Hello from Daniel Pragmatic Play

[ChopleyIOM]

Same reason as others do - there's nothing to stop them outside the UK.

So the only reason for an online casino software provider not to do something is if there's nothing to stop them doing it?

How far would you stretch that philosophy?

And some here complain that too much regulation is a bad thing!

Welcome back Dan so nice to hear from you again

I have played some of the Pragmatic games and they're not bad especially Wolf Gold

 

[nikantw]

You guys wanna talk HV. Play the Peking slot by these guys. Did a $100+$100. Lost $200 on 25 cent bets with no bonus. Never seen anything like that in my life aside from bonanza possible and biggest win was 19x.

Wont play this provider again most likely. Not a fan of provider that make slots that are capable of that garbage.

Jurassic giants is another horrific nightmare slot. All bonus pays 10-30x. Never seen anyone get 100x on it.

Terrible provider

Maybe those 3 games are not for you. It is what you get for real big potential (PL, DT). I don't remember how JG plays so I can't talk about that.
Bonanza has fake potential, 5000x is the real one and over 1000x is harder than most other games, that is how it can afford a base game RTP like that.

But PP has many other games that cover all the range from super low to super high volatility. TBH I have found the longest game play I ever had in their LV-MV games.
I just started, many more to try, many more spins to play, but the gameplay on them (LV) is the best so far.

We're only talking autoplay here, let's not get carried away! It's pretty simple from where I'm standing - for maximum player convenience there are outside parameters including infinite spins, spin until feature, 5,000 spins, infinite loss limits etc. which are in turn tempered for whichever markets they are released in, according to any regulations applicable in those respective markets. It's a common-sense way to execute autoplay options. In a similar way that it's better to overfill a hole in the wall with plaster and sand it down, than not to fill it enough in the first place. As I said you made good use of those same settings yourself in some older videos.

It's a regulatory nightmare out there for casinos and developers so the only efficient way is to begin with one-size-fits-all and slim it down.

Yes, too much regulation has been effected by the UKGC hence us losing autoplay on WMS and IGT games just to name two, which is a bloody pain in the arse frankly. Players have a finite balance when they start autoplay which they can only lose once whether there's 5000-spin or 500-spin limit. Unlike removing say reverse-withdrawal periods would, autoplay limits have next to bugger-all in player protection or responsibility terms.

I had the free spins the very first time I played the slot 2 days ago within 40 spins and got 28 FS with x5 multiplier.
Paid just over 200x.

Actually my best win on a Pragmatic slot yet when it comes to x stake.

So I must have been very lucky triggering the bonus so quickly as I hear it is a real biatch to trigger it.

Hi again Dan

Haven't really played any pragmatic play slots, apart from a rare spin here or there.

That is, apart from Gold Rush. Gave that quite a bashing for a good while a few months ago. Had some really good wins on it (but also on occasion loved to take it back. )

Might have a go again now ive been reminded of it

As someone who lives in a place with too much regulation (we don't even have autoplay on any slot), I can confirm that it is a bad thing. I rather have the choice between 100 and 1000 than no choice at all.

 

[brianmon]

They play differently as well, demo play is quicker in Quick Spin mode than real play, and Turbo Spin mode is MASSIVELY quicker in demo play than real play.

100 spins in 66 seconds from a UK IP address.
That's about 5400 spins an hour

Is that responsible gaming?

Hi all,

It is interesting to read what you all think about spin speed and auto play function and I can guarantee that I share all this info with our team.

We have released some high variance slots but we do also provide slots that are less volatile. One of my favorites that gives good entertainment is Aasgard and you do also have Wolf Golf that could be worth to look at.

Daniel

Hi dan.
Pragmatic slots are poor same old slots assguard terrible game, pretty much same focus from same guy.
Even after speaking directly with him about the games he didnt take well to any critcism about his slots, along with a few witnesses to back it up.
Rinse & repeat software bits nicked from other providers including many brick & mortar slots, like chilli heat etc etc.

 

[Steviedoo]

Hi dan
I’m a fan of pragmatic.
Welcome back to the forum.

I’ve tried almost all the pragmatic slots. And always find they give me the most play time. And I have had decent cashouts and wins on them.

 

[BillyGoldblum]

Had the same experience with the peking slot. 75 cent bets and lost $350 with no bonus and very low rtp of 18%.

Higher volatility than any slot ive ever seen so will for sure being staying away from that one

Hi Billybonanza,

Yes, Peking Luck and Da Vinci are one of the most volatile slots in our portfolio and we will mix our releases the rest of the year when it comes to the volatility of our slots.

