Update 0.1.2.5

Hello again, unit vulTUres!

Changes

  • Anti-macro solution for Casino games

Developer Notes: We know that macroing has been a rampant issue with the Casino since day one. Due to that, we spent a lot of time trying to figure out the best solution that would be both powerful enough to combat macros and pleasant for real players. The system will popup a notification every 15 minutes (while on a slot machine) and present a key that the player must press to continue playing. A successful key press will award players with Units. We’re interested in seeing how it goes for everyone and we hope that it isn’t too much of a hassle.

dis is a ok

That macro check every 15 minutes is okay, but not that great. A lot of people do other things while pressing spacebar on the slots (they get boring to stare at after a while :wink: ). I understand that it’s a start against macro people, but I hope eventually there’s a less annoying way to deter them.

This is a Good Update :ok_hand:

That’s why there’s sounds and it doesn’t instantly kick you off.

Honestly I think everything is too rewarding now, makes getting Units more easy. All money incomes should be nerfed IMO

EDIT: To not sound like an absolute party popper, the rest of the update is great

I think gameworld payouts got buffed, because they want it balance it out with the casino. Also, it encourages people to play them again (Especially Planet Panic). It’s also much less a pain for furniture grinding.

Nerfing casino could possibly kill off some of the playerbase. By increasing the payout for gameworld, its a win-win situation for both.

I think this too, but i was kinda afraid to say it. One of my friends got 5Mil Units in 3 days just by sitting at a slot all day. I think it needs to be nerfed, as much as i like how much units you can get from slot machines in general, it makes playing gamemodes worthless, even with the 0.1.2.5 update. Also i think the wheel of money is kinda bull because i spent 4 days on it and it always landed on 25, 10, or Nothing. I kept coming back to the casino each day and seeing my slot was still not won, and it was worth over 10mil Units (800k Credits). I guess it’s more realistic, but i miss being able to sit on a slot for a few hours then winning it like it used to do in GMod Tower

Btw my Fingers hurt from the clicking.

I agree with your point about the gameworlds payout buff. That one was a pretty good move to motivate people to play the gameworlds again instead of being a couch potato in the casino the whole time.
