    If you play the levels..all you need to do is look at the top center where it shows how many rooms it has.  The real key is playing the game X many times until you memorize the  boss panels by heart (playing the game for years playing DC/KPP will do that to you).

    Example:  If you play Boarneo 1093 you’ll see they use 5 rooms.  If you play Luxembird 1613…it’s the same room boss as Boarneo 1093 (I instantly noticed when I got to the boss room), but uses 6 panels instead of 5.  I guess one extra panel makes the levels “new”.

    The way Luxembird and Ham Marino chapters went, I think the later chapters are just going to be recycled bosses from past levels.  You can tell Rovio is starting to give up on the trail levels and focusing more on clans/MEBC.   Now with 7 panels bosses levels becoming the norm.  I’d imagine they’re going to take that dreaded pinball boss from Got Ham City level 1140 and make a 7-panel version of it.

    @rippiggies

    Those levels are based on the Boarneo Chapter

    – 1606 is a modified version of 1086 (they removed the hole on LR corner)

    – 1613 = boarneo 1093 with an extra panel

    – 1620 – boarneo 1100 with an extra panel or two

     

    The latest Ham Marino 1621-1660 chapter are the same deal.  They recycled all the Litcheswine bosses (1341-1380) and added 1-2 extra panels to them leading the player to believe they’re hot “new” levels when they’re in fact not.   It’s pretty much the classic NES thing where the same level is in different colors

    From my experience

    1) When you join AB2, your data will be compiled and stored in their servers, so they check everything.  No one  knows who reported you but they check factors like gem and black pearls, how much you spend or not spend, your star rank, flock power, arena much real money you put into the game, your score  in the MEBC and Clan (which what axed me)

    2) Yes, because the info is stored in their servers so they’ll know

    3) I’m going to assume for legality reasons.  My guess is that’s why the Hatchling/Egg update made us agree to their terms of service

    Here’s my rant.

    They banned me on Tuesday.  I’ve been banned once by accident.  It was lifted.  No problem  Second time was for real because I was placed 38th in boot camp.  Like seriously? Of course they wouldn’t reinstate my account and wouldn’t release me with specific details as to why I was banned.   Their typical generic response.  They said I can restart over a new… To play 1440+ levels…What if I’m banned again?  Restart another new game?  No thanks. Not going through the trouble anymore.   I find it peculiar that Rovio bites the hands that feeds them.  I entrust a game company with some of my income for the last 2.5 years and can’t be honest with me.  The game is stated “fair” but it’s beyond fair with the arena messed up with 50-100+ FP differences and the players scoring astronomical scores in bootcamp.  Yes, glitches were found because the game crashes all the time.  Rovio is aware of them, but can’t be bothered to fix them so a  permanent ban is the cost effective solution then to hire a programmer to fix the game properly. Lazy. You have already lost loads of players, and now you  lost me as a long-term veteran customer. AB2 is  my last Rovio product I’ll download.

    You can find some of their  boss video walkthroughs on their youtube channel.  https://www.youtube.com/user/AngryBirdsNest,

    Of course you’ll need to scroll down through the uploads to find them.  @mighty-red-1 , if you can please post them on the forum that would be awesome :)

    Arena – 1000% agree with you.   The arena is deplorable these days.  I’m having a hard time getting past through streak 3 and 7 and I bring 3-5 spells.   Well  it might be the case with you, but I’m getting opponents 90 FP BELOW and they’re creaming me BADLY.  Also 5 spell clowns are back, and they seem to be carrying 3-6 more  cards than usual.

     

    Gems – agree with you on that.  The gems in the rare and legendary chest are completely gone.  I see 10 gems in common chests maybe 5% of the time.

     

    Yup the daily challenge  are much harder these days and so did the king pig panic. They keep changing it constantly.  It’s the second time this month I’m trying to map it so I can share on here.  It used to be predictable and KPP’s 3 bosses where from the same chapter and followed chronologically…Now every round on DC and KPP are completely different.  Today KPPs was Porkyo 1300, Hamalyas 586 and GotHam city 1120.

    Daily quests seems to have a clan event these days – where it costs 20 gems to play a game yet the reward is an incredibly pitiful 20 feathers. Tell me the point of that?  ** I agree.  I don’t play the clans for that reason..  it’s not worth spending my gems on that.

    ** The hard levels and boss levels vary, but I’m with you on that one.  I mean like 7 rooms now???

    When you used to pass a hard level or boss level on the maps there was a chest which generally gave anything between 400-600 feathers. I had two chests on the latest update which gave 40, (yes 40 !!) feathers.

