Seriously pissed off with Thunderstruck II

[Dinahnana]

Okay I play Thunderstruck II alot. It is my favourite game. I noticed over the last couple of months gameplay on this slot sucks for me anyway. Did they change something or do they have something in the software stating I cannot win on this slot. I know this is not true but this used to be my go to slot but not anymore. I haven't had a decent bonus in a while and the wildstorms are basically non-existent. I am just venting here but wondering if any other meister members feel the same way.

I played it last week at XFactor Games to pass £4,000 wagering on FDB and had a decent session. Loki gave some of the better bonuses and enjoyed the game play.

The Wild Storm feature which appeared every couple of hundred spins only ever gave 1 wild reel.

Glad to see somebody is having luck on this slot!

I didn't know where to mention it, but the other day playing at XFactor Games I had a good session and had the withdrawal done and dusted.

So I headed over to ole Thunderstruck II with my leftover funds, for nostalgia more than anything.....only to find it to be the most boring, tight, bonus-less game I've played in the last couple of years.

I swear it never used to be this dull? I got one Shitstorm and saw the first reel illuminate in wonderment. Then....nothing.

More double scatters than you can shake a stick at. Slow gameplay. Hardly any wins. After losing about £40 on it I fled.

Shan't be playing it again in a hurry, let's put it that way! By the looks of it, Nicola nicked everyone's RTP to fund her session!

Maybe we should all get mad at Nicola for messing up our TS2 RTP (only kidding ) I have been playing this game at other sites not the xtractor one since I haven't heard much about it and am not even sure that Irish players are welcome. Just annoyed that TS2 has been playing very bad for me in the last couple of months. I think I got a total of 3 shitsorms in a total of 4k spins or thereabouts and none payed more than 10x. I think I need to give this slot a break.

TS2 Can really suck when in kill mode , but got to say been pretty lucky on this one as of late. Its still one of my favs slot and a retro reminder of how good MG "used to be!" shame all they deliver these days is cloned or near cloned rubbish. I would not though chase a bonus round on TS2 - If im at 350 to 450 spins with nothing happening i switch games.

It's been in kill stone dead mode for me at all casinos lately. I haven't tired the new xfactor site yet am not even sure that they except Irish players. What I wouldn't give to have a decent free spins round on TS2. Alas I am starting to think that those are in the past. Forget about the clones cause the only thing they do is take your money. Maybe I should quit slots Heaven forbid!

 

[lockinlove]

ive always thought this game paid like a piece of crap. So no i dont think anythings changed cause its still a piece of crap!

 

[PNEFOREVER2]

Played TS2 for the best part of the last 10 years, been like that for a while now.

Not the game it used to be but hey isn't there an Immortal Romance thread just the same as this, I'm sure MG slots are 'pre-programmed' to decline over time and no foil hats here.

It's my 'Go to / Starting game' at 32 Red EVERY deposit (play it here mostly as Download is miles better than flash for this game)

Last 12 deposits on the trot I have left the game at a loss with not one bonus round

Makes me question the very nature of gambling in general.

Maybe a bad comparison but if I walked up to the fruit machine in my local the same 12 times, I guarantee I would not lose all 12 visits as I have done here!

Makes me seriously think it remembers that hit

No idea what you're alluding to, you've never mentioned it before

Least I was considerate and spared you guys the screen shot

Edit: seems a millennium ago now that does

I think the Wild Storm feature is programmed differently to the Wild Desire feature in IR.
For me getting only 1 wild reel in TSII is very common while in IR I tend to get more wild reels.

[spintee]

Its probably following TS1 footstep, dramatic RTP drop or what feels like that,


I got slaughtered on the xfactor, Would of had more chance of winning in the actual show than winning on that site,

They cant drop or alter the RTP without informing the UKGC - for uk players anyhow and they dont need to. We are but a fraction of the millions of people who play these games every day.
I think we have heard enough times from source that RTPS remain the same and not linked to past current or potential future bets. The program does not care. Its been done to death this subject
and there has never been any proof or smoking gun found that something ominous goes on. Now that MG have released the true RTP figures - we can be sure that is what they are - they would not risk
there license to publish one figure and then give another in any set game. Luck though varies ... early this year could not hit jack - the past 5 or 6 weeks cant really miss. And it will go down again the longer I play.

I think its natural we look for a reason why we dont hit - especially on a very bad run - but in the end it comes down to one hard fact - we will loose - its built into the maths model to ensure this. Without the need
for any underhand tactics. And we have to ask if there truly was a tin foil hat system in play from the game providers why has no one from the industry ever come forward to blow the lid of this ? Yet we aint.

I don't recognize that second Wild...What MG game is this?

Santa's Wild Ride?

Jurasic Park

Jurasic Park

Wow, is it really?

Looks different to how I remembered it.

Then again it's a long time since I got any features on it, so...

I am 99.9% sure it is, I just went to double check and tried 3 different sites and all had an error?

 

[Jono777]

Yup Jurassic Park spot on

From the T-Rex feature, (not the 'extra' wilds, from the 3 scatters)

The one where you get 3OAK constantly and never more than 2 reels wild

I played this at xfactor games last week and it was like the slot was rigged in reverse. The features were literally coming thick and fast, maybe every 15 -25 spins and they were all reasonable. Balance upto 2300 in about 30 minutes upping to 4.5 a spin, bit all incrementaly, no one massive wins about 150x stake. Goes to show how the variance can work at both extremes

 

[brianmon]

TSII hasn't been too bad for me today.

But this was such a disappointment, when the count up had finished.

Only 65x

 

[Jono777]

Never a 'K' on reel 2 when you need one

 

[Retno Elisabet]

Maybe we should all get mad at Nicola for messing up our TS2 RTP (only kidding ) *snip* I have been playing this game at other sites not the xtractor one since I haven't heard much about it and am not even sure that Irish players are welcome. Just annoyed that TS2 *snip* Tutorial
Poker has been playing very bad for me in the last couple of months

 

[JkG]

TSII also one of my favourites and I've been hitting feck all. I rarely get a wildstorm and when I do I am already ready to click spin again because not only does it only ever give me 1 wild line, it never pays out either.
Scatters are there constantly.
Hitting the bonus ...not so much, if I do hit the bonus I usually go for the first one or the last one. For some reason Loki has never liked me and Odins ravens can't fly when I'm playing. So... Play the other two ..and the wins have been terrible low lately.

Also I've the full payable board achievements, bar 5 wilds and 5 bonus' and it's driving me crazy

Some real dodgy links there - reported your post as it looks like spam from where I am sitting.

 

[bowlingbob]

Does anyone else still play this piece of shit slot?

For weeks its stone cold dead with hardly any bonus or playtime. This slot just goes for the kill on your balance.

Last session betting 3.00 got me all the way down to the end and wildstorm pops up gives the middle finger with single wild in middle reel and zero win. All too common.

I've had at least 1000 shitstorms on this slot and only ONCE did I get more than 2 reels wild and that was 3.

Of all the bonuses I've had never more than 400x bet on any of them.

Just once did I ever get 5 wilds in base game and that paid not even 200x.

I don't know why I play this when Immortal Romance is far superior of a game compared side by side.

 

[Valhalla]

My brother still plays TSII regularly (more even than Immortal Romance), and I always ask him why he bothers. And then I sat watching 5 scatter fall in during Valkyrie's free spins on a £1.50 and realised why he bothers
