Getting a bit of a joke now

[Don't be rigged now]

100 spins on goonies paid 0 not a single win of any kind? I know this game has been adjusted since launch but my god not to this level

100 spins on napolean biggest win 5x - understandable can be extremely volitile

100 spins on cops n robbers millionaires row biggest win 4x usually good for a feature or 2

on the brink of giving it up with play like this

 

[Jono777]

could change the names of those games to pretty much anything these days, its that bad, not to mention predictable .

 

[mina1929]

I think the Corona has affected most of the slots as well, they're not healthy at all

 

[slotmaster]

While o.p. is playing the worst games I do agree that it is more awful than good on slots. My last few screenshots were the 1st time I doubled my starting bankroll in months (I think, it sure feels like that long). It's not the same as it was just a few years ago.

 

[slotmaster]

By the way it was just on the news last week that it was a record-breaking quarter for online gambling, $400 million.

 

[dealer wins]

There is no way that 100 spins on goonies would all be total losers. No chance.

Care to recommend some good games? I’m intrigued

2 that are still up there in volatility is Gonzo's quest mega ways and pink elephants, I do like Flowers as it gives you more smaller wins but I have one of my biggest hits on it, Electric Avenue can go on a roll for small to medium size hits and help the balance.

I do mostly play right now Razor Shark and dead or alive but they can eat balances fast.

 

[goatwack]

They've all become equally shite in tandem, to the point of barely being able to get ahead at all.

Even the supposed 'lower-variance' tripe have flattered to deceive, eg small example being Peacock Manor - that game used to give out wins like they're candy, now it's become like pulling teeth. MG 9-liners, you name it, all equally borked.

Which given the recent spate of 'RTP-tightening' evident everywhere doesn't surprise me in the slightest - they've all been nerfed.

So it's at that point where the only viable game left would have been DOA, but seemingly that's playing worse than at any time I remember!

But hey, just as well I'm not gambling at present, I've cut my play right down to once monthly because of this 'unfortunate' set of coincidences. The writing's been on the wall for quite some time with these companies, if people are happy to have the piss taken out of them by all means do 'you'

 

[colinsunderland]

I've cut my play down quite a bit too recently, becoming a bit sick of the clearly false claims made by slot providers about Max payouts etc. Would love to see how many people worldwide have ever hit a Pragmatic Play max win for example, bet it wouldn't be many.

Agree.
Pragmatic play and Thunderkick is imo the worst when it comes to that.
Advertising crazy x bet wins, but never deliver more than 5-10% of the numbers advertised, if even that.

I mean, getting only 10% of the supposed max win no Peking luck would still be 18 000x.
Makes you wonder how many billions if not trillions of spins they had to simulate before coming up with the numbers for their max win.

Same thing with slots like Carnival queen and Riders of the storm.
Dont remember the exact numbers for those, but i think both are over 20 000x for the max win.
Yeah, good luck getting more than 5-10% of that.

 

[Kroffe]

A bird whispered in my ear that they don even have to prove the advertised max stake win in simulations.
Its enough that the math model supports it, so it can be purely theoretical.
So even if the max win they hit making 100 billion spins in simulations is 5000x they are allowed to advertise 100 000x if the slot is supposed to be able to hit that in theory.

Doa2 being capped at €9 while Peking luck allows me to bet €50 pretty much says it all.
They are not worried about anyone hitting that ever.

Well if we are talking about potential wins and false advertising there is a new exclusive slot at slot at PP called Genie Jackpots wishmaker.

Help file clearly states . Your wish for an exciting five-reel slot with wins of up to 10,000x has been granted by Blueprint Gaming.

Fair enough. Go to the free spins Genie wild storm feature where at end of free spins all places that had wilds land turn into wilds with multipliers up to 5x. Again looks okay. But it clearly states that wins can be multiplied up to 3125x which would imply that it is possible to get the 5x wilds in a line.

So on a 10p bet with line of wilds or top symbol paying £5 it is saying it is possible to get a win of £15625 or 156250x bet and that is just for one line not counting ll the other lines that would be winners.

Not bad for a slot that advertises wins of 10000x per bet per spin and is capped at usual £250000 or 50000x bet.

So quite blatantly showing wins that are impossible to hit and if by some chance they were possible the slot is capped anyway.

Are not blueprints capped at 10 000x/250k whatever happens first.
Or is that different depending on what casino you play on?

Yeah put PP says slot is actually capped at 50000x . So still pointless having a slot that advertises wins that can be multiplied by 3025 times as the slot will never pay even a quarter of it.

 

[Scott1baird]

Almost as bad as playing Tombstone and getting 100 zero bonuses in a row which as we all know is highly possible.

 

[Masquerade67]

Is this one of those joke casinos ? I've played many thousands of Goonies spins recently during my Javascript harvesting sprees - hardly anything else - on all stakes up to £4. I've never gone without regular base wins though. That's real bad luck or looks dodge TBH.

 

[ZoeP]

After the 12 deposits 3k plus spins at VS on Opal Fruits for no bonus or cash out, i have stopped depositing.

To bluntly have BTG games go down for a couple of hours then come back and play like this, stinks to the high heavens.

I will be letting the freeroll run it's course and taking an extended break from VS again, as its just not worth the hassle.

