@wrw01 I’m reading almost everything that is written here. I don’t reply on everything though. Sometimes because it has already been addressed elsewhere, or that I simply don’t have a good answer to the question/statement/opinion. I’m a gameplay programmer (not a community rep), so I read and write here every now and then when I got time, and I…[Read more]

@sutekh137 Yes, some testing groups have different timers, so you are lucky. While this might seem unfair, it’s necessary for us to make these kind of tests to evaluate ideas before we ship them out worldwide. In the long run, it helps a lot towards making the game better.
Rovio_Bankler replied to the topic About the Angry Birds 2 Arena in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 5 years, 9 months ago
That is correct. It’s the intended behavior. There can never be two cards of the same kind. So if you have only used spells when you get your extra card, you can only get spells back.

@sutekh137 Good point, there are no golden pigs in the arena, so the theory about getting spells in the arena that way would indeed not work.
Regarding the other issue, we are on it. There are some problems with some recorded runs behaving weird. Sorry for this.

@mvnla2 Regarding the red gifts, they were replaced with the premium chests (they show up in different levels and during other conditions though). The background is related to pacing the player progress, but the details behind this decision is not really my field, so I won’t go into further detail on that.
The blue gift spawn rate should have…[Read more]

That’s correct, I forgot to mention. My bad. You can indeed still get a spell from watching a video. That’s fixed now and will be in for the next update. Please update if you’d see a spell back from the normal destructometer extra card (which is not supposed to happen unless it’s the edge case where you already have all seven birds in your…[Read more]

@garysmcdermott Yes, there is a bug that can sometimes give you additional medals. It’s really unfortunate. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next update (no promises at this point, but I have been pushing for it).
@mvnla2 This happened in the Arena? That is indeed very weird, and means I need to look into it again. Glad you got a Mighty Eagle…[Read more]

@djlarryt Thanks for the screenshot! The pig stopping at the platform is not really a bug, but I agree it looks a little awkward, so we might look into that. Regarding the gift, it should be possible to “skillshot” that chest using Matilda’s egg. Probably one of the most difficult chests in the game though.

The red gifts that were spawning earlier have unfortunately been removed. They have for now been replaced with premium chests that can spawn during some circumstances in some difficult levels that you have not already completed. The level 9 / level 13 gift farming was never an intended feature. I realize this is not the answer you were hoping for.…[Read more]

Sorry to hear you’re having problems. We are getting reports through customer service and we are currently investigating what this could be.

@hooksfan
There is still one rare edge case in which you can get a spell as an extra card. Normally, you can only get cards that you have already used (cards are put in this invisible “discard pile” after use). If you fill the destructometer when there are no bird cards in your discard pile, the game will fallback to giving you a spell card, since…[Read more]Rovio_Bankler replied to the topic New Update: 2.5.0 in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 5 years, 9 months ago
@mouldingo I’m happy you like it. And that’s correct, #13 and #14 are cheaters (they will have exactly 1 star). #15 just haven’t played yet, not a cheater.
@cheese128 We haven’t changed anything in the physics or the pigs’ healthpoints or anything like that.

Yes, as a result of your feedback, we removed the spells being drawn as destructometer cards in the Arena. Glad to hear you enjoy it, and thanks for your input! Have a good weekend!
