Time to sell NetEnt shares?

[slotmaster]

I would never dream to condone that sort of behaviour.

I’ll have look at the games list and see what we have heading back to Canada.

Bump for games list and to see if burgstrom is still around.

 

[dunover]

Well I hope 'burgstrom' gets verified soon, cause his appearance is surprising, especially on a thread I created saying they have no future unless they get their arse in gear

For fuck's sake people, I've met the Gnatent people and they work in Stockholm not friggin' Malta. The poster is more bogus than a Bonanza scatter.

O.k. it's been a day, Can we play now?

I will hunt him down instead of Dan. Give poor Dan a break!

Trancemonkey says he’s real:

He's not an affiliate, so does he have to prove it (in the same way i haven't had to prove it, although i've met Bryan... so i did prove it regardless)? He's not posting as NetEntOfficial is he - although maybe he should

I can confirm that burgstrom is indeed working for NetEnt in the role he says he is... and if you want people to engage from companies that you criticise (and sometimes praise) on here, then attacking them from the off for "lying about where they work" is not a great start

 

[slotmaster]

Is dunover ever happy?

and Kiev, Kraków, Malta, Gibraltar and Gothenburg

You only need look at the current vacancies on the NetEnt corporate site.

 

[bebo67]

Is dunover ever happy?

Yes! At Christmas!

 

[dunover]

Yes! At Christmas!

You're joking, that's the time of year I detest most. Scrooge has nothing on me. There's a hotel in Scotland I believe that does (or did) 5-day Christmas breaks, where there were no decorations, staff weren't allowed to mention the C-word and people could escape to have 5 'normal' days over the festering period. If I could get away with it I'd be there myself....

I know it is! It was a tongue in cheek comment.

 

[robby811]

Yes! At Christmas!

No he don t likes Xmas like me

 

[bebo67]

No he don t likes Xmas like me

Lol. I was joking . I know he hates Christmas. My favorite time of the year. I'm waiting for my son to find a girl, get married, have babies. So I can have little ones running around again at Christmas. * Big sigh* Can't see that happening any time soon.

 

[goatwack]

Ah Christmas, my favourite time of year too!

The annoying badgering adverts, the fake sentiment, and the chance to say 'Bah Humbug' a lot & tell kids that Father Christmas isn't real.

It's magical, that

I had amazing Christmases as a kid. My father may he rip, was such an amazing dad, but he made Christmas time so magical. I remember the smell of the tree, huge balls that you could see yourself in. Sticky candy in the stocking. The faithful slinky that always showed up every year, to only be twisted with in a half hour. All my relatives showing up. All my barbies I made sure my kids had the same memories that I had.

I dunno, for all the things I like here, Christmases are just rubbish 0 atmosphere

Christmases in the UK are an advertisement onslaught with 1-upmanship on who buys the best present. Plus we have no snow

Canada has the same with adverts, but I just block all that out! I love baking.especially my mincemeat tarts! Num num.

 

[Steviedoo]

Why are we talking Christmas in the month of May...lol

 

[goatwack]

Bebo. Always Bebo.

Is this a short-term Big Time Gaming effect or a longer term issue with lack of ideas of new games?

They're facing simply more competitors than before. New gaming providers keep on popping up and they all take a share of the pie. Also, on platforms like Quickfire and NYX you'll find more and more games of more and more providers.

They'll have to come up with something better, but I don't see it happening on the short term.

 

[burgstrom]

I’m still around - apologies it’s been a busy few weeks. The regulations are requiring a few things from us that we have to take care of. As soon as I have some idea I’ll come back to you!

[slotmaster]

Regulations smegulations let's go!. Our government is too stupid and too busy at it's coming to election time to bother ya's. Actually gives me time to work on the twitch channel maybe.

 

[Supababe]

@burgstrom
Welcome x

The easiest way to hush the doubters would be to speak to @LadyJelena (perhaps also the boss too??) and run a small exclusive comp here at CM.

Special comps always welcome x
BTW I enjoy many netent games and can’t see why they get such a bashing really x x x

 

[Cody7]

Well try playing here in australia the game providers are awful i would kill to be able too play netent

 

[bebo67]

Running a netent promotion leaves the countries that can't play at an unfair advantage.

Ummm, how can I help here?

Some here (including me) doubt the authenticity of @burgstrom who claims to work for the software developer. If you or the Meister can confirm, thanks!

 

[dunover]

Yes, at present I feel he's as genuine as Oceanbet's software.

 

[VismundCygnus]

Yes , when I hear there is a new netent release I don't feel any curiosity/excitement to play it because you know exactly what to expect . 3 scatters bring a mediocre bonus . Ingame features which pay 2x or 5x etc Nothing much of interest . And the graphics are nothing special either
Compare it to a blueprint game with far superior graphics and way bigger variety of features such as king kong cash or jungle jackpots . These games also pay fairly low variance like netent but they are far more interesting to play . Then you have BTG of course with the insane potential and innovative concepts . Merkurs are simple games but they can pay massive so that ensures their popularity . Novos and microgaming have their followers although a lot of their new releases are a bit samey also . But I can't imagine anyone saying Netent is their favourite provider ? Even quickspin games are more fun and better produced these days !

Netent's last big release was Planet of The Apes I believe and that is a real dud imo . Boring basegame , boring random features that don't pay and scatter bonuses that give you a disappointing 10-50x pretty much always

Just gotta ask about this, do you really think this is the case? Do more people consider Blueprint graphics good? My opinion, which I honestly thought was the boring mainstream view, was that NetEnt make games with medium-high gfx (around 4/5) and Blueprint make games with weak graphics (say 2/5). Exception for BP was TED which actually looks good.
