What the hell guys? I posted this video months ago and it’s still gaining traction?
Seriously, thanks for all of the support. You guys are awesome ❤.
Algorithm is blessing you today
the algorithm summons us
W ranting and W video
I love angry birds go, except for when I don’t
Hit him for 30, shield is down. Cranking 90s, one pumped him. Algorithm is down…
Remember guys, rovio tradition is "if it's not ruined, ruin it more"
True in everyway possible
if it aint broke, break it
I really don't get why they didn't have ice bird as an unlockable character for subzero. Not only would've it been a great nod to AB Space, but it would just literally be perfect and really cool y'know
Funny thing is, he's an unused character (go to the angry birds go cutting room floor for context)
Honestly even as a kid I always wondered why Sub Zero wasn't given some Characters to get from it too like Ice Bird or hell even characters like Chef Pig.
How do you have angry birds go
@@Rugby0nTop idk what part of my comment made you think I have the game (I do tho btw, this video has a link to 1.01 if you want a working pre-2.0 version th-cam.com/video/yoX78KB3zKQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zyfh5bh5LkuMQUY9 )
Ice bird makes too much sense to include but they didn’t feel like it.
Angry birds go 2.0 feels like drinking orange juice after brushing your teeth.
Damn, I just posted this. You didn’t need to click the video so fast 😂. (Thx anyways)
@@chrishy3981y, we all have experience, we don't need to watch the video to know how terrible 2.0 is😅(Don't even get me started on the game physics)
I played angry birds go in the wrong year man that's a shame
Use miswak bro, tooth paste is very unhealthy for teeth.
my guy at least toothpaste and orange juice is a minor annoyance
Fun fact: In 2.0, after you get all your tickets, select 'Retry with Boost' and you will get extra tickets. That's not all, though! Keep pressing 'Retry with Boost' after the extra races to get infinite tickets. The ads cause a major downside with it though.
Ah yes, I would do that in daily races. I’ve known about this glitch.
Oh yeah, I remember that!
I wish I had read this comment before I was already halfway through the game but at least I found this out before waiting 80000 years to beat the last 10 levels in the game
Let's just all agree that Angry Birds GO! 1.8.7 was the best version of Angry Birds GO!
Yup
Agreed
Anything before 2.0
Ayrton Senna :(
how can you get 1.8.7 today?
One part i really liked about the old version was the physics. The way the karts would react because of it. So when I was going fast like in stunt. it really sold it to me on how fast i was moving.
I remember this, and I got over 9,000 Gems from the game. This update was the most controversial for little kid me, and it still pains me to this day.
I agree. The way they botched this game is heartbreaking. 💔😢
What happened to the game, was a tragedy, I don't have to be millionaire.
@abneramaya1736 yes, but you can download an older version!
I remember loving Angry Birds Go when it was in it's pre 2.0 state. I had most of the Teleport when I first played the game(all I have of the Telepods are Hal, Matilda, Stella, and the Blue but I used to have a lot more that are probably in the depths of my sisters room)
Once I found out about the 2.0 update, I played it once and never touched it again until 2023
I'm sorry. OVER 9000!? IT WAS OVER 9000!?!?!?!
It's so annoying how everything got nerfed and simplified. I loved how much livelier the old version felt.
This is without a doubt one of the most interesting videos I've watched this year. I love pre-2.0 but to no one's surprise I hate 2.0 and above. It made me leave Angry Birds from 2017 - 2020, but I came back because of Angry Birds Reloaded in 2021 which was a fantastic game in my opinion.
Playing Pre-2.0 gave me memories that I will cherish forever. I was always excited to see which character I would beat next. I remember when I didn't know what to do and I racked up like a million coins and then when I finally figured out what to do I spent so much on upgrades. Even upgrading felt nice as it felt like putting money in a shelf to make your kart better. Also the multiplayer mode was interesting. For some reason there was a kart that costed 8 coins in an update which was interestiong. The treehouse was another amazing thing in this game. I remember when I ran out of energy I just watched the characters sleep to replenish their energy and it was really wholesome. Honestly I didn't really have a problem with the energy system because it gives you a reason to try out the other characters.
