I’m certainly disappointed with the halloween update, especially since I still can’t play the game.

I wondered the same thing when Rovio changed the map to remove most of the “Coming Soon” spots and decrease the cloud-cover a few months ago. I thought this signaled the end of the app, or at least a dramatic reduction in resources and scaling back of the end-game. In hindsight, the nail in the coffin was probably the poorly thought out professor’s lab and mission portals that were much more lucrative than actually running nodes, which dealt a serious blow to their attempt to monetize the game.

Today they started using ABT to basically tell you to go play AB2. I own AB2 but I don’t play because I’ve been playing ABT since the beginning and all of the issues, particularly the way Rovio has responded, have soured me on the franchise. Really, I should give-up this game and stick with flinging. In theory ABT is a fun, addictive game, but the business development motives were bad from the outset and they have never recovered.
