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!

Excellent idea!
I'd block these ones straight away:-
ThunderSucks 1
Deck the Halls
Break your Bank Again and again and again...
Gift Crap - and any other "picking bonus" slots where you can win ZERO in the bonus.
Mega Moolah Isis
All MG slots which have the "Lobby sound" instead of unique background music, except Buffet Bonanza!

Helpfile?

I have tried to reach the helpfile to T 2 in two different casinos but the file isn´t there..

Does anyone have it or am I the only one who wants to read it?

 

[marcsudbury]

i had it on 32 red, top left corner

 

[Marie2473]

What happens when you have unlocked all the bonus levels, will they stay unlocked and randomly give out one, or start all over again? Anyone knows?

And whats up with the achiving (spell?) levels, will that give u anything or is it just to keep track?

Sorry if this has already been answered but I couldnt find it =)

Test that!

 

[KasinoKing]

Fourth lot of free-spins since I started - second lot over bet x100!

... but only thanks to this hit on the very LAST spin which saved it from being pants!

 

[bgermain1985]

Oooh! All these inticing screenshots, I do not want my hopes dashed to come home to no new game being avaiable.

That's the fate of US user, bwah ;_;

I noticed once before that my computer had some locale glitch and cause the 'blocked' games to be lifted from my computer.

Does anybody have an idea that would allow a US user to gain access to those 'locale specific' games?

I want to play TSII so much

Question about grand achievement

I have unlocked all bonus games(so I hit the bonus feature 15 times) and had a nice bonus round with Thor (see picture below) .

Old Attachment (Invalid)

This took me 1500 spins so a bonus round every 100 spins

My question is I have also reached some achievements and some of the symbols have a gold status (Odin, K,Q,J,10,9) see below:

Old Attachment (Invalid)

I read somewhere you will need to reach all achievements and have to hit the three bonus symbols 20 times and then you have reached the grand achievement.

What does this mean? Does this give an extra award or is it just an achievement without a prize included?

It will take forever to reach this grand achievement as for example you will have to hit 5 wild symbols and 5 scatters...

If it does not mention any payout you can be pretty sure that there will be no payout for that Grand Achievement.

Did another 500 spins today, it was even worse than yesterday, no shitst.. I mean, wildstorm, and 2 freespinrounds for 9xbet and 21x bet.

It just plays too damn slow to be fun, cannot get over 500 spins per hour.
So 1200 spins and 3 FSrounds means on avarage I'm waiting 45 minutes each time before finally, FINALLY something happens.
And than it also craps out completely, LOL.
What a crapgame.


It seems that wildstorm triggers just as often as the Bellboy Supermode, once every 10.000 spins or so.

Maybe with a superfast PC and some more luck ( it seems the Ladbrokes version has more hammers) it can be a nice game, but after all the fuzz about it I found it to be utterly dissapointing so far.

I'm really done with it now, goodluck to all who play it.

1) Disconnect internet
2) Start casino software
3) Reconnect internet




It might work, because I have noticed a similar glitch with other blocked games, that SOME casinos, such as 32Red, blocked in mid December, but that OTHER casinos have kept, or put back recently.

It seems that when the lobby cannot access the update server, it "times out" and loads the lobby, but the "block" is NOT applied.

Unfortunately, the most likely outcome is that you will SEE the "blocked" games, but they will be "greyed out", and even if you click them, it will give you "upgrades unavailable".

I just find it frustratingly inept and "messy" to sometimes log in and find these "upgrades unavailable" games visible, and at other times "blocked".

It seems MGS have just "botched" the game blocking process, rather than writing some proper code.

I have also found ONE instance where a game claiming to be "upgrades unavailable" WILL load, and this is where the "click" is applied to a link in the lobby advertising, rather than using the game menu.

WARNING - only use FREE MODE, not REAL MONEY, since US players are not supposed to be playing these games, and it might cause trouble if you were to win & withdraw. (It might make MGS write better code in the future too)

 

[footdr]

Wish I could play this game.....

Due to Microgamings unexplained rules, I can't play any of the new games.

Why? There is no logical reason.

 

[Simmo!]

OK here you go. As promised

Shows all the features of TS2. I was a bit of a muppet actually as it took me about 4 hours to unlock all the features and get the videos together and only at the end did I realise I'd accidentally switched the sound capture to Microphone! D'oh So I've added a music track just so you don't get too bored.

Piecing it together was a bit of a challenge as all the features came to well over 10 mins - the Yootoob limit, so I have transitioned bits and pieces but you can at least see every bonus round in action if you stick it out. They aren't in the order I hit them btw.

Now, if anyone's interested, what do I think of it? The more I played it the more I like it. It gets a from me.

 

[maphesto]

Great!

I would have liked to hear your bad comments and screams instead of the music..

 

[WonderingSpirit]

So far this game sucks donkeyballs

I had 5 freespins features. Took a shitload of spins

Max payout on freespins were 20$

I was so happy when I finally open Loki freespins. 0.9$ and 15 free spins

Total win stunning 4.61$ Wild magic appeared in free spins and made all symbols of last wheel wild, with no pay whatsoever.

