Hi,

I was playing this (rainbow games) the other day another guy was playing the other game so community was on (showed 2 players in the little boxes)

After a few quid it took the other guy up to the feature and he got community pots or whatever it's called but my machine didn't go up just said please wait I queried this with the attendant as she had seen what had happened and she said I'd have to see the owner, I collared him a couple of days later and explained what had happened to which he told me not all games are community, I explained that this one was and it should have taken me up. he told me he would speak to barcrest and download the information to a usb stick for them to analyse.

 

A few days later he was back in the arcade and explained to me that he had spoken to Barcrest and that on that particular game if the % is so low on the machine that it cannot afford to pay out that it will not take that machine to the feature.

 

Has anyone else heard of this, doesn't seem right to me as the screen advertised 2 player community?

 

He did give me £10 worth of credits as a gesture but surely the pots would have been better as the bronze pot was around £30 and silver and gold were higher.

 

Thanks

i bet the your machine didnt have the network cable connected up as its happened to me once playing a raindow richies party on 70 quid 10p i had all 3 units on the go but got the bonus cheap enough but the other 2 didnt go up the problem was the engineer replaced the pc and didnt put all the cables back in

Thanks for the reply

Don't think it's a cable problem as it seems to work ok with the other games on the unit, money mad martians, mushrooms etc.

Still cant think what it would be though

ah well will keep an eye on it see if ot does it for anyone else

if it didnt have a network cable it wouldnt say look up.

 

the pots is only awarded to one person.

Hello.
I've bought a B3 rainbow riches and I've got someone telling me that they can give me a USB stick that I keep plugged in the machine and it will give me 25 extra games which will all work in real play (taking and paying out real money, not demo mode). Is this possible? It's obviously not legit but that doesn't bother me. I just want to make sure I'm not going to send him the money and end up being ripped off lol

ive heard some shit in my time, like press the buttons quickly so the computer doesnt have time to think, but that one wins first prize!!!!

 

all 3 terminals will stop until the feature has finished.

anybody can upload via USB all the games available, infact barcrest like you to do it so you can test each game to help you decide to buy it.

 

when you do purchase for real you get a USB stick with the game and also a modded USB stick with the license. this is transfered to the (MPU6?) and the game becomes playable in real play.

 

as for your 25 games in real play its either A, bollocks, or B, your getting 25x£1000 worth or licenses for ` a few quid`

 

 

 

i prefer the bollox explanation

i might have the wrong end of the stick here but the pots feature is offered to all players UNLESS one of them has had the countdown time out for taking to long to spin or use credits etc.

That's what I was trying to say, I have had this before and pots were awarded to both players, actually it was the other guy playing that triggered the pots, he got a bronze pot for about £16 and i got gold pot for £100. As I said before owner tried telling me that if the machine cannot afford to pay a pot then it wont offer it to that machine which is bullshit.
