Official Hi! We are Nolimit City!

I do like the look of Barbarian Fury but, alas, I can only play in demo for now as my bankroll couldn't take a session on a high variance slot (assuming I lose)

I'm with @Kroffe in that I wish there were lower stakes games out there, especially on the high variance slots.
Where I play has started to phase out slots not with a min stake of 20p which is a shame as I used to get to play the 10p slots even when I wasn't well off but still wanted at least some financial interest in a game over demo I guess casinos don't want us playing micro stakes?
 
Plus i GAMSTOP'd myself last year to save up to get married and buy a house.
Good for you mate! Hope that's going well for you.

Nah, just wanted to throw a bit of banter as you seem to be a man of valuable opinons, no pressure mate.

It's all cool. Keep the banter coming ;)
 
Quite disappointed with Barbarian Fury. The bonus round only gave me 3 spins (2 dead & 1 micro win) which were over in a flash.
 
It's a bit of a lopsided game IMO, having the feature able to trigger in that fashion is just a 'feelbad' mechanic. Add in the fact (as per my previous post) that you need to get the nudge multipliers in the free spins AND actually land something worthwhile to hit a decent win, and you're left with a feature that disappoints far too often, but somehow also feels like it's rubbing your face in it a bit in the process.

I don't think the nudge mechanic is inherently bad (Hot Nudge implements it fine), but Barbarian Fury misses the mark for me.

In fairness it is available to play for free at Nolimit City's own website, so players can at least give it a try to their heart's content before deciding whether or not to commit real funds, so kudos for that.

Funny enough after reading his post about the 3 scatter trigger paying 0 i went to their website and had it running on auto for a thousand spins.

First bonus 5 spins paid 0. Second bonus 10 spins with another 6 retriggered paid about 1x stake. Balance dropped so fast till got full screen in base mode that paid 150x.

Two more bonuses paid about 2x and 25x.

Then got a bonus that gave full screen with 6x multiplier so 9x for that spin.

Think it is real high variance slot and fact was nearly 200x stake down so quick not a slot i would play for Real often.

But to be fair after just getting another full screen in base i am up about the 900X stake still as balance currently 10925.05.

Turning it off now tho.
 
I LOVE Nolimit City!
- the games tho.... don't like me back :'(

Not had the bonus yet on Barbarian Fury but have been having some fun on it. Totally agree its not for the feint hearted and i only really played because i had a bigger budget than usual.

Plus had some fun on Wild Sushi (never played before) Punk Rocker, Poison Eve i really like (also never played before) and Manhattan Wild is a fav of mine, you can do 10p's which is nice.

A couple from last night.......

Crazy base game hit took me into the free spins after.......

Average Punk Rocker free spins for me seems to be about x100. I think this one finished at about x115.

I think the total for the bonus was about £52. Had 3 lots of free spins in the session.

Free spins on Poison Eve, ill be going back for 3 or more portals i think.....

Almost full screen.......I had a mental 'screenshots that suck' as well with 2 bear multipliers and full screen of red barbarian but it didnt pop....

I like No Limit City games, smooth and varied with some proven bonus potential.

Edit: Just went on Barbarian Fury and got this on the second spin.....

I think ill exit quick :)

I would not call it shady.
Im guessing it is to reach out to as many casinos as possible.
Some only use low-rtp versions, and would maybe skip Nolimit City if they only offered 96%+rtp.
Altho i of course prefer when providers only distribute one version of their slots.
 
Question to @NolimitCity :

Just spotted this issue on another forum.
Why do you also offer these lowered RTP-versions of your slots? Isnt this little bit hmm shady practice...?At least not so good for your reputation

At least @Videoslots is using these versions. But no surprise there.

Nothing shady.

MGA requires min 92% RTP
UKGC requires min 90% RTP

As long as the games are certified at those values, there is nothing illegal or regulation-wise to stop casinos to use them.

As of now, we have about a dozen developers offering multi-RTP games for ONLINE casinos - Red Tiger, NetEnt (soon), Play'n GO, Scientific Games, Pragmatic Play to name just a few. The 93 - 94% bracket will more or less become the norm over the next 1-2 years.

This has been the absolute norm for landbased casinos where RTPs can go as low as 75%.

Not the right thread for this (sorry Nolimit City)
But i dont understand why netent is planning on making different versions.
They are such a big name, no way any casino will skip their slots because of high rtp.

Pressure from the casino operators and their shareholders.

I do think the "golden times" of online casinos are somewhat over as increasing regulation, taxes, laws, AML, RG, competition, etc have been eating substantially into their profits, the rate of which has not changed in 2 decades. It has been 3-5% of the wagered amount on the games ever since day one plus any other stuff like sportsbook, virtuals etc. Table games and live casino have even lower percentages.

Game providers get a cut of the casino revenue, so lower RTP increases their revenue too.

Sweden is the best example, some casinos had the majority of their revenue from just that one country and now it is more like "one of the many smaller contributors".

There have been too many players winning thousands off their games, netent variance has always been reknowned as generous to the player, so it's cutback time, otherwise there'll just be too many poor online casino owners and slot makers. Bet365's ceo Denise coates was only able to trouser £323 million last year...

The vast majority of Bet365's profit is coming from sports betting. The total profit was roughly GBP700 million in 2018. So Casino, Live Casino, Bingo and Poker together gave them, you could say peanuts - about GBP40 million in operating profit. :D

It's a family-owned business, hence, Denise will always pocket a good chunk of the profits. :D

And then on the flip side shareholders and investors get a smaller chunk for doing pretty much naff all :)

For a big gambling firm, slots paying out 96% is money for old rope, the risk is controlled, in the long term it's a guaranteed golden goose, I suspect the lower rtp versions were intially intended for the smaller online casino which needed more revenue from each player and less risk.

