Angry Birds Classic v6.1.0 Update Adds Mighty League – First Look Video

 

Angry Birds Classic has received an update to v6.1.0 that adds Mighty League. Play in the leagues and climb all the way from Glass League to Master League to show the world how good of a flinger you are. Also, the Mighty League has its own anthem which is an Angry Birds remix of the soundtrack “Sandstorm” by Darude (it’s so epic, in my opinion). The update is out now for Android and iOS.

Good news for iOS users – Angry Birds Classic is now free to download. That’s right, you can now enjoy over 500 levels of pig popping action free of charge.

From Google Play:

Introducing: The Mighty League! The social way to play your favorite levels!
Compete with your friends for high scores in three levels every day, and climb to the top of the Master League!
– Play three challenge levels every day.
– Earn high scores to get stars.
– Collect stars to move up in the leagues.

Not fair ? iOS users always get soft launch games as TNT, Holiday and Blast. This is not fair with Android users. You will got this update this week on iOS probably but Android users won’t play those games this week.

No, it’s not, @sweetp. You are simply one of the lucky ones that got to try the update early. In my case, however, I updated the game by installing the newest .apk of the game that my friend sent me. The update is not yet visible in my Google Play.

Ah, yes @mighty-red-1 I did get lucky. When I read @birdleader‘s post in the Forum , I looked at my list of apps and games in Google Play and saw that I could update the game so I did!

It takes awhile to get used to replaying these old levels again, but it is an entertaining change from just opening a level and flinging away.

…So, in essence, the Daily Challenge located here, only with Classic levels and — as with Friends — leagues.
Smooth move, Rovio. If this were implemented years earlier, I wouldn’t be so quick to call it a blatant ripoff. But now? I’m practically forced to.

It isn’t kind of update I was waiting for. :(
Not in Original, not with Movie designs, finally not without fresh content.
Looks that after adding coin system everywhere, now every game will have a league (with Movie designs).
I’m going to miss it, just like Pig Challenge. Too many leagues to do anyway.

Where’s this long awaited Revolution? Someone still remember about it? Neither AB2, Movie or this update are the 3rd part.

@wrw01 Honestly speaking, if I have to play the old levels, I’ll play the old levels and they lack this gimmicky system which is better.

It’s just another excuse to introduce more IAPs and nothing else; that’s the point.

Im on android I cant get the update on play store

Rank: Gold Flinger with 9605 points
By Mp127 (@mp127)

I played some levels in the league and still don’t like it. Some notes (if someone without the update want to read):
-There’re 7 leagues, classic Glass, Wood, Stone, Bronze, Silver, Gold + Master.
-To complete Glass league you need to collect 3 stars in 5 days, Wood league needs 4 stars in 5 days, Stone 5 stars in 5 days. Don’t know about further leagues.
-Since Wood league there’re relegations. Players from Wood need to complete 1 level to avoid relegation, players from Stone need 2 levels.
-To get a star you need to beat the score on the league’s panel. What’s important, you can beat the score without popping all the pigs, but when you do it within time limit (another great thing…) additional bonus will be added to the score.
-First time you play the tournament, Mighty Eagle (under his more annoying than frightening himself) will give you “Mighty Scope” which is Sling Scope working for 10 mins from its activation. Can be obtained by watching ads (instead of Shockwave).
-The number of players under each league seems to be totally random. There’re showing players in technically unavailable leagues (Bronze to Master as of today).

@MP127,

So if you play, you can’t stop cause of relegation ? Sigh…

Rank: Gold Flinger with 9605 points
By Mp127 (@mp127)

@grimmjow On the first tiers, it requiers “just” opening the app once per 5 days and beating 1-2 levels.

Oh, just one more thing: daily you’re getting 3 tickets, one for each level. More tickets are obtainable from Facebook connection, watching ads and real money. Actually I don’t see any reason why someone would pay for it, no rewards on the lower tiers…

By cams (@cams)

I don’t think I’ve received the free 5 tickets from Facebook. Also there doesn’t seem to be a way to disconnect it?

Maybe the number of players in the impossible leagues are the devs and internal testing?

You should be able to disconnect from Facebook itself. Go to Settings and Apps and you should see AB there. You can delete the linkage from there, too (if that is what you are referring to…).

@burbman It seems to be so. Since I did download the update, I have had a go at it. I made it through silver league without PU’s, but in gold league the scores needed are above the Nest top scores for the respective levels. So there it stops for me.

I wondered about that myself–about Rosa, that is. How could anyone get there so quickly when it had just been released and there’s a timer on it? Not sure I like this one. About the stopwatch…are we supposed to beat the level as quickly as possible? There just wasn’t much instruction on it.

I must just suck… I reached Gold League and I can’t get a star in anything. Burned the rest of me shock bombs, tried earthquakes and powered-up slingshots — didn’t even get close. I have yet to star a Gold League level (much less 6 in 2 days).

Is it hard, or am I just doing something wrong? I’m not buying any power-ups.

Incidentally, the other leagues were all relatively simple, especially if I used power-ups. Then Gold League is a hard stop. Smells like a money grab (once again) to me.

