New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

[snorky510238]

There is one on YT, red gems for 5100x or something in the FS. That's the only one I am aware of aside from the fabled, legendary 14400x. And that's what strikes me as exceedingly odd about the whole thing - there should have been, by way of the FS mechanic, sheer weight of player spins, randomness and game maths at least several others by now in the last 5 years between those figures of say 7340, or 9000x, 11,456x etc.

The longer we go without seeing anything near the 14400x the more it seems like a statistical aberration.

How many bonuses do you think you clocked up Daz?

How many bonuses do you think you clocked up Daz?

Literally thousands. 3628x being the highest. I think 3556x, second, 2500-ishx third best and quite a few over 1000x. Nothing ever near 5000x though, let alone 14400x.

 

[snorky510238]

So it’s probably fair to say, that between all the posters on here we have probably gone through 50,000 bonus rounds all told and nobody has hit over x5,000.

Should probably check when DHV had it's 'sound' effects updated - wasn't that uncommon to get the x33 or above with some 10's or Q's in the bonus (across all reels) for a decent hit: twice in the last month i've had 15 spins with, not just no win, but also with no ladder.

X hit wise Lil Devil's maybe your best bet (not played in a while): had high hopes for Wild Flower but it's all fluff.

 

[gonzo fonso]

my RTP at videoslots is 90.53% been playing there about 4 years,maybe deposit once every 2-3 weeks,i can count on one hand the amount of cash outs ive had there,yes i expect that one time i will have a great session,thats the only reason i still play there

Just to let you know, if you check my YT, there's a DHV Megapays on the way with the BTG progressive jackpots integrated.

Oh Goody,

Another money gobbler. Probably running 92% RTP to cater for those Jackpots?

Nate

 

[pinnit2014]

Hearing that fills me with as much joy as the time i got a call from the GP asking me did i have the contact details of previous partners

(though, remembering 2 numbers wasn't such a big deal)

Nate

Nah, same 96.18-39% RTP but with 9.44% JP contributions.

 

[paul7388]

So would that not make the slot run at about 87%RTP which is much worse than 92%

That's about where most providers want to actually be these days.

Not for any length of time, as even on lower stakes the mini jackpot is quite frequent, or frequent enough to avoid 87% for the long term, unless very unfortunate. To that end, of the 9.44% I believe the highest part goes into the mini. I suppose you have to view it like the FS on the normal version - 25% of RTP is in the FS, 71% base game so unless you hit the feature that's all you'll get, but the feature pays in such a way that you would be unfortunate not to get at least something back from that 25% pool too.

Could worse, could be the terrible Mega Moolah ones where the base game is around 88-90% inclusive of the JP, or even a Betsoft slot where any jackpot win exceeding peanuts is immediately a 'software error'....

Still runs at about 87% tho not including Jackpots.

So unless you are hitting the Jackpots you would be playing a 87% slot. Alright saying they land frequent but it is a BTG slot where even on 96% you can play for ages and never even hit the free spins let alone stand a chance of a jackpot.

Well Mr. D, for some context.

I regularly check the big wins on The Bandit's website. The last time a 5000x win on Bonanza was posted there was on 4th April....2019.
The win was 5500x, from a bog standard GOLD trigger with no extra scatters.

There was another 5000x win posted in January 2019. Again around 5500x

But the biggest win I ever saw on Bandit's site was 9060x.....it was posted in February 2018.

The only other Bonanza win I can think of that broke 5000x was the one where a CM member posted a win of over 6000x
to win that BTG comp that was held quite some time ago, possibly pre-Covid?

 

[Reelsoffun]

Just goes to show how people run on games, I have played over 2 million spins had thousands of bonuses over 3500 actually and not had one over 1000x Yet my mate has played far less, had several over 1000x and one of just shy of 2600x

 

[goatwack]

Yes, amazing how much more gracious Bonanza is when first playing it, almost as if to lure players in and paint a false picture, and as the first few forays into this thread indicate.

Then one starts believing in this game's next big win being attainable, and so begins the pursuit. That's before the game kicks into 'Special Mode' and strings you along in the most appalling way, because surely it's all random, and droughts like this are the exception, not the norm, right?

But no, players continue to seek out 'teh potenshull' as though the game's in any mood to bestow that upon regular players

(even though statistically massive wins in excess of 10,000 should not be an anomaly given the huge player base)....

Perhaps the greatest slotting con in history? decide for yourself. Or just keep feeding the game. Either/ Or

 

[gonzo fonso]

got my money back last night from losing at videoslots,only one bonus but it paid

 

[pinnit2014]

Decent base game hit last night. -sea of rubies but only one D near the end. Took out what i put in so there is that, but hardly a great advert

Guesstimate wise, probably need 80 bonus's to hit that X win in the bonus, with a x16 multi with 27 spins

 

[pinnit2014]

It is a game on its arse - agree that even in it's hay-day it could be grim; wasn't all 500x bonus's etc but can recant tales of meeting 7k wagering, doing 2-4 quid spins for a few k cash outs just from base game hits. Not so much now.

Up until last year i was probably 80% on Bonanza, now probably 1/2 that - still like/love the game (despite the Spock like logic telling me i am insane) but it's on it's way to becoming a TS2/Immortal Romance memory: a love affair i'll remember but not that willing to rekindle.

Cold hard stats, like Dunover who's had better hits than me, are its greatest enemy.

 

[gonzo fonso]

that is a beautiful base game hit,i think my best is about 300-400x ever,ive read here that people have had 2000x base game hits well that must be a lot of diamonds to pay that amount

 

[snorky510238]

If we’re honest, the game is beyond unplayable. How they can gimp the base and the bonus rounds as dramatically as they have WITH NO REPERCUSSIONS is beyond me. Just shows these providers and casinos are untouchable because this game is running at about 80% rtp, I assure you.

 

[gonzo fonso]

i do not know what it is,i think all slots these days are tighter,or is it a bit of when slots have been released/new they pay bigger in the first few months or more frequently ? that dead or alive ll is for sure nowhere near what it was less bonuses these days

with bonanza in the bonus well it never really shows its true potential,WWTBAM well if you get all the ways in the bonus a high chance of hitting massive,ive played these 2 slots alot and my biggest wins have been on WWTBAM but we all love bonanza thats why we keep playing itenjoy it while we can all good things come to an end

People play these slots more when they are released. More screenshots more big wins more rounds.
I don't know about other licenses but MGA gives certificate to every release before they are on the market.
If provider want's to make some bigger changes like changing volatility it sounds like such a big change what needs a new certificate.

I guess providers won't do this and that's why claims like this are mostly a common misconception. Just my opinion

i understand your point and yes some truth in that,in a nutshell most slots now have lower RTP so that in itself says everything,its said that BTG has no different maths model on its slots,just seems funny that on videoslots and mr vegas it plays awful always