Everytime i open that VS page up i just think, oh you again low RTPs poor Rewards can't hit a barn door in the freerolls and always crashing slots and battles.

Was playing on pink casino, quick spinning. I don’t think they are dodge they pay out on PayPal instantly when withdrawing

I was just as shocked, would usually get a skull feature at least. When the game originally launched it was throwing out wins left right and centre and they claim it’s all random!

 

[mcgameboy]

The way things are going, we could all find ourselves playing once a week (at most!),
making a rather modest £10 deposit, trying to hit lightning in a bottle on DOA2 at 9p or 18p a spin.

And if we don't hit it, as soon as we bustout, we close the game, exit the casino and say "hasta la vista baby".

But whether we also go on to say "I'll be back" is another matter entirely.

I myself have not gambled since June 30th.
I had £30 worth of VIP points sitting in my Casino Rewards account from July 23rd.
And I only redeemed them yesterday. But I still haven't played the bonus funds.
I also had free spins at Rizk and GUTS yesterday. And I just let them expire.
I have gone from being an avid gambler to being indifferent, bordering on allergic to gambling.

Or maybe I simply cannot be arsed anymore.
I can't help but think that my relationship (for want of a better word) with online slots is going
through what might be called a "seventh year itch".

 

[Cardio1979]

Yeah I'm also pretty much done.
1.5k on my wallet gone in the past 45 days. When my wallet hits 0 I'm out.

The picture below has lots of spins and the best I managed to get was a 400xish.
All the other bonuses rarely appeared and when they did it was garbage.

I would not care if I ever had an actual big win once but after 1.5 years of almost daily slots even that "big win" never came.

The true shock is that when I started I won pretty often and a 100 bucks would last me the night.
Those days are long over lol.

Now when I get a decent(rare) hit I cashout and run for the hills.

Anyway 300k spins at 91% rtp.
Could have been worse.

Interesting to see people sharing the same opinion. If you ask me this whole flash reskin the providers have done to their games. IE WMS MicroGaming Netent, etc is a way of gimping the games to make them way worse then they ever were. Ie raging rhino montezuma immortal rommance etc. These games are NOT the same as they once were. Dont give a shit what anyone tells me. I dont even play rhino or montezuma anymore and they used to be my go to games. I wish we could prove what we all know. But sadly aslong as we cant prove it, We will just be looked at as tin foilers etc. I play maybe once every 2 weeks or so now due to how fast a deposit goes these days im usually done in half an hour then go do something else with my time. Sad times for the online casino industry, And its only going to get worse.....

I feel sorry for the true addicts that will continue to get Shredded. The less people play the lower the rtp will eventually get. Some day a 90% rtp will be considered a ‘good’ slot

 

[slotmaster]

Not to really derail but this thread brings up another topic, I started to get into stocks and maybe go that way instead of playing slots. Just wish I had more money to do so as I got my first dividend payment the other week, if only I had like 100x more shares,lol.

Montezuma and Raging Rhino are still my favourite and most played games, and Rhino remains the game I had my biggest ever slot win on about 18 months or so ago. They can, and do still pay big from time to time, but I agree with you that they are not the games they were, and the amount of bonus guarantees or very slightly over they pay out, especially Rhino, is ridiculous.

 

[dealer wins]

Raging Rhino, one of the best games ever released, and has spawned 100s of clones and copycats

I was thinking about this the other day. I would do this if I had a solid understanding of how it all works

Me too! It appeals to the same part of my brain but at least I can have a bit more control and use my noggin a bit. Still like slots though. I only ever played them with small amounts and it was always 50/50 fun/hoping to win a little bit.

Couldn't find a relevant MG thread, this'll suffice

So, in their infinite wisdom, Microgaining have opted to heighten the minimum bet requirements for what has always been a lowroller-friendly 9-liner, as part of that 'old guard' of games.

Gone is the 9p bets, as well as the 18s, and in its stead they've made it 45p, as if anyone would play it at that stake

^ gimped

Maybe they believed this is the future, or maybe they've become desperate and are trying to catch up on their (more successful) competitors by hiking up stake sizes. Either way, its a terrible alteration.

This on top of the already mobile-esque HUDs prevalent in a newly-revised Adventure Palace 'HD' (already revised from its original incarnation a couple of years back)

So not content with making crap new games, they're now firmly focussed on butchering their old ones. Well done MG, good job!

Never even had a chance to try it (regulations)
And now i never will.
=(

 

[trancemonkey]

I think we will start to see a shift away from the kind of games listed here anyway - that kind of volatility is not something most people will stick with forever... they will either give up completely, or move on to something softer....

If you click the 3 lines or slide it across to the bet and coin size screen you should still be able to 9p these mg slots

Edit: Just checked you can if you click the 3 lines then settings then click through the bet size until its 1 coin and 0.01 coin size.

 

[KasinoKing]

Yeah put PP says slot is actually capped at 50000x . So still pointless having a slot that advertises wins that can be multiplied by 3025 times as the slot will never pay even a quarter of it.

Does seem a bit strange... but I guess the chances of hitting that max are only once in a million years anyway!

What I DO know is, that after a great first session on Genie Jackpots WIshmaker, when I went back later for another bash it was DIRE!