On top of it all, the game freezes quite often and I have to log out and back in. Has happened 5 or 6 times now, and surprise... Money were deducted from the spins that froze, and it seems I didnt win on any line during freeze.

Still have some money left, but this hyped up game is not far from my shitlist.

 

[WonderingSpirit]

And one minute after posting my last reply I thought luck had changed as I went into a wildstorm...

well....... F*ck me.

Sorry if this has already been answered but I couldnt find it =)

I played it for a bit and read through the rules. Unlocking features can't possibly have any significant impact on return to player, otherwise the return would be so low until you had made 'progress' that no one would really want to play. The different free game/multiplier combos must be (at least nearly) the same as the first one that is available to everyone.

It appears to be a borrowed concept from non-gambling games that have 'quests'. I'm sure it will work reasonably well on some people, but personally I don't think it's a big deal. The artwork on the game is really well done. The intro movie was nice (but I'll skip it every time from now on). Payout-wise I had a couple of nice hits, but overall there were a lot of blanks and a lot of </= original bet spins to really make me feel like I had much of a chance.

I give it a thumbs up on art and a thumbs down on playability.

:notworthy

I didn´t think that was possible. It´s like 0 coins in the features at Rival slots.

I think that shot needs to be placed at "screen shots that sucks"-section.

I redeposited and hit wildstorm again at max bet at 0.01 =3$ bet

0 again

Waouw Ian, thanks for the video but the music is so gooood !

Agreed. None of the features appear to be any better/worse then any of the others. Just different. One thing I'd like to know that isn't obvious is, can Wildstrom occur during free spins? I'm guessing yes as the 2.4mil coin payout could only be achieved IMO with stacked wilds on reels 1-5 at 6x, the top FS multipler. Actually I have another related question: if you bet more coins, do you stand a better chance of getting more Wild reels in Wildstorm? Probably not, but it would mean a need for a Max Coins strategy.

I give it a thumbs up on art and a thumbs down on playability.

It's such a hard balancing act. This is why I think the original TS will - after the initial fury has died down - remain the No.1 MG slot and will be for a long time to come. The balance is as close to spot on as you'll find. TS2's biggest issue IMO is that (like most 243-way slots I've played) there isn't that much potential in regular play to hit a biggie. Wildstorm is probably your only real hope.

That said, from abut 12 bonus rounds on TS2 I did have a 150x and a 200x payout. I reckon TS 2 will be a regular in the Top 5, but not No. 1. As eye-candy goes though, it's definitely the best in the MG armoury IMO.

As for features, the 10 at 5x and the Wild Magic ones are my favourites. The Rolling Reels one is nice to watch but a bit boring after a while and the Raven one just plain boring. The Ravens need some LSD or something to make them inject a bit or urgency while the Raven on the right hand side must have a damaged wing. Either that or it simply can't be arsed. Or it's a manipulative female

 

[WonderingSpirit]

Well I finally managed to get the thor free spins. 1.50 bet total win for 25 spins. 23$


biggest win I had on free spins were 60$ on Odin free spins.


Lots of 5$ wins in free spins

After all that excitement about the launch, funny how quickly this slot seems to have been forgotten!

Here's my mini-review:
I am bitterly disappointed in this slot which looked so great when I started playing it, but now I've played the more "advanced bonuses"I feel totally conned.

The advanced features all SOUND great, but they're not, because:

Loki Bonus: This is only any good if you get the "Wild Magic" symbol on the middle reel - the chances are you'll only get it twice in your 15 spins. Even then, it's still crap if it doesn't plant the extra wilds in the right places.

Odin Bonus: The paytable doesn't tell you the Ravens only swoop when you've already got a win! And who has ever seen BOTH Ravens come down? I've played this bonus about 10 times & NEVER had 2.

Thor Bonus: This sounds really great, doesn't it! I had visions of the same as what you get on Tomb Raider 2... but it's a total rip-off! Why? Because the slot uses a completely different set of reel-strips which are packed with non-picture symbols (9 to A) making big wins highly unlikely.

Wild Storm Random Bonus: As above, reels with most of the big symbols removed makes a decent hit extremely rare - the first 2 times I had this feature I won ZERO!

IMHO the best bonus is the Valkyrie 10 spins @ x5, followed by Odin which is quite good occasionally.
I probably will never play the other 2 bonuses ever again...

Anyone still playing it regularly AND enjoying it?

KK

I got the crows or what ever kind of beast they are free spins feature and they both swoopped down made it a "big win" overall im way up on this slot not sure if i will play alot in the future, it promises alot but most of it is eye candy Nice looking but ahem ... boring for 98% of the spins.

Me

And I totally agree with you about the bonuses. But i like it. It's now my second place slot behind....? Thunderstruck

It's a slot where you look to double your money and get out - not one to hold out for a huge win on, but nonetheless I find it gives a good run for your money.

 

[Rusty]

I think this is one of MG's better new releases.
At least the graphics are updated and when you first play it there is always something new to look forward to.
I have not managed a win of over 30x bet yet though and I'm well over a thousand spins.
