- Angry Birds GO Chinese New Year Update – New Monkey Kart First Look Since the Halloween update I lost my multiplayer progress and Christmas updates (second year in a row), I lost my singleplayer progess. I lost everything (all karts, all birds, all 2,135 challenges completed on single and 202,020 eggs on multi player). After 4 weeks (elapsed time) of working with Rovio Support, this update allowed them to restore my account in full. If any of you are still having troubles ... ask for Salla on your ticket to Rovio Support. She fixed me up and finally the back-up from the cloud successfully sync'd with my device (took a half dozen attempts) I'm back to racing again ... now on to get that Monkey Kart for my collection!
- Angry Birds Pop Levels 381 to 405 Thanksgiving Walkthroughs @sal9 @mighty-red-1 ... sorry as I mixed up who posted the update vs who did all the game play ... kudos to you mighty-red-1 on the stellar video :)
- Angry Birds Pop Levels 381 to 405 Thanksgiving Walkthroughs @sal9 -- nice work! ... 1h5m to complete all levels is impressive (I'll give credit to you even if you edited your video for possible fails ... I didn't watch all your video but the levels I did looked like you motored through them!).I managed to 3 star all these levels one day before Bomb came along and Dahlia was making what is likely her final appearance. Her special power seemed far more effective.Game is simple in design and concept but lots of fun! I'm one of five registered users on Google Play's achievements / game center with a collection of all 1,215 stars available to collect (405 levels *3)I could never power through all 25 levels like that in 1 hour though ... Even if I unlock a level by completing it, I mentally can't move on without getting all 3 stars ... level 403 (timed event) was by far the hardest to 3 star in this new series... requires over 460,000 points.My first time commenting on your posts for AB Pop! but I do appreciate seeing your approach on some of the more difficult levels. Cheers!
- Angry Birds Go! Halloween Update Adds New Spooky Kart Re #2 - Rovio support contacted me and restored progress so I could re-acquire the Spooky Kart. I did so. I max'd it out and exit game properly. Return to game and the kart is gone. ticket re-opened as they did not fix the bug
- Angry Birds Go! Halloween Update Adds New Spooky Kart First, all the issues below have been documented with Rovio support Second, I am avid racer of this game and #2 ranked racer and team captain of #1 ranked team in the game. So, I share this to say my post is coming from someone who loves the game and not venting frustration of a poorly upgraded application. You'll find many posts from me on the Angry Birds Go! Forum.If not too late, I suggest AB Nest users turn off their "auto update" and wait till some of these items are fixed by Rovio before updating as this version is full of technical spooks!1. Slow load times on Android at initial load and to load track races. Could be my device but the old update worked fine.2. Spooky kart disappears after you earn it "forever" by completing task3. Gems are not provided for watching videos or advertisement despite the illusion they're given. Game crashes and then gem counts reset4. Single player mode. Game will crash or freeze in middle or end of races. The freeze on my device locks my entire unit from working forcing me to remove power source and re-start device. Again, I have an old Android device (Samsung Galaxy S3) but the old update worked just fine.5. Single or regular Multiplayer (i.e. racing against 3 opponents) seems to work okay but same as #4 above happens from time to time.6. Team multiplayer function (i.e. racing with 2 teammates and versus 3 opponents) has not worked since update came out. You can progress through your team page and attempt to race but then get message "you need to be online to proceed". This message appears even if you have full WIFI or internet connectivity. iOS users have experienced this for sometime since a redesign came out. Now impacting many Android users like yours trulyMy positive comment is the graphics are improved and the Halloween themes on some tracks and the main navigation pages is a nice change. It's unfortunate this update came out without more quality controlSee you all on the track ... eventually :)
- Angry Birds GO Ayrton Senna Update Out Now! @sal9 and forum readersI've uncovered the secret power of the Helmet. With the news that you can choose to race with or without it, I found this out:Use Senna bird WITHOUT helmet and he tires out after 5 cupcakes just like the other birds.Use Senna bird WITH helmet and he never tires out !!!I confirm this works on Android platforms. Any iOS racers notice this too?I don't know if this is a bug that I mentioned a few days ago or this was Rovio's intention for this feature... for now, I'm now labeling it ...the POWER of the HELMETRace hard and race fast my friends!
- Angry Birds GO Ayrton Senna Update Out Now! As of today....the bug on Android that allowed you to race Senna bird even without cupcakes is gone off my device. You have to buy more cupcakes with gems, watch a video or wait for the cupcakes to return (cook? ... mmm cupcakes ... hungry now). It was a great 5 days when I could run as many Senna races as I wanted in both single and multi-player.
- Angry Birds GO Ayrton Senna Update Out Now! Not sure if anyone else as noticed this yet but at least on Android, even if you run out of cupcakes on Aytron Senna, you can continue to race with him on the team multi-player....shhh...don't tell Rovio!
- Angry Birds GO Ayrton Senna Update Out Now! If you're not first ... you're last :) ... Ayrton Senna's arrival only assures you'll all keep seeing me at the top of the ondividual leaderboard with currently 162, 621 golden eggs captaining the world #1 team in the game ... ABGOFORIT with over 800 thousand team eggs and all members of the Nest... way to go fast @phoenix6 @stevep @janmej @dbkraemer @oldschool @jorge-freeman-1 @alcusto @platium @nacho18 !!!
- Angry Birds Go! Update Revamps Sub Zero for Christmas On Jan 7th, exactly 3 weeks from losing all progress, karts, gems and such wih updating to v1.6, Rovio support was able to restore my profile in full from their backups. My wait was due to holiday staffing. They provided me wih 2,500 gems as apology. You find me on the track as ABGOFAST. The team of 10 racers are all from the Nest and you'll find our interactions on the Angry Birds Go! Forum. We were ranked #1 in the world up until cheaters and hacker invaded the leaderboard. Rovio promises to fix the leaderboard issues with next update. Fingers crossed.I share his update to show Rovio cares about paying customers (I sunk some real money to this game) and ultimately fixed my situation as best they could.
