New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

[sufferinsilence]

FFS 27 spins for 16x bet. And the sad thing is it is not that big a surprise.

423 pages in and people are still playing the slot hoping for a life changing win that is yet to happen.

To be fair, a life changing win isn't going to happen on the stakes most of us play. Even if you'd get 5000x on 60c that's far from life changing. And that goes for most slots. Sure, a 25000x on DOA II on 45c might have more of an impact on your life but the likelihood of hitting that is probably as low as getting that 5000x on Bonanza and the DOA II basegame will have gobbled up more of your money because of the basegame being pretty sad.

Life changing wins only happen to Swedish housewifes that just signed up to a casino and started spinning on Mega Moolah while sitting on the toilet

Okay lol i was exaggerating when i said life changing win. I will rephrase it as a hit of a lifetime multiplier wise .

Bonanza... the Great BTG Heist...

This slot will go down as the mother of all heists... fuck me.. BTG are true geniuses.

Are you guys sure they are not Nigerian?

 

[goatwack]

Not one person on this accursed thread has come out on top with Bonanza, at least we all have that in common

Hmmm fools and their money being easily parted springs to mind but then that's up them.

 

[TheAddict]

The determination by some is fairly admirable in a way, given the prolonged torture they often speak of just to see the D.


Please gamble responsibly. Gambling is highly addictive.

Noticed Tirilej ain't been about in a while, hope she didn't hit the mega moolah only to stay put on the toilet blowing it all back into this one.
on a serious note, do hope she is doing ok like.

 

[dutchyboy]

Also hit a bonus tonight with +5 for 17 spins. Then first spin retrigger so 22 spins.
Got excited for nothing, only dead spin after dead spin.
Got 12x in 22 spins.

Starting to hate this game too considering how many spins it takes to even get a bonus.

 

[Gaz237]

I think you'll like this - the best BGT yet?

Great FS set-up.

First post in the thread, 423 pages ago.

Little did we know then about how destructive it can be to some players.

 

[pinnit2014]

Best of tonight...500...no NOT X but still take it from a 50 depo.

Now, running away. Cos that's nearly 2k in 24hrs. And we all know Bonanza is compens...Jono, want to finish the sentence?

Dunno what it takes to get a 500x - probably a x28

 

[mikeMega]

I've had one whole 'session' on Bonanza in dozens of sessions. ONE.

Its greatest trick is making one believe it'll come good the longer it's played. This is a lie. It's a hit & run slot that should have no more than between 11 - 47 spins run through it at a time

11=47 spins? your autoplay options must be different to mine

 

[pinnit2014]

11=47 spins? your autoplay options must be different to mine

Not all Bonanza's have autoplay

Incidentally, when it doesn't, it's normal, loving and joyful experience of being battered in the crotch with a bag of pool balls, is magnified.

i got a bonus last night went and made a cup of tea came back was logged out logged back in now get error message 212 tried again today same thing spoke to live chat casino is waiting for a response from big time gaming any thoughts?

Yeah BTG were too embarassed to let you see that you got 3 retriggers and it still only paid 5x bet so they disabled it .

Seriously tho support should be able to get game working through BTG as this happens often. Worst provider out for errors i have had games constantly unplayable at different sites and any time i try open them i get error loading game mesaage. White Rabbit has been like that at WH for over a year now just not worth hassle of getting it working yet again.

Just hope they can get it working again with bonus round still there.

 

[snorky510238]

Yeah casinos are losing out through these errors. I have stopped playing at quite a few due to Btg games not loading. It has been an ongoing issue for ages. Why doesn’t it get sorted?

 

[Reelsoffun]

Not just BTG to be fair Its a more common issue than you think, I still have a broken game on VS ( rise of anubis ) that's been like it over 6 months now, despite they telling me it was fixed by the provider and my bonus game round was voided with no funds being credited. I had already told them that it was account specific as its loads on other sites, but no browser or PC on my VS account will let it load. I was gonna try from my mates PC when im round there next but didnt want to risk it in case VS block my account for logging on an IP where he has an account too, as someone on here posted that it was a problem doing that, which is a shame as we often have a flutter when we round each others houses.

I gave up in the end and just don't play it anymore anywhere.

 

[snorky510238]

I can’t load any Netent games at Casumo. It happened before for a while then cured now back to same. Load Boaw at Dunder and I get this.

Can’t load the game at all at Rizk which I told them about 6 months ago. Why is it the first few spins on Btg games are so laggy and if you don’t get disconnected it eventually speeds up to normal but sometimes crackles for the whole session like an old 33 record. Very frustrating and spoils the enjoyment. It’s also noticeable how many times disconnections happen when entering the bonus round with Btg. Almost like your being transferred to another rng or something.

 

[nutnut]

betfair now have bonanza. it's like a plague itS everywhere.

Unlimited multiplier with a capped max win. Not that it’s likely to be hit but even so.

Well the 15,000x is simply a guess as they have to put something there. They don't know. Removed links to external aff site too. The name of the site with no links would have been sufficient to state your source. Thanks.

 

[nutnut]

x15000?

try producing a few x5000 or even x3000 wins before worrying about hitting a max x15,000 payout.

 

[pinnit2014]

Totally agree with the 15000x

If you remove the 1 and 0 at either end.

