Skill Based Slot Machines

[maydna]

Probably, this is just another strategy of the casinos so that players will be more tempted to play slots and would be somehow deceived that it’s not anymore a game of pure luck but certainly all about skills too. Beginners might believe on this and manage to play but lose more, but for long time gamblers they will never see slots that will increase your winning chances but still a game of pure luck that will only make you lose if you’re not lucky enough.

Yes, casinos will use a lot of strategies to be able to keep players playing gambling at their casinos. Perhaps, the casino will provide other attractive offers so that players will think this is a good time to continue gambling even though it does not guarantee they can win. And these players will also think that they can use special strategies to help them win, even though playing slot games requires luck. And only the wise gambler who understands this will not be tempted by the many attractive offers from the casinos.

I play slot because of its randomness, it unpredictability. And purely because of it's luck factor. I am consider myself as a luck person so some extent. Skill based slots sounds boring and like a lot of work to me. As an oldie, II am not going to change my ways because if you consider it critically, you would see that traditional slots wins at the end of the day.

This is what I also think. Slot machines should always be a game of luck which is based on unpredictable nature. Also, I think casinos would be in the middle since there has been some market of these skill based machines but I think majority of people engaging in gambling would prefer the traditional way of gambling that is unpredictable. It could also be intimidating to some since it would require more game mechanics rather than the simpler way of traditional slot machines. But it is a great concept to think since there would be way to increase your chances of winning through these skill based slot machines. It might not be for everyone but it has potential to attract some customers since even me is intrigued on these new concepts regarding slot machines.

I think almost every single player that plays at slots machines would like the traditional features of a slot where you make a spin and wait to see what your luck has brought you and the joy of getting a big win or hitting a very high multiplier takes you to a totally different world, but honestly, I don't mind having another feature in a game where I can multiply my chances of winning.

I mean, what's wrong with a slot machine with all its traditional features but having an extra layer of fun as a bonus round that requires you to showcase your skills and get more chances or spins or whatever it has got to offer?

It's more thrilling and exciting if we don't know the outcome of the game than if we already know the results. There is no challenge in it. It's boring although the good thing is we can earn a profit but if you are already wealthy, you can care less about the money. There's also poor people who doesn't praise money that much. For them, there are other things which are more important than it. Gambling is meant to entertain us, not to give us a stress.

Most of us are already working for longer hours and we don't want to add more work by analyzing and creating a strategy only to win on this skill-based slot games. Many old person are weak and they can not think critically anymore. If you are one of it then yes, don't bother changing your style.

I think you're missing the point here. I don't believe that the aim of casinos or slot game developers is to mislead players, but rather to lure them with new, unique and captivating concepts. While it's true that slots are primarily based on luck, introducing new gameplay mechanics and features can make the experience more exciting for players. In fact, some players may even develop their own strategies or preferences when playing slots. It's important to remember that casinos are businesses, and their goal is to make a profit. If introducing new slot game features and mechanics can help attract more players and increase revenue, then it makes sense for them to do so.

As far as we know, that slot machine games are included in the type of game based on pure luck. even so, there are many methods that we believe in with the various techniques we use to get the desired results. but so far, it's not really proven. in fact, all of that is a mere myth even though many gamblers still believe in it. in this thread, we are given an article link that contains luck-based slot machines. well, actually the source of the article was written 2021 ago. it's just, we just heard about it.

Despite all that, what @Viscore said is quite reasonable. related to his statement that said, maybe this is just a casino strategy. but in fact, we have not had a single claim from the casino to date that it is reported that they have a skill-based slot machine innovation. Or maybe, we don't have that information.

Well, and I also agree with what you said @decodx. it is very clear, that slot game developers design in such a way as to entice gamblers with concepts that are new, unique, and captivating. and all aimed at entertainment for us gamblers. which in essence, whatever innovation they develop, be it luck-based or skill-based, basically everything boils down to the business that the casino runs. so, it's only natural that they offer something interesting for connoisseurs of slot machines, apart from the profits they get

Besides even if the element of luck was removed then we need to wonder if the game is still considered a gambling game at all? If I am not mistaken chess or at least one of the variants of chaturanga called chaturaji was played with dice, making it a gambling game, but once you remove this element then it would become a game of skill.

So even if slots add an element of skill for the player, at the end the most important factor when it comes to winning is still their luck, as it is unlikely any casino will implement a slot machine with a bonus which will make them to lose any money.

Probably, this is just another strategy of the casinos so that players will be more tempted to play slots and would be somehow deceived that it’s not anymore a game of pure luck but certainly all about skills too. Beginners might believe on this and manage to play but lose more, but for long time gamblers they will never see slots that will increase your winning chances but still a game of pure luck that will only make you lose if you’re not lucky enough.

This is probable, slot machines are by far the most profitable gambling game at psychical casinos, and it would not surprise me if this was the case as well when it comes to online casinos, and as such casinos want to encourage more gamblers to try them.

And adding an element of skill seems to be the answer they came up, which is not bad, as even if luck is still the main factor which decides whether you win or lose, an element of skill can make slots way more interesting than what they are already.

so, it's up to the gamblers to choose which slot games, most importantly, they can enjoy every bet.