I wonder if bet365/betfair etc will stick to 96% rtp slots if their main revenue is from the spotsbook side; and if all online casinos go to the 94% versions, while a higher one is still available, I'm sure the CMA in the uk will look into it, as there needs to be competition in price.

It will be one certain way, though, to get players to reduce their time/money on slots

Can you imagine something like bonanza on 94% :laugh: ..
 
Oh, it's been quite the discussions in this thread during the weekend - great to see! Sorry that we haven't been responding, but there's other stuff happening around us that seems to get a lot of focus at the moment.

It's like what for example @Kroffe said - we want our games to be showcased and some operators will only take a lower RTP version, for example to cover for regulatory costs.

Why NetEnt does it, I'm not the person to answer, we'd have to ask NetEnt directly.
 
The thread title makes me smile everytime I see it on the new posts list.

I hear music everytime I see "We are..." on the list.

I'm not very observant. In a similar manner, everytime I see @GourdFollower 's name, I read it as "Groundflower" and for a moment find myself contemplating the meaning of it.

(Sorry for the derail, I have not played here yet. Must the cabin fever is setting in :laugh: As you were)

:drink:

How about you do the players a favour then, and display the RTP prominently on the loading screen, as some other game producers do?
 
Gotta admit I have been chasing on this game and probably only won my money back I have been depositing past few weeks but had plenty of huge hits on both Dragon Tribe and Tombstone (manged to get the almost impossible to get 5 scatter trigger which paid around $3.2k on $8) before.

In terms of highest X on any of their games it would probably be this hit on the weekend.

Was only the 3 scatter feature as well and not the 4 scatter one that most people land the big hits on.

We have started to reorganise our paytable a bit, and the RTP will from now on be placed in the top of the game rules - along with any RTP for the buy featyure opporunities that might be available.
 
It's a very volatile game - so it can hit its hot and cold streaks!

Come back tomorrow and keep a lookout for our next game....
 
A new month, and a new game. This time around it's Harlequin Carnival with a twist on our popular mechanic xNudge® - now it's a walking Wild that allows for free respins while on the reel!

FB_Post_Harlequin_1.webp


Game in short:
5x3 reels, 20 win lines with xNudge Wild, Harlequin Respins and Harlequin Bonus. Min bet 20c,max bet 100.

Harlequin xNudge wild & Harlequin Respins
Land a Harlequin Wild and she will nudge in fully, increasing the Wild multiplier w. +1x for each nudge. She then starts to walk to the left and awards respins until she hits reel 1. Any additional Wilds will prolong the respins!

Harlequin Bonus
Land 3 scatters, or collect 3 scatters during respins, to start the Harlequin Bonus. Harlequin Wilds now goes full on crazy and allows for +1x for each walk as well, up to x7. First spin will guarantee for a Harlequin Wild on reel 5, collect 3 scatter wilds for another guaranteed Harlequin Wild on reel 5.

Volatility: High
This is a volatile game, set to "high" on our scale - similar to Barbarian Fury - which means higher than Hot Nudge, but lower than Tombstone to give you an idea.

Can I ask please, why are basically all your slots high volatility these days? Looking back through your game portfolio, you used to release games with a far greater spread of volatility, including really tame releases such as Oktoberfest that had a max prize of 500x stake.

(And the incredibly good Wixx, which I think is pretty much the perfect win spread and volatility.)

The most recent video I did for my channel was trying to find some sensible variance slots that offered decent playtime, and that got some really good feedback from folks who were getting frustrated with their balances being obliterated by high variance games.

Some of us really do play for entertainment as much as trying to win, and aren't bothered about chasing wins of many thousands of times stake, not least because we understand how vanishingly rare hits like that are.

If I'm honest, with the exception of Punk Rocker (which I've stopped playing anyway because it's too volatile for my taste), most of your recent releases I've kicked around in demo play for a bit, concluded the volatility doesn't agree with me, and not played with real funds at all.

I made the mistake of chasing a big win on Tombstone back in February, that didn't end well......

I guess high volatility games perform better and make more money?

Agree.
I mostly go for volatile to very volatile slots when playing.
I guess mostly because i play such low stakes.

But even i do have sessions where i just want to jump around and play for a bit, and very highly volatile games is a no-no for that.
Its either win big or lose fast when playing these super volatile slots, and in almost all cases its the latter.
 
@Kroffe and @ChopleyIOM - you're right, our portfolio and releases the last few months has been very volatile. It's a decision made a long time back of course, since a game takes quite a bit of time to develop from concept stages until it's all done, tested and certified. So games that comes out now, trails back to a period when the trend was very volatile games.

The upcoming months we'll be a bit more mixed up, with a couple of releases that would be of mid to mid+ volatility. Not something close to Oktoberfest or Tesla Jolt in any way, but a more reasonable kind of entertainment touch to it (max exposure around 4000x) and more well rounded in their payouts.

@ChopleyIOM - you're right about the more volatile games getting more exposure - not just from streamers but players in general.

For those guys who may not be that familiar with our earlier titles, which aren't that volatile, please have a look at Tesla Jolt, Oktoberfest, Fruits, Kitchen Drama Sushi Mania and maybe also Mayan Magic.

Wixx isn't regarded as a volatile slot these days (mid+), but when it was released it was a monster. However, with getting the respin feature pretty often - it might not feel as volatile if you miss on the respin. Love that game myself tho, an early gem that hasn't really gotten the attention that I'd like. We didn't have many clients back in those days.