But now in 2.0, all that charm is thrown out the window. Upgrading is rigged and excessively complicated, the progression is made so linear, the energy system is shared so you're better off playing the Blues instead of Red and Forman Pig instead of Matilda since they're pretty much upgrades of the character they're better than. Multiplayer is gone, the treehouse, underground place with the karts and the wooden boards with the levels on them are gone and the menus look like they were made for a speedrunning contest to see who could make the menu the fastest.
That said, this video told me stuff I didn't know originally, like the bad drifting and inconsistent CC balance.
R.I.P Angry Birds Go Pre-2.0 (2013-2016)
So, basically, in a nutshell, 2.0 transformed the original ABGO, to a grindy game, into a P2W game.
If you want a better ABGO! then play ABGO!U
1:40 If they were going to make 2.0, they shouldve made it a sequal to angry birds go like angry birds go 2. It probaly wouldve made them more money and make fans less angry
In 1.0 the races were like at the same speed and some of them goes faster, the player goes faster, or even all the karts just crashes at each other. While in 2.0 we got nothing but ahead of them if we get high cc and if we get low cc, the karts and the bots goes so fast that you couldn’t beat it.
I remember re-downloading the app without knowing about 2.0 but having played it a couple years ago. I re-downloaded it in about 2017 and I just deleted it after an hour.
this "update" was more of a DOWNGRADE than anything
downdate
The bots use powers before 2.0
I’m glad that back then I wasn’t the only one who was upset by that update. The original angry birds go was my favourite mobile racing game back then, and for them to just change it was just…
I hate it how corporal pig has a cool down because in 1.0 using all 3 would make him like a speed up kart like chuck but unfortunately now in 2.0 we got a boring power up and a cool down from corporal pig.
Remember also when the birds and pigs were sleeping on a tree? Good times.
“Oooh I member” - The Grapes from South Park
And when the mechanic pig was still there? Good times as well
You forgot to mention the Senna bird who was based on a real F1 racer named Ayrton senna who drove the MP4/8. They got rid of him in 2.0
Oh yeah. Honestly I didn’t care too much about Senna bird, but it can be added to the list of things Rovio made but deleted in 2.0 for some reason.
@@chrishy3981 i just though I point that out just to show some respect for F1 drivers ;)
@@jaarryifleshblood315 Bros looking out for them. I respect it.
I literally related to EVERYTHING you said in this video, it's actually so awesome to know people still care about this game and feel the same about these sucky updates :)
Edit: To challenge myself I love to race using lower upgraded carts and still beating the bots. It's actually so fun when you actually manage to beat them.
Well jokes on you, I literally related to what you said. I would do that when I was playing the game.
I remember re-downloading Angry Birds go after getting a new phone , frustrated that I couldn't play the old version, not knowing that it was updated
Also another thing.
Why did they decide to put a 300cc limit to the karts
Before 2.0 the highest cc was 1410cc
Now the maximum is only 300cc
The one shot of Foreman with his mustache shaved is a perfect metaphor for what happened to this game.
I agree huge time! It completely ruined the game by being a pay to win, using blueprints to upgrade cars, and removes the multiplayer feature.
Therefore, 2.0 turned the best Angry Birds game into a pay to win nightmare.
I really hate how they removed multiplayer, and also, you missed one: when Chuck uses his power up, it will distort the music and it goes shorter than in pre 2.0. I also don’t like how the sounds and music get cut off. I really miss the old version.
Back in my 4th grade, my dad had a pissy fit and deleted all the games in my phone, including Angry Birds Go.
*Right before I managed to complete the game*
And when I re-downloaded the games, all of my progress are gone.
