New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

[snorky510238]

I know it's an impossible ask but it's the same scenario as football fans and ticket prices. If all fans stuck together and boycotted games something would have to be done.The game is dependant on supporters. Likewise with casinos they rely on punters.What I would love is if everyone stuck together and vowed not to spend another penny on this and more importantly EXTRA CHILLI.Wouldn't you love to be a fly on wall on the day of release as they eagerly sit back and await the undoubted millions of pounds profit this game is going to make only to find not a single spin had been made.(l can dream).
On a more realistic note though I couldn't help but notice how fickle we are.I mean we have 200 pages here mostly of how we all think bonanza is rigged/broken/compensated etc yet there is already about six pages hailing chilli gold and its eagerly anticipated debut.By the time that has been out 6 months God knows how many pages of abuse we will see lol.
Being the sceptic I am I have to wonder why people think it will be any better(it's like getting on the wrong side of 1 of the Kray twins and deciding it would be a good idea to hang out with the other 1). I always look from the other side of the fence and if I had just created a multi million pound generating monster you bet your life I am going to make another.Would I make it any more generous or forgiving.What do you think?

 

[goatwack]

Well, there was a time not that long ago where Netent looked unstoppable. Then greed took over and they became complacent.....now they're a shadow of their former selves. The games became laughable CBBC clones, the paytables went to the dogs, the CEO got sacked and eventually went to win the £7.1 million Casumo jackpot

No one's going to boycott BTG, only they themselves will bring their fine run to an end. Might take a few years of rinsing players first, mind

 

[colinsunderland]

You'll be hard pressed with that one. They're too busy in photoshop creating megawin screenies of the new Chilli game to post to win their own competitions, and to tempt players to play more as obviously if it kicks out a 10000x bet for one plays, it can do it for all.

Best thing to do is not to feed the slot or BTG.......I like the the idea of liking the game but there's to much amiss with its funky patterns.

Vote with your wallet, cause that's the only message they'll understand. I don't know anyone that's played this at length and not got exasperated with it, eventually....

Fixed that for you mate

 

[goatwack]

Fixed that for you mate

I actually had to check my version again

But in fairness, yours is better

 

[slotmaster]

After another terrible start here weeeeeeeeeeeee go again with the luck turning around, Just hit 16 ways of red rubies on a $2.00 bet for $240 win!

 

[greylady]

My luck is like wham, bam, thank you mam

 

[dogshead1]

Say no more....

How many times we heard this, 1000 plus spins and less than 20x feature....RANDOM I say

 

[snorky510238]

We are told these games are rigorously tested and observed to make sure the maths etc is fair and above board.REALLY who checks them Stevie f+*^%=g Wonder.

Hit this monster yesterday.

It’s funny how the ultimate tilt..... Or so I thought was 12 dead spins, yet this rubbed that little bit of extra salt in the wound.

That is beyond low and really shocking but the sad part is that this is becoming more and more frequent - said it before, legalised robbery!

 

[interlog]

It gives shocking bonuses (I had a zero payer before!), but equally it can also dump a 1,000x win in the base game effortless. This is from somewhere else (not mine and not a streamers picture either )

Maybe so but how often?

All I know is it demolished my balance for five months, in which it gave one decent bonus round out of hundreds, only to start all over again taking it all back - there may a few but how many lose on this consistently to feed those lucky few wins?

 

[greylady]

I had about £3.80 cashback at Videolsots, just decided to get rid of it and yet another crap bonus round, five months of this

...and yes I have totally stopped depositing there.

You could have played any game on 20p stake with that balance and not triggered a feature.

 

[slotmaster]

200x on 22 spins just now.

800+ spins no bonus so far today. looking forward to my £3 trigger when it appears though!

Nooooo! Why are you playing it again?

It's not getting another penny from me, lost hundreds over five months and never going to get close to that back - the best you can do is stop playing it and never return to it again.

 

[nutnut]

Nutter

IDK. I had two good days winning a small amount with bonus money. Then I stupidly played it with real cash and last 3 days just gone to shit. My own fault.

Nooooo! Why are you playing it again?

Agreed.

Also I have proof it's stealing money. I will post tomorrow.

Basically when the game crashes(IT DOES IT SEVERAL TIMES A DAY). All though it pays the first win(when get several drops), the last win it didn't pay. I got a screenshot of a winning "spin" that was not credited. It's hard to explain, but when it recovers the spin it plays the first part you seen before its crashed but last part if it's a winning drop it doesn't credit the win or wipe away the win line which is reason it allowed me to screenshot the win without crediting the win.

