bad. After reading my criticisms of TFTUT and Vile Torture and Tragic Boretals, Netent have made a slot so bad that in comparison these now seem OK - and it's worked! I now consider TFTUT to be a decent slot!

You are indeed correct; 'Aliens' is a tough one to name. I'll come back later....

You are generally correct though, there is no denying that the payout design of the newer slots have changed. I guess this is an inevitable progression, they try to find clever ways to take our money while still maintaining RTP.
I think they have to be careful though, as slots already have a high house edge and if people never manage to cash out then it might hurt their long term profits as people might get discouraged and quit.

As for naming the slot you don't have to just use one word, you could use several or something in combination with aliens. As long as we understand which slot you are talking about it's all good .

I think an acronym is best:

Awfully Longwinded Including Excessive Noisy Shooting

OK, that's what it is then - ALIENS in bold and red, as the colour red serves as a warning to any poor sods tempted to play it....

 

[tryme]

I haven't played it yet as I can't get it to load, but surely it's gotta be re-named 'Fail-iens'?

Or very simple,what about FAILiëns.

Quite apt I think

Sigh - Once again NetEnt prove why everyone is so justifiably critical on their new games. I did a test run for a few spins and naturally lost over 200x bet before seeing a small recovery. At that point, I was still over 150x bet down, bored and just left the game.

I have seriously lost faith in this software provider - They create unique and exciting Slots BUT they frustrate players and ensure they never get ahead.

Oh good grief, how those alien movies made me want to go cry under my bed, way back then!!

LOL...and now the ALIENS slot makes ME want to go and cry under my bed.....

Playgirl slot maybe, but you'd have a job airbrushing the men's todgers out like they have the girls' bits on Playboy.

As for 'pretty fairies' do you mean a gay kind of slot or the mythical ones?

There's plenty of fairies ones already, and also a couple for the girls that I know of:
MG: Sneak a Peek - Hunky Heroes
Crypto: Thunder from Downunder
(The second is probably better as they are real hunks, not cartoons!)

[rshkrn]

Errm WHAT...HOW???

This is out at betsafe Gave it a few spins with play money but haven't really figured out the working....hunt...activity...encounter....hive...fight....WHATTTTTTTTTTTT????

 

[tryme]

rshkrn, I'd love to be able to help but I still can't get this damn game to load. I've tried Firefox, Chrome, Safari, IE. I've updated graphics drivers. I've walked widdershins around a ring of toadstools...but nothing works. I'm willing to bet that the casinos are gonna get a lot of complaints about the game not loading.

Is your hardware acceleration enabled. I had to enable mine in chrome.

 

[kazzi]

But omg how could they screw up this game so bad, sounds and looks amazing but thats where it stops streak of deadspins then finally you able to get close to the feature and it gives u another streak of deadspins.

I did hit the feature 3times and it ended as fast as it came best was 16x, im guessing winning anything without getting to the last feature is impossibole.

 

[tryme]

Thanks, Amourgirl, but yes, hardware acceleration is enabled in Chrome.

If you talking abaout this slot ? im remember Im testing it few years ago in real mode heh...

but ok this is topic abaout new Net Ent slot aliens - not pervert video slot.

 

[BoomUp]

15 freespins - 14 dead spins one gave me €0.05
netent at its best

 

[Dinahnana]

Got 30 free spins from Guts. Thanks Ben Won 4 euro. I hate this slot. It is frustrating to play. Total crap and I will not be playing it in the future. It's the worst Netent release so far IMO.

 

[zebedy]

Thanks, Amourgirl, but yes, hardware acceleration is enabled in Chrome.

Had the same problem with that message and mine was turned on also, switched to Firefox and everything worked OK so it looks like there might be a glitch with Aliens and Chrome

 

[kazzi]

Got 30 + 25 freespins from Guts won 24x won a feature that ended on 2nd spin.

Lost those without any more wins, i guess its all about being lucky and get a good streak of wins and you can get "alot" of features in a small amount of time but ya good luck

 

[dobbul]

Help!!.....Lol

I had a similar problem in Chrome, it said "Unsupported computer graphics hardware detected". But i found that it worked perfectly in Firefox and Internet Explorer, have you tried any of those?

After updating my graphics card drivers it now works correctly in chrome as well.

Ok, total technophobe here! I can't get the game to work at all I've tried all the suggestions, 3 browsers - google, IE and Firefox and I still keep getting that error message, even though I've been to settings and checked the relevant box.

I've also tried to find an updated AMD Driver from their website but the trouble there is that I don't even know which AMD driver (if any) I have. The auto-detect thing on their website couldn't find it.....(I told you I'm an utter technophobe, lol).

I'd really like to get it sorted so I can try the game so I'd appreciate any help from anyone experienced in this type of stuff. If you can help please send me a PM; I'd be extremely grateful. The only info I can definitively provide is that I use an MSI netbook with Windows XP. Sorry for being a dummy

Unlike other browsers, which run just the generic Flash, Chrome by default runs it's own flash and the generic flash. If it works on other browsers, turning off Chrome's own flash should fix it. Not sure why this is the default setting, in my experience running those 2 flashes causes more problems than it helps with, it can cause flash animations to lag or not work at all.

