An insight into manufacturers mindset

Browsing the concept games website, and stumbled across this gem :-
As an arcade owner, are you sick and tired of getting it in the neck from some player or other because your magic machine just gave them a three hundred pounds dry spell after giving the previous player a huge two hundred pounds run ? Have you noticed that contrived club machines disguised as AWPs are creating more unrest in YOUR arcade ?
So you just put out your £675 magic dragons S16. *lol*. I daresay the operators got more headaches from your multinudge emptier, which is still going.
Are you sick and tired of seeing predators watch a player doing badly and diving onto the machine to get the goodies that he or she should have had.?
Well, if someone has left a machine, then they wouldn't have won it, would they ? Why would an operator care if someone was playing his machines, regardless of whether it was a shark or not ? If people are playing a fruit (with no s/w flaws), it's making money. End of. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the goal of an operator.
Are you sick and tired of seeing the same smart Alecs refusing nudges and deliberately avoiding wins in order to try and gain advantage on a compensated machine?
No interaction with the machine allowed. Read and agree to this EULA before playing.. jesus.
Wouldn't it be nice if a player could win or lose without feeling got at ? Nobody could tamper with the game to gain unfair advantage and there would be nothing to be gain by watching others lose and jumping onto machines.

WELCOME TO RED HOT FEVER

Because this machine is completely RANDOM it is never knowingly cruel. It doesnt know what it is doing!

BUT WE DO!!!!
They are doing something we didn't anticipate.. why you.. you.. "smart alecs!". The last bit is even more amusing. "We know what it's doing *snigger*"

The people it's talking about shouldn't be allowed near a fruit machine on the grounds that they're retarded.

the idea peddled about is - If a player loses on a randon machine they dont feel ripped off and are happier as they feel they lost fair and square. Hence a nicer enviroment for all.

mmmm - try telling that to the guy who put 3k into a slotto with fuckall out. I'm sure he's ok about it and doesn't feel like putting a stool through the screen - much!

Are these money grabbing fucktards for real!

Fair play to G Brown for ahalting the casino - its about time someone stepped in to stop these arseholes exploiting the poor, uneducated masses.

You can't expect anything more from a two-bob rebuild outfit such as this. Their gameplan is to wait for other companies to come up with innovative games, before steaming in and doing rehashes of them as quickly as possible. The anti-player stance was a thinly-veiled attempt at endearing themselves to naive and gullible operators who think anyone under 30 who plays machines is a thief.

The name 'Concept Games' is hardly an apt description of their business, seeing as they never come up with new concepts, but instead wait for others to do so. Red Hot Fever was just a bad clone of Novomatic's Ultra Hot, of which Novomatic have sold tens of thousands around Europe, and Concept sold about 10 of theirs, half of which went back after 30 days test, or should I say 30 days 'I want to test a new machine to make my arcade look up-to-date, I'll keep all the money it earns before sending it back regardless of performance minus 3 button legends and with the coin mech swapped out for one I've had in my workshop for a year and a half. I don't want to buy this machine under any circumstances, I just want free cash! And if it does take good money and it looks like I'm going to have to buy it, I'll simply unplug the machine for a week and tell MDM that the punters have got fed up with it'.

I remember they used to run ads in Coinslot with the "wave goodbye to the wide boys" crap. Hey i've just lost a grand but, because it was on a random machine, that makes it ok! Party on!
