@juan-luis
What have I said that you see as “defending Rovio”?!? I’m happily treating you respectfully. That includes calling out where you have made absurd statements – e.g. that nobody would cheat if the game were “fairer”.
Do you have any idea how complex it would be to code a game that reflects all your conspiracy theories? Whether you like…[Read more]

RIP Piggies replied to the topic Rovio's banning policy in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 1 month ago
Just because I’m commenting against the “defence” cheaters are putting up for their own actions, doesn’t mean I’m “defending” Rovio. In fact, if you look at many of my comments, they are quite critical of Rovio.

RIP Piggies replied to the topic Are you angry too at these bootcamp champions or not? in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 1 month ago
Certainly looks like there’s people who’ve figured out how to cheat the in-game scoring. That could explain some of the CVC results I’ve seen lately too…

What your kids are seeing, juan-luis, is that the other player watched a free vid bird and then probably bought continues. Sometimes, that’s just what you’re matched up against. It’s super annoying at the time, but hey, part of the game.
You can insist the sky is green and that people wouldn’t cheat if Rovio didn’t “cheat”. Your claim is…[Read more]

@juan-luis
“In an honest game, there are no cheaters”, you claim. I think you’re suggesting people are only cheating because Rovio is crooked. What utter rubbish. You clearly know nothing about (e.g.) poker, bridge, backgammon, mafia wars…
People have cheated because they wanted to get ahead. All this hand-wringing about “but Rovio made me do…[Read more]

I’m “lucky” enough to get to floor 20 odd every 3 months or so, and got to 40+ only twice since it was introduced. Along the way, I’ve probably paid a few more gems than I’ve got back.

I’m not sure what other comments have made you think I work for Rovio. Rest assured I have nothing to do with them, other than being an AB player. My view on this issue is that you can both be wrong – just because Rovio have been (inexplicably!) foolish, doesn’t somehow mean you weren’t cheating.
I agree that Rovio has directly…[Read more]

@DisAb.ed
Are you saying you “weren’t sure” you were cheating? You just “didn’t know”?

RIP Piggies replied to the topic A big "ban" is coming in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 1 month ago
@DisAb.ed – I have no idea about their banning policy. In fact, I find it silly and quite poorly targeted. Obviously, a lot of cheaters have not been banned – and perhaps many of those have committed more “severe” offences than you think you did. I also set out on another thread that I think the “bans” approach is dumb; much better to just strip…[Read more]

@Disab.ed
It’s nice that your legal friend thinks there’s a way to argue – Perry Mason style – that you didn’t “cheat” or breach the terms of use. I don’t buy it. You cheated, and you KNEW you were cheating. Suck it up. You thought you were smarter than those who were playing the game fairly? Warm glow of smug satisfaction as you maxed out by…[Read more]

@Davetv and @Disab.ed
“who are the real cheaters?”
You. You really are. You might try sophistry, but you definitely are. This “backup restore” or whatever is clearly not an intended feature of the game. You have clearly been getting a massive advantage over others by exploiting it. And now that this has been “fixed” you are NOT on the same…[Read more]

RIP Piggies replied to the topic A big "ban" is coming in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 2 months ago
While I appreciate there’s clearly some very high levels of skill for some getting great scores in ME bootcamp, you’re probably also looking – in many cases – at players who are gem-rich enough to just keep trying. I only ever play my free turn, and often that means I’ve decided to use the wrong bird to finish one room, given what shows up in the…[Read more]

So Benny, forgive my skepticism, did you really spend $X0,000 on getting to FP 745? Or did you actually cheat. You know, just a little bit…

RIP Piggies replied to the topic Mighty Eagle's Shop Suggestions in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 2 months ago
Has anyone confirmed whether any ME$ not spent on this month’s shopping trip are maintained until the next one? I’m interested in saving up rather than splurging – e.g. getting a second x11 hat will take more than one “season” of winnings for me!

RIP Piggies replied to the topic Unfair coliseum matchups in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 2 months ago
Suit yourself. If you just want to rant, why not yell into a bucket? If you actually want advice – as many of this forum do – you might want to change your approach. Sure, Rovio gives you harder and harder opponents, particularly if you keep winning. Nobody disputes that, and I would think nobody on this forum would be surprised by that. It…[Read more]

RIP Piggies replied to the topic Unfair coliseum matchups in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 2 months ago
Yue has a point. With that FP – plus spells – you should be getting consistently over 25 million. One of the things you need to be aware of is that spells often give you far less destruction than birds – i.e. fewer points and a lower score. So even if you “strike” with ME you might get a pretty poor score on a particular room.

RIP Piggies replied to the topic Backup glitch Angry Birds 2 in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 2 months ago
Given the horses have well and truly bolted, I think the best approach for Rovio would be to:
– make “new” rewards, powers, hats etc all based on a completely new currency or mode of achievement – one that they have pre-thought the exploits on!
– accelerate giveaways of BPs and hats in chests so that those who have not cheated for years can…[Read more]

RIP Piggies replied to the topic Am I cursed? in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 6 years, 2 months ago
So has anyone checked whether it’s order of joining the clan? So if three people are on 30 points, the one who first joined the clan is ranked highest and so on. That could make sense.

Would this trick also maintain your slingshot progression, if you complete a set while logged out of F….k?
And would it work for opening chests, TOF etc? Almost seems to easy / good to be true!
