Exactly. If the entire game is competitive people then it'll be dead.  There will be no way for it to be profitable and thus the bonus hunters wouldn't play.
Let's stop right there! If bonus hunters don't play, then is it not profitable again? Wink
This may be akin to stating, "it's a terrible move to bluff on the river: you shouldn't shove with nothing," yet if we keep that ideology, then it suddenly becomes a +ev move. If it's always terrible to bluff on the river and nobody does it, then would it not be profitable to do so? Your opponents would never think that you were bluffing!
But in correspondence with bustabit, this will simply result in a sort of oscillation in the number of players.

Yeah, the plan is always been to create two different versions of the game. One for people who like the pvp competitive part, and one for people who don't. But I have no problem changing depending on what people prefer and how they play =)


For the record, I hate the idea of splitting the player base since the great aspect of the game is that the people who grind the bonus% can gain an edge from the people who don't care about the bonus%.  By splitting it up, it seems like the only people playing the bonus game will be the ones who are actually competitive for the bonus which will essentially kill the game.

But I mean, I get it.  By eliminating the bonus aspect, you'll attract a clientele who aims for higher bust numbers, which have higher house edges.  

Exactly. If the entire game is competitive people then it'll be dead.  There will be no way for it to be profitable and thus the bonus hunters wouldn't play.  This new version effectively kills the entire game. 

The good news is that other websites are putting up the same bustabit version and keeping the bonus so there are potentially other places to play.  It's hard to beat Ryan's trustworthiness though. That takes time...

Btw, Is Bustabit releasing their new version? When? Can someone link me to the post? Feeling lazy tonight to search all the pages back. Sorry for the trouble.

No release date, but there's a demo here:

https://dev.bustabit.com

But it's pretty broken right now, upgraded the version of react and half the things broke, and haven't had the time to fix them Cheesy

Thanks for the link.
No extra games are coming into the new version, except the BE THE BANKROLL?

What do you think to add some extra games also, like lottery, jackpot to the table.
I think it will attract more players than before. Though it is just my opinion, you know better than me.

As the new version will offer bonus then it is most probable that all the players will join the new version and most probably the older version will be out of players.
So its unnecessary to keep the older version, or maybe you have more deep reasons to keep the both.

What is new on the next version of bustabit except for busting up my money?  Grin It's been a year since the last time I play this game which resulted to lose half of my asset that time.
Are there any cool features just like a rebate for the loss that you had and bonuses? I might be interested in this game again. I will keep an eye for this update, I hope that you will bring something cool on the site. Goodluck

With all due respect to everything Ryan has accomplished with Bustabit, the new site completely SUCKS.  Removing the bonus competition of the game just turns it into a money raking casino slot machine.  Maybe we can BustaBit fork. :-)

I've been playing on Busta for 2.5 years now and I agree the "new" Busta doesn't sound very appealing to me.  The bonus structure is the best part of the game and is what makes it not only actually profitable but really fun too.  

But, at this point, I think Ryan has earned our trust and respect.  I'll give the new game a try when it comes out and give my honest feedback.  If it's just another dice-based clone with a 1% house edge I doubt I'll give it much action, if any, but nobody can say that it won't be run honestly and ethically.  And I'm sure people will vote with their wallets, if enough people dislike it, I'd imagine the game will go back to how it is.

Once I was a regular player of Bustabit. I really loved Bustabit than other games.
Unfortunately I lost all and never get a chance to play again at there. But I hope I will come back again with big bankroll.

Thanks DarkDays!

And I'd also like to apologize about the real lack of progress made in the last few weeks. I pretty much sold or gave away anything of mine that doesn't fit in a suitcase, and been trying the whole digital nomad thingy. I've had a lot less time than I would like, and that has gone to just keeping everything running smoothly and answering support as fast as I can =)

But I'm going to make a big effort to have more uninterrupted hours, so I can really start pushing ahead again with the actual progress  Grin

Ok, withdrawal fee has been lowered from 1000 to 600 bits -- as the bitcoin backlog is clearing out. We're low balling the fees at the moment, but I don't think it's really going to be an issue if you don't mind missing 1 or 2 blocks.

Due to the wtf mess with bitcoin right now, I've increased withdrawal fees to 1000 bits. This is a temporary measure until the situation normalizes (probably <24h) when fees will be reduced again. I'd recommend people just avoid transacting on bitcoin unless it's urgent as it's going to be quite painful  Grin
wow.. but understandable since there's really big issue transacting with btc and confirmation might take for some time, will be waiting for any updates regarding to this mate, better now to enjoy and play for some bits tried some luck for a while.

I feel like confirmation times have come down significantly generally speaking recently. Last 24 hours obviously are kind of fu****, but a lot of stuff happened this week lol

Ryan.... How exactly is the Crash related to bet size?  It is obvious that it is.  I played 2 accounts and grinded out being up 11 btc.  Cashed out 6 from one account and then played a bit more.  After a run of reds I increased my bet to.3-.8 btc and watched anther 10 early crashes.  The funny part is the 1 bet I lowered to like 22,000 sats went up then another repeat.  I lost 5 btc in 15 plays, no way that was "bad luck". I would say those odds were "slanted" by some outside code or"?"

I don't mind losing but holy shit that was obvious, I think I'll take my 6 btc win and move on to something a little less "shady"

Bustabit is provably fair. There is no way they could have possibly cheated you. It would benefit you to learn the basics of how provable fairness works so you can gain a little peace of mind.