Bastard.
Claim his vessel
I have the perfect solution: play angry birds go with his car
How dare he delete a treasure
4:32 It also felt like a real race like actually beating them and now you just go faster and nothing to do and just beat it.
I Missed the ability to Pick and Choose what Missions you'd wanna do
and i love the challenges that came afterwards (i got to like Challenge sheet number 10 for Fruit Splat across all tracks)
then they turned into a Straight Path and removed the Choice
that was frustrating
Man I remember playing this as a kid and straight up dropping it after 2.0 since they just made it worse
i remember before the 2.0 update i managed to trick the game into giving me a paid cart for free! and then 2.0 got rid of it and i was crushed
11:15 actually I'm pretty sure ice bird was originally going to be unlockable there but it was scrapped
They could've added The ice bird and the blue version of Terrence (Tony, his cousin) in Subzero 😢
If the game was still being updated and doesn't used the 2.0 mechanics
Some new characters would be added
Chef pig: Heals the kart himself and gives a speed boost itself for 15 second
Lawyer pig: Mutes every bird or pig ability and makes him invulnerable for 7 seconds
Minion pig: Creates a clone of himself that will block any bird or pig that it's near him
Silver: Do a quick dash that will destroy anything that is on the way (birds and pigs will be knocked instantly out of the kart)
Melody (Secret code character): Sucks up to 4 birds or pigs while obstacles are inf, after that she spits the birds or the pigs at blazing speeds that will always hit a wall and be knocked out instantly off the kart
Mechanic pig: Can repair 5 times the kart itself while gaining invincibility, speed boost and also smacking 3 random birds or pigs in the race with a giant screwdriver
I wonder what will Leonard's ability be. Could the effect be like the squid in Mario Kart? 🤭
If v2.0 don't exist, None of those Crashy and Glitches Happened and Still Be at the App Store! v2.0 is BROKEN!!!
The part about the race being to unfair even if you’re 20cc off is so true! I was down by 1cc and the level was almost impossible.
This is why I stopped playing. I had a bunch of the toy cars and decided to start back playing and realized I no longer had the cars.
The 2.0 update came out about a day after I was finally able to finish the race against Hal after almost 2 weeks of failed attempts. You could imagine my deep frustration and unhappiness learning that all the dedication I put into the game was utterly wasted for a reboot that nobody wanted. Why remove each individual bird's stamina for a shared stamina meter to begin with?
I remember having my pre 2.0 and beating chuck, best feeing ever ngl. Will miss the goldfish State Farm and target powers 😔😔 nice video
Rovio never heard of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". I mean, all of their games get worse with updates
This game is a prime example that not EVERYTHING needs an update. I really hate how complicated they made the upgrade system be like
Man I guess they're trying to make sure Angry Birds doesn't get a good mainline/spin-off game *ever*
i genuinely miss the old version, i remember that there was a free chuck that you could get (i think?, i dont rember), i also remember being genuinely surprised(?) having the iron bolt and rocket racer (or whatever chuck's stunt kart is called), i even remember when my dad downloaded it in my 2nd oldest (i think?) tablet along with some other games, that i dont remember which (except despicable me minion rush) back in 2015
i re-downloaded it on my tablet to see how it was again, its absolutely horrible
i wish someone would re-upload the older versions (probably never happening lets be real)
whoever at rovio thought making angry birds go into this was a good idea, why???
(6 JAN 2024 EDIT)
so, i wanted to say (and fix) a bunch of stuff for this i guess
1. it's called "wall magnet", rocket racer is the one right before it
2. another thing i remember was me wasting 56 gems on somewhen near christmas 2015 to get high flyer
3. at the time i originally commented this i was unaware that sega bought angry birds, them bringing back pre 2.0 angry birds go would be cool
4. other than what i said on 3, there's a channel called "gamerbones" that has links to APKs of pre 2.0 angry birds go, i uninstalled the vesion i had on my tablet a bit after i made the original comment (since then i've had an im pretty sure 1.4.0 file on my tablet)
That Bird was Released in Honor of a Formula 1 Driver
@@Mr.Brothybear knowing how little i understood english back then (english is NOT my native language) i probably assumed it was some random gift from rovio instead, but its cool that they made a chuck reskin in honor of an F1 driver
AB Go 2.0 was such a long time ago that I don’t even remember the specifics anymore. I was pretty young back then
Finally someone said it, i fricking loved the old way you choose your karts and characters.
even without watching the video yet i fully agree with the title and stand by it
I remember searching for those Telepod things, never found one. But I did find a toy car, and figured it would work with a Telepod if I eventually found one. Never did, and donated the toy just recently.
I have 2 Telepods but I don't know where I put the base and back then my device camera didn't work properly so I never got to get their karts.
I remember playing pre 2.0 but not much 2.0. Granted, it was deleted from my mom’s phone but still. Man watching these old angry birds stuff makes me wish the games were still on the App Store
Damn. I remember back when this game first came out lmao. You got birds chillin' in the tree, an underground garage, and hell, you got the classic feel of what an Angry Birds game is supposed to be, but in kart form. Now, it's all about the money. I mean, it always has been, but noe the money part is slowly killing the franchise.
I'm so glad someone's talking about how Rovio butchered Angry Birds Go with v2.0. Even deleting my save file before delisting the game.
To make matters worse, they hadn't even taken advantage of the Nintendo Switch by releasing better sequels on it. Not even the OG Angry Birds game or Fruit Nibblers either.
just came from a sleep deprived podcast video and for a split second i thought apandah was talking
30:44
I actually did 3 star the Chuck level, along with the rest of the levels in the game before on a old iOS iPad that I used to use before it got broken.
I have a video of it here:
th-cam.com/video/egNxsQPcepk/w-d-xo.html
That’s really cool! Although if anyone else sees this comment, it would be cooler to see a video completing it in 3 stars. Still, good job though!
@@chrishy3981 Thanks.
Good Job, Dude.
@@ferringsylveon219 Thanks.
@@ianruiz09toxic
20:41 update, since I still have Angry Birds go on an old iPad, you don’t even get to use the cart anymore. It just sends you into a race.
i reinstalled angry birds go some days ago, and just played it cause i was bored
- the music stops in the middle of the race, bringing a depressive and hollow vibe
- the 3 stars animation is just a transition, it sucks
- the upgrade system consists of golden and steel parts
instead of coins and/or gems
- some things changed:
*every character has its own energy bar, so that you can play all of them, instead of 1 or 2 forever
*the birds go to the nest tree, its creative, cute to see them tired or sleeping, IT WAS GOOD
*when you go to the upgrade room, its under the ground, it has an elevator and it has a mechanic pig, another good and memorable thing
*the first time you play, it has this comics history of red joining the race
*you only got one generic energy bar
*the nest tree is gone
*upgrades were replaced to this stupid UI
*yeah, its gone too
seriously, HOW CAN YOU MAKE A GAME, THEN DO THIS?
rovio sucks
Rovio really thought they could get away with this update, I knew it was bad as soon as it updated all those years ago.
Whenever I say, "Traction" in the video, please replace it with, "Handling." I think that's a way better term.
so glad to know i'm not the only one who hates this update.
This contains a _slight_ bit of sarcasm in it, but I would gladly be a scriptwriter for any kinds of rant videos like this.
It still makes me very sad how the game turned out to be angry birds go was my all time favorite game back in the past back in my childhood I would play it for hours everyday but now they ruined the whole game forever 2.0 was literally the worst thing imaginable in all of angry birds in my opinion what they could of done was they could of kept the old version style and all of that and like kept adding more things to the game on that version not just completely ruin the game but yes R.I.P Angry Birds Go! The game will always be in my heart ill never forget it
I’m not gonna lie this was a bit difficult to read without periods
I remember the original
It was good, it was fine, it was grand. For a mobile game
Then years later i revisit it and i was mortified to what i returned to... it was awful. I didnt know that you lost all your progress too...
