Official Videoslots presents Battle of Slots!

What are the battle qualifications? I don't play them very often.
But I played a few battles earlier.
When I tried to register for the current one. I get a message saying I need to have 2500xp to register.
I thought it was 1000xp, which I'm currently above. Have I really dropped 1500xp over the last couple of hours?

Hi @brianmon

You are correct, you need 1000 xp to register, there has been an issue where the wrong requirements are showcased preventing players from joining the battle, the issue is being addressed and we expect a replacement battle with the correct requirements to be up on a few minutes.

Kind Regards
Team Videoslots.

 

[Team.Videoslots]

Hi all,

The battle was replaced with another one with the correct requirements.
We apologise for the inconvenience.

Kind Regards.

The £5 ticket is better anyway IMO because you can buy into a £5 freezeout. Whereas I think the only £10 battle is a rebuy…which can obviously get more expensive to have a chance at any joy in.

how is better £5 ticket? you need to gamble again and chances to win are like 5%, if you get 75 spin you get some money on £0.50

A £5 ticket is a better ticket than a £10 ticket is what I was saying…not that a £5 ticket is better than 75 spins on 50p stake.

Rubbish x 100

Actually makes the fishing games look awesome

 

[spoo42]

The Floating dragon game is a floating turd of a game. Does make the fishing games look good. Is amazing literally how it does.. nothing. Aweful game, thought it when i first saw/played it, and think the same now.

Wow I just learned that on popeye when you get all the hearts the expanding popeye wilds expand the entire reel including the extra ways, kinda sad that it took this long to even see that wild to find out though.

Yeah, this is why I said its not a bad game for RAW.

You can get multiple reels covered in wilds, unlikely but imagine 4 harps on JATB but with ways instead of win lines, potential is really there for this one but unlikely any of us will see the multiple K hits.

You'd end up with a win like this ?

Wow! - I managed £300 odd years back and thought I'd done well, makes my win look like pocket change lol

Can you share with us the changes to the wheel of jackpots? It says to check the page but I can't work out what has changed

 

[Itaghai]

@Team.Videoslots

Can you share with us the changes to the wheel of jackpots? It says to check the page but I can't work out what has changed

I think the difference is that now the chance to get a wheel is random.

At least before in the page of the wheels it had the description of the different wheels (blue, green, red, etc.) and now they removed it.

So maybe no more wheels through achievements or level up.

Edit: Also, I don't know if any of you noticed but the 250€ in battle tickets, battles, got reduced to 150€.
Not sure If it's only today's battles or the other days as well

 

[Team.Videoslots]

Hi all,

The wheel is now awarded randomly, and is no longer rewarded by reaching certain levels or earning achievements. All versions of the wheel have been removed and consolidated into a single Wheel, which is why the description of the different wheels has also been removed.

Kind Regards.

Do different bet sizes have different chances of getting a wheel?
So, none of the achievements reward a wheel? Not even the 10000 wins?

Hi @Itaghai ,

You can win a Wheel of Jackpot spin regardless of the size of your bet or choice of game in the Jackpot Games, Live Casino, Slots or Video Slots categories on the website. The chance increases in correlation with the size of your bet and the game's payout percentage. A game with a lower percentage increases the chance of winning compared to a game with a higher percentage.

Regarding achievements, that is correct, achievements no longer count towards receiving a wheel reward.

Kind Regards.

and if thats the case i play my freeroll time and close my account .. check somepoint this site again , but probably there isnt anymore freerolls or nothing

 

[jeretee]

25e for level 90.

thats sad

 

[09237653]

Umm so as understand it achievements are completely pointless and worthless now?

And you wonder why we just play here for battles and do our real play elsewhere.

Grinding trophies was the only thing left that was making me ever go over 1000xp/30 days.
totaled up about 8 games on my account which are missing only 10k wins, some of those I have been working on for years.

Only point to delete old system is saving money.
MrVegas has been offering this "new system" for years and i can say from experience:
It's totally impossible to win anything if you are low roller. About 30k points with low stakes and one "random" wheel collected.
New system and more cuts that's the way

I remember last year it was said here that the player budget will not be cut. They've cut out everything i can't see any sector that is better than half a year ago. No player feedback like "wow that's nice they give something more somewhere". More value in wheels example. No, there is less value in wheels than half a year ago.

Even halving the freerolls and 5min queues wasn't enough. They have cut more from freerolls.
Same stuff with mrVegas.

Sit n Go's in VS are shit because ridiculous long queues. Freerolls are shit because stupid low prizes. Weekend booster is shit. 500e wager get about 2-3 euros back. Tuesday madness okay but chance to win something maybe 20%.
So there is Battle weekend. 48h is great and only sit n go-promotion which has worked relatively flawlessly this year.
But i think 1000xp because Battle weekend only is pretty high requirement. If you don't want to give anything else back just drop it to 500xp. Weekly Sit'n Go's are waste of time because queues and you don't want to do anything to make things better

Only queues on monday and thursday, they vanish on 48h weekend battle. In the long run they are shooting themself in the foot.

