New Slot Announcement The Final Countdown by BTG (or Danger High Voltage II)

Right - here it is and I have to say if you like DHV this should be right up your street. Volatile and fun, with some huge potential. The Countdown spins will pay very big if you get a retrigger, if you get 2 retriggers the remaining spins will have a 256x 4x4 Block Wild stuck on reels 2-5. The Heading For Venus ones have a random Wild like the 15 spins on DHV but this time it can expand and hit a maximum of 888x.

Have fun with this next month!

Graphics are nice, but the base game seems a bit dull... or is it me?

It's all about the features here like DHV is. You can hit some decent wins in the base game, like when you get 2 or 3 6x Wild reels in the older game. I had a couple of 100x or more in the 2k test spins I had. The 4x4 Wild will be rare but it guarantees several hundred x.
 
Lol Dunover i just love it when you say it is a slot with some huge potential. Seem to hear that about every BTG slot. But unlike other companies Blueprints recent slots as a prime example these BTG slots rarely seem to live up to the potential.

Who knows maybe this time we will start seeing loads of 1000x stake and some 5000x+ stake wins. Time will tell:laugh:

Yeah, same with any HV slot. I can only state what the approximate maximum potential win is according to my info. As you say, the frequency of those wins arising will only become apparent over time. It's all about belief. DoA could theoretically pay 30-50k x bet but I think the biggest ever was @brianmon ? with his 10k. The Rapist about 5800x and yet only recently did I see a player post on my YT channel his 40p hit with the max 729-ways of the orange bugger.
 
Good vid. Was beginning to wonder what the fuss, and potential was especially with the Heading for Venus bonus and then the multiplier whizzed up. Ah, ok then, interesting. Looks like a slightly higher variance DHV. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing.

Yes, BTG have cribbed elements from other slots (Twin Spin and a sprinkle of Fat Rabbit) but appear to have produced something different.

Will certainly give this one a go and look forward to the 200 post thread slating it but then, “so I gave it another go and it’s still shit, see you tomorrow.”
 



DHV is by far my favorite slot from BTG so I am surely gonna try V 2.0 :D
Out of all BTG slots I have had the most 500x + stake wins on DHV.

Does not look at DHV at all but I have to say the slot looks stunning.
I can imagine how hard it will be to retrigger the free spins on the countdown though, seen in the video that it went only down as far as 5. Scatters not there a lot. ^^

But this slot I will surely go and play a lot. ;)

I used to quite like that final countdown song its got a bit of a rocky feel to it, very appropriate name for what's likely to happen to your balance as you toil away on it though :)

Also I don't like those strobing search lights, they're moving left to right against the movement of the reels vertically, was making me feel sea sick watching that :puke:
LOL..They do change colour to match the colour of any 6-of-a-kind wins.
 
I'm actually maybe one of the few not impressed.
The multipliers on slots nowadays are getting ridiculous... the higher they get, the less chance you have of seeing them.

BTG and the like are just in a race to see who can have the biggest win on stream... Raging Rhino Megaways is another example of where we will see ridiculous multiplier potential that will never happen - except to streamers that play it to death.

Potential is great in slots... it drives people to play, but we are reaching the realms of the ridiculous in my opinion.

They still only have 96% (ish) to give back, remember.
 
Looks awful to me. Base game looks boring as hell, and the feature isn't much better, 45 spins and 113x stake?

But once again that is perception of what 45 spins should be paying. We’ve been so conditioned to expect something exceptional from anything above 30 spins that this has been skewed beyond all belief.

Genuinely, what do you expect from a feature these days? The amount of streamers that slag off bonuses which pay 30-50x as “poor” shows where this has gone. Trust me I more often than not experience bonuses around 20-30x so when some steamer slates that as being shit I genuinely wonder if I am spectacularly unlucky. I suspect I am not but it is not surprising that expectations have been twisted and will continually be so.

It depends on the slot in my opinion. Look at Steamtower as an example. Very frequent bonuses so you would expect them to be under 40x more often than not. Compare that to slots that take hundreds/thousands of spins to bonus and if a 40x bonus then drops in, you would naturally be rather pee'd off with it, especially if 100x + stake was "invested" to get the feature.

I expect 45 spins to pay more than I expect from 15, so that would be a start. From a basic no retrigger bonus on BTG games I am happy with 100x or there abouts. It depends on the game, I expect more from a bonus that takes 4-500 spins to drop in than I would expect to see in a base game hit. 20-30x in a game that takes hundreds of spins to get a bonus is shit in my view. I rarely get a bonus paying that low on, for example, Book of Ra deluxe, and it gives the bonus much more often than Bonanza for example.
 
It seems the slot developers at BTG have a bit of a penchant for song themes, what with dhv and holy diver too. It is an endless source of inspiration if you think about it. All of the previous music based games from netent have been a bit indifferent and not the most popular, wms did an elvis game like bruce lee I think and that dreadful kiss game, had a slot session from hell on that once :eek2:

As a fan of both Queen of Riches and DHV (IMO BTG's best two releases), I'll certainly give TFC a try.

I just hope that two weeks after its release, TFC doesn't end up being renamed The.....erm.....hmm....no, I can't risk it.

Can I say "effing tw*tdown" instead?

LOL...of course. Just do NOT miss the first 'o' from Countdown or you'll get a @nutnut :laugh:

To get back on track, I actually hit one of the big wilds in the 15 FS in demo the other day for over 1000x:

EDIT: Deleted. just saw it now states on the big time gaming website it is mid march. Exclusive will probably be Leovegas and Royal Panda again?
 
Network release will kick off from the 28th of March...

And never in Canada right? I know and even if you or say videoslots or casino's don't say it all of you have seen a decline or are hurting cause of the sudden make no sense pull out of Canada. Yes, maybe not so much with BTG as you're still raking it in but for sure you have seen a decline.

The Final Countdown is scheduled for release later in the year in Lotto Quebec, Britsh Columbia Lotteries and OLG (although OLG may well be the start of 2020). This time next year, you will have our entire games list in place Canada wide, the path is slow but sure and releases will then become synced with European launches.

Whilst you're here...will casinos still have the option of using the NYX/SG platform, not the Quickfire, for the foreseeable future?
 
Since I suffer from "winning large amounts of fun money" syndrome i hit over 2000x playing this on fun mode yesterday.
And that was just a 256 wild, imagine 888.

Of course I will never hit anything close to it again but one can hope.
 
i played yesterday,first bonus landed in just over 20spins with 460x in total.next bonus gave me 45x and now im 700 spins without feature.