    ** As of the new update… Every treasure chest I opened on the hard/boss levels in the latest Litchenswine water chapter were ALL 60 feathers for Red.  That’s it.  I used to be getting 600-800 feathers for a variety of birds. Now nothing.  Rovio is forcing us to play the Clans, because  that’s where it’s at with the constant it advertising.  Just look at how the AB2 forum has gotten with the numerous clan threads.  It’s harder to find info anymore.

    Rovio really don’t want people to play this game anymore.

    ** If this keeps us, this might happen.  To top the icing on the cake.  I had to reconnect to facebook on my Iphone…and in the process I lost over 3000 spells!!

    The arena is  messed up ever since the Halloween update.

    – The matching algorithm has failed.  I am not battling players with the same slingshot.  It ranges from Pristine Silver to Amethyst.

    –  The Flock powers are meaningless  to me when an opponent that is 50 FP BELOW  mine can score nearly 8 million points on his first bird…aka the player Drunkard

    – I’ve faced  opponents like Loopy Silver (pic is zombified Red) who brings spells that are much higher than his/her own bird levels.  Most of his birds are Mythic Bronze, but has Mythic Diamond spells.  How’s that possible, I don’t know.  It does lower to the basic level when I’m actually battling, but still very discouraging to see.

    – 5 spell users are back.  Be wary of Venom_Anton as he scored nearly 50 million points to my 51.

    Coming from a guy that’s been with this game since it even became Angry Birds 2… What I truly miss is the creativity behind the scenes. Back in the day,  that was what Rovio was all about.  The Original AB, AB Seasons, AB Space, AB Stella, AB Star Wars 2 and AB2 (formerly Under Pigstruction) were the bomb, so to speak.  They were proud of their games.

    The levels now have become too monotonous for my liking and a chore.  When I’m playing Hambodia, I forget I’m really playing that chapter instead of Central Pork, Hamazonas and Gravity Grove.  Like I said and I’ll say it again…out of the 40 new levels they always put out, only 6 panels are unique.  That’s it.

    @jon3800

    @ryan-kochie. @shiggy

    Assuming you have Mythic Silver

    It takes 50K to upgrade from Mythic Silver to  Gold,

    It takes 50K to upgrade from Mythic Gold to Azure

    It takes 70K to upgrade from Mythic Azure to Emerald

    It takes 30K to upgrade from Mythic Emerald to Amethyst

    It takes 70K to upgrade from Mythic Amethyst to Diamond

    So you need a total of 220,000 feathers per bird (total 1,540,000) to upgrade fully.

    One of them is a Finnish name, the other is Porka Rica.

    Also this new update likes to crash, which never happened in the previous update.

    They released ALL the tier cards in the Mythic card set.

    Wow.  you’re right.  I just got the 3-4-5 arrangement

    You guys hit the nail on the head with the greed.  I guess I’m paying for it since I stopped playing the clans two months ago.

    Jon S
    @jon3800

    @serkann,

    well it’s a thing.  I compiled the new DC list in a thread, and it’s 100% accurate.  I will be avoiding the challenges on the 26th of every month since the pinball boss is plain awful.

    Jon S
    @jon3800

    @stevey

    Oh, I agree they need to get rid of it or tweak it.  I have that same hatred with the boss rooms from  Gravity Grove level 520,  Porkland level 900,  Pigfoot Mountains level 906 and Hog Warts level 1193.  Terrible level design.

    Get used to that pinball level as you’ll be seeing it more now. The Hambodia/Mythic Silver card update has caused a massive change to the daily challenges (DC).  Before they would strictly take the bosses from the Chirp Valley, Shangham, Greasy Swamp and Greenerville chapters. Not anymore. Now the DC will be the same levels that you will face in the 3rd king pig panic level minus one panel.  I’ve made a thread on this yesterday.

    That pinball game (Got Ham City level 1140) WILL appear on the 26th day of every month, as the last KPP battle with 5 panels.  Now with the changes to DC,  you will be seeing that level twice both as DC and KPP.

    Jon S
    @jon3800

    @gjs96743

    Thanks, I’ve been mapping the KPP levels and the old DC levels for the past 2 months and it took 2 days to figure out the new DC levels.  My, they sure picked the good ones to spend gems on.

    Watch out for the DC levels

    x/9 Ham Franscisco level 406
    x/11 Gravity Grove level 520
    x/20 Porkland level 900
    x/21 Pigfoot Mountains level 906
    x/26 Got Ham City level 1140
    x/28 Hog Warts level 1193

    These are the hardest ones, especially level 1140 because that’s the pinball level.

