Cosmic Fortune Slot (NetEnt)

[syntynyt]

What you saw was just "eye candy" - the same as on hundreds of other video slots. Do you think that if you play Mega-Moolah and the wheel stops on the section next to the top jackpot that you REALLY only just missed it?
Spinning wheels, Picking Bonuses, Bouncing Balls - none of them are truly random as displayed - they just graphically display the outcome that the game's software has already decided the moment the bonus feature is won.

KK

im very aware of the phenomenon. at least at other slots wheel will not stop on mega jackpot, just to rethink the decision and walk a bit more. last needed ball to won jackpot fell right in the middle of midi, not on the edge. hole was plugged, ball continuing slowly to move. it was unbelievable. i call this 'spit in the eye' instead of 'eye candy'. i give the benefit of the doubt of the other two balls which fell on a edge only to walk to the other edge, maybe poor 2D design, jackpot object looking like a toilet in front of medium sized dog, seeing only one edge when in fact these jackpot object may be circular like a toilet from upfront. but that ball alone was enough to put rigged sign on this slot. in 2014 after a successful history they release this. no respect for this company, scourge of all legit providers. design is better, ideas are awesome yet the important parts, gameplay, paytable, balance maintenance are worse than ever. now fooling factor was added. what do they think?

I think the slot is alright

Had 50 balls in the jackpot game round was quite interesting and exciting but yeah just bout no wins as I had that big hit in main free falls. But managed to get 39 collected which then qualified me for jackpot bonus game. But I don't understand why I got 50 balls what decides how many you have in jackpot round?

One strange thing I noticed while playing at MrGreen though was that Rapid and Minor did not change at all for at least 4-5 hours Seems very strange almost like we cant win those jackpots now and think they might have messed something up.

Only Mega, Major and Midi are progressive jackpots

When playing in EUR, Rapid and Mini are always worth €100 and €500.

You are not crazy! I saw it too - on the midi jackpot.

syntynyt just a good advice you might want to remove that avatar? I personally disgust it and think its worse than silly. But you might also get a lawsuit on you if I was NetEnt. Just a friendly advise mate.

And now we are at personally I find all this moaning against NetEnt strange as we all know slots are random. Heck we have seen many crazy great wins on most of NetEnt slots. It is the same thing with just bout all Software providers. Some win some lose but you can get that big crazy win at them all does not matter if NetEnt, Microgaming even RTG etc. and yes you can also fire up the wrong slot at the wrong time and it sucks u dry. Again does not matter all slot are setup at their RTP just IMHO.

this coming from an netent affiliate i understand your disgust. it's my public protest against them for these practices and based on my wide personal experiences. we are not enough advanced technologically to connect an USB to my brain and transfer all netent memory data to justify this avatar, but for that ball is enough though. lawsuit for calling their games awful? where, in USSR? of course if ill be asked by moderation team of this forum i will change it but in my pov no damage is done, just my protest against them.

 

[dave1888]

I have zero complaints about this new addition apart from slow loading up times on my piss poor computer ! I think is a completely different jackpot slot than anything else netent have had and am impressed with the base game returns every set of free rounds I have won something! The most being 4.54,3.15 and 2.85(5 free rounds)! Can't wait to have a real stab at this game with my own cash see what it is made of in a long haul session

Sorry to disappoint you but I am not an netent affiliate LOL but nevermind. But yeah see what you mean would be bit different it you were doing propaganda against them with a website and putting it up there. And yes it is only an Avatar end of the day. I just took it bit the wrong bad way mate. No reason to call me netent affilaite either I promote the Casinos I see as the best ones and of course they offer netent games they all do but also lot other software providers.

It seems to me it is okay throwing out those features and it is not one that makes you go broke quick. I found it giving lot of playtime but need those 5OAK to get anything worth it

also here is a story from 2012 at a land based sport agency. we can bet live on horse and pitbull races. it takes 1 minute to finish and you must bet quite large for a good outcome. one guy has bet on a pitbull race on a particular dog and won, his slection was first to complete the race, clearly shown live at tv and far from other dogs. but at cashier his ticket was loser, oficially based on computer results another dog winning the race. 'spit in the eye' type of race. somewhere someone has bet a lot and they manipulated the result. he was robbed and he was right, i was there and could not believe that they just did that at a televised race. he wasn't able to take at least refund of the ticket, quite large. i feel the same after watching crystal clear ball falling in hole, only to act like there was no hole. this is robbery masked in a game, i should have now 800 pounds in my wallet now because happened 2 days ago, if the game was random and truly legit. now seeing Operette confirming MIDI object behavior, nothing much to add. i feel that more similar cases will surface in the following period.

