I still play, Joe, and have fun with it. These days it is more about the clan and the friends I have made. I am with a really good group of people and enjoy the team. But yes, Rovio has really fallen off. Just trying to find ways to work around it.

NAS, I have been here since Bankler was here and actually cared about the game, then Hank took over and sort of gave it passing attention. As I said, no more videos. They can explain it to the advertisers.

GRWA!!!

This is really old and I had to dig for it. Seems Rovio is reverting to their old ways.

The AB2 Bad Luck (and Good Luck) topic

Hey Jo,

I hear it is a bug with the game. Rovio is going to get it fixed because if we don’t spend gems and watch the ads, Rovio is losing money. Bleeding money. Frustrating for now, probably even more frustrating for Rovio.

Thanks for letting me join up with your clan.

Thanks Inigo. That is really, really messed up. Nothing like what happened to our player. Geez though.

Inigo, can you say more about this thing about people coming in and taking over a profile? We had something really strange happen yesterday. Something similar to what you say here, but it wasn’t a leader that was attacked.

Check your age setting.

What is the point of AB2? Sure, I played the original games, AB, Space, Star Wars 1 and 2, etc.. I played AB2 since the beginning and found the arena by accident. Now we have clans and clan battles. This is where the fun is. Trail is irrelevant. We play with our friends as a team.

So being banned is not cool. Especially when honest players are…[Read more]

Scott, when a company or business accepts payment for goods and services, then refuses to deliver and honor that contract, that is cheating. Not only cheating, but theft and fraud. That is Rovio.

It is what it is, Juan. But there is still a way to use the backup and restore that Rovio hasn’t yet figured out. I probably would have shared it with them to get it fixed if they hadn’t done the ban thing. Now it is a free for all as far as I am concerned. I have nothing left to lose.

Yes, Yue. What I am seeing is that as of now if a person is banned Rovio kicks them from the clan. This is what started a month ago.

Will do, Dave. I am still around. I don’t get into all the clan talk here, don’t ever want the name of my clan mentioned at this place. But I still play and have some great friends in the game. Got to remember that it is just a game, but on the other hand there is money involved and Rovio is a thief. On that I will stay vigilant.

It is what it is, Yue. As I said, still have the clan and the clan is the only reason I play now. Rovio killed two of my birds, I killed the third. Starting over. If it were not for the clan I would be done.

But I did report Rovio for taking money and not delivering. It is one thing to ban a player, but it is theft and fraud when they accept…[Read more]

There are actual programs to hack the game files, RIP. Open one up, use it to find the files for gems and pearls and give yourself millions of each. I have read about them but never tried actually using one.

As for the backup and restore exploit that once existed, that took a lot of time and effort. I used it for about a year and my FP was still…[Read more]
