Yep and it appears they discarded the old system of leagues. I’ve moved from azure to vanilla and movement is not based on bird level but on performance. Me no likey :(

It is now. The new update has increased scoring capability across all levels.

Ugh, what does this mean for the leaderboards??

Very happy to see the update brought my lives back up to 5 and the wait time back down to 30 min!

I usually do all my angry birding on an iPad, @captrec, but unfortunately this new game isn’t compatible with my old iPad. So I’ve been playing on my iPhone.

I was just going to post this and ask if anyone noticed any other changes.

It seems the arena scoring issues remains unfixed (there’s no way I came in first). My lives are still limited to 3 and take 1 hour to refill.

@dmsral

Has anyone noticed that the bonus amounts on some levels are half the normal values…

Yes! Just noticed that today in fact. On level 1 for sure.

I got another response:

Hi again,

We are sorry to hear that you feel this way and really appreciate your constructive feedback about the issue. We apologize for any inconvenience this game may have caused you and we honestly appreciate your comments. We hope you can still enjoy the game!

Sincerely,

I don’t know, I’m still doing pretty well in level 9. Got 400 feathers and several gifts just yesterday.

No, but if they do, I’ll post it.

Try farming for gifts in Level 9. I’ve gotten a ton of spells there. See the other thread in this forum for how to cull gifts from different levels.

I posted a new thread in which rovio responded to my complaint.

This was my reply:

I would think testing such as this would occur before launching the game. I would also think that one should never scale back a game’s experience.

The entire lives concept really stinks for a game that was based on unlimited replay potential. Frankly I hated having any lives and I’d pay money for unlimited play and NO ADS.…[Read more]
