How much more?
I agree its a good point about the jp inc. Board entry cost is very high and this is a definite factor to decrease pub customer willingness to have a go. Bit demoralising also being into certain games for 70/80 pound inside 20 minutes despite early phones. The higher the jp the more the fixed controlled nature of the boxes kicks in and the less inclined skills are to play a part in any future game. Need some ton versions of battleaxe and rev that work on steps ha. Jesus anything similar with a bit more thought required and gameplay would fit the bill. Pretty boring time to play.Ruler of The World wrote:Why are jackpots on fruits increasing?

As far as I'm concerned, I think the best amount is £25-35. I just feel that's an amount which the punter feels is worth winning and not worth getting excessively upset about someone else winning. Also, it makes it less painstaking for us when we are having a hard time on them and not getting hundreds of pounds deep into them as with £70 and £100 variants.
I would be extremely happy to learn that this jackpot reduction will be made, I just don't see why they are so high now. Even looking at it from the punters' point of view, do they really want to be surrounded by such high jackpot machines everywhere they go? I doubt it very much.
I would be interested to read other peoples' views on this and sincerely hope it won't turn into a one liner filled thread ruined by the usual culprits.

Wow, we're actually on topic on page 2! Wonders will never cease!
Well, I agree with everything CJS says, of course it would be great if there were similar things to Battle Axe out there on £100, £80 nearest wins, skills you can hit jackpot on off a £20 feature, etc. They'd be great! But I think the companies are too aware of that stuff now. Pity! I'd love skills and thought to come back into these games rather than the crap we have to put up with now!
