barcrest... hero to zero

ob · Post by ob » Fri Jun 12, 2009 1:29 am

to me it looks like barcrest £70 machines will be the worst of all the new machines... pointless flat profiles...

At least bfm have dond styles that could give £70 on the DOND game, where crests clone of the dond game is rigged to the board value...

Yet to judge reds.... hopefully still same profile, as with globals...

BORECREST....

Right, a bit of red feedback for you all on this new day.

£70 land arrived here today, found 2 smash the cashes. Both £1 a go, numbers x4, and every board awards 2 bonuses on entry. Chased both as were ready, and both did £105 tops

Was expecting £140 after the 70 top finished and carried on, but looks like we've got odd tops to contend with. Who knows what amounts they'll do. Both were fair though, and profitable.

I also chased a £70 star wars CYDI clone as it offered £10er shot first board. £36 middle pot off £30, cost £127 for a £90 top, £9 afters. Not really going to find it much more ready are you.....never again. Only did it for a laugh as it was new ground, but i'll save you all the effort. God knows what it'd cost another time.

Also got a lucky £50 box off a £5er on DOND perfect game on a red box board. These look fairly brutal though. Rainbow riches et al are a joke, crests pointless. Very hard times ahead unless you;ve got some nice reds about, or some old upgrades like Cluedo etc. Time will tell.

played a 70 red terminator , was redding up from the off , (not from my own investment to guarantee 2) cost 50 for 70 no repeat , put the 20 prof back for 2 dead boards ,

so none the wiser ,,,,,, if you make em red up from investment , will they even offer two?

dont like the odd tops from the mattb smash the cash post.

still havent seen an indy/hi-lo upgrade

worrying times ahead indeed

seen plenty of new beards though lol

Found an indy £70 today.....£1 spin you get a mega board with super bonuses (arks/extra lives etc added on entry). Was very ready from brand new, got 3 arks off £28 for a £100 top. £10/£20/£50 multiples, so no £105 here, but another odd amount to chalk up. Also had a board after, £1 spins seem to do red boards all the while that are dead and blocked, so beware. Not sure about feature as never offered.

Indy/HiLo are the only machines I'm actually looking forward to trying out, based on what people have been saying over the last few days.

This could well become a game of trying to find decent old £35 JP machines in a few weeks time, when much of the utter shite we've seen over the last 2 years suddenly looks quite playable.

A £70 fruit stepper would be nice.

You say you had an Indy with 10/20/50 multiples
I have just played a £70 Hi lo that had 10/15/70 on the top
It did a £95 after £50 in off shoes

i got feature today bopped on middle then went up 1 then came in 3 lemons
so maybe they all are chipped
anyone else had feature yet?

Tbh I hope they are
Everyone plays them solely for it
I admit I had a habit of doing it before
So so dead most of the time cos of it
Maybe they will be better now
Found one ready on £70 yet one close by on £35 was fooked
So maybe it is chipped out

Same here, i hope it gets taken out too so you can go back to some sort of normality. People just play them out for the sake of it on £35. If its gone i think it can only be good

Lets hope it is still skill - the timeout

ob · Post by ob » Sun Jun 14, 2009 1:22 am

yeh thankgod if it doesn't work, will stop people just playing them regardless... SO stupid but so many idiots won't stop doing it on 35 ones.

sharky007 · Post by **sharky007** » Sun Jun 14, 2009 1:59 pm

yeah agree that it should be better of if it dont work just start playing them normal again when they first came out
see what happens
