:mad: about a year I was playing spamalot progressive at bet365, betting $2 a spin and got into the progressive win stage, the jackpot was 7.7 million, I got all the way to the top where you make a selection of 2 choices and picked $0. Holy ol' Christ! are you kidding me? 7.7 mil or nothing. I forgot all about this till I came to this thread and finally read it. Jezzuz Moses that tee'd me off for months:p lol now I'm all pissed again!:D
 
The four scatter bonus trigger of doom. What is the point carrying on with the bonus round when it is not going to pay anything worth talking about :eek:

Hahaaha...yes ..I call it the Four scatter kiss of death. What is the point. I suppose we should be happy for the four scatters pay.....
 
Worst Features:
Picking Symbols
Free Spins with horrible multiplier

Best Features:
Free Spins with sticky/random wilds
Free Spins with high multipliers (lucky 88 has X88, 300 shields has X300)

I agree.

Best:
Lucky angler
DOA

Worst:
Golden shamrock
Wizard of Oz
 
Any bonus round where you have to choose from several symbols and behind at least one is a monetary award of 1-5x bet just brings me to a seething rage. I know the result would be the same but I'd much prefer getting let's say free spins with lots of dead spins and winning 5x bet to just winning 5x bet outright.
 
So you came here and opened an account just to shill and promote some casinos???

Not what this site is intended for...........you have been reported.


Combination of base game and bonus along with catchy music and HD graphics……
Daily COLLECTION BONUSES provide extra coins for extended play!

Agree with so many of these!!

Admittedly, I am still new to playing slots so often don't bother to really scrutinise the paytables/rules enough and I haven't quite got my head around 'Locked Reels' / 'Sticky/Stacked/Walking Wilds' and so on. I just like to play a few different games that might appeal to me based on name/picture etc and then see how it goes once I start spinning! But a few of these listed previously have irked me when playing, my top peeves so far include:

Scatters/Wilds for bonus features only activate if appear on selected reels
No wins for 2 Scatters
Scatter symbol appearing when every wheel spins up Wilds so blocks wins
Free Spin Rounds with no retriggers or the retrigger needed never ever appears
Free Spins with 5 or less like in Wild North or on the other hand, games with 10 or more spins that just never ever seem to win anything worth the time spent watching them go round and round!
Reels that don't 'spin' like Gonzo or Pyramid style ones where the symbols just drop tetris-like... Or even reels that don't seem to spin enough, I like to think it's giving me a good chance by spinning through a few times:laugh:

And yes, like some of you guys, so not a fan if when a game reveals the other options when having to pick an image for the bonus prize! I don't want to know what could of been thanks haha :p
 
I hate it when scatters/bonus symbols drop in on the fourth and fifth reels, where they have no chance of triggering a feature (or even a win, in some cases) yet still play a sound effect when they drop. Play'n Go is guilty of this on many of their slots.

It's such an easy fix coding-wise, and it gives the slots themselves a really amateur-ish feel when it happens.
 
I hate that guy in Avalon II. He shows up, and you can't hurry him. He just waves his hands, don't give much money, and makes me angry.
 
Mega Fortune.. jackpot wheel feature always on the last wheel you get shit been so close on the mega for so long..
Hitman freespins so effin bad its not even exciting to trigger it..
Hulk Smash feature... dont need to write here i guess :p
Kronos/Zeus Freespin feature won an exciting 0,45€ on 25 freespins yesterday.
Dragon Born freespins... .... ....
2 unpaying scatters on any game. And scatter symbols in general on reel 4 and 5..
 
When you finally hit 3 scatters after waiting 100s of spins , only to be given the pick me on the scatters between an insulting 2x coin win , a crappy bonus or the only decent bonus . Treasure Island is guilty of this or the old Wizard of Oz game (before ruby slippers) . Wait all that time and STILL don't get a bonus makes me so tilted

Also , that really crap random wild feature on Breakout where it just gives you one wild reel and then when you hit a win it just stops , unlike the base game where the symbols disappear and more drop down (collapsing reels ?)

Oh and any feature that depends on you playing the slot forever to earn "achievements" in order to reach the bonus
 
slots where you choose objects on a bonus round to uncover money. Mermaids millions, etc

I always feel responsible that I chose incorrectly even if I know that the bonus money is predetermined and it didn't matter which object or symbol I chose. :cool:
 
Oo - getting the bonus symbols on lines 1,2 and 3 and STILL not getting the bonus because not a pay line (Gonzo)

These are the so called lef to right scatters.
I actually like games with these.
For one, it's something different, and they usually have a higher scatter frequency
to make up for it somewhat.
And when you do get them most of them you are in for a real treat.:thumbsup:
 
Most annoying feature is sticky wilds where miraculously all the wilds disappear for 9/10 spins only to get 3 well placed wilds on the last spin for a 20x and huge potential except no spins left :mad:
 
On Pyramid(NET-ENT) When you start a flurry of the wilds only to have the run ruined by symbols you didn't need for example have the wilds there and get kings but also 3 irritating jacks which ruin the combos/run. grrr! Didn't want ya jacks!! :mad::mad: It stops the next 3 wilds appearing because too many symbols fall. The best combo is just symbols at the top row for ages then when on a big multiplier by all means have ACES or whatever to make my mega win!
 
dont like hold feature in classical 3 reel 1 line slot machines.. dont know why but it irritates a lot.. maybe the reason that i dont like this kind of slots themselves))
