Fruit Machine Chat

jus came into a a takeaway in my area seems ok like i read ages ago about this machine it was some peoples fav machine any tips would be kind thanks matty

sorry on £15 jpt

a classic mc

force full out for Hi-Lo notes on RED, it will give £15-£30-£45, had £60 once though. then play for afters, there is a guide on one of the Ebooks as well, this will tell you a knockback method that sends hi-lo notes nuts!!

look out for Locomotion upgrade, this can be a slow and easy £10 or JP

Note skill upgrade is an easy JP

if u get 4 first press on the board you will go on to a mystery, u are guaranteed invincibility....

also if you get 3 holds on the spiker head and there are two matching fruits on the win line, hold the fruits to get that win.

the best way to force these is exchanging in off a prize anyway...

hope this helps!

I posted for hints on another forum a few days ago

I eventually got on the machine, only to find the lights were the most random thing I have ever seen. Things were flashing, things were red, when i got cash, it added to features lol allsorts

Eventually, I got hi-lo notes literally from pressing the start button all the time

Went for £30 after £22 in, then £5 afters for £1 in.....

this is an older barcrest where its worth taking a jackpot first to get it streaking properly,

hi lo notes is good after the pot, but if you get a 3rd chance at the pot take the straight jackpot

so basicly look for this:

jackpot, hi lo notes, jackpot

or if it gives it early then just take the hi lo notes..


nudging in the heads onto the line when you are already in the upper bubble gives a boost.. so if you are close to the top think about using the nudges.. this way you will get a feature or cash amount and not just loads of upgrades..

In addition to the above - check out the 3 holds trick...i.e holdint the symbols for the first two - then if you get double symbols on the 3rd hold the hold these and the win will spin in....

Excellent for JP setup on the mellons

Barcrest cross-holds. I remember that. One of a kind wasnt it?

more commonly called "hold swapping"
and no it wasnt a one of a kind... loads of old machines use it, quite a few new ones too

What other Barcrests do? Not saying your wrong, just havnt seen any others 'hold swap'.

Lots of Barcrest's subsidiary Vivid do (or used to) . QOTD and PF's etc.

Yeah that hold swap on Spiker was genius!

whats a hold swap?? (apologies for my weak feeble mind)

Basically you'll probably know that if you get holds on reels three times in a row, the win spins in..

e.g.)

1) Hold two reels of cherries
2) Hold two reels of cherries again
3) Next spin you'll get the cherries.

However, I think this post refers to the fact that on the third spin (that will be the winner) you can actually change the things you hold and you'll get that as the winner.

I might be wrong though - that's what I thought it referred to though...LOL

Cheers B. I'll look out for it.

Look Out For The Bikers Eyes When First Starting A Feature If They Flash (I Think Its Twice) Its JP Board....

Also...If You Get a 4 or 8 First Press....75% Likley To Give Jackpot If It Gives Another Even After..... (Only Tried This On 10p 5Pounder)
