New Slot Announcement Big Time Gaming - Who Wants To Be A Millionaire

[shadow123]

Worthy follow up to Donuts i think, what on earth are they on?
I think Blueprint did a really good job with Buffalo Rising, not perfect but you
can tell they spent a lot of time getting the gameplay right and it is a good implemention of multiways.
This heap of shite will be getting nothing off me.

 

[goatwack]

Yeah, I always felt that BTG were reliant on Bonanza's huge success with so many clones in such a short time.

They will come unstuck as you say unless they take their "Bonanza Blinkers" off.

WWTBAM could have been awesome, most ideas mentioned already but collectively a few in game mystery features, a lot more thought in to the gamble feature (maybe increase in 5's not 2's and have a shorter ladder) more than 8 scatters possible (make it rare but gives lucky player that day a good shove up the ladder) add some humour, think Dunover mentioned the Major coughing incident when hovering over right answer etc etc etc

Wasted licence IMO and think players will lose interest quick and stick with Bonanza.

Exactly, a missed opportunity. Just imagine BTG incorporated a coughing Hotmode or something

This contestant beta tested this game several years ago :-

 

[Broke]

MUST SEE, RECORD WIN, EPIC REACTION!!!!!!

I believe that is what they call a "balance saver".

 

[TheresNoDInBonanza]

So we can assume then that the ask the audience is the one no one wants, if you get this one don't pick the highest percentage answer.

Lol no. Pick the lowest each time and see how you go
People don't realise: 60% ain't a sure bet.

Yeah, it feels like a boring Bonanza sadly.

Did maybe 300-400 spins just now at Leovegas and got 2 bonus.
1 x50 was ok (10 spins) and the second i lost in the gambling.

They really should get rid of the losing part of the bonus.
If i get the bonus, i want to get a bonus, not nothing.
Thats just bad of them.

They need to change the sleepy music also.
Atleast Bonanza has a quick rhytm.

The base game is so boring i almost fell asleep.
They should put in some random feature that shows up every 20-50 spins atleast to make it more interesting.

Just like on Extra Chilli you can walk away with the 8 Free Spins. You don't have to gamble them. The ratio for getting from 8 to 10 is about the same as getting to the second level on Extra Chilli. I have the feeling it is about 40:60 for advance:loss.

 

[Harry_BKK]

It's like video game designers designing a template and using it for other games, just fleshing out different characters, environments etc

Like the Unreal engine , it was used for anything of note.

Anyone that thinks WWTBAM is a new concept developed from the ground up is sadly mistaken. In fact playing it, it's a lazy re-hash and missed opportunity (much like MG's GoT debacle)....things where you think 'Why'd they not use those sounds there' type thing.

And of course being the groundbreaking 'new' slot it claims to be, it's heartening to see losing cascades STILL have a 1-2 second lag. Top-notch programming, BTG

Said it from the start: WWTBAM is Extra Chilli on steroids as it is more volatile in the bonus gamble and you have 12 levels to get to the top. The base game is the same like EC and Bonanza, 50 - 70% RTP on average.

Now think of a normal pick-and-click bonus game with just 4 or 5 levels, e.g. Hugo, Blood Suckers II. How many times do you make it to the last level? Then add 8 or 7 levels to that and you get a feeling how difficult it will be to get to the 50FS. The chances reduce exponentially.

Those words alone make me . Aside from DHV the BTG's, I've not been enamoured by...normally an anti climax as much as Black Friday deals nowadays

 

[kretz1]

That's the BTG way for ya...
16000 bonuses will pay between 1x - 20x to get on person to hit a a 1000x+...

I've had once 2,1x bonanza bonus, over 30 times 200 x stake bonuses. Probably around 6 times 500 x stake bonuses. Once 1000x+
Done over 25,000 spins on that game. It's dogshite right now and has been for a longtime.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

10. Chopley will declare that he 'doesn't like it at all' then make a video in real play, and win.

I'll give it £100..... (Haven't deposited at Leo Vegas for a loooooooong time!)

This session will be recorded later on tonight and rather than dual-slot play I'll have the slot on one half of the screen and the Inetbet thread on the other, as I need to round off that story with its conclusion! And since WWTBAM is such a dull slot from what folks are saying, it'll be good to have something else going on.....

And if I don't hit at least 1000x stake I will be VERY UPSET

 

[CC07]

Decided to give it one more chance...got a bonus...didn't gamble... shouldn't have bothered

Quite some way off from being a millionaire there

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Yes but at least he got to want to be a millionaire.....

In fact, we could all just want to be a millionaire anyway, and save ourselves the trouble of playing the slot.

 

[goatwack]

Only way to be a millionaire is become part of BTG's payroll.

Even the teaboys have yachts

 

[shadow123]

Still want to know if the shown gamble odds are true or not, might sound naive but there is
nothing about it in the game info table.it does say what the best stratagy is but that doesnt mean
the odds are true.
For instance it advises the player to pick the highest percentage on ask the audience, if it shows 1%,10%,19%,70%
could the actual odds be something like 24%,24%,24%,28%, picking D would still have the best chance of success
as they stated but only just.Think it is quite important that this is clarified as it could be very deceptive and the players
decision to gamble or not would probably be based on what is shown

 

[kazzi]

Finally made it to the 20spins was amazing even got a retrigger so 24spins wow 10000x incomming WRONG! reached 9x and 20x win lol.......... just fells like extra chilli 75% deadspins most features.

Did get a 160x feature with 10spins atleast today.

 

[TheAddict]

Played my 2 spins from leo on this. Probably won't be back anytime this century.

I dont know how they have done it but i would guess it could be as simple as it picks a random number 1 - 100

with the above example shown above:-

1 = 1%
2-11 = 10%
12-30 = 19%
31-100 = 70% chance

with this if it picked number 9 then the 10% answer would be correct even tho the 70% answer clearly had the better chance, but thats how random stats work.

Still random, still fair, still as stated that the highest % had the best chance and therefore was " best strategy", but can still be incorrect.

On the face of it it looks like the 70% is a good bet but in fact you have a 30% chance of losing! eg 1 in 3 ish

TBH its how i would have done it as it would allow you to manipulate, control every stage / gamble % in a uniformed random, mathematical way factoring each gamble risk vs return of spins and in turn expected value.

The help file from BTG states, that the percentages only show the most probable outcome but it does not have to be true. Like in real, ask the audience or phone a friend can give you a pointer to the wrong answer.

I am pretty convinced, that the percentages are just arbitrary numbers and your real chance of advancing is actually calculated based on the RNG result pulled for the gamble.

 

[Aryol]

I wish BTG would be more creative with their new slots...Bonanza...Extra Chilli and now this. I also think that the chance to lose all free spins is not a player-friendly decision.

You don't need to gamble the initial 8 free spins. You can walk away just like on Extra Chilli.

Is it wrong that I expect to see a streamer get to 50 Free Spins and then for it to come out that the video was fake?

 

[dunover]

LOL...to get 50 free spins on the thing you'd need a team of hackers and graphic artists working feverishly during the stream.

 

[steveh35]

I wonder if BTG would really punish you if you got to 40 spins and gambled.

Tinfoilhat much, I thought you would be better than this..