I’ve got the same problem. I cannot make the volcano blow in the gold level. It doesn’t matter how I play it, I can’t get the “star” score in order to progress. I’m not happy. The other levels were easy. I’d like to know who’s using what software to get past gold into master because there doesn’t seem to be a strategy. I’m thinking of just saying adios to the mighty league. The ticket system sucks rotten eggs.

Rank: Champion with 3455 points
By Sutekh137 (@sutekh137)

@welshwitch55

Agreed. Though, if tickets are your only issue, log in every three hours or so and watch two movies — two more tickets. I am not sure it is three hours, but it seems to be something around there. This can get you 8-10 more tickets a day.

But like you say — Gold League is impossible, so tickets are not the issue. I used shocks and power-ups that easily blew away the league before, and then Gold League seems pretty much impossible. Stay classy, Rovio!

@benny123

Yes, I have noticed that Gold league is easier — I actually made it to the Master League for the first time! Had to use many Quakes and the few Shockwaves I had left, but I made it.

Also got a lot of stickers, and should be able to get most of the remaining ones (except winning the Master League — I’ll never do that).

Did you notice the TNT wall? What a blatant cash ripoff… Buying the ability to stay in a League even if you can’t get the stars you need (or just don’t have time to play). Pretty lame…

Whats the Master league like?

Rank: Champion with 3455 points
By Sutekh137 (@sutekh137)

Don’t know, it won’t start until this evening. *smile*

I’ll try to remember to play it (I might forget over the weekend) and report back here. I don’t really care about the Master league because:

a) I am not that good at Angry Birds.
b) I don’t want to waste power-ups.
c) I don’t spend any real cash on the game (like I bet some successful Master-Leaguers do).
d) Stickers I have left to attain involve simply spending tickets and actually failing to get the star. I can do that in any league. *smile*

Like I said, though, I will try to remember to take a look this evening!

@raizir

I lasted about two seconds in the Master League. *smile*

Very hard. I used earthquake and a Shockwave (level 8 or so) and didn’t even get close on any of the three levels to try. So, I got dropped back to Gold.

Then, after I had gotten a few more stickers and was working on the ones involving using 50 tickets and failing a lot (I’m good at that), the game asked for my birthday and asked if I wanted to save progress from my device to the cloud save. Naturally, I said yes. That nuked a bunch of my stickers, but oddly not the Master League sticker (and I was still in Gold League, meaning it hadn’t reset me to a week ago when I had dropped all the way to Silver).

Needless to say, I’m done with the League in the original AB, which pretty much means I am done with the original AB, I assume (I doubt they will do anything other than “enhance” League play to fleece people for more money and ads…).

Have you checked your Sticker Book? I just noticed it and inside are a bunch of free power ups and tickets. Plus, the Gold levels are pretty easy to defeat if you take your time, study the level and work out a winning strategy. I noticed that BirdQuake is VERY effective on a lot of the Gold levels. It doesn’t start the clock and then you can power up a bit and get in under the time limit. Good luck!

I don’t know if this is will help much but i sent a Ticket to Rovio about this problem and heres how they responded:

“Hello there,

and thanks a lot for contacting us!

We would like to inform you that the score shown is the average of all the players scores in that league. We have just made a few changes about League requirements.
In gold league it used to be that you had to be better than 75% of the other players now we’ve changed it to “be in top 50%”.

If there is anything else we could help you with, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

That’s a different game-the new pig game in Angry Birds Seasons. I have yet to get any “fourth” stars. Today I can’t even get it to log my score period in the tournament. Each time I finish the level, I check to see if it’s logged my score aaaand nope. I’m not happy with Rovio right now.

maybe the people that are in the master league are:

2.Hackers.
3.”Rich” people.

By Jamie

Unfortunately unless you stick with it every day you end up either not making it to the next level or reverting to the previous level. And one minor screw up and you don’t get a star so you have the option of watching a video or spending money. Video option is only good once every few hours so if you blow that ticket you either spend money or wait. And the score they want you to get is on the high side. I did one today, took out all pigs with one bird and my score plus time still was not enough. I’m really not impressed with the whole thing, plus where’s the payoff at the end. At least with the pig challenge on seasons you get stuff every week. Not really worth the hassle in my opinion.

How do I stop it, block it, get rid of it? It pops up after every game and I don’t want to use it. Very annoying.

By Jamie

So I stopped playing and just collected tickets every day, and you can collect bonus tickets by watching video about every hour, after about a week I had 40 tickets. I went through all the levels, and yes at gold your going to have to use power up bombs to get through it, without them you will never make the scores. Gold you have to get 6 stars in 2 days. If you make that to get into the master level you have to register with Rovio or sign in through Facebook. In master level you have to get 3 stars every day or your out and go back to gold level. In the end there is no reward for anything you accomplish, you end up watching a bunch of their “get this app” videos and you burn through all your bomb bird. So all of this is for nothing. I’ve just pretty much wasted my bomb birds and my time, thx Rovio, the least you could have done is give some kind of reward.
