Yea, seems to have been fixed for me as well.
It does make me wonder in the same way the ‘spell power = 1’ thing… If Rovio’s quality assurance is this ineffective, perhaps I should send them a resume. I could even get front row seats to a Floor Jensen / Nightwish concert or two as a bonus.

Sad to say that is part of the game…
cognitive replied to the topic Rovio really are having a laugh in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years ago
we are seeing right now may be the result of seeds planted a year ago when cheating was easier. When the 25000 BP hats came out nobody blinked and people seemed to have infinite supply of them thru back channels. Now all these people are still in the game and creaming the rest of the players, those who went the traditional route.
Depending on how…[Read more]

How can you get any info on a clan opponent or the opponent clan itself?
cognitive replied to the topic Unfair matchups in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years ago
OK… Serious question to Rovio and friends. Like, serious question. Play along here:
- A match involves two players.
- Nearly EVERY match reported here for experienced players at least involves opponents with 10%-20% HIGHER flock strength.
- If the process of selecting opponents is fair, shouldn’t we be seeing WEAKER opponents once in a while?…

Ah, you just identified another not-talked-about issue here. Points throttling especially towards the end of the game, where the objective is to trickle points to you just below your opponent to get you to spend gems…

My stupidity was that after sitting on 600 ducks etc and 250-300 sardine cans 😂 I wasted them trying to stay in diamond league. Holy 🐮. There were times you had to play 10 matches a day to not be demoted.
So too late I realized that and I’m now in vanilla league and happy. Can’t win a tournament without blowing serious numbers of spells (I figure…[Read more]

The general way the arena works is:
1. opponent with super high FP that actually knows how to play. requires lots of spells to win if their FP is way more than yours
2. same as 1 except opponent is completely clueless – scores maybe 5-10M. Easy win but of course you wasted a bunch of spells to find out
3. opponent same as your level and still…[Read more]

When you’re at flock strength 370 and without spells lose 10 or 15 in a row at streak 1, I’m having a hard time buying Rovio’s argument.
Generally speaking 20 FS more is not a problem but 30-50 FS more plus extra spells plus miracle points brigade 5-10M last birds, well those are problems.

Let’s see if Rovio’s going to notice this time.
Also, has the non arena / DC play gotten easier? Clan vs clan play is absurdly simple – and, sad to say, fair ?? – regular levels are trivial (around 700 to 800), arena is as described above in terms of opponents, and DC is interesting to say the least, with 3+ structures and plenty of immortal…[Read more]
cognitive replied to the topic What's the highest score in your clan vs clan game now in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years, 1 month ago
We’re 3 for 3 with my birth country’s national team 🏆. Our leader has flock strength of low 400s and routinely puts up 40 to 45 m points.
I do feel that in contrast to other clan or arena events, battle of the clans seems way too generous with points and luck in general. Anyone else feels the same way?
cognitive replied to the topic Warning: If you're thinking about buying a legendary chest… in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years, 1 month ago
Today was a good day. My clan won its battle so I get the legendary chest. 1000 BP’s. Then nearly 500 BP’s from the clan winnings. Then, a FEATS notification that I had opened these many Legendary chests, here is one more. Another 500 BP’s. Nearly 2000 BP’s in one day.
In 100 years maybe we’ll see this again :)
cognitive replied to the topic About the Angry Birds 2 Arena in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years, 1 month ago
it makes no difference – I’m in Vanilla league and still the gem drain continues. I prefer to spend my saved-up gems for clan matches as the payoff is far better (we have a decent clan). At the same time, use a couple spells here and there and hope for the best, maybe complete 2 Arena tournaments a week. Eventually I’ll run out of gems or spells…[Read more]

Nothing more silly than the defeat boss pig feat. I have played level 5 (2 rooms, 2 birds total to defeat boss pig) a few dozen times to push the new feat :)
cognitive replied to the topic Report & Mute Buttons in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years, 1 month ago
What kills me is that it would be trivial for Rovio to ferret out cheaters. If they record everything – not too difficult, we’re not talking terabytes – it should be easy to run a user progression report. If all of a sudden Birdie Bob goes from 1800 black pearls to 180000, that should be a red flag worthy of the Komsomol. Likewise, if someone hits…[Read more]

Which brings back the main item that ruined AB2 in my opinion, tickets. When you only have 8 + 8 chances a day the good players do shine. But when you have mediocre 24/7 players there simply is no match.
cognitive replied to the topic Battle Time! in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years, 1 month ago
Not sure – I scored 24M and thought I did everything perfect to get there – level 51-52 birds and all – and another guy in our clan, pretty good player, did 40M. His birds are stronger, obviously, but this is pretty much predicated on flock strength, aka hats, not necessarily skill.
cognitive replied to the topic Unfair matchups in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years, 1 month ago
Depending on what the room looks like, 5M per room at my level (370) is not too difficult. However, I also see those 10M room people, and I don’t think FS difference is all of it, because we’re even matched all the way till the last bird or two.
I’ve even coined the term ‘Mystery Points Brigade’ for such players. The mystery or manipulation is…[Read more]
cognitive replied to the topic Unfair matchups in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 4 years, 1 month ago
Been like that for a few weeks for me. 6 or 7 is not unusual to face someone at +40 to +50 with 2-3 spells.
Defeatable with my own spells, which is exactly the objective of Rovio.