paaske i called you netent affiliate as i see on website netent casinos. this was not a sort of insult or something. if you think my avatar will scare people to sign up and play you are wrong, if that is the reason of your request. but put yourself in my shoes, is nothing else i can do other than stop playing netent games and protest for a period because 'wounds' are open.

had two goes

had a feature both times first one 30 euro cents paid less than 10 times bet
2nd one 75 aud cent a spin got the extra bonus and all up got $10 this was a 4 scatter trigger such a joke this thing

after having a play around on a few casinos one thing i cant understand is how the mega and major jackpots are different at different casinos i thought they were linked progressives, i know the rapid and mini are local and fixed at the €100 and €500 or equivalent currencies but i honestly though the mega had been won when swapping from one casinos to another,

as an example taken in the last 10 minutes .

betsafe have mega at £8.3k , Major at 1k
mr smith have mega at £170k , Major at 42k..
leovegas mega is 25k, Major at 1.6k
betsson mega 5.3k, Major 1.6k

i dont tend to pay much attention to jackpot slots but i presumed the mega would be identical at all casinos..

Chronic Misfortune (as Dunover has so aptly named it )

100 Features in free play It doesn't seem like it's possible to win a jackpot in free play so i have no idea how rare they are.
Old Attachment (Invalid)

No wins over 100x in the base game

 

[BoomUp]

is it posssible to win a jackpot using free spins ?
i ask because i read once that it is not possible to win it on mega fortune etc..

Did you record how many spins you played in total?
i.e. What are the odds of triggering the free-spins?

Great info, as always!

All of the three progressive jackpots are local, but casinos on the same platform may have identical jackpots, like for example NextCasino and CasinoLuck.

By the way. I noticed earlier today that the Mega jackpot on Cosmic Fortune at CasinoEuro and Mr Smith is worth €214 000, which I think is pretty huge for this game.

The jackpot at Unibet is worth even more - about €225 000.

My guess is that it is not possible to win any of the progressive jackpots when playing with free game rounds given out by casinos (free spins). Not sure about the fixed ones.

Maybe one of the reps can clarify.

No sorry, i had Four windows running at 5x speed and sometimes they crash so i don't know how many spins i played.

I wish i knew how to automatically log every spin, but i don't so i only put them on autoplay with a stop trigger for free spins and 100xBet and write down the results.

 

[randomiam]

now ive given it a fair run

3 casinos had the 10 free spins the 15 and 25
first set of spins balls don't really matter once you get over over about 30 balls i had 100 and all those extras only scored me another $3 on my 30 cent bet
When you go into the second round you always have 50 balls no matter what the triggering amount or scatters was.
Like other people have said the "plugged"hole comes up alot it can be right over the hole and just fall of the edge.
Win wise i managed to get second top prize of 1000 credits "20 euro"once in base game that's less than 100 times bet.
Most features my win was around 400 to 600 credits this is out of about 25 features mabye one paid 200 credits higher but nothing over 100 times bet.
its min bet in euro is 30 and 75 in aud.
all up im not impressed with this game very much the obvious rigged balls falling off plugged holes was such a let down.
Only once managed to get my balance above my start balance by getting alot of features quickly.

A rep from Netent?

What with the rigged jackpot games, I would like a Netent rep to explain this one.

 

[Zabier]

I'm not saying it has been rigged but from a business point of view it would make sense for them to tighten it up after it was released a bit loose. Maybe that will change in the future when their losses have been recouped? Punishing the players for their own mistakes would be a bit harsh though.

 

[Operette]

True, but...

I am trying to be fair here. Surely they read our posts?

 

[Wild Reels]

im not quite sure why people are up in arms over the "rigged" jackpot games, it really is just a visual representation of whether you've won or lost, and as far as i am concerned that decision has already been decided as soon as you click the start button, it doesn't matter if a ball does 3 rotations round the screen, bounces up and down on a peg thirty times or whatever, you've either won a jackpot or you haven't and like it not the outcome has already been decided,

maybe they need to improve that round so its visually better so players do not feel cheated.., or just replace it with a mega fortune wheel, as no-one complains about a wheel that stops on a mega jackpot once every few months, or maybe they do , because if it was just a random symbol on a wheel it would be won much quicker than it is currently...

 

[Operette]

A wheel would be good, good idea. It's just that a lot of people are complaining about that feature, and Netent can loose players. Not that it is my problem...
Let's say that I am playing poker, and someone accuses me of cheating. I would gladly strip naked to show that I am not hiding aces in my clothes.

And I bet that many of us woud like to know what really happened on the Black Wednesday. There are conspiracy theories - such as "The Disgruntled Employee".