Hi Daniel,

What are the actual odds of a player hitting the 'headline banner' figure of 48,000x stake on Da Vinci? The slot makes a big deal of this win being on the paytable (it's the first thing you see on a splash screen when the slot loads, and it's one of a handful of messages that constantly appear at the top of the game window during play).

From my reading of the slot the player would need to:

1) Trigger a bonus round with three scatters
2) Be awarded the Progressive Free Spins bonus round
3) Retrigger the bonus round the maximum four times to extend the round out to 60 spins
4) Land a full screen of the top paying stacked symbols on the 60th spin to achieve the 60x multiplier, which would be 800 x 60 = 48,000

Also, has anyone ever hit this pay?

Cheers

Hi ChopleyIOM,

I don't know the odds of it happening but it is rare as other slots to hit the max win. But there are many X stakes you can win before the 48 000x that still would make someone happy.

Br,

Daniel

Best regards to Dan!

10 days age I tried Pragmatic Play. At first tried demo (and turbo spin), but after few hours tried for real with minimal bet.
I anticipated that PP is more on the higher side so I avoid longrolling, just 25-50 spins per session.

Da Vinci is quite cool, I expected it will be more brutal, but it is ok. So far I had 2 free spins, but other features are ok (Map bonus rarely gives under 30x). I would like to experience free spins retrigger.

Madame Destiny - the very first session and free spins landed after some 20 spins (0.20 bet). In that bonus got 2 retriggers and one of them was 5-scatter. Win over 1600x! I could not believe. I play it regulary and almost always get the free spins and total win is around 100x. Very nice game, great graphics and sound but I agree with others that 3OAK waiting is iritating.

Gold Rush - so far quite cruel. Equal number of sessions as others, but no bonuses. Most dangerous.

Wolf Gold - ok slot, but free spins are disappointing and all that wilds in base game....I don't know.

Tried Vegas Nights and 5 Lions...first now is ok, but lower the potentioal, other is more HV...

Is there any plans of making megaways slots or some imitation of Queren of Riches (BTG) slot. That would be nice...

same goes for i.e bonanza

 

[aceking123]

Pragmatic its all in the name, ive played both these new slots 1500 spins peking sadly no feature but shear abundance of two scatters driving you mad.

Da winchi played a tiny bit better but alas rinse repeat rinse repeat & yes you guessed in over 12 features not a single free spin.

Red tiger & pragmatic are just so damn scripted slots imo.

 

[PaaskeDenmark]

Great to see you back here Dan and big congrats with your new job wish you all the best sir.

That is the ONLY slot I have ever managed to get a hole in 1 on the first spin ...

Jokes aside, is there any way Pragmatic would consider hard coding their RTP's like Netent do?

These pop up and fly by night casinos are taking the piss along with Pragmatic, Play'n Go and other providers offering such dreadful RTP's. The story of regulation is a moot point - In some jurisdictions its applicable, but most of the time the Casinos are offered the chance to alter the RTP on request.

I suppose NO provider will be ethical enough to state in the splash screen something along the lines of 'This slot has a reduced RTP as opted by the casino'

[kazzi]

Was supprised to see Prigmatic slots was changed yeasterday to actually have quickspins now with none lag, supprising fun to play them now.

This was in denmark though dunno if changed everywhere.

Could not agree more. Surely this has had a hugely negative impact on the aforementioned providers as I know I play slots with no autospin far less than those with. I doubt I am alone in this.

You're certainly not alone. In such a saturated market it's more important than ever for a company to get their slots onto the front page of a site and noticed, and once they've fallen off those slots are then on a slippery slope and get buried and forgotten very quickly. Having autoplay is a massive advantage in this case, even more so if you can turbo-play through lots of spins quickly. And it goes without saying that surely the slots with AP get more games played on them per player session than those that don't. There's no way that the likes of IGT, WMS/Barcrest/SG/Bally, Microgaming and the like aren't at a huge disadvantage. I can't be arsed to sit there clicking SPIN every 3 seconds; I'd rather open up a NetEnt game, stick it on AP and tuck the window away while I'm doing other stuff and check back to see if the bonus has come in. Whenever I see a new game that doesn't have AP I will go as far as playing for the bonus and then I'll most likely never play it again. It's just inconceivable that IGT and WMS cannot easily reintegrate their autoplay functionality easily, but then I'm no coder.
