What kind of slot do you prefer high frequency hit or HP bonuses

At the moment I tend to gravitate to the new high volatility games like Buffalo Gold, Jackpot Inferno, Buffalo Grand and Walking Dead 2, but when wanting to sit with a friend and just have a fun session and a drink I like those low volatility entertainment games. I think the more casual gamers who seldom go to the casino like my Mom who only gambles in Vegas a couple times a year and only then, prefers a game that is entertaining them by giving them constant low wins and sometimes the surprise of a good win. Generally if a game hasn't given Mom and some of my other friends who are like her a win by the 4th spin they are on to the next game. So I'm thinking that while the game manufacturer's are busy figuring out the psychology of the gambler they are finding out there are two distinct types and trying to make games for both groups and hoping there's a 3rd group of gamblers out there that possibly wants skill base gaming in the future.

 

Ww3 is probably game I play the most often. Not necessarily dollar wise - I will throw in a couple hundred a day on it if I'm in Vegas. 1st hundred is to lose in 1 minute and the second to confirm what just happened

 

In all honesty, this is probably one of the few slots I can absolutely say I am up on. I have an almost 10k hp on it (2.50 bet) and probably another random total of hp that add up to another 10k. I almost always use my fp on this game and usually at .05 denom 10$/spin to try and catch lightning in a bottle.

 

I don't mind the frequent return machines if I'm playing with someone and just want to sit awhile. But there's a limit. Like the 2-cent line hits and such on dollar-ish bets at penny slots. It feels insulting to me, like there's someone in the Marketing Department laughing, "Hey, let's distract The Humans with a lotta noise so they will feel like they're winning! They'll never catch on!"

 

More bonuses for me. If I don't hit a bonus in a while leave. Lower volatility, more time on the machine all day for me. I am the same way when I play VP, Jack or Bonus most of the time. I like to extend my time on the machine and time in the casino. I mean yeah I'd love a huge win (who wouldn't) but I hate going bust quickly, a real turn off for me.

 

Same with me. My BR is substantially smaller than most folks on this board, so when I play I need my time in the casino to last! I'm one of those people @Evoni described who gets up after the 4th spin if I haven't had a win, lol! I'd love a huge win as well, but honestly I'm happy if I can get enough small hits to keep me in the game and long enough to get some cocktails

Ditto, me too!

 

I too like to try and make my bankroll last as long as it can but always play a few of the high volitivity slots every session...you never know.

 

Momnkid I wanted to make the same exact shirt for our upcoming trip! Funny you beat me to it!

 

I play both ends, the Double Diamond machines with an 800/1,600 jackpot, and the Davinci and Cleo II, and that's usually it, very little in between. They sometimes have disappointing bonuses, but they're only disappointing in comparison to some of the big big hits you get when you play them enough. And they both also throw out big sub-W2-G line hits often enough.

I used to play the original Wizard of Oz which wasn't bad for a penny machine.

But these huge upright pennies with their $12 BIG WIN bonuses on a $4 or $8 bet? GTFO.

 

Wow, I'm not sure I've ever even seen a screenshot of that.

Davinci, I think I'm just comfortable with the volatility level when I'm in a hi-vol mood; I don't want to say it's predictable, cause I have gotten schmeissed a couple of times, but like any machine I guess, it's usually a matter of being able to outlast the vol, and big pays feel better than a lot of smaller ones.

The graphics and sound are appealing to me also, they're kind of soothing vs. Cleo II which is kinda clattery.

 

I hate the jackpots that are like $1220, if I'm going to get a handpay like that I rather take $1199 or less lol

 

For me it depends on the mood and the bankroll. If I'm in the mood for socialising and playing with friends low volatility is good with frequent bonuses to keep us playing. Same idea if I'm on a lower budget.
Sometimes I get the craving for a hardcore session of a good few hours of patience before that big bonus hits (if it ever hits....).

There's something more fun about hitting a bonus after waiting for ages, when you know there's a higher likelihood of a big win, right?

I can sit at a cooperative Wonder 4 Wonder Wheel for as long as it will cooperate. I've been know to do so for hours at a time - especially with the Patron Silvers flowing.