How skills could really be applied on playing on slots? Are there possible ways on applying out strategy or methods on making yourself having the edge towards or against with playing slot? I dont retally think so that it

would be something that applicable or something that could be possible since we know on how do slots works.We know gambling games does have different types which there are luck based and there are strategic.
There's no way that slots could really be put up on something that do needs strategy because thats not how it works.We know on how easy to roll up those slots and wait up for the results of those texttiles or
characters to go in line. If ever there would be ones who do able to make one then i would be that so curious on what it would looks like.

There are some slots released that were skill based and depends on the reflex of a player when to stop the reels.  But nowadays it is not around on online casinos anymore.  Because once the player gets the timing, the player will surely win every time he plays.

Here is an explanation about skill-based slot machines: https://pasoroblesdailynews.com/skill-based-slot-machines-what-are-they-and-how-do-they-work/122533/

It would be nice if there is a slot machine like this since this kind of machine will give players more chances of winning.

I agree with you completely.I think the players just like this principle of randomness and unpredictability,because there is excitement in the game.I also think that it makes no sense to look for some kind of winning schemes in slot machines, since they simply will not work.Also, you rightly noted, at the end of the day the game will always be in the plus,but the player is already questioning whether he will have a profit or not.

[LUCKMCFLY]

From what I read, the major difference between this skill based slot machines and the regular/traditional ones we know is that there is a bonus round for the players to² display their skills which gives them a greater chance of winning. Despite this, the odds are still stacked up against the player.
Has anyone here tried it out?
Which do you prefer, traditional slots or skill-based slots?

This is very interesting- I have never heard nor encountered a "skill-based slot machine" type of game since it is generally known as a game where it involves pure luck. The problem with slots is that you have no control over the process to which it arrives at a result. You push the lever and hope for the best that it lands on triple 7s, etc.

Now that the world is changing and innovations are being introduced daily, I wonder how they can introduce and integrate skill in a game on which it is based purely on luck. Though if this were to happen, I would still avoid slots due to its very nature and core relying purely and solely on luck rather than skill.

The truth is that this is something that intrigues me, because a skill-based slot machine sounds like one can manage or decide how to make the slot machine work,this is something that causes emotion and it would be good to try, I am a regular slot player who He doesn't bet a lot, just what is necessary and he does whatever it takes to enjoy this game, as I have said in previous threads, I am not interested in Winning money when I play slots, because I know that this is something Difficult and also a lot of money is spent looking for that profit and well, the truth is that you have to be quite insistent with the slots.

A slot game that anyone can immediately play without having to have certain skills, because you only need to play it and hope that there will be a miracle so that you can get a high multiplier or at least a result that can make you happy so you can continue playing with many more spins to come, but skill-based slots are different from traditional slots in that most of them are played, there are skills that must be possessed to be able to get good results, but I've never played them so I don't know exactly how it works, however it looks like gamblers will prefer traditional slots as they are more common.

Yes, luck is the main factor in winning slot games, but besides luck, gamblers need a strategy in managing finances so that while playing and waiting for luck to come, they don't lose more money.
Any strategy has no effect on slot games, but using strategy can give gamblers confidence so that they don't have doubts in every round they play. Using strategy can at least minimize the number of losses.
I know a lot of gamblers who don't believe in strategy in slot games, but if you play randomly it won't bring us luck or victory, friend.

Until now, nobody can prove that he becomes successful in slot games using his strategy.
In this kind of gambling, there is no other way to help us wins in slot games other than luck. And the only thing we have to do now is to know how to control our emotions and keep within our limitations. Because the more we chase winning, tempted with a huge prize, we eventually had messed up and spend more. But sad to say that only the casino wins after all, not us - gamblers.

Slot game is purely based on luck, because it was created on such way to pick the random number. The random number selection was occur only by the number in the list. The most of the gamblers involved in the gambling will accept the gambling with the luck based game. Some gamblers had an habit of creating the strategy for all the gambling games. So they also concentrate on create of the gambling games strategy also. But it’s better for trying luck on Slot games of Cryptocurrencies based one. After earning good money from crypto currency, you can hold that crypto currency for some months and then use the same cryptocurrency to do gambling to multiple the money in the gambling sites.

Indeed, the strategy does not guarantee that someone will win, friend, but at least by having a strategy, one can have confidence and have no doubts when playing.
Without belief, gamblers will hesitate and be afraid to start a round, so even though it doesn't guarantee a win, the strategy can still provide benefits for gamblers while playing, waiting for luck to come.
And the most effective strategy to be able to reduce losing more money as you said where a person must control himself and finances so that when spending money to bet does not experience mistakes that make him lose even more.

to be honest I have never played this type of skill based Slot game but in my opinion young gamblers would be more interested in playing this skill type Slot. because they are young gamblers are always curious about something new and young gamblers are usually more skilled at gambling.
I myself prefer luck or random number based slot games, because I don't have much time to test my skills.

for the type of game that you say has been explained by @serjent05. you can look there to see what you are asking about.

I think what you are referring to is different than the latest ones, the ones you are talking about were not actually skill based since the machine used to spin so fast that it used to be almost impossible to time it and even if you memorize a place to hit the button, it wouldn't give the same result every time, and I say that because I've played that a lot in the past.

The latest ones that are in the discussion are different because they are just like normal slots but when you get a bonus round, you get to play some kind of a game where you will need to score some points and I think you get free spins based on those points or something.
