Same here. The game seems to freeze at least as often, if not more so, since the update.

I was leading my Diamond League arena with double the points of the next closest player, but after this morning’s update, with two days left in the weekly competition, I was suddenly switched to a totally different group, with much higher scores, so I have only a narrow lead over the second-place competitor. What’s up with that?

Yet again, I was on the 7th level in the Arena, needed the “free bird” to win, and the game froze when I tried to click on “improve your score with a free bird”. The only solution is to shut down the device and reboot, leaving me back at the first level and losing the 750 feathers. Very frustrating, and it has happened way too many times (always…[Read more]

I’m done with the Arena. It just isn’t worth it anymore. I was in second place until a few minutes ago, with 1035 points. (the first place player has 1962 points, having accumulated a huge — actually, impossible — total in the first day of the contest). Then, moments ago, a player with a name in Russian script, who was not even in my league,…[Read more]

@jim151, I’ve encountered the same issue in the past day or two. My opponent has no birds left, and after I play my last bird, suddenly his score increases by several million points. This game seems to get buggier with each passing day. And lately it’s been much harder to get past the first game in the Arena. If Rovio’s objective is to get players…[Read more]

@captsternn, thanks much for shedding light on the extent of the potential to exploit the bugs in AB2. I simply had no idea. I wondered, for example, how many of my Diamond League opponents had a full complement of pirate hats, as well as the newer set of 1000-pearl hats, when it would take me forever to accumulate that many pearls, even with my…[Read more]

Has anyone ever played “Raven Angerson” in Diamond League? His record is 46-1-1. He’s in my contest this week, and is getting impossibly high numbers of points in very short time frames. Something doesn’t pass the smell test here…

@ddeck, thanks much for the lucid explanation. I will go for the additional cowboy hat… And I also got into the new Arena and my gems and pearls within seconds of the contest ending.

Can someone explain how the “beachwear” hats (x2) fit in with the crowns, etc.? If a bird has all of the x2 hats, does that mean that the score is multiplied by x6? Should I buy a x3 cowboy hat for one bird instead of adding beachwear hats to 5 birds? Is any of this explained anywhere? Thanks!

I just lost days’ worth of progress on my birds, with the birds suddenly dropping several levels each. I’m 16-1-1 in the Diamond league, and way ahead in first place in this week’s Arena, but after several incidents like this, it’s just not worth the stress and effort. I’m tired of Rovio’s lame excuses for not fixing these bugs. I’m uninstalling…[Read more]

@sambeaver – I have AB2 on 2 separate tablets I use. I’m logged in to FB on both. But for some strange reason, on the secondary tablet, I shows my current score in the Arena, and updates that on a more-or-less real-time basis, but it’s about 2 weeks behind on showing where my bird levels are now on the primary tablet. Any guesses how to fix that?

@david-martin – my experience has been that if I force quit the game (i.e., shut down the device) to replenish the spells I used during the day, I lose the additional feathers I earned in the Arena during the day, including leveling up a bird to a higher level. Has that happened to you? Is there a way to preserve the progress made in adding to the…[Read more]

@cosmo2503 I am logged into my FB account on the tablet and the phone, but I’m on level 535 on the tablet and level 1 on the phone. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled FB and AB2 on the phone several times, but it doesn’t seem to matter. Any ideas welcome! Thanks.

@laxietoo, I have never been able to get my android phone to sync AB2 with my tablet. When I open the game on my phone, it always goes to level one (I’m in the 500’s on my tablet). How did you get your devices to sync?