I can see why they've done this and it makes perfect sense - they've scaled the frequency of awards with the amount staked, so the more you bet the more you get. It's really the only fair way of doing it - why should someone who bets 10p a spin and fills in all the achievements for a slot get the same as someone who bets £2 and therefore 20x the amount? High-rollers will see the benefit of this change and they're the players you need to retain in order to be a viable business.

Low-rollers will complain but where are they going to go? William Hill? VS is still a good site and low-rollers will still get a good game, plus there are promotions from Monday to Thursday, and Battle Weekends which let's face it, high-rollers aren't interested in anyway.

Costs are being cut everywhere - it's just more noticeable on VS because they gave away the most and therefore have the most stuff to cut back.
Good times don't last forever.

 

[Itaghai]

Today we have one of the best battles setup:

• 10-man Battles: Legacy of Dead (Play'n GO) €0.10
• 30-man Battles: Gods of Giza (Pragmatic Play) €0.20

And as you can see, Play N Go is still being used in the battles.

They will go where they get higher rtp, vip treatment and more deposit bonuses. Waiting in queues for 10min to play a battle is not optimal.

Hi @Jono777

Thank you for asking,
You will no longer get a wheel every 5 levels, wheel of Jackpot will be awarded randomly, any other type of wheel has been removed.

If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Kind Regards.
Team Videoslots.

 

[Mr Wild]

Hi,

Just to make things clear of the changes and why they are happening. Please see below.

1. The amount we give back in form of promotion is still the same on the total. Its not same for each individual. The budget is exact the same as 1-2 years ago.
2. The old system was only still live for UK and MGA customers at VS. It is a lot of manual work to create trophies, set them up and then add rewards behind them. Also a lot of manual work to keep all wheels up to date. All these trophies also slowed down the system. We currently have 120,000 unique trophies that updates in real time.
3. Unfortunately we did have a lot of abuse on the trophies and this took reward budget from our customer that actually spend money with us.
4. We are trying to rebuild the system so it actually gives rewards equally to all customers based on % of what they wager.
5. The new wheel on average triggers 14x times more often and it pays out minimum 50fs. Before you got the better XP wheel once every £50,000 wager.
6. The wheel is still based on wager, but it do triggers randomly as a normal win in a game. This helps a lot in countries that starts doing bonuses forbidden, such as Sweden, Spain and maybe even UK soon.

And yes, all customers that did benefit on the old system will defiantly not like the new one. But now its getting fairer for everyone and easier for us to maintain.

 

[Itaghai]

6. The wheel is still based on wager, but it do triggers randomly as a normal win in a game.

So according to this point, the chance to win the wheels is not completely random, right?

Let's say you wager 10k in a 95% RTP game, could this amount trigger a random number of wheels or is it set to trigger the same amount?
As an example, if we wagered the 10k and got 3 wheels, should we expect to win another 3 wheels in the next 10k or it could be less/more?

If they still completely random, I still have another question. Is there any system to guarantee you a wheel if you have a "dry streak"?
With this I mean, imagine wagering 50k, is there any backend job looking at the wagers and when it reaches a limit if the player didn't win any wheel, they will be awarded one?

Now going back to point 4:

4. We are trying to rebuild the system so it actually gives rewards equally to all customers based on % of what they wager.

Did you guys ever thought about making the events (mystery mondays and epic thursdays) tier based?
This is an example, the xp in there is meant to be monthly xp acquired:

• Tier 1 - 1000 xp to 2500 xp
  • Level 1 battles: Standard battles of 0.10€ and 0.20€ with standard rewards
• Tier 2 - 2500.01 xp to 4000 xp
  • Level 2 battles: Two games of 0.20€ rewarding FS of 0.20€, even if the minimum amount for the game is 0.10€
• Tier 3 - 4000.01 xp to 10000 xp
  • Level 3 battles: 0.20€ or 0.25€ game and a 0.30€ or 0.40€ game
• Tier 4 1000.01+ xp
  • Level 4 battles: two games of 0.40€

I'm not sure how it would impact the budget, to be honest, but it might keep the players trying to reach an average tier instead of grinding just 1000 xp. It also rewards the people that wager more and since it split the players into categories it would most likely help with the queues.

If you guys keep a record of all the rewards given out during those events, I'm sure you can run a simulation with some average results, although it might be a lot of manual work and it might be heavy in the servers to run all the data.

Yes its completely random, but chance increases with wager and selection of game. You get higher chance to win in a game that gives more XP than to one that gives less XP. The chance is based on XP. So a game of 98% rtp has less chance than a game of 95% rtp.

The challenge with Battles is due to the different rules in different countries. An option is to run battles locally, but that would of course make them smaller and create a lot more work. For now I don't believe there will be such changes. But you never know.

If you transform everything we give back each month to customers, this equal to 15-18% cashback on player losses wager free. I wouldn't call that shit and I personally are not aware of any site given back more than that.
