Ok
As a player using the paytable below what would you expect
Wild-Wild-Wild-Ace-King to pay on a payline?
View attachment 107037
If this is let's say only 1 line win on middle line (2nd line) then it would pay 0.25 since 3 wilds pay more than 4x A's. You only get the highest win on a win line, not multiple wins.
If it only paid 0.08 for 4 A's then its wrong that's for sure.
Not according to VS and Thunderkick i'm afraid...... Please all vote so we can show them its not what players expect.
The rules say the longest payline....So, if it was a scatter in place of the Ace it would have given the 3 wilds payout but with the Ace the longest payline is 4 Aces.
Yeah, looks like the Wild paytable only gets paid if blocked by a carrot
I know its right according to the paytable due to the longest, but I really thought that was a misprint for "Highest" which is the case on 99% of online slots.
The vote its to see what people expect it to pay given the "norm"
DOA only pays 3 and 4 OAK wilds, as wilds, if they're followed by a scatter. Otherwise it's a 4 or 5 OAK of the last symbol
This sort of thing is quite demoralising really. I genuinely do not want to hate on the industry and generally do not. I’ve often defended what many perceive as “rigged” or “not random”, but shit like this really makes it difficult. It’s also becoming more and more common for slots to use dubious practices to dupe players. It can be argued that often this is fairly unnecessary as well.
This design is another in what is becoming an extremely long list of poor things being inplemented/included in slots.

It's pretty irrelevant as it's just the way the developer has constructed the pay tables, which if you look at Microgaming who do the opposite for example, makes this incidence look anomalous. Agreed in that this construct seems to devalue higher Wild symbols, but as long as the game pays it RTP and this has been worked in to the values correctly it's fine. Just looks stooopid...
Edit: I have voted 4 aces by the way as technically that is correct!
I agree that its technically correct, but I wanted the vote to reflect what people would expect it to pay on a normal slot
It gets worst in the bonus as you often lose out on the 4 wilds with A,K,Q,J on the 5th reel etc, thanks for comments.
Ah, I remember when a few wilds on a game would get you a house, car, 5* holiday and still leave you enough for the BFH
Now one's lucky to scrape a box of matches
(half that when it comes to Thunderkick)
