It’s not your imagination, Krena.  I’ve been noticing this an awful lot lately and had wondered if anybody else had.  Glad to see someone else posting about this.

There have always been times in the past where the game gives you a really strange bad break, but in the last couple of months or so it’s been waaaaaaaay out of hand and the rigged feeling is starting to feel like the rule rather than the exception.  Used to be you sometimes had one of the tiny pigs survive a direct hit— now it happens all the time.  Used to be it was rare to see a bird directly land on a pig and the pig not pop (so that the bird is superimposed over the pig).  Now this isn’t an uncommon thing to see.  Bird powers are crazily inconsistent, particularly Bomb and Terrance— sometimes Terance and Bomb now have trouble breaking through things they easily blasted through before like wood or ice, but notably they only seem to have these troubles when the game is leading up to wanting you to dish out gems (particularly the third part of the Daily Challenge).  And you’re right too about trajectories, which used to sometimes be a little off but lately can be waaaaay off.

It takes all the fun out of it when it just feels like the game is so rigged and you don’t have much control and can’t really strategize.  I think AngrySmurf is on the right track to just stop playing when the game goes into rigged mode and not give them any gems or video views.  But if Rovio is going to do this now pretty much every day, the question becomes is it worth it to keep playing the game at all? In the past, I could hold my nose and put up with a little rigging now and then, but if Rovio wants to pre-determine how we’re going to do on challenges all the time now, then that’s a different story.
