    ThinkBui replied to the topic RIP Angry Birds Epic in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 8 months, 3 weeks ago

    Not necessarily.  They probably wouldn’t have bothered to fix the Facebook login issue from just a few months ago if they were planning on shutting it down completely.  And taking down a page of an older game isn’t out of the ordinary.  I’m a software developer and I’ve been playing the game since the day it launched.  I’ve been through a lot of…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Facebook friends missing from Epic in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 1 year, 12 months ago

    My cousin’s boyfriend says that his Facebook friends suddenly reappeared a couple of days ago.  I’ll double check with him, but I don’t think he did anything besides just play the game periodically.

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Android can't get into Arena in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 2 years, 1 month ago

    I was wondering what would happen if you got the Challenger Class rewards chest after you’ve earned all the Challenger Classes.  I’ve significantly reduced my Arena play, so I’m nowhere near earning it for this season yet, but I’m on pace to earn it in two weeks and get to look forward to opening up another support ticket if the game really has…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Anybody Else Dealing With Hackers in the Arena? in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 2 years, 6 months ago

    That probably wasn’t a cheater.  The last time I remember seeing one was when Rovio turned off the cheater detection system to fix issues with it.  The only flaw I’ve been able to see in it since then is that it’s overaggressive and occasionally flags an honest player as a cheater.

    Chances are you were just given a really tough opponent.  The wa…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Has Epic Been Removed? in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 2 years, 6 months ago

    I still see it in Google Play in the US, but that might just be because I have it installed.

    For a game that’s had a lot of issues in its relatively short history, it’s surprising that it’s going out quietly.  Did they ever fix the Facebook Friends issue?  If not, I guess I’ll have to tell my family members who are affected by it that it’s l…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Game running out of ideas in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 2 years, 8 months ago

    @nurw, then they must not have turn off the limitation of class upgrades for specific events.  They’ve done that in the past for other events like Winter Wonderland, which was the only place to earn Frost Savage and later Elite Frost Savage before it was opened up to pretty much any class upgrade.  The Ice class upgrades might have been i…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Game running out of ideas in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 2 years, 8 months ago

    Still seems kind of strange since 70 Lucky Coins are worth a lot more than 50 Friendship Essences and 25 Enchantment Shards.  Maybe it’s supposed to be all of them like the first rewards chest in the Arena.

     

    Though Rovio has made a lot of bizarre decisions throughout the life of the game, especially since PvP was shoehorned into it, so it…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic The end of Angry Birds Epic in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 2 years, 9 months ago

    Yeah, I just got more or less the same response today.  I had opened a support ticket because of a bizarre situation where I finished week #4 in the Arena at rank #5 and didn’t claim my reward until week #6 because of family obligations and somehow got demoted twice instead of being promoted once.  The conversation was quite frustrating to say t…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Cave 25 Boss, Alpha Pig in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 3 years ago

    I’m a little late to the party, but I had been putting off this cave until after maxing out mastery on all classes.  Having done that yesterday, I finally sat down to focus on the Alpha Pig while I was babysitting something at work and 3-starred with 90k points flat or whatever it was.

    I saw that too.  Makes me suspect that it’s a JARSU and they meant to hide the battle button instead of the pig machine.

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Update 3.0.0 in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 3 years, 3 months ago

    @budstheawes, that’s another reason to suspect that Rovio may be trying to wrap up Epic.  We’ve known for awhile that they’ve been having problems making the Angry Birds games profitable and Epic is far enough down the list to not even be mentioned in reports while the game’s bugs seem to have been getting bigger and more frequent in the last…[Read more]

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Update 3.0.0 in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 3 years, 3 months ago

    And the first thing that happens after I update is that I get flagged as a cheater in the Arena.  When was the last time that they “patched” the game and not noticeably mess something up?  I’m running out of patience and may soon join the other deserters.

    ThinkBui replied to the topic Version 2.7 is out in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 3 years, 8 months ago

    With this latest JARSU, now we know that they’re already looking ahead on what to do with the rewards chest if and when they run out of ideas for new headgear.  I don’t know if the 10,000 mastery some of us saw is sustainable since it only showed classes that aren’t already at max, but it’s a clear sign that they’re trying to figure out what else…[Read more]

    @metztli013

    About the only thing you can do is open up a support ticket with Rovio.  I ran into a similar problem among others with 2.4.0 and after a lot of teeth-pulling, they monkey-patched the problem by having me create a new Rovio account and then transferred my progress from my old account.

    There doesn’t seem to be a very big support team…[Read more]

    Given the problems they’ve been having recently, I have serious doubts that it was a prank and even if it was, it’s not a great time for it.  It might be a different story if they were actively engaging with their user base before 2.4.0, but it’s leaving those of us who have been seriously affected by problems since 2.0.0 with the impression that…[Read more]

    @werehamsta

    Completely reinstalling is a much slower process.  Just purging the game data (at least in Android) clears up the storage just fine.

    ThinkBui started the topic ABE eating up storage space in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 3 years, 10 months ago

    I’ve noticed that ever since 2.3.0, the game has been slowly using more and more storage for data as I play the game and I often run out of space forcing me to sign out of my account to purge all of the game data.  Doing this has the added annoyance of going through the game tutorial each time before I can sign back into my account.  I’ve had to d…[Read more]

    That’s been a problem for awhile.  When I’ve seen it happen, it’s when one of the retaliation/counterattack features knocks out a bird that hasn’t been played yet during the turn and the game is still waiting for that bird to be played not realizing that it’s impossible.

    I’m not aware of a workaround and I don’t think it’ll be fully fixed…[Read more]

    Do you mean the “Game update required for this profile” message when you signed in?  That’s the same problem a lot of us have had since 2.4.0 was released 2 weeks ago.  We haven’t been able to play the game at all since then no matter how many times we reboot, reinstall, and clear app data/cache.
