Land base slot vs Online slot RTP

[Coin_trader]

Land Base Slot

This type of slot is perfect if you are searching for a real entertainment since most of physical slot offer a flashy and addictive games.

IRL casino typically has a lot of fixed expenses compared to online casino. They need to hire staff, security, electricity for all the machine, flashy lights air conditioning, etc and taxes. This is the reason why the casino usually charge this extra cost on slots RTP since it’s the most popular game in the casino. RTP can go as low as 75% while the average RTP is +-90% which is far lesser than the online slot games.

Based on other user experience, Other casino put a 99% RTP sign on one of the machine to mislead players that all slots have same RTP while in reality its only that single slot have high RTP in the row and the rest has low RTP.

Online Slot

This is perfect for gamble that doesn’t have enough time to go out and play in physical casino due to work and other things. You can experience the vibes of playing slot while using a hand held device. Although physical slot is still the best for gambling experience but still this is good if you are a busy person since the huge win is the main source of entertainment here.

Online casino has lesser operating cost since they don’t have the physical casino. This is why most of the online slots offer high RTP with up to 98% RTP. Online slot can offer high multiplier because they have lesser operational cost and this is their main feature to attract more players since they lack the physical experience. Gambler will not be interested on playing a slot game online if it only promises small grand prize like IRL casino offering.


Conclusion: Land based slot is only good to play if you only want to become entertained since their RTP and max payout is ridiculous. Online slot on the other hand offers high return since they have lesser operating cost and high payout is there main attraction. People should stop hitting the land based casino if there main purpose is hitting a jackpot because it’s really not worth it. Land base slot has a low jackpot prize and you need to bet high amount in able to have a chance to get it while online slot can give you the chance to hit that kind of jackpot with lower bet amount.

This is a great thread  I must say but I really don't think there is any need trying to compare this both since they both have their specific roles and targets just as you already spelt out.
I specifically gamble more on online slot due  to my schedules but I also do visit the land based ones at every slightest opportunity  that I grab especially  with friends and most times I find it more entertaining  to visit  the land based casino especially  when I want to make new friends and enjoy some good chilled soda.
But I think for security  purposes I choose to do most of my gambling  online and that's why I never the visit the land based casinos  alone.

Agre, the RTP are f*ck us on Landbase.

I believe around 60-70%, Imagine on there people are easily spent 10-100$/spin and guess what "Jackpot" triggered by only 3,000$ ~LOL I always funny to see landbase slot, the attendance need to give him the money only 3,000$ with 50-100$/spin.

Slot in Landbase should be avoided ~XD

It depends on what you want. For me the main purpose of gambling is to get emotions. And the most interesting gambling is in the offline casino. If you haven`t purpose to get the bank - it is the best way to get positive emotions. But if you want to win or just not to lose longer - online casino is the best decision.

[Beparanf]

Agree on this. I follow an influencer on facebook that going live whenever he is playing land based slot. His bankroll is 1000$ and betting 25$ to 50$ per spin. Sometimes he do 100$ per spin and guess what, A win above 1000$ will need the casino staff to manually give the cash prize.

Imaging playing on this kind of casino that has a low jackpot prize while you are risking huge some of money per bet just to get a decent win.

Land base slot = ❌
Online slot = ✅ 💯

It's nothing new if most gamblers playing in land based casino is for fun, while most gamblers playing in online casino is for making money.

Although in online casino is better than land based casino regarding it's odds or RTP, but the house is still has higher chance to win. Due to private, active 24/7 and easier to access, many gamblers are more addicted in online casino rather than land based casino.

I wonder if there are ways for players to verify the fairness of the land-base slots. I'd be discouraged from playing them if there's none. On the other hand, I find these slots to be more entertaining than online slots. These slots have more physical engagement and great atmosphere of the environment, thus playing just hits differently.

Such lowness of land-base slots' RTPs does make sense, as what you said, given the high operating costs. Gladly, there is good news for operators who are looking to cut operational costs – a new trend that's worth exploring, migration to online casino business. While online casinos offer convenience and accessibility, many players still longs the unique atmosphere of traditional casinos. Online casinos are convenient, but some people still prefer traditional casinos. Both should continue to exist for different kinds of players to have their preferred option.

+20 years ago we had just a few similar "fruit" slots and video poker, at least in my city, and not-so-fancy casinos I use to hang out. With time the choice of available slots was bigger, but except for trying some slots here and there, I didn't play them much. Only with crypto, I discovered online gambling and some awesome providers, and even more awesome slots with crazy bonus rounds. Since that time I didn't step a foot in land-based casino and who knows if I ever will... I simply enjoy online gambling, no hassle with going out, at home I have some peace and quiet, and drinks are cheaper!

I knew that land-based slots have lower RTP, but I never saw the actual numbers... thanks for sharing, another good reason why playing slots is better online.

On land based casinos the RTP can be changed manually as I have seen this first hand when some guy used to come at night and changing the RTP of the machinery back in the distant year of 2002,it was some sort of fruit machine that people were easily addicted to it because of the beautiful fruits there and because there was not much else then.

Now that we have online casinos we have lower RTP,at least that is what being advertised by the slot publisher and we have to believe them as we have no way of verifying their truth but compared to land based ones we have huge selection in online slots and of course the RTP is much better here.

[goldkingcoiner]

Not only do the land based slots cost a lot of money to maintain but those costs are obviously going to affect the RTP. Casinos are not going to accept paying for the costs out of their own profits.

Obviously the casino is going to use misleading marketing tactics to make both kinds of slots to seem amazingly profitable but that is to be expected. So, I would rather expect the unexpected: When comparing the land based slots and the online one's RTP, I am certain that both are regulated and controlled heavily to ensure fairness but the offline, physical ones are easier to manipulate, I think. You can call me paranoid but I would rather trust slots which are coded and the code can be checked at any time to ensure the fairness and security.