Chrome has 2 flash versions at chrome://plugins/ , Chrome's own PepperFlash\pepflashplayer.dll and generic Flash Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32_13_0_0_182.dll , having both of them running at the same time can cause issues with flash based slots, disabling PepperFlash and using just Macromed\Flash fixed the "Unsupported computer graphics hardware detected" message for me.

 

[Jazzbaz]

Perhaps the most cynical moneygrabber from Netent so far. I wanted to like this slot so bad since Aliens is perhaps my favourite movie-saga of all time. The slot is smoke and mirrors at its finest. Superb graphics and sounds as is expected from netent these days, but my god what a piece of shit game lies underneath.

I have rattled around maybe 2000+ spins in freeplay and real money so far and one(!) over 100xbet so far. You'd think it is an ultra low variance game from the sheer incapability of the slot to pay out anything decent, but the mindnumbing number of dead spins doesn't support that. In other words, netent variance in play yet again. It also reminds me of Elements in that when you are close to getting to the bonus game, the reels will simply thwart you far more often than you feel they should.

Even if you get to the hive, not even a 100xbet is quaranteed. Which is simply brutal since it is very difficult (and costly) to get there. In order to win anything worthwhile you are basically relying on a hail mary line win when you have a big multiplier on one of the better symbols.

In sum: no sense in pouring real money into this bottomless pit of a slot. To be honest, I am not sure I even wanna continue playing it in free play. Such is the frustration and disappointment.

 

[tinybettor]

What a disaster of a slot. I cannot believe this is the best Netent could muster with such a recongized brand as Aliens. Tonnes of dead spins as usual and really hate the collection aspect. I hope MG can deliver with Terminator.

 

[hoff1985]

I don't think it's that bad. If the slot is in a good mood it can make you happy And for me it is quite suspenseful in the bonus to hope that i get more ammunition

Love it!

Of around 60 bonus sessions i only made it to the hive about 10 times, but that's still ok.

Had around 5-8x over 100x stake wins... Still waiting to kill the queen.

If the slot is in a good mood it can be that you will trigger the bonus every 10-15 spins.

+100
I think forcing somebody to play this slot would be a good form of torture. After 5 minutes you will be begging for mercy. After the last few Netent releases I honestly didn't think they could get any worse. Well I was wrong. I only played it today for about 40 spins and I wanted to smash my laptop I was so frustrated with this game. It is complete and total crap. Anything is better than this.

I bloody hope so but I am not holding my breath. If its awesome I shall be pleasantly surprised. If its crap then I will not be disappointed.

 

[Slotster!]

Noone sent me free spins you miserable bunch.

So I paid for some anyway.

That slot is MENTAL.

Gave it about seven minutes before giving up on trying to understand literally ANYTHING that was going on.

May revisit at a later date. Possibly when drunk.

 

[spintee]

Board after my 5 free spins from leovegas, (return 45p)
Had no end of emails, Guts has got deposit 20 get 30 spins tomorrow, I think I give that a miss

 

[kidgloves]

Thanks for the 30 free spins at GUTS Ben, no deviation there to your top notch customer service

They say first impressions last, but even as a gambler when you know thousands of spins isn't enough to get a true feel for a game, my first impression of 29/30 spins being dead made me want to run for the hills.

If the game can't even yield the balance maintaining kind of low variance wins that I would accept as an eventual death by a thousand cuts, and by all current experiences, it doesn't have a top drawer bank busting win in it, then what's the point?

I think I'll put the movie on and just watch that, it's going to be a hell of a lot cheaper.

 

[miso]

Just going through my emails after busy morning, some 8 or 9 casinos sent out free spins.
Let`s go claim them, see what happens

Edit: That was quick And BTW the achievements disappear after FS.

 

[Finn]

Had a pretty nice session on this game.

Started at 60 euros rolling with the smallest possible bet, 15 cent stakes.

Went down to 50 euros.

Then won 59 euros on the bonus game, consisting mainly of following hits
- 10.8 euro from the 2 blue stripes aliens
- 10 euro from the red stripes aliens.
- 36 euro from hive destruction

Then got some ok bonus games.

Then got nice hit of 37.7 euros from other bonus game, consisting mainly of winning 30 euros at yellow stripes aliens round.

Ended the session with 156 euros.

 

[Jasminebed]

Another licensed slot that Canadians can't play. Thanks all for making me feel so much better about it.

And a very sincerely thank you to Guts for sending me some spins on Starburst instead. I know it's not everyone's cuppa, but it is one of my favourite games and gets play almost every Netent gaming session.

 

[naththo]

Duke Nukem Quote to Alien "Damn, your ugly!" lol That slot is not my type either. So ugly.

[lotusch]
