Sorry Bloatgoat but your entire post just goes to show how little you know about the online / land based markets.
Slots, whether server based or not, are doing exactly what you say they should. It has its own "RTP" AND works exactly as landbased games do. Did you know that there are many land-based jurisdictions that require the result to come from a central system? So that's the first thing you have got wrong and / or misunderstood.
Secondly, and I have no idea where you have got this incorrect information from, but you state that landbased games are calculated "over 100,000 games and online over 1.5million". This is pure garbage. Whether online or land-based, it is totally dependent on how the maths is done as to how big the cycle is to calculate it. I've done land-based slots that are calculated over 4 billion games to get the exact RTP. I've also done simple reel band based games where it's just a few million. But it's irrelevant - the market has no impact on the cycle or the game unless it's a market where the RTP HAS to be calculated over shorter cycles, but there aren't many of those and none of them are online.
And to say "someone gambled 4 x 300k and lost therefore it's rigged" is stupid. Of course you will lose eventually... And what were his stakes? Over how long?
You also can't just say "I agree with the article therefore it's true"... That's a ridiculous stance. If you agree with a flat earth video, it doesn't make the earth flat - it's still a globe. Gambling is a dangerous past time because you will all lose eventually - and sometimes we have bad experiences and sometimes good ones. And when it goes bad we like to think that it wasn't luck - it was some scummy casino manager pressing a "lose everything" button because somehow that's easier to comprehend than it just being luck.
Sorry, got banned, but anyway, here's my shot. They changed the gaming over to serversided gaming, everything is being piled on both landbased and online. It's more 'safer' for the casino's and stricter control. This does'nt mean that the RTP or some shit changed, it's just that they shifted from stand-alone to a central system. It's difficult to find a independent slot on any casino these days. Prove me incorrect.
Sorry again, it was a mistype, i did'nt mean 100.000 but more in the millions. While a RTP test might pass, the difference in between online and landbased is extremely huge. Why 1.5 billion spins in the first place? It seems to me that online is blown into obvlion when it comes to having a fair chance. I am not here to defend landbased, but i far had better succes in Landbased then any other online casino. Oh yeah, a one time 100 spins on a 20 euro bet on a game called Zeus. 10k. When i calculated the withdrawl vs deposits, i pretty much came straight again.
When i compare my winnings in a landbased casino, sorry, best day 17k. Won a brand new car. Won a holliday cheque of over 7500 euro. Left the casino's 7 out of 10 times with profit because i had a working gameplan constructed over the course of time. I cannot reproduce this as i believe that online casino's have hammered themself in with all sorts of math and shit to protect their stealing business from people running away with too much money.
The quote i reffered to about the guy who lost 4x 300.000 euro was from someone working at a water company in Holland. He managed to commit fraude and booked himself 4x 300.000 euro onto his bank account. He blew all that pretty much away on online slots. If anyone had a bankrol of over 1.2 million euro woud'nt that give a straight fair chance at winning in millions as well?
No. And there was nobody from the online casino who asked or said, hey, this 300.000 euro that you've bin spending the last couple of weeks/months, is'nt that way out of your league? They dont give a rats ass! Sorry to tell you! Greedy business full class here. A landbased casino recently picked out a woman who was bragging about the access to alot of money she pretended to had. This money was from a care company since she was a director, and obviously not her money. The casino gave her a ban for at least a year, knowing this is a case that could lead into problems.
See the difference here? I can give a link or 10 or so with simular cases as well that the online business simply stinks. It's lose from your profession as a slot designer; you have the game provider licencing games from you or the business you are within. But this online casino needs a better regulation and not one with licences in country's that nobody ever heard of.
I'm sorry man. I'm no longer enjoying any of these stupid online slots. It seems like i'm playing not on a RNG system but on what i wager. My outcome seems like already determined the moment i depositted. Hows that even fair? Yeah their numbers are obviously crafted in such a way that it always seems right for the game provider and / or casino's yes. Player gets screwed anyway.
I'd advise anyone to head over to a local casino and give a try to there. Compare that to your online experiences. Even tho a lower RTP i'm pretty sure that the chances of winning big is equal or even better. And you can actually walk away with the advantage of having the money directly in your pocket vs 3 to 5 business days payout. Or whatever excuse they could think of to stall your payment this time ....
