Napmaster@napmaster@deindiaan – thanks didn’t realize. I’ve been away from ABF since last summer and came back about 2 weeks ago. Great timing on my part.
@justpast40 – Your points are valid, and make me wonder. From an optimistic point of view, I am hopeful this is just be a hiatus for events in ABF corresponding to the worldwide launch of Battle Bay seven days ago. ABF players are a similar demographics to Battle Bay, so maybe Rovio thinks suspending ABF events will pull more players over. If you’re not spending 12 hours a day fighting Monster Pig Ships, maybe you’ll give Battle Bay a shot.
Napmaster@napmaster@justpast40 Adding to the starter pack info, I hit the 20 Gem Slot yesterday and got my 4 items plus the bonus 4 Ship Energy. The bonus caught me by surprise as no event was going on.
On the flip side, Rovio didn’t offer any Gem Sale during the last event, which is more concerning than the suspension of events.
Napmaster@napmasterYes, this looks like there standard response now.
Unfortunately, your advice makes sense but is counter productive. The advice should be everyone buys a gem pack to give Rovio a reason to reconsider.
Napmaster@napmasterNot currently working on any updates.
Not running events.Seems pretty ominous to me.
Napmaster@napmasterHadn’t played since last July. Just checked in 2 weeks ago and played some. Glad to see the -1 boots is gone.
Napmaster@napmasterWas coins per fight and buying items for coins part of Beta or the official game release?
This MasterOV video shows the coin stuff I’m asking about:
Napmaster@napmaster@vmicho describes it as I see it. Almost all of my gems I get through gameplay. I always hoped Rovio would introduce a new item (Red Gem maybe) that is only available via purchase and gets you access to 5 Star SS items or possibly new Legendary Items. Some way to entice more purchases.
I have purchased gems when I could get them for $0.30 or less. They used to have a kick start package 10 Gems for $0.99 and they had a 15 minute window between software updates a few events ago with 60 Gems + 5 binoculars for $16.99.
I did just purchase the 4th of July Patriotic Bat offer this week. Not sure if that was only available to players in the United States. It gave an SS item for Red (3 star 379 attack, skill +150) and 14 gems for $7.99. The price per gem was higher than I wanted, but the bat in my opinion was better then the Golden Projector I was using.
Napmaster@napmasterThis is just from my observations. I used to be frustrated like you, but time tempered my initial reaction.
Matching is a 2 way street, so you have to think about it from both sides. If you are on a streak, the matching will try to give you an opponent to end your streak. So if you’ve lost a few in a row, you will likely get a weak opponent. If you win a few in a row, you will likely get a very tough opponent. The same is true for your opponent as well. So your matchup with higher ranked opponents may be due to their losing ways.
Napmaster@napmaster@veggie Losing boots on Snow Island, so it’s not just Desert Island.
If Rovio wanted to slow progress down, they should give 0 boots for a loss instead of +1, and cut Boots Chance Battles down to x2 and x3 only. IMO, losing a fight should give you 0 boots and 0 experience, not negative boots and positive experience.
Napmaster@napmasterI knew the free slot would give me items from the island I was on, but didn’t know it would do so based on my current location if I went back to prior islands. So put me in the group that did not know.
Napmaster@napmaster@harharhar
@walkerwind
Thanks for the info.Wish I had those when I started. The Leopard Axe seems comparable to the Chuck Tribal Spear from a few events back. It is a nice offer.
Napmaster@napmasterThey did randomly throw in the Heart Goggle Ship Bow (S) in the event point prizes, so I guess you could say they didn’t totally abandon ship parts with this event.
Napmaster@napmasterI am at a total loss on this. Checked with 2 friends – all of us on IOS devices – all on ABF Version 2.4.5.
I get +1 on every loss. Island 10.
Second gets -3, -2, or -1 on every loss. Island 8.
Third gets +1 on every loss. Island 6.I can’t figure out what is causing the difference.
Napmaster@napmasterGoing opening day which is 20-May here. Should be fun!
And for the record, I agree with @datguygamer and don’t like and can’t get used to the redesign of the birds. Biggest complaint is Chuck – he should be a short triangle, not a tall banana lookin’ thing.
Napmaster@napmasterSubmit a support request:
https://support.rovio.comClick the Submit a request next to the login at the top. Pick Angry Birds Fight and you’ll need info like your game account. Put the details you posted here – when it happened, what you got, what it said you would get. They may compensate you the arena tickets.
Napmaster@napmaster@georgemiket – you didn’t even buy the Jumpstart Package of 10 Gems and 5000 Coins for $0.99US? Which BTW – the JumpStart seems to have been raised to $5.99US which is ridiculous.
My connection drops every so often and I see myself go OFFLINE. It didn’t make sense I would get a win. It was good intentions by Rovio, but too many people started exploiting it. It’s an online game, if I go offline for to long of a duration (intentional or not) during a match I lose. Just like every other online game.
As for you losing arena tickets because of matching issues, that’s different. The game seems to deduct the ticket immediately on clicking Fight!. Hopefully Rovio can change that to deduct the ticket after your matchup is shown or the match has started.
Napmaster@napmasterI just came here to post this. If you both have shield left it’s a draw, even if you have 900 left and they have 1. At a minimum most people have the Popcorn and Sakura Umbrella which are big shield boosts. I think that’s why this is happening, a unintended consequence of the monster pig event items.
Also, I didn’t realize a draw is treated like a loss in term of getting a boost for you next fight. I had lost 4 matches in a row when I got a Draw and was pissed that I was going to only get 7 points and lose my boosts. That’s not how it works though, so it was a small consolation.
I think a draw ends a winning streak, but I’d have to be on a winning streak to ever confirm that. Can someone else confirm?
Napmaster@napmaster@veggie – the crown is for players ranked in the top 5000 by fighting points. Not sure what the breakdown is but there are bronze, silver, gold and maybe another.
Back on topic, I had a moment of weakness and tried the Exclusive Slot for Stella yesterday. I am level 34 with crap items relative to the matchups I get: Pinwheel (S), Popcorn (S), Sakura Umbrella (SS). Almost anything would have helped me, emphasis on “almost”. I now have the Queen Glasses (A) – 4th worst item in the slot. Serves me right.
I would add PIG LAB to your list. There are valuable items in the Gold Chests. Make sure you get those. I haven’t gotten the Stella Macaroon Tower (Lvl 19) which would help me in this Arena.
Napmaster@napmasterYes, it’s always a shock but sometimes the free slot pays off.
I’ve gotten the Sack of Coins twice and sold them for 25,000 coins. I just got the Radio Cassette for Bomb 3 weeks ago and the Feature Staff for Red last week.
Napmaster@napmasterShip Energy refill time is still 30 minutes for me. How long is it for you?
Napmaster@napmasterGot my first piggy yesterday. I got the Paladin Piggy as my SS item in the 20 Gem slot. Fought twice and increased to Level 3. 10 hours later he was still tired, so the 6 hours stated in the FAQ needs more information. Maybe it is based on type (A, S, SS) or level obtained as you stated.
Napmaster@napmasterJust out of curiosity… what was your final point total to get the 441 rank?
Napmaster@napmasterSS, S, and A items can be merged. I do not recall what type the snowman and ski poles are. If they are C or B then they cannot be merged.
Napmaster@napmasterThe Pigs Lab is no longer clearable. It now only goes to Lvl 31 and the “More Floors Comiing Soon…” has been reinstated. That might be related to the bug you mentioned.
Napmaster@napmasterAddding to the list from @mighty-red-1
7) Find them in chests in certain levels of the Pig Lab