So literally is a stealing bastard this slot!!

 

[Jono777]

Looking forward to this proof, no seriously

 

[nutnut]

actually here it is. Several times its stole the win when it crashes, first time i bothered to screenshot it.

 

[nutnut]

Before anyone says it's credit the win

1) that win amount at bottom was from first spin drop as it crashed, so that is 100% not from the red diamonds showing

2) If the win was counted why do diamonds still show?

3) I have witnessed this at least 4 times happen to me

 

[frogrest22]

Another 1000+ spins without a bonus. It is a baw hair away from going on the banned list!

 

[Greigssy]

I think BTG have left the office for the Easter holidays and left the bonus switched off on this slot, multiple sessions, thousands of spins over the past 24hrs and no bonus.

That being I said can't get a bonus round on Novamatics either, Netents are dishing out a sub 25% RTP and MG slots have been set to collect for the past 6 months.

 

[slotmaster]

OMG OMG OMG! JUST HIT OVER 800X! hit diamonds in free spins at 5x!

 

[Supababe]

Well our good friend has given my the highest of highs mid-week and low low nothing oh no for 48 hours.

Just over x1000


But then it’s only 4 days until the release of new chilli one. Obviously payouts can’t be altered at all (kappa) but can’t help wondering if they are busily priming the pots for the new game so we win to start and think it’s amazing.... hmmmmm.

 

[Supababe]

I'm calling out any BTG rep to have an input onto what is up with this slot? still constantly lagging, server errors and disconnections, disconnections and not return of bet. Piss poor RTP and so on and so o....................

I sent a nice and polite pm to the BTG man here about connection to server issues/ auto play = crash etc and haven’t heard a thing

 

[PMKFRUITPRO]

It’s got to the point now where I just simply can’t justify playing this anymore.

I’ve done tens of thousands of spins through this in the last couple of weeks and I’ve hit one feature at 120x and all the rest bar about an 80x have been between 1x and 30x.

Now based on the above I may just aswell have been rowing steam tower. The only difference being, that I would probably have hit at least 100 more bonuses and I’m sure I would have had the odd 100-200x.

For some reason and I don’t know why I’ve been sucked into this slot. If I was explaining my stupidity with regards to this slot to any rational human being who hadn’t seen a Dunover video they’d be questioning my sanity.

I mean why play a slot that promises so much but yet delivers so little.

There isn’t a single slot out there that can consistently take 1000+ spins to hit a bonus that on average hits around about the 30X mark. I mean think about it........ what other slot extracts the urine so much to give a bonus that is capable of nothing? And does this on a regular basis????? I don’t think there is one is there?

I must have played quarter of a million spins absolute minimum through this and yet hit 420X once as my highest ever hit. Just that stat alone should be enough to never play again.

I guess the reason why I carry on is because I dream of something that is unlikely to happen in another 5 million spins. Whilst I appreciate the base turnover is reasonable............. But so is jack and the beanstalk.

I keep thinking just give me a hit so I can never play again, yet I’m still waiting.

And on another note why is it that when u get the maximum ways, 99 times out of a hundred there isn’t a win there? Combined odds of that????? Over and over again? It’s a deliberate middle finger put in on purpose in my opinion.

 

[Jd666]

Well blow me down.
Just got the bonus with two retriggers for 207x
Only took me over 1500 spins to get it

 

[Jd666]

And how its playing now, anyone would think I just had a 2000x out of it.
Sod this.

 

[snorky510238]

It does make you think who passed this slot off as fair and legitimate.The problem I think is even if it was found to be faulty it's a can of worms that could never be opened.I may be wrong it's just a view to ponder.

 

[nutnut]

after last nights session which ran until early hours. I have lost the sanity.

luckily no more funds to gamble so few days cooling off and can laugh at myself for ever going back too it

 

[greylady]

Food for thought as an intellectual academic said to me not so long ago when I questioned the randomness of slots - if it's programmed by man, do you not think it is logical that it is controlled by man - nothing is infallible

My sessions on it have been the same.I have no doubt these slots are tampered with on a daily basis.When it was relatively new you would see the odd +5 here and there x200 wins now and again but now it seems like your being screwed to the max.I haven't had a x250 in the last month and only 2 +5s so somethings changed.

exactly. i had lots of down to £1 upto £15. but the bonuses(rare as fuck) paid £3 to £5 EVERYTIME. just constant losing £5 deposits that spiral to nearly 200 before you know it. slot is ridiculous

Are you playing at VS? I just find that it plays totally different for me on there than any other site. Never had a retrigger once over thousands and thousands of spins, and I can't recall even having a +5 but i do notice how it never gives a bonus but continually runs me down to give me a wee win to run me down and so the cycle starts again until it gets it's RTP.