 

[Jono777]

Very generous of you

LOL...when I do reviews on my Megaways page I simply put the max win as (say Primal Megaways) 50,000x plus. I don't know this and it's also capped anyway but if you remember my demo screenie of 51,000-odd x I know it's possible. I reckon the author simply hoiked out the best ever win on it (14,400-odd x) and simply used that as a guess point, same as what most reviewers do, unless as with Push Gaming's latest slot there's a specific mention in the rules...

 

[dunover]

To be fair I did hit my infamous Freaky Vegas win of 3628x at £2 on it. Would love to see 5,000x one day.

 

[mikeMega]

Big Time Gaming is like that poop you've been holding in for 40 miles down the motorway....a big load of predictable pre determined crap!

 

[dionysus]

predictable; sort of, in big wins are rare and smaller more common
pre-determined, nope

 

[nutnut]

Those bonus rounds are predetermined. I will never believe otherwise, the base game is random. It's one game you could be down to a pound and hit a x500.

But these bonus rounds are capped and 1000% predetermined.

 

[dionysus]

and yet...you still play

 

[pinnit2014]

I certainly don’t think each spin in the bonus round is random/separate (as BTG said it is) after my frozen game and the total win from all 12 spins showing, without a spin being spun

 

[dionysus]

but that isnt an indocator of it being non-random; that's an indicator spins are grabbed en masse
any red tiger game will do the same
but @trancemonkey - though he has multiple times - is best at explianing this

no biggie - was just a heads-up in case ya didnt know

 

[PMKFRUITPRO]

I’ve said before that if you deposit during a BASE game cascade series then your balance is updated before the cascading win is finished. This obv means that the cascades are not an independent call to the RNG.

Simple way to find out. Next time I get a bonus I’ll deposit. See what it says.

 

[nutnut]

and yet...you still play

Whether it's pre-determined, or not is not the issue. Slots are rigged to make you lose, so yes of course I and other still play. Just because it's not pre-determined, doesn't make it any better in the raw sense. I'm just saying I have played this game enough to know it's not random the bonus rounds.

The majority of slots are all pre-determined, so that is not my issue, it's the fact BGT claims each spin on the bonus is independent I do not believe him.

 

[dionysus]

but whether each spin is drawn inedpendently or in bundles is irrelevant - it doesnt affect the randomness of the draw
and of course slots are DESIGNED to make you lose, there's more returns/outcomes of less your bet than not; this isnt any sort of secret

I think DreamRJ had a stuck bonus round on White Rabbit and it was throwing out different (overall) wins each time he went to play the bonus round (which appears to be the opposite of my one with Bonanza)

 

[pinnit2014]

Curse ye...6OAK diamonds but only on a x2 in the bonus :machinegunner:

 

[snorky510238]

The second you press spin the game knows what your return is ie lose/£2.40/£7.09/£23.20 etc. The game then just provides the eye candy in whatever format to produce that total. I will never see it any other way.

And that's fine, but you are 100% wrong. Unless you're telling me that all the code I wrote and maths I've done/do, are all bullshit and I am living a lie?!

 

[brianmon]

And that's fine, but you are 100% wrong. Unless you're telling me that all the code I wrote and maths I've done/do, are all bullshit and I am living a lie?!

But there could be a database of predetermined sequences (as in Jamin' Jars) for the free spins. Randomly selected, of course.

As you've said before, some complex games need such a system. It's one thing having the base game running on individual RNG calls.
But when there are multipliers in operation, as in the free spins. Wouldn't it make sense to have some kind of control?

 

[snorky510238]

If all the spins are individually selected as the bonus progresses how did @pinnit2014 see the result of his round before it was played? Unless they are all randomly selected at the moment the bonus is triggered. In which case the end result is already known. It has still been randomly selected but it’s not as Btg say it happens.

In bonus rounds such as Montezuma the result although not known as in a specific total, after 2 reels land you know if it’s a win/lose or retrigger. Yes it could be lazy programming or that it is displaying the result it has drawn prematurely but it could also be that it’s predetermined.

 

[Jono777]

and yet...you still play

Just because they're pre-determined, wouldn't stop you playing would it?

FWIW, I think all bonus rounds in all slots are set this way and yet I played 16 years....

Pre-determined can still mean next 3 bonuses pay me 400x, 350x and 500x which is all good in my book

Server result = 400x win - display via bonus round
server result = lose
server result = 300x win - display via base game

x100,000,000.......

 

[mack341]

it's the blocking symbols that get me, as there would have to be odds for each symbol to land in the place that it does, a bogus diamond in rhino on reel 1 when you've got a pair of multiplying wilds so that there is one less payout, to me it's too convenient so I think in the rhino bonus it arranges the screen to suit the win, but the result is still random.

 

[Jono777]

And that's fine, but you are 100% wrong. Unless you're telling me that all the code I wrote and maths I've done/do, are all bullshit and I am living a lie?!

You know I respect and believe every word you say, always have done, always will do.

However you do not work for BTG mate, so a question rather than an accusation, could your statements be not applicable to their way of doing things??

 

[Jono777]

...also FWIW, Williams/SG bonuses are pre-determined also, before this HTML5 changeover, you could close the bonus at any point and reopen it a day later and all spins would play out the same from the trigger of the bonus.

Yes, you're right .. they could select from a huge set of predetermined free game features. And there are many methods of "control" we can do in free games that still do not require predetermination, rigging, control, compensation or the like.
