Thunderstruck II waiting room

Just woke up, this sucker is HUGE, still downloading the game.
 
You non_usa citizens having all the fun. We here are getting hit with a massive oil spill that will kill the gulf of mexico. Miners getting trapped in mines and dying every other day. Illegal Immigrants protesting and boycotting. Bombs being planted in downtown NYC. Cops being shot and killed in major cities. Rivers flooding major cities and states. People being evacuated. Massive foreclosure and Job lay off. States can't balance their budget. They are closing schools like crazy. Banking defrauding their investors (Stock Market looking to retest their lows). Army being called to patrol Chicago because of mass shootings and killings. A solar satellite out of control, and raising the threat of interference with other satellites in its pat. This is just another day in Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.
 
Anyone any idea what unlocking the "achievements" does? Unlocked 10, 9 and 8 now but it doesn't seem to affect anything that I can see at the moment
 
First thought / question:
Do unlocked bonus games stay unlocked after 20 bonus rounds?
Or does the "bonus bar" reset?

I'm assuming all four bonus games are of equal value?

Liking what I see so far :)


Simmo: I think achievements are for tracking wins only. Your winning combos will be lit up in the paytable. Eye candy in other words ;)

Ah ok - yes they seem to be tied in to 5oaks. I am through to the second set of bonuses with Wild Magic feature. This gets better the further you go - different screens, music and extra wilds.

Will be interesting to see what happens at 20 for sure. My guess is it stays there and you get a choice of whichever bonus you prefer. I think they are all roughly equal.

The film "Casino Royale" springs to mind. A lot of people said "Yeah very good film, but it's not really Bond!" :)
 
Pretty low variance - as expected from 243-ways - so expected all decent hits to come from the bonus feature... and I was right!

First lot of free-spins paid bet x 73.
Second lot NEARLY got to bet x100 thanks to a re-trigger for 20 spins in total - though the ONLY wins I got in the first 10 spins were 3 and 2 scatters...
(Edit: Noticed the re-trigger did NOT count as a feature in the Great Hall of Spins... :()

So far though I have to say :thumbsup:
 
Well I ploughed through a hundred or so, with a couple of mediocre bonus rounds. I won one on of the other new machines and came back to Thunderstruck II and hit a couple of those lightning storm things where 2 of the reels turn all wild. Made most of the loss back.

Things I like -
When your going to hit the lightning storm feature (or whatever it's called), you press spin and the reels spin for a lot longer than normal, you know it's coming. When I first got it I thought I had a connection problem (oh, here we go, prepared to be disconnected).

It certainly looks nice, and play's very smooth.

Not so much -

It's not quite the slot revolution the marketing made it out to be. Gameplay and Bonus wise, we have seen it all before. Graphics, sound and animation? Good but it's still blown away by something like playtechs Gladiator.

Paytable is low, you'll need a big multiple or serveral instances of a top line win to get that big hit.

Cheers!

It'll be quite some time before we see something as good as that IMO.

Have to say though, TS2 is better than I expected. Not a great fan of 243 lines so long term, I may tune out a bit, but what I've seen so far I like :thumbsup: You definitely need the bonus rounds to make this one pay though. That's not too unusual but that's where it majorly differs from the original TS. I'd say 20x-30x is about as good as it gets in regular spins unless you land 5 scatters or the Wild thingy. But in 6 bonus rounds I've had a 150x and a 200x which is decent.
 
Downloading since 15 minutes. Why does that take so long :mad:

Finally a new Thunderstruck but the download isnt working :(
 
700 spins played so far. Only ONE freespinround!

Highlights:

Spin 241: Wildstorm, paid: 8x bet.
Spin 478: Freespins, paid: 21x bet.

And a few 5oak so called 'BIG WINS' of 30/40x bet. (Woohoo)

My opinion so far:

BOOOORING AS HELL!!
All you can do is wait, wait, wait for those feautures to trigger, because in normal spins nothing ever happens, the paytable is so incredibly LOW that its just not at all interesting anymore.
I hit 5 thors+wildkicker for...35xbet?!? BIG WIN!!! Yeah right..:rolleyes:

Nice graphics, sure, but if I want nice graphics I'd rather play Final Fantasy.

Back to TS1!!
And BDBA!! Nothing beats those slots!!!
 
This is officially the game I will never do more than 100 spins at a time :O
Spend a TON on this thing, never up over my deposits.
Ah well.
 
Can someone be arsed to work out how you could hit 2.4 million coins?

Even if you hit the wildstorm and Thor filled all 5 reels with wilds (ok that wouldn't and probably couldn't happen), you would still only get 253x1000 (about a quater of a mil right?).

Unless its a max payout on the tumbling reels free spins. They would have to tumble for a very long time. Your corpse would be found hunched in front of your PC, skeletal hand still gripping the mouse.
 
wow this game sucks, just like when tomb raider 2 came out. super low variance. chace the bonuses forever. i got 772 spins, 2 lightning bonuses and 2 free spins bonuses. wow i am so disappointed thought this wold be awesome. i'll only play it in the future if i am WAY up.
 
I really wish I was able to play this game! Most are having fun playing it seems..Ah well, maybe one day.
 
Agreed Marcsudbury, don't you wish there was a block game function, so you never get tempted to play that crap again...LOL If enough people block a game, who knows maybe they will get rid of it!

243.000 win * 10 coins=2.430.000 coins win.
 
Knocked up a Yootoob vid of the intro (with sound) for Americans to have a peek and am working on a gameplay one with a bonus round or two. Will post when ready :thumbsup:
