Hit A Brick Wall
All my birds are (8)'s and they cannot be upgraded any further. So the daily process of getting feathers is a total exercise in futility. I don't know what but there needs to be some room for advancement for Diamond Leaguers and gems need to be handed out as opposed to feathers for birds that are already maxed out. Being all (8)'s and in the Diamond League, I've appeared to hit a brick wall.
Also I think it's an absolute joke the way we are rewarded when we rank up. For instance, I'm rank 56 and I recently just completed 275 stars to rank up. I received a whopping 3 gems. Really? This is pretty much a kick in the nuts for those of us who consistently play this game. I mean 3 gems? I know Rovio has to make $$$$$ but come on folks.
The cheaters are still in full effect. My latest opponent in the arena had birds that were (8)'s and (5) spell cards. But he was a (5) star rank. So he had to have bought his birds cause he didn't earn the upgrades by playing. This would cost a pretty penny which no one would legitimately spend. These types of opponents are a dime a dozen in the arena. I will never spend another nickel on this game until they are 100% entirely removed. Flushing my money down the toilet would be more productive than spending it to compete against cheaters. I know absolutely zero about game development but think there would have to be some way to legitimize this game.
By the way, I thought level 513 was brutal but 520 was heinous. I believe Matilda is a must and with the randomness of cards being dealt, it quite a challenge to have the right cards for this scenario.