Funny thing is that you can drive backwards
I’m still upset on why they would removed multiplayer. Bruh
i have a few more rants about this game (sorry if they were already mentioned, i got impatient to finish the vid) but when i used to use the telepods before 2.0 it would give me actual kart like how the telepod looks, but in 2.0 it gives me the shitty downgraded version, the parts system would be the reason why i never could upgrade my karts most of the time, the music would randomly get muted during or before a race, and the kart parts used to fall off which was satisfying, EVEN ONE OF THE DEVELOPERS MADE A VIDEO TALKING ABOUT THE GAME WHILE IT WAS IN CONCEPT SAYING “when we saw the kart fall apart, we knew it felt right”
Tbh, i consider installing old version somewhere from the internet and uninstalling 2.0 immediately because i max-upgraded every car and it feels really boring now
Rovio try not to shoot yourself in your own foot challenge **impossible**
**GONE SEXUAL** (almost died)
I remember when game was perfect long before snowy map was added. feel like after that and any other update everything got worse and worse
Also in 2.0 chuck’s power breaks the game since the power is so op lol
the old power was fine and balanced imo the newer one is wayy too fast and really annoying to use and super glitchy
I remember this update taking out the telepods (basically angry bird's take on toys to life which was a popular genre), and I was kinda upset because I had a lot of them.
Yeah I have been trying to beat this version of the game for years now. It forces you to wait DAYS to do races that you can earn blueprints for to buy more cars. I’ve only made it past the blues, and that’s it. I JUST upgraded my car to 208CC… I need 228CC to beat the fruit level just to continue the game. I’m not spending money to progress in this game that 5 years ago I could have beaten in a week. I hate what Rovio did to this game and I wish there as a way to force iOS to have the older version of the game.
This game was literally a childhood fever dream for me but the most prominent memory for me is this update ruining the game.
I mean... 2.0, or any _.0 usually signifies something big coming to a game. This update was a revamp, a bad one at that, that has also TAKEN things you already had. So much cool stuff could have been added, like the ice bird, Stella birds, seasons or epic related content, new tracks maybe. AB has such a cool history that gets completely overlooked because of the match 3 and whatevers that the OG games got replaced with...
tbh 2.0 was fun, but when i saw the cars they are never been the same and alot change now i really miss 1.0, and also rip the blue hat pig ( you will be love)
i feel like a fly, and got bait by traps and it makes a foor to realize for myself
13:53 also this is what makes king pig’s ability useful in the game lol
I remembered this update I thought it was so bad I used a APK to downgrade it to v1.8.7 (because that's my favorite version)
how can you download the 1.8.7 version i updated my phone [samsung s21 plus] to the newest version and now i cant download the old versions of angry birds go, can you maybe help ?
@@Sleepyジ sorry for the late response but I use a APK (I recommend Uptodown)
Its actually so strange that they would decide to update the game despite knowing that the ability to download it would be taken away? I mean at least they still updated it to work with newer operating systems I guess? But they literally could of just kept the game in its previous state (bugs and all) while canning online servers while keeping micro transactions active (realistically that would be their priority). Sucks to see this happen and I feel for all the people that grew up on games with inaccessible older versions or online only games
I disagree, as I think they updated it without the intentions of shutting it down in the future. I simply think they just wanted to update the game to try to make it better, and that just didn’t happen.
11:49 apperently they wanted to add Ice bird, but he got scrapped apparently
The progression is really what did this version in for me. I hate it
If im being completely honest I started in 2.0 and i enjoyed it so much but the game does not exist on app store anymore but I respect your opinion
this is the update that made me stop playing games in the series. even the newer ones that were coming out at the time
I wish this game was still around
I was punching air when they got rid of the tree where the bird's and pig's rested (i thought the treehouse was cool)
(Also mechanic pig was removed around Halloween 2015, about 9 months before 2.0 released) also dont even get me started with angry birds transformers
didnt they remove the jenga from transformers
This overview of Angry Birds Go 2.0 perfectly described all my thoughts and feelings about it that some I didn't even know I had. Thanks
Great video and I can agree with most of these points. It’s so sad to see Angry Birds Go become so awful with the HORRIBLE difficulty and progression system, and upgrading karts is a lot more tedious and frustrating now. I really miss the good old days in the mid 2010s where I’d pick a bird from the tree to race with, then select an awesome kart, then proceed to the level selection. The upgrade system back then before 2.0 felt just right for me. I played this game a lot back then and I’m really gonna miss it. Shame on Rovio for being so dumb and ruining this nostalgic game.
FINALLY someone has spoken about this
*18:24** You know it’s bad when FGTeeV is ranting*
Thank god someone made a video about this I hate this 2.0 thing so much
They really did ruin all the game're personality and fun with this one. The upgrade parts sucked. The lack of the Tree was dumb, and they made you watch even more ads. And most importantly, you could no longer select mode on the track you wanted.
You know, Angry Birds Go 1.0 was available at one point in 2019 2020-ish i think.
There was this app made by Rovio which was cloud gaming on the phone called Hatch but closed down for some reason in 2021 (maybe cause noone really used it) and i was happy that old Angry Birds Go was back. But, it closed down like i said. I was very dissapointed. There were some changes, but it was fairly not much of a difference (except the removal of Senna Bird). I miss it.
And another thing that i hated in this update was, if you're in 2nd, racing with the boss, the boss wouln'd use any power ups on you, but when you're in 1st, it looks like it driked 30 energetic cans, waked up and started using it. Power ups from bomb, that coul'd be used on you when you're reaching him, is just used when you passed through him, is just anoying to me.
Good point.
They took away everything that was good and changed stuff to make it worse
I really liked angry birds go as a kid
It's depressing how they fucked it up
Hello, im a new subscriber, i really liked this video essay, you delivered quality content
Too informal for a video essay imo, but thank you so much.❤️
Reminds me what happened when fruit ninja updated on my grandpa's phone. I had so many blades, and I even King Dragon's blade and backround. And they updated and took everything. Even though I was a kid I stopped playing.
They should have taken "if it ain't broke don't fix it" seriously
yea ngl i dont remember 2.0 my memories of playing angry birds go are very vague now
To this day I still miss the original angry birds go. I've tried the current one many times and just can't get into it
Honestly just play any of the other updates that came before 2.0
I remember when I was 8 playing angry birds go on my grandma's iPad trying to beat king pig (I think) and then I update the game and everything was gone. I felt so sad after.
But I did eventually make it to the end in V2.0 and my friend couldn't beat Chuck and I beat it for him before ever doing it myself
I know not everyone owned them, but the fact that people like myself who had the telepods straight up lost the exclusive kart that goes with them in game. This was so BS. That was one of the main features of the telepod, they changed it to getting upgrade parts or something if I am remembering correctly.
The left and right flighing glitch is the biggest NON-Secret there is (I thought I found the biggest thing ever) . I’ve only played 2.0 but I always wanted 1.0 but ok ngl got 2.0 JUST BEFORE THEY GOT DISCONTINUED.
They ruined my favorite Game from the franchise, and then they put it out of it’s misery 😪
Look how they massacred my boy…
They bullied a dog, made it become vicious, then put it down.
PREACH BROTHER!!! All my progress, birds, karts, and tracks gone. And they made everything less fun and more convoluted. RIP pre update angry birds go. It was my most played game on my old kindle. Also, remember Senna Bird lol.
How to beat Angry Birds Go 2.0
Step 1 : Uninstall the game
