When a Free "Daily" Space Eagle just isn't.... Page 3

@PlayDBird - in the long run yes...it's be very easy to do. In fact, @GreenImperial even gave a sample routine that should cover it (according to him - right off hand, I don't see why it wouldn't work either)
-
Rovio looked at this thread. So let's put it to bed.
-
What did rovio say? anything? Will they fix it? Do they care?

Funny thing is, with the most recent release of Angry Birds (Original) that included the Power Ups, you get a free daily power up (and they don't even advertise that fact) and it's daily done right...One per day, no matter when you are playing.
However, for Angry Birds Space which had an update after the ABo with Power Ups, your free "daily" Space Eagle (which they advertise as "daily)" is still done via the 24 hour clock (or at the top of the previous hour of the last time you earned one), so now they know how to do daily right, but still don't implement it in Angry Birds Space... -
@Heathen, I noticed that to and mentioned once at forum. That is not fair. For example few weeks ago I usually logged in at 16 and get my free SE. Once I just forggot it and logged at 23. This Saturday I missed 23.59 and got my eagle at 0.01 Sunday. So allthough I played Space all day I haven't recieve eagle only because I couldn't get it before 23.

Couple of things:
1) I'm disappointed that in the latest update, Rovio didn't change the free "daily" SE to be daily, and not 24 hrs since last SE. They really could / should have. I probably miss at least 2/week, 'cause I don't check the same time every day.
2) Finally thought I had enough free space eagles to start playing. It's taking me an average of 4 / level, although this could improve with practice. So if I want to get feathers on all ABS levels, I'm going to have to pay more than I paid for game including DZ. -
@mvnla2 - It's taking me an average of 4 / level, although this could improve with practice.
It's that practice though that will cost you. UGH.
You would think that after two updates since the first Power Ups update that they would improve the mechansim to mimc that of Angry Birds for the daily stuff. Ridiculous that they haven't by now. -
@mvnla2, actually I didn't expect that 24 hour pattern would be changed, it was never mentioned. I dislike it very much though as I get my free after 11 p.m. and it is very late.
I have only 290 free SE, I was disscouraged to play ABSp after FRTM update as there were not any achievements in that update so I didn't play until Utopia update. Then I was disscouraged to play Utopia when I couldn't get three stars on one particulary hard level. I guess I missed at least 50 free eagles.
It seems that only way to get new achievements and unlock sardine levels is to buy the largest package for 20 dollars.
I collect about 20 feathers in BP and 15 in CC so far. -
OMG...how hard can it be to do something called "daily"? Rovio has now defined the term "daily" four different ways through 3 programs. What an achievement on their part. Also, how hard can it be to re-use a simple sub-routine rather than re-invent the wheel, especially after you got it right on a previous iteration?
Here are the four definitions of "daily" that Rovio has defined thus far:
1) After 25 hours (initial release of Angry Birds Space that included the Space Eagle)
2) Within the same top of the hour the next day after you obtained the currently earned Space Eagle (for instance, Space Eagle number two could be awarded at 8 AM if Space Eagle number 1 from the previous day was earned at 8:11 AM) (Update to Angry Birds Space correcting definition number 1 above)
3) Any time that day after midnight (When Power Ups were added to Angry Birds)
4) After 24 hours 15 minutes (When Power Ups were added to Angry Birds Rio)
Seriously...? How hard is it to use ONE defintion and stick to it? It's a simple sub-routine that you've already developed, and in the case of number 3 above, got it done correctly too. -
@heathen Completely agree with 4. That drives me crazy. At first I thought it would be daily award like pups in ABO, then realized it wouldn't. O.K. then it would be like daily free SE in ABSp just to realize it isn't even that. Then I thought it would be exactly 24 hours daily award, remember that I recived one at 21.07 opened game exactly at 21.07 and there were not my award. I started game some 10-15 minutes later to get it.

Instead of using 4 per level, just use multiple SEs in a single attempt. The downside: not much of a challenge there.