......or maybe it is just my on-going bad play there

I play it at quite a few different sites and it doesn't seem to matter which 1 the results seem the same.

Horrid yesterday. Amazing today as long as you walk away after the ‘honeymoon period’ so I found out x

 

[johnnymcc1966]

Great timing.

Who sent you? PR department?

You know, if I was cynical I'd say that screenshot was almost too conveniently timed, given how the game's being slagged off.

Just as well I'm not the cynical type

Just to add that my results on this slot over the past couple of months or so have been horrendous.This is by far the biggest win I have ever had on Bonanza both by x amount and monetary value. I had x3 of £1.68 recently and just one of £12 two days ago. My biggest wins since this have been around x150-175 on £1 stakes. It's a love hate relationship with this game. I get more bonuses on this game than Danger High Voltage,which I find almost impossible to bonus,but the payouts on Bonanza are largely cr@p.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Here's my take on Bonanza.

PLEASE NOTE - There is a commentary maths error at 26m57s and 28m11s, the correct figure is £9,600,000 and not £9,960,000. I only noticed this after I'd finished editing the video together, rendered it out, and kicked off the upload. (Small sherries had been consumed at the time of filming.)

That is a great, objective synopsis of this game

Most that have played it for too long have become somewhat blinded by its empty promises. In the cold light of day, it really is just a badly- designed, high variance monster.

I agreed with pretty much every point, especially the often- overlooked balance- to- stake ratio, or the fact that even making small deposits isn't going to benefit low rollers as it's just too greedy.

And yes, I do believe many players are coming to the end of the line with it. It's the usual cycle: hype, fascination, early promise, abject disappointment, feeling cheated

 

[interlog]

I agree with that video to an extend. However, if you compare the base game of Bonanza to Dead or Alive, I rather watch Bonanza's base game. You never know what you are going to get whilst with Dead or Alive you know the limitations of the base game - the max it will ever pay is the double sheriff star win. With Bonanza, the variation and with it the potential is so much higher.

What's wrong with limitations

DOA is like comfort food or watching a cheesy '80s classic film. You know what you're going to get but enjoy it anyway

With Bonanza you're constantly on edge, not with excitement. And if you do get that wonder- hit in the basegame you may as well pop out to the shops because the next 300 spins will be 'somewhat below par'. Without fail. Now that's predictable

 

[Jono777]

Can see both points, if I had to choose, I'd have to vote DoA (even though over the month's Bonanza hasn't been particularly bad to me (touch wood))

Least with DoA, there is very rarely the super long wait for a bonus round(s) even if it does pay piss poor, at least I got a "chance"

Now if the 'D' was a bit more forthcoming, I feel it would be (despite their huge differences in mechanics) a very even balance.

 

[greylady]

It is cleverly designed I admit but (for me anyway) the main RTP is coming from the base game, small consistent wins that do not make it worthwhile withdrawing and then it goes in for the kill like lightening totally depleting your balance - five months of playing this slot and I don't even want to think about how much I am down but I do know I am done with it!

 

[goatwack]

I just can't fathom how most of us have been beaten down into thinking 500-1000 spins for a bonus is acceptable in any form. Especially given that they play out like most other slot bonuses 99% of the time. There isn't even a feature guarantee after all that suffering!

I recall how we'd all moan about how slots would bonus a bit longer than the average 150 spins or so, or how DOA would be a bastard. Nothing like this game though. Ahh the good old days

There's no way we should allow BTG to make this 'the norm'. Even with Extra Chilly the hit frequency is one in 230 and we're supposed to be happy with that.....except the bonus has been gimped and the they still try to claw those back via the gamble wheel

Slot design needs a major revamp, because this is not the way forward

My average is 2138 on Videoslots, not 500-1000!

 

[zap987]

Not sure how people can think Bonanza is high variance, it's really quite low. What it does have is potential to give some huge wins but their effect on rtp is tiny since they are so rare. Almost all of the rtp comes from small to medium wins, there is a reason people choose to play this game for wagering.
