BORING BORING BARCREST

Post by ob »

Right if anyone who works at barcrest reads this; your £70 machines are boring and pointless, no one will like them.

There is no point in having a machine on £70 jackpot, if you have to put a minimum of £90 in to get it. Why have you rigged your superboard games, ie. its amazing super feature, to not be able to give the bigger prizes.... nobody will like this style of machine.

The reason bell fruit games are so popular is you could easily put in a few quid and get a big win ie.£40/70, whether you are an experienced player or casual player.

Now played quite a few £70 machines and have to completely agree with Ob - Barcrest really have gone about it the wrong way.

BFM for once aren't fibbing - they really are 'leading the way' - simply by making the bigger prizes obtainable.
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

There really is no point in Barcrest at all these days, a real shame because it was the best manufacturer once upon a time :(

Please Nixxy... you have got to be kidding me? Now whilst I agree that barcrest are poo to say that BF are 'leading the way' because you can obtain larger wins is just plain crazy, have you pushed one through yet? They are awful, if you have got results on any BF then you must have caught it at the right time.

The trouble with this forum, is that you can't get all kinky and say exactly what the truth is. Somebody with the wrong sort of ear WILL be listening, so not wanting to be all MI6 about it, as there isn't that much to the picture, but unfortunately all I can say is I partially disagree and partially agree with some of the things written here.

My point was a comparative one. Of the two manufacturers, my view is that BFM have made a better fist of the transition from £35 to £70 than Barcrest. That doesn't necessarily make their games a whole lot better - and yes I've pushed a couple through - but from what I've experienced so far, I think BFM have put forward a more intelligent offering than Barcrest have.

But it's early days yet, and I have yet to see/play any of the new releases listed on the Barcrest website. My opinion is open to change :)
