We found an issue that is likely to be the cause of the error American players got on startup. A workaround could be implemented serverside, that should make it possible for these players to start the game again. Please let me know if this worked for you.
Again, I’m very sorry about this. We blame no one else but ourselves. I just hope you all…[Read more]

First of all, I’m very sorry for this. At this point we do not know exactly what went wrong, but have gotten tons of reports and help in the forms of players who have shared their data with us to assist in the bug hunt.
I just want you to know that we have teams working on it, despite the easter holiday. Can’t promise anything yet, but we do our…[Read more]

“Will you award him only one star like you did last time or will he be allowed to win?”
We can’t do that manually at this point. If he gets caught in the cheat filter again though, same thing will happen.Rovio_Bankler replied to the topic Water Level in Arena — always win in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 5 years, 8 months ago

It’d be possible, but not likely, that a bug causes opponents’ score to be low. I don’t think that’s the case though. There are no different score handling in these levels. I think people are just not that used to the water, hence you win.Regarding physics, they are completely new in AB2. AB2 is made in another engine than the older…[Read more]

“Players are participating in tournaments they do not even see or know about?”
You could say that. They don’t get any medals or anything from winning in “your” tournament. The only real tournament from their perspective is the one they see themselves.“Therefore they can earn two or more medals every week?”
No. You’re only rewarded for…[Read more]Rovio_Bankler replied to the topic The recorded opponents are a huge problem. Possible solution? in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 5 years, 8 months ago

When your weekly tournament starts, if we at that point don’t find any matching opponents that are in your league, the system might fallback to giving you someone from another league. Furthermore, the opponent might have been in your league when the matching was done on your end, and when that player later logs in, he or she is bumped to the…[Read more]

“Does the player have the same score in different arena games?”
Yes.“If so, how did Hal increase [from] 811 to 1236 in one hour and 16 minutes?”
That’d mean he played around 43 runs, getting 10 stars each time (which I guess is possible if he’s really good and/or use some spells), during that timeframe. That’s around 1.76 minutes for…[Read more]Rovio_Bankler replied to the topic The recorded opponents are a huge problem. Possible solution? in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 5 years, 8 months ago
@peter-barlow “How about this – when no one has any cards left the battle is over! ”
In the near future, we’ll stop recording your opponent’s extra cards they got from watching a video. People will still be able to use videos for extra cards, but these birds (or the extra score they’d generate) won’t be put into their recorded run, hence not v…[Read more]Rovio_Bankler replied to the topic The recorded opponents are a huge problem.

@wrw01 “Is it possible for the same player to be listed and play in two different arenas?”
Yes. You’re matched up against 14 other players, creating your own list. These people might or might not have you on their list. You might be in any number of other people’s lists.

@wrw01 “please reassure us the folks in the Diamond League are honest players”
I wish I could. But unfortunately, on the contrary, we know that hacking is happening. I bet most of the players you’re playing against are honest, but there are hackers as well. It’s sad, but it would just be silly of us to deny. Obviously we are constantly working on…[Read more]

@sutekh137 Ok, true. Does not change the fact that the card is random. But yes, the exclusion of spell cards as reward for video is not in yet. You are certainly right about that.

@hooksfan “sorry but I call BS on that. Explain to me how I lose to a Level 7 player that brings in nearly all their spell cards.”
I’m not following you. How is my statement that the arena is not rigged, “BS”, because you were matched, and apparently lost, to somebody who uses spells? It has nothing do with rigging. It’s how the game works, and…[Read more]

@partshade I appreciate and encourage the efforts in thinking out ideas that could be improvements for the game. That’s really cool.
However, may I humbly suggest that you change the topic name? The topic may suggest that the opponents you meet in the arena are fake (i.e not real players), which is not true. This is problematic since there have…[Read more]
