Don't You Just Hate It When Page 1

I'll start this off with a few. (My idea is AB play only.)
When you finally make the improbable 1st shot, everything falls like it's supposed to and you absolutely bork the stupid easy second shot.
When you open a new level and check it out to see what needs to be done. You then make a Great Shot that does just what you wanted it to do. And it comes up as a 1-Star.
When you finally reach that piggie in the upper left or lower center or middle right that you've been shooting at for a 1/2 hour - and all he gets is a black eye.
When you work and work and finally get that 3 Star that's 2,000 over the minimum. And you're not even on the 1st page of the leaderboard. -

that's what i hate -
Wen the pigs laugh at me and look at me in a evil way every time I fail a level dats wat I hate
-
hitting all pigs but miss one little pig that's what I hate
-
The worst - thinking I have popped all the pigs and excitedly wait for the points to roll up for a new high score, or even a top score, only to discover a little pig hiding under a pile of debris. THAT really sucks.
-
No, I take it back. The worst is when 600 people have managed to get the 1-birder, but I can't even get a decent 2-bird score.
It is Thanksgiving morning now and I promised myself I wouldn't play AB on this day... That really sucks too :)
-
When you have the perfect shot and you've been working on the level for hours, days even, and right after you launch the bird... the "20% charge left" icon gets in the way of your screen. It sets off your coordination and you tap the bird at THE WRONG TIME! That perfect shot is RUINED! That's what I hate when it happens.
-
When a level ends prematurely: before all the debris has fallen and while still being tallied, while that last bad piggie is rolling towards its doom or that last rock or piece of debris is about to do the same to it.
-
I second @harry, and when you finally get one shot right but fail the other one
-
When you open a level and it only contains White Birds.
-
@Slim -- I had no idea you also hated WBs! LoL
Maybe worse than the black eye problem is when a bird rolls into a pig, and just snuggles up, as if for a friendly chat. -
LOL @slim! same here!
-
@mvnla2: There are a few PotJ levels I've had had that happen to me. How about Big Brother/Chewie not getting the expected bounce or roll?
-
When you play level after level of a new episode, and discover more than half require a nearly impossible 1-bird clear to 3-star it
-
When you accidentally drive your Bad Piggies vehicle into the roof, causing all the ballons to pop and the vehicle to drop to its death. And I also hate the Surf and Turf level the looks like a ferryboat. (I forget the exact level.)
-
Don't you just hate it when...
You finally hit that perfect shot, you are watching the score rack up well above average, possibly even on the way to a top score, and someone calls/texts you?
And yes - borking that second easy shot really niggles me :D -
@CmdrBond -- Who says you have to answer call/ text immediately?
-
@mvnla2 if @CmdrBonds phone is like mine it interrupts your play and if your not really careful you can clear the level! Happens to me too @CmdrBond! Don't you want to wring the persons neck! Just 5 seconds more and you'd have been done!!
When you open a new level up and its only the evil Boomerang birds!! :/ -
When you zoom out just slightly. You sling your first bird perfectly and can still see the slingshot so you grab the next bird pull back, then the screen starts scrolling over screwing up your shot and sending it into the ground.
-
-
I hate when I have to finish level with
wb or GB. They both can be very unpredictable. -
@PJng yessss that's one to bring tears to my eyes!!!! I HATED IT!!! totally surrounded by Boomer Birds!!! Oh you understand my pain!!!! ;/
-
@BPC - Oh yeah!
-
I found myself nodding and cursing along with much of this thread, specially the charge peeve and one-bird-type-only comments. Its irritating as heck when there's stone on a level and you're not given a black bird...
-
Accidentally deleted, unable to recall content.
-
@hinarei - Well I'm of the opinion there should be bomb birds on all levels. But I just like to blow things up!
@Dorito - The other side of the finger slip is when you are watching your perfect shot go sailing across the screen and you have an errant finger get too close and launch your next bird. Usually straight up! -
When you could swear you are lining up a shot exactly as the previous shot, but the bird lands in a completely different spot. So, of course you make an adjustment, and then that lands where the previous shot landed, and so on and so on...
-
When you get that perfect shot and you stuff up the next shot that is one of the things I hate and I agree with @AMslimfordy to unleash white birds true power you have to get super close to the structure.
-
When the white bird hits a building before you can tap it.
:/ -
When Terrance hits that perfect spot of a wall where he just bounces off causing no little to no damage.
-
when you play for half an hour on a level and finally get a better then average score, hand the phone to the girlfriend, and on her second try -- see beats your score.... white bird is my favorite bird tho.... only bird that can pick up the 7 - 10 split.... or you know 2 pigs that are miles apart
-
Frustrating, yes. But keep the girlfriend...
-
Don't you just hate it when...
You beat your high score but accidentally hit the reset button because it's such a habit?
You are watching an AB YouTube video for ideas and the reset button just doesn't seem to work (might be just me lol)?
You're trying for a backwards Boomerang Bird shot and it just hits the next bird hopping into the slingshot?
-
I've done that reflexive reset a few times. :(
Any backwards boomerang shot requiring a low angle on the spin back is subject to that design flaw. -
@78rpm I absolutely hate it when you are trying to scroll back to the slingshot and you accidentally launch a bird.
@bluestar definitely hate the "rapid restart reflex" and the backward green bird hitting the next bird.
@slim the levels full of white birds are my WORST NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!
@brave definitely one of the worst parts when all the debris doesn't fall, or that last pig is about to die and it says level failed, or when all the pigs an debris are finished and it takes a million years for the thing to register that the level is beaten. That's why I like the button you can press to move on in ABO.
Or a good first shot in space.....and then the next bird misses the gravity field.
-
When you've been hoarding falcons, earned star by difficult star, and your 4-year old grandson gets hold of your iPad....and you know the rest! "Look ar the spaceship grandma". 75 times.....
-
I REALLY hate that the pig in bad piggies doesn't roll very far (actually it's that he slows down really fast)
-
Haha good one @lesleysui!
-
I hate that you can't make the engine-powered wheels face a different direction where you can go backwards too.
-
What I really hate is when your bird in AB Rio is still mowing and then it poofs.
-
I hate it when I go to the walkthrough and see the word 'lob'. I just CAN'T 'lob'. To me the word is an acronym for 'lift off blindly'. See mighty hoax 5-17 which has SEVEN of those yellow critters to 'lob'. :)
-
Follow up to the above comment. Immediately after posting I went back to MH 5-17 and lobbed my way to 3 stars. Thank you AB Gods!
-
It's like magic, isn't it? You post a complaint and then you beat the level. But believe me, it only works for complaints.
-
ABo has a button? Which platform?
-
I agree with @AMslimfordy - a level with all white birds is truly gut wrenching.
-
okay my girlfriend (user name = angry angel) wants to comment but is too lazy to log on..... so i'm stenographing..... and i quote....
"I like the orange bird because there is something so satisfiying about going into a small space and blowing it up with yourself -- and not even getting hurt, you just break the confines of that space, you break the barriers with your own self... and then just exhale.... and fly away!"
sigh, lol :) -
@crash I can agree with your girlfriend. Orange bird is great and I like the fact it woldn't die just fly away. It is famale style, Pink don't get hurt too.
-
@crash you seriously need to keep your girlfriend! Not only is she funny but she kicks butt for you!! ;D