    Jon S
    @jon3800

    @jordan-burns

    Your welcome.  I just finished the daily challenge this morning, and I saw that the DC boss was Fluttering Heights level 354, so this list will hold well.  Even though the game is random, it has gotten very predictable.

    Jon S
    @jon3800

    @rippiggies

    1)  I can’t really determine the sequence due to the game’s randomness.  In some cases, my bird-backs when I fill the meter can be either be spells or birds that I have caused the most damage with. Let’s say if Terrence does 200,000 pts and Blues get 2 million, I will often get the Blues back.  Sometimes they might appear the very back of the deck and some cases you can fling one bird and you will see them.

    2) On boss levels, if you have a full flock and get a filled destruct-o-meter, they will NOT reward you in anyway. Yes, in a case like that, I would use a weak bird.  The only time they’ll reward you is with Golden pigs and that’s only if you end up retrying the level over again using lives.

    3) The advantages you really get from a higher level/flock power are:  spells and birds can rack up more points since the multiplier is higher so if you’re a masochistic like me, you can score very high in the arena  (my top score is 71 million) and can compete with your friends high score in the trail levels  .  Due to this, you can fill your destructo meter much faster.  It does NOT make arena’s easier as you will always face someone equal or better than you.  I’m maxed out a flock power 560 (birds at level 80) and it’s the ones with the flock power like 40-50 below me that give me the most challenge.

    Just note that hats will only boost up your bird strength and your slingshot.  It was no effect on your spell cards because spell cards reflect the base level card (as if you have no hats and using the regular wooden slingshot).  My spells are at level 45 since Mythic Silver base is 45.

    For good measure here’s the list of King Pig Panic levels

    KPP – King Pig Panic Level Bank

    KPP has a big repertoire of levels which range from very easy to downright difficult.  Here’s the current list of KPP until I have to make another one when they include the new chapters like  Piggymanjaro (Winter level), Porkyo (regular Pig City) and Hambodia (Gravity Bamboo Forest).  Piggymanjaro (cobalt plateau) isn’t on the list yet, but will likely be projected in the next month or two in the slot for x/29, Porkyo for x/30 and Hambodia for x/31.  Like before, x represents the month number and the numbers represents the date of that month.

    x/1 Greasy swamp (150,130,140)
    x/2 Greenerville (160,170,180)
    x/3 Steakholm (210,200,190)
    x/4 Misty Mire (240, 220, 230)
    x/5 Pigsyland (246,254,260)
    x/6 Snotting Hill (294,300,307)
    x/7 Fluttering Heights (340,347,354)
    x/8 Mount Evernest (387,394,400)
    x/9 Ham Franscisco (434,440,406)
    x/10 Pig Bay (460,466,473)
    x/11 Gravity Grove (506,513,520) – 520 is the worst
    x/12 Pig Apple (573,560,566)
    x/13 Hamalayas (600,606,613)
    x/14 Madagooscar (646,653,660)
    x/15 Hamberg (693,700,666)
    x/16 Oinklahoma (740,706,713)
    x/17 Hamazonas (746,753,760)
    x/18 Copacabacon (793,800,806)
    x/19 Snout Slough (840,853,860)
    x/20 Porkland (886,893,900) – 900 is the worst
    x/21 Pigfoot Mountains (933,940,906) – 906 is hard!
    x/22 Central Pork (980,946,953)
    x/23 Hamsterdam (1020,986, 993)
    x/24 Missispiggy Rivers (1033,1040,1046)
    x/25 Boarneo (1080,1086,1093)
    x/26 Got Ham City (1126,1133,1140) – 1140 is luck based

    x/27 Twin Beaks (1173,1180,1146)
    x/28 Hog Warts (1220, 1186, 1193)

    x/29 Shangham (100,110,120)

    x/30 Greasy Swamp (140,150,130)

    x/31 Greenerville (180,160,170)

    As of now my account also got  locked due to player misconduct.  Like Gray, I played the clans game  and I’m not one to ridicule people..  Let me begin by saying how throughly  disappointed  I am with the game.  I’ve been playing hard since it was soft launched in Canada as “Under Pigstruction”.  I put a lot effort (mapped The levels for Daily Challenge and King Pig Panic on this forum) and spent a large amount of my hard earned income on this game to establish a flock power of 525.  Now I am slapped in the face. I’ve sent a support ticket

    Try to replicate this LOL.  I broke the game

    1) Used Red to throw

    2) Bounces back

    3) The game breaks. Foreman disappears into the pit and does NOT end the game
