The casino jackpots in a nutshell

Wow. After 15 hours of nothing but pressing SPACE you got a jackpot on any casino machine. You probably got atleast 4 Milion…Now what…Playing games is useless since you have a bagilion cash.

Here is the beggining: You go and buy like 2000 catsacks maybe even silver ones… Got absolute useless **** from them, Sold it, and youre left with a half of your money. Whats next… Your condo is full, so you buy a new and better one. Filled it in a few seconds and you’re done. You still have a ton of cash, so what?? At this point you have no choice but quit TU, Ńot completely. You always connect back when there a big update, but theres no more big charm to the game. Finally you decide.“Scew this”… You buy a Smooth Dirt condo and build a house, A pretty small one. Since your balance is low.You start playing Virus Ball race and others. You have a point, your “Gaming Experience” was by the cheapest condo. You can never stop building since you have no limints (basically…) . And so the cycle repeats, In a different way of course.

Well, if you read all that sorry for a time waste on a post made by a younglin that can barely English. Thanks for reading. Have fun.

extra: Welp by now you quit TU fully since the community is ggetting to the “Xbox Live” level.

EDIT: This was kinda a joke and shouldnt be taken too seriously.

I’m sorry, but if you only play Tower to earn Units and having too many of them makes the gameworlds “useless” to you, I don’t think you’re having fun to begin with.

Especially if you force yourself to grind in the casino, lol.

I just feel like to design/build something you truly envision for your condo, you need Casino jackpot farming, which based on my experience requires more than 16 hours to get about a million units. This is a good amount of units for you to start designing the condo of your dream, or a condo that’s worth others to look at.

Your options are Triple Diamonds (which has awful progressive payout) for the jackpot, or Wheel of Money. At this point, the developers like the odds because they believe people are fine with it. I’ve sat on Wheel of Money for about 6 days (around 12 hours per day) straight with no jackpot, and while I was asleep someone took the seat and got the jackpot. I tried again for the next 3 days, only to be greeted with an update that forced me to restart. By the time I got there, someone else was on it.

I’ve seen so many people getting jackpots and quickly disconnecting and quitting the game without any excitement. I’ve done it twice from TD jackpots. By the time you get it, you’re way too exhausted to be excited for anyway.

To design a condo that looks decent, sure play games you might like (personally I think all games in TU feels very clumsy except for the mini-golf, bowling when it’s not lagging and LC), but if you truly want to design a condo people might stay longer and socialize, you HAVE to have a lot of money and only by grinding in Casino will get you that in a reasonable amount of time… relatively speaking.

Seats being stolen and way too low odds that forces hundreds hours of spamming space and other keystrokes for anti-bot measures are not fun elements of a videogame. Sure, that might be how “real-life” Casinos work, but this is a videogame supposed to be casual to have fun.

Developers don’t like people farming at Casino, and want people to socialize, but refuse to rework the jackpot system and the odds. Instead, they secretly lowered the value of Casino farming ([0.3.4.3] 5-credit bets only add 2 credits to the jackpot) and increased the average of payouts which didn’t really change much.

Do you not understand what early access means or?

Tower Unite isn’t all about the units. I won a large jackpot and admittedly did a few of the things you stated (catsacks, full condo) But even though I have this money I still enjoy each and every aspect to Tower Unite. I still go and play bowling, I still play ball race and virus, I still visit condos and keep up to date with updates.
I suppose I still play Tower because i’m excited for the future of the game but generally, the jackpot hasn’t really changed the way I feel about the game nor am I bored of it

I think a large portion of having fun in this game is dependant on you being a part of the community. There’s not much fun to be had walking around and playing games with yourself. Building stuff isn’t fun unless you can share it with friends, so instead of grinding the casino all day, try talking to people more.

I’m pretty sure you could get more than a million units in those 16 hours by playing Ball Race or something with the increased payouts.

Though as much as I wish people would find things to do other than sit in the casino all day, I can agree the chances for something other than 20 or 30 credits on Wheel of Money should be higher.

In fact I think Wheel of Money is the biggest problem with the casino, since all the wheel rewards above 50 credits are so rare that it’s just a nonstop flood of 20 credits or nothings which is pretty lame and unsatisfying.
However people will flock to the WoM machines anyways because the jackpots are so high from the chances being so low. People sit on them and deposit credits but the jackpot stays so it gets higher and higher making the machines more desirable until someone finally gets it at 56300 credits, and then everyone moves onto a machine with an equally large payout.

Perhaps is if the jackpot were more common, the jackpot would also be worth less so people are less compelled to sit in the casino for 20+ hours to get a chance at an unfathomably large amount of units.
