Beaten by worse opponents

Home Forums Angry Birds 2 Forum Beaten by worse opponents

  • Has anyone at a really high level (all 16s and 17s with cowboy hats) noticed that it seems like opponents with much worse birds (Lvls 1,2,4) seem to get insanely high scores compared to opponents on the same level?

    I noticed this beginning today… With 4 17’d birds and 3 16’d I was routinely getting 9-10 stars per matchup last week. Even Saturday and Sunday. Today’s a different story, nearly lost were it not for the video bird twice, and my scores are more like 6-7 stars.

    Before, I was matched well for streaks 1, 2, and 4, and streaks 3, 5, 6, 7 were all 17’d birds. Now the opponents are lower as you indicated, but seem to be doing ‘better’. A couple feature a spell or so :).

    This begs the question… Were we playing against bots last couple weeks?

    I too noticed last weeks opponents were a bit weak. This week they are tough and the spell spammers are back.

    Oh yes. a rather weak opponent beat me today with over 13 million points.
    He seemed to have an endless amount of birds.

    There are other issues tied in with this as well.
    I’ve noticed for some time now, a certain amount of “handicapping”. If I go up against an opponent with weaker birds, my own don’t perform as well. A level where I hit a certain way with a certain bird, now, suddenly that bird bounces off with no damage. What? Makes no sensexception, very frustrating.
    The second issue has been going on since the last update. Inconsistent scoring. In one example I finished 2.3 MILLION above my opponent and got 8 stars. On another I was only 750,000 or so and got 10 stars. I’ve tried to find a pattern and I’m baffled.
    Finally, level one of the arena, I’ll be up against an opponent my same level, by the third level, I’m competing against opponents 30 or more levels higher than I am. That’s NOT competition, that’s a massacre. This has only been going on recently, started the same time the other problems listed in this forum started.
    All of this is very disheartening and makes me not want to play.
    This is not good for business, as I’m sure I’m not the only one.

    How many stars you win doesn’t depend on how much you win by, it’s how much you score compared to your opponent. For example, you might only beat your opponent by 750,000 but if you scored 1,500,000 and they scored 750,000 then you doubled their score so that’s a ten pointer. You might beat someone by 3 million but if you scored 13 million and they scored 10 million you’d only get around 7 or 8 stars. There’s probably an exact formula to it but I don’t know what it is, once you know how to work it out roughly in your head you’ll know how much to expect as soon as the match finishes.

    Regarding the streak, I’ve been playing for around 5 months and streaks No 3,5,6 and 7 have always put me up against tougher opponents so that hasn’t changed, the arena has definitely gotten more random recently though and a lot harder.