You cannot take apart the physical ones to make sure there is no tampering to the RTP, just for a check-up.

Slots would be slots no matter what setting or platform you place it. Comparison on which platform would be more addictive is no need to debate. The only thing which would seprate player is convenience in terms of general accessibility of the platform. If you don't have the energy to go to land based casinos for sure you'd be eyeing to online platforms not to mention bigger bonuses with online gambling. While playing on land based casino would give you more entertainment. Both are addictive if I would be asked. Both platforms would as well generate profit if you are lucky at that moment you are playing. RTP on the other hand is a variable players has no control with. RTP would vary not on the game or platform but to the gambling provider.

Do not make it sound like online casinos are easy to set up. They are not easy too. There are still many expenses that online casinos pay for too. They still use electricity for their servers, and also for the games they are offering. They also pay workers too. But just that online casinos see more traffic than land based casinos.

It is true that online casinos are for those that are unable to visit land base casino, maybe because of work or other reasons. But in today's world, land based casinos are shrinking while online casinos are increasing. Many people are becoming to prefer staying where they are to just gamble instead of visiting land based casinos. Although I understand what you are saying, it is fun to bet on land based casinos than online casinos.

The younger generation are usually attracted to online casinos because they are conversant with the internet. Online casinos are also great because it is mobile, hence you can gamble anywhere. Online casino services are also twenty-four hours making them very attractive. Setting up a standard online casino is not cheap because the best technological tools are expensive.

Land casinos are mainly patronized by the older generation because most of them are used to the casino and some have refused to embrace change. Land casinos offer physical assistance to the older generation so they like playing offline, unlike online casinos, which have online customer care service that is manned by untrained personnel or even bots. Land casinos could also serve as an avenue for socialization. One can meet friends and acquaintances in land casinos and have a good time with them. if you want to hear the best sports or gambling analysts and forecasters go to a land casino.

In Finland we have pretty low cap in jackpots on those. I think that biggest jackpot in land base slots i've seen is €500. Goverment has the monopoly on those and winnings are used for funding several non-profit organizations etc. Also all gambling in here includes kyc these days, so i think many of you would find that odd.

But i would most likely get hooked if i saw insanely big jackpots on slots machines. I saw couple of those while travelling, but obviously didn't win anything from them.

[CryptSafe]

OP, each of the casino options are unique in their own ways as I would not say anything against them. The both are fun and pleasurable to those who understands. I personally am very much comfortable with online casino because if the comfort I get and my identity unknown to anybody. I cherish my privacy so I do not think it is necessary for me to go live land  casino for gambling exercise when I have everything at my comfort zone which saves me the stress of jumping about from on sport to another.

From your conclusion, you said online casino does not cost a lot. Where did you hear that from? Who told you that? Do you know that most of those online casino spend heavily just to get their casino a good promotinal campaign ? How long have you heard or seen land casino doing promotinal campaign of that nature? Do your research properly on financial cost involved in establishment of both casinos then you would know what it takes.

[Cling18]

Since most of us are busy with our everyday lives these days, we choose comfort and convenience, which is why the majority of us now prefer online slots to traditional or physical slots. It saves time because we don't have to drive too far to get to the casino. We can quickly and easily navigate to the casino website of our choice and make a wagering selection. I don't believe that the proportion of land-based slot players is bigger than that of online slot players, but there are still those who prefer to play and enjoy physical casinos because of the experience and they may do so out of comfort. Since there have already been a lot of crimes linked to actual gambling, I believe it is safer to gamble online from the comfort of our homes.

Conclusion: Land based slot is only good to play if you only want to become entertained since their RTP and max payout is ridiculous.

Gambling in general is entertaining and it depends on the preference to the choice of game we preferred that makes us have fun while playing them, both the land and online slot games have their advantage and disadvantages, the online slot cwn also gives a surprising payout unexpectedly

Online slot on the other hand offers high return since they have lesser operating cost and high payout is there main attraction.

To me i would rather believe that the online slots have more higher operational cost than the land base slot operators, cyber maintenance could be more expensive than we thought because if the security measures is well taken care of, it may lead to an attack on their website.

That is just true, but it goes beyond advertisements, there are other things casinos are spending money on, but if the casino have many customers, it will not be a problem, because they will earn from gamblers which will be used to pay their workers and also pay for electricity too to run their services. If anyone says online casinos are not spending like those land casinos, it is because the person do not know how hard and how much to spend before becoming a reputable online casino, including the cost on the continuing functionality of the casino. There is also server that online casinos needs to keep running which is costly.

Also, not every land based casinos have transparent slot-machines. It's just not possible to know accurately their RTP percentage. You have to trust the house and hope they are being fair to you. The only pros I can see on such machines is the excitement it guarantees to the gambler through shining colors, lights, eccentric design and catchy sounds. That is indeed an unique experience you aren't going to have when playing at online casinos.

I know a few guys who used to be addicted to these machines. I don't know what it was, maybe the sound of coins being thrown out by the machine, or the fact that you could buy beer at these joints so they were all sitting there drinking, smoking and pushing buttons for hours. They looked like zombies afterwards and usually had weeks of losing streaks and then 1 win that would make them come back on their feet and there was another week of losing. They never made it out with any significant win, like 2-3x of what they lost. The machines always kept them on edge, so not very deep in debt, but just a little to make them keep playing and drinking there.

The RTP is probably why these slot joints are slowly disappearing. Nowadays you can only find drunk and/or poor guys playing there. The rest plays online.
