Question What slot features do you hate?

Not a feature as such but when Break Da Bank Again says "Congratulations. You have won £0.00." After another awful free spins feature has completed really is trolling!!
 
And generally i absolutely HATE blueprint slots..
low variance , zero potential and too rigged..
Jungle Jackpots from BluePrint = 27 sessions and only once i ended the session with 100 percent + RTP (still only 137 percent)
all the other sessions i finished with 18 percent - 40 percent RTP.. hit several times feature which did not pay ANYTHING and 3 times bonus which paid 5x bet, 5xbet and 10xbet..
If that would happened on Knights Life or any BTG slot - then fine, because these slots can pay over 2000x/bet in one bonus.. but blueprint slots has NO POTENTIAL to hit something big!
 
Yes the zero win congrats especially on slots that pay no trigger win.

Lots of just miss the 3rd scatter slowrolls on quickspin games.
 
What’s worse for me is the way some telegraph the feature coming in.
And slow spinning the final reels, even though you know it isn’t going to hit.
Pointless
 
Another one that annoys the piss out of me related to my above post, the magic peanut feature on pink elephants, gives two free nuts and then no third one lands, why even bother?
 
I hope that I am posting this is the most appropriate thread but I am very disappointed with some of Play and Go games. Not because they never pay and features are terrible because I enjoy greatly their games. What I think is poor is to have games where the point of your mouse will change from an arrow to a "pointing finger" when you click the girls "cleavages"! Or boobs... t... chests.. whatever you prefer to call it. It is tasteless in my opinion and unnecessary.

Look at the screen shots that I have enclosed. Your mouse point will change to a finger ONLY when you point to the girl chest!

In the case of Moon Princess is even worse because some Pervert made the time to include voice with your click! When you click on the Princess cleavage it will say YEAH! with this boyish voice!

Just unbelievable. No need to say that you will not find your mouse point changing to a finger when you point to Rich Wildes or any other guy "parts". LOL

Have you seen this before? I know sex sells and all that crap but really? Tasteless!

cheers

Oh my god! I just booted up Moon Princess to try it. That's a creepy little easter egg.
 
Not really a feature so to speak ,but a design failure I hate ...

Middle age glasses wearer , that is bad enough, but playing btg millionaire new box one , even with glasses on it is hard to see the balance .

So unless slots companies want eyesight discrimination lawsuits, please make the fonts larger on phones

Much better on landscape mode,but I would much rather hold a phone the normal way . So developers please check all screen sizes and ratios with young and old people. :laugh::axeman:
 
No pay on 2 scatters is a big one for me but some other ones:

Black Mamba is a great game, and I like it a lot, but the clear line on the bottom row (Martina) shouldn't even play when there's no portrait character or wild on the bottom row because it literally cannot make a win and it's a stupid waste of time. Also unless you have Fred as the active character, you cannot get the bonus if only 3 portraits are on screen as there's no way for the other two to get the bonus unless you clear the entire grid, which is already semi rare. It makes the round hugely disappointing, I would make it so there's a chance of Martina swooping in with a portrait wild on the bottom line in the base game, and her portrait wild counts as a portrait.

Teases where if the symbol goes past when you're watching, you know you're not getting it.

Jackpot games where the smallest prize is barely 2x your bet. Just give it to me less often if you're going
to smack me around like that.

Also pay extra to double the feature. Are you doubling 0.05-1% of a chance? What % chance are we doubling here.

I personally think Black Mamba is an awful "sequel". Changing the rotation of the characters around from moon princess/rise of olympus was a bad idea, having Fred come last is just plain awful and Martina is. trash 99 out of 100 times.

To be fair, for as long as I've tested the game has performed well in general, but I would never swap out rise of olympus for black mamba as it just feels boring compared to the older games.
 
I feel like alot of the new slot-releases does this thing where bonuses that should be good (extra scatter triggers etc) are really bad, and the ones that looks like they are going to be crap suddenly suprise you with nice wins.

"Oh, i bet you thought this bonus was going to be bad, but SUPRISE bigwin, we are so clever"

Just let the bonuses that looks like they are gonna be good actually be good gosh darnit!

Its slots from all providers doing this, but the one that stands out the most is Thunderkick.
"oh a 10 scatter trigger and 100 extra spins, here have a 5x win"
ARGH!"

Elk and the Gold series of slots are notorious on this, they give you 7-17 freespins, and out of those 5 will be winning spins. Hit 6 scatters? Here's 10 deadspins, then your regular bonus begins.

Already won 100x? Let's completely block of any future wins by giving full 8-high reels of the same symbol on reel 2, 3 times in a row.

I will say Mamba is more likely than Rise of Olympus to give you your deposit back most of the time, but the large wins are extremely rare also. It has a higher floor for the bonus, but a lower ceiling. My average is 50x on the bonus, with the occasional 150x and it's not that hard to get but yeah, basically if you get a Cecilia bonus, Martina will never do anything and there will never be portrait characters along the bottom. Alexandria is basically all of my large bonuses, and it SHOULD have been Fred at least a few times with the portrait change. They really should add a high volatility option to this slot, which makes it so there's a low chance of Martina making a portrait wild even without a portrait or more than one portrait wild. That would make it probably ten times more exciting.
 
Probably said before but ‘napoleon’
Why program a dead feature into the game when it’s so hard to hit.
Not like it pays either unless your super lucky.

Your comment made me think of another one...

The respin games that don't pay on each respin drive me crazy (Valetta megaways, Chase, etc)
Like what good is the respin if it just might give you another symbol when it almost never makes it to the end this way, it's only a good feature if it's a repeat pay really.
 
Cascading reels are good about 3% of the time.

Having played a lot of a certain popular game recently, there's not much fun to be had watching the tenth cascade 'go on' in a row, to end up with 21p

Ohh look, three massive Js! And here comes the K to line up! Zzzzzzzz

Also, the gaps in cascades where you know nothing can be filled in it to make a win. I've just spent 20 seconds watching that play out and now it's blocked. Bastards.

Exactly! What is the need to implement features in game, which players cannot reach?

Players should realize that they can achieve every single feature.
 
Cascading reels

If you want a new ultimate cascading reels crapfest give Cygnus a go. Now many players complain about how “gimped” the reels feel on cascading slots. You know you’re never getting what you need. Well ramp this feeling up to 11. Cygnus only deals with 7 symbols and the sheer amount of time it cascades all the symbols you need on literally every other reel except the one you want will either have you putting a hole through your screen or, hopefully, laughing and moving on to something else.

Shame really as the game mechanic itself is quite good and original. Hopelessly executed however.

A lot has been mentioned I don't like. My most hated is
-Do you want to gamble for more?

Just remove the temptation. I've been stuck once or twice trying this, not anymore, I've learnt since. It'll pay what it wants.
