  • Not sure if this was part of the 2.4.2 update, but they have finally addressed the OFFLINE issue. I just got a network glitch and disconnected, and instead of seeing my opponent with my shield – 10% I saw it as 1100 and I got destroyed. I matched up again and turned off my WIFI to go OFFLINE and same result, 1100 shield for my opponent and I got a loss.

    I believe this occurred with this update because with the BOMB CUP it felt like every time I beat an opponent to an early sabotage they would go OFFLINE and get their tainted 10 points. I saw several OFFLINE at the beginning of the CHUCK CUP but haven’t seen any today. It’s about time.

    Kudos to Rovio on this!!

    @napmaster Sorry I don’t get it, so you are saying that before the new update, people could get 1000 shield if they went offline?

    @tomt He’s saying that you used to be able to go offline after you find an opponent to make it a very easy fight. Since you’re not connected to the internet, your opponent is not collecting panels. Therefore, they’re not gaining stats.

    Well lately, Rovio made it so when you do this, your fake opponent ends up with about 600+ defense and a decently high attack power. That’s nothing for players like us. Now, after this update they have, as he said, 1100+ defense and attack power.

    @partshade Good concept, but, what if players who actually and legitimately accidentally lose internet connection?

    Don’t go with AT&T?

    @tomt I guess they’re screwed then. :P

    And I have AT&T. :D

    That´s the problem TomT. Due to still ongoing “technical issues”, how ROVIO calls it, I didn´t even lost some fights, I did also loose some arena-tickets without beeing paired to an opponent.
    I play this game for 11 month now. I´ve played about 22000 normal fights plus all arena and monster fights during the corrspondingly events. I did never switch off my WiFi or got offline in any other way and now I´m treated like a fu**ing cheater.
    I´m just happy I did never spent a single cent for the game.

    @georgemiket – you didn’t even buy the Jumpstart Package of 10 Gems and 5000 Coins for $0.99US? Which BTW – the JumpStart seems to have been raised to $5.99US which is ridiculous.

    My connection drops every so often and I see myself go OFFLINE. It didn’t make sense I would get a win. It was good intentions by Rovio, but too many people started exploiting it. It’s an online game, if I go offline for to long of a duration (intentional or not) during a match I lose. Just like every other online game.

    As for you losing arena tickets because of matching issues, that’s different. The game seems to deduct the ticket immediately on clicking Fight!. Hopefully Rovio can change that to deduct the ticket after your matchup is shown or the match has started.

    I don´t need to buy any Jumpstart Package because I currently have:
    329 Gems
    5412542 Coins
    200 Arena Tickets

    Btw, it seems that the technical issues are fixed, so let´s hope for some more fun playing the game.

    I don’t think the technical issues are fixed as I went offline in the last 5 arena fights. Then both my bird and the opponents bird had to fight without any defense. And even though I won these fights, I got only 10 point per fight.

    It currently suxx. Nothing unusual I get a short disconnection (playing in train) 2 seconds before fight ends and *POOF* the match becomes an armor-less crapshot. So disappointing. Just a short disconnection and if you lose (that’s easily done), you lose all your streaks.
    Playing it at home on wifi isn’t a good solution as it’s no more “mobile”.

    TomT
    @tomt

    @vmicho When I play arena, I ALWAYS turn off my wifi, and I use my mobile data to play. Because sometimes when using wifi connection, you get interference, or sometimes your phone tries to connect to another wifi.

    So, always use your mobile data.

    Hmm, I’ve already posted a complaint to rovio.
    It is not normal that you get penalized so much for a slight disconnection …

    It’s a little unfair, I play on a wifi-only tablet but my internet is so bad that I go offline often only because of my provider, not intentionally. Sadly, there’s no wsy to say if you’re cheater or a legitimate player so I’ll have to live with it.
